    Maybe just build train tracks, for efficiency? Make sure to get their gold teeth before they board.

    Israeli police are truly awful in my experience. They are not the Army, so that’s an important distinction, but they are some of the worst people I’ve crossed paths with in Israel. They don’t need an excuse to be racist and violent, that’s pretty much what they’re there for.

    I once called the police on a group of people who were harassing a woman. When the police showed up, all they did was start cracking up, like legit rolling on the ground laughing, because the group of people doing the harassing turned out to be the latest class of police trainees who had just graduated. I guess they were celebrating by harassing a random woman? Needless to say, no one was held accountable, and I was told if I wasn’t American they would have arrested me.

      Unlike the Army, they’re allowed to use chemical weapons.Well, not that the Israeli military lets the Geneva Conventions get in the way of their offensives.

      Most cops are fucking awful, globally. That’s why they sought out a cop job in the first place; copping enable assholes to apply pressure and power on anyone they feel like with little to no possibile recourse

      It’s absolutely not unique to America at all

      I’m sure he would rather put them on trains. And still wouldn’t see the hypocrisy.

      Funny you mention that… one of the things that barely gets any mention in history books is how enthusiastically Europe’s police forces collaborated with the Holocaust - the Vichy police literally rounded up Jewish people by the thousand to send off to the death camps without the Nazis even asking them to do so.

      It’s almost like the institution of police was invented to act as a distillery for the worst right-wing goons that the people at the top can sicc on anyone that the status quo has painted as a threat and/or scapegoat.

        The police are an inherently fascist force, from the very moment they were created, up to this very day.

        I think that’s absolutely true but also a position of power is gonna attract the power hungry. A position permitted to use violence …

          It’s actually somewhat difficult to tell which aspects of US policing wasn’t born out of the slave patrol. I guess you could say that the Texas Rangers is an aspect that wasn’t born out of it… it was born out of the need to commit pogroms and generalized genocide against Native Americans.

    “Don’t protest our war efforts where we are indiscriminately killing civilians, or we’ll drop you off in the middle of that area, where you’ll likely be indiscriminately killed.”

    Why not just send them to gas chambers instead… Fucking nazi prick.

    It’s ironic how Israel has become exactly like the persecutors that lead to this state to even be created.

    What’ll they do with them in Gaza? Put them in working camps?

    I wish they’d see the bitter irony of it and correct course, but at this stage, wishing for them to choke on it seems like a more feasible option.

    This sounds very similar to what US mayors and governors do with the unhoused or the undocumented they don’t want to deal with. There’s been various cases documented in recent years.

      Like the widely reported case of DeSantis and Abbott conspiring to traffic migrants to a completely different state. When you commit human trafficking to own the Dems.

      No, they dont send them to an area where they’re dropping thousands of bombs on UN schools and hospitals.
