As a wise man once said, if you wonder what you would've done during the Holocaust, you're doing it now.

"Nothing" The answer is nothing

It's sick that the US voted to give the Zionist regime billions on the same day that mass graves of people executed by Israeli soldiers are being uncovered.

[–] Maggoty@lemmy.world 16 points 10 months ago

We can still prevent that money from being released with the Leahy Law.

But we won't.

[–] melpomenesclevage@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago

yeah I can't really blame any foreign actor who blows up a bunch of Americans over this.

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 59 points 10 months ago (3 children)

This will be the news that causes the USA to finally tell Israel to stop, I’m sure.

Israel is a pack of lunatics.

[–] sndmn@lemmy.ca 18 points 10 months ago

A pack or war criminals.

[–] Nom@lemm.ee 12 points 10 months ago

After they just passed a bill to give them more money? I can't tell if this is sarcasm or not but I certainly hope so.

[–] ErilElidor@feddit.de 1 points 10 months ago

My feeling is the US feels they are too committed now to stop and just hope that Israel will stop by itself soon.

I'm not saying I like it, but it definitely feels like that...

They have become the very same people that once herded them into ghettos.

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

And herded them into camps to be starved and killed for no reason other than being who they are. Took less than a century to become who they hated the most.

[–] Aceticon@lemmy.world 55 points 10 months ago (2 children)

That's some proper Nazi shit from the "most moral army in the World".

[–] Silentiea@lemmy.blahaj.zone 16 points 10 months ago

"most moral army in the world" is a bit like the dryest lake.

[–] melpomenesclevage@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

literally all they do. the butcher's star means the same thing as the swastika at this point, and the Jewish people should probably take an example from the Navajo.

[–] Kalysta@lemm.ee 41 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Possible war crimes?? Israel hit war crime bingo in the first month and has been trying to get a full card since!

[–] melpomenesclevage@lemm.ee 3 points 10 months ago

also, they're playing on like ten cards, and won't be going home (also stolen, free space!) until they win on every single fucking one.

ISIS fights against all America's enemies. Syria, Iraq, Iran, Libya....

Thankfully israel funds ISIS by buying their oil. And ISIS decided to attack Iran, Syria and now even Russia! Very convenient people!

[–] nonailsleft@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It's weird your source is saying Israel was mostly buying ISIS oil, while the FT article they heavily draw from actually says most of it was coming out of Kurdish territories, with the funds being used for Peshmerga forces fighting against ISIS

Taking all reporting into account it looks like all the produced oil going through Turkish traders with nobody down the chain caring who they're funding

[–] Linkerbaan@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago (2 children)

The oil is extracted from Dir A-Zur in Syria and two fields in Iraq and transported to the Kurdish city of Zakhu in a triangle of land near the borders of Syria, Iraq and Turkey. Israeli and Turkish mediators come to the city and when prices are agreed, the oil is smuggled to the Turkish city of Silop marked as originating from Kurdish regions of Iraq and sold for $15-18 per barrel

It passes hands a few times to avoid direct links. Someone traced it back. Came from ISIS.

They used to. Now they don't.

[–] nikaaa@lemmy.world 22 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (9 children)

For real what is it with them, where are they even trying to go with this?

Edit: I mean the Israel army. What is their end goal?

[–] WanderingVentra@lemm.ee 38 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Isn't it obvious? Genocide. They want to be the next US, Australia, or Canada. Kill all the natives, or enough to make them not a threat anymore, and take all the land for themselves. Only difference we're supposed to know not to do that anymore.

[–] blterrible@lemmy.ml -3 points 10 months ago

You'll notice that the report doesn't estimate whether they died before or after Israel's incursion.

[–] Pilferjinx@lemmy.world 25 points 10 months ago

The extinction of the Gazan population and total annexation. That was the long plan anyhow.

[–] melpomenesclevage@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

do you seriously still have to ask?

[–] Z8A@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Total victory!
