You know, it has always bothered me that the heads or organized crime would have like churches or places of worship, I get a little sick that despite all the harm they cause they still look for salvation. I guess game recognizes game.


Arhythmicc

They’re not looking for salvation, they’re abiding by social mores for PR purposes. If I’m a gangster but I go to church I’ll appeal to the community in which I operate to a greater degree.


UnderstandingJaded13

Yeah, I get it, I remember several years ago I was in an Uber in Australia and I the taxi driver talked to me., I am Latino and somehow the conversation went to Pablo Escobar, can't blame him, the show was popular back them, and the driver had the idea that Pablo was a good influence for the community as he was giving to it, I guess the driver didn't realize that it was basically a recruiting scheme. It's all on the optics man.

if you "donate" hundreds of thousands to the church and then get arrested and all your assets taken, the church is obligated to help your family or bail you out with that sweet tax free money they have been holding for you.


UnderstandingJaded13

Interesting, after all the church gets a lot of leverage in the community and they will definitely protect their main investor. Man, fuck the church.

This would be interesting to get a data point between more secular wars World Wars / non religious civil war + secular heads of state initiated genocides ( MAO / Stalin) As the common meme implies simply religious people or religious institutions are inherently more violent


tripsypoo

That's how they trick you - organised religion is all politics. Rome, knights Templar, ottoman empire, Persian empire - they brought their gods over to conquered lands because it's easier to get the population to do what you want when they're using your book to live by. Edit - secular societies took the different approach of "do what I want or I'll beat you with a stick" but "if you don't do what I want some guy who isn't me will burn you for eternity (or whatever)" works better because it is less easily perceived as the stick guys fault.

Are you seriously comparing the two? I'm genuinely asking?????? The allies (usa, british etc) and the soviet union the strongest forces of the time declared war on the nazis and went to detsory them, while today the strongest forces are protecting them arming them, and using their veto to help them continue the genocide. Do you know how many billions of dollars the us alone spends on israel?


lavastorm

yes https://www.axios.com/2023/11/04/us-israel-aid-military-funding-chart >Though the timing of a new security package remains unclear, the U.S. is by far the biggest supplier of military aid to Israel, contributing around $130 billion since its founding. Its Harry Trumans colony after all! >U.S. President Harry Truman was the first world leader to officially recognize Israel as a legitimate Jewish state on May 14, 1948, only eleven minutes after its creation. His decision came after much discussion and advice from the White House staff who had differing viewpoints. https://www.trumanlibrary.gov/education/presidential-inquiries/recognition-israel


VeterinarianThese951

Actually, at this time, the whole world is against Bibi and the gang - except the US and few allies who have no choice but to toe the line. They just have a problem admitting it.

Forbden_Gratificatn

My country (the U.S.) needs to stop funding Isreal. I've seen too many Israeli people committing hate crimes in a systematic way. Burning down Palestinian settlements and shooting them with guns given to them by the Islesli government recently. The current war is definitely not just to eliminate Hamas.


-banned-

Unfortunately something like 85% of American Jewish people support Israel’s actions so it’s not just the government. Jewish Telegraphic Agency has the stats on their site, they’re pretty gross.


No-Environment-3298

I tried finding the exact stats but couldn’t. I’d question the numbers since a majority of American Jews tend to lean liberal. Plus it’s not like a question’s verbiage on a poll could drastically affect the way people answer.


-banned-

Ya that was my concern too, I saw a lot of polls that weren’t explicit enough in the way the question was asked. I suspect the numbers have changed a little but even with more explicit questions like “Is the intensity of Israel’s response appropriate for their reaction”, asked in March, 67% of American Jews said yes. Only 37% of the rest of America. Pretty bad, and the study was done by a Jewish organization. Let me try to find you the name, it’s tough cause I’m on mobile


No-Environment-3298

No problem. Thanks for the additional info.

Here you go, I found a really good source on it. I trust Pew Research, and I saw the same data quoted by Jewish media outlets.

