The IDF is a terrorist organization. Prove me wrong.

    They aren't going to let you see the unenthusiastic ones.

    Even if it were the case that they didn't want to be there, "just following orders" is not an acceptable excuse for committing a genocide. The morally correct thing to do if you're compelled to service in the IDF is to refuse and face the consequences, because they cannot be worse than the moral injury of being tasked with the murder of innocent children.

    If I was a news agency with an agenda I wouldn’t be broadcasting the interviews that are negative either. Those you will find on foreign TV channels, 10-20 years from now after those who are currently serving finish their mandatory service and immigrate elsewhere. Every once in a while some event happens which becomes difficult to cover up. Like the Pilot Letters from 2003 and 2023, but it is the exception rather then the norm.

    Counterpoint: The IDF isn't a terrorist organization; they're the Wehrmacht.

    The wehrmacht had tons of people forcibly drafted into it from occupied territories like Poland or Ukraine. People who often defected to the allies to fight against them later on. You are thinking of the SS.

    Maybe it’s because half their raps are in Gaeilge or the BBC just didn’t check, but booking Kneecap and not expecting to hear something about governments and Palestine would be like booking NWA and cutting their mics if they played Fuck the Police.

    Great job riling up the crowd for Vylan’s new chant there, genius move.

    I'll go check his songs now, just from that chant I can tell he has a way with music

    Brits are so fucking good at chants. Caught the quick rhythm and even the melody in just a bar.

    The BBC are complicit in genocide by censoring the news in favour of Israel.

    Anyone got a video of the rest of this set? Searching for it just brings up page after page of genocide apologists getting upset over the warmup.
