That's literally what they're saying out loud now:

On being asked by Ahmad Tibi, one of the Arab MPs within the Israeli Knesset last week if it was legitimate “to insert a stick into a person’s rectum”, Hanoch Milwidsky, a member of Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu’s ruling Likud party, responded: “If he is a Nukhba [Hamas militant], everything is legitimate to do! Everything!”

- Well those definitely sound like the words of a person who would decey a warcrime or six /s

  I think they would argue Hamas militants are unlawful combatants (they don't follow laws of war) and the Geneva convection doesn't apply.
  
  I find it funny how if you are fighting someone that doesn't follow the laws of war you can not follow them too but you are not in violation, they are!

Whoever kills an innocent is a piece of shit.

It's basic fascist logic. Which as the GOP in the US has shown us, you don't need to be fascist to use. "Our chosen enemy is both cowardly/weak and an existential threat at the same time."

- Republicans are fascists lmfao

  The GOP are the Republicans.

  Eh, they aren't quite there yet. There are definitely fascists in the party but I think the party as a whole is going to go more authoritarian theocracy. The difference being, if you play their religious game you might just avoid a concentration camp. Whereas in Fascism you are your label and that's it. A few other big differences but mostly the same for the people on the ground.

- And how if you listen to russia, Ukraine is both a marionette of the West and a secret mastermind orchestrating the worldwide conspiracy

  Which hilariously is also antisemitic while also accusing them of being Nazis.

Reminds me of 9/11 and the Iraqi war.

3,000 souls for 250,000 souls

- The Iraqi war wasn't related to 9/11 at all. It was about oil and finishing what daddy started.

  Yeah, but we sure kept Saddam from nuking anyone with his many, many WMDs.

the ends justify the means but what justifies the ends?

If I'm following OPs logic, you can bomb a country for years, invade, take their people hostage, get attacked back, not surrender, don't negotiate and prioritize PR above the lives of your people.

When the war is over what will they have gained?

- are you talking about Israel or Hamas? because damn, it's hard to differentiate between the two terrorist organizations.

  Israel was hamas all along :o

- Not sure if you're intentionally or accidentally describing israel.

The day has barely started and that's already three posts on the topic today.

Edit: anyone who wants to defend this troll, please see this thread. They are not coming to Lemmy in good faith: https://lemmy.world/post/18634532

- Well, it is the next holocaust, so it makes sense that people are discussing it at length. It'll probably be one of the biggest topics future history lessons of this era will cover, which is saying something, considering how fucked up this era is.

  Just look at the user's post history if you actually want to understand what I'm saying

- You can scroll past these posts, or even block them I’ll bet. Stop complaining that the news of an ongoing genocide is insignificantly inconvenient for you and implying that it’s something everyone else should care about, it’s weird and embarrassing.

  I guess you're arguing in bad faith too. Sure you wanna miss an opportunity to claim that I love genocide?

  Good. Palestine deserves attention.

  Especially by those trying to influence the election in America, right?
  
  I don't need anyone else to lecture me about how I supposedly shouldn't ever challenge this motherfucker. You all either actively ignore what they are doing or you agree with their accelerationism.

- The day has barely started and that's already three comments harassing users on a post about israel committing Genocide.
  
  A lot of projection going on about bad faith arguments as usual.

  If I'm right about Lemmy at all, it's only a matter of time before you get banned from instances. But maybe I'm wrong. Maybe this is just hipster-Reddit and barely anyone cares that what you're doing here is not what you pretend to be doing here.

  Anyone bothering them about problems that are still happening are just there to ruin the mood
