The Israeli rescue service Zaka says its paramedics removed more than 260 bodies from a music festival that came under attack by Hamas militants.
The total figure of bodies found is expected to be higher, as other paramedic teams were also working in the area and Zaka added that the bodies “haven’t all been collected yet”.
Early on Saturday morning, Hamas targeted Nova music festival, a techno rave in the desert near the border with Gaza.
Videos shared on social media and by Israeli news outlets showed dozens of festival-goers running through an open field as gunshots rang out. Many hid in nearby fruit orchards or were gunned down as they fled.
You know I read these threads and they remind me so much of Reddit. And now I don’t know if reddit really got shittier or if the shittiness was always there it was just ignorable. These comments are definitely reddit tier and that’s sad for the fediverse.
People need to realize reddit and social media is shitty because people are inherently shitty. The people on lemmy are no different.
“I used to have support for the Native Americans, but then a tribe massacred an outpost on the land that was slowly being carved from them by colonizers. Now I’ve lost all goodwill for their struggle”
The indigenous, oppressed peoples proceed to get wiped out and the colonizing states take over the entire land mass
This type of violence does not need to celebrated. It should be mourned as tragic. Its perpetrators condemned.
But so many are applying fairness or rules to a conflict that has neither.
If you create the conditions for war and terrorism, do not be surprised when war and terrorism come.
well put.
oppress a population until they fight back and then yell terrorism
If you create the conditions for war and terrorism, do not be surprised when war and terrorism come.d
What do you think raping and massacring people at a music festival is going to do?
That clearly isn’t “fighting back”. It’s not war, its not even terrorism. They aren’t achieving any sort of win, or working towards independence.
This is honestly a disgusting comment.
indigenous, oppressed peoples
Uh… you’re gonna have to clarify which side you mean here.
While it’s pretty clear Native Americans were in America first- not so much with the current belligerents.
Both Arabs and Proto-Jews originate from the area now called Isreal.
Netanyahu is entering the “find out” part of his plan of “fuck around and find out.” Maybe having a music festival minutes away from a genocide wasn’t the best idea?
Wholesale slaughter of innocents? What a way to show Palestinians are the ones we should support.
