The United Nations said on Sunday Israeli tanks had burst through the gates of a base of its peacekeeping force in southern Lebanon, the latest accusation of Israeli violations and attacks that have been denounced by Israel’s own allies.
Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called on the United Nations to evacuate the troops of the UNIFIL peacekeeping force from combat areas in Lebanon. Hours later, the force reported what it described as additional Israeli violations, including two Israeli Merkava tanks destroying the main gate of a base and forcibly entering before dawn that morning.
Soon after the tanks left, shells exploded 100 metres away, releasing smoke which blew across the base and sickened U.N. personnel, causing 15 to require treatment despite wearing gas masks, it said. It did not say who fired the shells or what sort of toxic substance it suspected.
It also accused Israel’s IDF military of halting a logistics convoy. The Israeli military did not immediately respond to the statement.

Media Bias Fact Check | bot support
The spoiled child of the middle east throwing a temper tantrum that has hurt people.
Now what will Biden do to reign in Bibi and his mercenaries?
Nothing. It’s election year. If Biden does something, then Harris is going to be asked to up the ante which could be criticized as a running promise that might not be followed up on and cost her points
That’s the only credit I will give Trump. He’s not afraid to throw guarantees and promises around like they’re Halloween candy. Now him following up on them (especially that don’t benefit him or his friends) is a different story…
Its faster to quantify what Biden would Not do for Netenyahu than figure out what he will do. i cant think of a single thing Biden wouldnt do if Netenyahu told him to. He’d cheerfully drop to his knees and felate the entire IDF if told to, and then write Netenyahu another check of our tax money, to thank the IDF for the opportunity.
Send more weapons and US troops.
Has anyone informed Scorpius?!
Seriously though, Israel has proven over and over again that it has no respect for the UN whatsoever. Maybe it’s time to kick them out, at least until they have a fucking non-genocidal government.
Seems like UN is Hamas.
You can’t possibly believe that.
Oh, but they do Squid. Their comment/post history tells the story.
Well that’s depressing.
It’s also untrue. Check their history for yourself. They’re critical of Israel and sympathetic to the people Israel is bombing.
They’re lying to you.
You’re either perpetuating the deep sarcasm or you ain’t reading right. 😅 If the former - applause.
Bullshit, I went through their post history and it isn’t zionist. Stop that.
Why the fuck are you lying about something we can all so easily verify?
That’s not true. You should look again at their comment history. Their comment above was making fun of Israel’s tendency to retroactively label whoever they kill as Hamas.
I mean yeah isn't it sarcasm?
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poe's_law
Can you link to your evidence for these two points? I may be out of date but the last time I looked there were much lower numbers being accused by Israel, and none of the accusations confirmed independently.
I would like to see corroborating evidence or I will delete this as misinformation.
It is linked in this thread.
Your first link is something that Israel claims about their enemy. Why should I trust that from any nation currently engaged in an offensive war?
The second link is from some anti-UN website and can be dismissed outright.
The third mentions one single person. You claimed over 100.
Sorry, “trust me, bro” is not a valid source. I would not advise you to continue posting misinformation.
Lol. What are you talking about? “Trust me, bro” huh???
Anyways, They have fired 9 people directly involved in the October 7th attack.
Nine people is not 100+. This is your last chance to stop spreading this misinformation.
Edit: Never mind, you put a post that was deleted back in the thread. You’re gone.
Didn’t basically everyone resume UNRWA funding after looking at the evidence? You’d think they wouldn’t have done that if the allegations were credible enough.
I thought “X is Hamas” is a fairly well established meme on Lemmy by this point.
Like I said elsewhere: Poe’s Law. There are people who actually believe that sort of nonsense unfortunately.
Edit: In fact, someone just replied to me agreeing with you, except they’re serious.
I had a good feeling you were being sarcastic… but I have former acquaintances who have unironically posted things along the lines of “The UN says Israel’s doing war crimes? They must have been paid off by Hamas.”
So yeah, hard to tell nowadays.
Maybe you could look into it. Do you think there might be some sort of big global network of computers full of information you could use to find out?
You should use that network to look up “rhetorical question”
Your rhetorical question better be backed up with evidence if you don’t want it getting deleted.
Edit: 9 hours later… no evidence.
Sorry, you just declaring things to be the case is not evidence. No one has any reason to just take your word for it.
You get one more chance to provide actual evidence before you’re out of here for spreading misinformation.
