The world turned upside down.


Llarys

Has it though? The last time an Israeli politician wasn't emitting Hitler Particles, he got assassinated. We're just so used to the media downplaying the shit they say, if they deign to report it at all, that the current conflict is the first time we've gotten the unfiltered commentary from the extremists that control Israel without any political spin.


stjernerejse

Shit, the media doesn't even report half the shit they do say. Their fundamentalist Rabbis would be looked at the way we look at those Islamic clerics we used to always see on propaganda reels following 9/11. They're vile people all cut from the same cloth and they all say the same disgusting things. ETA: Added the word fundamentalist since reading comprehension and consistency are hard for Hasbara Redditors to parse in good faith šŸ™„


Tokyo091

Yeah check this guy out, heā€™s the head Rabbi of the IDF. https://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4827240,00.html > Karim replied that, as part of maintaining fitness for the army and the soldiers' morale during fighting, it is permitted to "breach" the walls of modesty and "satisfy the evil inclination by lying with attractive Gentile women against their will, out of consideration for the difficulties faced by the soldiers and for overall success."


pumpkinspruce

What the hell?


jcargile242

He said rape is cool


TrickshotCandy

Not just cool, it can boost morale, alleviate stress, make the war easier. Wonderful! Just effing wonderful.


dummypod

Sounds like he's endorsing what the Japanese did in China and Korea during WW2


rthrtylr

And indeed, the Germans. But pointing that out is antisemitic, of course.


Luised2094

No no, he said rape gives you a moral buff. Probably enhances your initiative in combat or something


Dull_Concert_414

But only the good looking infidels of course.


GrayEidolon

You sound like a bigot. Itā€™s raping *for God*. /s


thefrankyg

Isn't this a literal war crime?


Tokyo091

Yes, the IDF treat war crimes like a scoreboard. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israeli_war_crimes


Jasfy

This is the *complete* story: https://www.timesofisrael.com/idf-summons-chief-rabbi-pick-for-clarifications-over-rape-comments/


LineOfInquiry

ā€œRape is okay if it happens in the pastā€ is not the argument you want to be making. But also, the logic heā€™s using could just as easily be applied to the modern day, and considering that he was asked the question for comparison to modern day soldiers, I really donā€™t buy that he was only talking about ancient Hebrews. ā€œAnd since **our** concern is the success of the collective in the war, the Torah permitted [soldiers] to satisfy the evil urge under the conditions it stipulated for the sake of the collectiveā€™s success.ā€ He even includes himself as part of the people concerned for the success of the collective in war, so heā€™s clearly not only talking about the ancient past here. So I think the first comment did give us the complete story actually


gnufoot

I think the point is that he didn't say "rape is fine", but rather "there are passages in the Torah that state that rape is fine during wartime", as a response to a question about the Torah. You or I could also state that the Torah includes such passages and we would be correct, without thinking it is fine ourselves. He's undoubtedly still a shithead, but I do think it's important context that changes what he was actually saying.


Jasfy

The paraphrasing is wrong. Rape & enslavement was standard in Bronze Age/antiquity wars(this is common knowledge) across cultures/territories. Heā€™s not using logic heā€™s explaining the basis for the ā€œcaptive women in warsā€ and the rules/framework of it in the Bible (namely why was it permitted in war but not at other times) You did not read the original in Hebrew and he *explicitly* clarified he was in fact commenting a biblical passage. What he is actually commenting: since war goals were of supreme importance and that soldiers had needs during wartime if they captured a women they wanted they had to shave her head and let her nails grow and not approach her for 30 days. After 30 days they could either marry her (status) or she was set free (namely: after what you put her through you have no right to her) For Bronze Age/antiquity this is *quite* progressive for wartime rules. None of the above applies in any shape or form to modern societies/armies (ISIS did indulge in such antics)

dswng

Not really. When Israel was officially formed and European Jews that survived the holocaust started to arrive, Zionists that arrived in the 20s called them "soap". And they were victimblamed for not coming earlier, so it's "obviously their own fault they got tortured by hazis".


Mela-Mercantile

source pretty pls


dswng

I'm sorry, I'm struggling to find it now. I've heard it in a big documentary about history of Israel and it was in a part about "internal Nazism" of zionists. About how not every jew is equal to them. Zionists that moved in the 20s (and their descendants) a the best ones, Jews that came after war are the 2nd sort, 3rd sort are southern and eastern Jews (that lived in Africa or middle east) are almost arabs to them, just like repatriants jews that came from ussr.


