The fact this not on the front page of every newspaper in the world shows that
- Racism is stronger than war crime
- Israel can't be portrayed as guilty in any major crimes
- They are not allowed to post such stories
- All of the above

After all the genocide that has been done, the images and videos and maps, there's something about this video I can't get out of my head. A perfect summary of Israel's policies toward the Palestinian people and so utterly unacceptable. State sanctioned GENOCIDE and the world is either in on it, or doing piss-all about it.

    I almost broke my phone watching the video the first time.

    It's like Hollywood movies we were fed to remind us how horrible Nazi Germany was, but it's a real time video from our time. Happening right now while the entire world is witnessing it, over & over again

    Remember back in 2008, there was a video of a Gaza man hit by a sniper when he went helping an injured civilian, he was down, trying to get to safety, but was shot twice on camera.
    No one cared then, just like now

    It's absolutely demoralizing. For anyone who ever asked themselves how they would react to Nazi Germany, the way you're reacting to Israel right now is your answer.

    Stepping up my monthly donations to https://www.pcrf.net/ and https://www.anera.org/ at this moment.

    Rest in peace to these men who peacefully surrendered and were straight up murdered.

    (Tried to edit in case anyone wants to donate)

    I was very surprised to see this on the front page of the NYTimes website. Maybe something will finally change... This is straight up state sponsored murder. Unfortunately, not a unique story.

    The day after Ben Gvir posted a note defending the action of the IoF soldiers murdering 2 innocent civilians in cold blood, the Israeli media and military changing the story and claiming that those who murdered the Palestinians are not IoF, but the border police.

    PS. "Undercover" claim is really hilarious, those are uniformed IDF soldiers, not the police.

    Doron Kadosh: Contrary to Ben Gvir's statements - there were no IDF soldiers at the event at all. The fighters in the Jenin incident are fighters from the Border Police undercover unit in Judea and Samaria. https://t.me/newsil2022

    There's no Hamas in the West Bank.

    Interesting, that makes me more angry and disgusted about the coverage in Sweden.

    I'm actually surprised. Wouldn't have expected that of Sweden. Interesting to learn.

    Sweden has changed. It is not at all the country I used to know. It is unbearable to visit the evening newspapers, they are like printed version of Jerry Springer and the "liberal" DN that I used to subscribe to has turned into a copy of Jerusalem Post.

    I miss the old Sweden, that sweden was killed on ebruary 28, 1986 when they killed Olof Palme

    Or, hear me out, some countries are not interested in that because they are dealing with their own bullshit.

    Like for fucking example Ukraine.

    @ThirdConsul

    I am so disgusted by the Swedish media.

    The "liberal" Dagens Nyheter (Daily new) has nothing about the murders.
    https://www.dn.se/om/krisen-i-mellanostern/

    But they have a story about "Hamas planning to attack the civilians in Gaza: US official says".
    "Israel returning to ceasfire - blocks the aid".
    "Hamas leader before October 7: Attack the kibbutz".

    And more garbage pro-Israeli crap.

    @ThirdConsul

    The only Major Swedish newspaper that covers the story is the conservative "Svenska Dagbladet svd.se".

    The other major ones, aftonbladet.se, expressen.se and GB.se have absolutely nothing on their front page OR their news or international news section.

    It is really disgusting.

    Swedish paper "Svenska Dagbladet" is the only paper that covered the murder of 2 civilians on their front page with an image and the text "Shot to death - even thought they hand their hands up in the air".
