#politics #angry I'm sorry but I have to point out how 1984 doublespeak this situation is right now as Israel pounds civilian areas in Lebanon https://x.com/ALJADEEDNEWS/status/1841288430858145804 with no regard for civilian life, claiming they were all "human shields" and as Iran launches precise strikes with small explosions on military targets https://x.com/WarMonitors/status/1841170806187180212 CNN complains that Mossad HQ is surrounded by civilians https://x.com/SarkastikB/status/1841168009177468992 ... why doesn't he say that Israel is using civilians as human shields to protect Mossad HQ? It is pure fucking willful blindness and hypocracy, wildly obvious and insane to the degree that I cannot for the life of me understand how some people on nostr still think Israel makes a good case for itself. Iran is not killing civilians. Hezbollah wasn't killing civilians (they were depeating the Iron Dome and hitting sensor arrays). Israel is slaughtering civilians, taking out city blocks. If there is such a thing as good and evil, it is patently clear which one is evil.
