One of the Israelis who got shot posted that he was the target of anti-Semitism and ends his message with 'Death to Arabs'
So basically, everyone involved in this incident is a terrible person. Lovely.
Get shot by Zionist for looking too Arab
Post "Death to Arabs"
Zionism is one hell of a cult.
Clown-on-clown violence
Did he get shot in the head, or was he always a moron?
Zionism is modern day nazism
Pretty sure that’s still just nazism
But Zionists are fascist
Lucky us we have both Zionist Fascism, and good old Classic Fascism to deal with.
Leopards, meet faces.
Because if they really were Palestinians, obviously that would've been perfectly A-OK?
This is the propaganda we are sold, yes.
Like all for all other Nazi-style movements, Zionists are going into the next stage of ethno-Fascism: the part were the Zionists start killing other members of the ethnicity they claim to represent for "not being White enough".
(Just go check how they treat Ethiopian Jews is Israel if you have any doubt that they're a white supremacist movement)
aren't israelis technically Palestinians since the region is called Palestine?
It'll be renamed to the "Holy Land of America" on Google maps any day now, so I guess they'll all get called "Ameristinians" as a catch-all term.
OBVIOUSLY /s
Israeli prime minister Golda Meir said she’s a Palestinian.
The use of the word Palestinian changed over time. Before the establishment of Israel Palestinian was often used specifically to refer to Jews living in the holy land. Lots of Jewish founded institutions like airlines, newspapers, sports teams, orchestras were named Palestinian. They changed their names after Israel was founded.
The Arabs used Palestinian as their national identity only after Israel was established. The Palestinian identity as we know it today coalesced in the 1960s.
Before the British Mandate for Palestine, the Arabs in the region tended to identify as Syrian.
Here a link: https://www.britannica.com/place/Palestine
which refutes your claims in the last sentences but surely why should we trust britannica over a zionism apologist who clearly is pandering to their political agenda.
Your link doesn’t say what you claim it does.
I can't teach you how to read honestly. You made some baseless claims without any evidence. I share a link that disproves your claims (btw I mentioned which in my previous comment). And your response is "nuh uh".
How could I quote something that’s not in the linked article?
Racists are never the sharpest tools in the shed. Most racist man I ever knew was never wronged by anyone except people of his own race, go figure.
at the core of every genocide is some sickeningly arbitrary difference that not even the people enacting the genocide can fully discern. Palestinians are indigenous to the Levant, just like Jews were. they just survived the ethnic cleansing enacted by the romans differently. similarly by both russia, and many Ukrainians telling of the origins of the rus, they originated from Kyiv. back in the 1930s and 40s, the Germans had to invent more and more arbitrary ways to identify Jews because since resettlement in Galitsye (today divided between Germany, Chzechia, Poland, russia, and Ukraine) Jews integrated themselves into the indigenous population (in large part thanks to unprecedented religious tolerance on behalf of the people of Galitsye and later Poland) meaning telling who was and wasn't Jewish was hard to impossible for the German officers responsible for deciding who to kill.
my point is this: arbitrarily killing Palestinians is antisemitic. it runs even a little deeper than simply "Palestinians are semitic, just like me" given that their cultural traditions are shared. it gets into violence against my sister is violence against me. harm against Palestinians is harm against Jews. once there are no more identifiably Palestinian people left to kill, next will come the Jews who aren't identifiably non-Palestinian enough. and who decides who that is? where does the killing stop?
the best way to avoid being killed in a genocide is to prevent genocide from happening. the second best way is to bring ongoing genocides to an end. unfortunately, it is falling to us, the populace, to defend ourselves from the military apparatus of the imperial powers of the globe. a great battle is about to unfold between the forces of good, evil, and indifference, just as it has approximately every 80 years throughout history. part of our aim in thi; battle is to preserve our message that we were here. that there was good in the world even at its worst.
i hope you've read a diary of a young girl by anne frank, and understand its gravity. it breaks my heart that a 13 year old saw all of what i'm seeing and chose to make her death meaningful as a story that passes this tale of resistance and kindness in the face of atrocity to me, but the point is that her voice made it through. so please, don't put her pain to waste. start taking actions you think 80 years from now someone who learns what you did during this time will be proud of, and find inspiring. even if it's something as simple as documenting the things you see, or growing food to share with your neighbors.
do what our ancestors did when faced with these times, plant trees the shade of which your physical body will never rest under
Careful. Zionists get very sad if you mention that Arabs are Semites.
Fuck the Zionists. FUCK THE ZIONISTS. Zionism is anti-semitic and not just because it's anti-arab. It's fuckin' anti-jewish.
I miss the old days when all racism was bad.
I assume if he had shot Palestinians like he thought he did, DeSantis would have given him some sort of award.
"Them wiggly letters and beards, they must be terrorists!"
it will be the year 9999 and we will still be reading about the "Man in Florida"
BTW Free Palestine
Anyone left at the justice department for those hate crime charges? Seems like an open and shut case
I love that, no matter who we elect, there's never any reasonable movement on gun control.
(That's sarcasm. I don't love it.)
Ahhh the ol shoot em all and let God sorry them out technique
Good thing this jackass had terrible aim.
He used 17 shots and the result:
sent the two victims to the hospital for their wounds, with one reportedly shot in the shoulder and the other hit in the forearm
So yes, that was lucky!
the suspect, 27-year-old Mordechai Brafman, who shot them 17 times, was charged with attempted murder.
So I guess the shooter was lucky too, he survived the arrest.
Did they condem Hamas though?
They literally did. One of the victims allegedly posted on Instagram some pics from the aftermath of the shooting and wrote "Death to Arabs" in Hebrew. Imagine the uproar and condemnation if someone posts the same slogan for them?
Its Don't mess with the Zohan all over again lmao
Stand your ground? Anyway, the differences between the brothers, Isaac and Ishmael, are minimal.

- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
