      Most Israelis aren’t religious. The bigger problem is nationalism and paranoia. That’s unsurprising in a colonialist garrison state. Move into someone’s country, take their land, dispossess them, then whine about how you’re surrounded by enemies.

              Wow reading a page to see a list of companies that support an active genocide is too much to ask?

              You can reject all cookies and still see everything. You really have to invent unpassable obstacles just to find an excuse to not do the bare minimum?

              We’re not asking you to donate, we’re not asking you to fight, we’re simply asking you to avoid giving your money to corporations that profit off the genocide industry, and you’ll help your own country and give your children a chance at a better future by not supporting corporations with extremely oppressive practices.

              The BDS list is the bare minimum you can do, you can also try to be conscious in how you spend your money outside of that by checking each product you consume individually. This app makes it easy to scan and a barcode and instantly know if the product is made by a company that directly opposes your principals: https://www.boycat.io/

    “The victim was hospitalised with injuries including broken ribs, a punctured lung and rectal damage, according to the indictment, and Tomer-Yerushalmi launched an investigation.”

    Other accounts of rape:

    "The New York Times documented an allegation of rape from a senior nurse who said two soldiers lifted him up and pressed his rectum against a metal stick fixed to the ground.

    A report by the UN’s Palestinian relief agency Unrwa into abuse allegations at Sde Teiman provided a similar account of a detainee forced to “sit on something like a hot metal stick”, who said another detainee died after anal rape with an “electric stick”."

    “The incident in Sde Teiman caused immense damage to the image of the state of Israel and the IDF [Israel Defense Forces],” the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, said in a statement on Sunday. “This is perhaps the most severe public relations attack that the state of Israel has experienced since its establishment.”

    Telling the truth was the “most severe public relations attack that the state of Israel has experienced since its establishment”.
    Makes ya wonder huh?

    They’re calling these soldiers who anally raped a prisoner “heroes”. Fucking disgusting scumbags.

      Her job on every other day, is to provide fig leaf legal cover for IDF crimes on and off the battlefield. If Israel ‘investigates’ it own soldier’s conduct, it closes off international oversight and legal intervention. Doesn’t matter that the conviction rate is in the single digits, as long as there is some legal recourse, they can skirt their obligations under international law.

      She leaked the video to further that coverup, not out of some righteous indignation or sense of justice. Otherwise she’d have done a mass dump of internal files to a dead-drop server hosted in Sweden or mailed a stack of documents to The Hague.

      Where domestic legal proceedings fail to address human rights abuses, mechanisms and procedures for individual complaints or communications are available at the regional and international levels to help ensure that international human rights standards are indeed respected, implemented, and enforced at the local level.
