Can you give us examples of people making this claim?
What I have seen is claims that Israel is currently perpetrating evil that is comparable with other, older evils. And that it is engaged in a genocide, which is enough all by itself. There are no “better” or “worse” genocides and it’s frankly weird to even talk of it in those terms.
israel as the most evil country that's ever existed; indescribably worse than other, older settler colonial states, engaged in a genocide uniquely bad and worse than all other genocides ever;
