No, they won't.

Can you imagine discovery?

The witness testimony?

[–] Hacksaw@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 days ago

Israel is trying to figure out what victims snitched so they can kill them and their families. They're not stupid enough to think they could win money, they just want discovery so they can teach those Palestinians a lesson for speaking to the media.

The only thing the NY Times should be condemned for is publishing this piece in the opinion section and not the actual news section.

Israeli influencers and politicians responded to the accounts by claiming that the New York Times was perpetuating a blood libel – or an antisemitic canard, used to justify the slaughter of Jews in Europe during the medieval and early modern era.

They never actually call it a "lie" they always just use their weird made up doublespeak.

LOL Israeli fascists calling others anti-semites when they are the ones berating and persecuting european jews for criticizing the Zionist scum... They are the real anti-semites.

I hate it when my canards are antisemitic... I do an aileron roll and anthem of the third Reich starts playing...

How dare they tell everybody about the Israeli war crimes. Only explanation I can think of is that New York Times hates all jews.
