Couldn’t you use that same claim to say that multiple known genocides weren’t because the populations are higher now? Heck, I see morons use the same argument to claim China isn’t committing genocide because the Uighur population is higher now.
The fallacious “but the population is higher” argument is an idiotic attempt to whitewash genocide.
Even /r/worldnews isn’t able to do much arguing against the new West Bank settlement expansion. There were some shills in the discussions over there still trying to push a “they deserve it” narrative, but it wasn’t getting much traction.
The best they can do at this point is try and push all blame on Netanyahu and Likud.
I honestly don’t think they know, not for all of them at least. The bombing has likely disrupted their communications with various regions that their groups are residing in and any groups that stopped reporting in makes it unclear if they all died and whether the hostages died with them.
Additionally, we already know that there were a number of other groups involved on October 7th that weren’t Hamas and they each kidnapped a handful of hostages. I don’t know if Hamas is able to get info from those other groups on the status of things.
Not sure why anything JPost says about Gaza or the West Bank is believable in the slightest. We have so many, many examples of them blatantly lying about anything and everything in the past.
But, of course, the retraction is much less noticed as compared to the original fake claim.
Israel made an agreement with the hospital to let an ambulance go and save her. And then blew up the ambulance when it got there. There’s no other definition of that than pure evil.
And what about the claim that’s been floating around that the IDF had their helicopters just fire at everyone and anyone at the concert area? They’ve been calling that a conspiracy theory, but this really calls it into question.
The interesting thing about this is that Israel (and all of the IDF defenders across the internet) has been categorically denying that anything of this sort happened at all and have actively been calling it a conspiracy theory pushed by Hamas supporters.
Now that we have active proof it happened at least this one time, it calls into question their denial about other such claimed incidents, such as that the IDF had their helicopters just fire at anyone and everyone on the ground at the concert.
It really does seem like they went full Hannibal Doctrine.
Libertarians continuing to be trash people. Nothing new there.
Especially since these specific soldiers are in the Psyops group that made this Telegram two days after October 7th, along with many other social media pages that were fully allowed and supported by the government.
The idea this one group wasn’t seems…unlikely.
16 year olds can still have major negative long-covid complications from being infected.
Unfortunately, a fair number of people in medicine-adjacent fields that have less requirements on having knowledge on biology and vaccines, such as nurses and pharmacists, are anti-vaxxers.
The latter. This has been actively studied extensively over the past three years. There are minor potential risks from the vaccine (and from any vaccine, since the point is to cause an immune response), but I’d rather take my chances with side effects of my immune system reacting to a pretend infection than having to deal with the real one.
Our medical technology is too good at this point, we can keep the majority of the disease spreaders alive to continue spreading disease on purpose. A sad consequence of technological advancement.
Did you miss how the Israeli government has been actively trying to censor Haaretz since they started doing proper journalism on what’s going on in Gaza? There was even a political attempt to get them shut down.
Per Rule 2 here, I can’t post the full text myself, but here’s a comment over on a Reddit thread for the article that did do that.
Honestly, they’re doing both at the same time, I feel.
That would make a lot more sense if that’s what they meant. Since the governments “investigating” very clearly didn’t care about what happened to him.
So your response to teenagers throwing rocks is to gun them all down?
Did you comment in the wrong thread? Your comment has literally nothing to do with the article above, which has nothing to do with Hamas.
Really makes me wonder what the meaning behind Lavender is in this context. There could quite easily be some horrific intention behind using that specific word in correlation to this murder system.
