Here’s half a dozen news sources reporting on this nightmarish incident, including the New York Times and Haaretz:

You were saying?

Then use credible sources to begin with instead of your absurd Twitter propaganda accounts.

That's nothing. Apparently Israelis have tours and watching parties where they celebrate the bombings and master of civilians in Gaza and Lebanon

No, "Israelis" do not do this, you propaganda-pusher. A few extremist Israelis - who have been sanctioned by Israel, the US, and other nations - did this but Israelis as a whole do not.

The "boat tour" itself was, and is not, a regular commercial exercise endorsed by Israel as implied by some social media posts.
The people in the video are extremists and not representative of Israel as a whole.

This conference and the views of extremists who participated in it are factual and have been covered by numerous reputable media outlets. It is important to note, however, that while the footage appears to be genuine, the "boat tour" itself was not a regular commercial exercise as implied by some social media posts, nor was it something that would be available to people outside these extremist movements.

Finally, it is important to correct the notion, implied by viral posts, that the actions or views of the most-extreme elements of the Israeli settler movement represent Israel as a whole. They do not. Weiss' actions are considered criminal in Israel, and she and her organization have been sanctioned by the United States and several other nations since April 2024.

But this doesn't bother you a bit:

Why in the hell would ANY reaction from Palestinians at this point be anything but loathing ppl who've carved Stars of Davids into their FACES and raped them and slaughtered them and destroyed their lives for 80 years? Who in the hell do you think you are expecting ppl long before your precious Oct 7, having experienced countless Oct 7s --only with actual systematic rapes and slaughtering of countless babies-- to give a sh8t about the feelings of the ppl who did it?

You expect pp whose only experience w/ the Jewish ppl for the past 80y to be hell on earth, to give a sh*t what you think? Maybe talk to your own about doing things like THIS. It tends to leave a bad impression of Judaism because it isn't on Palestinians to separate the two on your behalf:

You idiot - this is a historic battle cry dating back to the 628 CE expulsion of Jews from Arabia. Palestinians learned to hate Jews long ago, that's all they know. Spare us your histrionics and constant one-sided BS.

"In Islamic tradition, the chant “Khaybar Khaybar, ya yahud, Jaish Muhammad, sa yahud,” which means, “Jews, remember Khaybar, the army of Muhammad is returning,” is used as a battle cry when attacking Jews or Israelis."

^^ Here's the unhinged poster who claims she "invites people to debate her" - one of the funniest lines I think I've ever read. Lady, you don't invite debate, you invite chaos, screaming, obscenities, lies, hysteria, and disgusting hyperbole. Your idea of debate is shouting down anyone you disagree with. You are an utter joke.

They love to see other people die to feel safe. Except it isn’t safety, it is sadism

I'm the poster from yesterday who explained in a nuanced (thank you, PP, for acknowledging this!) way why I, as an American Jew, support Israel. It may shock you to learn that I am nauseated by the actions of the violent settlers and also by Ben-Gvir and his minions just as I am by the January 6th thugs and Trump. That doesn't negate my attachment to Israel and its people. Do you demand of the Chinese people on this site that they renounce China due to its treatment of the Uyghurs? How about Russian posters--are they allowed to have warm feelings toward their homeland and their relatives or must they sever ties because of Putin? How about the Syrians here? Hungarians? You see how silly that all sounds?

Anyway, you can keep at each other's throats if you like. I'll be finishing my application for a volunteer program in the Holy Land later this year and enjoying a good Mary Gaitskill novel and some chocolate. Peace to everyone.

DP. Funny, I just wrote something similar. It is funny, isn't it, how other countries receive a completely different reaction when they commit atrocities. The hypocrisy is so blatant it's palpable.

Also, are you admitting that Israel engages in genocide but we just shouldn’t worry about it because all countries do bad stuff???

Nope. I'm asking you a very simple question which you continue to dance around. Why do you obsessively call out Israeli atrocities but ignore China and Syria's atrocities?

WE CALL OUT ISRAEL BECAUSE WE ARE PAYING FOR ISRAEL WITH OUR TAX MONEY.

Israel’s war crimes are being committed with the full backing and support of MY money! Not acceptable.

This also the other countries are bad. We just aren’t paying for it with money and our military’s lives. Think about that 13 dead soldiers fight Iran. Not acceptable.

Perfectly normal society.

Zionists absolutely left in tatters in this thread by the facts. RIP.

You have no idea. Try being a Chinese American professor these days. The FBI might come knocking on your door. There are trainings that you and your colleagues take about how China is evil. You are denied grant funding because one of your students goes to China and works there after he leaves your lab. You are racially profiled by the government. One is forced every day to acknowledge that some of this is justified (not the FBI shit - everything else) because the CCP is in fact a dangerous govt and we are right to be wary of how they use their diaspora. What do think the climate is like for Iranian students in the US? When we can get to the place where Israel is treated at arms length and people are free to celebrate their connection with the land while US policy holds their govt accountable for crazy stuff, let’s talk.
