The ‘Israeli’ army has launched a criminal investigation into the leak of footage from the Sde Teiman detention camp, which shows a blindfolded, handcuffed Palestinian detainee being raped for approximately 15 minutes by a unit of ‘Israeli’ reservists.
The probe focuses on whether officials in the Military Advocate General’s (MAG) office which facilitated the leak to Channel 12, rather than targeting the perpetrators themselves. ‘Israel’s’ chief military prosecutor, Maj. Gen. Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi, has taken leave amid the scandal.
When WikiLeaks blew open US corruption, war crimes and human rights violations they went after the whistle blowers, Julian Assange, and Chelsea Manning.
United States “The leader of the free world” and Israel “The only democracy in the Middle East” in action.
The fuck? Why are they investigating the whistleblower and not the fucking rapists?
Fuck that shithole and everyone who supports it.
They had pro rape protests, they’re goy and Zionists don’t see goy as fully human. Rape them, enslave them, take their homes it doesn’t matter and never really has.

Why are you surprised . Zionists even before the creation of the terrorist state wanted to genocide palestinians
This is indeed horrific. It’s also almost standard practice for many nations, including the USA (my country), where whistleblowers are routinely put in prison instead of their information being evaluated seriously.
Hay hay! Corporate whistleblowers often just die. Of reason.
Because the paradigm of the 21th century is that opposing genocide is worse than doing genocide.
Please advocate for Nuremberg Trials for these Nazi atrocities. Justice for the victims of ethno-nationalist fascism is as necessary here just as it was after the holocaust.
Makes me want to throw up
I just cannot fathom the level of inhumanity it takes, even in war, to do something like this. To see a prisoner raped and think that the right course of action is to persecute the person who brought it to light. These people are evil.
It’s beyond fucked up. The “state of israel” is a terrorist organization that must be destroyed, and everyone involved tried for their crimes.
Seriously. Even if everything went exactly how I want it to (it won’t ever) it would be difficult to punish an entire country without also committing atrocities though.
They are supremacists that see everyone else as dogs to be abused and killed.
It’s why Israel has no future and needs to be wiped from the map and only spoken about as a shit stain on the underpants of history
I agree. Here’s the thing that stresses me out with reading about historical context and mistakes other leaders have made about atrocities like this.
There isn’t always historical pretext. New things happen. And this could be just how it always is, for at least our lifetimes. The only option is fighting back somehow. But all the organizing I’ve done for the last 10 years have barely done shit.

I’m a Jew, and I’ve been speaking out against the occupation and genocide in Palestine since the beginning, and for decades before this current war.
Your bigoted generalizations only expose your insecurities. If you really believe this, then you haven’t met very many people who aren’t exactly like you. Or you’re simply incapable of empathy. Either way, this bullshit isn’t helpful.
Dudes saying the same shit that he claims to be against. He isn’t aware of his own hypocrisy and that frustrates me and I want to understand it better
Fuck off Nazi, you carry the same hate. People are people and genocide is genocide.

I’m curious. Do you believe that about all people of jewish descent? Or just about practising Jews? Or is it specifically Zionists?
Also what are your political leanings? Do you consider yourself a fascist? A capitalist? A communist?
Didn’t Israelis advocate for the right for military personnel to rape Palestinian prisoners?
That’s why they’re trying to find the whistle-blower.
There is also right to rape protest in israel.
Sorry, you have any other sources than X?
Maybe going off what their leaders have said when asked about it?
Yeah that’s what I was trying to refer to.
Absolutely disgusting.
Yes this is that case.
Why don’t they investigate the rapists? Is anything illegal in Israel?
They held a “right to r*pe rally” after the incident and won the public support victory. The actual r*pist is now doing a talk show tour in Israel. Ben Gvir said if their Hamas then they can be r*ped. With no due process or evidence at all they can say anyone is Hamas, arrest them and r*pe them. Israel and America or totally morally bankrupt.
You can say rape.
Maybe lemmy.ml censors it.
Why are they putting Israel and Israeli in quotes? Are they implying that it wasn’t actually Israelis perpetrating this, or that it isn’t actually Israel performing the investigation? Or is this some political statement I’m not privy to?
Roya is Jordanian news site. Jordan doesn’t recognize Israel as a country but an illegal entity.
I thought Jordan had recognized Israel in 1994, when they signed the peace agreement.
Nice to know that they have retracted.
Gotcha, thanks for the context.
Israel is a recently created country that only exists on stolen Palestinian land. It’s highlighting the fakeness of its existence. It’s occupied Palestine.
Huge chunk of world’s countries are younger than Israel. Like most of African countries for example. I don’t think the age itself means much
It matters as it’s relative to international law being established and the country explicitly existing on stolen land.
It sounds like in itself it doesn’t matter but rather in connection with something else
Well that’s just fucking stupid. The world has accepted Israel as a country for almost 80 years. You can hate them, you can say they never should have existed in the first place, but they are an actual country that actually exists. Even if they get completely wiped out and destroyed, every history book will still start out with “Israel was a country…”.
Pretending like they aren’t a country by putting quotes around their name comes across as extremely childish. Like a little kid who’s angry at their parents so they start calling them by their first name instead of “mom and dad”. Doesn’t matter how awful they are, doesn’t matter how much the child stomps their feet or what they say, it doesn’t even matter if they emancipate themselves later and legally change their name. Nothing will change the fact that they are the child’s, actual, literal parents.
If the author is really trying to pettily claim Israel isn’t a country by putting quotes around their name, then that’s just shitty journalism relying on personal emotions instead of unbiasedly presenting facts. And yes, I am aware that’s how most journalism is these days, but that doesn’t make it better.
The world has accepted Israel as a country for almost 80 years.
No, most of the states of the world has recognized the State of Israel, but not all. See this comment from @geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml.
Even in that comment chain, it references that Jordan signed a peace treaty with them. So at one point they did, in fact, recognize it as a country.
They have a seat at the UN. They have passports recognized by every developed nation. They have treaties and engage in international trade with other nations. They fit every definition of a country. They are, in fact, a country.
Once again, just because you don’t like them and think they shouldn’t exist, doesn’t change their status as a country. I personally don’t like North Korea, but I don’t go around claiming it’s not a real country, because that would be a fucking stupid claim to make.
I personally don’t like North Korea, but I don’t go around claiming it’s not a real country, because that would be a fucking stupid claim to make.
It would be because South Korea is the fake state established by the united states, North Korea is the rightful successor of the People’s Republic of Korea the first sovereign government of the korean peninsula since the japanese colonization.
Koreans didn’t genocide a native population and engage in settler colonialism to steal Korea after international law was established.
Yea, Israel is pretty shitty and terrible. Still a country.
Again, No. Algerian, by example, don’t recognize the State of Israel, and it’s not the only that not recognize it. I expect that they don’t accept their passports (but I can’t confirm it).
Jordan historically has had a strange relation with Palestine and the PLO. A pro-Palestine population with their elites and monarchy fearing them. Then, I will be not surprised if they changed their mind with the recognition, that was done just after the Oslo accords.
But my comment was to explain that I disagree with your claim that’s just fucking stupid to use quotes for ‘Israel’ and that the generalization you used to justify your position was not accurate.
Someone mentioned in another comment the author doesn’t acknowledge Israel as a country. Much like Israel doesn’t recognize Palestine as a country, but other nations do.
I despise the terrorist Netanyahu and the Israeli government, but I agree with your sentiment.
Maybe because israel is a “state”? Don’t know. But it should be dismantled.
Yeah, the leak is the problem here. Fucking monsters.
Why is Israel word between quotes?
