This bit is hilarious:

Ben Gvir used the opportunity to promote his efforts to make it easier for civilians to get a gun license, stressing "weapons save lives."

You did, by suggesting a ruling from a court is all that matters. We all know he did it, yet he was walked free. So using your logic he must be innocent.

You can use all the deflections you want but everyone and their dog know it's only a matter a time before this is officially and widely considered a genocide. You and israel are just hoping that happens after the genocide is actually complete and they get all the land they want.

Outside of warped pro Israeli circles I think we're pretty much already there on the widely considered part.
 


I think this interview will cause some storm in the media. Specifically the bit about Hamas.
 
Incredible that most of the propaganda by the zionist regime is to justify starving and murdering children.

You would think that should give its supporters a pause but no.

I think they rejected it because they already in two days time are going to decide on the existing measures.

Different case.

They declined because the initial measures should be enough to stop the killing. They are also another useless UN organization playing politics and doesn't care much for human loss.

- NYT journalist: "Really? I sense a lack of political correctness."

I know that clip. It's quite something how honest these settlers are. It's from this NYTimes piece.

 


I remember in the days after Oct 7, the debate going something like :
"these animals kill children unlike us!"
"actually you kill many more"
"well, that's from bombing, not face to face, that's different, not intentional, not celebrated".

Imagine how sick you would have.to be to do shit like that? Also, I remember when American and UK soldiers have faced punishment for things not too dissimilar. These monsters do this with impunity.

Thanks for the link.

They're honest because they truly believe in their (racial) superiority and a god given right to own the land. Therefore they don't see their actions as inherently reprehensible. I ain't even mad at her.

Absolutely nothing new under the sun, it's the mindset that naturally finds its way and grows in a colonial society, especially when mixed with a healthy dose of religious fanatism. History is littered with similar examples. In the video, they follow up with clips of Afrikaaners who reason along the same lines.

What makes my blood boil, is the absolute lack of pushback and repercussion. People lost their jobs because they advocated for a Palestinian state and this fascist gets a "Yo, this ain't politically correct".

Macron says recognizing a Palestinian state is not a taboo for France
‘’Recognizing a Palestinian state is not a taboo for France,’’ Macron said Friday at a meeting in Paris with Jordan’s King Abdullah. ‘’We owe it to Palestinians, whose aspirations have been trampled on for too long. We owe it to Israelis, who lived through the worst antisemitic massacre of our time. We owe it to a region that is seeking to rise above those who promote chaos and seed revenge.’’

One other problem is that there's a big audience for this type of stuff.



This account and the one in berbatrick's tweet have posted hundreds of videos like this uploaded by those soldiers. They wouldn't have done so if there was no huge demand for this.

Not that it makes much difference but Jenin is in the West Bank.

Were American or UK soldiers ever accused of sniping children?
Click to expand...

They have been accused of killing children in the past, as well as torture, murder of unarmed combatants, taking humiliating pictures of enemy soldiers and sharing them, including pissing on them, also sharing pictures of dead bodies etc....

Although my point was more that when these things were made public those involved were usually tried and convicted. The cases I was thinking of were the humiliating pictures and pictures of dead enemy fighters being shared and the resulting outrage in the press and public and then the punishment afterwards. That's what was in the post I was replying to. However the IDF soldiers post these daily and face no consequences whatsoever.

Not quite sure where you were going with the dead children reply and making a leap and comparison that wasn't there or implied.
