This demonic non-entity disguised as a country needs to be razed to the ground. These criminals need to be seen a shameful stain on this world's history, and every single person who has taken any part in assisting this criminal project needs to face the harshest of consequences. How much longer are we going to let this assembly of sociopaths that pretends to be a nation get away with whatever their rotten souls leads them to do?

This is an act of WAR. It is also a WAR CRIME. They have kidnapped civilians in international waters. They did so in full view of the entire world, confident in their impunity. If the countries to which these twelve activists belong do not immediately cease ANY collaboration with Israel in ANY way shape or form, then what the fuck is it that we're even doing? This is an insult to the entire world, and if it's unanswered, the cowardice of every single one of these leaders will be made even more obvious.

Once again, I have no words to express how much I am in awe of the spirit and bravery of these twelve activists. May their actions serve as an example, and I can only wish that more celebrities and notable people used their positions in society to break this siege, to break this blockade and force this demonic genocide to end.

All of this goes double for France. They kidnapped a French politician, a member of the European Parliament, from international waters. It’s one of the most “declare war” worthy things I’ve ever heard

I truly don't understand why almost every country in the world seems to love Israel so much. Israel can abuse and insult them all they want and at best they'll just send Israel a strongly worded letter, only to beg for more afterwards.

[–] HakFoo@lemmy.sdf.org 26 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Israel has done a very effective job of selling "we are the Jewish community" so governments tended to handle them with kid gloves for fear they would be seen as trying to replay tbe Holocaust.

Unfortunately, it went the other way. Decades of blank cheque support let them act with impunity and eventually deliver their own genocide.

I worry this tarnishes the image of Jews elsewhere, who are going to get blowback resentment for the livestreamed horrors. Chuds don't have the nuance to figure out that their neighbour who has never set foot in Israel but places a menorah by the window probably didn't personally slaughter infants, and there are surely peiole who will profit from magnifying that unawareness.

[–] Grapho@lemmy.ml 15 points 1 day ago

I can already see blatant antisemitism becoming not just tolerated but celebrated in social media. It's not at all surprising, either, which is why a lot of orthodox Jew organizations are very anti-Zionist.

It's probably the desired outcome by the zionist state as well, that's their preferred rhetorical weapon.

Israel is planning to force the crew to watch "October 7" propaganda footage. The crew is mandated to watch the footage by "Israel Minister of Defense Israel Katz".

Oh hello, is this yet another one of those things the west has accused "bad countries" like the DPRK of doing?

[–] NPa@hexbear.net 29 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm still convinced they have some fake ass MKultra footage designed to make people hella traumatized, like they did with a bunch of journalists at the start of the war. Like real gruesome deep faked video of kids getting murdered or something.

[–] CarbonConscious@hexbear.net 5 points 1 day ago

Shit, they probably have the footage for real, they only just need to scrub off the IOF logos on the killers.

[–] HoiPolloi@hexbear.net 16 points 1 day ago

I think they've all been traumatised by the footage of what Israel has done to Gaza.

It won't happen but if any of these countries weren't chickenshit they'd declare war over this. I mean, they should have like...a long time ago but you can't let a foreign military kidnap your citizens in international waters

[–] ClimateStalin@hexbear.net 76 points 1 day ago (5 children)

Especially France. They kidnapped a French politician from international waters. If there’s anything that should make you declare war it’s that!

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 33 points 1 day ago

Didn't even think of that but absolutely!

They would absolutely do it if it had been china, Cuba, North Korea, or Iran

[–] Blakey@hexbear.net 26 points 1 day ago

China and North Korea are nuclear armed. They wouldn't for china and might not for NK, but they would make a hell of a lot more noise than I expect them to here.

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 28 points 1 day ago

Maybe not China. They'd want to tho

I will never willingly do business with a zionist. I will not hire a zionist. I will not befriend a zionist.

I hate them. They can all rot in hell, if there is a hell.

Wow wonder why people hate israel, must be because they're antisemitic.

[–] FishLake@lemmygrad.ml 62 points 1 day ago (5 children)

This is exactly the line I used with my liberal ex-friend. His response, “You’re misinformed and lack perspective of how this affects people on both sides.”

[–] Frogmanfromlake@hexbear.net 45 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

“Both sides” and the fetish for peaceful activism are a political plague.

Israel has seized the ship. Israel mocks the Freedom Flotilla and claims the crew will be sent to their home countries. Israel denies that Gaza is being starved.

[–] T34_69@hexbear.net 44 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

Selfie yacht?? These pieces of shit have to redacted. I'm aghast. Things are so bad, holy shit.

Also, 11 million meals for how many people in Gaza? 1.9 million? So you fed less than three square meals for two days and that's supposed to last how many weeks is it now? Just the fucking audacity. I hate these Zionist freaks so much.

They also set the help centers as bait and are murdering people that comes to them, furthermore making people fear the help in general because they will never know if it's real or bait. One of the most evil things imaginable.

I was fucking livid when I saw that. The fucking gall of calling it a “selfie yacht” while also saying the GHF is helping the Palestinians in Gaza

I can’t even describe how angry this made me after all the reports that the GHF is baiting people to be murdered for over a week now

[–] Pentacat@hexbear.net 23 points 1 day ago

Selfie yachts are infinitely better than selfie holocausts. JMO.

Israel shows the crew being held hostage in Israeli captivity.

Israel continuing to prove that they are one of the most evil nations on the planet

[–] Monk3brain3@hexbear.net 22 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Easily the most evil. America does more evil but Israel is more concentrated evil. Fuck Israel

I really can't describe israel and it's people outside of being demonic freaks. Like literally ever accusation the chuds have ever hurled at the left for being "satanic" and killing and eating babies...israel already does and openly and proudly too! Like they murder children and they're like yup that's us!

[–] mamotromico@lemmy.ml 55 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

I’ll be very very honest

I’m surprised they didn’t just sink the boat and then kidnapped the survivors. I was fully expecting that.

[–] smokeppb@hexbear.net 28 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I was also expecting this, wasn't sure what any other outcome could have reasonably been when dealing with the IOF.

It's like I have witnessed Zionism's renaissance
You and your mates in the States really get along
They veto anything that doesn't let you get what you want
Even if it's sending planes to bomb Lebanon

Can't imagine sweden will have the spine to do anything even though the crewmates were taken hostage on what i imagine is a vessal attributed to them in international waters. The fact that israel takes these actions is because they know western countries will give them impunity.

[–] edge@hexbear.net 34 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Looks like it’s UK flagged. Still, one of its citizens was kidnapped in an international act of piracy.

France had one of its politicians kidnapped, I doubt it’s going to to do anything either.
