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.

I genuinely thought this was hyperbolic satire.

      Israel isnt Jewish. They’re Zionist.

      The majority of Jews in the world have not forgotten and are anti-zionist

      There is no such thing as a “Jew memory” shared by all Jews.

      The individuals doing this shit certainly heard the stories as that stuff is constantly repeated and part of the national identity in Israel, but they didn’t feel the suffering and in fact most of them don’t even come from families which suffered in the Holocaust as most Israelis are not from families that came from Western Europe.

      Even when people felt the horror by being on the other side, they need to actually be able to empathise with their victims to not want to inflict that same horror on them: in other words they need to not be sociopaths or psychopaths and to see those victims as fellow human beings. Notice how in Israel, just like in Nazi Germany, the targetted ethnicity are constantly dehumanized with extreme racist statements about them, to the point that Palestinians in Israel are called “human animals” similarly to how Jews in Nazi Germany were “untermenschen” (sub-humans).

      With a population of people were 99.999% did not in fact suffer anything in the Holocaust (there is literally only a handful of people in Israel who were alive back then, living in Western Europe and who were caught by it), with an actual constitution stating the superiority of their race (literally “the chosen people”) and enshrining discriminatory treatment on race (the Israeli constitution says that only Jews can be Israeli Nationals), under constant extreme racist propaganda in most of the Press and in statements from politicians very literally dehumanizing the ethnicity they’re targetting (“human animals”) and with sociopaths and psychopaths not just part of the highest levels of government and the military but in general being given free reign to execute their most violent fantasies with no pushback as long as it’s against the “lesser” races, this kind of shit is not just unsurprising, it’s innevitable.

        Not all Jews are Nazis but the whole state of Israel could be compared to fascist Germany. This is a neo liberal take the humanizes the oppressor. This is why I don’t bat a eye when the Palestinians went full on Nat Turner

        More than half the Israeli people actively support the state. There were more protestors against the rule change that would’ve stopped rape as being used against prisoners than there have been against the genocide.

        The Israeli people, at the very least, are Nazi civilians. I’m sure there’s a few good ones in there. Hopefully they find a country to live in that doesn’t require genocide to function.

        The Israeli people have either been supportive of the regime, or just too milktose to do anything about it.

        We’re long past benefit of the doubt.
