Israeli forces in Gaza destroyed the body of a Palestinian man by running him over either using a tank or a bulldozer, the Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor said on Friday.
The man is believed to have been in Israeli custody at the time or as of recently. It is not clear if he was alive or dead at the time he was run over.
Lemmy users when a contextless image of a dead Palestinian exists: “Noooo Israel stahp!!! They’re murderers!!!!1!!”
Lemmy users when a literal terror cell elected into office by Palestinians runs across the border to slaughter, rape, and kidnap thousands of women and children: “It’s self-defense guys, Israel is an oppressor.”
Sure looks like track marks on the shirt. Also looks suspiciously well lined up. Alive or dead, whoever did it did not deviate from their angle at all.
This guy almost certainly didn’t do any of that, if Hamas did or not. Fuck off. How about we hold you accountable for every crime every person of your nation is accused of.
“palestinians didn’t do any of that” Oh wow, talking about delusional deniers, you alJazeera Arabyia mouthpiece. Want me to send the videos the palestinians themselves filmed and shared on the internet on October 7th for all the civilized world to see, how “moral they are”? And they weren’t Hamas, they were civilians that joined the raping and pillaging across the border.
Dude, the IDF has been killing and raping people for a long time. Maybe you don’t hear about it, but that says more about you than them. It used to be easy to find (not sure it still is with the whole ware thing and all the war crimes being committed), and you can use whichever sources you choose. They’ll all admit at least the killings.
The most detailed eyewitness account of rape is from a young woman who attended the Supernova music festival where more than 350 young people were killed.
“They laid a woman down and I understood that he is raping her …they passed her on to another person“ the witness told police in a video reviewed by NBC News. “And he cuts her breasts, he throws it on the road they are playing with it.”
One of the videos posted to Telegram by Hamas shortly after the attack shows a young Israeli woman with bloodied sweatpants at her crotch. The video shows her hands tied and she is pushed into a Jeep with multiple jihadists. The woman is believed to be one of the remaining hostages still held in Gaza.
So these women are lying? The videos are fake? BBC, NBC and others all launched independent investigations and they are all lying?
No I’m not, that article has nothing to do with what I said. Also, the intercept is not exactly credible. “We also rate them as Mostly Factual in reporting rather than High due to previous fabricated work and censorship of writers.” mediabiasfactcheck.com/the-intercept/
As damning as the images are, let’s remember we live in an age of unprecedented misinfo. Which doesn’t just include fake images, but can also include easier things like lying about the context of the image. I don’t see any source other than this one and social media posts so that’s why I’m suspicious.
Edit: Ok my cautious uncertainty is being downvoted by the uncautiously certain. So maybe I need to do a better job of pointing out why this might be BS:
The picture has no context. We can tell it’s a slightly dark skinned person, which means it could be a Palestinian, or a Syrian, or an Iraqi, or a Houthi, or an Afghan…
But, you say…do we know of any other executions like this? Why, yes we do. ISIS certainly did this, there’s videos of it.
Of course, this all assumes the picture is real. And there’s really no guarantee it is. One problem I can see off the bat is that the prisoner has a zip tie on his hand, BUT it’s tight around his wrist, unlike how you’d imagine someone would be zip tied - around both wrists. Another problem is that the arm is intact, meaning he wasn’t zip tied around his back which is how it’s usually done. It’s possible this was a soldier run over by a tank in a combat zone, and the zip tie was added later. Or the whole image is fake. Or the whole image is real and there’s some reasonable explanation for the oddness of the zip tie, I really don’t know. But it at least might be BS on some level.
Strawman. I’m not someone who looks highly on how the IDF is acting. But these images cause an emotional reaction, and I can’t find the source other than a social media claim (on the most disinfo-friendly social media network) that itself cites hearsay. I’m not saying it didn’t happen, just that it has massive red flags and needs confirmation.
Yes, western media includes a lot more than safe stations like CNN. But furthermore, it could be any media, arab media like Al Jazeera, whatever. No one is posting about this other than on social media.
Counterpoint: the IDF is doing these things specifically to create anger and resentment because they need continued terrorism on Israelis to keep their casus belli in play. They’re provoking it so they can continue ethnic cleansing defending themselves.
I know the answer is probably ‘because AIPAC’ or some ass-covering legalese but that said i still take issue with the the picture confirms as fact that IDF crushed someone who was recently a detainee with tank treads.
Is the reader to suppose that after witnesses say he was detained and questioned, he was ‘freed’ before they crushed him and therefore it is his status as a detainee that is unconfirmed? This picture does not “suggest” anything.
I am struggling to understand the wording of this as anything other than journalistic deference to the state, though i suppose a more charitable take would be that nobody does any journalism besides the yellow kind.
Yellow journalism and yellow press are American terms for journalism and associated newspapers that present little or no legitimate, well-researched news while instead using eye-catching headlines for increased sales.
MEE is an incredibly biased and half truth organization. Will their be some truth behind this - probably, but consider them as accurate as timesofisrael…
