> But you are not going to find an explicit call to go and murder civilians and the Israeli far right doesn't think that way. This is exactly what happens in the West Bank every single day. Settlers and IDF soldiers will go shoot up schools, murder random passerby, etc., and then the Israeli state will give them more weapons and supplies to do it again the next day.

well on one side you have huge military on other side you have a pile of rocks that used to be a city. so comparing these its does not make israel look better.

These pile of rocks were funded by Qatar and that money could’ve been used to build schools instead of funding Hamas tunnels.

This is nothing new Israel has been doing this for years. It's just that people have started waking up to their lies.

I suspect that this kind of tactic is going to be everywhere in a year or so. Entire fake personalities and organization websites on the Internet created just to push a narrative or to advertise a product, which completely drown out real information. At some point they may be indistinguishable from human-produced work, so the only way to verify if a site is someone's genuine opinion or AI-generated narrative is throu…

Although comments below point out that this has been going on for a long time, I too think it will be geetting infinitely worse in the near future. Everyone will want their own poisoning factory.

One consequence is that one should be extra-wary when asking AI about current, controversial topics.

But another consequence is maybe that there will be a demand for models with an older cutoff, before generalized poisoning and slop?

> Qatar lies

Netanyahu said that "Qatar is not an enemy country". Is he wrong about that? https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2025-08-14/ty-article/.p...

He specified "terrorists", See: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49340403 for actual sources, including in Hebrew (although it was flagged to death for reasons unknown).

That message a reply to YOU, but that didn't stop you from posting the same false info multiple times in this thread.

I mean you can probably find a Ben Gvir quote where he is advocating killing civilians if you looked for it. Just this one instance was a miss.

>do intentionally call for and attack Israeli civilians and the presence of a "military" target is not a factor.

Settlers occupying Palestinian land, especially that land immediately adjacent to Gaza really aren't civilians in the normal sense, more like an armed militia with their families along as human shields. Comparison point I usually see are armed homesteaders in most colonial scenarios.

Edit: Actually I should mention this also applies in the west bank, and golan heights. Not to leave Syrians moved on for Israels "Buffer Zone" finding out they have been settled out of the bargain. They also have a right to return.

I think the time where Palestinians could be reasonably expected to rehome themselves to their land peacefully has long since passed.

Israeli settlers are just as welcome as always to just get out of the way and permit the resettlement to happen peacably.
