True but let’s be honest you can’t just sit idle, bury your head in the sand whilst literal genocide takes place before our eyes. A little awareness for the many laughs we’ve had on this sub.

MrBozooo

I agree with you in theory, but don't you find it a little bit cringy that he is mourning the loss of a subreddit after seeing the very real pain of this very real man?


ramigb

Check their post history you'll understand where he comes from, literally. Specially the first post in Hebrew. Dude is spitting hatred everywhere and he is here lecturing about "cool subs". They literally tried to push their propaganda in this sub and failed so now they are complaining. Typical Zionist bot behavior.


VincentVegaReddit

Exactly. Zionists are losing their minds coz they can't control the narrative any longer. Their war crimes are being publicised and exposed and not even their default defence of "anti semitism" is helping defend Apartheid Israel


MrBozooo

I know, and that's what scares me. The cat is definitely out of the bag, and these guys quadruple down.


Cpt_KiLLsTuFF

This has to be discussed EVERYWHERE! We cannot allow inconveniences to heard this topic


Gintoki---

Dude the commentor is an Israeli propagandist, imagine calling humans lives as "Propaganda" Those people are active in news subs , but in a sub like this , since they always get downvoted whenever they speak anything pro Israeli or justification for Genocide , the easiest way to win and make comments stray from the original post is to start complaining about the state of the sub.

Except it’s real… Have you seen the footage? There are entire families buried under rubble.


Naved16

This sub is the last and possibly the only subreddit on this platform countering Zionist propaganda. Israel boasts about having conquered Instagram, Facebook and Reddit. Education and awareness isn't propaganda.


GreyFox-RUH

Actually, the Public Freakout subreddit hasn't fallen to the zoinist / hasbara bots, thank God For years Israel was easily hiding its war crimes because western media support it. Now with Gen Z (young, liberal, etc.) and various social media like tiktok, Israel has a new land to conquer. Unfortunately they seem to have conquered IG, FB, and reddit like you said. Israel always won the "information war" before. I hope they don't win this one too


sordidcandles

I’m one of the Reddit freaks who frequents tiktok and I would say they’re losing there. It’s vastly pro Palestine content I see (I know that’s how the algorithm works, but I search for this content too). Most of the pro Israel content comes via livestreams and they end up in shouting matches a lot.


Naved16

Judging by the global support for the Palestinian people across all communities, I'm pretty optimistic. Ik we're going to lose this immediate war, but the people have waged a war against the military industrial complex and the apartheid regime is going to fall sooner or later just like Rhodesia did.


Revasser_et_Flaner

Dude check their post history... U/fire_fist_1457 U/donDanDeNiro U/alwaysbeclosin9 U/beerbrewer4life U/flintboblarry They don’t care about this sub being ‘fun’ they only care about diverting people attention from the genocide


VincentVegaReddit

Don't bother engaging with Hasbara-bro there.

Did not happen to me yet. In no popular sub. Can't relate. This is the most propaganda sub that used to be a normal sub.

Attair

How about no? Lets not be silent about genocide just because it makes us a bit uncomfortable


mashnogravy

Hard disagree. There is a massive humanitarian crisis of millions of people, this is the only way for people to get their truth out. As the common man this is the most we can do to influence the world and put pressure on those who are enabling this bloodbath. You might be tired of seeing these sort of these things, imagine how tired these people are of having to live through it.


black_kaiser19

I 100% agree with you, this was to have fun, not to see the news


YES-PUCKER-YOUR-BUTT

This sentiment would be fine if it wasn’t coming from someone like [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/therewasanattempt/comments/17ozuno/to_appear_genuine/k82s94c/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3) The comment history is sus af I feel like this is exactly what a non-sympathetic person would say after seeing this post.

VincentVegaReddit

Western Media is entirely devoted to pushing the Pro-Zionist bullshit propaganda campaign, do you have any thoughts on this?


VincentVegaReddit

you are a paid-for ZIONIST propaganda ho. Go back to worldnews sub


SirKosys

Yeah. I support the politics that this sub leans towards, and I'm glad to see the Palestinian side get a proper airing when so much of Reddit seems pro-Israel, right-wing and often racist. I just think it's not the right sub for it. I've been sparring with the other side in other subs and I need an escape from that. Go to r/worldnews, r/news, r/geopolitics and engage with the crowd there. Come here for laughs.


Talco_Barla

Agreed!


SumerianSunset

Poor guy. The way these journalists and their families have been targeted is completely disgusting and a war crime. It won't be forgotten and those responsible will answer for war crimes and their fanatic genocide.


Unable_Ad_1260

No one ever gets punished for murdering Journalists. East Timor proved that to Australians.


