Who cares? Israeli occupiers torture and kill actual real human beings every day.

    Isis and the Taliban were created by the US too. Although admittedly, the support soon dwindled.

    North Korea is also welcoming to tourists. That doesn't make it a nice place.

    Tourism in North Korea is tightly controlled by the North Korean government. All tourism is organized by several state-owned tourism bureaus

    Interactions between foreign tourists and local people have historically been tightly controlled.[25]

    In 2024, talking to North Koreans without authorisation is considered spying (and punished as such).[24][26][c]

    Visitors are not allowed to shop elsewhere than at stores designated for foreigners.[24]

    SO friendly to tourists, Lemmy.ml users voted it no.1 best tourism spot

    btw you didn't say anything regarding ISIS controlled territory, what is their tourism policy like? free beheading on arrival?

    Lots of people aren't free to travel to Israel, millions of them in fact. You sure they will have a "good" experience when they try?

    Unlike Israelis, I've actually lived in a Muslim country, and I was perfectly fine. The only time I saw firearms was when I was at the airport arriving/leaving the country, when I ran into a Bedouin whilst in the desert, and when I saw a member of the royal family travelling and his guards had firearms.

    I had zero issues living in a Muslim country for 2 years! Now, tell me. Do Christians and Muslims get treated fairly in Israel?

    You think someone like me would get along fine in ISIS controlled Syria? How dumb do you think I am?

    The moment I say Islam is a backwards piece of shit religion started by a violent paedophile named Muhammad my head will be rolling down a hill

    i like how so far everyone has had something to say about jews but for some reason no one can bring themselves to talk about what life would be like under isis, there you go op, the idf and isis are practically the same so long as you ignore isis completely!

    Christian Americans should watch videos of Israeli children and adults spitting on and attacking Christian women just walking through the street.

    And American Christian/Nationalist evangelicals do not give one single fuck because their death cult demands that Israel be where its is and be doing what it is doing to bring about the return of Jesus so the righteous can rise into heavens and God's kingdom on Earth reign for 1000 years or some bullshit to that effect. But never mind that in the Bible it clearly states that this can not be forced and will only happen on God's time schedule.

    I have tried all my life. When you point out how it is morally wrong or that their position is against the teachings of the very Bible they claim as infallible they either look at you like you are alien or they drag their illiterate preacher over to you to help bring you back to God's path. I was raised Southern Baptist.

    I think that like in typical sect, early Christians believed the end of times is a matter of years. They were basically told "join our sect because the world is about to end and this is the only way to be saved". The message was that world will end before last of the disciples dies. Then it changed into "before everyone who was alive when Christ lived will die" which was more vague so the timeline wasn't as clear. Then it changed into "no one really knows when it will happen". Modern sects use the exact same trick.

    Jesus told His apostles that they would be alive to see His triumphant return.

    They all died, confused and bewildered.

    (or perhaps they are still walking the earth to this very day, revenant Highlander apostles are always a possibility)

    Then it changed into "no one really knows when it will happen".

    Meanwhile grifters have been predicting the exact date and time (and making money off those predictions) for centuries.

    As I said, they keep using the same trick. "Now the world is REALLY about to end. Quick! Join my sect!". Jehovah's Witnesses predicted the end of times multiple times. They claimed that only 144,000 people can go to heaven because at the beginning it looked like a number of members they will never achieve. Once they had 144,000 they had to invent some other story about second class in heaven with more places or something.

    "The IDF views the incident with great severity and emphasizes that the soldier's conduct is wholly inconsistent with the values expected of its troops."

    So smashing the head of a statue of a Palestinian man is bad, but smashing the heads of real Palestinian people is a-ok?

    Smash a Palestinian child's head open, get promoted.

    Smash a Jesus statue head open....well, don't go home.

    That's some biblical shit

    Destroy all their carved images and their cast idols, and demolish all their high places.

    Break down their altars, smash their sacred stones, cut down their Asherah poles and burn their idols in the fire.
