🧵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.
In the years following the end of WWII, at least until the 60's, Israeli society treated holocaust survivors like shit. There was this widespread notion that holocaust Jews were weak and humiliated and went "like sheep to slaughter". People used to mock them and call them "soaps"
🧵A thread with a few more disgustingly racist songs by the fans of Beitar Jerusalem. Get your vomit bags ready.
Have you heard the popular (yet very strange) Israeli anti-Muslim chant, "Muhammad is Dead"?
It comes from this song, commonly titled "He's Not a Prophet".
Even though Beitar fans are indeed extremists, most of the lyrics to this one represent a very mainstream and common stereotypical view of Palestinians (or any Arabs), held by many, many Israeli Jews.
--------
He's not a prophet
Just another Arab
He has a beard with fleas
And he eats goat cheese
A construction worker
Also when he's fasting on Ramadan
And he has an orange ID*
Muhammad is a son-of-a-w***e f***t
Muhammad is dead X14
--------
*Orange ID is the old pre-PLO, occupation-issue Palestinian ID.

Here's another Beitar "classic".
It's called "What is Salim Doing Here?" and refers to one of Beitar fans' most hated players of all time, Salim Tuama, a Palestinian (with Israeli citizenship) player who used to play for their arch-enemy team of Hapoel Tel Aviv.
--------
What is Salim doing here? I don't know
What is it anyway, I ask
From all sides I'm hearing
Tuama, here it's the Land of Israel
This is the land of Israel, Tuama
Here it's the state of the Jews
I hate you, Salim Tuama
I hate all Arabs

This one, in a video from a match in Sakhnin in 2013, has the same melody as the previous song, but the only lyrics are:
"Gaza, Gaza is a graveyard"
🧵"After a long time in Gaza, in Khan Younis... it started to get really boring. As an artist, it was natural for me to take a marker and just start drawing on the walls."
In last April Shomrim, "The Center for Media and Democracy", that does so-called investigative journalism, collaborated with popular mainstream news outlet Mako/N12 to do an article about the different graffiti writings and paintings left by Israeli soldiers on the walls of homes in the Gaza Strip.
It wasn't a critical piece, but sort of a feel-good patriotic piece, or as the writer called it, "an authentic glimpse into the state of mind of IDF soldiers active on the front".
The only (very subtle) critique in the article is regarding how little graffiti relates to the hostages, the potential damage to Israel's image in the world, and the use of soldiers as tools for spreading political messages (because as every Israeli "knows" - the army is "above politics").
The most nauseating part was the story of a soldier named Ram, whose quote is at the beginning of this tweet, and his so-called "artwork" (a wall defaced at the home of displaced or murdered Palestinians) is attached to this tweet.
In the following tweets are a few excerpts from the article regarding this artistic soul taking part in a genocide.
"I discovered that even in the most difficult moments you can press mute on everything around you & find refuge, peace, security, joy by doing what I love: my art"
"(the work) is a large mural with smiling clouds, optimistic rainbows... As far as possible from the dusty reality"
"Ram is a painter and tattooist."
And probably considers himself as a liberal, maybe even a leftist. But he never thought twice before taking part in this genocide or vandalizing a home.
🧵Popular Israeli Telegram snuff channel "Terrorists from another angle" comments on yesterday's massacre in Mawasi:
"It isn't easy doing (food) deliveries on such a hot day"
"The virgins of Khan YounAIDS are warming up on the lines, in case the 72 Africans refuse to fuck the rotten/unkosher piece of meat, the one-eyed Muhammad who's testicle was cut off"
"What a night of rotten/unkosher meat awaits me
It feels so good
All the boom boom taka boom boom
Khan Younis went up to heaven
They're looking for Muhammad since noon
With the boom boom taka boom boom
Yasoooooooo 💥💥💥"
🧵How normalized is looting among Israelis - a thread
"Everyone brings gifts from abroad but my brother brings the best gifts from Gaza"
An Israeli girl posted a TikTok clip of her with handcuffs, tactical glasses and a Palestine necklace, all looted by her brother in Gaza.
>>>
"My brother brought me a gorgeous glass and a charger'
"Perfume of a Nukhba commander which I broke after three days"
"Who wants an (Islamic) Jihad bandana?"
"My teacher's son brought her a rug and it was a prayer rug 😅"
