    WE DONT KNOW 100% FOR SURE WHAT HAPPENED HERE. Any video like this lacks context.

    DON’T BELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU SEE. This is how distrust for serious, real journalism is formed! It’s why there are juries, it’s why evidence is questioned.

    I am zero fan of IDF, war, or killing children. But we do NOT 100% know that that is related to this.

      Also: comment all you want, I don’t have the source video or other corroborating videos or anything else at the time I write this comment. I have one video, I don’t see identification on anyone, and I have an internet stranger account claiming this is an IDF soldier and a Unicef worker. The burden of proof isn’t on me!

    Perfect example of the irrational hatred people have had instilled in them by their governments/parents/education. To be clear, this guy saw a group of UNICEF workers on the street trying to help people, and thought “no, they’re helping the people I’ve been taught to hate, so I will attack and threaten them with violence/death for doing so.”

    Absolute muppet. Should be rounded up and sent back to his shithole country.

        Yeah im sure his hatred is his own, but the specific targeting of UN staff is not his own idea. Its an implanted idea that utilizes his existing hatred and gives it a target in order to quell potential internal resistance in the Israeli population.

      1. The rape narrative has been massively overblown with little evidence backing it up besides racial bias against brown men. Did some women get sexualy assaulted, probably, was it widespread and systemic like the media is pushing, probably not. This isn’t to excuse the disgusting behavior of hamas on October 7th, just saying it’s more likely this guy sexualy assaulted Palestinians in an Israeli jail then his girlfriend being assaulted.

      2. Just cause a member of a group did something bad to you doesn’t give you the right to abuse that group back. If that guy’s girlfriend was sexualy assaulted by a black person that doesn’t give him the right to yell slurs and push around black people on the street. This guy wasn’t yelling about hamas he was yelling at the idea of Palestine, that’s just straight up racism.

              People dont want to hate. But some want to walk about being violent. How can you excuse his behavior? Make up a better reason than «his gf might be raped by some other dudes». Why is he kicking, head butting and trying to punch people? Lets see a few and do an occam’s razor on them.

          No, don’t dirty delete just because you got downvotes. Instead open your mind to the replies and try to understand why you got so many (hint: It’s because you were trying to excuse a violent assault, by an obviously hateful person, using lies promoted by an army that’s currently committing genocide).

            Hahaha no, you should let your comment stand. I did not try to excuse his actions, that guy was acting like an asshole, but I did want people not to judge someone - which, in a court of law, only happens after consideration of someone’s circumstances.

            Hamas’ horrible and violent acts, however, are not lies promoted by any army. Does the Israeli army promote lies? Probably. But not that terrorist organizations are despicable, that doesn’t need to be lied about.

              This is saying “hey don’t judge this guy attacking random unicef workers unconnected to the people he hates while spewing hate. He might be having a hard time”.

              You display no empathy for the people experiencing this assault, only for its perpetrator. Your further opinions regarding genocide can be inferred from there.

          Thing is, adults, like properly emotionally mature people, don’t attack random people on the street because they’re volunteering to raise funds for an absolutely gigantic organisation to help people. I used to work for a Croatian man and his brother in law. They fought in the Bosnian conflict, and both ended up working for a series of mercenary outfits after. The levels of PTSD in these guys was…honestly…kinda fucked. I worked with them for the better part of 10 years. Met as many of their families that survived. They were adult enough to hire a few Bosnian guys as subcontract, we’d go for drinks end of the week. And these Bosnian guys were in some of the same battles as my boss and his BiL, literally trying to kill each other. What the fuck did those UNICEF people do to fucknuts? Exist? Fuck him.

      Look, I get it. I read through this thread, and I get the point you’re making, absolutely.

      Always, always remember that we’re all human and prone to horrible errors of judgement. We don’t know the dude, we don’t know his story that led up to this.

      What you seem to be missing is that a past trauma is no more or less likely than a neutral or positive past. None of those excuse assault and battery. You can absolutely judge a person based on their actions. We do it all the time in jury trials. Him having had some kind of suffering related to Palestine or Hamas wouldn’t mean he wasn’t guilty of assault and battery, though it might mitigate things for sentencing.

      Would those UNICEF workers now be justified in going somewhere, screaming at some Israeli bank teller and head butting them? No. And I think you know that.

      I applaud your compassion. We should always consider such things in forming opinions. We also do not have to forego judgement because of that compassion.

        Is it really good hearted compassion or is it mental gymnastics trying to blame Hamas for this guy being a dickhead?

        Using “maybe Hamas raped someone close to him” isn’t exactly “turn the other cheek” in the context of being kind to bullies
