ShoeThrower@lemmy.zipto News@lemmy.world•‘Clouded in mystery’: how ICE became a rogue agency that does Trump’s bidding17·1 month agoYeah, its a real mystery. How did this happen?
ShoeThrower@lemmy.zipOPto politics @lemmy.world•Tarnished by Oct. 7, Netanyahu’s legacy may be reshaped by war with Iran6·1 month agoSuch a glowing review from a journalist seems a bit out of place, considering Netanyahu’s crack down on the press.
No mention that the IDF set a record in 2023 for most journalists killed by a single state, then set a new record in 2024. Well over 200 journalists have now been killed in this most recent conflict alone. In 2023, of all journalists killed worldwide, 75% were killed by the IDF. In 2024, the IDF killed 70%.
Also no mention of the mass censorship campaign and the intimidation tactics being used against reporters.
EDIT: And bombed and destroyed the AP offices in Gaza.
ShoeThrower@lemmy.zipto World News@lemmy.world•Israel strikes Iran, no US involvement, US officials sayEnglish1·2 months agoSo, in your view, intentionally killing civilians is OK if they’re Japanese, but not if they’re Palestinian.
Fascinating.
ShoeThrower@lemmy.zipto World News@lemmy.world•Israel strikes Iran, no US involvement, US officials sayEnglish0·2 months agoDo you not think that deciding to commit a war crime by intentionally targeting and murdering over 200,000 civilians, was perhaps a bad call?
Or perhaps intentionally targeting journalists, doctors, first responders, schools, hospitals, entire apartment buildings, is actually acceptable because the conflict will supposedly end sooner?
ShoeThrower@lemmy.zipto World News@lemmy.world•Israel strikes Iran, no US involvement, US officials sayEnglish0·2 months agoThat type of flawed logic is exactly what led to atomic bombs being used to kill hundreds of thousands of Japanese civilians, and is Israel’s supposed justification for their barbaric campaign against Palestinians.
The dems in congress are still supporting Israel as hard as ever. Why do you think Kamala, who hasn’t done or said anything since losing, would be any different? Are we forgetting she was VP and did nothing for an entire year of slaughter?
