asside, checked ADL, they treat her as if she's Hitler incarnate for talking truth, then checked Elon Musk's page on the ADL, practically nothing, no mention of his Hitler salutes, or that his AI is promoting Hitler and attacking jews.

ADL is a fucking joke

[–] tektite@slrpnk.net 8 points 6 days ago

ADL put spez on their tech advisory board apparently back in 2017. So I guess they've been a fucking joke for a while.

Terrorism and antisemitism only mean thinking Palestinians are human. The more you think that Palestinians are expendable, the more you can be accepted by the US government.

Couldn't they frame this without the angry bearded Arab vs smiling white woman?

[–] theluckyone@discuss.online 6 points 6 days ago

Ex-wife hated my beard, said it made me look always angry. Still don't think the beard was the issue.

When I've let my mustache grow in I've been told I exuded porn star energy.

I shaved it off immediately. I'm NOT my father!

[–] TrojanRoomCoffeePot@lemmy.world 34 points 1 week ago (2 children)

That's just resting beard face.

[–] Lojcs@piefed.social 4 points 6 days ago

The other person also said they didn't look angry to them so that could be just me. His eyebrows are angled downward and I think that's what makes him look upset to me.

He doesn't really look angry to me. And he does have a beard and is Arab so those seem like things that will be in every picture of him.

I'm sure hos photo is from the wanted list and hers is from her bio somewhere, but the juxtaposition just serves to magnify the point.

[–] Lojcs@piefed.social 14 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

This is not an image that just comes up if you search him. Oop chose to have this image instead of him in a suit with a kept beard.

Edit: also amplify which fucking point, that people with messy facial hair in headscarves are terrorists?

Edit 2: look at my bias with the messy part, sub in 'longer'

Add to that ICC chief prosecutor Karim Khan who has already been sanctioned by the US back in February for the crime of issuing an arrest warrant for a war criminal.

Guy on the left is an (ostensible) ally of Israel

Woman on the right is not.

Seems pretty straightforward to me.

He cut off Iran's supply to Hasbulla in Lebanon, cut off Iran's reach to Israel, gave Israel extra strategic lands, let Israel destroy all previous regime's Russian/Iranian military equipments and now he has announced normalizing relations with Israel.

Then US immediately rewarded him with investments and aid contracts from the other dictatorship gulf countries, who are good dictatorships btw they say USA Good. They invest in the US, ONLY allowed to buy US defense contracts, tie their currencies to the US dollar ONLY and basically keep all their country resources under the exploitation of the US for the mere beautiful American/Western-values sponsored cost of emprovishing and beheading their citziens every fucking month for talking on twitterz and depriving them of human rights :D

Sanctioning albanese is an abomination.

it's not true to say al jolani was the founder of al qaeda. He was a part of jabhat al nusra which was affiliated with al qaeda. They split over disagreements and actually wiped al qaeda from Syria.

Whether he's actually a terrorist is hard to say because the US designates any group it doesnt like as that.

ISIS are the good guys now.

We have always been at war with the UN Special Rapporteur.

War is Peace.

Rojava is fighting ISIS, and to support them, NATO are fighting Rojava, because God forbid there's a feminist state in the middle east.

And why are the pictures relevant? Because Middle Eastern men are terrorists by default, and attractive women are pure of heart?

[–] Mrkawfee@lemmy.world 23 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (4 children)

Jolani is literally an Al Qaeda commander who is now the dictator, sorry, President of Syria. His thugs are massacring Christians, Druze and Alawites in the same way as his ISIS brothers were doing.

But he is now the darling of the West because he isn't pro Palestinian and kisses Trumps ring.

Wow, let's top discrimination by being racist.

Both can be good or bad independent of their outward appearance.

[–] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 17 points 1 week ago (6 children)

He's projecting the same orientalism back at the empire to illustrate a point. It was never about wearing a beard. Or even about joining ISIS.

It was about not being a politically advantageous ally to the US empire.
