Remarks that dehumanize Palestinians :
During the massacre of Palestinians in Israel’s operation “Swords of Iron”, Mike made a comment on Facebook using dehumanizing language to describe Palestinians.
“Look for the welcome signs of terrorists, pedophiles, child murderers, homosexual beheadings, and goat rapes,” he says. That’s where you’ll find palestinian food”.
BackGround :
Israel’s massacre in Gaza, which began on October 10, 2023, has been characterized by extreme violence and claims of war crimes. In light of the overwhelming evidence that war crimes have been committed during this most recent wave of violence, the UN Human Rights Council and UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territories stressed the need to hold those responsible for breaking international law and harming civilians accountable.
Israeli forces had been in the Gaza Strip for 49 days running as of November 24, 2023, which has added to the region’s growing humanitarian crisis. Since October 7, 2023, over 15,000 Palestinian civilians have lost their lives in Gaza, making the death toll quite high. In addition, as of November 23, 1.7 million civilians—or 80% of the population—were internally displaced within Gaza.
On the other hand, the official death toll in Israel is 1,200, with over 33% of the victims being active military personnel. Numerous civilian casualties were attributed to Israeli “scorched earth” tactics, which involved tanks shelling kibbutz civilian homes and helicopters firing machine gun and hellfire missiles randomly at people running through the fields.
