Israel to World: "Suck It."

mowing 250 people down at a music festival is some pretty sick shit though, huh? 2000 years of history notwithstanding.

"British" of course a synonym of "white" and impossible that anyone British could belong to an oppressed minority. Good work vhs.

and some of you are literally refusing a people’s right to self determination.

could've just gone with "oh yeah, shouldn't have assumed this person is white" but you do you

No one is cheering on that Scott. Just made up people in VHS' head xp

I mean Israel have forcibly taken that land and are running a rave on it. They couldn't even provide security. Failed state.

i was the under impression the person was from south america, so unless he is a native south american i don’t really care, especially since the person has yet to comdenm attacks on jewish civilians, refuted our link to our homeland, and played half the scale of antisemitic tropes.

doesn't excuse murder. mass murder. x-post

Plenty of people were cheering in the streets and in my hometown, the pro-palestinian movement called for a celebration for ‘this heroic attack’.

i definitely have heard this from muslims. not that israelis should die. but that EVERY jew on earth should die.

dude I've heard some opinions from "Christians" that may shock you

did you know what i learned? there are more Palestinians in Chile than there are in Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, or Egypt. #themoreyouknow

"dude I've heard some opinions from "Christians" that may shock you"

that they think all the jews in the world should die? no, i've heard that too.

scott, tbf, you don’t know what the fuck you’re talking about and are engaging in deeply Islamophobic and racialised tropes right now

i wasn't raised tribally. my family weren't christians. we worshipped jazz. its ALL friggin' scary to me. don't get me wrong. doesn't matter what large cult it is.

Who is doing that? I haven't condemned it. Doesn't mean I condone it. Similarly you haven't said anything about Gaza but I am sure you don't agree with putting two million dispossessed people in a concentration camp.

don't worry, i'm leaving. just checking the thread out. sorry i did. i don't hate anyone. or any group.

just saw on the news there will be a "complete siege" on gaza. sorry for everyone.

I am sorry too. Take care, Scott

likewise scott— sorry to get so aggro, am just frustrated.

otm re scary jazz tho

i was the under impression the person was from south america

If anything an even more worthless metric by which to judge a person's ethnicity and exposure to discrimination than "well he's british".

He love the British. Our PM is pledging more weapons rn. Can't wait to arm them even more.

Didn’t prevent him questioning if 700 civilians murdered belonged to where they lived, regardless of the exposure to discrimination it has not transformed into empathy.

Imagine if those people weren’t citizens of a state that enforces apartheid violence as a means of continuously justifying its own existence. Their deaths are on the hands of the very state to which they belong.

Cool another justification.

You sound like trigger happy israeli soldiers.

lol dude you're the one who brought up his background to try to score cheap points, if it doesn't matter you shouldn't have brought it up.

Maybe the family of a few of the murdered moved there in the year 1000, or something.

yes continue defending an antisemite who is doubling down on showing zero empathy to victims of a
terrorist attack.

Do you guys were also cheering the murders in the Bataclan? French teenagers had it coming!

would be cool if just once discussion of this situation didn’t turn into an ad hominem olympics

go start another thread where you can shout at each other please

people are dying, good lord

I'm Oglala. I'm pretty sure if me and a bunch of my family went and murdered a bunch of random white guys in south dakota because they 'were on land that they stole from us 100 years ago' I would not have a shit ton of people rallying for my defence. or maybe I would? maybe I should go do that then.

“Right to self determination” is a lofty phrase that tries to paper over a lot of nasty shit that it entails. Particularly when your right involves kicking people out of their homes.

“The hill has been transformed into something that most closely resembles the front row of a reality war theater. It offers a direct view of the densely populated Gaza Strip. People have dragged camping chairs and sofas to the top of the hill. Several sit with crackling bags of popcorn, while others smoke hookahs and talk cheerfully.”

When the bombs find their targets, Mr. Krak reported, "cheers break out on the hill, followed by a solid applause."

for context https://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4605408,00.html

The conflict between Israel and Hamas-led Gaza militants, which ended on August 26, killed nearly 2,200 Palestinians, most of them civilians, and 73 people on the Israeli side, mostly soldiers.

By this I mean there is plenty of ammunition from both sides to use this kind of rhetoric to dismiss the needs to recognise the basic human rights of civilians.

The only focus worth addressing is the presiding systematic brutality enacted on a captive civilian population. There is literally no way to end this violence without ending this, regardless of how you judge the perpetrators of individual acts.

When the bombs find their targets, Mr. Krak reported, "cheers break out on the hill, followed by a solid applause."

Barbarism.

Sure sounds like a place to visit.

i've never heard jews preach that every muslim should die

Today I watched my colleague in Gaza be questioned by a Journalist about whether he condemns the killing of civilians, while he & his family took shelter from Israeli bombs after being forced to evacuate from their home. Truly unbelievable.

Have never liked or used Zionist in that sense and am uncomfortable with it as a pejorative tbh.

here's a report of the massacre at the music festival: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-67047034

Palestine is voting for an exit from the EU:

The EU said it was immediately suspending part of its aid to Palestinians and putting its programmes under review, as EU foreign ministers are expected to meet tomorrow to determine what actions should be taken.

“As the biggest donor of the Palestinians, the European Commission is putting its full development portfolio under review, worth a total of €691m,” EU commissioner Oliver Varhelyi tweeted on Monday.

The announcement came after EU officials said no European Commission money went to Hamas-run projects and it has not had dialogue with Hamas since 2007. The EU considers Hamas a terror group.

Germany and Austria have also announced similar measures.

Hamas says it will begin executing hostages if Israel does not stop its bombardment of Gaza. The group is believed to have approximately 130 captured from its incursion into Israeli-held territory. pic.twitter.com/FaGZjqAdMi

The Rafah corridor is hit. So it may be Israeli policy to deprive 2.3 million people of food and water.

This is a war crime under Additional Protocol 1 of the Geneva Conventions. Israel is not party to it; the U.S. has signed but not ratified. Nearly every other state has. https://t.co/Vcd58FuVPp pic.twitter.com/NRfU6tHtaD
