One of the most terrifying images in history: Gaza transformed from life into death.

heartbroken!!

@streetartutopia nothing justifies this, and Israel should be held accountable like any other nation that does something like this. And until then, their tourists need to be confronted with their barbary everywhere they go.

@zeri Firstly: That comparison »is« devastating. Secondly: If you write "nothing justifies this" … would that count for the Hamas »as well« (which knowingly started this all with their October 7 attacks from 2023)?

@ojelabii @streetartutopia I not relitigating one horrible injustifiable crime with another. International Humanitarian Law is quite specific with regard to non-reciprocity. And If you insist we can start counting dead children, but it will only make me angry at you for being a defender of one horrible crime over another. Do you really want that?
No didn't think so, everyone gets their punishment for their own crimes ok?

[zeri@chaos.social]

@ojelabii @streetartutopia PS: sorry for offending you, but this stuff sounds like the bullshit my government is producing on the issue. It's always "but october 7th" meaning Palestinians get no justice, while Israel is getting a surplus.

[ojelabii@norden.social]

@zeri "not relitigating one horrible unjustifiable crime with another." The term "relitigate" is unfamiliar to me. If it means something similar to justify, than I have to contradict, that I haven't justified anything here (as I tried to explain in another long post, that has either been deleted meanwhile (or I may have been blocked), so that my response there has got lost. Pointing out that there may be war-crimes on both sides of a conflict isn't justifying though, I think!?

@ojelabii @streetartutopia means the judge doesn't care that other guy killed your cat when you torched his home in revenge. One gets to stand trial for animal cruelty the otehr gets to stand trial for arson.

[ojelabii@norden.social]

@zeri That wasn't offending in my understanding. We may just disagree. Disagreement isn't a bad thing, in my opinion. Disagreement may even be unavoidably necessary to speak with anybody outside ones own peer-group or "bubble". And to speak with one another is the only way I know of, to end a conflict … aside from using even more violence, that is to say.

This belongs next to a photo from Auschwitz.

Nobody can find one acceptable and not the other and not be the biggest fucking hypocrite the world has ever seen.

It's good when these zionists come outta the woodwork. Makes 'em easy to block.

"Do you condemn Hamas?"
What a fucking cliche.

Stop equating war (and potential war crimes) with planned, industrialized annihilation of people.
This is antisemitic bullshit. Period.

[amici@fribygda.no]

@ifrauding @leeloo

No it's absolutely not, on the contrary anyone who knows and understands the Holocaust immediately recognize the similarities. If you knew what's happening in Gaza you'd know it's at times just as cruel and just as inhumane.

Being killed by overwhelming firepower dropped from the skies, or starved to death, or raped by dogs in prison, because Palestinians lives are treated as completely unimportant - this is exactly the kind of inhumanity that we saw during the Holocaust.

Whether your skinny body is poisoned in a gas chamber or crushed under a building makes no difference to the victims.

Comparing Israel to Nazi Germany is absolutely insane.

Israel got away with it.

[iwein@mas.to]

@leeloo i think it's best to reject crimes on their own merit.

Israel did this. It's a war crime and a genocide. They stand accused by the ICC and rightfully so.

Bringing up Oct 7, or the Holocaust just provides irrelevant distractions from the very clear legal and ethical reality.

There's no excuse, no debate, no comparison, just judgement and punishment for them. The only place this should be allowed to be defended is in court in the Hague.

@streetartutopia

[ojelabii@norden.social]

@WindOfChange If you think so. One other already blocked me for being a zionist. I don't think, that I am, but those blocks make my life easier as well. Have a nice day nevertheless.

@streetartutopia Unless there's a fixed webcam that's miraculously stayed in place there despite every building around it being leveled then this is AI generated. Both images have pixel-perfect identical framing, which is impossible to achieve years apart even in perfect conditions. Given the abundance of genuine photographic evidence of the destruction of Gaza it seems unhelpful to spread AI-generated approximations that risk feeding zionist narratives about fabricated evidence.

[zeri@chaos.social]

@ojelabii @WindOfChange @streetartutopia yea well I get called an antisemite a lot and blocked too. Just take it in Germany being called a zionist is a lot less harmful than being called a antisemite. I take it it might be different if you live in Ireland or Spain. Get used to it people are not rational with this topic, which is understandable considering the mountain of corpses we are talking about.
