Hey he's not a terrorist! He's a war criminal and a genocider. Please.

[–] dessalines@lemmy.ml 89 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

He is absolutely a terrorist also. He fits every definition of one.

Side point but where does this "one-upper" tendency come from? Just let people describe things in terms that make sense to them. This isn't twitter, there's no reason to contradict them.

I would think that genocide is some order of magnitude worse than terrorist (which is obviously very shitty to begin with), so I would like to make it clear that Bibi is somewhere at the top of my personal ranking of shit people.

But terrorist is fine (if I may say so), too.

It's not an "either/or" scenario. He can be both.

[–] Mycatiskai@lemmy.ca 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

He is responsible for a genocide in Gaza and possibly in the West Bank but also a terrorist in the other countries they are attacking like the pager attacks that killed children and other innocents in collateral damage.

Israel: rigs consumer electronics to explode

Also Israel: throws a fucking tantrum over boycotts directed at them

[–] Greddan@feddit.org 33 points 3 days ago

Israel does fit the definition of a terrorist state, especially since they often admit to terror attacks they either sponsor or commit themselves. Also they had a self-described (and convicted) terrorist as a leader for a while.

I mean, blowing up aid vans and air striking refugee encampments is pretty terrorist-y

[–] drolex@sopuli.xyz 18 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Fair enough. Terrorist and war criminal and genocidist then

[–] trolololol@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Ok he's a terrorist and war criminal and genocidist and wears a bad hair cut. Anything else?

[–] Assassassin@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Probably has bad taste in music. Huge fan of U2, I'd bet.

It's legit to call this asshole and all his supporters what ever you want, except animal names to not insult these

[–] culprit@lemmy.ml 10 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (2 children)

It is just different levels of specificity really. I found the meme and didn't think to edit it. I think terrorist would be applicable especially for the pager attack, Doha strike on negotiators, attacks of Iranian scientists, etc. Maybe you should look up the Mossad use of terrorism if you are not aware.

[–] degen@midwest.social 8 points 3 days ago

Was about to bring up the pagers cause that's literal state sanctioned terrorism any way you look at it. It's still surprisingly unsurprising that we're cool with it.

The man has many talents, I have to admit

[–] alaphic@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Hey, hey, hey... That's fucked up; you can't just call someone a 'genocider' lile thaf...

It's genocid*-ist*

[–] drolex@sopuli.xyz 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I was wondering what's the right word? It's bizarre, it's like genocides happen without a cause à la "thousands of people have been taken in a genocide" - oh well these things happen you know, no one to blame 🤷‍♂️

[–] queermunist@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 days ago

I've been using genocidier.
