t3rmit3, (edited ) in Abandoned babies found decomposing in Gaza hospital weeks after it was evacuated

But of course no one will act on calls to blame Israel for the hospital needing to be evacuated in the first place…

    Idk right, they think they are American cops or something?

    You could just say ‘American.’

    It’s only ‘Cops’ when it’s inland, they call it ‘Military’ when they impose outside their own borders.

    But it’s all the same in the end.

    Arkham,

    Fun fact if you’re not aware: many American police recieved training from Israeli police and military.

    Great, here comes the shroom moral panic

    Murvel,

    Questioning the moral of pilots tripping on psychedelics?

    apprehensively_human,

    The moral panic slippery slope of: Pilots shouldn’t be using psychedelics therefor nobody should be using psychedelics.

    And in any case, the article states that he wasn’t even a member of the flight crew but was sitting in the jump seat and had been operating on 40 hours without any sleep and didn’t say when he actually consumed the mushrooms.

    HuddaBudda, in Israeli death toll passes 600, another 2,048 injured
    @HuddaBudda@kbin.social avatar

    This couldn't happen at a worse time.

    The Israeli President, has been doing things a bit more draconian of late. To the point he was basically invalidating the supreme court of Israel.

    Because they found shady dealings in his past.

    The Air force Reservists of Israel basically walked off in protest.

    That was three months ago.

    Now I imagine the Israeli president will use this like a smoke screen, not only to criticize reservists, but also to hide his criminal intent.

    This also helps Saudi Arabia and Syria, as they will be able to hide their military operations under the guise that they are only acting on a more active Israel.

    This situation only helps the people in power. It does nothing for the civilians who are going to face the pushback from this. Or already have.

    Akasazh,
    @Akasazh@feddit.nl avatar

    I got sick when Bibi smugly, smilingly denounced this attack and declared war. Lacking any solemnity that a repugnant attack like this requires.

    Couldn’t hide his glee.

    Sad day for people of Israel and Palestine alike, this sets back any remote chance of progress for another lifetime.

    Westerners? I’m foreign-born Chinese, and you couldn’t pay me to enter China. My anti-ccp sentiments combined with their sense of ownership of all Chinese people regardless of birth nation means I’m probably on a low priority list somewhere.

    tacosanonymous, in Israel orders unprecedented evacuation of 1 million in Gaza as possible ground offensive looms

    So, more war crimes incoming.

    Rapidcreek,

    War crimes was yesterday’s word of the day…isn’t the morning memo out yet?

    Kichae,

    It's the word of the day every day they be doing war crimes.

    Not only is it impossible to evacuate that many people in that short a time, but they're basically declaring that they're going to use their military to targer and kill civilians.

    Which is a war crime.

    "Hamas did it first" doesn't give them a pass here. If it's not ok for Hamas, it's not ok for the Israeli state. And inverting that, if it is ok for the Israeli state...

    Rapidcreek,

    You are using a term you don’t fully understand to try to cudgle popular opinion without acknowledging your own hypocrisy of not acknowledging that this began with the slaughter of civilians to begin with. I’m sure countries like Iran love you for it,

    You don’t know if it’s a short time. The time is not specified. If Hamas uses human shields, is that not a war crime?

    NoIWontPickaName,

    Yes if Hamas uses human shields, and that is actually a war crime, which I have to believe it is but loopholes and exclusions abound in treaties, then that IS a war crime. Full stop.

    Does that make it okay for others to commit war crimes?

    If someone rapes or kills someone daughter, does that mean that the father gets a free pass to rape or murder the original rapist/murderer's daughter even though she had nothing to do with it other than by happenstance of being the rapist/murderer's daughter?

    Just to reiterate, Hamas committing war crimes is Bad!

    Rapidcreek,

    But, what you are saying is Hamas strategy of human shields should work. Israel has no recourse?

    NoIWontPickaName,

    Yes, that's sort of how human Shields work.

    If you're willing to kill an innocent to get your way you're the bad guy in that situation.

    And just to be perfectly clear here, I do live in America, and we have been the bad guy many fucking times.

    I fucking hate it and I don't understand why none of the rest of you can learn from our fuck ups.

    Rapidcreek,

    No country, not even the US, is not going to defend 8tself after being attacked. If human shields are used, you can try to take precautions but shit does happen when you’re being shot at.

    NoIWontPickaName,

    The human shields they have are Israeli this time.

    Not just those filthy palestine non human animals, so yeah I bet it does work.

    I really hope at some point you become better than this, until then enjoy backing genocide.

    I don't care about the legal definition of that either just to save you some time.

    Enjoy your warmongering and enjoyment of human suffering

    As bad of a person as you are i still hope you never encounter anything as bad as the israeli you blindly support have done to the palestinians

    Limitless_screaming,
    @Limitless_screaming@kbin.social avatar

    acknowledging that this began with the slaughter of civilians

    Don't forget the demolition of houses, and the stealing of land too.

    Rapidcreek,

    Where do you think Hamas is at? This happens every time. Hamas uses human shields of Palestinians. israel bombs their ass in the houses they hang out is. Liberals get upset and scream war crime. Israeli then stops.

    But, will that happen this time? By my reading the answer is no. Israel will make a full force invasion and much blood will be spilled on both sides.

    Instead of carrying Hamas water, you should support, as I do, the US Secretary of State who knows what is coming and is trying to setup humanitarian corridors for the humanitarian crisis that is sure to come.

