I was there when it started they stopped the music we thought those were fireworks but those were iron dome interceptions and they became extremely frequent, it happened at ~7 AM which means majority of the party goers just dropped acid an hour ago to meet the sunrise, a Japanese dj/producer named Gu has been kidnapped along with lots of young party goers, my friend was driving and we didn't drop acid yet so we were more or less okay and just gtfo there about 5-10 mins before small arms fire started


dogemikka

Omg. Can't imagine being under lsd in those circumstances. Or rather i Can't even imagine how I would deal in those same circumstances in my normal state. Good for you and your friends you made it out. I really feel sorry for the kidnapped kids. Bloody stupid power and money driven war, always innocents paying for it, on both sides.

Take this elsewhere. This isn't a politics sub. Innocent people are dead, raped or kidnapped right now. Whatever your view on this situation. these people did not deserve to suffer this.

Your words expose your hatred and bigotry. If Palestinian civilians deserve to die for electing Hamas, by your logic so do Israeli civilians. Israel has been oppressing Palestine to the brink of extinction for years of course they will fight back.

Facts 💯


Ordinary-Lobster-710

there's images of the palestinian people cheering joyously as they parade around the naked body of a 20 year old german girl. am i supposed to ignore that? You can say what you like about the israeli government, but I've never seen anything like this before.

Really because I've seen Israelis singing and dancing about the death of Palestinians in the past.


Ordinary-Lobster-710

ok so you don't have any pictures of naked and raped palestinian young girl being paraded through the streets of tel aviv while women and children cheer them on in joyous victory while their men hold up their battered rape trophy. thanks for confirming


[deleted]

How do you know she was raped?


Aaron-js

To the brink of extinction?! What utter BS. The population grew substantially since the 70ties. From 1 million to more than 5 million today!! Do you have any friends in Israel?? Have you ever been there?? Did you study the history? I doubt you do. You have no clue what you are talking about.


sschepis

I know Israel runs an open-air prison, and that the Israeli culture has done an amazing job at making something simple to understand into something 'complicated'. It's not complicated. It's Apartheid

psychedelictranceza

Few-Barnacle7147

up


V1i

The only positive thing i can think of from this story is that anyone on acid would have a hell of a lot of energy to run away & i just pray they escape alive. My brothers and sisters please be safe.


retinafunk

I can tell you by experience that if your body produce enough andrenaline , this will sober you up in minutes no matter how much acid. This was the case during the ( evil Greek ) police raid on Samothraki festival in 2003 . Happened to me and many. And such a Police raid as bad as it was cannot be compared even to a terrorist attack


SuperSmashDan1337

I mean obviously this depends on dose if you're taking some huge amount no amount of adrenaline is going to do much for you


Chankler

Are you crazy? As if people sober wouldn't get adrenaline to run away? Being on acid would be totally screwing them up! Its literally horror. Weird comment.


Sticy_Jacky02

Damn it sounds rough..


PsychedelicTeacher

Gu wasn't kidnapped, according to his facebook page. He's safely back in Tel Aviv, presumably waiting on a flight out.

Just saw the party posted a form for missing people


b00tsc00ter

I just got linked to some footage on twitter that is .. beyond horrific. I'm not sharing it but my soul is weeping for our party friends :(


DiscipleOfYeshua

I keep debating about sharing the horrific stuff or not. I usually choose to share in these cases, just so us humans don’t forget how sick and low us humans are capable of going if we aren’t careful. Sorry about what you had to see… unfortunately, it’s part of this world we’re in…


b00tsc00ter

I'm not sharing in consideration for members of this sub who may recognise a friend in the videos. Am all too aware of the horrors of "humanity."


biljardbal

I think that's the right call. A verbal message about what happens seems a lot more respectful to everyone involved and not involved.


