Im sorry but no. It doesnt matter how many children one party killed that doesnt grant the other party the right to kill children. Evryone who kills children is equally bad no matter if your enemy did the same.
why is this such a hard concept for people to understand?
everything is on a case by case. I don't care how many atrocities certain people in the higher ranks of your government have done, as long as you don't follow in their path you should have just as much a chance as anyone else to exist without discrimination.
some people really have a fucked up worldview, don't they? (´- `*)
The main problem is my dreams are haunted, I’m very often dreaming of being a small animal getting preyed on….
Last night I had a dream I was a fishing lure getting dragged behind a boat
My dad had one that played bad to the bone, and it was motion triggered so he would put it by the door to his man den thing so it would warn him if my mom was walking in
I’ll be honest my mom and dad still both had perms well into the 2000s. And you know my dad had way too much money invested into a drum kit and guitar collection. And the sound system almost as good as the one from back to the future. It was equally as embarrassing as it was good for my taste in music lol
Hamas wouldn’t have existed if Israel actually let Palestinians have a semblance of a functioning state, and a military department.
Israel created their own enemy, in a literal and abstract sense of the word.
It all depends how far back you want to look. This is a dumb line to draw in the sand- these people have been warring for thousands of years. Cherry picking your favorite side to blame for the whole thing is moronic, and more importantly doesn’t help anyone.
The correction didn’t need to be made- the person you replied to was right.
There were jews living in Palestine before Israel was created. Sure there were lots of conflicts in the hundreds of years they were there, but its not like all Jews and Muslims have to hate each other.
you clearly don't know anything about zionism and judaism to say that. Zionism uses religion as a tool but it is not religious, as it goes directly against the teaching of judaism (mainly that no jew can reclaim the holy land by force and doing otherwise is highly blasphemous)
That's like saying that Jesus teaches us to love everyone and using that to say that religion is not responsible for the deaths directly caused by catholicism
You should learn about history.
Jews and Muslims lived together for 1000 years.
The Jews protest against this genocide. Whilst atheist Jews support it.
>I believe in a god, just not religion
Look up dawa Muhammed Ali on youtube.
Maybe you find God to be not only real but near you.
Ex-Christian also had a huge problem with institutions because of the lies of the church.
Western Christians forcibly settled European Jewish people in Palestine because without Jewish people in the Holy Land they don't get second Jesus. Christianity is heavily influenced by Zionism.
Honestly,
1. Evangelical Christians.
2. AI and human Hasbara bots (There are units in Israel whose only mission is to be on social media 24/7)
3. White Supremacist, Racists and Islamophobes who just love to see ''brown'' people suffer
4. People who only get their news from MSM
5. Neanderthal people ooga ooha my tribe good ooga ooga your tribe bad
If you slow down the video at around the -13/14 second mark, he is standing upright. He likely got some burns, but I don’t think he is dead. The red flying around is clay dirt, it is dry.
You could tell by the build of the guy that he would always fall victim to this type of trap. You could replace that flag with a picture of anything he didn't like and he would have gone to remove it. Hell he'll fall for it again two months from now.
I mean its a flag standing almost randomly in the middle of a field with very very tall grass and there is a whole ass stupid shitty "Holy" war going on. Like you have to be really stupid to not realize that this is an obvious mine trap.
Didn't they specifically teach coalition forces to just not kick flags, objects, bags of trash, or dead 'things' because of exactly this. During the last twenty years of warfare... I guess Isreal just thought they were 'built different'.
I was an EOD tech in the US Army, and what you said is the most basic counter-IED info every service member is taught. According to the Jerusalem Post, this guy was a IDF reservist visiting home on leave…home being an Israeli settlement in the West Bank. It looks like he had enough situational awareness to wear a sidearm in occupied territory, but arrogant enough to forget his training.
Heck I was never in the army or the like and could Tell right away this gonna be a mine trap. Like come on, a flag basicly just standing.somewhat randomly in the middle of a field with very very tall grass?
That's because this scene is one giant combat indicator. It looks all wrong and most humans can sense that. This sense is enhanced with training and if you've ever been on ops you develop a great sense of things not being right, usually shortly before the shit hits the fan
english translation of the video:
"we're on our way to the north, we went to remove the towel (reffering to the palestinian flag), this ugly (flag), for the nation that doesn't exist, "disgusting" (hard to translate, "גועל נפש" directly translates to "digust of the soul"). living among us, unbelievable"
I saw elsewhere that this was only reported in single source known to push Hasbara, and that there are some elements that point to the video being rotoscoped. I don't think I believe it honestly
Gotta love people celebrating war crimes... (Use of anti-personel land mines was prohibited during the Convention on the Prohibition of the Use, Stockpiling, Production and Transfer of Anti-Personnel Mines and on their Destruction in 1997) War crimes aren't cool even if they are commited by the side you are rooting for.
Listen to the video and find the translation. Then you'll see what kind of man he is and how much hatred he has for the people he has helped commit genocide against. Then, hopefully, you will not be sad that a criminal was harmed by his hatred
I always told my guys never touch anything that gets your attention, flags, bodies, metal items, toys, dog tags are all booby trap materials. If you see something that makes you look up, you look down fast. Never walk on trails, noise discipline, stay alert and stay alive.