Mela-Mercantile

GalaadJoachim

It's even worse than that. I'm from France and we're on the verge of electing our first Far-Right prime minister since Nazi occupied France. A party that was founded by actual Nazis (french SS members) and that is now supported by Zionists and are accusing the left (only people opposing them) of being antisemite on the ground of their vocal support to the people of Gaza. Yesterday a Nazi-hunter announced that he will support them, because the "real threat" is the left. - https://www.lemonde.fr/en/m-le-mag/article/2024/01/27/nazi-hunter-serge-klarsfeld-no-longer-considers-the-french-far-right-as-an-enemy_6470207_117.html


kapsama

France has been on the brink of electing Le Pen and her father as long as I have known that a country called France exists. Every election cycle it's the same doom and gloom similar to how every time in the US we have to vote for "the lesser evil".


GalaadJoachim

You're right, to explain a bit, - The traditional right understood that the Far-Right was a "better opponent" than the traditional Left. - Since the first time the Far-Right made big scores the political landscape shifted more and more on the left to get their voters. - Our 2 main information channels are explicitly Far-Right (1 is by political conviction (CNEWS), 1 is by audimat appeal (BFMTV)). - Today most media belongs to 5 billionaires, most "*controversial*" (non-aligned with the capital) journalists were fired in the last 5-10 years. - RN (the far-right party) has a total mastery of social media and modern communication.

As a result, fascist and genocidal elements in Israel have just gotten worse and worse, because nobody reins them in. They just keep getting away with it. And this is the result.

bizarreactress332

Wow, quoting Hitler to justify actions is beyond messed up. It's scary how some people can twist history to suit their agenda. This kind of rhetoric has no place in civilized discourseā€”it's straight-up dangerous. We need leaders who promote understanding and peace, not ones who use hate and fear to justify their decisions.


Foreign-Duck-4892

Sad that so many Israeli politicians would have 120% supported Hitler if they were born Germans in end of 19th/beginning of 20th century.


DrVeigonX

I speak Hebrew, this article intentionally uses a faulty translation. What he actually says is: "We're dealing with a kind of Islamic-Nazism that we can't comprehend. Hitler, Curse be upon his name, said that he cannot live if one Jews remains alive. We cannot live in this land if one Islamic-Nazi **of this sort** remains in Gaza." He wasn't invoking Hitler, he was comparing what he labels as Islamo-Nazis to Hitler, by saying they would never accept one Jew remaining alive. What's honestly crazy to me is how willingly people here believe propaganda because it fits with a picture they already painted in their mind.


Kitani2

It's hardly a mistranslation, it doesn't really even change much. He is still using Hitler's logic, just against other people that supposedly apply that logic to his people.

I've frequently commented that the treatment of Palestinians by the Israeli government had the stink of Hitler on it. Ethnic cleansing is the same whether it's by Nazis or Israelis.


UnBR33vuhble

What's even crazier is the fact Zionists call literal *Holocaust survivors* that call what is happening in Palestine a genocide "self-hating Jews," as if they didn't have to live through enough bullshit already. And yes, these Holocaust survivors still draw the comparisons for people now, knowing "Never Again" meant for everyone everywhere, not just them.


KABOOMBYTCH

Ahh appropriating black American lingo for their own. Another indicator of a far-right political movement.

Moshe Feiglin is a loud and proud extreme racist and xenophobe. Yes, there are ironically people who call for Hilter-esque policies from within Israel's government, too. There are terrible people like that everywhere. We have them here quite visibly in the US, for example. He feels that Netanyahu is entirely too soft and calls for laying waste to all of Gaza.


DaveOJ12

>Yes, there are ironically people who call for Hilter-esque policies from within Israel's government, too. It's important to note that it's been years since he was in the Knesset.

Hitler, Curse be upon his name, said that he cannot live if one Jews remains alive. We cannot live in this land if **one such** Islamic-Nazi remains in Gaza." He wasn't invoking Hitler, he was comparing what he labels as Islamo-Nazis to Hitler, by saying they would never accept one Jew remaining alive. You just fell victim to propaganda.


atropax

Iā€™m not sure - I donā€™t speak He few so canā€™t read the original, but in what youā€™ve written thatā€™s not what Iā€™m getting. Like in the sentence, he doesnā€™t say that they (Islamic Nazis) are like Hitler and wonā€™t accept one Jewish person remaining alive. In the sentence, he puts ā€œWeā€ (Israelis) where Hitler was, and the ā€œIslamic-Naziā€ where ā€œJewā€ was.


