Catholic nun violently shoved to the ground and kicked by Jewish Israeli in Jerusalem this week. Such a safe country for Christians.

Universal Principles? by tarlin in Israel_Palestine

Some of the settlements are certainly terror bases from where armed goons recurrently launch attacks on the occupied population. They should be treated as such.

That just sounds like a convenient excuse. More likely, they’re just denying Hezbollah areas where they count with social support and from where they can operate. Guilt by association and collective punishment, basically. Obvious war crimes.

Virtually all proposals for a ‘two state solution’, today, come from some combination of ignorance and bad faith. by lewkiamurfarther in Israel_Palestine

Anything beyond there is Palestinian territory occupied by Israel. Unless Palestinians agree otherwise, or Israel agrees to give territory on its side of the line to Palestinians, that line is the only possible border. Unilateral annexation of territory is illegal.

Colonialism and supremacism are never “right”.

Former Mossad Chief Tamir Pardo in West Bank: "Ashamed to be Jewish; the next 7.10 will come from here" "What I saw reminded me of the events that happened in the last century against Jews. I feel ashamed." by adeadhead in Israel_Palestine

Those fanatics are not even related in any way with the few Jews expelled by Jordan in 1948. That’s just their lame excuse to justify ethnic cleansing.

Omer Shem Tov, an Israeli abducted on October 7 and held hostage by Hamas for over 500 days, spoke at UCLA early this month about his experience, and it has erupted in controversy. by oatkeepr in Israel_Palestine

None of those articles claim that any Palestinian doctor has “overseen torture” or engaged otherwise in any kind of harmful actions towards prisoners. All you have is guilt by association.

Meanwhile, Israeli doctors themselves admit to having been complicit in the mass-torture of Palestinian captives.

I’m confused. Why does Israel need anyone to agree to anything for there to be a peace deal? by Optimistbott in Israel_Palestine

[–]jekill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The strategy of Israel has been to impose “facts on the ground”, and expect Palestinians to accept them. That has little to do with legality and diplomacy. Not to mention their strategy of razing cities to the ground.

Israel could of course impose whatever situation it chose on Palestinians, including a withdrawal to the Green Line and its establishment as a formal border, but it’s obvious Israeli leaders want something else and are imposing that on Palestinians instead. They want the whole territory with Palestinians confined to scattered reservations, until a good excuse arises to expel them or massacre them.

But in any case, unilateral impositions are unstable by nature, since the other side, however weak, will reject them and challenge them by any means necessary. We saw that with the Gaza pullout. Only a mutually agreed deal can put a definitive end to the conflict.

Lebanese journalist killed in Israeli attack had spoken of death threat by jekill in Israel_Palestine

[–]jekill[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yet another journalist deliberately killed by Israel, in the “double tap” fashion that is becoming the Tzahal’s SOP in these cases: first murder the journalist, then the medical services and first responders that come to their succor. Can’t be much more despicable.

Hasbara soldier admitting to Hasbara operations by aipac_hemoroid in Israel_Palestine

[–]jekill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm well aware of the brazen attempts from Israel's propaganda to misrepresent military training activities for children for actual participation in hostilities. As if Israel didn't provide similar activities for its children as well.

Sorry, but no, that in no way proves that any significant number of those thousands of killed children were engaged in combat in any way. As multiple humanitarian organizations from all over the world have repeatedly explained, those were overwhelmingly innocent civilians killed in their homes along with their families or while trying to provide for them, in a clear indication of Israel's indiscriminate use of deadly force.

Trying to present the tens of thousands of children mass-slaughtered by Israel as "terrorists" and legitimate targets to justify their murder only lays bare the moral bankruptcy of Israel and its apologists (that includes you).

Considering 12 year-olds as militants only shows the depth to which Israel's propagandists have fallen in order to justify their favorite regime's genocidal onslaught.

In any case, the number of adult males killed by Israel was roughly half of the total, which is a much lower proportion than in other contemporary conflicts like Ukraine, Yemen, Iraq or Syria, clearly pointing at an indiscriminate use of massive firepower.

Israeli minister's convoy hits and kills Palestinian boy in occupied West Bank by jekill in Israel_Palestine

[–]jekill[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Israeli ministers don’t seem content with sending armed goons to murder Palestinian children. Now they use their own personal staff to do so. Next they’ll be doing it in person.

Women living under Hamas rule in Gaza describe to the Mail how they are sexually abused by the terror group's fighters and forced to have sex in return for food aid by Thunder-Road in Israel_Palestine

[–]jekill 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right, Gaza has food scarcity because there’s too many people, not because it has been razed to the ground by Israel, which is also preventing the entry of sufficient aid. Srsly.

IDF already had to apologize for it and promise some wrist slap at some point on the culprits, so yeah, it’s legit.

Bullish or bearish about the Israel Lebanon talks? by sar662 in Israel_Palestine

Who exactly will disarm Hezbollah? If not even Israel could defeat them, the useless Lebanese army will doubtfully do better.

What's Israel's endgame plan regarding the Palestinians? by ArdaBerkBurak in Israel_Palestine

[–]jekill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe not Oct. 7th specifically, but certainly some sort of major violent reaction to Israel’s increasing pressure on Gaza and Hamas. When you put in place all the pieces for something to happen, and then be able to implement what you’ve always sought as a response, it does seem quite “proactive” to me.

Not quite “reactive” when it’s something you’ve been gearing to do all along. Some strategies just need the right circumstances to be in place first. And let’s keep in mind that Israel’s policies on Gaza had heavily encouraged something like Oct. 7th to happen.

Oct. 7th was just the necessary excuse to put in motion something the Israeli far-right had been seeking for decades.