Sorry, none of that backs up your misinformation post that the UN peacekeepers have done nothing in Lebanon for the past 20 years but “snack on popcorn” while Hezbollah fires missiles.
None of that suggests that UNIFIL does nothing. In fact, if UNIFIL found that tunnel, they were doing something.
So you just admitted yourself that your initial comment was misinformation. You’re gone.
I think we should buy DarthJohn a plane ticket and a journalist vest.
They’re acting like a bratty kid. Wtf
What bratty kid that you know murdered their school counceler?
Being from America, how much time you got…?
So what’re they gonna do about it?
The Zionists don’t want witnesses. Thats why they’ve murdered 170 journalists in Gaza.
Why would they care? The whole world is witnessing it and no one is doing anything to stop them.
Because it’s easy to pull a trigger to permanently silence people who might become a slight inconvenience at most.
This is how Israel does diplomacy. They are trying to de-escalate through escalation.
Fascists gonna fash.
Why are are even calling them UN peacekeepers if they prevent violence from one side, but allow it on the other?
If they’re indeed peacekeepers, then they failed their job miserably. As it stands, their only usefulness is being human shields for Hezbollah.
Human what the fuck? No seriously, how does that even make sense?
How many Hezbollah are you saying were in the UN base when Israeli tanks broke through the gates?
Their job isn’t to stop war crimes. Their job is go record war crimes and report back to the UN, where the world’s job is to use this information to stop future war crimes by diplomatic or violent methods
Then maybe they should identify themselves as war inspectors or historians? “Peacekeepers” is kinda misleading…
“I would prefer to see a bit more violence from those supposed ‘Peacekeepers.’”
I mean they're not preventing violence period. They're just... there.
Its important to have independent folks there to monitor for war crimes.
Not like Israel cares, but it's better to have witnesses I guess.
They’re observers
They are literally attacking the UN and still we are expected to provide unquestioning support?
The US will send an antimissile system to Israel as well as a crew of US military personnel to operate the system.
You know, even though it’s still rewarding Israel’s actions in a way, out of all the support the US is giving, this one I probably mind the least. It will prevent further innocent deaths (regardless of what side they are on, this is always a net positive), and it can’t be used by Israel against the Palestinian and Lebanese people. Let the US take over all of the defense of Israel if it means they stop delivering bombs and missiles that Israel will use to further their genocide.
That’s not how it will play out. By unconditionally defending Israel from counter-attack they’re emboldening them to keep fighting and provoking whoever they want. The Israelis know they’re immune to any repercussions from their aggression. They have nothing to fear, and will only further their attacks because of it. This will create more innocent deaths, not less.
Honestly, it makes me pretty angry that we’re providing defensive support like this to Israel, but not to Ukraine. It’s a blatant and huge double standard.
Let me guess, it’s not “boots on the ground”.because they’re wearing sneakers?
.ml called that too.
Their hoping these “accidents” will convince the UN to leave…
Well, … yes that seems to be what will happen
This isn’t new. They’ve been assassinating UN mediators since before they were even granted Statehood.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Folke_Bernadotte
The assassination was organized by Yitzhak Shamir, who was later elected prime minister of Israel.
Israel is the Grim Reaper for UN. And a beloved adopted child of US who doesn’t care of its actual child UN. What a dysfunctional family
Yeah, pretty much :/
They were told to evacuate. They didn’t.
I’m telling you to evacuate your house, if you don’t I’ll just fucking kill you. If you don’t evacuate your own house I’ll also call the police and tell them you had it coming because I told you to evacuate and you refused. I see no flaw in your logic at all.
Don’t evacuate, you might be killed. It’s really not that hard of a concept.
Yeah no you’re just trying to justify another war crime committed by the settler colonial apartheid genociders.
The funny thing is that your logic is so poorly thought that you could apply it to all the attacks against Israel.
“Hey, Israelis, we’re gonna bomb your homes! You better evacuate if you don’t want to die!”
You don’t tell the fucking UN to evacuate because you want to attack someone.
The UN holds zero authority when I’m putting my country’s best interests forward.
Just as the rest of the Western world is better served by not getting entangled into the genocidal actions of the religious extremists now running
IranIsraelReligion is a front.
The UN has more athority over Lebenon, than Isreal. Note Hezbula is not a terrorist as they clame but a legitimate party in Lebinan and following lebenise law.
