Palestine

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'm still not entirely convinced by their debunking of the rapes(, not that i care, murder is worse than rape, being tortured dozens of minutes beforehand is still only marginally worse in comparison to the eternity of death, and we(sterners) have done so much more barbaric in our "prisons", sometimes for years), but i can't trust our journalists who don't have the necessary time to investigate before publishing, nor Israel who lies at least as much as our western governments(, if not even more).

According to Paul Linebarger, atrocity propaganda leads to real atrocities, as it incites the enemy into committing more atrocities, and, by heating up passions, it increases the chances of one's own side committing atrocities, in revenge for the ones reported in propaganda.[5]

You don't have to quote Nietzsche to tell us that lying is not a good look

Yep, even if it was to underlined that they continued to lie afterwards, the documentary could have talked about the famous instance of the "Hamas calendar"(, i don't remember all of their lies), that hospitals or civil structures' destruction was justified because it was a "Hamas base", or when they said that it was a headquarter and they faked tunnels, or said that they found weapons in the m.r.i. room, and many more, this documentary only focuses on the 7th of October, but it'd been nice to list of the lies shamelessly brought in any conflict.
