why does protesting, which is essentially just saying “I don’t like thing” justify immediate violent summary execution of a child? You can’t get any more twirly mustasche bad guy than that.
Do you think it’s appropriate to run around with fireworks in the middle of an armed conflict?
Especially if it’s what you idealistic, online types say and it’s a “genocide” and an “apartheid state”, do you really see any other way this would end?
Who said that? There is no room for a nuance discussion?
I didn’t watch the video, but based on the text it sure seems like the kid made choices that a reasonable person could think were incredibly risky given the circumstances.
Pointing that out does not mean that you think it was reasonable to shoot him; just that you think it is unsurprising.
This was in the west bank. Not Gaza. You should have watched the video. It would have been wrong still but more understandable for this to have happened in Gaza. Where Israel’s active terror campaign is currently in motion. But this was in the West Bank where Israel is still employing stochastic terrorist tactics.
This would be like saying it was understandable and excusable for police to come shoot and kill you on your doorstep for setting off a firework. Wherever you live.
Fuck off. When the troubles where on in northern Ireland the Brits and the ruc weren’t shooting up prods when setting off fireworks and bonfires on the twelfth. But they targeted Catholics using whatever excuse they could think off. Israels doing the same shit, any excuse to kill people seen as less human.
The Israeli Security Minister praised the sniper.

Removed, ableist slur.
You watch the video? He held it above his own head towards the sky.
I saw the video, he was firing fireworks towards what looked like a fenced border wall, likely manned with soldiers.
Should that fence and other shit be there? Probably not.
Should you be shooting fireworks at armed fortifications during an invasion? Definitely not.
That kid resisted the invasion with the tools he had, he fought and lost.

Course the fucking clown didn’t watch the video. Guy has no understanding of sectarian violence and apartheid at all.

If a 12 year old child cannot play with fireworks, it’s an apartheid state.
I think you have to be 18 to buy fireworks in most places in the US…
Do you think it’s appropriate to be in medical facilities to treat your wounds in the middle of an armed conflict?
That gets people shot in Gaza now too.
As well as the West Bank
Why are you ok with anyone shooting kids?
Who said that? There is no room for a nuance discussion?

It’s in the west bank not in Gaza. These IDF terrorists are there illegally to begin with.

“Rami Hamdan Al-Halhouli, 12, holds a firework aloft moments before being shot by Israeli police.”
They just love any excuse to shoot kids.
That’s clearly a life threatening nuclear ballistic missile that can flatten Tel Aviv six times over
Lighting that firework is 0.8 times the 9/11 !
Ah yes, the hand held rocket that flies from Jerusalem to Tel Aviv.
Slurs are welcome on lemmy as long as we’re talking about people that conservative Democrats want dead.

Uh huh. Don’t insult me by expecting me to buy that shit.
I hope it never happens to your kid. I’m not saying you’re a psychopath, but what you’re saying is complete shit

Tell me, what conflict is there in Jerusalem? This is not Gaza. It’s 100km away.
The only conflict that exist in Jerusalem is the apartheid state of Zionist Israel.
Wrong. Gaza is 80 km, or 49 miles from Jerusalem. Don’t make shit up.
The northern check point is 87km away from Jerusalem by car.