I also want to point out that the UN was there for the spupervised demiliterization of Hezbula with the assistence of Lebenon, the same reason Isreal is claiming to be attacking… also isreal did do an indiscriminant bombing on civilian centers so I would be a little quiet as your contry is quite literaly being the very open baddy in this situation
Obviously the UN is Hamas
I think you were joking, but thats what Israel has claimed, many times.
Israel calls UN a ‘terror organisation’ as tensions escalate over Gaza war
Ambassador to the global body accuses it of being a ‘collaborator with Hamas’
ft.com/…/f0945f3c-e4ab-4c04-8e1e-1e6f8397cb2c
Israeli terrorism has no boundairies and is not limited to Arabs.
The UN is clearly antisemitic.
/S (didn’t think this would be necessary)
That’s just bad hasbara
EDIT: After further research, and a few high-school level insults, I’m fairly certain, given the mind-boggling complexities of what went down in 1948, (like to what degree the British are to blame for however much of the violence, or how did the population of Arab-Jews factor into anything) that I am seriously under qualified to make the assessment that I made. I’m not sure anyone even can (although numerous books have written about it, one of which my Zionist parents tried to push on me), unless they were a truly neutral, on the ground observer at the time. (Maybe it’s another reason to have a different term, since saying it is loaded doesn’t even seem sufficient.)
I wish people would stop throwing around the term Zionist willy-nilly. It’s not accurate to the situation, and I don’t understand why it was twisted into this weird genocidal war-mongering meaning that has nothing to do with the word itself.Now, clearly, there is a large portion of the Israeli government/military/and I guess, population, that is intent on genocide and war mongering, and it’s sickening and they need to be stopped.
I just don’t like this term being used inaccurately. Maybe I’m being pedantic.The term “Zionist” itself does not inherently imply war-mongering or a desire for genocide. Zionism originally refers to the movement for the re-establishment of a Jewish homeland in what is now Israel, beginning in the late 19th century. It emerged as a response to centuries of persecution, including pogroms in Europe, and sought to create a safe, sovereign space for Jews.However, over time, some have associated Zionism, especially in its modern form, with certain political actions taken by the State of Israel. Critics of Israeli policies, particularly regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, may use “Zionist” to refer to those who support aggressive military actions or expansionist policies, which clearly are contributing to extreme violence and the attempted genocide of Palestinians. This is where the connotation of war-mongering or even genocidal intent comes into play, often in highly polarized or emotionally charged discussions.It’s important to note that many Zionists strongly reject these characterizations. They argue that Zionism is about self-determination for Jewish people. Equating Zionism with war-mongering or genocide often reflects political bias or misunderstanding of the broader spectrum of Zionist thought, which ranges from more moderate to more hardline positions.The term can thus be polarizing, with very different meanings and implications depending on the speaker’s perspective and the context.
Zionism is a settler colonial ideology that aims at creating a Jewish ethno-state in Palestine. It cannot exist without violence. You can’t colonize someone else’s land without violence, and you can’t commit this violence without rationalizing it through dehumanizing the colonized. The genocide against the indigenous Palestinians is the logical consequence of their dehumanization that spans now over more than a century.
I would love some citations, because my research did not indicate any kind of requirement for a Jewish ethno-state inside Gaza. Palestine and Israel are the same thing, so that’s what the settlement was about. Not Gaza.
Are you intentially being obtuse or just incredibly stupid? In order to create the Jewish ethno-state called “israel” the people who lived there were murdered, raped, and forcibly displaced. Furthermore, in the time since its creation, they have been excluded from having citizenship and representation in the government. This is known as apartheid. Within this ethno-state, these non-jews have continued to be evicted from their homes. And no, you subject changing genocide supporter, I am not talking about gaza or the west bank, though the crimes in those places are also numerous. So, again, I ask, when you make the claim that zionism is not a settler colonial belief, are you being intentionally obtuse or are you incredibly stupid?
So…that’s a no to any citations?
I’m not the same person, dumbass.
This is almost entirely false.
Yes, there have always been Jews in Palestine. The creation of Israel was an act by European zionists and the UK. Yes, when a foreign invader arrives and declares their own state (this after the land was taken from the ottomans by the UK) the local population and supporting neighbors tend to fight back. Would you accept foreigners coming to your country demanding it be partitioned? When only 64% of the population is allowed to participate in the government, the vast majority of them from one ethnic group, there is a problem. There is no path to Israeli citizenship for those in Gaza or the West Bank.
