ISRAELI RESERVISTS REFUSE TO FIGHT IN REPORTED "BURNOUT"

The Israeli Channel 12 media outlet is reporting the refusal of a reserve company of 30 soldiers to continue fighting in the Gaza Strip due to reported "burnout".

According to Channel 12, the soldiers belonging to a reserve company of some 30 soldiers, attached to the regular paratrooper brigades, received orders this morning to prepare for further deployment in ground operations in Gaza's southern city of Rafah.

Following receiving their orders, the company of soldiers informed their commanders they would not be participating in the actions because they were "no longer capable."

The commander of the brigade responded by saying he would not force the reservists to appear and that no operational gap will be caused by their refusal to participate, however, the commander agreed that issue reflects a high attrition rate among reserve forces after several months of fighting.

The company's commander added that he was "not doing this because I like guns. Not because I'm looking for peace from my wife. Not because I find personal satisfaction [in Gaza]. I'm doing it because I have to, because my brothers and sisters are kidnapped And that we are in the second state of the State of Israel and it will continue to be painful and difficult."

The irony of saying #landback and “we live on stolen land” while condemning Israel’s existence is so strange.

You want land to go back to the natives - no matter how long ago the land was taken - unless it belongs to Jews. Then they can go F off.

And because you don’t have a reasonable defense for this weird combo of beliefs, you just deny the indigeneity of Jews altogether. This is something that can be proven with simple google searches and logic. Our ancient artifacts and structures are in the land, and our “origin stories” are largely about the land and us residing in it. Yet, you refuse to believe we are indigenous.

Even more funny is that you then argue Arabs are the real indigenous people to this land. Arabs are colonizers in the Middle East and North Africa. Arabic is a colonial language. They originated in the Arabian peninsula, and took over MENA countries. They had nationalist policies that largely eradicated the people and/or cultures already present in those lands. A lot of the people present were Jews, who were killed or driven out by pogroms.

Educate yourself for crying out loud.

I’ve said it before, but

Can anti Zionists here please realise that most Israelis hate our government too!!!!

-They were elected after 5 elections in a few years , and not by a majority.

-we’re not a fan of the extremist members of the Knesset either… there were protests from the moment they were elected , especially since they tried to overturn the “reasonableness” law.

-In fact, there were weekly protests for almost a year - up until October 7th… they’ve resumed in the last few weeks though.

Actually, self-defense does entail the use of white phosphorus as it is used in the destruction of enemy emplacements, area denial, and, believe it or not, smoke screens, which don't even harm people...

Tell that to the fucking Palestinian terrorist cunts who specifically targeted such places during their attack. Also, perhaps don't use them as terrorist strongholds?

Nerve gas has yet to be used so fucking talk to me when it's more than a discussion, eh?

If the enemy is using such luxuries to cause harm to you and your people, then yea, it is of utmost importance to cut off their supplies. An army without supplies is weak, even Sun Tzu knew that in 475 BCE...

Lastly, this isn't genocide, rather is defense, so learn some fucking military strategy and current events before making these dumbass false claims, thanks!

Israeli forces are deliberately shooting at Palestinian paramedics

“It’s not just the frequency of the attacks that has changed, Jumaa said, but the nature of the injuries too. ‘Israeli forces used to shoot Palestinians in their legs, but now intentionally shoot them in the neck or chest, which involves a more serious threat to their lives,’ she explained. During Israel’s raids on Jenin last month – the largest attack in two decades – she operated on three people with neck wounds. Recently, she said, she has also seen a significant number of children among the injured. ‘It is particularly distressing for me, as a mother.’

“Sometimes Jumaa is herself a target; as the attacks on Palestinians intensify, so too do attacks on ambulance workers trying to assist the injured. The Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS), has recently recorded incidents of Israeli soldiers physically assaulting medics and targeting their ambulances with live ammunition, rubber bullets and tear-gas canisters. In total, there were 193 incidents targeting staff and vehicles in 2023 – a 310% increase compared with the same period last year. 

“During the attacks on Jenin last month, Israeli soldiers killed eight Palestinians and injured 50 more, the Palestinian Ministry of Health reports. Israeli forces also directly targeted two ambulances belonging to the PRCS with live ammunition. Jumaa, who was in one of these ambulances, said that Israeli forces shot at the engine of the vehicle in order to disable it.

“Several health workers who spoke to Novara Media reported recent incidents of occupation forces blocking ambulances from reaching the injured and from getting them to hospital. 48-year-old paramedic Waleed Abu Alhaija recalled coming within a metre of a casualty in Jenin last month, only for an Israeli sniper to open fire, warning him and his colleagues against evacuating them. ‘The four of us paramedics suffered injuries from shrapnel from the sniper’s fire,’ he said. ‘The injured person continued to bleed until he died.’”

|||TRIGGER WARNING: War, Israeli/Palestinien conflict, terrorism|||

Controversial, yet brave take: Is Hamas a horrible organization? Yes. But would they exist if it wasn’t for Israeli *government* agression? Absolutely not!

