He doesn't want to say Israel, because people conflate Israel with Judaism. He's also making the focus a singular discreet and addressable issue, without bringing up the fact that the formation of the state of Israel has been a problem since the Nakba.

He's not saying Israel because he's a liberal Zionist, and liberal Zionists are currently hell bent on scapegoating Netanyahu as some weird outlier who is solely responsible for all of the evil Israel is doing.
