The murdered we’re Al-Muntasir Billah Abdullah, 26; and Youssef Asasa, 37.
Their poor families… Also, fuck the AP for making that paragraph 11. Jeez.
Israeli forces on Thursday killed a pair of Palestinian men in the occupied West Bank after they appeared to surrender to troops, drawing Palestinian accusations that the men were executed “in cold blood.” The Israeli military said it was investigating.
The IDF is filled with racist motherfuckers who should be charged with murder and promptly sent to the worst jail in the world.
Seriously, the IDF is hardly a professional military at this point, in most ways it is simply a formalized institution for ethnic cleansing using expensive military equipment they are given as handouts by the US military.
The IDF does not even follow basic rules of engagement, they see a civilian, have impulse feelings about it and then shoot. No threat analysis, no consideration over whether lethal force is necessary by a chain of command and absolutely NO accountability for blatant horrific war crimes. The IDF is not a military, it is a bunch of murderers wearing military fatigues.
Not disagreeing, but “at this point” implies they were ever anything else.
They’ve proven themselves a capable actual army in the past against numerically far superior opponents, displaying both organizational and individual competence alongside their evil. Now they don’t even have that. It’s just a very well funded gang.
Yeah that’s fair, though I do have to note that other than Yom Kippur in none of Israel’s past conflicts was it seriously outnumbered. That’s the image they like to sell, and intuitively it feels like it should be true, but it’s really not. Israel has always been good at raising massive armies relative to their population, and for instance way surprisingly outnumbered their enemies in 1948. Again not contesting your point; I agree that they were much more competent in the past.
For the people who want to see the video. PS: DON’T. There’s a good reason outlets are only posting pictures. https://veganism.social/users/vega/statuses/115624229593254481
and took the bodies afterward for organ harvesting
Things are bad enough without such baseless claims.
Maybe @answerplease77@lemmy.world was referring to:
In 2009, an interview with Dr. Yehuda Hiss—former head of the Abu Kabir Forensic Institute—was leaked. Recorded in 2000 by Nancy Scheper-Hughes—professor of anthropology at the University of California-Berkeley—Hiss said that pathologists at the institute took skin, corneas, bones and heart valves from the bodies of Israeli citizens, Israeli soldiers, Palestinians and immigrants, often without consent from the deceased’s family.
Which came from:

The links below may be referring to the same article:
A brief history of Israel’s theft and trafficking of Palestinian organs
I must apologize as I haven’t read the rest of the results, but I used search.disroot.org and the articles above are outdated.
That sounds like Israel. A country that should be bombed into the ground on the character traits of its armed services alone, without even getting into the politics or history of the place.