You clearly are a supporter of the geonicide, the settlements, the throwing Palestinians out of their homes, burning their fields, killing, raping, spitting on them as they walk the street below in jerseleum, and the myriad of crimes isrealis commit daily. You can not dismiss these crimes by belittling me, that only reveals you without your mask on.
No, the creation of Israel was an act of the UN. The UK had promised to help establish both Jewish and Arab homelands in the region. When the UK turned on the Jews and started restricting immigration, in the midst of the Holocaust, that’s when the Zionist militias fought back against the UK. Israel was actually created in spite of the UK, not because of it.
And there was no foreign invader. The Ottoman Empire, which controlled Palestine for hundreds of years, was a foreign invader. They lost control of the land in WWI and Britain took temporary control. Jews didn’t invade anything. They literally purchased land and moved in, like immigrants do. They had to establish a militia to protect themselves from Arab aggression.
Do you know how many countries in the world have been established through partition plans and political agreements? Why is that not good enough for the Palestinians?
Every citizen of Israel participates in government, Arabs included. To repeat: Palestinians aren’t citizens of Israel. The people of Gaza elected Hamas as their government, remember? Why should they have their own territory with their own government but also benefit from Israeli citizenship?
“You clearly are a supporter of the geonicide, the settlements, the throwing Palestinians out of their homes, burning their fields, killing, raping, spitting on them as they walk the street below in jerseleum, and the myriad of crimes isrealis commit daily.”
Pretty childish, which is typical of Palestinian activists. You know you don’t have the facts on your side so you resort to rhetoric, strawman arguments, and ad hominem attacks.
This isn’t about religion. Don’t use the word Jew or Arab. This is a conflict between Zionists and Palestinians.
And that shows just how little you understand about this conflict.
The ethno-state problem exists regardless of where you draw the lines. A state cannot be both designed for ethnic superiority and treat those from other ethnicities as equals. You can’t maintain that inequality without violence.
Because you genuinely seem to care I think 10 myths about Israel by Ilan Pappe would be a relevant resource. I think it’s a nice compromise between working scientifically (I.e. citing sources where necessary) and being accessible. It’s not a scientific book but it’s written by a credible Israeli researcher.
I will be honest, it’s very biased in a sense that it’s anti-Zionist. But I think once you read about the history of Zionism it’s difficult to remain unbiased about it.
That being said, a lot of damage has been done by the British before the establishment of Israel and a lot of damage has been done since it’s establishment, but the book also offers a perspective for moving on.
This perspective would be the establishment of an actual democratic state with equal rights for everyone and an acknowledgment of the rights of Palestinians to their land, their culture, and their history. Such a democratic state is possible, and it would not favor any ethnicity or religion. And here’s the catch: it would go against the Zionist ideology because it wouldn’t be a „Jewish“ state anymore (more like ethno-supremacist).
I hope that makes sense and I think other commenters may have snapped at you too fast .
You are the second person to recommend this. Not only am I going to purchase a physical copy, but I’m going to craftily leave it sitting on my parents’ coffee table when I’m done.
Honestly just read the raw facts on wikipedia about zionism and prominent zionists from the late 1800’s, clicking and reading the links about all the key events and people through to the creation of Israel, resulting Nakba, and everything since then. Just spending a few nights going down those rabbit holes — all very matter-of-fact and neither pro/anti either — is all that was needed to decide that this has been a planned genocide the entire time, and “radicalize” me against both Israel and zionism… and I’m an athiest who could not care any less about the ethnic “division” or religious fairy tale bullshit excuses anyone involved believes.
This is what I have been reading so far. There’s a lot to go through.
Go read Herzl writing about Zionism and Jewish people in general.
You people are like leftist zombies, you just mindlessly repeat the same phrases over and over and over again. Of course you can’t engage with the issues beyond your catchphrases and clam up as soon as someone starts challenging you.
And you’re making such a compelling counter argument.
And you’re a right wing troll
Precision in language is a worthy goal, and another thread and time would be a fine place for a discussion about Theodore Herzl being a gigantic piece of shit who was a wrecker for what may have been a nobler movement among successful high-status Jews in wealthier parts of the Pale of Settlement during one extremely narrow time and context.
Unfortunately, you can’t just start a conversation that’s the equivalent of “swastikas are good luck charms” without seeming like an asshole.
