If I can mow down Arab and Russians and Chinese soldiers in any number of American video games, why not Israelis?
The article talks about gushing blood and gruesome visuals as if CoD didn’t ask us to commit a terrorist attack in an airport 15 years ago. At least this game narrows your targets to IDF soldiers, according to the article.
Also, the game historically has had ~25 concurrent players at any given time. I don’t think this game is as important as certain people would want you to believe.
The IDF is objectively, by every definition, a terrorist organization. And the US, EU, Israel, and other such white settler countries already paint all arabs and Palestinians as terrorists.
Oh and for good measure, Hamas isnt a terror org. It's a non profit created by a guy whose family was killed by terrorists.
An organisation whose main ambition is the destruction of an entire nation and its people is not a terrorist organisation?
Correct, the destruction of a nation that has no right to exist and has spent its entire existence commiting ethnic cleansing and genocide. That's not terrorism, that's fighting for freedom.
So you think Israel is responsible for genocide, yet your solution to that is to... kill them all.
Do you not see the irony here?
No right to exist as a nation doesn't imply the death of every citizen
No one ever said that, the nation needs to be destroyed. The people were fine without the nation.
Palestine has hosted Jews for longer than Judaism has existed, continuously. The removal of a Jewish supremacist fascist state commiting genocide does not in fact mean genocide.
Hamas has been exceedingly clear in its goals, so has every other Palestinian movement; elimination of the fascist state.
From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.
And I hope someday there will be camps for people like you to be reducated. Even brainwashed fascists like you deserve a chance to earn your humanity back.
If your family was kidnapped tortured, or in the best case scenario killed, every day, for longer than anyone in your family remembers, and will be for as long as you choose to stay alive, you might want to fight. There's a reason Holocaust survivors tend to avoid Israel, bad memories.
You keep changing the subject, so I'll just end with; until Israel stops committing genocide, especially the most well documented genocide in history, it will keep getting attacked. That's how oppression works, the oppressed fight back. Something no living Israeli knows.
The Holocause was most well-documented by the perpetrators. That's why The Diary of Anne Rice was so exceptional. Those who survived it were not prone to talk about it much for years afterwards.
The survivors of the current genocide are begging us to notice the deaths of the victims we are seeing all-but-live on camera. Cameras held by both them and IDF soldiers boasting about it, no less. Nazi Germany would have loved someone so prone to looking away as you.
That "process" in the decades following WW2 was the creation of Isreal and various countries exporting their Jewish populations to Israel. Personally, I would rather have Jews as neighbors than shove them into a foreign land stolen from others with targets on their backs, but do go on.
Meanwhile, October 7th rapes we have "reasonable grounds" to believe in, according to the UN, while most Israeli hostage deaths are attributable to The Hannibal Directive, and IDF soldiers literally boast of rapes and such on-line.
The only one simping terrorsists here is you. I'm not denying anyone's crimes, but you want to use some crimes as an excuse to deny the visible evidence of others. Israeli citizens have been tricked into scape-goating themselves in the Middle East on behalf of Western countries, and all you will focus on is the brown people who want their land back being "inherently evil".
By your reasoning, I should move back to the US southwest and bitch at some natives for ever speaking a language other than English. Nevermind their people lived there for thousands of years, I was born there, so my claim is legit to, right? As if.
You're funny. I'm at a Hockey game with my kids. By arguing there is no Palestinian genocide, you're simping for the IDF, who are demonstrably terrorists, for which you are simping.
Stick to what you're good at, I guess, this holier-than-thou, ad nauseam schtick ain't it. Just up-chuck the quote from when Conan met Ghengis Kan and run away like a good little simp.
Never even quoted you nor invoked what you said in that last comment. Meerly addressed your stupid edit and re-hashed the single point you've steadfastly refused to acknowlege, even now.
Oh no, Iran's backing them? Who cares. The entire West is "backing" Israel. Feeding them weapons and egging-on their worst impulses to keep them making themselves targets.
At this point, I'm pretty sure you don't care one whit more for Israelis and IDF soldiers than I do. Keeping their soldiers and leadership from being held accountable for their actions just solidifies the monolith of evil their entire country represents to their neighbors.
Call me when Iran invades ... well, anywhere really. If I invaded a foreign land, killed a bunch of people, burned down their houses, and brought my family along to boast how proud of me they were, I wouldn't be surprised when me and/or mine ended up raped and murdered, even generations down the line. Pretty much how the story plays out in all the history books.
Many of them, in particular, resulted in this thing called a "diaspora". Might well have been the smartest thing some people(among ANY people) ever did.
Your last paragraph: I have less reason to do that than modern Israelis did, which I've pointed out was something like negative millions of reasons.
Congratulations on completely missing the point over and over again. Your prize is to keep on wallowing in your own incoherent bullshit.
No one mentioned Iran, stay on topic.
