    Direct link to the video he's reacting to

    TL;DW: During some unspecified conflict, Hila had some kind of a desk job that she commuted to daily and found boring, and was thinking of quitting. She applied for a change of job (apparently you don't get to choose what kind of job?) and was placed at a base further away where she'd spend the week there and have the weekend off, which she found to be "more of an adventure" and "more rewarding". She was secretary for some high-ranked military official leading a brigade that controlled Ramallah. On her mission to the "terrorist city" (Ethan's words, which Hila doesn't blink an eye at), she tagged along on one of her brigades nightly "raid[s] to Ramallah to arrest terrorists." She rode in an armored "Jeep", which she says was fired upon when they entered the city, something she found "interesting." She saw soldiers going into people's houses, tearing apart all their shit to find contraband, and then arresting them (she actually got out of the car once to witness this). Ethan asks her if she found it "horrifying", to which she replies it was "strange" and "surreal."

    Just shows how completely secure Israelis feel in their domination of the occupied territories that a desk jockey treats going to terrorize some Palestinians like a field trip.

    She fucking knows, dude. She knows this shit was fucked, but also it sells well to the American hogs to tell them you’re IOF so they’re going for it. My buddy Hans let me into the camps for an “adventure “type energy. Ghouls

    God I remember being a teenager and watching a little h3h3 from time to time, they never were a favorite but they were popular and decently entertaining. I was so barely aware of Palestine that I just wouldn't have put the pieces together that Ethan and Hila weren't a simple international couple — something I considered sweet — but that Hila was rather a damned war criminal participating in 19th century settler-colonialism in the 21st century.

    Every day I feel more and more revolted by all the things I didn't notice or didn't pay attention to back then, and I feel more and more disappointed in the naïveté I had about so-called "Israelis" for so long.

    Idgaf about h3h3 or badempanada so this isn't normally the kind of thing I'd watch, but I had some time to kill at work here and that shit was way more disgusting than I expected

    These fuckers are so much dumber and more evil than I could have imagined
