    This is kind of interesting actually. It suggests that Israel’s propaganda department (or whoever set this up) is stuck so far up their own ass that they think the only reason someone would go against them is because they don’t know how “evil” Hamas is. Reminds of a certain early 20th century central european nation, and how they treated their own nationalism and expansionist projects…

    Though I imagine this “horror footage” is going to be play at insanely loud volumes 24/7 to deprive them of sleep. And them saying it will teach them about the horrors of Hamas is just an excuse the western media will parrot when in actuality it is just going to be used as a torture method to force them to sign some documents that state that Hamas is evil and they were wrong to support Gaza and Israel is completely innocent of any wrongdoing. Israel is going to do whatever they can, no matter how fucked up, to try and turn this to their advantage. It will be obvious that any admission of “wrongdoing” here will be under extreme duress, but the western media is never going to report that side of things.

      My unqualified opinion:

      Nobody in Israel thinks the snuff film is going to change the flotilla people’s mind. Its just an excuse to show them a snuff film as a form of torture.

    This is the footage they refuse to release because they know the internet will tear it to pieces but it works nicely in private showings where nothing can be scrutinised afterwards.

    Put in the eye speculums or it gets the hose again.

    Note: I’m too lazy to google to confirm the validity of this Reddit quote. I am anyway.

    The eye clamps were used prior for delicate eye surgeries. They are only supposed to be used on patients that are lying down, but Kubrick insisted that McDowell be sitting up slightly, which in turn caused him excruciating pain and the tearing of one of his corneas.

    Atrocities against women, the elderly, and children?

    Hamas isn’t commiting atrocities against working aged men? Seems like an exploitable weakness to me.

    I would wager that pretty much everyone on that flotilla has had their fill of TikToks directly showing the raw results of what Israel’s been doing in Gaza for the last year and a half. They’ll either recognize the footage and say “no that was you guys” or it’ll be a relative snoozefest.

    Cool, are they going to show her the footage of the helicopters over Sderot or the tanks in Kfar Aza and Kibbutz Be’eri that day? Because I thought they were really sensitive about October 7 footage.