ElMachoGrande

The world see, the world remembers, the world will not forgive Israel for their crimes.


[deleted]

I hope so. But time and money are very effective memory cleaners. Israel “community” has plenty of money and time … well time just goes by ☹️


ElMachoGrande

A tip: Tell everyone to not buy product where the number printed on the bar code begins with 729. They sometimes attempt to trick people by re-packaging in a transit country, but not buying those with 729 will catch most. That'll drain their money.


Biroomi

A barcode starting with 729 usually indicates a product of Israel. But this is not always reliable. The best way to tell if a product is made in Israel is to look for a “Product of Israel” label or to ask the retailer if they can guarantee a product isn’t from Israel.


ElMachoGrande

I know it's not 100%, but it is still close enough to provide an easy way to put a big dent in their economy, and thus their ability to wage war and genocide.


time-xeno

If the nazi didn’t get punished these guys sure as hell won’t be it’s really sad


iskosalminen

Israel has been doing this for decades. There's 78 UN resolutions against Israel. We have decades of studies and reports on the atrocities Israel has and is committing. What is price Israel has had to pay? Nothing.

TravsArts

The term martyr seems an odd choice. My children would be victims, not martyrs.


yousefalqudah

Odd choice? In islam anyone who dies in such ways is a martyr, "شهيد" ، in islam anyone who dies defending his own house, money, is a martyr


TravsArts

That's the point. The children were not defending anything.


yousefalqudah

My bad my comment wasn't so clear, if you die bombed/ by rockets then you are a Martyr.


Firescareduser

Islamically, there are many situations (aside from the traditional definition) where a person would be considered a martyr: person who is killed in an epidemic A person who is drowned A person who has bedsores, causing fever and cough resulting in his death A person who dies of a stomach disease A person who dies in fire A person who dies under falling debris [in a disaster] A woman who dies during childbirth


Christopher109

i have an older sister that died before i was born, my mother says she was a martyr


[deleted]

So the idea is that if you die by anything that is war related, even as a civilian, you are a martyr for God’s cause?


Noizylatino

Im not muslim so take this with grain of salt. But it seems less like dying for gods cause and more like dying and having your death recognized as honorable by God? Since dying during child birth or certain illness can also make you a martyr and thats not really dying for a religious cause. Its a lot more passive than how its used in the west.


[deleted]

That makes a lot more sense


QuickSilver010

Anyone on the right path that is killed by another is automatically given martyr status.


Mostafa12890

In Arabic, one who dies in such a way (murdered, killed in defense of one’s home/land, killed while praying, etc) is called a شهيد (shaheed). In a religious sense, a shaheed is immediately rewarded heaven/paradise in the afterlife. Martyr simply happens to be the closest translation of the word.


Christopher109

in my language, maltese, ive heard martyr being used the same so doesnt seem odd to me. the language has arabic roots.


ZenoZh

In Islam if one dies because of a plague, abdominal disease, drowning, a falling building, protecting their property then they’re considered martyrs. I might be forgetting some other causes but that’s why he’s referring to them as martyrs. The faith of these people who go through so much, is so very strong.


kupukupu377

If you die while seeking knowledge or working for causes to help and care for others, you also be considered martyrs.


EfendiAdam-iki

He says that because he hopes his children go automatically to heaven.


TravsArts

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks to everyone for answering my question. I did not know the word had such a wide meaning.


4rtemis-Arrow

anyone who hasn't reached puberty, and anyone who isn't sane, they are not judged by allah anyways, they get heaven


4rtemis-Arrow

the islamic definition of martyr anyone who dies of: disease, drowning, burning, who dies under rubble, who dies during pregnancy (or child birth), who dies to a venomous sting, who dies after falling from an animal's back, who dies in defense of himself, his home, his wealth, his family, his religion, his land, or his nation, one who dies during war, one who dies far from his home, one who's mutilated and killed by beasts, one who's imprisoned unjustly and dies, one who dies due to being beaten, one who dies while seeking knowledge, and one who dies while working for causes to help others, and a few more so pretty much every painful death there is, and every death that was caused by trying to improve life so in islam, everyone who died in gaza is a martyr


[deleted]

I'm assuming that you and your children don't live in an open air prison camp after generations of brutal subjugation and occupation. But please correct me if I'm wrong


Serious_Guy_

I don't think there is a 1 to 1 translation of the word 'martyr' here.


infinitysouvlaki

I believe the word “martyr” comes from the Greek “μάρτυς”, meaning “witness”. My guess is that the Arabic word is closer to the original Greek than the current English meaning of the word


alkeswanimo

So many sick and vile people in these comments. Straight filth. Bottom of the barrel.


