Observe Israel definitely not being an Apartheid state.

Can someone clarify for me

  • when/where was this taken

  • who are the people in “uniform” and how do you know

  • what organization published this, i don’t recognize them

So… I can’t answer your questions but is is certainly in Israel or the settlements due to the writing’s on the ads.

There is no doubt that Israel would not allow anyone but themselves to behave like that inside their own territories of control so i’d say that it is pretty safe to assume that it is an Israeli authority of some sort.

Who leaked it and when is irrelevant IMO.

I would argue with the current… state… of Israel and with the intl pressures and propaganda both who and when leaked it are quite relevant. It contains no context of who these people are (police, armed forces, paramilitary), who they are attacking (cant say I see any reason to treat the second one like that regardless), or why. It is absolutely framed as a random attack on civilians, but what is the context - is it a random attack?

Regarding who and when, there are significant propaganda campaigns on both sides and this provides considerable context. MEE was found to be editing historical videos and adding on Al Jazeera logos to make old recording look like they were Regarding events only a few hours old to spark outrage, Israel is… well being Israel… so there is much more behind this than a 32 second video viewed in Isolation.

The soldiers were not trying to arrest these men. Only bully them. They were not expecting to be hit.

The video does not leave that much room for interpretation unless you are watching on a very low resolution.

See this is the first issue I see - im arguing with someone else who calls them police, but you see them as soldiers. People can’t even identify who is who.

Right now the only thing telling me this is Israel is the title of the video, and one person telling me the signs in the back are the right language.

Perhaps one should go to the website whose address is written in the corner of the video? I struggle to find the article for this specific incident, because there seem to be over a thousand written articles, going back as far as 2009.

This does seem like a common theme with mass produced articles.

Another poster did provide quite a bit of information in one of my other comnents - it can absolutely be located to Israel/Palestine, 99% sure IDF based on uniform and all a blury patch comparison. Timing and story are up for debate, but issues can absolutely be drawn regardless of who the person is at the receiving end.

Questioning calling it evidence of Israel apartheid or individual actions, but it is a piece of a much larger puzzle.

The original post is from https://twitter.com/QudsNen/status/1785325593615032694

“Israeli occupation forces assault Palestinians passing by in the occupied city of Jerusalem.”

I think it is recent. There is Hebrew text and the video is very high definition.

From Wikipedia (Regarding Quds news network).

In short - the site is soo biased and unfavorable they have been banned by X, tiktok and Meta. They have a reputation for being used to fund militant group.

“The Jewish News Syndicate reported in 2023 that the Australian Jewish Association had criticized the site as “a notorious anti-Israel antisemitic propaganda platform affiliated with Hamas.”[9] Twitter subsequently suspended QNN’s accounts in November 2019 as part of broader actions against accounts linked to militant groups such as Hamas and Hezbollah.[10][11][12] In January 2021, TikTok banned QNN, stating that it was a move related to the account’s content.[4] Meta suspended QNN’s English and Arabic pages after the 2023 Hamas attack on Israel.”

(AP via wiki)

It also reported that while QNN says it is independent, it has a reputation of being associated with Palestinian Islamic Jihad, a militant group.

Not exactly a group I would associate with providing the full story

Propaganda bots like you fucking disgust me
