    This is so delusional I’m almost lacking words. The reporter saying “Critics would say Isreal started the war by attacking Iran about 48 hours ago” puts it perfectly. The way she just completely waves that off is just crazy to me.

    Israel bombing Iran and killing hundreds, and then acting shocked when they strike back is like some sick “shocked picachu” moment. It’s like they can’t comprehend that this time they hit a country with an actual military that can respond, and that their own citizens will suffer and die for it.

    No girl, everyone hates your guts because you’re a genocidal colonizer, not because you’re Jewish.

    I guess being Israeli means living in the idea that you’re the victim no matter how many countries your state attacked, how many people they killed. They still ride on the idea that they are poor oppressed people, because of the Holocaust. That was an unthinkable terrible thing, but doesn’t give anyone the right to do a similar kind of thing to others.

    Says they didn’t do anything and then proceeded to say no one wants Iran to have nuclear weapons. Sounds like she knows perfectly well that they started it. She is just upset they attacked Israel instead of all those other countries that don’t want Iran to have nuclear weapons.

    Having state enforced national narratives of unjust persecution (towards Israel, not just real historical anti-Semitism), blaming others for everything going badly, dehumanizing adversaries etc is bound to create this type of almost delulu social narcissism. “I’m the greatest victim” is the textbook manifestation of vulnerable subtype of narcissism. I wouldn’t pathologize a whole society normally but the overwhelming support for the ongoing genocide means at least functionally inhibited or reduced empathy and we need to learn from this.

    I propose prescribing them a few more mandatory covid boosters to get “smarter”. October 7 false flag organized by their criminal government was very transparent. If doing genocide of Gaza and attacking sovereign countries and peaceful civilians is alright then let them enjoy it.

    This is what happens when the majority of the media is state owned. People live in a world of illusions, like in Turkey, like in N Korea, like in most other fascist states.

      It has nothing to do with ‘state-owned’ or not. That is just an anti-scientific dogmatic propaganda from the Blue Church. Private media can be bought - in fact, can ONLY be bought - to show a story, and they wouldn’t care shit if its true or not. Privatised media is just controlled by psychopath Capitalists that have too much money, and a selfish agenda - no true information is necessary in private media. The Capitalist West and its private media is the most propagandized place in the world !

        Well state owned media is also definitely a thing. And it goes through corporations too. The state forms some lucrative ties with a corporation and convinces it to buy media establishment en masse, put them under a single umbrella and convert them to propaganda machines. The state is nowadays just another cover for some people to get extremely rich so it sort of puts everything in the same pot.