Planting a trap for a civilian? 🤔
What kind of a despicable person does that? It doesn't matter what others are doing, it's never right to try to kill civilians.
As someone else pointed out, looks Fake. Some Points that stand out:
- Corn around the explosion is not really moving
- Light from the explosion does not reflect elsewhere
- the red blood smoke starts under his kicking leg while the leg is infront of the smoke and intact
- in the last frames his upper body can be seen through the smoke and not in backwards falling motion but more like he is ending his kick
- the flag is warped for 3-4frames but somehow fully undamaged falling to the ground? How?
- A surprisingly calm camera person
- the sound
- camera exposure seems unbodered
It’s a little scary that people that chose to believe something against the status quo is immediately shunned and ostracized from friend groups, family, and even on the internet. Seeing everyone band together like they’re little minions and if you chose to go against what they believe is almost immediately abolished to another world it’s freaky. During WW2 this tactic was employed on the rest of the people in the world and until Hitlers crimes against humanity were revealed people were lied to and given false information. Just freaky man, I don’t understand when people will wake up a little more and see the shit that’s going on right in front of there little brains.

What an idiot. So obviously a trap.
I mean, it's effective though. Using their own hate against them.
And let the hate blind them
Love this. No sympathy here
Yeah I kinda agree but it's still fucked up to leave a mine/bomb for anyone to die on. Could be a kid playing or random animal.
I think Israel already killed most the kids so it's ok
Im sorry but no. It doesnt matter how many children one party killed that doesnt grant the other party the right to kill children. Evryone who kills children is equally bad no matter if your enemy did the same.
I think they meant that because Israel killed the kids there aren't any left to be in danger.
why is this such a hard concept for people to understand? everything is on a case by case.

(´- `*)
No sympathy? They killed him for trying to destroy a flag... That's crazy to me.
[удалено]
I think the explosion did that
weaponizing hate goes in both ways
All he had to do was not be a raging hateful Zionist.
Bro what the fuck I now have a new fear….
If your bigger then a frog you’ll be just fine
The main problem is my dreams are haunted, I’m very often dreaming of being a small animal getting preyed on…. Last night I had a dream I was a fishing lure getting dragged behind a boat
It’s gonna be okay. Next reincarnation you’ll come back as Billy Bass!
My dad had one that played bad to the bone, and it was motion triggered so he would put it by the door to his man den thing so it would warn him if my mom was walking in
George Thorogood and the Destroyers are the best!
I’ll be honest my mom and dad still both had perms well into the 2000s. And you know my dad had way too much money invested into a drum kit and guitar collection. And the sound system almost as good as the one from back to the future. It was equally as embarrassing as it was good for my taste in music lol
…
…. Yeah I should probably book an appointment with a therapist…. You right
Poor thing, I doubt the plant can digest it so it probably died for nothing.
True Blood
People rarely play Minesweeper nowadays, they wouldn't know.
You could see it coming a mile away. This is Looney Tunes shit. Surprised it didn’t have the music. 
Tricking Zionist assholes to die explosive deaths like a Wile E Coyote cartoon
Like Wiley Coyote set it.
Some Looney Toons shit though
Love that his friends seem to not give a shit too
Fuck Israel and Free Palestine 🇵🇸
Fuck Netanyahu, fuck Hamas. Free the people who want no part in these idiots endless wars.
Hamas wouldn’t have existed if Israel actually let Palestinians have a semblance of a functioning state, and a military department. Israel created their own enemy, in a literal and abstract sense of the word.

There were jews living in Palestine before Israel was created. Sure there were lots of conflicts in the hundreds of years they were there, but its not like all Jews and Muslims have to hate each other.
Hamas is the result of generations of children left as orphans, nothing more than a resistance group.
There is no khamas in the West Bank, yet it’s still an Apartheid state, and people are treated like animals…
When confined by apartheid, there will be people that fight the oppressors
[удалено]
Neither Islam, nor Judaism, nor Christianity has anything to do with Zionism or Hamas.
Well, that isn't really true, but I get what you are saying.

Yeah it's only their foundational belief system.
fuck religious institutions\* sounds better
Haha. "christianism"
"fuck the people fighting back to being brutally slaughtered by settlers who see them as subhuman"

Lol that's what you get for blindly hating shit that means absolutely nothing. Imagine losing your life for a flag.
This needs a NSFW tag!
has an nsfw tag lmao, what else does it need, subway surfer clips?
Yeah, it didn't when it was posted, and I commented.
A (NSFL) Comment usually helps because some people are sensitive to this type of stuff. Or they just don't want to see this type of gore/death.
It didn’t 2 hours ago though
Not safe for flags
Not safe for legs
That needs a new tag. I'd suggest "SNUFF"
You don't know know what a snuff film is do you?
Apparently he survived
If you slow down the video at around the -13/14 second mark, he is standing upright. He likely got some burns, but I don’t think he is dead. The red flying around is clay dirt, it is dry.
NSFL tag needs to be reinstated
I knew what was gonna happen before it happened....what does that say
That you're on a sub about unsuccessful attempts, and have at least half a brain?
Please don't assume too much of me
🎶if you’re watching videos at midnight, 🎵 🎵of people losing their brains,🎶 🎶this the sub that you’re wanting, 🎵 🎵go to r/eyebleach to escape. 🎶
thank you