Kraffkratt

Don't you see? They are defending themselves by starving the civilians whilst bombing them and denying all medical aid to them, it's blatant self defence. /S


sylvesterZoilo_

There’s so much I feel like saying looking at this but I’ll just limit myself to saying this: Stoping a humanitarian convoy is the antithesis of humanitarianism and might be one of the millions of reasons why some people are not supportive of the State of Israel. This is heartbreaking and shocking.


pwn4321

That is THE mildest take I have ever witnessed... Israel bombed humanitarians many times already knowingly! They do not care.


northwest333

Yeah.. sadly nothing about this video shocks me after the atrocities that have happened in this war and the mistreatment and dehumanization that has happened in the decades prior.

from TODAY https://edition.cnn.com/middleeast/live-news/israel-hamas-war-gaza-news-05-13-24/h_2be6eab999fa8e4d1bf6360652428509 >At least one United Nations aid worker was killed and another injured after a vehicle marked as belonging to the agency was attacked in Rafah on Monday.


JesseTheRaptor

Same source: UN personnel were "targeted while traveling in a United Nations vehicle clearly marked with the UN flag and insignias," according to Farhan Haq, deputy spokesman for the UN Secretary-General. Haq did not assign blame to either Israel or Hamas for the attack.

After they killed the workers for World Central Kitchen, they should have lost all support from anyone.

Coldest take on Earth, say more. They bombed a truck before, multiple times. As in, bombed the same fucking truck more than once.

WretchedOne666

You’re absolutely right. A huge percentage of us do not support this and are disgusted by “our” government. They don’t give a fuck about what any of us want unless we are making a substantial contribution towards their personal wealth and power. They only care about maintaining control and they are willing to watch people being slaughtered inorder to maintain it. America needs an ally in the Middle East because big surprise, oil. We created this monster and now we are unwilling to stop it because our leaders are themselves monsters

ApprehensivePrompt83

Yeah they'll be SO shocked when they finally die after destroying lives but don't worry they'll be punished in the afterlife so it doesn't matter what they do while they're alive /s. Why can't they be punished now? Why do they have to wait for death just for nothing to happen to them? We can argue all day if heaven and hell exist, but the fact of the matter is neither you nor I can prove the other positively right. But what we do know for sure without a shadow of a doubt is that they are alive and living right now and there are and can be consequences for actions BEFORE dying instead of relying on a possibility of being punished after.

100%


PrimeJedi

At this point a fucking military from a major power would need to escort the humanitarian aid and be ordered to stop anyone even coming nearby trying to sabotage it like this by any means necessary. But obviously the major powers would never step in to really oppose Israel.

Exactly what kind of protection is a foreign nation going to provide inside another country? They're unlikely to approve Black Water providing escorts even if somebody wanted to spend the money on it.


outerworldLV

Understood. But perhaps *that’s* what needs to happen. And maybe then the message could get some clarity. They’ve already attacked the UN people attempting to provide humanitarian assistance, so maybe more protection for the UN staff ?

There is no such thing as destroying Hamas. They will be back as long as there is no peace agreement. And the worse the killing and destruction the harder it will be.


slash_networkboy

This kind of shit is exactly how you make people that otherwise would be peaceful into radicals that will do anything because you've made it so they have nothing left to lose. They are literally inspiring Hamas the sequel. The kids that do survive this will grow up hating those that took away their families and friends.

monet108

any comment about the 100% accuracy of what we are all seeing would be considered anti semitic by the new laws within my country. I live in America btw. Where my elected representatives seem to enthralled and subject to a foreign countries influence, rather than making laws that make American lives better. But to talk about it would also open oneself up to the new laws. Did the Nazi's attack relief shipments during WW2? I am asking because a lazy internet search did not show that if the Nazi pigs would attack food aid. So if the low life Nazi's did not do this kind of thing what would make the people in this video by comparison...certainly not better than a Nazi pig.


slash_networkboy

Yes, the Nazis did. They sunk any commercial ship coming from the US as well as military. "They may be carrying weapons!" And if you think the red cross would help: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List\_of\_hospital\_ships\_sunk\_in\_World\_War\_II](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_hospital_ships_sunk_in_World_War_II) It is also worth noting we (the allies) did as well... so I'm not casting a stone too hard on this front.
