They literally have soldiers raping a POW with a sharp object, got his colon teared up bleeding to death, on camera, they still did nothing about it, "because the victim had left israel", Israelis literally protested in support of the rapists.
A month ago a military unit with disbanded due to it being involved in a high amount of war crimes and literally pogroms in the west bank, like weekly burning of housing and killing civilians in the west bank, none of the soldiers saw any punishment.
A week ago soldiers did a barbeque on a Saturday, they were imprisoned for 20 days, so lighting up a barbeque is literally more frowned upon than lighting innocent Palestinians on fire(also on a Saturday in some cases!)
Even people who are critical of Israel have *no idea* how despicable that culture is as a whole, blaming bibi's government is literally a pro israel mechanism used by politicians to absolve the state as a whole when the people are in full support of the actions, but dislike bibi for the corruption

It's not overly current. Records from the start of the apartheid are being declassified and it seems it's always been that way. Things like >!the time a Lebanese father just walking with some sheep and his young daughter when the IOF shot him. The sheep were stolen and eaten while the daughter was taken to a barracks and raped for days until she killed herself. She was given a shallow grave and the incident was covered up to protect the global view of Israel. Then yesterday a British file from 1948 was being posted where during a ceasefire, a group of IOF took 28 people out of their village (which was outside of the occupied territory) poured petrol on them and burned them all alive.!< There have been many other massacres before and since.
There have been plenty of atrocities to compare with the original nazi's before ever reaching current events. When an occupation's terrorist wing is formed from multiple terrorist organizations, it really sets the tone of how it will operate.

I saw a thing on how cats are viewed in Islam and it's apparently pretty favorable. According to the guy I was watching, cats are so finicky that if a person is inherently liked by cats then it's a sign of them being a good person. So cats are given a nice place in muslim cultures since they can help judge strangers for you and let some people know when they need to shape up.
It's not so hard to believe since that belief appears in many cultures and even common dating advice is to avoid people animals don't like.

We have investigated and decided that the soldier in question h was just smashing a radical Muslim insect that was crawling on the face of the statue. After further investigation we have found that this radical Muslim insect had toes to Hamas and local leadership. As such we have raided and destroyed the homes of fourteen local children who where previously seen training this radical Muslim insect to attack the stature. These children where sumerily executed and their family's arrested and charged with terrorism.
The brave Israeli soldier, who will not be named for safety purposes has been awarded a commmodation for bravery and offered a homestead on land we have recently acquired though he may require help in evicting the previous tenants who we believe may be radicalized Muslim terrorists using the farm as a weapons storage for Hamas.
