The 'Israeli' army has launched a criminal investigation into the leak of footage from the Sde Teiman detention camp, which shows a blindfolded, handcuffed Palestinian detainee being raped for approximately 15 minutes by a unit of 'Israeli' reservists.

The probe focuses on whether officials in the Military Advocate General’s (MAG) office which facilitated the leak to Channel 12, rather than targeting the perpetrators themselves. 'Israel’s' chief military prosecutor, Maj. Gen. Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi, has taken leave amid the scandal.

When WikiLeaks blew open US corruption, war crimes and human rights violations they went after the whistle blowers, Julian Assange, and Chelsea Manning.

United States "The leader of the free world" and Israel "The only democracy in the Middle East" in action.

The fuck? Why are they investigating the whistleblower and not the fucking rapists?

Fuck that shithole and everyone who supports it.

They had pro rape protests, they're goy and Zionists don't see goy as fully human. Rape them, enslave them, take their homes it doesn't matter and never really has.

Why are you surprised . Zionists even before the creation of the terrorist state wanted to genocide palestinians

[–] bobbyfiend@lemmy.ml 11 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

This is indeed horrific. It's also almost standard practice for many nations, including the USA (my country), where whistleblowers are routinely put in prison instead of their information being evaluated seriously.

[–] Snowclone@lemmy.world 7 points 16 hours ago

Hay hay! Corporate whistleblowers often just die. Of reason.

[–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 87 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I just cannot fathom the level of inhumanity it takes, even in war, to do something like this. To see a prisoner raped and think that the right course of action is to persecute the person who brought it to light. These people are evil.

[–] eatCasserole@lemmy.world 24 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

It's beyond fucked up. The "state of israel" is a terrorist organization that must be destroyed, and everyone involved tried for their crimes.

[–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 8 points 20 hours ago

Seriously. Even if everything went exactly how I want it to (it won’t ever) it would be difficult to punish an entire country without also committing atrocities though.

[–] Tangentism@lemmy.ml 16 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

They are supremacists that see everyone else as dogs to be abused and killed.

It's why Israel has no future and needs to be wiped from the map and only spoken about as a shit stain on the underpants of history

[–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 3 points 8 hours ago

I agree. Here’s the thing that stresses me out with reading about historical context and mistakes other leaders have made about atrocities like this.

There isn’t always historical pretext. New things happen. And this could be just how it always is, for at least our lifetimes. The only option is fighting back somehow. But all the organizing I’ve done for the last 10 years have barely done shit.

Please advocate for Nuremberg Trials for these Nazi atrocities. Justice for the victims of ethno-nationalist fascism is as necessary here just as it was after the holocaust.

[–] PeacefulForest@lemmy.world 13 points 19 hours ago

Makes me want to throw up

[–] cyborganism@lemmy.ca 35 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

Didn't Israelis advocate for the right for military personnel to rape Palestinian prisoners?

That's why they're trying to find the whistle-blower.

Sorry, you have any other sources than X?

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 3 points 23 hours ago

Yes this is that case.

[–] ieatpwns@lemmy.world 18 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago) (1 children)

Why don’t they investigate the rapists? Is anything illegal in Israel?

[–] Catalyst_A@lemmy.ml 20 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

They held a "right to r*pe rally" after the incident and won the public support victory. The actual r*pist is now doing a talk show tour in Israel. Ben Gvir said if their Hamas then they can be r*ped. With no due process or evidence at all they can say anyone is Hamas, arrest them and r*pe them. Israel and America or totally morally bankrupt.

Maybe lemmy.ml censors it.

[–] KoboldCoterie@pawb.social 17 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Why are they putting Israel and Israeli in quotes? Are they implying that it wasn't actually Israelis perpetrating this, or that it isn't actually Israel performing the investigation? Or is this some political statement I'm not privy to?

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 28 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 23 hours ago) (2 children)

Roya is Jordanian news site. Jordan doesn't recognize Israel as a country but an illegal entity.

[–] redrumBot@lemmy.ml 7 points 21 hours ago

I thought Jordan had recognized Israel in 1994, when they signed the peace agreement.

Nice to know that they have retracted.

[–] KoboldCoterie@pawb.social 8 points 23 hours ago

Gotcha, thanks for the context.

[–] NewDark@lemmings.world 28 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Israel is a recently created country that only exists on stolen Palestinian land. It's highlighting the fakeness of its existence. It's occupied Palestine.

[–] RaivoKulli@sopuli.xyz 1 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Huge chunk of world's countries are younger than Israel. Like most of African countries for example. I don't think the age itself means much

[–] NewDark@lemmings.world 3 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

It matters as it's relative to international law being established and the country explicitly existing on stolen land.

[–] RaivoKulli@sopuli.xyz 1 points 19 hours ago

It sounds like in itself it doesn't matter but rather in connection with something else

[–] kokesh@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Maybe because israel is a "state"? Don't know. But it should be dismantled.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 23 hours ago

Yeah, the leak is the problem here. Fucking monsters.

[–] bouh@lemmy.world 2 points 23 hours ago

Why is Israel word between quotes?
