"I'll bet you wouldn't say that joke about Muslims or Jews". The joke they actually have in mind:
Good that they banned him. Wishing someone that has a conversation with you but does not agree with you this kind of harm means you need to be excluded from the discourse.
Israelis are now using the same arguments as they do in Israel on American TV.
Not even Western media can protect them from themselves anymore.
The absolute state of Hasbara.
western media will always only protect israel. this dude isn't going to face any consequences. "banned from CNN", yeah we'll see about that. bro probably just had to get back to englin airforce base to post more zionist propaganda on reddit, he wasn't ever asked to leave and certainly not told to never come back. mark my words, he will be back on CNN within the next two months.
I am moreso hinting towards completely insane Israeli articles such as this not getting western coverage: https://lemmy.world/post/21368819
I'm still flabbergasted that there hasn't been more of an international outrage concerning those pagers.
The use of mines as an indiscriminate weapon are already frowned upon,
And here they are using them, scattered throughout a civilian population with absolutely no regard to who could be standing next to their target.
Un-fucking believable.
well we know who could be standing next to their target- another brown person in a majority muslim country. IE, nobody western supremacist racist pigs give a fuck about which is why there was no punishment and there will be no punishment against israel for any single thing they do. if it were gonna happen it would have by now. it's not as tho once they get to that 300,000th dead palestinian suddenly the "rules based order" is gonna enact some of those "consequences for breaking the rules" on israel. not gonna happen. someone needs to dylan crooks netanyahu.
It was a terrorist attack. We must condemn all terrorist attacks
We must condemn all terrorist attacks
At this point it'd probably be less work to praise them when (if?) they don't commit any...
Every day Israel doesn't commit an atrocity, they get a cookie.
Fortunately, I like cookies, cause it looks like I'm going to be hanging onto them for a while.
There hasn't been outrage because blowing up people with pagers is actually the most targeted thing Israel has done in the past year. Certainly a step up from killing hundreds of refugees to maybe take out one hamas guy.
They killed children in that pager attack. Which I guess is part for the course, so ya, nevermind, you might be right.
Accused hamas guy
They bombed dozens of hospitals and orphanages across two countries and also started a starvation siege since that time.
There is no outrage left

This really hit me. As in maybe it explains some things since the internet was created. It’s indeed so hard to keep up.
Not mines, IEDs. It was an indiscriminate terrorist attack on a civilian population using improvised explosive devices.
indiscriminate terrorist attack on a civilian population
You're describing what the Palestinians did to Israel on 10/7, and have continued doing this entire time, when they launch rockets at Israeli population centers.
That's also bad. Both of the sides are bad, and the Palestinian civilians are caught in the crossfire.
population centers
Why does one side have population centers and the other human shields? It's wrong regardless.
Basically telling someone who's Arab, "I hope you die" in the most racist way possible.
This hate is brought to you by Israel.
Girdusky appeared indignant on social media in the hours afterwards and said in a tweet "apparently you can't go on CNN if you make a joke."
"It was a prank, bro!"
The last refuge of the Trumpist shitheel.
This goes back a long way. There are posts on neo-nazi BBS systems from the 80s where they are talking about the strategy of making a racist comment, then playing it off as a joke if there’s pushback, and noting that a given audience may be receptive to more extreme and overt racist messaging in the future.
