I thought your laws for example had standards about news vs entertainment, which is why the idiots at Fox keep getting away with misinformation.

There should be a law for owners of media being kept at arm’s length.
Donate to the Hind Rajab Foundation. Many IDF criminals are dual citizens, and the HRF is going after them in their other countries.
That’s why Mitbestimmungsgesetz can be goddamn fucking awesome.
Because we sit at the pinnacle of history, judging all the past generations who came before us. Holy Whig historiography Batman.
It’s all right. When their archaic petro-economy collapses, we’ll send them equalization payments.
A theocracy and an autocracy collaborating to contain a genocidal apartheid ethnostate.
I fucking hate the 2020s.
Also known as “courage”.
This has gone on long enough, but I just have to mention one last thing: non-protestant christianity is not “archaic”. The Orthodox church for example classifies Maria Skobtsova -that woman was a legend- who got killed in WW2 as a martyr.
Have a nice day.
Door’s right open buddy. Nothing stopping you. The UK left, so can you.
What’s genuinely terrifying is that this is not an accusation that they can fight in court, it’s an administrative declaration of a death sentence. Israel has become Judge Dredd.
Good Friday Agreement.
Here is an example from Canada: «‘He paid the ultimate sacrifice’: Hamilton solider remembered in Ottawa». This was a soldier standing sentry, who was shot in the back before even realizing he was a target. He just happened to be there when the gunman decided to go at him with no warning. Now, there are many things broken with Canada, but this turn of phrase is not one of them.
The “martyrs” referenced by the Turkish minister are people working at a defence industry. Arguably, the minister is reasonable to consider them as people engaged in the performance of a national duty. Hence the language of “sacrifice”.
Now, we can of course have a discussion about the meaning of sacrifice, the problems with nationalism and militarism, alienation in modern society, etc. But beyond that, there is nothing extraordinary here, other than using a vocabulary that sounds muslimish.
Are you equally disgusted when officials use the language of “ultimate sacrifice” for cops, firefighters, etc who are “killed in the line of duty”?
Or are you just triggered that the language used here reminds you of Iran, Hezbollah, etc?
The point where we have to split hairs about which exactly crime against humanity a country is perpetrating, that is kind of the point where that country should be the target of externally enforced deradicalization.
Wtf is that supposed to mean? Terrorists kill people and you shouldn’t victim blame.
“Martyrs” I think seems to be the conservative Muslim politician lingo of saying “unjustly killed” or “killed in the line of duty” or “our honourable dead” somesuch. It is not surprising that extremists would use the same language, just like e.g. European far right organization have also used “honourable dead” style terminology, such as in the case of Golden Dawn in Greece for example.
This normalization of assassinations is really going to bite them back. But when it does, they’re going to cry “terrorism”.
In the meantime, it becomes impossible to negotiate anything, since anyone sticking their head out as leadership becomes a target. They are all but guaranteeing the continuation of the war.
Meanwhile, the Conservatives of Bitcoin Trump-Lite PP have no credible climate policy. Climate change costs money. And all the next prime minister has to say is …axe the tax.
So we should also be calling it the Otzma Yehudit-run Ministry of National Security of Israel?
Heh, might as well have some fun with it: The Jewish-Power-run National Security Ministry of Israel. Sounds pretty fucking fascist.
And the Religious-Zionist-run Ministry of Finance of Israel.
They start sounding pretty cooky aren’t they?
