Israeli official organizes 'prison tour' for Jewish settlers to observe torture of Palestinians

https://thecradle.co/articles-id/36182

Israeli prison authorities gave a tour of a maximum-security facility to Jewish settlers where they held a “Torah lesson” and observed the abuse of Palestinian prisoners, Israeli media reported on 23 February.

Kobi Yaakobi, head of Israel's prison system, invited 20 members of the synagogue in Har Homa, an illegal West Bank settlement near Jerusalem, on a “safari” tour of Nitzan maximum-security prison.

Palestinian detainees, including alleged members of Hamas's elite Nukhba forces, were handcuffed and forced to lie on the ground to be observed by the visitors. The Jewish settlers ate an “indulgent lunch” in front of the prisoners, who were fasting for the Islamic holy month of Ramadan.

The settlers also “blessed” the prison guards.

I couldn't find anything about the Nazis doing concentration camp tours so Israel is one-upping them in some aspects.

I was literally thinking this last night after I saw that some settlers showed a hostage a livestream of his home and then bombed his pregnant wife in it.. I think we're at the point where we can definitely say that Israelis are worse than the Nazis now

Nah. Nazis killed millions.

Like... You do that fallacy thing when you just call random people Nazis.

Like Donald Trump killing usaid? That's killed millions. That's some Nazi level shit.

Just mathematically... Respect the difference of not one but two orders of magnitude.

At this point, considering the length of time involved in Zionist organizing to grow their sphere of influence, millions have died by proxy.

You might be the one having trouble with numbers, the difference isn't counted by orders of magnitude, I'm not gonna show my shitty napkin math but I suggest you rather do yours counting excess mortality per capita per year, I found something along the lines of 5x, and with current trends they're gonna catch them fast.

This is very impressive without war economy nor gener drafting, thanks to the US and EU.

Some people clutch their pearls nowadays at how the Soviets dealt with Nazis, but seeing the modern equivalent to them with our own eyes proves that the Soviets were being very merciful to those monsters

I'm reminded of that quote from Black Jacobins about the Haitian revolutionaries:

"When history is written as it ought to be written, it is the moderation and long patience of the masses at which men will wonder, not their ferocity."

Great quote and by now I think (thank fkn god) the majority of people run out of patience. Problem is israeli infected all the decision makers, politicians, media personalities through money and blackmail. Luckily i know a medicine, a one time capsule.

Scaphism. I would also extend that to all the collaborators and clients in the Trump-Epstein-Israel-AIPAC pedo ring.

all of the neighboring countries have american backed dictators & monarchs in charge, except for lebanon and it gets bombed & destablized frequently for not bending its knee enough.

Israel is an American satellite. Israel is not in charge, it is just a tool the US uses to advance its own interests in the Middle East. Israel and America are sisters in the fact that they are settler colonial projects that rely on genocide to exist.

What part? That the US and Israel rely on genocide to exist? That without US aid Israel would cease to exist? That the US uses Israel to advance its interests in the Middle East? (Especially with recent events unfolding that should be more abundantly clear than ever)

This is genuinely a baffling level of ignorance. I was going to engage in good faith but like… you’re not even at the geopolitical awareness of a middle schooler yet.

If true, this is abhorrent. If false, the fact it is so believable is somehow more disturbing.