    Unaware7013,

    Hey, you're not allowed to talk about the decades of an apartheid state's treatment of these people or the systematic destruction of their infrastructure to be stolen by illegal settlers or the fact that Israel is directly responsible for creating Hamas; all the history for this conflict started like 6 months ago!

    Limitless_screaming,
    @Limitless_screaming@kbin.social avatar

    all the history for this conflict started like 6 months ago

    No, no, that's a very long time filled with heinous acts that we cannot let surface. This conflict started 6 days ago.

    NoIWontPickaName,

    Israel committed war crimes 5 minutes ago, that's the past, forgive everything and give them more ability to kill innocents

    Rapidcreek,

    Have you ever read the rules of war?

    NoIWontPickaName,

    My friend if you have to hide behind technicalities and legalities your point is just morally wrong and you know it

    Rapidcreek,

    Whoa. I think the rules of war are fairly specific and technicalities and legalities are determined by the International Criminal Court. Not up to you to determine and you know it.

    NoIWontPickaName,

    Whoa. I think I made very clear I don't give a fuck about what the legal fucking rules of War are.

    Just because you make a rule about something doesn't make it right.

    Germany had rules that made it okay to kill the Jews, does that make it right?

    You can go ahead and find everywhere I went and said anything that could be misconstrued as giving a shit about the rules of War and understand I don't give a shit about them.

    Go with crimes against humanity, crimes against basic decency, hell call it crimes against the Galactic Empire that supports the lizard people undermining the nationality of Panama.

    I don't give a shit, feel free to hide behind the technicalities of whether something is a war crime or not.

    Nowhere in my life do I feel the need to try to fucking defend that

    Rapidcreek,

    Ah so you don’t care what a war crime is, you’ll just scream it and define it as you want. Well, if that makes sense to you…

    NoIWontPickaName,

    Enjoy your pedantry troll. You may have engaged me for a second but no one can be as completely fucking stupid as you.

    You might be my first block, enjoy it.

    HuddaBudda,
    @HuddaBudda@kbin.social avatar

    Forgive us sir, I didn't realize that civilians getting burned with white phosphorus, highly NSFL/NSFW was such a boring event for you.

    But in reality you are probably just numb as all of us to what is happening because:

    • There is nothing we can do, except social pressure.
    • There is nothing that will be done. Until everyone has had their fill of violence.

    But today's word of the day is war crime, tomorrow's word of the day doesn't have to be.

    Rapidcreek, (edited )

    Willy Pete has been used by the US is Iraq and other places. One of the big reasons it was used.is that that in cities the trend is to cover roads with fabric. Of course, you can’t see movement on those roads , so willy Pete, white phosphorus, is used to clear the fabric. Don’t know why Russia uses it in Ukraine.

    There is nothing we can do, except social pressure.

    I wonder howmuch effect you think you have on a full blown war.

    There is nothing that will be done. Until everyone has had their fill of violence.

    War has always been this way

    NoIWontPickaName,

    I always forget that just because we did something bad means that other people should as well. I should have remembered we did the Trail of Tears and now Israel wants to do the Trail of Tears, it's genius!

    Fuck we can get away with anything as long as someone else does it first that makes it all okay I'm glad you solved this problem.

    Rapidcreek,

    I tried to give an explanation. It fell on ideological ears.

    NoIWontPickaName,

    No we just don't buy your excuses for genocide. You can try and justify it all you want and maybe that will make you feel better but at the end of the day it is what it is and they have been trying to remove the Palestinians for years by whatever force is necessary. Whether it's kicking them out of their homes and killing their children or now just going for a full-on fucking genocide.

    You are trying to justify things that are unjustifiable

    Rapidcreek,

    I’m giving you information. There’s no reason to provide more. Your ideologies will protect your ignorance.

    NoIWontPickaName,

    And what ideology would that be friend?

    Rapidcreek,

    Since all you can do is make protestations about war crimes it pretty apparent

    NoIWontPickaName,

    So do you support war crimes?

    That seems like a very empty and vague answer.

    I wonder why?

    Rapidcreek,

    Ŵar crimes are very specific. You use the phase often enough and it’s impact dilutes. Ukraine knew this, so they got an international investigation going that ended up with the ICC indicating Putin. That’s the way it works. Sitting in your computer chair repeating war crimes not only does nothing but fogs discourse

    potterman28wxcv, (edited ) in Threads is rolling out an edit button, and it's not locked behind a paywall | TechCrunch

    This is such a basic functionality. It does not deserve advertisements, it should have been there from the start.

    and it’s not locked behind a paywall

    Are we supposed to cheer?

    jonne,

    The bar has been lowered significantly after the Twitter takeover.

    TheDeepState,

    I think that last part is mostly meant as a criticism to Twitter, or x, and not necessarily to make us cheer. Either way, you won’t catch me cheering about any meta product.

    SeaOfTranquility, (edited ) in Misinformation about the Israel-Hamas war is flooding social media. Here are the facts
    @SeaOfTranquility@beehaw.org avatar

    Those are just technical details. Misinformation about the IDF-Hamas war is so insane, you can’t even look at “reputable” mainstream media outlets without getting ahistorical analysis, zionism or antisemitism. We are witnessing ethnic cleansing and cruel war crimes here because all the parties who had the possibility to prevent this decided not to. Instead of focussing on the historical context and the steps necessary to deescalate this conflict, the media is focussing on the question of which acts of violence are justified and which aren’t.
