Only if it's the right type of cruelty

It wasn't even some random dog it was literally a military dog.

It was there to kill them.

Even if this is the first story about hamas that's actually accurate, they would, at worse, doing the same thing to the idf but using combat troops that the idf is doing to civilians using food and medical aid.

[–] Diuretic_Materialism@hexbear.net 45 points 3 months ago

Yeah, if the IDF had mounted cavalry would I be expected to condemn the Palestinian resistance for shooting horses? You deploy animals in a military situation you shouldn't be surprised if they get shot.

If I know the way the Israeli military hands out titles, there is no way that dog was anything less than a lieutenant colonel. Not exactly a civilian target.

I present to you the finest reason why !dogfree thinks so many people are cracked.

On the other hand:

Anyone changed their mind yet?

[–] coeliacmccarthy@hexbear.net 55 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

they truly think everyone else considers killing one combat dog to be equivalent to or worse than killing 20,000 arab children

[–] iByteABit@hexbear.net 43 points 3 months ago

Arab child is worth 1/20,000 of a dog according to lib maths

[–] Diuretic_Materialism@hexbear.net 53 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Lol, yeah I totally blame Palestinians for killing the dog trained to kill them, not the people who trained the dog to do that.

[–] What_Religion_R_They@hexbear.net 40 points 3 months ago (1 children)

hahaha wdym the dog just knows to kill children of darkness no one trained it to do that

[–] Diuretic_Materialism@hexbear.net 18 points 3 months ago

Ah yes cuz no Palestinian has ever owned a dog

People can get weird about dogs. I'm uncomfortable around them because I'm autistic and having them jump all over me and bark is a sensory overload nightmare, and my brother got mauled by a neighbor's dog so badly he had to go to the hospital, but some people take my unease as proof that I'm Satan incarnate.

EDIT: Also I dunno why it happens, but I swear dogs hate me lmao. I've lost count of how many times I've heard "I don't know what's gotten into him, he's not usually like this" while a dog is barking at me like I'm a Terminator.

[–] Acute_Engles@hexbear.net 36 points 3 months ago

Dogs read microexpressions and like you said a lot of psychos become uneasy when someone isn't into dogs so their dog realizes the owner is uneasy and thinks they perceive you as a threat.

Dogs behaviors are just an extension of their owner's biases

[–] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 23 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Yeah, I despise Israel more now that I know they're using dogs as deployable weapons, and then if the dogs die, weaponizing their deaths to get more liberal sympathy points

"Oh no our wholesome squad pupperino Cujo was killed (after he murdered several children) upvotes please"

[–] Tankiedesantski@hexbear.net 18 points 3 months ago

Idea for a bit: the DogFree vs ChildFree Israel/Palestine posting wars. ChildFree adopting a Zionist position for being pro dead baby while DogFree becomes Hamas supporters for shooting IDF war dogs.

I blame IDF for sending dogs there.

[–] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 45 points 3 months ago

I blame the IDF for existing

[–] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 43 points 3 months ago

It is not the resistance's responsibility to preserve the canine shields the IDF hides behind.

[–] KoboldKomrade@hexbear.net 37 points 3 months ago (1 children)

One of the Ledditors called it "innocent". I love dogs. Most dogs are innocent. Police/Military dogs are abused to the point where they are incredibly violent.

[–] SoyViking@hexbear.net 26 points 3 months ago

There are probably IOF stormtroopers out there who are "innocent" and haven't done any violence yet. That doesn't make them any less legitimate targets for the resistance.

Being innocent or not has nothing to do with war. It is not a judicial process. You neutralise enemy combattants without investigating their individual motivations and actions first.

Reminds me of my old friend's ethologist spouse who told me I had to give Hitler some credit for loving dogs.

[–] Diuretic_Materialism@hexbear.net 39 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yah know there's dog lovers out there who DONT commit genocide, quite a few actually

[–] Sebrof@hexbear.net 28 points 3 months ago (1 children)

But there are some who committed genocide who also loved dogs. Really makes you think

Basically everyone likes dogs. That isn't a credit

Lol right. They also tried to convince me that Japan was communist because of their collective culture. Odd person

[–] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 19 points 3 months ago (1 children)

You do not, in fact, have to hand it to fascists for getting along with domesticated animals.

[–] Sebrof@hexbear.net 15 points 3 months ago

Yeah I was unpleasantly surprised by their comments. When you value human life that little to the point that you give Hitler a pass because he shares your love of dogs... Shit fascists say

How Hamas is supposed to react when an animal bred and trained to kill them tries to kill them

[–] SoyViking@hexbear.net 44 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I've been saying this before but if the resistance wants the western public to turn against the zionist occupiers, there's a limit to hire much showing them images of dead and mutilated brown children is going to do, the average westerner is a low-effort nazi at heart who doesn't really care that much what happens to non-Aryans.

No, if the people running the English-language communication efforts of the resistance really want westerners to care they should show them how the zionist occupiers are mean to cats and dogs. Westerners care a lot about fluffy pets.

[–] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 37 points 3 months ago

I hate that I agree and think this would work

[–] AtomPunk@hexbear.net 36 points 3 months ago

r/worldnews is astroturfed to hell and back, this doesn’t surprise me. Every user is a bloodthirsty Zionist. (I was actually banned, and I commented exactly once). r/news has a better stance on the conflict at the very least, as far as libs go.

Waiting for the international community to condemn the IDF for using canine shields

[–] Evilphd666@hexbear.net 35 points 3 months ago

while this is certainly unpleasant, I'm not sure why this is considered world news vs the numerous other booby traps hamas sets up, including in childrens toys, baby strollers or rooms with child voice recordings speaking hebrew or arabic to lure soldiers in.

Hasbara Projection at it's finest.

Israeli drones 'playing sounds of babies crying before opening fire'

“It headed towards the tents broadcasting the same crying. We called my cousin in the tents and told him, ‘Don’t fall for it. It’s just a sound system.’

“Abu Anas al-Shahrour, [from this] area, they shot him in the head.”

As well as sounds of women and children, residents also said the drones played sounds of gunfire, explosions and the movement of military vehicles.

The organisation Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor also reported residents occasionally heard songs in Hebrew and Arabic, which they argue is a form of "psychological intimidation".

Pro-Israel mob played the sounds of crying children on speakers in front of the pro-Palestine encampment at UCLA.

Colonialists and fascists consider their animals lives to be more important than the lives of the non white people they colonise and oppress. Been happening since the dawn of colonialism. Hitler was infamously into animal welfare. There's a ton of racism involved.

At the risk of showing my “heckin’ pupper” side myself. There is a special place in hell for people who breed any animal to reduce their entire psyche to war.
