An Iraqi MP is having the most hilarious crash out on his Telegram channel right now at almost 4 AM and how am I supposed to explain that to a non-Iraqi person because this is just...........😂😂😂😂😂
Guy's literally naming and shaming his enemies and threatening them all in the most unhinged way.

It’s stupidly absurd watching people scream “How can Trump embrace Putin like that don’t you know the ICC calls him a war criminal?” And then turn around and embrace Netanyahu, who the ICC calls a war criminal.😐

Those of us committed to actual justice reject both war criminals—as justice mandates.

If Israel wasn't Israel we would already be talking about bombing the shit out of it to stop the genocide and that is a fact.

Yeah I literally couldn't believe my eyes when I saw he cited these resolutions as evidence of Israel being unfairly targeted by the international community!
Like bruh please allow me to introduce you to a little history lesson called "What The International Community Has Done To Iraq".

Before the invasion, there were the starvation 1990s.

Like, maybe if any of the usual mechanisms for Israel accountable were available, states would have used those to resolve the occupation decades ago rather than focusing all of their energies on ineffectual UNGA resolutions that are invariably ignored.

Perhaps if Israel weren't so consistently shielded by the US at the UN Security Council, the UN General Assembly would not feel as compelled to voice their consistent criticism through generally toothless resolutions.

"Teach a lesson" is a tricky, severe phrase.
I'd use "Find meaning" instead.
One of the main reasons I picked my line of work was because I wanted to find meaning.

If her trauma made her believe that "men are deserving of rape" then she didn't hold the opposite value dear prior to her trauma.
I'm eternally suspicious of men & I always assume the worst whenever I have to share a space with them, but I'd never wish harm on an innocent person regardless of gender

"Everything Israel is is because of its trauma"
OR, & hear me out here, it's because Israel is essentially based on the oppression & subjugation of the Palestinian people which makes it an evil force?
Sometimes evil forces are evil because that's what they truly stand for not because of any trauma.
isaacgantwerkmayer.bsky.social
yep. While I do believe that genocide is objectively bad no matter who is doing it to whom, I also think that the idea that everybody should learn the exact same lesson from trauma is stupid.

Everything Israel is is because of its trauma, because of the fear that the Jews will be powerless again.

The Holocaust was not a moral lesson, and sometimes trauma doesn’t make one morally enlightened; it just breaks a person. Moreover, becoming a heavily armed insular state is a lesson one might take from being ignored by the whole world during the Shoah. Not the “right lesson,” maybe, but a lesson.
observer46664.bsky.social
Trauma should not change the core values of a person or what they really stand for.
If it did then that particular person did not hold that value dear to begin with.
Signed, a deeply traumatised woman who doesn't believe that any innocent man should suffer just because my oppressors are men.

A woman who survived being raped, developing a fear of men, then being unsympathetic to male rape survivors, did not learn the wrong lesson from being raped. She’s just traumatized.

Being raped is not a thing which is meant to give a moral lesson. It is a monstrous trauma, not a school assembly

They will say that she was a slut.
They will say that she was a drug addict.
They will say that she was not a virgin.
They will say that she was a deviant woman.
Everyone knows how rotten they are, and everyone who knew her knows who she really was.
God will judge us all. He will avenge her.

If any other state in the world were doing to any people what Israel is currently doing to the Palestinian people, it would have been sanctioned into oblivion by the international community or even levelled to the ground. The fact that Israel is getting away with it, that’s the real problem!

It's such a terrible story. We are beyond heartbroken.

Is there any point in rebellion? Or are we fighting a lost cause and there is no fixing this country?

But the American regime is already close friends with murderous genocidal foreign regimes. Why make Putin the exception?

Standing and waiting like a pet poodle for a murderous foreign dictator who kills America’s friends and allies, trying to suck up to him by rolling out a show of the armed forces that mostly exist to fight that very dictator.

America is finally seeing what we are seeing whenever the American regime sucks up to Israel.
Quite a sight, innit?

You belong here! But your point is well made. People leaving X for good reason (it’s filled with Nazis and slop) doesn’t stop it being the main platform for communication in Arabic at least. If I want news from Syria, for example, I end up there.
