Israel’s leadership is pushing the allegations that Hamas fighters raped Israeli women during the October 7 attacks for its own political objectives while the government’s ongoing refusal to allow the United Nations to conduct a full investigation into the matter threatens to hinder any evidence, advocates have warned.

Hey, @Linkerbaan@lemmy.world do you provide this much scrutiny when you post articles from your blog websites? Or do you reserve that charitability only for one side?

[–] Linkerbaan@lemmy.world 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

There's a thing called a "reputation". Lying about rape makes future rape claims without evidence less credible.

[–] TheFonz@lemmy.world -2 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Sure sure. But my question was-just in case you missed it: do you submit the blog posts you spam here to the same level of scrutiny or is your charitability only extended to only one side? That's all we need to see that this is all a big larp for you

The easiest way to get rid of Linkerbaan and Hamas is to stop the genocide.

[–] TheFonz@lemmy.world -3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

What people like @Linkerbaan@lemmy.world (and most of these Lemmy LARPers) don't understand is that I am the most on the side of Palestinians. However, I'm a solutions oriented person. I want the suffering of Palestinians to stop. Now. I don't care to larp on social media for Karma points so I don't spam news threads non-stop with junk blog opinion pieces. Their only goal is to dilute the conversation.

We all are aware the genocide is happening.

I want a ceasefire and I want to bring both sides to the table to negotiations because the Palestinian people are the ones caught in this awful situation between a proxy war for Iran and the zealotry of right wing Israeli politicians.

Yes you just deny that israel is an Apartheid. Very pro Palestine.

[–] TheFonz@lemmy.world -1 points 4 months ago

Buddy, I just conceded it's an apartheid state two comments away in the same thread. Now what will you say about me in order to obfuscate and muddy the conversation?

[–] Linkerbaan@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Person that says israel isn't an Apartheid says I am larping

[–] TheFonz@lemmy.world -2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Sure, Israel/Palestine could be classified as an apartheid state. There you go. Back to the original question (3rd time): Will you extend the same charitability to articles critical of Hamas? Or does the larp not work that way? Was just curious

[–] Linkerbaan@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago (2 children)

You were just going around saying Palestinians don't have to drive on separate roads interesting how fast you change your mind.

Not sure where I blindly quote everything Hamas says as the truth like the IDF rape accusation defenders do.

[–] TheFonz@lemmy.world -1 points 4 months ago

No pal, I was very precise in my language: I said within Israel there are millions of Muslims that coexist with Jews. That was in direct response to the garbage you were posting in that specific thread because you are unable to engage with more than one topic at a time --perhaps it's too difficult for you. I understand. All this larping on social media can be tiring after a while.

Kony 2012, amirite?

Because you constantly post opinion blog pieces on every community and they seem to not hold a candle to the slightest scrutiny, but when someone brings receipts (like UN reports) suddenly you are Nancy Drew. It's pretty obvious that you have double standards when it comes to media literacy, no?