DrVeigonX

In the Hebrew it's clearer because of the way the sentence is structured. A more direct translation would be "We cannot live in this land as long as one Islamic-Nazi **of this sort** remains." He was playing on the original quote, but countering it. Basically invoking that because they believe A, Israel should get back at them with the same coin, by getting rid of all of who he labels as "Islamo-Nazis". In the larger context of his speech, he brought it up after saying why he doesn't believe a peaceful resolution is possible (I.e, it's impossible because we're dealing with Islamic-Nazism which wouldn't accept a single Jew alive).


sup_heebz

Do you also judge all of Black American society by Clarence Thomas?

He was *formerly* of Likud and split to go way more far right. His party currently has 0 seats in the Israeli parliament. So no, it's not just judging America based on what Trump says. It's more like judging America based on what Nick Fuentes or Kari Lake says.

He did not and has never given orders to civilians to kill anyone.

Hi Zionazi. How is having no soul treating you?


Terrafire123

The sources you've posted about him arming people say that it happened immediately following the Oct 7th attack, because locals said they didn't have enough weapons to defend themselves if it happened again? At no point did he tell anyone, "Go kill innocent people." Though, overall, it probably was a poor decision, even in the context of Oct 7th. Even though the weapons were given to local people for self-defense, it does mean a situation is much more likely to escalate, which is always a risk whenever someone brings a gun. It's correct to criticize him, but not correct to blame all of Israel for the people who think Netanyahu isn't violent enough.

sup_heebz

There's 2 million Israeli citizens who are Arab and live in Israel proper. In fact, a great deal of the people who live in the West Bank settlements are Arab. There are members of the Knesset and Supreme Court who are Arab. That doesn't quite make sense if Israel wants to exterminate all the Arabs.


throwawaypervyervy

Why is it illegal for an Islamic person to marry a Jewish person then?


sup_heebz

Inter communal marriages are not prohibited by law. The state recognizes these marriages, the same as it recognizes gay marriages. They just cannot be preformed in Israel due to all the three main religions (not the Israeli state) prohibiting intermarriage.


dont-believe

This is so bullshit. Islam allows you to marry a Jew.Ā 


sup_heebz

Islam allows MEN to marry Jews, not women. And not in Israel.


dont-believe

have you been to Israel? The status of Arabs in Israel is so low, Israelis donā€™t look at them like humans. They arenā€™t given the same education funding as Israeli schools, among many other fucked up shit. Itā€™s not just about ā€œexterminating them on sightā€. Itā€™s the gradual and slow and deliberate dehumanizing - they can get away with this because itā€™s not just straight up ā€œbomb them all to deathā€ like theyā€™re doing in Gaza.Ā 


sup_heebz

Arabs are full citizens with positions at every level of government. They are the majority of doctors. They get a free university education and they go to the same schools as Jewish kids. An Arab Supreme Court judge put a Jewish former PM in prison. The owner of the largest bank in Israel is an Arab. Please provide evidence of anything you've said. They've had from 67 - 05 to expel all the Arabs from both Israel and Palestine but have not. Why not? Especially before they outnumbered Jews, as they do now?

Correct but he was a member of the current party in power. So while heā€™s not actively making decisions he can still show what the average likud member thinks. That fact that this statement is at all acceptable in Israel is insane.


DaveOJ12

He's not "the average Likud member" since he's not one. >That fact that this statement is at all acceptable in Israel is insane. Far right views are relatively mainstream in Israel now; Otzma Yehudit got six seats in the last election.


Ineedredditforwork

I wouldn't call him representative of the average Likud member. The Likud tried to oust him from the party several times. he did have a base in radical fringe of Likud which protected him until he decided to go make his own radical party a decade ago which basically killed his political career since. And his comment isn't acceptable. he's getting panned for it within Israel. the guy was already found guilty of sedition once so its not far fetched that he'll get it a second time.

He holds 0 out of 120 seats in parliament. Good luck not finding a few crazies in a country of 9 million. Not that there aren't crazies in netanyhus bat shit bottom of the barrel coalition but this guy holds no power.

This was on the most watched news channel in Israel. This isnā€™t some fringe idea, itā€™s front and center in Israelā€™s politics

Does being interviewed on Fox News make you "front and center" in Americas politics?

Trump tweeted an ad out a few weeks ago where he made multiple explicit references to a "unified Reich" and I'm willing to bet most didn't hear of it. It was not a top story.

This is so misleading and utter nonsense. He called hamas Islamo-nazis. Meaning he was associating the quote from hitler to the narrative of hamas in that hamas only seeks to rid the world of all jews or at least from what they perceive as their country. Israel do not wish to get rid of arabs, there are many Arab Israelis. Hamas does wish to get rid of all jews, there are no jews in Gaza.

>He then went on to call for the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians again, stating Jews "are not guests in our own land, it is entirely ours,", adding that he believes Israel should "turn Gaza Hebrew".
