Killing paramedics in a clearly marked ambulance is about as textbook “war crime” as it gets. At this point the bare minimum is independent international investigations, not just more carefully worded press releases.

I am from Lebanon and I can tell you they haven’t even spared international journalists or the UN.

Killing journalists is one of their favorite past times. They hold the record for most journalists killed by a massive margin.

They kill journalists and block the rest from covering the events.. its very clear why.

Worse, they kill children and post the evidence on social media for the masses to see without a care in the world.

Indeed. Shot at a Unifil mission and rammed a Unifil car with a tank, both cases on Italian soldiers there on the UN mission.

whats the common sentiment of the population towards israel?
17
confringos Apr 16, 2026 +104
We are tired of endless wars, and most of the population was and is against Hezballah poking the monsters down south. We want an end to the current war, and there is a considerable amount of the population that does not mind a peace agreement, but definitely NOT normalization. Israel is not making any of the above easier however. Last week, when Trump and Iran announced their ceasefire, Israel killed more than 300 Lebanese civilians in one day.

Israel said one of those paramedics has a second cousin once removed who said hello to a suspected Hezbollah member back in 2006 so it’s justified.

At least they didn’t [bury the ambulance](https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cy0xp969n69o) in a mass grave to hide the evidence this time. How generous.

When all news organizations are owned by Israel friendly billionaires, we will get less and less of this news. Controlling TikTok is more about controlling negative press and "Wrong think" Calling Israel Nazi Germany 2.0 is an example of "Wrong think" that will likely be a punishable crime in the next 5 years. We're going to be living in a mix of Minority Report and V for Vendetta. Complete and utter control and any dissent is met with immediate "relocation".

"There are no innocent children" If everyone who's not an Israeli citizen is a legitimate target, then there's no limits to what you can justify.

Is mortar bombarding civilians not good guy behaviour? >Rows and blocks of houses were blown up. Abd al-Ghani Nasir, who worked for the British military in Jaffa, recalls that the attack on Jaffa consisted of artillery shells aimed at crowds in places like the central market. Bombing would start and then cease until civilians ran to the site frantically looking for friends and family; then bombing would recommence more intensely with the aim, Nasir said, "to inflict the maximum killing that they could." The Zionist record corroborates the indiscriminate slaughter of civilians that the Palestinians recall, as well as the intent to remove the Arab population. One of the objectives of the mortar barrage, according to the instructions of the IZL commanding officer, Amihai Paglin, was "to cause chaos among the civilian population in order to create a mass flight." (Paglin also masterminded the 1946 terror attack on the King David Hotel.) Source: Under the Cover of War: The Zionist Expulsion of the Palestinians by Rosemarie M. Esber 2008

Man, I have a Jewish friend who’s progressive an loves Star Trek and stuff, but is a *die hard* Israel supporter and just puts his head in the sand when faced with their constant atrocities, and lumps criticism of the Israeli government (and violent settlers) with antisemitism. I’d like to show him this link, but I’m afraid I won’t move the needle. How do you reach people like that? It’s almost a MAGA adjacent level of cultish behavior.
43
Theduckisback Apr 16, 2026 +39
That's a really good question, that I dont have the answer to. He may need to hear it from other jews, since he's closed off to non Jewish opinions. https://www.jewishvoiceforpeace.org/nobombs/?sourceid=1003452&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=21772873613&gbraid=0AAAAAqXRb9r91mfdWIOYbkJgn6RQg8q-O&gclid=Cj0KCQjwkYLPBhC3ARIsAIyHi3SZ2Rn20-CY271_mq1PzXi9ooUvGCjeiIMj_tvYPasIwMZmV2CodXgaAvcsEALw_wcB I would also encourage him to translate Hebrew language media and knesset debates. Because they don't even pretend to give a f*** about human rights, they're very explicit about what they think should happen to muslims, Christians, and anyone who opposes them.

Why you friends with a genocide/war crime supporter? You can try convincing him but you know it’s not gonna work. So end the friendship and tell him why.

a_lonely_trash_bag Apr 16, 2026 +15
News flash: If he fully supports what Israel is doing in Palestine, he's not progressive. Continuing to be friends with him shows him that this isn't *that* big of an issue for you.

The concept of war crimes vs. terrorism is a propaganda control tactic that benefits larger powers. We pretend there are rules, knowing that the larger force will never face consequences, and at the same time hold smaller insurgent forces to expectations of propriety. This shit is why we have terrorism. Either there are rules with global consequences or there are none.

Why would I (a politician) sanction them when Israel has made me rich through AIPAC? Why would the news organizations, owned by Israeli friendly billionaires report actual news, rather than a controlled narrative? They want us fighting each other, not the people pulling the strings.

A war crime, not an isolated war crime but a deliberate and prolonged pattern of behaviour that must have consequences. Beyond boycotting Israel all governments should impose sanctions and deny all aid, trade and diplomatic assistance.

Israelis are temu Viltrumites. Just cruelty for cruelty sake. To teach everyone that they only negtiate through with war and genocide. Israel has no end game except to keep killing and somehow keep every one in the region subjugated to Israeli control. A population of 10m trying to stay on top of a population of 500m. This is so fkd up.

This is true. My step dad is Israeli in America, all he cares about are dead Palestinians and dead Lebanese and dead anyone who isn’t Israeli. He’s a f****** monster, he laughs at the idea of children dying, he screams at women in the US who are wearing hijabs, saying they should be dead, to their faces, in public. I have never met a nice Israeli, they only are fueled by hate. It’s f****** gross. And this is a man with several licensed guns who screams at people that he has a gun. I refuse to be around him or go in public with anymore, my mom just makes excuses for him. It’s a f****** joke. End of rant.

I don’t want this to get overlooked in the news cycle because the victims were “just three.” Israel executed three paramedics, because they were paramedics. Because they were trying to help people, heal people, and save lives. Adding this to the long list of war crimes doesn’t feel like enough.

There’s a f****** video of it. Paramedics pulling other paramedics from a blown up ambulance into a new one, then as they get loaded into the new ambulance that one is hit too, now there are 2 more ambulances loading the original paramedics and the second wave into the third.
