The world would 100% be a better place without Israel, and that’s nothing to do with their religion.

The world would also be a better place without Islam, but how realistic or ethical is it to seriously call for such a thing?

You can say "the world would be better without Israel" without actually calling for the eradication of the country. I think creating Israel was a historical mistake, but that doesn't make it a mistake you can just paint over. Solutions must come from acknowledging the current reality and the innocent people who live at both sides of the border and their rights and dignity.

As I can also say that the world would be better without Islam without actually calling for anyone's death. All worshippers of that religion should simply become apostates and no-one would needlessly die. But it's another thing to force this against their will, which you would be doing in both cases.
