Tamimi: 'We will drink your blood; what Hitler did to you was a joke' - Lemmy.World

Her Instagram post, translated in the link: > “Come on settlers, we will slaughter you. We are waiting for you in all the cities of the West Bank. What Hitler did to you was a picnic. We will drink your blood and eat your skulls” She has since been arrested: * Jerusalem Post [https://www.jpost.com/arab-israeli-conflict/article-771867] * WSJ [https://www.wsj.com/livecoverage/israel-hamas-war-gaza-strip-2023-11-06/card/israel-arrests-palestinian-activist-ahed-tamimi-for-inciting-terrorism--l0PxIlkpeRmrODTVUoLw]

Now, imagine Jews having this sentiment towards Nazis during WW2.
Not even close.
Which line would they cross that you would consider too close?

Actual genocide.

Not just the realities of war that everyone wants to pretend is genocide. But actual genocide, where they intentionally target an ethnic group for extermination.

And before people try to point out instances of them killing civilians, those fall with in the realities of war. That’s what happens when their targets continue to use civilians has human shields. If Israel WAS intentionally targeting civilians with the intention of extermination, the body count would be much, much higher. But they aren’t.

If Israel WAS intentionally targeting civilians

I guess you’re just ignoring them openly admitting targeting refugee camps and schools.

Keep up the mental gymnastics, you’re doing great

Again, these are the sad realities of war when your enemy continues to use places like schools to hide.

Here’s a thought. Let’s say Israel WAS just intentionally targeting citizens with the goal of genocide. If that’s the case, why do they suck so much at it? They have the ability to completely level Gaza. It would be over in a week. Why does it look like they are picking specific targets and not carpet bombing the whole area?

Gunning down journalists isn’t the “sad reality of war”. It’s an intentional war crime that also helps them control the narrative so people like you will get tricked into thinking the IDF isn’t a barbaric organization that kills indiscriminately.
Again, if they kill indiscriminately, why do all their targets appear so discriminate?

Because that’s the reporting you’ve looked at. If you’re talking about the journalists they’ve sniped and bombed then yeah those were very intentional. Aside from that they very clearly don’t mind huge collateral when they strike Palestinian homes so in that respect, yes it’s very clearly indiscriminate.

This line of argument is curious though. Do you think that if their war crimes were deliberately done instead of indiscriminately would that absolve them in your mind?

Because all you’re doing is dancing around this human rights atrocity with semantics.

No no. Do not move the goal posts. This isn’t about war crimes. They absolutely are guilty of war crimes. But that’s not what we’re discussing. We are only discussing genocide.

A question was posed, what is the line that would make someone consider Israel’s actions to be on par with Nazi’s? My line was actual genocide. What Israel is doing just doesn’t fit that definition.

Only one side has been launching attacks with the sheer goal being “do as much damage and kill as many people as possible” and it’s not Israel.

"Don't move the goal posts, ignore me plugging my ears and shouting 'I CAN'T HEAR YOU I AM THE GOOD GUY'." Got it.
How fucking awful of me to stay on topic.
