Why is the video cut like that? Is there a longer version?

[–] Milk_Sheikh@lemm.ee 3 points 13 hours ago

I’ll let the Israelis themselves fill in the blanks - but just ask yourself was this group of Israeli police really trying to get him to the ground to make an arrest? Or were they beating the shit out of him as their first priority?

[the Israeli state’s] actions always conform to the power structure of ruler and subject, mechanisms that leave Palestinians entirely at the mercy of decisions made by Israelis: officials of the Civil Administration (the branch of the military designated to handle civil matters in Area C of the West Bank), judges, politicians, Israel Security Agency officers, prison guards, soldiers and Border Police officers.

For context:

White Europeans are perpetrating a genocide on the native population of the land they invaded while playing the victim and breaking many treaties, international human rights laws, and the credibility of the UN.

These are IDF soldiers which will one day be remembered broadly as akin to "Gestapo" or perhaps just "Nazis". Here in the video there is a gang of Israeli state sanctioned terrorists beating an unarmed lanky man in light clothing.

Despite the fact that there could not be an excuse to simply beat this man on the street some particularly depraved people will grasp for any excuse to hate the oppressed and glorify the oppressors.

The video is cut, likely because Israel will kill journalists it thinks might expose the inhumanity endemic to the nations sickness. They consider them to be acceptable targets because the journalists can provide evidence of the monstrous behavior of this right wing religious ethnostate.

I don't think you'll find any video capable of recording the past 100 years of oppression to give you the full context. I'm not sure that would even be enough for you to see the truth.

If you look at the first couple of seconds, it looks like the young fellow was fighting with an older guy in a light blue uniform who staggers off and that's when the IDF guys started beating on the young fellow. Obviously, there is some preceding conflict that the videographer either didn't record, or which didn't suit his propaganda narrative.

I hope you are not one of those "we don't know the context people" to justify actions against Palestinians civilians
