Why post this? I agree it’s a weird framing for a US outlet but I’ve also seen these throwaway articles for Dutch or other nationalities when disasters happen.
Please don’t make light of people suffering in a (totally unrelated) situation, simply because they’re Israeli?
okay but they had israeli citizenship and were living in a beachside condo in Miami odds are they were wrapped up in something bad like training SilverCorp mercenaries and were not good people
Or they were retirees or literally anything else citizens of countries are doing living in Miami… like, what?
I’m not here to speculate on who they were, and that’s kind of the issue with celebrating the suffering of people who haven’t been identified at all except for some national signifier. Any presumption right now is wishful thinking to justify some frankly shitty reactions.

so how about the idf showin up?
What about it. Look up Israeli disaster relief efforts in the past, particularly building collapses. Kenya, Ghana, Mexico, etc. in the last 10 years.
If anything having them clearing rubble halfway across the world is a lot better than having them patrolling the West Bank.
