The baking babies part was made up too.
I’m not sure about the beheading of adults and I know for a fact that many of the rape claims were made up. (I’m sure some were real though)
I mean this as sincerely as I can....
I was fooled by the Iraq war. I completely believed the propaganda. When something like that happens you have two choices...You can say, “I’m not getting fooled again.” and view every piece of propaganda with a critical eye. Or you can blame it on “the media”, not take any responsibility and then consume the corporate news exactly the same way you did before.
I choose option #1.
After Trump, COVID, 2020, Jan 6, Ukraine, climate alarmism, etc...I truly don’t know how any conservative can say, “Sure, they lied about all of that but I am confident that everything they say about Israel is completely true.”
At the end of the day the things we know for sure are that a bunch of 75 IQ savages acted like 75 IQ savages and in response, one of the strongest and most effective militaries in the world (with our funding) have killed over 10,000 civilians (half of them children).
It is one of the worst genocides in the past 80 years.
One day you understand it. But probably like Iraq, you will quickly forget our mistake and eagerly lap up the next bowl of propaganda that they feed you.
Hamas should have thought about that, but they hide behind thier own people like the cowards that they are.
I mean this as sincerely as I can-
debating degrees of barbarism when you fully admit the gravity of what took place is a fool’s folly.
Were you fooled by the Food for Oil Programme was not corrupt and the only three nations on earth voting against the war were making billions of dollars from it unlawfully? Were you fooled into Saddam not constantly violating UN sanctions over four different POTUS administrations? Prob not, just fooled over WMD as the heinous atrocities of the Hussein regime and the corrupted UN programs are now matters of public record.
I choose option #3-not being an apologist monkey for heinous barbarism.
