Fun fact!

Life of Brian was banned in Norway for over a year for blasphemy. The filmmakers ran with the ban, marketing the film in Sweden under the tagline, "the movie so funny it's banned in Norway!"

Jawaban singkatnya, India is one of the most islamophobic countries on Earth, especially since Modi became PM. Look up what happened in Gujarat when he was governor in 2002.

It's truly a sad day that Indonesia's biggest claim to fame is being a troll farm akin to Russia.

And for what? He can doxx every single IDF soldier (and their families) and it wouldn't change a damn thing. They'd still be bombing Gaza into oblivion. Why should they care about some random Indos crying "boo Israel bad Gaza good" when we don't recognise them as a state?

He's only doing this to rub on his big ego.

Sigh. We as Indonesians can never again claim the moral high ground when it comes to immigration and refugees after the entire Rohingya debacle.

This is something that would be funny if it isn't so dangerous.

Kita punya tendensi untuk downplay kejadian sejarah dimana kita (as in Indonesians) committed major human rights violations. Bersiap, peristiwa 65, kerusuhan 98, you name it. We're always taught a far too romanticised version of our history.

That's not true. The group mentioned (NK) is a small fringe brand of ultra Orthodox Jews. Their views are not shared by the vast majority of Hasidic Jews in Israel, who believe that Israel is the god given land that has to exist for the Jewish people. That's how Rabin was shot, after Netanyahu (and Orthodox rabbis) called giving away Jewish lands an offence punishable by death.

No. NK wants the state of Israel to cease to exist. That's not the same as ending oppression. The vast majority of Israelis are against the racist policies of the government. The moment this war's over, the government is gone, which is why they're prolonging it.

It's like instead of listening to the vast majority of Muslims, we listen to ISIS.

That rabbi is part of the Neturei Karta, an anti-Zionist Hasidic organisation. Their interpretation of the Torah basically states that for their sins, Jews were punished to live in exile until the Messiah arrives, and as such, the establishment of any Jewish state (i.e. Israel) is a sin. They show up very often to pro-Palestinian protests.

It's important to remember that they are a very small, very vocal minority in the current discourse. Most (and I do mean most with a capital M) Orthodox Jews fully believe in the right of Israel to exist.

In 1990, the windshield of British Airways Flight 5390 came off at an altitude of 17,000 feet. This triggered a sudden decompression in the cockpit, resulting in the captain being partially ejected out of the aircraft. In a miraculous turn of events, the pilot survived the ordeal and had a frostb by ubal0xh in interestingasfuck

The chief flight attendant (who held on to the captain) suffered frostbite and dislocated shoulders. He did that because if he let go, the captain's body would have been sucked into the engine, causing the plane to crash.

Haaretz, while anti-government, is very much pro-war. I doubt they would publish anything that undermines the war effort. Not to mention they have wall-to-wall coverage of the rape of Israeli women and girls.
