The Israeli military says the man was a suspect in a raid in the West Bank, but its forces violated protocol.

This thread is a masterclass in Hasbara. It's quite something to witness in real time.

A poster claiming shani louk wasn't raped and murdered was indeed odd.

Same poster claiming things abouts dogs, vile and incorrect.

Those lies need correction.

@US2gether I think you’ll find that the US has apparently proposed a ceasefire plan, but Israel seems to have its own plans. Let’s not forget that there are many conscientious objectors within Israel who are opposed to Israel’s violent actions and simply want peace. October 7th didn’t just happen in a vacuum so let’s not ignore the domino effect that lead to it happening in the first place.

The proposed ceasefire plan with hamas changes. As I mentioned.

You then go off on a tangent. The current conflict stemed from Oct 7th. This level of conflict occurred because of what happened that day. The incursion, the deaths and the hostage taking.

Hamas has proposed ‘unworkable’ changes to ceasefire plan, Blinken says – as it happened

US secretary of state says some Hamas proposals go beyond what group previously accepted but warns time is short

You've made a number of strange claims.

2.1 million people haven't been murdered or starved. Too many innocent people have died though.

There is a current conflict which started after 7th October mass insurgency into Israel. Its horrible and the latest suggested ceasefire agreement by the US was rejected by Hamas, in what the US described as unworkable changes required. I'd rather believe the US than Hamas. On and on it goes. Innocent people in the middle.

At the start of this thread a poster found it hilarious when I mentioned that this is another example of a Palestinian being used as a human shield. As if the IDF have not, and continued for decades to do so.
If they are still on this thread you can read this:

From US state department Matthew Miller:
“This practice is absolutely unacceptable. Humans should never be used as human shields. The IDF should swiftly investigate what happened and hold people accountable,”

Also why else would Israel say they’d investigate if it was all done by book by I guess that’s also conveniently overlooked.

Exactly, the IDF command has said the soldiers would be investigated for misconduct as the video is pretty damming.

Why would you laugh about innocent children being detained unlawfully?

AhNowTed · 24/06/2024 21:11

@ForKookyPoet

"So where does the non law breaking come into your argument?"

Let me explain.

If a person is held without charge, never mind trial, they have broken no law.

Administrative detention is Israel's own term for holding people without charge indefinitely, and I'm surprised you don't know that.

His version of events isn’t new though. It matches up with what his family and other witnesses have reported as well as the video footage.

What doesn’t match up with the video footage is the story that IDF were swiftly transporting him to get medical help while they ignored and passed no fewer than three ambulances, and definitely did not take him to a hospital but left him in the road for others to assist.

How convenient. It’s almost as though it just happened and there were no witnesses left alive.

ETA: Just found out that there were witnesses so you weren’t being very truthful.

SummerFeverVenice · 24/06/2024 21:09

Livelovebehappy · 24/06/2024 20:54

But what you quoted was a statement from Mujahed Azmi, the Palestinian strapped to the jeep. Solely from him. No other witness statements to back up his new version of events. Only his words.

They want back the hostages who Hamas took, in an unprovoked attack. Thats all it takes to stop the war. Once the terrorists do that, they can all sit down and talk with a mediator. Not too difficult? Then we can all get back to living our lives.

Sorry? What about all the displaced Palestinian refugees who have lost their homes and no right of return? Who is the one who has the right to defend themselves when someone is bulldozing your home? What happened to Rachel Corrie wasn’t an accident. To what extent are Palestinians allowed to defend themselves to be protected from a genocide?

Why isn’t Israel doing more for the hostages? Why is it that IDF have “accidentally” killed their own hostages because they just couldn’t tell? How is it that the IDF knew about the World Central Kitchen and killed them anyway? It was pretty clear they were gunned down.

Or is it just that Hamas have to be moral but Israel and the IDF aren’t held to the same moral standards? Why is it that Orthodox Jews who are against Israel’s policies are being attacked? Why doesn’t Israel just simply stop building more settlements? Why are Jews who are against Zionist policies called self-hating Jews?

Reality is very complicated and Israel needs to do more to start the peace process and if that means to negotiate so that they can have their hostages return, that’s something they should be considering and doing everything they can to ensure there is a peace process. Instead even if there is an an arms embargo, you have the likes of Russia et al arming Israel, so what can Palestinians actually do?

Israel say different. They’re held for security breaches/offences. Held until a trial takes place, however long that might be whilst evidence is obtained. That’s what happens in the majority of the worlds prisons, even the UK. People are arrested, sometimes bailed, sometimes detained until trial.

No it isn't
The police can hold you for up to 24 hours before they have to charge you with a crime or release you. They can apply to hold you for up to 36 or 96 hours if you're suspected of a serious crime, such as murder. You can be held without charge for up to 14 days If you're arrested under the Terrorism Act.

Being arrested: your rights

The police have to follow strict rules if you're arrested, questioned or charged with a crime - you can get legal advice at a police station

That’s not what Israel says at all and what happens isn’t at all like “the majority of world’s prisons” because Palestinians are not under civil law, but martial law. It’s an entirely different system. There is no bail. There doesn’t have to be a trial. There is no jury or justice/judge.

In what law can you murder and Starve a population of 2.1 million drop bombs on a population of 2.1 million drop bombs on schools hospitals houses universities? Do you not think that would be illegal or do you just not have common sense?

There are indeed Palestinian hostages, men women AND children, being unlawfully held, the MAJORITY of those being held have never been convicted of any crime, when are israel going to start handing those back?

There are no Palestinian hostages. They’re prisoners, locked up for breaking the law. And I recall that many more Palestinians prisoners were released than there were Israeli hostages released since 7th October.
