Soldiers put an explosive cord around the man’s neck and forced him to scout buildings for eight hours. After his release, another division shot him dead.
Congrats; Israelis are now tied with Americans as being the most despised people on the entire planet.
Remember this and the many other examples when they try to call themselves “the most moral army in the world”.
at this point they can’t even claim moral superiority over Nazis let alone a world wide rank.
Moral and army are two words that by definition cannot go together, just pretty tokens for Israelis to feel good about their service.
This news article is both disturbing and interesting. The people that alerted the news agency about the event are soldiers that were there. The only other witnesses are dead.
It means there is a conflict of values inside IDF.
I would hazzard a guess that their commander ordered it and is part of the religous-Zionism movement. It’s a newish subset of zionism that is very similar to Nazism. Only difference is who they want to kill (the list also includes non-religous Jews).
This stuff is hardly new. There is testimonies of former Israeli soldiers from 30 and 40 years ago, where they talked about randomly murdering Civilians or beating children into disability for fun and to normalize the dehumanization and annihilation of Palestinians.
It was actively encouraged by leading officers to commit such atrocities, so that the lower ranks are eased into it and can say they were merely following the example of leading officers w.o. there being a paper trail of formal commands.
Zionism has been a Fascist movement for many decades.
Explosives around necks and executions…
What group does that remind me off…
As someone who lives in Occupied Palestine, im not surprised. The IOF is a cruel genocidal military and the occupation government that backs them are just as bad.
Fucking war criminals
This is why you never cooperate.
Well, they are getting us used to tolerating mass genocide
0 surprise
So… Just point or clarity… They used him as a human shield then killed him because he survived being a human shield or did being a human shield kill him but later?
The group that used him as a human shield didn’t kill him directly. They sent him and his wife south, because the area they were found in was considered evacuated.
When an area is considered evacuated every non-IDF person is shot on sight. They knew it, and “forgot” to update over the radio about the elderly couple that will pass through. So the next group of soldiers shot them on sight.

So you recognize Palestine as a country
Yes.
What does its territory entail? The West Bank currently occupied by Israel perhaps?
Dont know. Whatever you like mate.
There is no debate here as I can’t talk about it, if you want debate go to Reddit.
Mods will delete any answer that goes against what they will allow you to say, so stop trying to have a debate.Interesting. Have you considered going to Reddit where you are allowed to speak freely? What is preventing you from going to that platform which aligns with your views on genocide?

Oh yes, the people calling for the death of an entire country are always written down in history as the good guys 🙃
Wow, you’re really contributing to the conversation here.
There can be no conversation when mods control what I can write to the degree that is happening here. This is not even what I believe, but it is the closest to what I believe I can write.
I would never believe that any country should be deleted.
What I believe was deleted by the mods because it talked about blaming the responsible ones, for me what I wrote here is much more extreme but I don’t make the rules I just follow them.
Edit: the mod deleted it even if they they said those word were okay, I used the exact same words they did, the guys just can’t take what they diss out, what a joke they are, they should be embarrassed by themselves.

I thought that 972 is an Israeli magazine, would love if you could give sources for your claim.
“Islamic extremist”? This magazine was founded and is currently operated by Israeli jews. What are you on about?
are you sure you are not the trust worthy source?

A genocide is not an appropriate response.
I did not write that, I can’t answer as i will be deleted by mods, but i did not write anything like that at all.
And WOW mods really delete replies that don’t condemn Isreal, worrying and totally unacceptable and untenable way to run this, how frivolous it is.
good luck with that.
Who want to be a part of that.Could you perhaps link to the modlogs? I would do it myself but I’m on mobile and am having connection issues.
EDIT: I apperently commented 4 times despite the app saying there was an error posting.
Anyway here’s the link to the modlog and part of the comment:…if anyone attacked my country as Palenstine did Isreal i would not be happy until all the hostages was freed and the ones responsible was dead.
I can see where @jordanlund@lemmy.world was coming from if you interpret “the ones responsible” as all Palestinians it certainly sounds like genocide, however I think you were probably referring to Hamas.
It was less “the ones responsible” and more “appropriate response”.
The appropriate response to 1,200 deaths is not to kill between 50,000 and 70,000 innocent civilians and state on multiple occasions “there are no innocent Palestinians”.
You don’t respond to war crimes with even bigger war crimes.
Yeah, good point. I focused too much on the last part.

Been considering a new name for the 1 state solution that merges both Gaza and Israel into a working 1 state solution. Fantastica was my initial thought, kinda gives a middle finger while being a nice reference to the fact anyone murdering children for any reason are living in a fantasy world with real world repercussions like Fantastica in The Never Ending Story, book not movie, movies got nostalgia on it’s side but the book is a lot better, even though it was originally a young adult novel, I read it about 9yo, and liked it so much it’s still one of my favorite books 30ish yrs later… But if not Fantastica, maybe New Manhattan, or New Juneau, new Alaska, gotta be something that shatters their belief the land is holy. Fertile, sure, holy… Well it is holey where they keep detonating. But if all it takes is “talking to god”, fine, I talked to god, they busy, that land is as holy and sacred as the current inhabitants see the life of people they view as less than them. So Israel is gonna need to be leveled, for something useful like a giant pyre of holy texts, Gaza too, what’s good for the goose is good for the gander. To quote Borat: " your opinion is no require."
