I mean condemnation is a great start, but Israel isn't going to stop killing Palestinians until they're stopped, or there's no Palestinians left to kill.
Their rhetoric has made it clear that killing civilians isn't an unfortunate consequence of stopping Hamas - it's the objective, and they propped up Hamas over the PLO to create the pretext for this.
They taking the USA's Native Americans approach after the apartheid South African government approach. Didn't yield what they wanted.
I mean, they call the Israelis that are taking land in the West Bank 'settlers'. It's colonial language that is explicitly meant to designate the Palestinians as 'natives' that need to be conquered. Similar to the 'settling' of the Americas or Australia, the people that were already there don't count, don't have rights and are basically a nuisance.
In the case of Australia, it was arguably a bit worse than that - the legal "terra nullius" justification translates to "nobody's land". At best, it said that there was no civilisation here - in reality, the general consensus seems to have been closer to "they're just animals". The way they were treated did nothing to suggest otherwise.
Israel is treating Palestine as terra nullus as well. You can just waltz in, take someone's house, and the IDF will defend you. And it's not like the courts are an option for recourse either.
Sounds like they're killing a bunch of innocent civilians like Nazis did.
Welcome to Palestine.
No, it doesn't sound like that at all, it is that. And Zionism is the "chosen people" so you are correct, just a twist on the "master race" for 2023.
Just in case anybody thinking Israel actually cares about civilians.
If there was ever a time that a person or nation took the sympathy of the world, and twisted it into action against them it is this. Israel can go fuck off now, as a previous Israel supporter I do not anymore.
It's in the fine print when you sign the waiver to be filmed that they're going to shoot you right after. You have to read those things closely.
Well, if it has been strongly condemned, surely the IDF will have learned its lesson now.
Shit like this is why I'll never condemn the joint forces fighting for Palestine's survival. At some point, somebody's gonna get their lick back-- and Palestine deserves to get its lick back. This is the perfect reason for any (unlikely) un-radicalized Palestinians to enact 'eye for an eye' policies because of. Would that my community had that same kind of collective backbone.
They did not 'execute' him. We use a different word when soldiers illegally kill non-combatants in a safe zone.
Safe zone, kill zone.
I can only imagine the future where some guy with special goggles that highlights people in the kill zone and automatically colours over their faces to make it easier to pull the trigger.
Not a peep of this on reddit...
That site is purely for nation-states these days. Just paid shills arguing with other paid shills with biased mods getting to dictate who gets to say what. Lol.
"Strongly condemned" where is that on a scale from 0 to 10 where 10 is stopping the action being condemned and 0 doing nothing? Is that a 2 or maybe 3?
0 pay them to do it
1 ask them to do it
2 thoughts & prayers
3 doing nothing
4 weakly discourage
5 strongly condemned
6 strongly worded letter
7 tariffs
8 embargo
9 invade
10 nuclear first strike
If you're human, Israel is your enemy
