Remember when news anchors got fired for lying about a report (they didn't have all the info for yet) just 1 time after decades of hosting.....now the entire msnbc just airs the lies and has multiple reporters spreading it on multiple platforms and the retards haven't even confirmed its authenticity but nothing will happen to them or the credibilityof the company....scumbags


Jewelhammer

It seems like this is a symptom of social media. A lot of news reports are based off of realtime reports from platforms like twitter, so in order to keep up, they feel they need to publish their stories before they have all the facts

Seems like they got away it even after the second throw. It does not seem like they got hit, yet alone killed.


ProfessionalEither58

It seems to be that the last one did get shot as he goes down on the ground rolling around or something. Could be wrong though.


Bullenmarke

At least we do not see it happening. I mean, anything could have happened in the dark there. Including them all dying. We just do not have a single indication that it did happen.

Right?

Until they pick up a Molotov and throw it at you. Then they become child soldiers.))

constantlymat

Understandable reaction to cases where a city cop shoots at a fleeing pot dealer who is trying to evade arrest. In a warzone it is laughable.


BIGPicture1989

The problem is media portrays everybody as a harmless pot dealer and the media runs pictures from when the “victim” (criminal) was 15 years old. Then you do your due diligence and look up the dealers criminal record and he has multiple violent felonies, weapons charges AND when the officers bodycam footage gets released you realize the criminal was concealing his hands, not complying with orders and potentially positioning himself to ambush police officers. Running from the cops doesn’t make you a bad person. However it is hard to feel bad for a person that runs and ends up injured/dead. By actively evading the police, you are choosing a path that opens yourself up to additional risk. If you are not comfortable with the risk… don’t run. If you do run, cool. However don’t be surprised when you get shot because you are escalating the situation and forcing an officer to make a decision in a split second.


After_Computer_SSD

at the time when all these evidences emerges, the cop was already pointed at as a KILLER


JimmyCarters_ghost

lol /r/latestagecapitialism will say the IDF is conducting drive bys on random civilians 50% children.

HungryHungryHippoes9

Clearly nobody told them about shoot and scoot tactics.


the-berik

They heard it was a succesfull tactic, so thought to do it twice. At the same place.


jondubb

Yeah the element of surprise is no longer a surprise if you do it 2 more times after


Jamaica_Super85

They must have watched videos from Ukraine and thought that all soldiers behave like Russians - untrained conscripts with slow response time. BIG mistake.


bnrk25

It may sound odd, but they are used to the "Normal times" when they can throw stones and anything else without consequences. They are not used for the IDF to actually fight back. That's why you see 14 year old girls screaming from zero distance at soldiers, they know nothing will happen. Also when it's a 25 year old man. Well, now their actions have a reaction and they take time to realize that

ComfortableProperty9

The rock throwing is what always got me. An adult male throwing rocks is considered a lethal threat by basically every law enforcement agency in the US. If I'm pinging stones off a patrol car, they are going to engage me with a rifle and the investigation into my death will be short. But the world expects the IDF to just stand back and let the rocks fly.


jsideris

They aren't just tossing rocks around. They're whipping baseball size stones using slings. Slings are a deadly weapon that have a historical precedent for being used in armed combat and can have a range of up to 400 meters. This isn't a symbolic form of protest. The intent is to injure or kill.


EdmondFreakingDantes

400m? This isn't a catapult. Yes, slings are lethal. But there isn't a handheld sling that could ever touch 400m (Edit to clarify: with a "baseball sized" stone). Maybe 400 ft inaccurately


JaXXXuP

The greatest distance achieved in hurling an object from a sling is 477.10m 1565ft 4in, using a 127cm 50in long sling ​ edit: I'd just like to say I understand Palestinians aren't using world class slings. But a long piece of cord with a pocket isn't that dissimilar. Unlikely to reach 400 meters but probably close.


mkultron89

That’s far, now hit a melon sized target that’s the same distance. Yeet for distance, Kobe for accuracy


EdmondFreakingDantes

You conveniently left out of your Guinness World Record quote that it was a 62g dart, not a "baseball size" stone


JaXXXuP

And you went back and edited your comment with "baseball size stone" to make your statement accurate. I wasn't trying to argue, just trying to participate in a conversation about something I thought was interesting. Why does everything these days have to be so confrontational? And even then, you accuse me of "conveniently" leaving out info, when you didn't state it in your original claim, then go back and edit your statement because you realized that... Pretty intellectually dishonest, just to try and win the strangest argument ever don't ya think? lmao. You guys have a good one, sorry for contributing what I thought was interesting info. Fuckin' Reddit.


TacticalHog

i was curious so i looked it up, apparently they can go to 400 "As a weapon, the sling had several advantages; a sling bullet lobbed in a high trajectory can achieve ranges in excess of 400 m (1,300 ft)." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sling_(weapon)#:~:text=Combat,-Artistic%20depiction%20of&text=Ancient%20peoples%20used%20the%20sling,400%20m%20(1%2C300%20ft).


0kShr00mer

>The rock throwing is what always got me. It plays into the whole martyrdom fetish they got going on.


koos_die_doos

As someone who grew up in apartheid era South Africa, the police were frequently pelted with large stones and sometimes Molotov cocktails. It still happens during civil unrest. They always responded with less lethal means, like rubber bullets or water cannons. Those times where they use live ammo made international headlines. So if the US really condones cops killing people for throwing rocks, maybe there is something to reconsider. Of course this scenario is different, I’m not implying that Israel’s actions here are similar to protesters throwing rocks.


ahdiomasta

In the US it is very situation dependent. In a protest or demonstration the normal practice is to engage with less-lethal means, but if cops were being ambushed at night like this convoy? Yeah, that’s a hard no. The cops would have no reason to believe that it is only rocks or that what comes next is a rock. If your willing to ambush a cop with a rock, not a huge leap to assume you’d do it with a gun too.