Oh I knew I would seem like an asshole. Fortunately this is the internet, and there aren’t really penalties for that (for better or worse). And yes, I am actually very intrigued by the discussion you propose. I’ve also been reading further after people started replying to my comment. I’m fairly certain, given the mind-boggling complexities of what went down in 1948, (like to what degree the British are to blame for however much of the violence, or how did the population of Arab-Jews factor into anything) that I am seriously under qualified to make the assessment that I made. I’m not sure anyone even can (although numerous books have written about it, one of which my Zionist parents tried to push on me), unless they were a truly neutral, on the ground observer at the time. I think I will append my comment, but leave it up, since I own what I said, despite how views can rapidly evolve.
Thank you for clarifying, and good luck on your quest. Arab Jews and local Palestinian Jews later termed Mizrahi were treated particularly awfully by the Zionists, there was even a false-flag Zionist militia bombing of an Iraqi Jewish synagogue.
For your earlier questions, I recommend chapters 1 through 6 of Ten Myths About Israel by Ilan Pappé if you haven’t encountered it already.
www.versobooks.com/…/2430-ten-myths-about-israel
The UN troops have the right to defend themselves.
Especially with the Leclercs.

What’s the cannon for?
Rapid demilitarization.
I don’t see how it would do that.
Edit: Unless you mean its for blowing itself up?
You clearly aren’t familiar with the French military beyond memes.
You just need to know 3 words.
Nuclear Warning Shot.
I’d like to be enlightened on the “nuclear warning shot” method the French have
en.wikipedia.org/…/France_and_weapons_of_mass_des…
Mechanically it’s a small nuke on a medium range Air to Surface Missile. They straight up told everyone it’s entire purpose is as “the last warning shot” before their nuclear missile submarines fire their entire load of nuclear ballistic missiles.
The other way I’ve heard the French cold war doctrine reasoned is, “we may not be able to stop the Russians at the Fulda Gap, but we’re all going to be picking through the rubble together this time.”
“We don’t want witnesses to our human rights violations. These ‘accidents’ will keep happening until you leave.”
Wait like the Actual UN?
I get that the UN has no real teeth, but the peacekeepers do have teeth.
The fuck is going on anymore. Like I get they have all sorts of freedom to fuck around because they have weapons given to them with no control over their use, but this seems to me they are truly beginning to test their fate.
Yeah, but this isn’t new. The Israeli paramilitary assassinated a UN mediator in 1948 because they were afraid his peace deal wouldn’t be good for the Israeli State
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Folke_Bernadotte
The assassination was organized by Yitzhak Shamir, who was later elected as Israel’s prime minister.
1948 is a big stretch for me to agree with “isn’t new.” No one alive today would have been influential then, and many countries have significantly changed in that region of the world since 1948.
Now if stuff like this happened in the 80s, then I’d say yeah, 100% this is up their alley.
oh it gets worse. The US is sending in ground troops to help. Missile defense ground troops, but ground troops all the same. When a few of them get killed (in some fog of war event, I’m sure) we’ll send in a large armed contingent to “protect our lads”.
My personal nightmare theory is Netanyahu believes one of two things. Biden will not stop him because he believes Israel must be supported at all costs or Biden believes he cannot take action against Israel until after the election. So it is Netanyahu’s goal to start a war with Iran before the election, and make sure the US is drawn in.
In this case we know the troops were not Biden’s idea. Netanyahu specifically requested them. And for either of the reasons above Biden immediately approved the request.
I sincerely hope it’s just depression thoughts. But I will not be surprised if we end up pulled into a war with Iran just before or during the traditional lame duck period. Obviously if Trump wins this is all even worse. But putting troops under Iranian missiles is a breathtaking escalation of the conflict.
I’m pretty sure the US is only interested in doing that to protect US assets in Israel. There’s a shitload of money and intelligence there,
But the part that bothers me is that Israel already has an insane missile defence system why the fuck do they need the US resources on top of that?
That is where sending in the US troops to get them attacked and justify a great war comes in.
Exactly the point, IMO. Hell, they even have a name for such a deployment: tripwire forces.
I wonder if tripwire forces get a special patch for their uniform.
It’s a little claymore pin. “Front Towards Enemy” takes on a whole new meaning.
Yeah. We’ve been warned multiple times over the past couple decades that the Israeli far right has expansion on the agenda. And we derided them as conspiracy theorists and/or terrorist apologists.
Well. Here we are.