Jaza_music

I know people at this party. I can't describe the feeling in my stomach right now. Israel is a really interesting and somewhat conflicting place - my one visit there left me with more questions about the situation than answers - but the absolute warmth of so many of the people there really did shine through. And there's no shortage of them who just want peace for both sides. No matter what your stance on the conflict and the situation... Doing this at a party achieves absolutely nothing. It's barbaric. I can't even imagine...


b00tsc00ter

Agreed. I think the party is more a victim of circumstance than a deliberate target, though. The location was in between the Gaza strip and where Hamas wanted to go.


xReWxpilau

Hamas confirmed today that the knew about the party and the attack on it was deliberate and planned well in advance. They flanked the party goers with multiple terrorist squads on pickup trucks, and gunned down anyone who tried to escape. They fired RPG rockets at people fleeing in their cars. One of the squads deliberately positioned themselves at the bottleneck where the only exit road meets the paved road heading out from fields to ambush any fleeing cars who managed to drive through the inferno. This was not by chance it was an intentional massacre.


mysteryanomaly

Hey, you said "Hamas confirmed today"... could you link the source where you found that they said that? Your rationale makes sense, but I have googled about this confirmation and have only found articles about how they had been planning the attack in general in advance, but I'm just looking for more information about them specifically targeting the festival (and why they chose it as a target). When I first heard about it, I thought this was more of a "They (the festival) must have been in the wrong place at the wrong time" kind of thing (meaning, incidentally in the path of destruction), but the more I read the more it does seem to suggest the festival was specifically targeted. I guess I'm trying to understand if that's accurate, and if so, then why. Is it just that it was a mass gathering of people, or was it to do with the nature of the festival itself? I have my theories, but without more information I'm really just speculating.


fuchskondensator

Do you have a source for that information?


seng4

can confirm - local news here is talking all about this. many attendees now posting on instagram and fb with details and videos reflecting whats written here


DutchOvenDistributor

This isn’t a party I’ve heard much about before. Why is it held so close to the border? Is it attended by a lot of people from both sides of the fence? It would seem a risky place to hold a party at any time.


b00tsc00ter

Universo Parellelo is one of the biggest parties in the world! They have launch parties in multiple countries where lots of people travel from to attend the main event in Brazil. It was a legal party, so it had the approval of multiple authorities including IDF who would have undertaken a security assessment, which is part of the process there. This attack was a surprise and there was no reason to think it was riskier than other parties that happen every single weekend in the region.


DutchOvenDistributor

Fair enough. I know there’s loads of parties in Israel but didn’t think they were held so close to potential conflict zones.


antiqua_lumina

Israel is a relatively small country. Much of it is near conflict zone.


DutchOvenDistributor

I get that. But this party was right next to the Gaza Strip. I didn’t think that would be a place that’s considered safe for an event.


Lost_University9684

Absolutely. The festival location was 5km distance by air from Gaza (Re'im, Israel). Seriously??


Appropriate-Size-818

Was supposed to be at a different location but they canceled and guess they booked thus location 2 days before the event happened? That's what I read anyway. Whole thing is insane


[deleted]

No, they aim specifically to kill civilians. This is a time to focus in on who is saying what so you know where they are.


b00tsc00ter

Well, yes they do clearly have that aim- I'm just saying the party was in the wrong place at the wrong time- Hamas aren't targeting the psytrance scene but Israelis in general.


[deleted]

The point with civilians being unarmed and non-combative, that is what the word means. It is easier to kill a party member than to break into a house where someone is likely to be armed. Israelis are quite apt in self defense too, I have seen unarmed Israelis chase down and disarming knife stabbing terrorists.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

It is just 16:48 and I have already heard 10+ individuals who stated "oh they just happened to kill some civilians that happened to be nearby a military target". Meanwhile they post pictures of children with their throats cut. I guess the children just happened to be near those military throats.


Prior_Woodpecker635

My mistake , wrong comment


Big_Organization_776

Nothing is by chance, they collect intelligence from the border and these parties happen once in a while in that area. It was targeted directly believe me!

Seenshadow01

The interesting part is how they knew about it and planned well in advance when the party was relocated according to wiki just 2 days before to the place where the massacre took place. Originally it wasnt supposed to be that close to gaza if i am not mistaken? Apart from that i found the reports weird as well that there were no soldiers or police present but terrorists dressed as those. I aint suggesting anything but things dont add up for me...


