The only way you can be “Israeli” and not be complicit in genocide is if you are a minor who does not have the agency to leave occupied Palestine, but does have the will to. It is not possible to live in an ethnostate of your own free will without supporting its inherent genocidal nature.
I mean I’m sure there are those who were born there without the means to get a passport elsewhere. But it’s probably a minority, and of those a very small minority that aren’t ideologically aligned with the regime.
I hear where you’re coming from with this, I also can’t help hear it as similar to “well not all men!” which, I think most rational people recognize is true. By far and on average it is safe to say “all”.
Just like when I teach people about snake bites, you should treat "every bite as it were venomus. It is true not every snake bite is - but is it worth risking death not taking the precaution?
I think it is important to disentangle the people from the state as it does seem like a fast slide into fully anti-Judaic mindsets when it should be fully anti-Zionist / anti-Occupier Israel.

A recent poll showed that a majority of young Israelis (18-21) are right leaning, more religious and more conservative

You would have defended Nazi Germany
Being a Zionist is not a culture.
Sure it is. But think “petri dish”.
Zionism is a disease. That’s certainly not the way apologists mean it when they call it a “culture” though.

If they’re not Zionists they can leave the Zionist entity.

Shitlibs love appealing to “complexity!” to defend their genocidal ethnostate.
From the US: I’d like to just gtfo too but it’s easier said than done. But yeah I’m looking into it
