Israeli army takes Gazan doctor at a hospital, tortured him, then brought him a tablet showing a livestream of his home, called in a strike that killed his six-month-pregnant wife, and made him watch until the rescue crew pulled her body from the rubble

~~I think they said you should start at the 17 minute mark~~
Following Miz's advice, start at the 20 minute mark
Wellll this is some shit I didn't fucking need to read
This is the kind of shit would make up about Kim Jong-un
It really feels like they're trying to do a kind of "refuge in abhorrence" of their actions or something, where they do some so disgusting, so cruel, that it becomes unbelievable to people with any kind of empathy. That they can just easily dismiss their own actions as "Hamas propaganda" by saying "no one is that evil."
Of course, I don't think this would really work, since the west is constantly accusing their enemies of vague imagined evils, and even your average is already primed to believe this sort of evil exists in the world, because they are asked to imagine it all the time.
It almost feels like it is part of a greater project, since a lot of western propaganda relies on "We may not be perfect, but the enemy is even worse!" having Israel normalise such deplorable acts will just be used to further normalise them at home, and the west will justify it by accusing their geopolitical enemies of still being "worse" than the most heinous and cruel shit people can do. I think they may have already hit their limit with this sort of thing though, Israel is too openly and proudly cruel and sadistic, and the only way someone can believe the western narrative about their enemies now is if they choose to be as hateful and willfully ignorant as possible, and those sorts of people never actually cared about crimes against humanity anyway, they treat it like a team sport where "their team" just needs to "win" by any means.
Death to Isntreal
Genuinely an unfathomable level of evil what the fuck
unfathomable
This is too true; I genuinely can't imagine what's going through their head that they would do something like this. I've heard a handful of stories coming out of that prison, and it's impossible to put yourself in the headspace of that kind of evil. Settler colonist mentality is monstrous, and literally unfathomable to the average person. The only other place I read of with people like this were literal nazis; I recall something Philip K Dick once mentioned of something he'd read in a nazi's diary: that the nazis in the diary were upset that they were being kept awake at night by the cries of starving Jewish children. I'm also reminded of a former nazi who was secretly interviewed who'd been serving as a mercenary in Africa who was gleefully recounting the evil they'd been committing.
I don't understand these people, I genuinely can't imagine seeing people the way they do.
Even if I were evil, I wouldn’t be this fucking evil.
When I imagine being evil, I don’t fucking come close to this.
The depravity.
that the nazis in the diary were upset that they were being kept awake at night by the cries of starving Jewish children
I read about the Einsatzgruppen - first wave mass-murder squads that the nazis deployed as they pushed east & west, often rounding up anyone deemed undesirable in any village they came across and shooting them in a field.
This system of serial extermination was found to be inefficient, due to the fact that the goons doing it were getting traumatised by having to personally execute thousands of people. It's part of what led to the gas chambers - a method of killing removed enough from personal involvement that nobody feels (as much) guilt.
Impersonal, remote airstrikes - especially via drones - are a normalised modern day incarnation of the same idea.
No words…I hope there’s a hell just so these people can burn for eternity
Literally bond villain levels of outlandish evil.
you can start at 20 minutes, 17m to 20m is not about this