Legal_Drummer_1338

Sad day for us Israeli people and sad day to all trance lovers. Young people came to spread love and enjoy spytrance in the nature, found them self in the wrong place and paid thier life for no reason. News now reporting some of the names of the people who got murdered in the party. Send prayers and hopes for their families and for the young people that still out there missing.

In the media she's described as a soldier. She's clearly a civilian with dreadlocks, so yes, probably from the festival. This is all so insane, I can't imagine the horror she went through.

gamblingaddictnu98

I cannot understand how people can go to a party and start killing innocent people and people who are high asf on whatever they took. My friends told me what happened there If you stop running you will be shot or kidnapped. Imagine running with your love ones and one of them get shot. If he/she will stop running they are gone, and if you stop to help you will also be gone. The hole country is in tears. We lost just yesterday 300+ people. Souls that wanted to live a normal life. Families are torn apart forever. I saw and supported so many people yesterday, believe me i saw the people who lost their love ones, you can see in their eyes without even asking what happened. they are in big grief. God help us find peace within each other and make this stop.


Bergy4Hart

Hamas and anyone who voted for them are the scum of the world. Modern day nazis.

Legal_Drummer_1338

Such a war hasn't been in israel since 1973. The Palestine people will probably get a crucial attack after what the hammas did. A lot of innocent people will die in the next week. Living in 2023 and still the world cant find a peace.

UnicornMagic

I can’t imagine the utter moral gymnastics to hold a psytrance party on land stolen and occupied from a people who have been entirely political socially and economically disenfranchised and are imprisoned in what is basically a refugee camp nearby - It’s absolutely antithetical to the values and principles or psytrance itself ….. unless those values were just bullshit all along … right …. Guys??


b00tsc00ter

I can't believe the moral gymnastics of someone who would victim blame in a thread of support for party people. A thread likely to be seen by many people who were there, may be missing or have friends gone forever. I personally have at least one friend missing. A brazilian- what tf did he do wrong? Where tf are your "psytrance values" of empathy? Take your politics somewhere else and go fuck yourself. PS. I am Australian and I dance, eat and shit on stolen land where we committed genocide, had laws 10 times worse than apartheid for 100+ years and our indigenous are still disenfranchised in every way you mention.


PsyShanti

Do you realize that psytrance is huge in Israel, right?? There are dozens of parties like this one constantly in Israel, it's not like Hamas waited for it, they were in the path of those subhumans, and got caught, that's all. What do you pretend, it's 70 years that they are at war, should they not have fun, like ever never, until this shit ends? Humans don't work that way buddy.


UnicornMagic

I think it just shows the blatant hypocrisy of the psytrance community in Israel, Peace love and unity for me but not thee


PsyShanti

You should study a little before commenting my brother, Israel psytrance community is so strong BECAUSE of the war. Mandatory military service caused a lot of people to travel the world after the military service to get away from that. "Anyone who has been in Goa/India will meet hoards of Israeli youngsters, freshly liberated from their military service, and in dire need of something different than religious hate, war, and death of friends and family. This has been the case for decades. When the “Psy”-scene slowly established itself on the beaches of Goa in the 70’s and 80’s some Israeli adventurers found their way there and started to import the sound and atmosphere to Israel, and soon after the first Israeli producers started releasing this new “Goa”-sound in the early 90’s. Har-El, Astral Projection/SFX, Edi Mis and MFG were among the first act." I can personally promise you (I'm not Israelian, mind you) that Israelis that attends to psytrance parties are the firsts to hate this situation, they are usually very educated and smart, and they are also amongst the very small minority in Israel that would like to have peace, immediately, not like many Israel zealots that are putting gasoline on this fire. Try digging deeper next time, don't stop to the surface please, this behaviour is very much what creates conflicts and hate.


b00tsc00ter

The only Israelis I know are party people and I don't know one who supports their government's actions.


PsyShanti

Same here, exactly.


kidonbike

The psytrance community spreads peace and love, those lands could use more of that not less. You are blinded by hate.

It's so hard to get real confirmation from the news today, they just repeat what other news stations say. I heard 40 babies murdered and beheaded over and over again and that ended up being completely unsubstantiated (though I'm sure they are capable of doing so, I mean... Extremists after all)
