For anyone curious, someone claiming to have worked for him made an hour long video dissecting Mr. Beast and his practices.
A large portion of that covers gambling aimed at children and the vulnerable, use of dark psychology, and a plethora of other illegal/malpractices.

And if that bloodbath wasn’t enough, just hours later, at dusk, soldiers burst into the Jenin home of Wafa, a 51-year-old social activist who had never been arrested before, ransacked the house and took her with them when they left. She remained in their jeep, bound, for about four hours. Then, as the vehicle started to move out toward their base, it exploded (apparently after a device was thrown at it), leaving the woman seriously wounded; both legs were subsequently amputated above the knee. She is hospitalized in serious condition in Jenin’s Ibn Sina Hospital, ventilated and barely responsive.

No need for that when you can manufacture a famine to do the rest of the dirty work (amongst other catastrophes of course).

Those that enact and endorse this barbaric practice should be forced to give up their homes and everything in it, and give it to the affected Palestinians for reparations.
I don’t think this post should have been removed. I wanted to see arguments and rebuttals being made.
Nothing has changed since since 2002. Every accusation is a confession.
25,000+ is grave, but 60,000+ injured unable to get proper care and treatment because it was ripped from them make the dead enviable. What percentage of these people has Israel maimed, permanently depriving them of their senses, their limbs, and their health?

But since everyone has to serve in the IDF, lots of shitty people are also veterans of the IDF.
I understand where you’re coming from, but I think this ignores the fact that Israel’s dehumanization and brutalization of Palestinians is a systematic one. It’s not just that there are good and bad humans in the IDF as much as it is that negative behavior is encouraged, often unpunished, and rewarded even, whereas positive behavior is disparaged. This has been the case for a long time where soldiers who would try to stop or hold their peers accountable for murders, tortures, and rapes were often turned into pariahs and be given death threats and the like.
With that said, I do wholeheartedly agree with everything else that you have said. You raise some really good questions.
NYPD is investigating claims that the chemical unleashed on these students is “skunk”, an agent developed in Israel and used as a crowd control weapon, most commonly in the occupied West Bank. SJP said the chemicals were sprayed by two students who are former Israeli soldiers, who mixed in with the crowd by wearing Palestinian keffiyehs. The Guardian could not verify this claim, and the NYPD and Columbia did not directly respond to questions about the identity of the perpetrators. According to a statement from Columbia, “the alleged perpetrators of the attack have been identified and immediately banned from campus while law enforcement’s investigation proceeds”.
If it ends up being true that the perpetrators were IDF veterans. . . were they so used to doing this bullshit with impunity back in Palestine that they thought they could just get away with this scot free?
The Israeli soldiers stormed the building. “They banged on our door. My husband … told them we are all civilians. They took him to another apartment. I followed them, pleading with them to let him go because we are civilians,” she said.
“They beat me and my daughters. They put us women in one place and threatened us with guns and knives. They made us strip. They searched us, insulting us using the most terrible words,” Salem added.
The soldiers disregarded their pleas and proceeded to “execute” all the men they rounded up outside.
“My husband was one of the 19 men killed in this building. They ordered them to bend down and executed them. They killed them all.”
The footage shows the bodies of men with the entry holes of bullets in their back.
After the men were killed, the apartment that Salem and her daughters were sheltering in was hit, one of her daughters told Al Jazeera, killing her three-year-old sister, Nada.
“I was holding my sister in my arms. Then the shelling resumed. Nada was hit. She made some soft sounds. She asked for some water.”
“I thought she was crying. But she was dying. Shrapnel had entered her head, eyes and neck. My sister tried to carry her body but she fell from her arms at the door.”

No, the url for this one is a bit extended, so maybe the old posts don’t show up in the crosspost section.