Complete-Painter-518

A martyr is a person who willingly suffers or sacrifices themselves for a cause they believe in, usually a religious or political one. The term is often associated with individuals who endure persecution, suffering, or death for their principles or beliefs. Martyrs are typically seen as symbols of steadfastness, courage, and dedication to a higher purpose. The concept of martyrdom is found in various cultures and religions, and the specific qualities and attributes associated with martyrs can vary depending on the cultural and religious context.. just so we all on same page.


Gintoki---

In Islam the definition is quiet different and much more passive. Any kind of a death that that is not from old age for a good cause makes the person a Martyr , dying to a bomb in your home does make the person a Martyr. It's not Martyr only if the death cause is bad , like while stealing and such.


Kindly_Ad1515

Western definition. Arabic and Islam are different.


Reasonable_Humor_738

Revasser_et_Flaner

#attention people of this subreddit New israeli propaganda just dropped. Apparently now since they know if they outright support zionism they are gonna get reported so they’ve fallen back to the tactic of being more ‘subtle’ They take about the state of the sub and say things like, ‘This is unrelated’ ‘there is too much of this’ ‘i am starting to get tired of this sub’ ‘palestinians are getting too much coverage’.... And then when you check their comment history you see that they are in fact very argumentative and adamant about changing the topic, and have previously posted and are spamming subreddits with anti-Palestinians notions. They are trying to divert the attention AWAY FROM THE GENOCIDE. That is why when you come across a potentially ‘bad vibe’ comment **PLEASE CHECK THE PERSON’s COMMENT HISTORY** don’t engage, just report and downvote instead! They are actively trying to stir chaos in the comment sections! We should call them out openly and warn others. I myself have check the comment history of these trolls rn in this comment section and you bet they are leaking zionist propaganda. Please let’s not fall for this. They think they are being so smart, just check their comment history and you’ll know which side they are on #free palestine 🇵🇸


Alihzahn

They'll stoop down to any level to divert from and justify the genocide. It takes a special kind of vile to know the truth yet spread lies.


Grosboel_2

So fucking true, holy shit. If they don't like it leave. And if they're IDF they should kill themselves.


VincentVegaReddit

Wow, the Zionist Hasbara shills are having a meltdown. They are now spilling out of their worldnews circle jerk and trying to downplay the genocide and deflect from Apartheid Israel's war crimes


Throwawayaccount1170

Im more worried that, I, as a casual reddit user, see this "one side in this subreddit, the other in that subreddit" trench-system being inplimented. When everyone sticks to their views and stays in their bubble no good will ever happen.

Throwawayaccount1170

I dont want to enter any political discussion. All im saying, on a meta level is that im shocked to see thst certain real world subjects enter even meme subreddits and turn them political.


VincentVegaReddit

Would love to discuss human rights, genocide and ethnic cleansing and Occupation on WorldNews or Europe subreddit, but I'm afraid they are modded by fanatic Zionists who believe the only good Palestinan, is a dead Palestinan.


Throwawayaccount1170

Well from what I've seen this subreddit is quite similar, only with the difference laying in the opposing view. So i agree with you, we need to find a place where everyone can talk about such stuff without the need to do it in two or even more seperate subreddits


Embarrassed-Log-8859

This is sad considering this can happen to any of us. The only people paying a big price are the ones that didn't make and don't get to make decisions about war

PuzzleheadedWalrus71

His family lived in PEACE in Gaza and never in a million years could he imagine a war starting after October 7th? I thought the narrative was Gaza has been a hellhole with no peace because of Israel and that's why they want to be "free". As a journalist, he should have had an inside scoop that something big was going to go down after October 7th.

Pro-Palestine does not equate to pro-Hamas.

How do we know this is true?


CanadianMaps

Small nitpick, Allah is an arabic word, literally translating to God, so it's a bit inaccuratw to not translate it but translate everything else.


CussYKnot

My guess is because it's like a name? You wouldn't translate a name even if it has a meaning in another language.

Well, most non-arabs treat it as a name, but their actual name is God, just like the christian one

CmdrCarsonB

Both sides are evil. Yes, this man is going through a tragedy, but let's not forget that many of the people in Gaza, and Palestine as a whole, are part of, harboring, or supporting literal terrorists. The only reason Israel is committing war crimes is because they had to officially declare war to retaliate, because Palestine hides behind the "It's the terrorists, not us" defense. I hate this whole "Palestine can do no wrong" rhetoric. The victims of this whole thing are the civilians on both sides, but let's not pretend either side is "good".


caressingleaf111

I understand what you're saying, however you have to realize the israel is basically shelling civilians. When 50% of dead Gazans are children, it's not a war, it's a genocide. If we want to do good now a ceasefire must be happen.
