We have all seen the video of her broken body being paraded through Gaza and the people spitting on her. Hamas did that and they brought death and destruction to Gaza.
Hamas AND Israel both brought death and destruction to Gaza. Palestinian children are not bombing themselves now.
It is sadly the reality of the situation. Only someone fucked up can see that and the other videos from that day (example the slaughtered elderly at the bus stop etc) and think “Oh Hamas are the good guys.”
It’s reality. You want to understand the hatred felt by everything in that region? You have to watch it uncensored.
so the past 50 years of the gaza strip being bombed by israel have not brought death and desctruction to gaza? that’s ignoring the constant blockades and other restrictions israel put on gaza as well.
I mean, the main start of the conflict was over 70 years ago. I’m not sure if Israel really comes out looking that much better.
They unilaterally declared themselves a state and ended up expelling over 700k people from their homes. They even utilized biological warfare, poisoning wells with typhus.
While there have been crimes against humanity committed by both sides, the reason people focus on Israel is that they are in the sole position of power. Palestine has no way to barter or negotiate, and when all other forms of discourse are eliminated, then the only option is violence.
Truth be told, I am not old enough to have cared about issues like this pre 2010. So what exactly do you think justifies israels behavior here? What happened before 2010 that shows that Palestine is the aggressor?
“It is kind of more complicated than that” when it is really not!
let me just start with this postulate:
- palestinians: natives
- israelis: colons
Should I add than one is heavily militarized and has control over infrastructures?
That’s wrong though. Palestinians and Israelis both stem from ancestors from the area. You could even say that at least in Jerusalem the Palestinians came later.
Have you seen videos of Israelis cheering every time they hear bombs exploding in Gaza?

I mean after what happened it’s going to turn a lot of people dark. No different than in the states after 9/11. I legit know people that signed up just to “kill some sand you know what’s to get pay back”. That’s fucked up yes. And wrong. But hardly unexpected just like I expect citizens of Gaza to enmase celebrate the death of Jews now.
Fuck Hamas. They are a blight on the Palestinian cause.
Edit: Typo
This is news because she was one of the first videos that went viral that day. And to this day there are still people denying it that she died and that she is home safe. There was even a so called interview with her mother who said she was alive. They even went so far to say the truck video was them bringing her to a hospital (ya know because you beat half naked in her underwear body with your sandals to administer first aid).
The Internet used “her being alive” as one of the first propaganda pieces to try to paint the photo that nothing happened Oct 7 and Israel are all liars.
Turns out it’s exactly as the videos made it look. Just like the woman being led into a jeep with dark drried blood all over the ass of her pants was probably bleeding from mass rape even though the Internet tried to find every excuse for their behaviors.
Please, add more add more, we must make the most of Hamas! Did Hamas ate her too? You know, we still have room for Israeli delirium.
You are all so ridiculous with your tabloid stories to hide the criminal acts that Israel is committing.
“A german-israeli woman dead”
“+3000 children smashed under bombings”
“yeah, but Shani Louk! and you, come about people without name and sexy photo!”
She was one of the women raped to death and then paraded through the streets. That and she was a foreigner.
I’m not familiar with the story. Are you saying that she was paraded after her death?
Edit: Nevermind. I saw the video just now. I’m at a loss for words to describe people who do this to innocent civilians.
Imagine you have an invisible man in the sky who approves of everything you do and will make sure that when you die you go to a happy land forever. Now you understand.
Here’s one right here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-67266873
Post it, upvote it, give it it’s own thread. Both tales are appalling.
Nope it ain’t, and it’s mostly sensors and cams. Guards weren’t missing, it was religious holiday and most of the IDF came back home. A lot of paragliding recreations occur often and Hamas used this opportunity to their advantage. I know these things because I know few people who work in the IDF. I’m not jewish but I live in Israel for my job. The wall is mostly fence, and only in important places it’s a wall.
I assume you know that more than half a million Palestinians cross that border every day… it’s not that strict. Although from now on it might be
The “wall” is a chain link fence, Hamas just cut it down where they wanted to sally out through
i assume a lot of it is high tech and sensor based, that can all fail with hacking or bad interpretation of the data. Also, the infiltrators likely first flew over the fence and possibly disabled parts of it once they were inside to allow others to come in the conventional way.
I’m very saddened to hear about the death of this young woman. I’m also sad to hear about deaths of many, many Palestinians. I do not think it’s coincidence that Hamas decides to launch a major offensive in the midst of talks with between Saudi Arabia and Israel to normalize relations between the two after many years of relative peace. We can’t have peace in the Middle East because it doesn’t serve the ends to the major regional powers.
Both sides in this conflict are used as pawns for the political ends of others. Innocent people are those that get caught in the midst of it all. Hamas didn’t do this without a green light so as much vitriol being spilled in this thread we have to take a step back. These fights have been brewing and going on for generations. If you take the short term view much of the strife we see today is the fallout from WWII and that is used as leverage by other nefarious parties.
It’s not the Israeli people’s fault they do not have a home. It’s not the Palestinian people’s fault they do not have a home.
Some of the comments in this thread are sickening, hateful, narrow, and short-sighted.
I don’t think it’s right to nonchalantly compare the Palestinians as the citizens of a nation and Jews as an ethnic group. It seems a bit… racist?
From what I understand it’s not the Palestinians fault they don’t have a home, and that’s in large part due to Israeli Zionists.
they have a home, and they’d have a country if they just said “yes”
Jews are most assuredly an ethnic group. One Hamas intends to commit genocide against.
"I invaded your land and occupied it and killed your family, but you didn’t say yes when I offered you a piece of your land! You’re a terrorist! "
Palestinians weren’t citizens of a nation and than got invaded by Zionist Jews someday. Israel, Gaza and Westbank (now called Palestine) were created in that area which was called Transjordan at the time. And Israelis and Palestinians come from a similar group of people who has ancestors in the area.
The influx of Jews to the area was a result of World War 2 and the exile of Jews in some of the surrounding countries.
You are seen as a “Palestine refugee” btw, when your father was a Palestine refugee. It’s not exactly a citizenship.
Tragic. Her poor mother stuck not knowing for 3 weeks… my heart goes out to them.

Yes, more tragic than this mother wearing her baby in her arms smashed by a - supposed - legal entity.
A civilian life is a civilian life but here, it is not me who breaks the balance! Disgusting!

can you point to the specific sentence where they even implied this, or are you actually just throwing a tantrum because someone said ‘man getting your daughter tortured and murdered must suck’
Take a breath. This is a human life that ended. Have respect and don’t diminish the loss. One day you will die too, and you would want people to treat your passing with respect and honor, not a talking point.
There are thousands of other threads you can hash out the unfairness of apartheid, and the realities of struggle, this isn’t the right place for that.
I am not diminishing her death. At this stage, it is indecent to talk about her death - and use it by the way in the most grossy way - while the Israeli army is stomping civilians, like deaf.
If they wanted to save her, the approach would have been:
- to cease bombing OR
- be real men and going on the field, not killing kids.
