What a shit article. All she did was support the Palestinian cause and now they’re putting shit in her mouth (no pun intended).
I don’t like how the narrative is being forced in this conflict. They are clearing the way for something very sinister. We’re about to witness a western sanctioned genocide. There’s no way Israel is letting this opportunity go.
Something is going to happen soon in the West Bank too, I call it.
you mean another Western sanctioned genocide?
China with Uyghurs has been going on for a while with no response from the west.
Saudi Arabia, UAE etc wih Yemen, the weapons were sold for ot by the west.
I’m not sure how you consider the Uyghurs a western sanctioned genocide, if anything it’s only the western media that is drawing any attention to it whatsoever.
no sactions though, are there?
So… The west is the only one who gives a damn, but somehow it’s their fault because they’re not doing enough?
does the west give a damn though?
media reporting it I don’t really qualify as giving a damn.
I would also wager that if I go out on the street here in slovakia and start asking people about it most people would look at me like an idiot and say, WTF is “Uyghurs”?
Slovakia is like, the most eastern of the West
So solidarity with Israel is “cool” and “supporting the cause” but god forbid you actually say something for the oppressed. Fuck them
What does that have to do with her explicitly stating her approval of the execution and murder videos?
“If you can look at the situation and not be on the side of Palestinians, then you are on the wrong side of apartheid and history will show that in time,”
This post on her part was fine, but the other one…not so much. She should have stuck with this one only, rather than whatever the frick murderous thing that other post was.
Keep in mind she was a Lebanese refugee that lived through the conflict between Hezbollah and Israel. I’m not condoning anything she said but she has a somewhat understandable view of the whole situation.
lived through the conflict between Hezbollah and Israel
And what about the conflict between actual Lebanon and what became Hezbollah?
So it justifies murdering children. Got it. We know where you stand!
Israel just murdered 200 children in 3 days, so far. Was that justified?
Oh, but they’re Palestinian so they don’t count. Otherwise people like you would have lost their minds decades ago.
When the Hamas murders children it’s terrorism, it’s an atrocity, it’s inhuman (and I agree).
When the IDF murders children it’s Tuesday.
It’s on the news every day. And people like you couldn’t care less.
Keep chewing on that nice Zionist propaganda. I choose humanity.
Why can’t we condemn both?
Hamas committed atrocities and Israel has responded with atrocities. That doesn’t make calling Hamas “freedom fighters” in this context any less deplorable.
Is there a quote for the other post? I heard it was just paraphrased, so we don’t know what she actually said
Can someone please tell the freedom fighters in Palestine to flip their phones and film horizontal," she wrote on the platform on Saturday.
That’s all. If you’re very inattentive or deliberately misinterpreting her words, you’d think that she was endorsing Hamas as “freedom fighters”.
But if you DO pay attention and know anything, you’ll notice that she never mentions Hamas and know that Hamas aren’t usually the ones filming any of their atrocities. Add her clarification from a few days later and it’s clear that she did NOT endorse Hamas and is the victim of character assassination because she had the temerity to speak up against the apartheid regime:
I just want to make it clear that this statement in no way shape or form is [inciting] spread of violence," she said. "I specifically said freedom fighters because that’s what the Palestinian citizens are… fighting for freedom every day.
I’m confused. Who else is fighting besides Hamas and the IDF?
There are other kinds of fighting than violence on a grand scale. Regular Palestinians are fighting the apartheid regime in ways big and small every day.
Thanks, that’s pretty much what I figured you’d say. The down vote was a nice touch.
Yeah, I have this odd quirk of downvoting sealions when they ask bad faith questions with obvious answers that they refuse to accept. I’m kooky like that!
How do you distinguish between a good faith question and “sealioning”?
