Calling Jews nazis, and saying Israel should be nuked, yet I’m the one getting banned from communities all over the site for saying leftists have lost their fucking minds over this conflict.
Man, everyone is getting mad and they keep telling me I’m wrong… But i am me, so i know i am right. So what the hell is their problem?
Calling Jews nazis, and saying Israel should be nuked
You just used the word Jews. Nobody was talking about Jews or Israel. We are talking about IDF war criminals and a dictator.
Yeah the nuking part is dumb but nazis is pretty fitting at this point. They are, using their goverments statements of intent as evidence, comitting genocide and constantly using very similar language to that of nazi germany.
Many high ranking israeli officials consider palestinians inferior “animals” that need to be eradicated.
If you dont get why people are losing their minds over that, then you shouldnt be surprised people dont like you.
Lemmy has become an echo chamber for people who think the Palestinians have been persecuted/oppressed and that Jihad is a rational response and Israel should sit back and accept it. War is always horrendous to see but it’s incredible the complete asymmetry of people’s judgement on the actions of Israel vs Hamas
I’ve actually gone back to Reddit which I haven’t used since last June. The discussion there is far more balanced.
I don’t think he said anybody should be nuking Jews. It’s a subtle little ploy, trying to make it seem like anyone who stands against Israel hates Jews, but the only people you’re fooling is Zionists.
I would be really careful when labeling it in that way.
If Iran nuked Israel, the US would join in even more and retaliate for Israel, since most of our gov’t and politicians get some form of donations or help from AIPAC and such.
This would start WWIII at a much quicker rate than what it currently is, not to mention Russia and China would also have to join in.
Zionists would be a better word, IMO, force a ceasefire and sanction Israel would be the minimum.
The sooner ww3 starts the better. If it’s going to happen anyway let’s just get it out if the way already. Living in this time right now is not worth it
Nobody is forcing you to live and you don’t need to take millions of people with you like a psychopath.
If you could actually read you would have noticed that i qualified it by saying if its gonna happen anyway.
That means sooner the better. The longer it takes the more people who will be affected and the worse it will be.
Fighting a war before the climate crisis gets worse will leave us better off.
You want to label me a pyschopath fine. But since you started name calling let me treat you the same way.
I dont care what a fucking idiot thinks about me
Oh fuck, I didnt realize Nostradamus was here calculating every possible future for billions of people. Of course World War 3 must be the best thing for all of them.
edit: word
I do not think that is a healthy way of looking at the world.
The working class are just pawns in these never ending wars we somehow keep finding ourselves in.
This is all [due] to the owner class pushing for more profits and more infighting within the working class.
The real war should be the class war!
Don’t worry guys, Israel has no idea how to target buildings “without a marker smoke.”
Pay no attention to all that precise targeting equipment that Israel called “where’s daddy” and “Lavender” that seems to target civilians just fine.
The way it’s been used by the IDF, the where’s daddy system seems deliberately intended to target women and children since they would be sheltering in the domiciles that get bombed without warning.
That is not the way they use this system. It is what the system is designed and cynically named for. They name it “where is daddy” because when daddy comes home, the entire family is murdered.
I suspect i know the answer to this, but where in the hell did they get this internationally illegal substance to use?
Phosphorous is everywhere and is used in tons of products.
White phosphorus is incredibly easy to obtain in small volumes (if you have a matchbook you already have some red phosphorus), and in larger volumes it’s found in some pretty common minerals. Unfortunately the possible damage done or weapons use of a material isn’t always reflected in how difficult it is to obtain. According to the ACS 900,000 tons are produced annually & mostly used in fertilizer and pesticide.

It’s not illegal to have or use. It’s legitimately used for smoke screens and illumination. It is illegal to use against people. And given the population density of Gaza, it can basically only ever be a war crime.
US sold it to them years ago:

It’s legal for illumination and smokescreens.
I see. Thank you, that makes sense
And now the OP has disappeared. Anyone heard of The Cradle? Reputable?
People have lives outside Lemmy.
But it doesn’t seem reputable to me. Rather new outfit, a lot of stuff unattributed, and clearly slanted, though I wouldn’t say they’re actively pushing an agenda. Also, most of their articles just seem to be reporting on other orgs doing the actual journalism.
Sorry, I didn’t mean to implicate the poster target the post, but the cross post is a dead link. My fault for causing confusion. Still can’t see any article, though.
Yeah the crosspost source is gone, but the post link itself is still there. Your Lemmy client shouldn’t have any problem with that, but here it is again: https://thecradle.co/articles-id/24770
Oh cool, Thanks. Boost just tells me 404 link not found.

Good to know!
trying to platinum war crimes
Wow a four second video of nothing, totally proof of war crimes.
Al Jazeera has zero credibility.
What on earth are you taking about? That video wasn’t even in the Al Jazeera article that this (not Al Jazeera) article mentions.
Article is being reported for bias, and yeah, thecradle.co is rated as being left of center.
I’m leaving this up because Israel has been caught using white phosphorus before.
Years ago in Lebanon:

And just recently, elsewhere in Gaza:
