Rules:

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.

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.

I've been calling this man a war criminal for almost my entire life and it's good to see the ICC figuring it out

More people need to watch the interviews with former IDF soldiers. They openly talk about doing things to Palestinians in West Bank that are war crimes. They also say they do these things routinely. Even the arrest policy is a war crime because they aren't turned over to the PA, they have to go in front of an Israeli court. If they go in front of a court at all, instead of being indefinitely detained.

There's that documentary with the old timer IDF members laughing about slaughtering people and raping young girls during the Nakba.

When we see these kinds of people act on their inclinations in society, whether it be they chop up their wife or kill a bunch of kids at a daycare, people react with horror. They do it as part of their time in the military and a lot of people just accept it. Same sociopaths doing the same horrible stuff though either way you cut it.
