I genuinely thought this was hyperbolic satire.
EDIT: Outlet has edited headline since time of posting.
Oh how I long for the sweet bitter taste of ironic onion.
But nope. Way to much actual meat and gristle in this story.
Fuck these people who keep thinking the suffering of others is good for internet engagement.This is nanking tier shit.
My Lai, except the thought police are already rolled out, and ready to prosecute/persecute anyone who complains.
that’s a weird way to spell “israeli soldiers commit a war crime”
Yet another one
Ethnic Genocide is now fully Normalized in Israel.
In some ways this is actually beyond Nazi Germany, were the actual perpetrators of the genocide did not make a public show of their murdering of the people they saw as untermenschen.
This kind of thing is a pretty good indication that there is far broader acceptance (glee, even) amongst the Israeli population for Genocide than there was amongst the German population in Nazi Germany.
I wonder what if nazi germany had access to social media, recommendation algorithms, bots, etc… influencing masses has never been this easy in history
From what I’ve heard the extreme racism is generalized in the Mainstream Press in Israel, so I’m not sure that it’s the Social Media that’s making Genocide along ethnic lines be more broadly accepted there than it was in Nazi Germany.
That said, the fables in Israel around “The Jewish People” and its identity with the Palestinians as “antagonists”, have been spun for far longer and the antagonism has been going on for far longer (since the creation of the state of Israel) than the ones in Nazi Germany with Jews as “antagonist”, so maybe the much longer time (about 70 years) during which Israelis have been indoctrinated about their own ethnic superiority and the “antagonism” of Palestinians in Israel compared to the length of the similar indoctrination of the population in Nazi Germany, is the main cause for the more broad acceptance of Genocide amongst the populus in Israel than in Nazi Germany.
If you’ve grown up hearing about how you’re part of a superior people (“God’s chosen people”) and Palestinians are The Enemy who hate you and want you dead, and your parents too grew up like that, you’re probably far, far, more likely to be an extreme racist that trully believes themselves to be inherently superior and that Palestinians as not really human like themselves - hence having zero empathy for the suffering of Palestinians and maybe even relishing in it - than somebody who has only been exposed to similar shit for a decade or two.
Aw! It’s Satan gray! No wait, its pure evil blue, its a trump!. Nah! If you look closely you’ll notice all the buildings belonged to poor defenseless people. So it’s probably a rich evil asshole!
Please fix the title.
Fucking Animals
Israeli soldiers blow up building in Gaza and laugh about ‘gender reveal’ ‘It’s a boy!’ Israeli soldiers have filmed themselves blowing up a building in Gaza while laughing that the blue smoke resembles a ‘gender reveal’.
Fuck israël ans fuck IDF
Well was it a boy or a girl?
It was a piglet.
Worst gender reveal party ever.
Ok, so that was horrifying that they treated it so lightly, but this headline seems slightly inaccurate.
It seems they were not blowing it up for a ‘gender reveal’, but instead were blowing it up otherwise and something in the building produced blue smoke, and they found the resemblence hilarious.
OK, that’s somewhat callous, but I think almost any nation’s soldiers would make that same joke.
Al Jazeera must have updated/corrected it. The title of the post was the original headline.
That’s not a good look for Al Jazeera.
Al Jazeera is always extremely anti Israel. The Arabic version even more so than the English one.
You’d have to be an asshole not oppose country based on settler-colonialism and ethnic cleansing
You’d have to be an asshole not oppose country based on settler-colonialism and ethnic cleansing
…and yet, being anti-Israel was considered a far-right neo-Nazi position not that long ago. It became acceptable again from the start of the current flare up (the current fighting isn’t something new, it’s been going on and off for decades). Before that, anti-Israel meant anti-Jew meant obviously Nazi. It’s wild how when things change so many people will just quietly drop the old narrative and pretend it never existed. We’ve always been at war with Eurasia and all that.
The reality is that the US supports Israel, has for a long time and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. It’s not because of being pro-Jew or wanting to ethnically cleanse Arabs, it’s because they’re our only real ally in the Middle East and thus we’ll remain safely on their good side unless and until we get a strategically more useful ally in the Middle East. Then keeping them happy becomes less important.
Jews have opposed Israel since before 1948. Its always been a progressive position since Hertzel
That’s like saying science is anti-conservative
Well, you can check it yourself. Go to Arabic Al Jazeera and use machine translation and compare it to the English version. Then compare the article to the same topic on the BBC and Times of Israel. Compare and contrast.
Al Jazeera is Qatari state media. There’s no press freedom in that authoritarian kingdom.
You’d expect them to be factually accurate though.
Fuck Israel.
Man I must’ve really hit my head when I fell the other day because I thought that headline said Israeli soldiers blew up a building in Gaza as a gender reveal.
It sounds like Al Jazeera changed the headline to be a bit more honest.
Remember to keep sending them your tax money. They’re fighting terrorists. Totally…
