Can someone please substantiate if this picture is real or is it propaganda?

I have seen some disturbing images recently, but this one is beyond shocking to me. Surely this sort of thing is not happening in 2023?

Do not click if you are sensitive.

Apparently the writing is a happy birthday wish to a child.

I cannot obviously read it to know if that's what is truly written.

DysonSphere you did jump to conclusions... never heard of the Enola Gay?

What conclusions? That bombing people is nasty, and using the already horrific killing as a personal greeting /celebration seems unfathomably depraved coming from a member of a powerful, modern State?

Writing that message - when everyone already knows thousands of civilians are being killed by Israeli bombs - is the slick equivalent of the Palestinian crowd’s primitive and monstrous cheering and spitting at the naked girl in the back of the pick-up on Oct 7.

Scrolling, I know it’s been said but it really isn’t the same is it? I don’t think it’s right but it’s no where near the treatment of Shani Louk. That was her name.

Nope

It was the aircraft that dropped Little Boy on Hiroshima.
The other bomb, Fat Man, dropped on Nagasaki, had a message written on it by Rear Admiral W.R. Purnell of the US Navy.
The message said: A Second Kiss For Hirohito…

Some humans are disgusting. They do disgusting things.

@DysonSphere

"An Israeli MMA fighter Chaim Gozali has written the names of Khabib Nurmagomedov, Islam Makhachev, Khamzat Chimaev, and Belal Muhammad on artillery shells to be fired at Gaza killing thousands of Children

"UFC fighters who support terrorists, this is for you from Israel""

Children alive but with skin melted. Remember? People of all ages with limbs blown off. Remember? Entire families wiped out. Remember? 13,000 killed, and that’s without those yet to be found. Remember? 3000 more killed in the last six weeks in Gaza. Remember? People slowly suffocating under rubble. Orphans, remember

That was what this bomb message was celebrating.

LittleMsTellTheTruth · 24/11/2023 13:14

They’ve done this before.
Before the mass genocide happening now, I mean.
If you google, you find kids signing them, teaching to hate at young age and all that.
When Matthey Perry died, Israelis wrote ’this is for Chandler Bing’.

How people excuse or support this is beyond me, but as you can see just from this thread alone, many think this is just fine 😳😡😢
How they sleep at night is beyond me, I just hope the worst commentors, who also make multiple and each time crazier comments are just Israelist bots.
I need to tell myself that, because thinking these ice cold people are actually living people among is is too scary.

Who on this thread are supporting it? Some people are pointing out that this is neither a new thing not exclusive to Israel.

stormy4319trevor · 24/11/2023 13:33

I don't know, but it seems like a way to personalise the bomb for whoever writes the message. Curious practice, but war and violence are a sickness in my view anyway.

pickledandpuzzled · 24/11/2023 13:34

It’s a man thing, I think. Like naming cars. A kind of territorial expansion. Pissing on boundaries.

And naming the people you want to hit- that’s a very old concept. Like, kissing an arrow for luck or putting someone’s name on a voodoo doll.

Not nice, but very human.

Stomacharmeleon · 24/11/2023 14:37

@ScrollingLeaves I disagree. Your reaching at the very least. You have no idea if or what it's 'celebrating' anything other than a birthday.

No naming of people no attacking of people. A birthday wish.

Personalising weapons is as old as the hills.

Reallifelurker · 24/11/2023 14:47

I’ve heard it all now.

What did you get your kid for their birthday?

oh I wrote their name on an actual bomb that we then lobbed at actual people.

Stomacharmeleon · 24/11/2023 14:52

It wasn't a child though. He marked his name and possibly his wife's. People do that all that time do some research.... i didn't say I agreed with it but it's happened a lot in conflict.

Stomacharmeleon · 24/11/2023 14:53

As said before....

Cleverestclog · 24/11/2023 15:09

It's been happening since bombs were invented and it's happening in 2023.
Type "messages on bombs" into Google and press "Images".

Reallifelurker · 24/11/2023 15:15

Oh well that’s alright then 😂

Chaitales · 24/11/2023 15:16

It's disgusting. Just because things have been done before doesn't mean its okay. Slavery, though widely accepted at the time, was never okay. Animal zoos weren't. Eugenics and forced sterilisation wasn't. Congo genocide wasn't. These things were accepted, celebrated at the time, doesnt mean their okay and we just shrug and accept if it happens now. Oct 7th wasn't okay. Rape and celebrating rape is never okay. Babies killed is it okay. Ongoing occupation of Palestine, apartheid and the mass killings and horrific deaths in the past 40 days and land grab over the past years isn't. Children singing death to Arabs and flatten Gaza and putting celebratory messages on missiles is not okay. No matter how you spin this, none of this is okay, it shouldn't be, and if you shrug your shoulders and say meh it happens, it is not okay.

children writing on bombs. The children were brought by their parents to see the bombs and they wrote their messages
Its sick

I hope you don't mean I was the one who confirmed it was real! I have no idea. I haven't seen it before. I just translated the text for you. I have no idea if the picture is real or not, but if it is I stand by my verdict of it being gross.

I agree with you. It is gross and sickening
And I don't see why it should be defended

The civilian death toll has been alarming. Its very likely whether targeted or not that those rockets have a high chance of hurting innocent civilians

It’s a man thing, I think. Like naming cars. A kind of territorial expansion. Pissing on boundaries.

And naming the people you want to hit- that’s a very old concept. Like, kissing an arrow for luck or putting someone’s name on a voodoo doll.

Not nice, but very human.

Kids do it too.

I disagree it's not very human at all

I also can't see the comparison with naming cars

Who knows. Fairly sure people wrote a lot of nasty things to and about Germans in the 2nd world war. Even in the 70s people were weird to my mother for marrying one. Hate makes war makes hate.

stormy4319trevor · 24/11/2023 15:23

It's strange to normalise bombs to kids, certainly. I can't really get my head around that at all. None of it is OK.

Just because things are "human" doesn't mean they are right. Joseph's brothers threw him into a well out of jealousy, so do we just meh it if we see someone killing another cus of a small rivalry?

SM is so eye opening in seeing depths people will go to to defend war and genocide. I don't know if that's a good thing. You hope the world you live in, not the politicians and power hungry people in power but ordinary civilians around you are kind and good and all want the same thing. SM has shown that you could be being hanged from a tree in your neighbourhood and people will pass and say, she deserved it, ah its human behaviour, this was always done in past, she had it coming.
