🧵I was actually shaking with horror & disbelief when I saw this. It's not just on TikTok anymore, it's now presented proudly on national TV - the public humiliation of Palestinian abductees, kidnapped from Khan Younis, while they were fleeing out of town, trying to find safety.
Civilians bound, blindfolded, paraded by psychopaths in uniforms, for the enjoyment of a sick pseudo-journalistic propagandist, and the whole People of Israel. As you can see in the following clips, these are obviously not Hamas militants, but completely random Palestinian men.
They call the makeshift checkpoint "Nakaz", which roughly translates to "drainage point". They're draining Khan Younis of Palestinians, and arbitrarily kidnap some along the way. And they're doing it all so shamelessly. As a TV "exclusive" for Netanyahu's propaganda channel.
The casual "go inside". Just like that. That "go inside" means torture, starvation, imprisonment, and sometimes death. But he says it like it ain't a thing. "Go inside". Why not. Who cares. Definitely not the world, it seems.
The fear in those poor men's eyes make me feel so helpless. Their lives are in the hands of monsters, and I can't do anything to stop it. It's 7AM here. I couldn't go to sleep after I saw this. Had to at least show it to the world before I rest. Good morning, wake the fuck up.
This aired last night on Channel 14. A "documentary" (more like a snuff film) by Hillel Bitton Rosen, another one of Bibi's propagandists.
Oh forgot to add: translation of the Arabic is based on the Hebrew subtitles, not on the actual Arabic.
"Gaza should be annihilated, including all its inhabitants. Men, women and children"
This genocidal nutjob is Dan Ezra, a so-called right-wing "activist" who spent a lot of 2023 organizing demonstrations in support of Netanyahu's government, and also "counter-protests" against the anti-Netanyahu crowd. That included blocking roads near Kibbutzim, who Netanyahu supporters see as sort of "places where leftists live", allowing only people who "look right-wing" to pass through and attacking people they thought looked like "leftists" (including many elderly people).
These staged protests, mostly organized by hardcore "Bibists" and Likud members, were obviously meant to intimidate people from protesting against the government.
This guy has dozens of thousands of followers on Instagram and Telegram.
After people warned him that posts like his could be used against Israel in The Hague, he posted this:
During 2023 he was interviewed regarding his "protest" by national media channels.

"Blood and limbs and corpses were strewn everywhere, mixed with the flour and spilled oil. Even for the Red Cross team on the site, fresh from the agonies of the Second World War, this was too much. The team described it as "unbelievable horror.""
No, this is not a description from one of the recent atrocities in Gaza, but rather from the original "flour massacre", 75 years ago:
In January 1949 Israel's so-called "War of Independence" was almost over. The artificially-made "Gaza Strip" was already full of refugees expelled from the territory that became known as "Israel".
In the first days of the year, just before the armistice talks between Israel and Egypt began, the newly-founded Israeli air force launched a series of aerial strikes in the towns of Deir al-Balah, Khan Younis and Rafah. Some of those strikes resulted in the first aerial massacres perpetrated by Zionist forces. The worst one was at the main square in Deir al-Balah, where the Israelis bombed a food distribution center, during peak time, killing more than 100 and up to 250 Palestinian refugees who were queuing for their food rations. These people who were just recently expelled from their homes, were now being murdered by the same people who uprooted them.
The excerpt attached here was taken from a book by Palestinian historian Salman Abu-Sitta, back then an infant refugee, who lost his uncle in the massacre.
For some reason, even though this is one of the largest massacres in the 1947-49 war, it is never talked about, and it's not easy to find info about it. If anyone has good sources of information regarding the incident(s), please share. Also, if you have access to the book about the massacre that came out a few years ago, "نزيف دير البلح - صيف ١٩٤٨", please let me know!
And here's an excerpt from an article by @AlnaouqA
(I originally posted this thread in December, in Hebrew. I thought it deserves an English version)
🧵1/12
Mujahid Nimr al-Faroukh, 31 years old from the city of Sa'ir near Hebron, used to work as a construction worker in Sderot. On October 7 he was besieged in Sderot along with the residents of the city. On October 8 at 13:25 he spoke to his family on the phone, said he was at the central station in Sderot, trying to get out of the city, and fearfully told of a large presence of residents and police around him.
2/12
The call was disconnected, and five minutes later the family called Mujahid again, but this time they were answered by an Israeli, who told them that their son had been killed.
From that moment on, communication with Mujahid was severed. The family turned to the Red Cross, B'Tselem organization and other human rights organizations, but due to the state of war and the chaos that prevailed in those days in Israel, they were unable to receive assistance from anyone.
3/12
After 3 weeks of desperate search attempts, the family received a call from the police, who asked them to come to the Lod (al-Lydd) station, to check if their son was among the bodies of unidentified Palestinian workers. Mujahid was unrecognizable, following severe abuse of his body. The family members left a DNA sample, and the next day they received confirmation that their son was no longer alive.
