Reminds me of when you guys invaded my country, murdered my people and fucked off home to call us names and racist sluts for decades. No apology. Now you guys want to moralize to the rest of the world while your hands drip with blood.

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.
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.
It’s indeed so hard to keep up.
I know it's different, but that reminds me of the Gish gallop.
"The Gish gallop is a rhetorical technique in which a person in a debate attempts to overwhelm an opponent by presenting an excessive number of arguments, with no regard for their accuracy or strength, with a rapidity that makes it impossible for the opponent to address them in the time available."
Oh no... Israel is doing the Gish gallop but for human rights atrocities... this explains it perfectly.
Yup with both parties supporting it. Such a grand time.

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.
There has been minimal pushback to the Israeli apartheid regime and decades long genocide in Palestine. You think a few more deaths are going to inspire real international action?

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.
I agree that it was a blatantly out of line and wrong thing to say, but it's not wishing harm. At least the phrasing isn't.
Look at it this way. Say someone has tires on their car which are practically falling apart. The conversation goes:
Friend: "you really need to get new tires, they're complete thread-bare"
Owner: "nah, they're fine"
Friend: "you're being negligent, I hope you don't get into an accident"
The way the CNN conversation reads to me is that the guy was implying "if we listen to you, then things might progress to the point where you might get attacked, and I hope your pager doesn't go off".
Maybe that's not what he meant, but generally that's how such a statement is used.

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.

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.

Mehdi is the GOAT.
Basically telling someone who's Arab, "I hope you die" in the most racist way possible.
This hate is brought to you by Israel.
