I find your post misplaced and in very bad taste, provided you are not deliberately intending to turn the focus from grave Zionist crimes, including rape, to a totally irrelevant subject of “how gay Israel is”. Who cares how gay anyone is, let alone Israel.
Be respectful and humble in the face of human suffering, especially that of the Palestinians.
This is the Palestine open thread concentrated on developments in a most barbaric conflict with profound consequences for the Palestinian people, the Middle East, peace in the world and the conscience of the human race.

Funny in an obscure sense that there are people who still are all concerned about Nazi atrocities which occurred some 80 years ago. By contemporary I$raeli standards; the Nazis were mere pikers.
When the majority of a given culture actually approves of anal rape by means of a metal rod, a broomstick or any other unnatural forced entry into the most private part of a human’s body…we have to come to the simple conclusion that Talmudist upbringing is utterly toxic and dehumanizes the “Chosen” into a Satanic mob.
Even the Gestapo and the SS never stooped so low as the MAJORITY of those invaders squatting in Occupied Palestine.

‘joy divisions’ don’t ring a bell?
The Einsatzgruppen, and in particular the Waffen SS units, did exactly what the IDF is doing. There is nothing special about this. Also nothing special about the solution. The IDF must be destroyed and its leaders put on trial. Then the backers of it need to be hunted down. That’s what went wrong after WW2. The rottenfella’s and their oligarch friends in the west got away richer after funding the 3rd Reich.

Posted by: LoveDonbass | Aug 11 2024 17:22 utc | 13

Demographic trends suggest that if Occupied Palestine continues to exist for another couple of decades — god forbid — then it will become increasingly less gay. The settlers aren’t particularly LGBT-sympathetic, and the ultra-Orthodox regard it as an abomination. These are the two fastest-reproducing segments of the population. Who knows? We may well see the reintroduction of Levitican punishment.
I doubt that Occupied Palestine will become less self-loathing and psychopathic as time goes by, gay or no gay.

The purposes of Iran’s delayed response is to:
1. Increase its legitimacy by giving Israel more opportunities to show its depravity;
2. Give Iran’s allies time to coordinate their actions;
3. Give Iranian leadership time to define the extent of the response. Contrary to comments made in the Western media, Iran’s new prime minister has no objections to a destructive response. But Prime minister Pezeshkian does support a response over several days as pushed by the IRGC.
My buddy in Tehran tells me the IRGC plan has more support among Iranians… It would involve hundreds of missiles daily over 3-7 days. Most targets would be Mossad and IDF bases of operation. The main economic target still under consideration is the Haifa oil infrastructure because it is easy to hit; it would burn easily for days and would paralyze Israel.

“I think it has been fairly well established by investigators in various disciplines the rape is not about sex or sexuality but about power and humiliation. ”
This is the same tired trope drawn out by feminists since the 70’s. Nobody but you actually believes that nonsense. Anyone who has actually studied crime without bearing some ideological cross can see that rape is often about sex. And yes homosexuals are many times more likely to rape, children and otherwise, because of their mental abnormalities. Humans with normal psychology don’t spend their time fantasizing about sticking things up someones ass.

I think your comment is credible but if Iran does attack on that level it will bring in the US and who knows who else to attack Iran’s bases and the US has the best eyes in the sky, so to speak.
However, Iran will face Israeli attacks not just on military bases but population centers and I doubt the US can stop that. Remember Israel, at this point, does not recognize morality vis a vis non-Jews. A week long missile barrage will bring a fury out of the Zionists that is, therefore, hard to predict. Millions will die and nuclear weapons will be used.
I think Iran is not going to like that possibility. I say they stand down and won’t make a huge attack.

Important to consider geopolitical connections and shifts as providing some context to current events in the Middle East. US is currently in a never before occurring interregnum with a president who may or may not be alive, but at any rate is non compos mentis and the vice president absent campaigning. Are Klain, Blinken, Sullivan, Garland and Mayorkas running the country? Inquiring minds are suggesting that some of these coordinate closely with Zelensky and Netanyahu and their respective war cabinets. Which would suggest the possibility that actions on both fronts are carefully calibrated so as to achieve common goals – thus, when Netanyahu is under high levels of pressure after taking a step too far in the assassination of the principal Hamas negotiator, while violating the sovereignty of a very powerful country, Zelensky concurrently moves forward to Kursk. All designed to continually provoke Russia and/or Iran into the intemperate moves so characteristic of the Axis of the West. Very speculative but the sequences of action appear to be those of a “system” whose nodes reflect carefully coordinated affiliation. As well as carefully shared outlook, which encompasses some unfortunately very large blind spots.

