    The Israeli border police said the security vehicle had come to extricate Israeli forces under heavy fire, and ran over the body unintentionally, Reuters reported.

    “Oops ran over a body”.

    “Oops, again”.

    “Oops, can’t seem to stop. Definitely accidental though. For sure.”

    Its not antisemitic to say that israel troops in Gaza currently see Palestinians as vermin.

    How can you treat humans like this unless you think of them as lesser beings?

      if it’s antisemitic to say that Israel thinks of Gazans as less than human then I’ve got a bunch of tweets from a bunch of antisemitic high ranking members of the Israeli government.

      Then again, it would be antisemitic to fund Hamas and kill Israeli hostages but the IDF does that, so maybe…

    Currently following the ICJ live feed and some lawyer is providing video testimony of Israeli soldiers having some sort of internal challenge for snuff videos of committing atrocities on Palestinians. This is what some misguided people support when they say they are Pro-Israel in this conflict btw.

    The small bit of happiness that the brothers managed to live is completely nullified by the fact a person was still mudered and they were a stranger rushing to the first brother’s aid.

    I can only hope it was quick. A soul like that deserves the best of us; not this.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    The shooting of 17-year-old Osaid Rimawi in the early hours of last Friday is shown in footage from a security camera in a local shop that was obtained by the Associated Press news agency.

    The Israeli military said troops in Beit Rima had opened fire on suspects who had thrown explosives and firebombs, AP reported.

    Earlier this week, footage from Gaza emerged that appeared to show a sniper killing a woman as she led a column of civilians trying to reach a safe zone in November.

    In the wake of Hamas’s 7 October attacks on Israel, which killed 1,200 people, most international focus has been on the war in Gaza, where the death toll has climbed to more than 23,000 and most of the population is displaced and starving.

    The second West Bank video comes from a security camera in the city of Tulkarm, where Israel’s border police said on Monday they had killed three gunmen in a raid to arrest a militant.

    The footage shows Israeli security forces shooting at young men, at least one of them armed, as they rush out of a house, Reuters reported.

    Why do we see so many videos of Russian and Israeli military being like that and not American? Is it because the US government is better at controlling the media or does the US military really have a better handle on behavior like that?

      You underestimate how little effort israel is doing to hide their war crimes. Their soldiers are mostly untrained Nazi extreme right wingers with a gun.

      Smartphones and CCTV cams weren’t that common before too.

      Before we had Snowden and Assagne that needed to leak western war crimes and we know what happened to those guys.

      America as army has since adjusted a bit. I actually commended them for their drone strike that only used knifes to kill one of their targets. Though by giving israel 2000 pound bombs to mass murder children at schools with, that reputation is now completely gone.

      The reason America adjusted is not because they found their humanity, but because they found out that if you bomb three entire families to kill one enemy, you create a hundred more enemies. And then the Taliban won.

          They want so badly for Joe to have no responsibility because it makes their vote easier. If you’re gonna vote for a financier of genocide and veto-er of ceasefire, you have to own that. Idc if the other guy is worse that doesn’t make Joe innocent, just recoginze that you’re also voting for a monster. Just this monster is smart enough to hurt most the people who can’t vote him in or out.

            I feel like it’s telling that when you offer up any criticism of Biden, the main reply you get is “sO yOU’d rathEr HAvE tRuMP?!!?”

            Well, no. But honestly if the best thing they can say about their guy is that he’s better than a blatant fascist then that’s pretty damning.

            Also if they won’t tolerate any criticism because he’s a marginal improvement on the worst possible guy, then what they’re saying is that they’ll allow him to slide all the way down to being about as bad as Trump before they’ll do anything about it, and if they’d do that, then they wouldn’t do anything about it when he did get there, because the bad guy would be even worse by that point. They are enabling a rightward slide.

            Honestly I see elections as voting for your preferred enemy. They are never on our side. How about this, we agree that he’s better than Trump and that any reasonable person is forced to vote for him, and then we criticise him because we want better than neoliberal austerity and genocide apologia?

            If their answer is no then they don’t actually want the world to get better, just not change too much, which is basically the platonic ideal of what they call conservatism.

            Letting in the alternate is worse. Without question. I agree Biden and most of our political apparatus are problematic. But getting rid of Biden won’t change it, and will make it worse.

            Here’s a hypothetical for you to answer. Would you vote to kill 100 people, or 10 people. Or choose to virtue signal, not vote, and have 100 people killed anyway. But tell yourself that you’re innocent because you didn’t try to help.

              Can we talk about Biden once without someone making this about Trump? All that does is detract and put less responsibility on Biden to do better. No one talked about voting for Trump, no one talked about voting thrid party, why do you feel the need to come with Biden apologia anyway?

                Can we talk about Biden once without you making this about Trump?

                We literally were. You are the only person who brought Trump up. I’m simply arguing against letting fascists into power. Which is the other option whether it’s Trump, Haley, ramoswami or any of the others.

                All that does is detract and put less responsibility on Biden to do better.

                No, it doesn’t. And pray till how does not voting, or telling people not to vote for him. Put pressure on him in any way? It doesn’t. He’s old staff leaving over this. That puts pressure on him and we should support them in doing that. That’s likely the only thing he’ll notice and listen to.

                No one talked about voting for Trump, no one talked about voting thrid party, why do you feel the need to come with Biden apologia anyway?

                I literally said he was a problem and offered. No apologies or excuses. Is this all you have, strawman and demotivational talking points?

                What Biden did, basically any of our politicians would have done. Because we don’t have a Biden problem, we have an Israel problem. A political problem at large. They own the hearts, minds, and wallets of the majority of politicians in the United States at the federal level.

                Calling him genocide. Joe because he did what any of our leaders would have done at the UN. And have done many times over the years. Might I add. Is inaccurate, childish, and only helpful to worse people.

                Don’t get me wrong. I’m glad that you as a young adult have just discovered what’s been going on in DC for at least 50 years. It’s just not a Biden problem. And there’s no way that we as voters can take pressure on just him and expect him to change. Not when there’s an unlimited number of other politicians who will do the exact same thing who aren’t being pressured.

                Be disappointed in Joe all you want. I make a practice of being disappointed in him at least twice before breakfast every day. But can we stop amplifying, and enabling hyperbolic children who only seek to cut off our nose to spite our face. Then having to stumble around trying to triage the damage we did to ourselves rather than spend time actually organizing to make a real change. Can we maybe break the steady slide to the right? Moved on for the last century or even a few years? Or are we just going to continue being our own worst enemy?

                  You brought up the alternative, just because you didn’t say his name doesn’t mean it wasn’t you. Low effort cop out. Also I’ve been voting for decades now so stop with this patronizing young shit. Im probably older than you.
