😑 What’s wrong with people that they feel the need to harm others? > Khan said he was motivated to provide material support to the Islamic State group in retaliation for Israel’s killing of Palestinians in Gaza. The answer to killing IS NOT more killing.

We're in a new (religious) war right now (not that it changed from the past) so it goes beyond the regular standards of a country vs another country type war. There are elements of generalizing "everything West" but for the most part, terrorist are going to do what terrorist do. The difference with before and now is, Isreal is getting heavily involved than previous times so the terrorist or people that are radicalized get heavily involved than previous years.

Nobody is killing just for a religion. If you still think that’s the case then you have zero understanding of the world. These are wars for influence and resources. America and Israel are trying to steal land and resources and they’re obviously being met with resistance. Acting like there’s a whole separate religious war is idiotic

Oil, Stock market, and resources is the actual reason but the unwritten and marketing tools used to sell it is that the administration is implying is evil dictatorship, religious terrorist, etc. On the surface, it’s about resources but the speeches are different. The Orange clown doesn’t go on saying in public I’m invading to steal but dog whistles about other topics as a moral obligation.

As if Israel hasn't been involved in international terrorism for many decades. Just look at what they did to kill all the people involved in the 1972 Munich Olympic team murders. Nearly all of it was done on foreign soil, making their assassinations international terrorism. Yet, even today, people claim international terrorism is somehow justified because it was *Israeli* international terrorism.

Also with AI slop and modern propaganda, they're not just witnessing something bad in real life or some news article for 30 minutes on the TV, like 8+ hours a day of brain rot, propaganda and misinformation on their phone on both "all" sides of the world. not good. And in the past, you didn't have an orange clown make it about himself and the stock market. There's a lot of anti-America right now when he's painting Isreali's government as some holy peacemaker. it's bonkers.

If you kill the killers then no more killers to kill.

Curious if this will be one of the FBI's yearly attempts to radicalize a mentally ill person and spend a year trying to convince them to do a terror attack. They have quite the habit of it.  https://www.theguardian.com/world/2011/nov/16/fbi-entrapment-fake-terror-plots https://abcnews.com/US/dad-accuses-fbi-setting-son-bomb-plot/story?id=28240751 https://www.businessinsider.com/fbi-is-manufacturing-terrorism-cases-2016-6 https://www.gq.com/story/matthew-llaneza-alleged-terrorist-fbi-snare https://www.cbsnews.com/news/family-fbi-knew-oklahoma-bomb-plot-suspect-is-schizophrenic/ https://www.cincinnati.com/story/news/2017/11/21/terror-convict-mentally-incompetent-entrapped-fbi/887772001/ https://www.nbcmiami.com/news/local/bail-hearing-reset-for-man-in-aventura-jewish-center-bomb-plot/1970518/ https://www.cbsnews.com/colorado/news/castle-rock-teen-mental-health-issues-arrested-accused-trying-join-isis/ https://www.cnn.com/2017/11/29/politics/aby-rayyan-fbi-terror-sting-pizza-man https://theintercept.com/2023/06/15/fbi-undercover-isis-teenager-terrorist/ https://www.hrw.org/news/2014/07/21/us-terrorism-prosecutions-often-illusion https://www.pbssocal.org/shows/democracy-now/clip/fbi-accused-of-turning-mentally-ill-man-into-a-terrorist https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/analysis-opinion/newburgh-four-terrorism-case-releases-show-dire-need-fbi-reforms https://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/bay-aclu-questions-sj-man-arrested-in-bomb-plot/2047296/ https://theintercept.com/2024/01/10/fbi-sting-isis-autistic-teen/ https://theintercept.com/2015/03/16/howthefbicreatedaterrorist/ https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2014/07/ersatz-terrorism-cases-target-poor-mentally-ill-109191/

Hot take but if you can be convinced over the internet to commit a mass casualty event you were already not a good person and you already had a hatred for the people you wanted to attack and should be in jail anyway. Even if all of these attacks people claim are false flags were caused by manipulation, it still shows that there’s rampant hatred/desire for genocide in society. If someone attacks Jewish people for being Jewish, it doesn’t really matter whether someone encouraged them to do that, it still shows they wanted to kill Jews otherwise they couldn’t have been convinced to do it. Same goes for any other victims of hate crimes. If I encourage a guy who hates Russians to attack Russians, that guy is still an evil guy who hates Russians.

If you encourage someone to do an attack, wouldn't you also be complicit?

Yes but it doesn’t mean the person who did it isn’t a racist if they committed a hate crime. That’s why the people using “false flag” every time something bad happens to suggest there is no issue with antisemitic violence are stupid. It is still antisemetic violence. It still shows Jews are currently unsafe in the west. It still makes the case for having a Jewish country. If there are lots of people who can be easily convinced to kill me in my country then maybe I’m not safe in my country.

Being a racist is not a hate crime in itself. I don't think the person that provided the list implied this were "false flags". They were pointing out to some of the social engineering practices that may play a role in these attacks.

"Social engineering" f*** off with that. Everyone is trying to manipulate everyone all the time - and everyone is responsible for their own shit despite that. Respecting peoples shared humanity means holding them to our shared standards; expecting less is putting them in the same category as children, the mentally deficient, or animals. Which is pretty f****** racist IMO.

I didn't say anything about how the attacker should be prosecuted though. Did I? I personally think we tend to over estimate that people put too much value in free will. However, I am not a legal expert so I don't like to have an opinion regarding this.

The issue is this person taking frustrations with Israel out on Jewish Americans. This feeds into Israel’s claim to be the protector of Jewish people worldwide

that’s sad - Zionists don’t plot, they just bomb everyone that lives in that neighborhood

Can you explain why do you mix zionist and just ordinary people expressing their faith?

Why do Zionist mix ordinary people expressing their faith is the question you should be asking. People can stand with Israel, that is their choice but you can’t complain that the world hates you for it. What they are doing is wrong on every level and the “Ordinary” people that follow the faith are being used as shields.