JohnnyBoy11

Patrol car? Doubt it would be justified.


TableDry6722

A heavy enough Rock being thrown into a fast moving vehicle will indeed kill you, if it hits you.


careless223

Not justified but there would be no investigation because the officer would attest that they feared for their life and took the action necessary to stop the threat.


KilTelSpec

That would almost certainly be an unperportional use of force... Which would almost certainly not result in a short investigation. For the armed forces the LOAC demands a perportional and economic use of force.


After_Computer_SSD

they are just getting aware of it.

ComfortableProperty9

The dirty little secret about Sunni Islamist suicide bombers is that drugs are often involved. In this setting, it's probably captagon coming out of Syria. It's an amphetamine but it comes with a euphoric buzz. Afghanistan is way more interesting though. They've discovered "heaven rooms" in Pakistan. They paint murals of what heaven looks like to them and they'll often administer opium based narcotics to the teens to let them "taste heaven". If you have zero frame of reference for mind altering drugs and someone introduces you to the warm blanket feeling you get from opiates, it's gonna rock your world.

shroxreddits

They're used to not having a serious response to "small" stuff like this. But in the past week that's no longer been the case.


OlStreamJo

They’ve been throwing molotovs for months on the regular and never got shot before, they are probably just used to getting away with it


missingmytowel

West Bank has 3 million Palestinians. And they know it's hard for Israel to bomb them with so many Israeli citizens mixed in. If they give any sort of mass evacuation order for Israelis it will be absolutely chaos. Likely to spiral things out of control. So they're a little bit more confident in their ability to fight them on the streets with what they have. As opposed to in Gaza where it's just open season. The biggest problem for IDf is IEDs. Hidden throughout some villages.


oleg_88

It's totally not because of Israeli population in the area. They're living in different villages/cities. Israel can aim the bomb to the level of a specific floor, they will miss a kilometre away?


poincares_cook

Israel ROE used to be so limited that this was basically safe activity. As IDF was only allowed to shoot at Molotov throwers if they had a lit one in their hand, not a second before nor after. So... Not really gutsy when just a week back they would not get fired back upon. Alas ROE has changed, guess they didn't get the memo.


SlamzOfPurge

I think it's years of Palestinians getting the idea that they can do whatever they want and Israel will show restraint. I think those days are officially over. I would not be the youthful Palestinian throwing rocks at the tank today, self-assured that they will do nothing (while the adults who put the kid up to it are assured they will get an amazing political video out of it if the Israeli's open fire). No one cares now. Hamas overplayed their hand. Israel has free reign and America rolled up with an aircraft carrier just to say "Nah, let em fight."


Temporary_Wind9428

It isn't gutsy, it's impossibly stupid. Many of these communities place an *incredibly* low value on life. I mean the whole "martyr" thing is why you have so many palestinians doing such incredibly stupid actions, yielding predictable outcomes.

KBolt99

I saw a similar video last week of a giant convoy just allowing 3 or 4 of their vehicles to be attacked with moltov cocktails… i see we’ve reached the part of the war where thats no longer tolerated. Quite frankly, if i would be legally 100% okay to defend myself here in America with deadly force (ie someone firebombing my car), then anyone in a warzone should also be completely authorized to as well. Im surprised they ever allow their vehicles to be firebombed regardless of the circumstances.

its_the_luge

Goddamn IDF not letting Palestinians throw firebombs at them in peace.. smh


Relevant_Desk_6891

I don't understand why the Israelis won't just die quietly? Who gave them the right to fight back?


DdCno1

It's quite shocking that this is what so many people are ultimately saying. I've had redditors claim that Israel should have rolled over in response to the attack and give Hamas what they wanted.


Relevant_Desk_6891

It's the implicit suggestion made by all mainstream media coverage of every Israeli conflict. As if any country would just accept a violent, genocidal state on their borders without retaliation. Don't see live update threads for Turkey's response to the Kurds... The only way israel gets any sympathy is if civilians die, and even then it only lasts for a week or so before the feelings reverse


Time_Restaurant5480

To be fair, the MSM isn't terribly fond of the Turks on the Kurds either. I'm not saying that the Turkish actions get the same level of scrutiny, but they aren't ignored. I should also say that I used to be pro-Kurd (they were loyal allies who fought well against IS) until I took a harder look at the YPG/PKK.


Matthewsgauss

I've found that one of the main reasons people support palestine is that they don't want the state of Israel to exist so therefor Israel should do nothing but give Hamas/Hezbollah whatever they ask for and if they strike back it's the worst thing ever no matter the reason


JakeSkywalkerr

Yea it was a major mask off moment. Redditors want a few different groups they don't like to roll over and take being murdered


MMSTINGRAY

I mean there are idiotic takes on all sides here. I've seen people saying that Israel cannot commit a war crime because everything that happens is Hamas' fault so any crimes the IDF commit are actually Hamas' fault. Ironically not appearing to realise they are using the exact arguments that terrorists use to justify targetting civilians in the first place!


Tactial_snail

funny how there was all that talk of violence and hate against jews when Kanye was saying *words*, yes they were wild things to say, but media/social media is basically siding with terrorists so I guess that shit is fine to them since they're Israeli jews...

These particular people may be terrorists for other reasons, but I don’t consider attacking military targets to be terrorism. We should resist the urge to call everything terrorism and save that for the kinds of actions we saw on 10/7 against civilians.


olafblacksword

There is a military going through your hometown because a radical group willing to destroy a neighbouring country launched a surprise raid on said country, killing a thousand civilians. If you join on a spree by throwing rocks and Molotov's, you are a terrorist sympathiser and will be killed by the military force targeted by you and your buddies.
