Itamar Ben Gvir, Israel’s far-right national security minister, has called for the execution of Palestinian prisoners to ease overcrowding in the country’s jails.
Writing on social media, he welcomed a decision by the Israeli army to build 936 additional prison places for “security prisoners”. “The additional construction will allow the prison service to take in more terrorists, and will bring a partial solution to the prison crisis that exists in the Shabak,” he said, referring to the Israeli Prison Service.
“The death penalty for terrorists is the right solution to the incarceration problem, until then - glad that the government approved the proposal I brought.”
During a visit by members of the Public Defender’s Office, squalid conditions were noted, including “intolerable overcrowding”, with less than three square metres of space per person, poor sanitary conditions, pest issues, inadequate ventilation, and a lack of basic necessities for the incarcerated.
Israel is going to build camps to concentrate their prisoners.
Western Rulers: Listen, just cause they are building camps and moving Palestinians into them in large quantities just highlights the danger that the poor Israelis are in!
Israel: Starts ordering suspiciously larges quantities of a certain pesticide
Western Rulers: Obviously they are just trying to treat their fields, absolutely nothing wrong here. Nothing to see here, No Criticisms, we Veto the right to criticize or cover this further!
fucking ghoul
Such little respect for human life is disgusting. Killing in the name of overcrowding is not valid reason to murder.
The war made possible for us the solution of a whole series of problems that could never have been solved in normal times.
- Joseph Goebbels
I wonder if they will concentrate all of the prisoners in one spot before they implement Ben’s solution
With so many prisoners it’s gotta be hard to process all of those death penalties. I wonder if there is a fast and efficient way to apply the death penalty. Maybe they can do it in groups
We’ve started going full death camp yet people still don’t believe that there’s a genocide. There are no words to describe just how truly disgusting that is.
He even used the word solution. They don’t even give a fuck anymore
“But it’s not their final solution, so it’s ok.”
It’s just an intermediate solution. Why stop at the genocide of the Palestinians? They don’t like Iran either.
Geez they’re literally talking like nazis, no? Aren’t they actually doing things like the nazis did too? This is all like a sick horrific joke. The jews are now like the nazis were. How oxymoronic can you get.
This ass hat is a complete troll. He’s like Israel’s Lauren Boebert. Both need to go.
Contrary to Boebert Ben Gvir is a convicted terrorist. In fact he has been indicted 53 times and convicted 7 times.
The real problem: Ben Gvir is a critical part of the coalition that keeps Netanyahu in power, meaning his has significant influence over israel law.
Ben Gvir has faced criminal charges of hate speech against Arabs and was known to have a portrait in his living room of Israeli-American mass murderer and Jewish extremist Baruch Goldstein, who massacred 29 Palestinian Muslim worshipers and wounded 125 others in Hebron, in the 1994 Cave of the Patriarchs massacre.
I’m sure I’m late to the party but… clearing throat.
I did Nazi that coming.
Israel (the govt) is acting gross.
But when I compare this genocide to the Holocaust I get called an antisemite
Yes, that comparison is absurd. Don’t do that.
30’000 death, including the terrorists mind you, in more than 6 months means roughly 160 per day. The numbers are hardly going up in the past months.
Ausschwitz, one concentration camp out of many, saw more than 1 million people murdered in about 3 years, about 900 per day.
See that’s where you are wrong. Calling evil by showing how it is similar to another evil isn’t trying to minimize one. Is it just about numbers? Their universities, schools, hospitals, records and cultures are being destroyed as we speak. Children are being starved. So you’re saying this isn’t evil enough? Comparing numbers is Israili propaganda at this point. Never again means never again for anyone.
so when the entire population of gaza strip gets murdered is your argument gonna be “it’s not a holocaust because there were only 2.2 million Palestinians to begin with”
I refuse to believe that a sane, rational person would put forth such a braindead argument in good faith.
(With my apologies to any braindead people and their families/friends for the unflattering use of the adjective.)
Comparing people that get round up and murdered in insane scales with people in a war zone getting notified about bombings and not leaving is the braindead argument to me.
Since your 160/day figure isn’t enough to make the cut, what’s the magic number to push them over the threshold and turn this atrocity into a full-blown crime against humanity? As long as they max out at the Holocaust’s daily average minus one, everything’s peachy? I have no illusions that any of the newly-minted war criminals in the IDF are going to read this and decide to do anything to stop it but an honest, competent observer must see similarities in the barbarism and motives.
If we want to compare it to the Holocaust, then yes, the numbers need to be in the same region. That has nothing to do with the category genocide etc., for obvious reasons. The way people here argue is somewhat in bad faith, hence no need to answer.
What similarities in the motives and barbarism? Who are these 2 comparable?
