I don't see how that addresses the comment at all. You appear to be saying that Israel is correct for having different moral standards. That does not seem to address the conflict in the comment above

No, I am not saying that Israel is correct or not because the morality here is completely subjective. There is no correct and there is no incorrect.
Israel’s different moral standards are a reasonable human response for THEM because of the history of genocide attempted on the Jewish people and the present day threats of genocide that are still being made against them.
So in that sense, I believe they do have a probable similar moral standard as the average man on the street, because the average man on the street would likely take any step necessary and within their means to prevent a genocide from being committed against them, especially if an attempted genocide just recently happened to them.