Should innocent people have been brought into the conflict? No, not at all! But to paint Palestine as the main aggressors, while Israel has been doing the exact same shit to them for the past however many years is plain stupidity. And the American Government trying to virtue signal, while being completely silent about Israeli war crimes is quite hysterical.

Fuck Zionism

Free Palestine 🇵🇸

[secular-jew]

Let's break this down:

7,720 civilian casualties over a 6 month period, in an urban war where the terrorists hide behind and use civilians as shields.

Important to note as we analysts do: Consider that the estimated 7,720 civilian casualty count is undoubtedly overstated, since 1) some Gazans have been killed by Hamas - such as the ones who don't comport to Hamas's demands, the ones who are found to be deemed homosexuals, the one's who are found to complain about Hamas, or the hungry who try to receive food-aid donations and since 2) many of rockets fired by Hamas and Islamic Jihad (some estimates are as high as 25%), misfired or fell short, landing in Gaza!

But even if every dead civilian was a result of Israeli military activity. The ratio of civilian to combattent casualties -- is roughly 1/2:1 -- that's ONE HALF to one. 1/2 dead civilians form collateral damage, to 1 dead militant terrorist.

This would be an absolute record low ratio in urban warfare history, where one typically sees ratios as high as 10:1. especially where the one side - the terrorist side - hides behind civilians and kills civilians who don't support them or who complain about them.

“Israel should be charged with war crimes!!”

But not Palestine? Not Hamas - the elected government of Gaza?

How about Russia? They bombed maternity wards and orphanages. Why aren’t the leftists demanding their war crime trial? The double standards are getting old.

Everything you complain about with Israel (if true) is exactly what Hamas and the Palestinians have been doing to them as well.

“Israel has wiped out entire families!” So did Hamas.

“Israel is bombing Gaza!” Palestine is bombing Israel (and, ironically, Gaza as well).

“An IDF soldier raped someone!” Hamas employed mass rape as a weapon of war against Israeli women.

“Israel is trying to wipe out Palestinians!” Hamas is trying to wipe out Jews.

We can keep going on this. The list goes on. Not only that, but multiple other countries have employed such tactics against their own people and other countries. Not a single cry for war crime trials.

If the situation weren't so dire it would almost be comical at how White House staff can expect people to believe that this was all an accident. The people killed had literally told the IDF their route and where/when they would be at every place they went to. On another platform they are now trying to change tactic and claim that......you guessed it, a Hamas member was in the 3 car convoy. I'm just speechless sometimes at the absolute BS they expect people to believe.

L Zionist + L for overshadowing actual antisemitism by saying that calling out fascist and racist imperialism is antisemitism when you know in your heart it isn't + L bozo + L Israel propaganda believer (it's such an obvious lie like how are you this dumb) + Isnotrael + free Palestine + fuck u for good measure

Let's unpack this one, shall we!

Zionist - I am! How did you know?

Overshadowing actual antisemitism - No, no, I think your rallies shouting 'Gas the Jews' and other genocidal slogans and chants is "actual antisemitism." What isn't anti-Semitism, you may ask? Defending the Jewish homeland and the people of Israel

Bozo - I mean, I'm not the dumbass who gets their information from Tik Tok then makes it blatantly clear by saying shot like this...

Israel Propaganda Believer (it's like an obvious lie) - Says the Hamas Propaganda Believer...? Are you joking? Hamas' propaganda is so fucking obviously faked! Take your beloved Mr. Fafo for example (See below!) who happens to be the Barbie of Gaza if she were an ugly, lanky propogandist

Isnotreal - Israel is internationally recognized as a nation, so it is pretty real. You wanna know what isn't tho? Palestine

Free Palestine - You're right! Free Palestine... FROM HAMAS!

Fuck you for good measure - you know, this is the most logical thing you've said this whole time! Great job!

To sum it all up,

Am Yisrael Chai!

No Ceasefire!

Bring The Hostages Home NOW!

We are joined by Antony Loewenstein — author of The Palestine Laboratory: How Israel Exports the Technology of Occupation Around the World — to discuss his extensive reporting on the Israeli occupation of Palestine, the policing tactics and surveillance technologies that are tested on Palestinians before sold as part of lucrative global export industry, and how the dynamics of occupation never stay within their cordoned zones but always expand to capture increasingly more people and places.

This came out five months ago, so before the current conflict. It was very enlightening and shattered a lot of the perceptions I had grown up with around Israel. Particularly, Israel's history of coopering with brutal regimes and their selling their skills and technology to the highest bidder. Oftentimes as a middle-man for the United States.
