    I came here thinking this sounds like she might be getting woke-cancelled for suggesting Israel is pure as driven snow…

    Khalifa even urged Hamas fighters to “flip their phones and film” executions horizontally in one of her posts.

    Nevermind, she can go fuck herself with a cactus.

    If you think military fighters executing civilians is an acceptable strategy, you probably deserve to be among those civilians and see how you like it.

      They took her comment grossly out of context for effect. The actual quote was…

      “Can someone please tell the freedom fighters in Palestine to flip their phones and film horizontal."

      Yeah, pretty tasteless, but it’s not what the article makes it out to be. She’s largely getting dragged for openly criticizing Israel’s genocide and the media is skewing the situation to make her look worse. Can’t have the masses questioning the party line and all.

      Considering Israel is carpet bombing and entire city of non-combatants perhaps you should get some perspective.

        So two wrongs do make a right, then?

        FUCK Hamas with a cactus FUCK the Israel government with a cactus

        You don’t need to know that Israel are carpet bombing a city (which is wrong) to know that Hamas executing civilians is also wrong. Neither side are justified in the horrific war crimes they are committing.

          Maybe check that again. Those reports came from a less than reputable Israeli newspaper and was based on claims from IDF sources. There’s no independent confirmation. It’s pretty much just war propaganda to dehumanize the Palestininans and clear the road for the atrocities to come.