I don’t know if anyone here is interested in uncomfortable facts, but I’ll try my luck: UNIFIL has been neglecting their job for the past 18 years, and especially in the past year. Hezbollah has been firing rockets on Israel daily, directly from UNIFIL territory, and UNIFIL has done nothing to hinder them. The IDF revealed yesterday, with video proof, the existence of a tunnel entrance into a Hezbollah bunker, 100 meters away from a UNIFIL base, and 60 meters from a UNIFIL guard tower. It’s becoming apparent that UNIFIL isn’t truly neutral, and if they are that neglectful or incompetent, staying there puts them at risk, while Israel fights back.
OK, sounds plausible enough…
You want to have your cake and eat it too. Why do you want the peacekeepers out? Why not coordinate with them?
“I was just taking my tank platoon for a stroll on your lawn”
Because the Peacekeepers aren’t there to fight a war, that’s not their role. The real question is, what are they still there for? There is no real answer from the UN about this. Their mission was to try to disarm Hezbollah, which they clearly they didn’t accomplish. Now Hezbollah is using the weapons the UN was supposed to remove (but didn’t) to fight the IDF. And the UN is apparently just going to leave Peacekeepers stranded in the middle of a warzone because they’re still pretending there isn’t a war happening? Or are they hoping for a conflict to occur between the Peacekeeping force and the IDF? Like is the UN now trying to escalate the conflict? Really, what are they trying to accomplish?
Sure, never attribute to malice that which can be explained by incompetence and the UN is a very incompetent organization. But this is getting so it goes beyond being able to be explained by incompetence.
Yeah, is the UN trying to escalate the conflict by being attacked, blown up and chemical weapon’d by Israel?
I bet that damn UN is going to get away with it too!
The UNIFIL mandate is clear and well known. You can read it for yourself if you actually cared. Hezbollah is not mentioned anywhere on the page funnily enough.
Maybe the zios should stop their genocide instead?
They want them out because they don’t want them caught in the crossfire. They serve no purpose there, so might as well GTFO before they get killed.
Why would Israel be shooting at peacekeeping forces???
Their job is to record war crimes. Israel doesn’t like when people record their war crimes. Thats why they’ve murdered hundreds (thousands?) of journalists
Also because we all let them get away with it with no consequences.
Well there’s some. France has stopped sending weapons. Ireland has issued sanctions. The South Africans have fucking brought them to court for genocide. Nicaragua just cut diplomatic ties.
There’s been varying degrees of consequences from maybe a quarter of the world’s countries.
But we need more, of course. Especially from the US.
They don’t want to be observed. Just as with Gaza where they won’t let foriegn journalists in
The UN Peace Keeping Force is there for a number of things, but mainly to Keep the Peace.
They help citizens in a crisis, they monitor for illegal activity (including war crimes), and help with aid distribution. Their efforts are being hindered by the idf:
Fun fact: an Israeli paramilitary assassinated a UN mediator in 1948 because they were afraid his peace deal wouldn’t be good for the Israeli State
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Folke_Bernadotte
The assassination was organized by Yitzhak Shamir, later elected prime minister of Israel.
Zionists have always been terrorists, attacking the UN since before they were even given an official State.
Im so shocked, its almost as if international law is made up by the global north in order to justify oppressing the global south while taking no accountability.
This is fucking disgusting, and a testament that Israel believes they have so much control over the narrative by Cambridge Analiticising the major social networks and their owners that they feel they can get away with it. If there’s one thing I agree with Israel now, it’s that the UN was certainly wrong - by choosing after WW2, to legitimize the Nazi Haavara Agreements on partitioning Mandatory Palestine and enabling the neocolonialism that became Israel hidden under the faint veil of religious superiority claims. What the persecuted minorities needed were their homes and their wealth back, not an appointed figurehead to lead them into colonialism 2.0.
They’re controlling the narrative by learning who will vote for who in the US by using “which harry Potter character are you” apps on Facebook?
I don’t see the connection between Israeli Hasbara and what Cambridge Analytica did.
Fucking terrorists
Netanyahu needs to be drone striked.
I’d rather he be dropped off in the middle of Gaza with no security. Let him sow what he has reaped.
They should have fucking M-Law’ed it.
.ml users called it over the weekend.
So the UNIFIL report just doesn’t mention the combat taking place so close to their base that an Israeli tank accidentally backed up into their main gate during retreat?
Yeah, sure.
So these cunts are attacking the UN now? Reign em in.
Aight boys open season on un bases declared, time to go in
