I genuinely thought this was hyperbolic satire.
EDIT: Outlet has edited headline since time of posting.
The world isn’t real. This is simply too ridiculous to have happened. I have been in a coma for the last six years and this is all just a weird fantasy playing out in my mind.
wait, but does that mean i’m in a coma, or im a figment of your imagination and im in your coma?
but i agree, it’s too absurdly horrible to be plausible
I think, therefore I am. You think, therefore you are.
well how do i know you think?
You don’t, and neither do I.
fuck
Hey now it’s not too bad, the sea pickles get by just fine while not thinking
well they’re just simulations too
I think I think, therefore I think I am.
You’re either in your coma or their coma, but either way, you’re in a coma!
it’s the only plausible explanation
I had a concussion in 2008 and I’m wondering if I didn’t wake up from it and any day now I’ll wake up in spring 2008.
shakes you vigorously
“Wake the fuck up and take us with you!”
“I’m tired of being a figment of this dickhead’s imagination!”
Ok, so that was horrifying that they treated it so lightly, but this headline seems slightly inaccurate.
It seems they were not blowing it up for a ‘gender reveal’, but instead were blowing it up otherwise and something in the building produced blue smoke, and they found the resemblence hilarious.
Al Jazeera must have updated/corrected it. The title of the post was the original headline.
That’s not a good look for Al Jazeera.
Al Jazeera is always extremely anti Israel. The Arabic version even more so than the English one.
That’s like saying science is anti-conservative
Well, you can check it yourself. Go to Arabic Al Jazeera and use machine translation and compare it to the English version. Then compare the article to the same topic on the BBC and Times of Israel. Compare and contrast.
Al Jazeera is Qatari state media. There’s no press freedom in that authoritarian kingdom.
Yeah well you can check it yourself as well. I don’t know how any of your mental gymnastics relate to the dumb shit you said originally.
Why does ‘state media with no press freedom in an authoritarian kingdom’ only seem scary when it’s al jazeera’s and not BBC’s or Times of Israel’s?
You’d expect them to be factually accurate though.
OK, that’s somewhat callous, but I think almost any nation’s soldiers would make that same joke.
You would need to be entirely devoid of any semblance of humanity to even conceive of this idea, right?
How do you want to celebrate the joy of a new child? Oh, I don’t know, how about we make a light of ethnic cleansing and genocide.
Fucking ghouls
I’m decently sure they don’t have the self awareness to even say that. The IDF just believes they’re the good guys
They are well aware they are doing evil, but they plan to stop at some point and just forget it ever happened. They will bury the history and whats left, they will each pretend they never personally supported. Did you see the new marvel movie? “We all did some bad things, those were some dark dark times, but whats important now is that we stand together and protect the people”
And while they were at it they turned captain america into a white guy again (and only ever mention previous cptn ameria being steve rogers), and the “new avengers” has 3 russian heros in it, each of which has no moral compass. Thats after they tried to title the last Avengers movie, “A new world order”, and spend 15 minutes of it on a backstory of “sadaf” and israeli superhero protecting the motherland from terrorists bent on destruction and killing of innocents.
I’m not kidding. They arent particularly subtle about any of it. They are practically announcing their propoganda and sales pitch on it now. And we’ll lick it right up too.
Their depravity has no limits
Ethnic Genocide is now fully Normalized in Israel.
In some ways this is actually beyond Nazi Germany, were the actual perpetrators of the genocide did not make a public show of their murdering of the people they saw as untermenschen.
This kind of thing is a pretty good indication that there is far broader acceptance (glee, even) amongst the Israeli population for Genocide than there was amongst the German population in Nazi Germany.
I wonder what if nazi germany had access to social media, recommendation algorithms, bots, etc… influencing masses has never been this easy in history
From what I’ve heard the extreme racism is generalized in the Mainstream Press in Israel, so I’m not sure that it’s the Social Media that’s making Genocide along ethnic lines be more broadly accepted there than it was in Nazi Germany.
That said, the fables in Israel around “The Jewish People” and its identity with the Palestinians as “antagonists”, have been spun for far longer and the antagonism has been going on for far longer (since the creation of the state of Israel) than the ones in Nazi Germany with Jews as “antagonist”, so maybe the much longer time (about 70 years) during which Israelis have been indoctrinated about their own ethnic superiority and the “antagonism” of Palestinians in Israel compared to the length of the similar indoctrination of the population in Nazi Germany, is the main cause for the more broad acceptance of Genocide amongst the populus in Israel than in Nazi Germany.
If you’ve grown up hearing about how you’re part of a superior people (“God’s chosen people”) and Palestinians are The Enemy who hate you and want you dead, and your parents too grew up like that, you’re probably far, far, more likely to be an extreme racist that trully believes themselves to be inherently superior and that Palestinians as not really human like themselves - hence having zero empathy for the suffering of Palestinians and maybe even relishing in it - than somebody who has only been exposed to similar shit for a decade or two.
Fuck Israel.
And people wonder why I’m such a cynical, miserable fucking Eeyore all the time. Fuck humans so fucking much. Wretched creatures we are.
Yup.
Israeli soldiers blow up building in Gaza and laugh about ‘gender reveal’ ‘It’s a boy!’ Israeli soldiers have filmed themselves blowing up a building in Gaza while laughing that the blue smoke resembles a ‘gender reveal’.
Fuck israël ans fuck IDF
Fuck Israel, genocidal scum!
Fucking Animals
Please fix the title.
At least we know it’s a boy!
Yay then we can mutilate its genitalia!
