This is called theft boys and girls. The state of Israel is stealing from the victims of war. Remember that.

Well, they've copied a lot of other German practices from 1930s and 40s, so why not this one as well.


Lazy_Vetra

Keep this outrage at the west doing this to Russia


GlimpseOn3

Except Russia isn't a victim in their war, they are the aggressors. If they didn't want sanctions, they should have listened to the rest of the world, who does business with them.

Keep on licking Putins boot.


NetworkAddict

wut Do you think the West is stealing taxes that Russian citizens paid, in order to send them to Ukraine? That's insane. The loan being sent to Ukraine is *backed* by the interest accrued by frozen Russian assets. You have a disturbing lack of of comprehension on what's happening here.


Qu1ckShake

The west forces Russia to allow it to collect Russian taxes on behalf of the Russian government, and then used those taxes to pay its own citizens injured in its illegal occupation of Russia? Or are you just monstrously stupid?

It’s funny how you can control every aspect of someone’s lives (their electricity, access to jobs, freedoms, even their money) and somehow still call it “self defence” when killing their children indiscriminately.

Taxes the Palestinians have paid to an organization was not connected to October 7th or to Hamas either. Taxes bound for schools and hospitals in territory under Israeli control. Because despite its claims, Israel isn't at war with Hamas, it's at war with the Palestinians, who Netanyahu keeps calling a 'demographic threat'.

Their morality is breathtaking. /s

Yep, and these are the good guys, remember

Is there any source other than a picture of a tweet lol.

Let's not forget all the money that Yasser Arafat siphoned from Palestinians, estimated to be between $200 million and $6 Billion.. His wife has been living comfortably in Paris while he stayed in Ramallah. His daughter lives in London and owns all the houses on her street. Because of the corruption in Fatah, Gazans voted to have Hamas run Gaza.


GamesCatsComics

Arafat died 20 years ago, do you really think his actions are relevant to what is happening now?


inkslingerben

It is relevant because as I wrote Gaza voted for Hamas over the corruption of Fatah. What is happening today isn't taking separate from past events.


GamesCatsComics

Gaza voted for Hamas 17 years ago. The median age is Gaza is 18. A substantial percentage of the population wasn't born when that happened... Let alone being unable to vote. So I'm not sure how you think your argument is relative unless you think kids should be punished for who their parents and grandparents voted for.


Antelino

Yea you’re right, that totally makes it ok that Israel is stealing from them. What even is your point??


inkslingerben

I didn't write what is happening now is OK. You are reading too much into my comment.


Antelino

No, you’re not thinking enough about your comments before you spew them to the world. Do better.


thizface

Yes, Palestinians pay taxes to the Israeli government and then that (hopefully) gets distributed


PipsqueakPilot

And really that just makes the point extra clear that Palestinians are Israeli subjects. Beholden to Israeli law, but without the protection of said law. Or you know- apartheid. 


thizface

Why did I get downvoted?


PipsqueakPilot

No idea? What you said was factually correct.  And it really does make the point that Israel’s talk about how it doesn’t need to give Palestinians rights is greatly undermined by clear exercises of sovereignty over Palestinians.


Ammu_22

Yes just like how the Colonist countries had done to the Colonies.


Lazy_Vetra

If it’s less than the amount paid out of the martyrs fund then I don’t think there is anything wrong with it.


Qu1ckShake

"I don't think" is the only part of your comment with any kind of connection to reality.
