Israel/Palestine thread

Black rapper spends years spouting anti-White rhetoric and ends up performing at Glastonbury.

Spends thirty seconds promoting an antisemitic chant and has all of his concerts cancelled on two continents.

Maybe Jews are just better at advocating for themselves.

Also did he ever do chants that were illegal against whites?

they keep telling us that criticism of an army that is massacring babies by the boatload is antisemitic. that it is "hatred of the Jews". how many people will believe them?

Criticism of the army is fine. No one is getting arrested for that. Even calling them disgusting baby killing genociders doesn’t violate any laws of that country. It’s calling for the death or the IDF which may potentially be illegal.

FWIW, they also arrested people for stirring up hatred against Muslims. England is not a big free speech country.

damn, you hate to see it

ya totally shocking that people see beheaded babies and civilians all over twitter and decide they dont support it and in fact hate the army perpetrating it.

Can't defend such actions.

The only valid reason given to me is that hamas operatives try to take charge of the aid.

I find that hard to believe as the MAG are calling for an investigation into possible war crimes. To clarify, the mere fact that they are belies the spiel of vic, jal, bill et al re Evil Israel, but again I find it difficult to believe that they're firing on Hamas operatives in this regard.

There mere fact that there are investigations into possible war crimes belies the claims of the posters I list, who have been saying this for a long time, unlike I, who have been consistently in war crime denial mode.

CV logic.

I agree with the BBC when they post anti-Gazan stories straight from the mouth of the Israeli government (or IDF) but when they post

I will not tolerate such bias!

Has an Israeli soldier ever been convicted for following a direct order?

here ya go

these guys got short prison sentences for gang rape and murder.

kinda makes you wonder where the Israelis get these lurid fantasies of gang rape then murder for Oct 7th.

theres also this guy but supposedly he wasnt actually ordered to do this. no problem, do some mass murder and get a year in prison.

oh and btw the monument to this massacre was ofc defaced with religious symbols during the recent IDF murder spree in Lebanon.

Assuming they were given direct orders and not acting individually, they may well be, if the MAG investigation goes ahead, depending on its conclusions.

You don't think it's a powerful propaganda apparatus? Imagine another US-backed country trying to get away with what we've seen over the past few months.

Sure, other US-backed countries didn't start by taking the land of 100,000s of people, so they aren't facing permanent problems with aggressive refugees, but this just brings up the question that resistance forces want to enter the cultural consciousness... namely, is there a point to Israel existing if it means an eternity of funding and US-backed oppression?

If you are a Bible thumper and you think the US government is doing God's will, then it's an easy yes, but for secular thinkers who tend to view the Israeli experiment as restitution for what happened to the Jewish people in WW2, the argument has lost a lot of its power.

Qatar got away with worse and for longer (it finances Hamas you know)

I don't think many non-partisan observers view 10/7 as worse than the 20 months of Israeli actions post-10/7 at this point. The civilian kill count alone is a massive disparity, let alone the hunger games tactics and shameless harnessing of the US taxpayer to fund it all.

Your point about the Qataris is one of the few edges the resistance forces have. To the vast majority of third worlders, Qatar looks like the good guy for funding Hamas, whereas for Westerners, a much smaller subset views the US as the good guy for funding Israel, and that subset is shrinking by the day.

Qatar is literally an ally of the USA and Israel. They support the largest US air base on the Middle East.

I don’t really understand what you mean. Countries do horrible things all the time. TBH most countries in the region that have done comparable things rarely get much coverage, and they “get away” with it quite frequently.

Pat Buchanan said it best over thirty years ago. And it's still true today:

The U. S. Congress is Israeli-Occupied Territory.

You run outa gays to condemn, so this is your new thing?

Yes, I am condemning our congress for basically doing whatever Israel wants us to do.

AIPAC gives millions and millions of dollars to members of both parties to make sure that we do whatever Israel wants.

Even a former Israeli PM has condemned Israel for committing genocide!

And I condemn myself for supporting a President who is in the hip-pocket of the Israeli government.

You should move to Yemen or Iran. Their cultures and politics seem much more aligned with your own, and they dont take a penny from AIPAC or take any orders from the Israeli govt.

Lmao you think the Middle East would look the way it currently does if the USA really did everything Israel wants? Lunacy or pure stupidity. Either way get off YouTube and form your own opinion.

What does this have to do with Israel committing war crimes?

I don't really agree with "America: love it or leave it" type arguments as you're using above.

Your post is ridiculous.
