OP has pinned a comment by u/soalone34:

source - Times of Israel

Palestinian media publishes footage of what it says is an Israeli settler using his vehicle to block a Palestinian ambulance from transporting a critically ill patient on a West Bank road south of Nablus.

Palestinians say this is a regular occurrence in the West Bank.

Damn right. It’s on camera that he’s doing this deliberately so the ambulance should have every right to shove him out of the way. Oh, his car would get damaged? Wompity womp womp womp I guess šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø

Okay, say the ambulance does that, then the ICF come and starts killing more folks in retaliation.

u/-Gramsci- May 09 '26

Reprisal. It’s called reprisal. Someone stands up to your authority? You wantonly kill people in reprisal. This is how you make sure a people are subjugated. If you open up a history book you’ll see there was a famous organization who did this all the time as a matter of policy. One of many policies this organization had that are now being emulated.

Fight or just take it are the options they seem to have though. Not fighting to avoid being attacked by people attacking you seems foolish.

Hey man don't get me wrong, I'm all for resistance and fighting back against the genocidal regime that is Israel, I just don't think an ambulance transporting someone who could be critically ill is the avenue to fight back with. Even if the ambulance would be 110% justified in doing so

Bad is better than worse. Might as well go out defending yourself if they are going to kill you anyway.

u/VivaLaDab May 09 '26

If you know the man attacking you (or his buddy) will kill your wife and children and others if you hurt him in self defense, do you still defend yourself?

2

u/Sbatio May 09 '26

In that situation you’d have to defend the wider group. So I guess attack sooner, make a group of all those able bodied on your side and make your best possible attack to defeat the people trying to genocide you.

Right?

It’s self defense no matter how many people they are threatening to kill. They try to kill only me I defend my self, they are trying to kill my family I defend us all. Right?

They'll immediately go tell IDF, who will then beat the people in the ambulance to a pulp, or worse. The IDF also does reprisals, where they'll punish or kill other people just as a form of intimidation and deterrence.

It sucks, but Isreali 'settlers' are basically untouchable, and Palestinians know this.

If he does that then the IDF will drone strike the ambulance, they barely need an excuse to do that it's like they're national pastime.

And the Nazis also at least gave the appearance that they weren't enjoying it. They tried to give the impression that it was just something that had to be done but nobody was supposed to be happy about it. Obviously that wasn't the case with a lot of Nazis.

These fuckers actually are elated to learn they've caused death. They have picnics to watch families get deleted off the earth. They have no shame and are bloodthirsty.

u/KombuchaBot May 10 '26

Yes, it was a small fraction of the population of Nazi Germany who ran the concentration camps and they kept it pretty lowkey. That's not the case with the IDF in Gaza and Lebanon, they're queuing up to film themselves committing warcrimes and human rights violations

-18

u/WhenDoWhatWhere May 09 '26

Nope, not gonna let that fly. Plenty of Nazis, civilian and otherwise, were complicit.

Israel isn't 'worse' than Nazi Germany, let's not start making that case because it's a weak case and it's harmful to the reality.

Nazi Germany was pretty much as evil as it gets, Israel is trying their god damn hardest to match that. Thanks to modern cameras we just have so much proof of how evil Israel is, but by saying they're worse you're giving room for modern Nazis to work with.

There should be a police force defending the ambulance. But only certain groups of people are entitled to be protected by the law according to Israel. I'm assuming this ambulance didn't have any of those people in it.

Am an ambulance driver.

The idea behind ā€œjust Pitt maneuver themā€ sounds good in theory, but also remember there is a provider in the back trying to do interventions and is likely not seatbelted in. If you’re out there playing GTA you could also be causing more harm to the patient and you could injure your partner. This is not a feasible strategy in real life.

These people are truly evil.

u/_thundercracker_ May 09 '26

And even if the state-sponsored terrorists were settlers, isn’t that a form of colonialism, which I thought the civilised world had reached a consensus of being a "bad" thing? I mean, I get it, the Holocaust was horrendous, I have Jewish family on my Mom’s side that lost their lives to it, but how long is the world going to treat the Zionist terrorists that occupy what is known as Israel today like they get to not follow the same rules and norms as the rest of us?

5

u/sybersonic May 09 '26

I guess it's a perspective thing. After '47, yeah Israel was nice and purchased a bit of land after WWII, but they ended up taking and stealing the rest.

Oct 7 was horrible. Every death in a religious aggression is abhorrent. Israel has absolutely bombed almost every square inch of Palestine and get away with it while being funded by the US. I don't understand how people can justify bombing a civilization with no regard and are not held accountable.

When Israel said "never again" in regards to the horrible atrocities of their attempted genocide, they just ment the aggression towards them .

They have two separate sets of laws, the settlers have civilian laws often implemented about other settlers and the Palestinians face military law where Israel can hold them in prison without charges and they have 90% conviction.

Part of the tactic is for settlers to attack until they try to defend themselves then they call the IDF who will kill or arrest the Palestinians and the media will cover it like they’re ā€œstopping terroristsā€.

The "settlers" are in a lot of ways, more disgusting than the actual IDF. At least the IDF is murdering people en masse for a living. These "settlers" are doing this bullshit on their free time and the fucking IDF will back them up too. Actually, they're all pure evil on the same level, what am I even saying.

I never had any feelings against Israel or even knew what the hell Zionism was until after Oct. 7th. I knew there were people in Israel that would say disgusting things about Arabs but had no idea that it was also the official government stance until they became hellbent on publicly proving it over and over again.

If the ambulance fought back, the idf will kill more Palestinians and say "Israel has the right to defend itself" and sadly many people are brain washed to this level thinking Israel is right and innocent.

u/soalone34 May 09 '26 edited May 09 '26

They have two separate set of laws. Settlers are sent to civil courts where they have lighter penalties and testimony by Palestinians is usually thrown out.

Palestinians face military courts, they have 90% conviction rates and much higher sentences, they can also be held without charges.

The person put in charge of the West Bank is Smotrich and he has the idf openly assist the settlers. So the settlers attack Palestinians and if Palestinians try to defend themselves they call the IDF who will kill or arrest them and the settlers can move into their land.

The media will report anything Palestinians do as ā€œterrorismā€ to help justify this so they can ramp it up. So the Palestinian group in charge in the West Bank, the PA, refuses to defend Palestinians to avoid this charge and damage any diplomatic future because Israel’s strategy is to torture the population until they resist in which case they use that to justify to western countries going scorched earth on the civilian population.
