It's tedious going "If Group X did this western politicians and pundits would condemn it but because Group Y did it they're fine with it" over and over again, but it's important to highlight these discrepancies because they show how we're being deceived.

 

Westerners are indoctrinated from birth into believing that they live in a society that is basically good with governments that, while imperfect, are still far superior to the tyrants and corrupt autocrats of the global south. In reality the western power structure centralized around the United States is the single most murderous and tyrannical force on earth by an extremely massive margin, but that obvious fact is always omitted from the indoctrination curriculum.

 

By pointing out the glaring discrepancies between the way the western political-media class responds to things like Israel turning electronic devices into thousands of bombs placed throughout civilian populations and the way they respond when other groups detonate explosives among civilians, you're helping to punch holes in the veil of indoctrination they have cast over our collective understanding of the world. The more you recognize that you only see your society as good and others as bad because of the way world events are framed by western news media and politicians, the closer you get to having your "Are we the baddies?" epiphany.

 

Hypocrisy and contradiction are not great moral evils in and of themselves, but they often run cover for great moral evils. The fact that we are trained to think about the world by people who facilitate great evils perpetrated by their own side when they'd condemn identical evils committed by their enemies shows that they do not stand against evil, and are deeply evil themselves.

 

Recognizing the problems in our world is the first step to solving them. That's what the propagandists and empire managers work to prevent us from doing, and that's what we try to do by pointing out the glaring plot holes and inconsistencies in their narratives over and over again.

I'm just amazed how fucked this is really. Obviously the main thoughts running through it are feeling sick at how many innocent people have been injured or killed, also though the blatant terrorism of it and the implications it could have for all of us. Even if Israel are done with this now we still need to know exactly how they did it and how people can have better protections from any gov or group doing something similar again. Sadly though it seems kind of like pandora's box might have been opened to some extent here where a lot of people are going to be wondering who's going to do this next at some point in the future, where, and with what electrical devices.

 

I'm sure many would say this current Israeli gov are on another scale of insane/evil and this kind of thing is unlikely to ever happen again, I feel fairly doubtful about that though at the moment. This really does seem like a game changing level of terror that'll have consequences in quite a few areas for a long while I think.

I can understand why a lot of countries aren’t vehemently opposed to what Israel is doing and appear broadly supportive of them. We are on the slope. It’s almost giving themselves permission to act in a similar way in the future.

hezbollah number two killed looks like. 

 

"During the 1980s, Aqil was a principal member of Islamic Jihad Organization—Hizballah’s terrorist cell—that claimed the bombings of the U.S. Embassy in Beirut in April 1983, which killed 63 people, and the U.S. Marine barracks in October 1983, which killed 241 U.S. personnel"

 

good riddance.

Only three kids had to die as well. Nevermind, bit of collateral damage I guess.

Filmed throwing bodies off buildings like rubble on a building site. I wonder do they do that in the Congo?

 It is my understanding that the 6 million people killed including 2 million children were all buried with full military honours in carefully tended war cemeteries. Obviously.

I don’t see how we come back from the stuff the Israeli government have been openly doing and/or boasting about.

 

The most unpardonable crimes portrayed live on your iPhone, there’s no getting away from the fact that it is evil.

The Nazis did it so it's ok.
