According to the feature-length documentary Gaza, published online by Al Jazeera’s Investigative Unit on Thursday, Israeli forces routinely shared abuses they committed on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and Facebook after invading the enclave.

The crimes ranged from wanton destruction and looting, to the demolition of entire neighbourhoods and possible unlawful killings.

Al Jazeera said it was able to track down the names, ranks and military units of many of the soldiers after compiling a database of “over two and a half thousand social media accounts, containing photos and videos placed online by Israeli soldiers”.

    Criticizing and condemning Israel is like criticizing and condemning Trump. They just have so little shame and display their crimes so blatantly that it’s just so stupidly simple to call it out.

    If German Nazis were running the government today, you can guarantee we’d be getting the rankest shit out of Auschwitz while some CEO at IBM insists Germany has a right to exist.

      You see, Germany has a right to that land. Germans have always been refused living space by all the great powers.

        They’re calling it Greater Germany, folks. It’s their land. The illegal Poles stole it from them. Very bad. Gotta get them OUT!

        I’m not saying Romani, Slavs, and Czhechs are subhuman folks. But I’ve been hearing a lot of good Teutons saying it. They’re excited about what we’re bring to Eastern Europe. They’re tired of the belly dancing. They’re tired of the stealing. They’re tired of the Communism. What even is a kolache? I hear its made from HOT DOGS!

        Time to for a German for Germans, ladies and gentlemen. I think we all know what that means. Maybe its time we finally find a solution to this problem. I’ve got one. I’m not going to tell it to you, yet. But I assure you its going to Make Europe Great Again.

    Hopefully this will make future war crime prosecutions easier, supposing we live long enough to ever see that day.
