This is so unbelievably on the nose that I actually thought it was an onion-esque article.

Nope. It's real. https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/reservist-eulogized-for-desire-to-take-revenge-against-gazans-setting-home-on-fire-to-boost-morale/

    During the recent funeral of an IDF reservist who was killed fighting in Lebanon, his loved ones eulogized him as someone who was determined to take revenge against Gazans, even women and children, and who allegedly set a home in the Strip on fire without authorization from his superiors in order to cheer up his fellow soldiers.

    “You entered Gaza (after Hamas’s October 7, 2023, onslaught) to take revenge — as much as possible. [Against] women, children — everyone you saw. As much as possible. That’s what you wanted,” said Uriah Ben-Natan, the brother of 22-year-old Sgt. First Class (res.) Shuvael Ben-Natan, from the northern West Bank settlement of Rehelim.

    Holy fuck death to all of these freaks.

      Yeah I read that part of the eulogy and then read a zionazi's defense of it as just something said emotionally at the moment.

      I've never been to a soldier's funeral but do folks back home say this kind of stuff during euologies? (I mean we know they engage in that behavior, but I don't think they casually bring it up during funerals)

        Whom amongst us hasn't praised a dead relatives love of doing war crimes at a funeral in the heat of the moment?

        Absolutely no other eulogy laments the fallen soldier no longer being able to shoot women or children.

    https://xcancel.com/ireallyhateyou/status/1850437633312231681 This thread has videos of some of those quotes. His brother whining that "...we thought we will massacre the enemy, massacre everyone, that we will expell them all from this land, we are here on your funeral." Literally at his brother's funeral and he's thirsting for the blood of every Arab child in the entire region. Beyond barbaric.

      The brother laments that he can no longer shoot unarmed women and children in the face. The brother doesn't even try to dress that up with "Palestinian." He specifically mentions women and children. I guess we can see what happens when he tries to face the men lmao

    when people say it's bad to dehumanize settlers or nazis, remember they they've already done it to themselves

    I can't wait for the historians to document the systematic indoctrination of fascism for generations into the Zionazis.
