I don’t understand this narrative. If Hamas was as dismissive of the well being of the hostages as Israel is, there would have been no hostages left after a week.
Hamas wants to keep the hostages alive and reasonably well so they can use them to trade for the Palestinians being held hostage and (we know) are being tortured by Israel and hopefully stop the Israeli aggression atleast temporarily.
They wouldn’t have taken them just to ignore and/or kill them for no reason.
I wonder what North Koreans would think if they knew there was a “debate” on if it’s acceptable to kidnap and hold them against their will…they’d probably understand why their govt is so careful and isolationist when it comes to the west.
Kidnapping is based with North Koreans if it means giving them a better, happier and healthier life
So as long as you believe you’ll give them a better life you can kidnap them? Isn’t that the logic north Korea themselves use to to isolate from the rest of the world?
So the north Korea can’t use this logic to ban western influence but you can use it to kidnap people from a foreign nation and thats justified?
let these particular athletes escape what will inevitably be a death sentence for taking a picture with the South Koreans.
And you’re basing this “inevitable death sentence” off of what?
An article, citing another article hosted by a “news agency” which is a NED/South Korean government United propaganda project, and cites “anonymous sources” who says they could have to publicly denounce the action?
Are you just clueless or what? Kim has enslaved their entire nation with an iron fist.
Meanwhile you’re ready to advocate for the kidnapping of people from another country to save them based on nothing.
Pure white saviourism, as I said, people wonder how people allowed colonialism to happen…
I’m sure you’re totally right and I meant that as islamophobia and not a shot at Christians.
And I’m saying, what is the shot at Christians, if not “you’re being like Muslims”?
After all, you’re always right about what you think other people think, right?
And here’s the right wing crying about “thought crimes!” aspect. Your secret personal intentions dont matter, you said what you said. Just like when a racist Republican tries to excuse saying the N word because they “had no ill intentions”.
I despise the misogyny of both religions equally.
So is this an admission that you were using Sharia Law as a negative to compare project 2025 to and that you view Sharia Law as inherently misogynistic? If not then what’s the point of bringing this up?
Really?
It was a dig at the same people calling for “Christian law” that would vehemently decry “Islamic law”
? Because it reads to me more like it’s YOU directly decrying Sharia Law and trying to associate them with it.
Project 2025 puppetmasters will take that up by an order of magnitude as they create a new Sharia law environment and distance the rest of the world even further.
You literally state that they want to create a “new Sharia Law environment” as a negative with no qualifications or explanation.
They aren’t trying to create Sharia Law, they are Americans trying to create American authoritarian nationalism.
You don’t get to use islamophobia to “dig at” people who are islamophobic as well. You’re just spreading and circle jerking islamophobia as a “gotcha” which only hurts innocent Muslims who have to face the repercussions.
Edit: But of course, downvote and insult for opposing random islamophbia. You’re totally not in the same boat as Republicans who act like being called racist/sexist is a bigger problem than racism/sexism itself and lash out.
I’m just really not looking forward to when the pogroms pop up here like in Britain recently thanks to the constant pushing of this sentiment.
Almost like the system who’s logic you are using is flawed…
Nice random islamophobia. You see people in the US who hate Muslims and Islam doing authoritarianism in an America way and immediately jump to “this is just like Islam!”?
Do you even know what Sharia Law is?
Unfortunately, anti-islam sentiment is increasingly one of those bipartisan issues…
Ok, and who is the daily NK and what is their source?
The source is “anonymous sources”, and the daily nk is a US-South Korean joint propaganda project.
Kidnapping is based when the west does it to Asian?
Then you wonder how colonialism happened…
They saw it as a threat according to who?
Table tennis champions said to be in ‘cleanse from exposure to contamination’ following podium picture with opponents
Ri Jong Sik and Kim Kum Yong, who won silver medals, are said to be undergoing “ideological evaluation” along with other athletes who returned from the Paris Games.
the Daily NK reported.
Citing anonymous official sources in Pyongyang, the news outlet, which specialises in North Korean affairs
Hmmm…
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daily_NK
Daily NK is a recipient of funding from multiple institutions and private donors, including the National Endowment for Democracy,[4] an NGO funded by the U.S. Congress. Daily NK’s president is Lee Kwang-baek.
The organization is part of a consortium with the Unification Media Group, which is a South Korea–based non-profit organization that produces and delivers radio content into North Korea via short-wave radio broadcasts.
So it’s a NED funded propaganda network controlled by Lee Kwang-baek
https://www.dailynk.com/english/author/lee-kwang-baek/
Lee Kwang Baek has served as Daily NK’s president since 2014 alongside his role as president of Unification Media Group. He is an advisor to the Korea Hana Foundation
https://koreahana.or.kr/home/eng/contents.do?menuPos=2
The Korea Hana Foundation(KHF) is a non-profit public organization established by Ministry of Unification in 2010. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ministry_of_Unification
The Ministry of Unification (Korean: 통일부; Hanja: 統一部) is an executive department of the South Korean government
So the source for this story is another story citing “anonymous sources”, and that original story is from a US-South Korea joint propaganda project?
Nice.
There’s a reason Israel would rather kill their own people than let them be taken hostage and then don’t care to rescue them after they’ve been taken.
Stories like this completely destroy their dehumanization narratives.
Today’s Democrats are yesterday’s Republicans, that’s always been the purpose of the party.
Ratchet effect.
Funny how it was “Russia did it Russia did it!” And now that we know it wasn’t Russia its “who cares who did it! You’re missing the point!”.
You can’t convince yesterday’s colonizer that today’s colonizer is wrong.
Turns out when you refuse to make progress you get left behind…
Could they confirm that she had all her organs?..
This doesn’t even count their unfairly extracted labour value.
Which politicians are good people?
Yes, you obviously don’t care about North Koreans, you just like the idea of “punishing” their government by kidnapping their people…
