A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.
Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.
Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.
We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose "defence force"'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.

I don't understand why the Israeli military command doesn't crack down on these people. Why would you as a minister of defense or commander in chief allow some random infantryman that you have authority over to carry around mobile phones and post on social media like they were on a tour instead of a war?
Because they think they're in the right, won't lose, and are untouchable. They literally can't imagine that there will be consequences for themselves or these soldiers in the present or the future so they don't care what these guys do or show.
Yugopnik actually talked about this very thing in one of his videos.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
Low discipline due to conscripts and general lax behavior that the army has accrued over the years, they don't really fight but rather act as a police force to brutalize the populaace and sit in towers and snipe at children.
