This guy has become the same thing, which his grandparents were killed by.

[-] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 63 points 4 months ago

It needs to be said that somehow Israel has become that which it was supposed to never allow again.

"Never Again"

Some time later

"Lol jk but we do it now"

[-] MTK@lemmy.world 25 points 4 months ago

"Never again to us, everyone else can fuck off"

I don't know about this dude specifically but statistically it's unlikely his family were Holocaust survivors given the incredibly small amount of survivers who immigrated and the fewer still who stayed.

No matter how you swing this, letting two million people starve is a barbaric act and there is no justification. What an absolute piece of shit. This is why we will never get off this rock.

[-] Etterra@lemmy.world 64 points 4 months ago

WTF is wrong with people. Why the hell is like half of Israel like this, damn.

[-] febra@lemmy.world 19 points 4 months ago

You're seriously asking why the apartheid ethnostate founded on a history of genocidal land grabs would support this?

[-] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 49 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

It would be 'moral' to tie this guy to the next bomb they drop in Gaza, but they won't let us do it

[-] Takios@discuss.tchncs.de 46 points 4 months ago

It would be moral to drop any support to a government that thinks like this. It would be just to topple a government that thinks like this.

Remind me again.......why are we, the usa, this guys ally? Because everything I see is just a facist, trying to protect his own political career at the cost of human lives that mean nothing to him.

How is this guy ANY different than putin? How can the USA say one guy is wrong, but the other guy is our our ally?

Just to be clear, I'm not defending putin. I'm not saying he's right either. I'm saying putin is a piece of shit, and so is israel's leadership.

And also just to be clear, I don't hate Jewish people, so lets not even try that victim card.

They use the money they get from the US to buy weapons from the US. They serve the purpose of enriching the billionaire class.

[-] Icalasari@fedia.io 17 points 4 months ago

Guilt over WWII, plus lots of Apocalyptic Christians in the US see Israel as a very key step to the end days and thus going to heaven, so punishing Israel would slow the apocalypse

[-] masquenox@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Guilt over WWII,

Please.

[-] Quill7513@slrpnk.net 4 points 4 months ago

They help us maintain the resource extraction we perform throughout West Asia. Everything else doesn't matter. That's why we sent 39 F-35s (the most advanced fighter plane in the world) to Israel and a handful of F-16s (an aircraft we've basically retired) to Ukraine

[-] Sir_Kevin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 4 months ago

Because unlike Russia, Isreal buys billions of dollars worth of military shit from the US. That is the reason. Greed.

[-] Aceticon@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Putin doesn't seem to be targeting children.

This guy is significantly worse than Putin, which is quite extraordinary.

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Putin is not only targeting children, he's targeted childrens hospitals several times including one with the roof painted "Children inside"

[-] ArbitraryValue@sh.itjust.works 21 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

This is an excellent example of prioritizing one's own political survival over the good of the nation. He knows how important the goodwill of the United States is to Israel and yet he's publicly describing a course of action that he explicitly says is both unfeasible and horrifying to Israel's allies. By his own logic, saying what he is saying is not in Israel's best interest and yet there he is...

How on Earth is genocide moral?!?!

[-] masquenox@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

How on Earth is genocide moral?!?!

It's been "moral" since (so-called) "western civilization" decided it was "moral."

[-] some_guy 19 points 4 months ago

ICJ needs to put this man in chains.

[-] radicalautonomy@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

Chains, pffffbtbtbt. I want heads on mfin pikes at this point. I was mass crucifictions of these genocidal fucks, straight up Meereen-style.

[-] anticurrent@sh.itjust.works 16 points 4 months ago

You are already doing it and the world is letting you do it just fine.

I heard a testimony from a foreign doctor operating in Gaza about operating on many many children who have swallowed small objects like coins and pebbles just to quell their unbearable hunger.

[-] danekrae@lemmy.world 14 points 4 months ago

"It's not like, we're gassing them quickly. We're starving them slowly. Much better morals."

[-] BenLeMan@lemmy.world 14 points 4 months ago

And guess who's going to be entering the coming war on this gentleman's side soon? Congrats!

[-] BenLeMan@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Well, Evil Bert is American, so you're not far off.

[-] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 10 points 4 months ago

Yet another reminder that if God exists, he's like that fucker in Toy Story that likes to blow up his toys.

[-] Aceticon@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

It's funny how I've been discussing with some German guy who thinks Germany's Diplomatic and moral support (not weapons anymore, thankfully) for the Government that includes this guy is Germany "having a nuanced posture" and it's not racism (even Sholz himself says it's all about the ethnicity of what he explicitly calls "the Jewish Nation").

Somebody below was wondering how Genocide could be moral and I'm thinking: well, you move the line of what is racism all the way until racism is only the very violent murder of others due to their ethnicity, call "nuanced" the posture of people who "merely" provide support to those doing said very violent murder of others due to their ethnicity and then just do a tiny, tiny shove of the boundary line for that so very special morality a little bit further and, presto, Genocide now falls in the side of being moral ("nuanced" and not racist)
