Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.

The unfriendly skies: On United, your checked bags might be riding alongside some tank parts bound for Israel.

United Airlines is set to resume the shipment of military hardware to Israel aboard passenger flights, according to shipping data reviewed by The Intercept. The airline, one of the biggest in the world, had halted the practice more than six months ago amid the outbreak of the war on Iran.

On Wednesday evening, United is scheduled to transport five shipments of military cargo onboard United Airlines flight 90, a passenger route from Newark Liberty International Airport, in New Jersey, to Tel Aviv, Israel, a day after resuming the route and another direct flight to Israel, records show.

Using open-source methods to find publicly accessible cargo documents, researchers with the Movement Research Unit — a group that provides investigative muscle for left-wing groups and causes — said they tracked 2,761 shipments to weapons manufacturers transported by United aboard 160 civilian passenger flights between July 24, 2025, and February 27, 2026.

Like KHamasspitals except there's actually weapons in the United Airlines and none in the Khamasspitals

Every accusation.

Why do you say "khamasspitals"?

This does not answer my question. Why the k? Why all one word?

They're mocking the way zionist propagandists speak by exaggerating it.

For some reason, native Hebrew speakers apparently can't pronounce the "ha" sound without a k sound in front of it, and they tend to prolong and exaggerate the "mas" part at the end as a way of signifying scorn.

Such is the groupthink of Zionism that native English speaker Hasbarists with no such pronunciation difficulties often copy this in order to sound "authentically" bigoted towards the people they're dehumanizing.

Ohhh! Thank you for explaining! I see how that was funny ridicule now. I love making fun of zionists

Go look up the video of the guy who made the calendar video.

[–] Mandarbmax@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago) (1 children)

The what video? How do I look that up? I have no idea what you are talking about. Can you link it for me?

Dude what is your problem?

[–] Taldan@lemmy.world 1 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Avoiding the question is suspicious. Is it some dog whistle for a hate group or something? Why would you not just answer the question?

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml -3 points 12 hours ago

Dogwhistling is a term frequently used Zionists to slander people for opposing Israel. Are you a Zionist?
