I wonder if the US finds Guantanamo Bay troubling?

Kbobabob ,

The US State Department says a photo of an Israeli soldier standing over a stripped and wounded Palestinian in Gaza is ‘deeply troubling’.

That's it. The entire article. Awesome journalism.

ULS ,

It's complete bullshit. America as a country has no beating heart or empathy.

They'll enclose a strongly worded letter with the next shipment of weapons.

Biden to Bibi:

"Pal,

Get your house in order already. Hard evidence about your army's war crimes and genocide, unlike your bullshit claims we keep supporting and coercing the rest of the world to support, have leaked today, as well.

No big matter, though. May these weapons find you in good genocides.

Your best fan,
Joe."

Binthinkin ,

Because the US remembers how it looked when it did Abu Ghraib.

The people who produced the Abu Ghraib photos are suddenly 'deeply troubled'?

Doubt.

naturalgasbad ,

Deeply troubled that it was released

Doods ,

Stop revealing our plans! Our police force can hardly arrest protestors fast enough!

there are no good guys in this, only innocent civilians and those pushed by injustice to maniacal acts.

Israeli authorities have opened an investigation into possible sexual crimes during the most deadly attack on Israel in its history.

This is going to just be more bullshit from the genocider state, in their endless stream of bullshit to distract from their ongoing genocide.

Masterblaster ,

there's video evidence. apparently more than a half hour of it that many journalists couldn't sit through. this is from reuters.

edit: it's ok to take a side and still condemn horrible acts of brutality. my heart is with the palestinian people, but i don't support hamas.

If this evidence existed, your source didn’t think it was an important enough thing to mention.

Yeah like when israel said that hamas was raping people while also under heavy fire from apache helicopters. You belive this if you want to

That’s the bullshit the occupiers spewed three months ago, which no one who’s been paying attention buys anymore. Hasbara is falling apart at the seams.

Masterblaster ,

then why haven't any of the agencies reporting it made a retraction yet? are you that gullible that you sincerely believe your precious hamas can do no wrong and has been taking the best care of those poor civilians ever since they were captured?

Because they are Western corporate media outlets who are supporting this genocide in conjunction with their governments. They are Manufacturing Consent for genocide.

There is video evidence, but you can’t see it because it’s too heart-wrenchingly incontrovertible for viewing.

bamboo ,

What motive would you have that makes you want to post an article rehashing 10/7 propaganda on an article about actual evidence of the IDF torturing Palestinians?

Consider how far you have to be to be both sides-ing genocide. Jews rose up against the Nazis multiple times, but in the context of the Holocaust it’s clear that their actions were reasonable and acceptable given they were fighting for their survival against a genocidal regime.

Masterblaster ,

hey, i'm not going to say that a 'by any means necessary' approach is unjustifiable. you can certainly think that, and i would sympathize with you to an extent. however, in this case i don't.

once you're born on that soil, you have as much of a say to it as anyone else born on that soil. you can't help where you're born.

Doods ,

Israel highly encourages immigration of Jews to it from all over the world.

The Palestinian population in Gaza was under economical (siege?*) for years.

Israeli solders would regularly attack and kill Palestinian civilians.

Israel had a pilot-less plane that would fly in Gaza 24/7, which would cause annoying noise - a form of torture used in guantanamo - and when their fuel ran out they would suicide-crash on civilians.

The "Democratic Governemnt" the US/partners gave Palestine is nothing more than a means to control them, and when people in the west bank protested to support Gaza the police force arrested protestors and used violence**, and the Palestinian governemnt claims to have "30,000 soldiers with 30,000 rifles", but they're nowhere to be found when half the country's in ruins, yet they complain that Hamas didn't plan the 7th of October with them, preferring to obtain their rights through begging in the UN***. (not like it ever worked, as they're all Israel fanboys as we've seen these last few months)

I am not done yet with the governemnt, do you know that Abu Mazin (The Palestinian president) had a meeting with Joe Biden during the war (And asked how his day went and wether he slept well BTW), when the US was clearly supplying the weapons that destroyed half of Palestine; Imagine if Zeliniski (Ukraine's president) met Putin and treated him like that during the war? what would your reaction to that be?

Do you think they just took their land and left them to live in peace?

*I think that's the right word.

**Further evidence the government's just a puppet

***To quote the Abu Mazin: "If you had a dog, wouldn't you protect it?"

Masterblaster ,

i completely understand that israel is an unjust state and i'm well aware of how they operate. i condemn them for making palestine into the prison state that it is.

at the same time, i don't really care what happens to groups of abrahamic peoples. as an atheist, i'm indifferent. that's just my honest opinion. i think both groups are part of an old world that will never function correctly.

That's bleak, man. I'm also an atheist, but that doesn't mean I'm don't care about other people.

I wonder if Biden is going to spam Netanyahu... He might get ripped. I expect it to be very...

Truly, I lost interest in my sarcasm halfway through that. I'm just sad to be a witness to this.

Potatos_are_not_friends ,

Any updates how the US government is upset and plans to take action about all the dead children in Gaza from military operations? Or nah?

FreudianCafe ,

I think GenoJoe will do a humanitarian, free and democractic bombing of another hundred children. Just in case

Tolstoshev ,

They’re deeply troubled that it got out.

AdamEatsAss ,

The US knows a thing or two about war and torture. This picture looks a lot more like Guantanamo bay than a POW/displaced person camp.