Anal rape by Israelis is deliberately breaking the most fundamental rules of Islam. The reason for doing it maybe that Jews don’t like their own religion’s endless , meaningless rules, and they want Muslims to hate their religion as well.
Allah forgives any forbidden act that is committed by force . Allah doesn’t forgive the Jews following a made-up set of rules that cancels every human being who isn’t a Jew.
Laysa ba’ada kufri dhamb.
Rejection of God is the greatest of sins, greater by far than what us humans see as appalling, such as the burning of humans by huge , burning explosives or shoving objects up them.
In fact , the Jews know that their rejection of His prophets ‘Eesa AS and Muhammad SAW, is their worst sin.
They are simply defying God for taking Palestine from them.
So Jews raping Muslims is neither sexual nor torture. For Jews It is defiance of God, which is , they know, the one sin God doesn’t forgive.
Is it a good idea to blatantly defy your Creator ? Are they waiting for some Biblical portent to devour them?
Not going to happen.

This whole forcing their way onto Palestine is a spiritual crime.
All Religious Jews know that, but some Khazar Jews maybe don’t know that, but see barging into Palestine as pure grift crime.
Certainly the Ukrainian Nazis of Likud , like Smotrich, see Zionism as a form.of colonialism, not as a spiritual rejection of God. These people are constantly trying to persuade the religious Jews that it’s not a spiritual crime of defiance of God to be a Zionist.
Like populist Boris Johnson he’s doing a fine job of persuading religious Jews to abandon their religion of tolerance and get Brexit, sorry, Genocide, done.

“What does what some feminists say about some heterosexual relationships or encounters have to do with Israeli soldiers anally group-raping other men with broomsticks?”
“I guess it means that all Israeli soldiers are sex-starved and they satisfy their needs with broomsticks.”
Is it even technically correct to call it “anal rape” when broomsticks or other objects are violently inserted into someone’s anus for the purpose of torture? Isn’t rape itself explicitly defined by the insertion of a penis? Asking anyone here.

This is of course complete BS and is hiding the truth that the Mosssad and IDF airbase (officially Azerbaijani) is likely to be hit by Iran and there is no adequate defence, hence withdrawal.
Also, the well known Israeli drone based in Georgia is also being evacuated.
Israeli media have now confirmed that “Soldiers on holiday in Georgia and Azerbaijan have been recalled”.
They would not flee like this unless they had intel Iran was going to hit them and soon.

I was petrified by covid. So many projects I wanted to finish, which thanks be to Allah, I am now finishing. Then to find it was all planned and organised by the State Dept for Defence , it gave purpose and meaning to my paranoias.
One of which is that the purpose of people doing disgusting and evil things is to divert attention from another thing, maybe a US financial crisis or maybe a terrible realisation by USUKIS that multipolarity has arrived.
The Israelis thought Uncle Sam would take out Iran for them but Uncle Sam said No because Putin and Xi would take action.
Sexuality is definitely linked to frustration. So these appalling rapes may be part of a sudden realisation by Israelis , male and female, that they are on their own. Uncle Sam has neither the power nor the pocket to do anything to help anyone.
Then , if there’s a banking crash instead of a genocide, and Israel backs down, Israelis going to get a thrashing by the Muslims.

imagine the outcry in the West and from its tightly-controlled propaganda Media if this very thing happened to israel and its population of some 9.5 million.
At least 760,000 of them would now be dead or dying within the next few months from all the bombing, lack of medical care, starvation and disease!
https://www.jonathan-cook.net/blog/2024-07-31/death-toll-gaza-lie/
Gaza’s official death toll is a lie. The casualty numbers are far, far higher
The figures have been stalled for months. That serves Israel’s interests by lulling western publics into a false sense of complacency
“….So, even by the simplest calculation, there is a large shortfall in deaths – a shortfall that needs explaining.
Such an explanation is easy to provide: Israel destroyed Gaza’s institutions and its medical infrastructure, including its hospitals, many months ago, making it impossible for officials there to keep track of how many Palestinians are being killed by Israel.
The death toll figures started to stall in the spring, around the time Israel completed its destruction of Gaza’s hospitals and kidnapped much of the enclave’s medical personnel.
More than a month ago, Save the Children pointed out that some 21,000 children in Gaza were missing, in addition to the 16,000 known to have been killed by Israel……
….The linear figure entirely misses the bigger picture. How?
1. Because in addition to the continuing Israeli bombardments, Palestinians have had to endure three more months of an intensifying famine. With each day of a famine, more people die than died the day before. The deaths in a famine are not linear, they are exponential. If 5 people died yesterday of starvation, 20 people will die today, and 150 tomorrow. That is how prolonged famines work…..
2. Because Palestinians have had three more months deprived of medical care after Israel destroyed their hospitals and medical institutions…
5. Because we know that – given the insanitary conditions, the lack of water and food, the weakened health status of the population, and the destruction of hospitals – epidemics now are breaking out…..
….A letter from researchers to the Lancet medical journal this month warned about the likely massive undercount of the dead in Gaza, even relying, as they had to, on the established death toll.
Their point was that indirect deaths – of the kind I enumerate above – need to be factored in as well as the direct deaths from Israeli bombs…..not just from bombs but as a result of the lack of medical care, insanitary conditions and famine – is 186,000, or 8 per cent of the population….
….The medical researchers suggest a less conservative estimate could ultimately put the death toll in Gaza nearer 600,000, or a quarter of the population. Again, that assumes Israel reverses course immediately….”
