Innocent Palestinians are regularly forced by soldiers to enter houses in Gaza to make sure there are no terrorists or explosives. So why is the IDF's Military Police Criminal Investigation Division opening only six investigations into the use of human shields?

What is the UN doing? I already know the the US is completely cooked and even if Kamala had won idiots like Schumer would be slorping Netanyahu's balls.

Kamala Harris is a good person (politic wise) but powerless against this tide of fascism. I have this conviction that deep down she wasn’t fully part of all these transgressions so I concur with your statement.

I'm pretty sure they told her not to challenge those questionable swing state votes despite it looking bizarre. If they actually wanted her to win Biden would have backed down in 2022

It didn't go through without pushback. Soldiers and officers resisted. I resisted. But that's what happens when the senior command doesn't care and the politicians even less. That's what happens when you're quick on the trigger and operationally burned-out to the max. That's what happens when you're in an unending war that fails to bring the hostages back alive month after month. You lose moral judgment.

Thought that part was interesting.

I heard certain guards overlooking certain camps said the same thing.

If someone asks me to commit genocide, it's going to take a bit more then "pushback" to get me to do it.

Yeah sorry, having a real hard time sympathizing with "this war is taking too long and my boss is mean, I had no choice but to do a war crime :( "

zionists hate this one trick: exposing their degeneracy to the World, keep on down voting. The People see you.

It's all projection

I can't recall if I already banned them here or not for their genocide apologia. I did just ban them in politics for that bullshit.

Aha, somebody else did it 7 months ago.

Probably trying to work out how to blame it entirely on the ones being treated as shields.

(or waiting for the proper hasbara lines)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I hope not :( there's got to be a limit

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Everytime I think there is I get surprised. Or already disproven things get brought up to distract

I think he's ignoring this now. Oh well, I tried.

Let's just bomb tel aviv once and for all.

I have the prevliage to not be an indoctrinated brainwashed nazi, and also not be oppressed, besieged and living in genocide in an open air prison since I was born.
Thus here's the difference between me and them. When Oct-7-2023 happened, as much as I understood the occupation, unlawfull raids and arrests and regular carpet bombing "aka mowing the lawn", starvation and besiege which Gaza was suffering under for decades, I still was heartbroken and mortified by the innocent Israeli civilians who were killed and hurt although Hamas claimed their main aim was to attack military posts and checkpoints near them. And now I'm heartbroken and mortified by the genocide commited by Israel. I don't cheer for the killing of civilians or innocents anywhere, even though 90% of Israelis are sociopathic terrorist sympathisers and genocide supporters themselves.

Israelis are indoctrinated nazis that do not see Palestinians as humans but I'm still not okay with bombing people for their ideas let alone because of their race, which Israel does.

Sadly, they don't reciprocate such basic rational humanity. I have videos, pictutes, and tweets of them dancing celebrating and cheering for killing, burning and amputating kids. Still I think it's possible to coexist with them if they and their government abided by basic human rights for all, and the solution to get there should not be violence and bloodshed.
Well if the US stopped sending $30Billions a year in bombs and weapons to a genocidal nazi aparthied colonizing state, and sought deplomacy and gave Palestinians their rights to just live like humans,, that should be a good start.
