“Castrate them!” “Burn them!” “Bullet in the head!”: Facebook Israelis react to photo of Palestinian kids

Having regularly documented the horrifying racism and violent fantasies frequently expressed by Israelis on Facebook or Instagram, I thought I had seen everything.

But this may be the worst yet. On Wednesday, the picture above of three Palestinian boys in a tent was posted on a popular Facebook page titled in Hebrew “We are all in favor of death to terrorists.” Under the picture is the following caption:

Arab boys in the illegal Arab outpost established near Maale Adumim. What should the Israeli army do to them?

This is an apparent reference to the peaceful “Bab al-Shams” encampmentestablished by Palestinians near Jerusalem to protest Israel’s plans to seize more land for settlements. The protest was timed to coincide with the visit of US PresidentBarack Obama.

“Run the tent over with a truck/Merkava tank/a bus/ whatever it takes to crush and kill these children,” suggested Facebook user Lidor Swisa

“May you die garbage Arabs, amen!”

This is only a small selection of the representative and typical comments posted under the picture of the three boys in the tent.

“Disgusting. Burn the tent” - Oriel Diller

“Eliminate” - Zevika Gvirz

“Artillery training ‘mistake’ ” - Igor Gonopolskiy

“Burn them” - Yaron Gringauz

“May you die garbage Arabs, amen!” - Shahar Dayan

“Run them over and shoot them. It’s not complicated!” - Elad Sender

“Take the tent with the people in it, put it on a trailer and dump them back where they came from” - Sharon Carmi

“A hand grenade inside the tent!” - Dvir Dagan

“Put a couple of bullets in their heads and we’re done” - Adi Maman

“Set them on fire” - Yosef Porotzky

“Fuck them” - Aria Yehudai

A minority of users objected to these pervasive comments. Lilach Lilush, said, “Excuse me … I disagree… what do you mean ‘eliminate?’ What are we, an arm of Hamas or Hizballah? We are more enlightened. We should just return them safely where they came from.”

OH HEY LOOK AT THAT WE HAVE ANOTHER RAPE CASE WITH FOOTBALL PLAYERS SEXUALLY ASSAULTING 13-YEAR OLD GIRLS AND NO ONE IS TALKING ABOUT IT AND TRYING TO COVER IT UP

HERE’S THE STORY! LET’S BLOW IT THE FUCK UP!

WHAT THE HELL

Two 18-year-old football players raped a 13-year-old girl, and the athletics director says they “aren’t that different from any other community.” Cruelly, painfully true.

Trigger warning for the article - they quote a number of shitheads on Twitter blaming the victim. Tweet about this with #OpRaider.