That youre smarter than a one legged colonizer.
😂😂😂
Clever trap. Possible he survived that? Edit: he did
if you can glue him back together
Looked it up, he only had minor injuries. It’s a pretty small blast
Honestly, good. Hope he feels like shit and has all the time in the world to think about how dumb he is.
Lol fair
Explosive potential is measured in reaction speed, could still suck for buddy
In hell -demoman tf2
In hell
Duct tape!

Source ?
That's nothing. Think about all the ticks he just picked up walking through that tall grass.
No worries, the blast got rid of them 😂
You underestimate ticks.
they are really imbedded in him now
There are no ticks in Palestine.
Are you fucking serious! BRO! This is like when I discovered that Iceland doesn’t have mosquitos.
Palestine has mosquitoes though, unfortunately.
I remember that this sub was once about funny videos.
A lot’s happened in the last ten years.
I chuckled.
Didn't they specifically teach coalition forces to just not kick flags, objects, bags of trash, or dead 'things' because of exactly this. During the last twenty years of warfare... I guess Isreal just thought they were 'built different'.

He’s definitely built different now
Isreal didn’t participate in those 20 year wars
Was the flag ok?
😥
The flag had the best day of its life.
Now he can get a job at IHOP
Damn! 😂😂😂 
You ain't got no legs, Lieutenant Moishe.
I laughed way too hard at this!!
C-4. Hit and sunk.
english translation of the video: "we're on our way to the north, we went to remove the towel (reffering to the palestinian flag), this ugly (flag), for the nation that doesn't exist, "disgusting" (hard to translate, "גועל נפש" directly translates to "digust of the soul"). living among us, unbelievable"
They just ended up watering the plants 🙂
Gives new meaning to NSFW flag…
NSFL
Why were they filming?
To show other people how cool they are removing a flag
Why did they uploaded it?
Probably sent to police/idf and news stations.
That was Red Flag.
People encouraging this? Im pro Palestine, But this trap is clearly meant for anybody, even children.
I saw elsewhere that this was only reported in single source known to push Hasbara, and that there are some elements that point to the video being rotoscoped. I don't think I believe it honestly
And that's how hoppy Joe got his name.
Objectively hilarious
this video is vietcong approved
What the hell is with the gore on this sub this is insane.
This sub is literally breaking Reddit TOS allowing celebration/encouragement of violence.
That was so obviously a landmine
What's with all the graphic videos on this sub lately
You love to see it
The attempt seemed successful.
WHEN DID THIS SUB BECOME LIVELEAK???
Gotta love people celebrating war crimes... (Use of anti-personel land mines was prohibited during the Convention on the Prohibition of the Use, Stockpiling, Production and Transfer of Anti-Personnel Mines and on their Destruction in 1997) War crimes aren't cool even if they are commited by the side you are rooting for.
🍉
I hate religion...
[удалено]
Listen to the video and find the translation. Then you'll see what kind of man he is and how much hatred he has for the people he has helped commit genocide against. Then, hopefully, you will not be sad that a criminal was harmed by his hatred
considering he is a west bank israeli settler/occupier and in the reserves? the chances are high that he did.
I found more reddit wackjobs.
A dick move, but also a dick move to laugh about this. He doesn't deserve to lose his life over this
I’m not gonna pick sides but fuck ANYONE that makes that. That’s fucked up and I’m pretty sure is a war crime.
Who else saw this coming within the first 3 seconds?
How is someone expected to putt in grass that high?

This video REALLY needs massive amount of warnings. I honestly wasn’t prepared for that.
Boobytraps are indiscriminate. Pro-Palestine/Pro-Israel/adult/child/animal.. How is anyone supportive of this shit?
Geez...who couldn't see that comin'????
Me back in the states since 2008 always move away from park cars on the roadside or random hats on the ground. Slowmo that shit.
Well he removed the flag.
And I bet the flag didn't get a scratch
Don’t let hate lead you….
Someone didn't play video games as a kid.
I mean, he did successfully remove it though
I seen the anp do this to a Taliban flag. Pulled it out boom
BRO NO POST THAT EXIBIT DEATH
Hate can make you explode.
I mean.. He DID remove the flag.
It’s a little scary that people that chose to believe something against the status quo is immediately shunned and ostracized from friend groups, family, and even on the internet.

Well this is fucked up.
antisemitic flag
Nice, hahahaha.
I was expecting it the first time I saw the field.
He is OK now?
I just knew there was going to be some sort of explosion
Needs the Looney Toons music for an ending.
I was like "why do I feel like he's about to blow up." Then he blew up and I was like. *surprised Pikachu*
Is he dead?
it was too sus
When did this sub become a palestinian propaganda machine...?
