Posting this to help stop the lies being spread everywhere, including DU. NSFW

I’ve just watched the 40-minute compiled GoPro footage from Oct 7th.

There are babies being abducted while their murdered parents lie on the ground, grandparents begging for their lives before being executed, children begging for their lives before being executed, charred bodies with their final grimacing expressions, naked bodies of young men and women being mutilated and spat on, disemboweled bodies, heads being decapitated from their bodies, half burnt bodies of naked women with their legs left intentionally spread open, family pets are executed, entire communities are decimated, homes are looted by triumphant thieves... it’s ghastly. But what struck me the most is how personal it all is. They’re face to face with their victims, looking right at them. And they’re not cold or indifferent about it either, they’re excited by it? They genuinely take pleasure in taunting their victims until their last breath. It’s all so unbelievably inhumane.

To those who continue to spread lies and justify Oct 7th, may God have mercy on you and your rotten souls.

ETA - the link works fine, the poster added a second step to see the pictures.

1. There can never be justification or any excuse (nor anything but horror) for what happened Oct 7 in Israel.

That said I have not seen DUers doing so. Discussions I have observed on DU focus on issues in the more recent months from now.

But I understand the pain as the anniversary approaches. I feel horrible for families seeing the video recently released. I'm not sure how they can heal with that forever in their minds.

2. Most of the antisemitic posts are deleted.

That's why you don't see them. I'm not allowed to name the posters I'm referring to, per DU ToS.

3. Are antisemitic posts not against the rules here?

I feel like they should result in a ban just like if someone was not a democrat.

4. "No bigotry/Insensitivity" alert would include antisemitism.

5. I don't think anyone can justify Oct 7 and continue to be a member of DU

To me, it would qualify as a flagrant violation of the rule against bigotry (and of course it would be pro-killing of innocents) which would result in an instant ban.

6. So an open discussion on the good/bad sides of the situation will be heavily censored?

OK, count me out.
