Palestinian girl filming Israeli soldiers gets shot at in the West Bank

So let me refer to my "stop using antisemitic words" chart...
The Little Girl "Hamas Militant" was Filming "Threatening with a deadly weapon" Israeli soldiers from the safety of her own Home "Hamas Base".
I'm kinda in a political vacuum and, being Jewish, am kinda shielded from being called antisemitic, but are people for realsies being called antisemitic for saying statements like "a little girl was filming from her house when the IDF shot her," or is it more hyperbolic than literal? I mean, I've known some assholes from the Jewish community who would probably pull that shit to get out of an argument, but does anyone actually listen to them? I mean, I'm not gonna take hygiene tips from someone covered in dog shit...
Either way, selfishly, I just want my family in Israel to be safe; idealistically, the Israeli state should have been checked before it had even gotten to this point. You can't destroy people's lives and homes and then think they're gonna roll over when you corner them.
I hope against all logic that there's a quick and less lethal end to all this. After that, it'd sure be fucking great to see some repercussions for war crimes and crimes against humanity for once. I can't even imagine what the poor Palestinian survivors of this are gonna be like when it's all over. How can you ever go back to any reasonable form of daily living?
It's a joke about how everything is a hamas base in the eyes of the IDF army, and the answer from the Israeli government to any criticism calling it anti semitism.
Thank you for that answer! Fuck the terrorists in government on both sides destroying all the beautiful people between them. Also, I've met some non-beautiful people in both countries. So fuck them too, but small-scale.
Yes people really do for realises pull out the antisemitism remarks when it comes to criticism of Israel.
Honestly wouldn’t put it past being official policy for Israeli astroturfing/propaganda a la JIDF shenanigans.
I was gonna tell you to be careful with that JIDF stuff cuz conspiracies lead to blah blah blah and then did a quick look on ecosia. Jesus Christ my people suck sometimes...
Yes, it's a shame, but tbf Israelis really freaked out after Oct 7 and now see threats everywhere.
There was a strong supporting reaction at first, but then the Israelis started saying some dark things and some people are starting to feel an awkward vibe.
Hamas needs to be rooted out, it's just a lot of Israelis seem to see all gazans as hamas now, which is problematic, and lash out with "antisemitism!" When people try to deescalate.

fixed it for you
Yeah, October 7th was pretty fucked up, but it's not like Israelis aren't under constant threat. What sucks is that kind of fear leads to suspicion and a strange flavor of xenophobia I've never really seen from other countries...
But I can tell you that, in a way, Israelis didn't necessarily see Gazans as Hamas before, but they sure as fuck saw them as an other and a threat. I swear, the things I heard from even my most liberal Israeli family members was shocking. "They just breed like rabbits," "they want to be in power so they can oppress us," "they can't hold their own elections because they'll just vote for terrorists." And then the most religious citizens of their country live part of the year in NYC, have so many kids that they forget to vaccinate them, and vote for Trump and Netanyahu in two separate elections.
The IDF will likely try to claim that they thought she was a sniper, but if that were true they wouldn't be standing around in the middle of the street before they shot.
You can read the words of the event, but like you said watching their behavior says everything. It's like US police claiming they feared for their life. They casually stand there, like any other day at work, and attempt to murder a young girl, and probably joked about it after.
The shot sounded very quiet it cannot be a rifle shot. Is it a traumatic weapon? I did not know that those are used.
That sounded like 5.56, which sounds more like a pop than 7.62 (brat) or .303 (boong).
You are clearly here solely to defend the IDF, this is a wasted effort in this space. Why do you want to put so much effort into excusing a murderous apartheid state?
Assuming too much?
