The attacks on Deir Mimas Monastery, Holy Family Parish, and Porphyrius Church highlight a disregard for the sanctity of religious spaces by the apartheid regime, and the lives of those who seek refuge within their walls.

    I can’t hate Israel anymore, my hate already went up to 11. Even some of our waffling liberals who were misled into believing Israel was a democracy are being turned off. Israel is creating enemies faster than it can murder them and not just in the “collar nations”.

    Israel is making sure it will always be a hated pariah. The young generations that didn’t witness 1948 or 1967 have witnessed 2023 and the spirit to resist has been renewed.

      Perhaps the only ‘benefit’ of this evil is that the irony isn’t going unheeded and Israel is distinguishing itself from the diaspora en bloc.

    For context, this building was destroyed in the 2006 second Lebanese war when Hezbollah militia was using it as cover. It was supposedly rebuilt in 2009 but it yet again is being occupied by Hezbollah.

    You guys should wait for credible sources before you say anything.

      That this kind of attack is so expected as to not even cause doubt says as much about Israel’s reputation of inflicting terror as it does about the critical reading of lemmy users.

    This historic site underwent several restorations, with the most recent reconstruction starting in 2008, funded by Qatar, following its total demolition during the 2006 Israeli war on Lebanon.

    Anything funded by Qatar has me suspicious.
