  • I can't find any info on who is writing or who funds infoterkiniviral. @watyuhhgg could you provide some relevant links?

  • So far, it doesn't look to me like US is turning against Israel. I'd say it's more like a superficial change of narrative, abstaining is not the same as voting against. Due to elections coming in combination with Biden's unpopular foreign policy, he had to show a shift. As long as the US provides money and guns to Israel and doesn't even threaten them to stop doing so, I don't see Netanyahu, Smotrige or Ben-Gvir stopping their crimes against humanity.

  • @SharkAttak in the link you provided it says stuff like:

    There's threads denyng the oppression of Uyghur muslims (...)

    Other posts deny that North Korea is oppressive.

    I don't understand how these posts are a proof that lemmy has a bunch of devs that are tankies, since there is no link to the problematic threads they mention. If somehow I missed them could you point those out to me?

    Also not too sure I understand how this is a topic related to devs and not mods?

  • Here is another report from Forensic Architecture, from late February:

    An Assessment of Visual Material Presented by the Israeli Legal Team at the International Court of Justice (ICJ)

    Findings

    We found eight instances where the Israeli legal team misrepresented the visual evidence they cited, through a combination of incorrect annotations and labelling, and misleading verbal descriptions. These instances are presented and explained in this report.

    Our study also reveals that the Israeli legal team presented single instances of alleged Palestinian military use of civilian infrastructure as blanket justifications for the systematic and widespread attacks on civilians, shelters, schools, and hospitals.

  • Hope it's true.Still, I'll wait and see what the US-backed state of Israel has to say about it. US has lied so many times so far on that, that I don't trust their claims.

  • If you don't like how it sounds describing what the US backed state of Israel is doing, maybe you should talk to them.

    Apart from that, let's see your points one by one.

    food aid massacre

    Other related content has titles such as:Carnage at Gaza food aid site amid Israeli gunfire. Here’s what we know - CNN

    So it looks like food aid massacre is valid after all.

    4 children starve

    Well it's actually: 4 More Children Starve to Death

    Would you prefer this one?Gaza: Worst famine fears realised as 10th child reportedly ‘starves to death’ - UN News

    “injured Palestinian”

    You deny they are injured or that Palestinians exist? Or that there are no Palestinians, only terrorists?All readings of what you say are tragic btw.

    For the last 2 I'll only say: you deny that Palestinians are trying to survive in agony? Due to killings/bombings/starving, Genocide I mean.

  • So the US gives some food to Palestinians, and plenty of bombs & money to Zionists (while they are accused of Genocide and ICJ said "plaussible" they are doing one).

    I think I will start using the acronym USBSI (US Backed State of Israel). UBSI maybe? I dunno, open to suggestions!

  • Seems kinda reasonable. Hamas probably killed them sadly

    Why would you assume that and not that they were bombed by the US-backed state of Israel? Zionists often kill Israelis.

    IDF Investigation Finds High Probability That Hostage Was Killed During Air Force Bombing

    and this:

    According to a police source, the investigation also indicates that an IDF combat helicopter that arrived to the scene and fired at terrorists there apparently also hit some festival participants.

  • South America has issues with colonial border since the europeans colonisers left, and later on also due to US intervensions. Nicaragua has additionally a horrifying past from the Sandinistas revolution -supported by people from all over the world- that succeeded and turned authoritarian, as they do. Not that long ago. Many people who fought in it are still alive. To my understanding they still suffer the consequences.

    In order for the US-backed state of Israel to stop killing and starving civilians and children, all other countries need to demand it by diplomatic pressures, economic sanctions, boycott etc.

  • Thank you, it's good to know these things.

  • Israel is well known for its pinkwashing and greenwashing.

    Is there already a term like war-washing or we're gonna have to invent one to describe what Israel is doing?

  • Dammit. Which politics [kbin, lemmy.world, chirp.social etc]?

  • The title: U.S. [claims it] wants Israeli written assurances on using U.S. weapons in Gaza by mid-MarchThe last sentence: The Israeli Defense Ministry declined to comment.

    Does this sums it up or is it just my impression??

  • Thanks for the clarifications. Of course noone can be responsible for stuff that happened before their lifetime.

    Our responsibility lays on to how we address this colonial past. The way I see things, we need to face it and address it, not put it under the rug. It's the least we can do and its important to do so for the millions of people around the world who were not alive then, but still have to live/survive the outcomes of colonial past policies. Racism would be one of them, the list is long.

  • To my understanding forza nuova was gaining a tiny percentage in elections, bellow 0.30%. Meloni is the prime minister.

  • I'm not sure I understand what you say?
