How often do countries deny responsibility for assassinations conducted halfway around the world?

[–] stink@lemmygrad.ml 25 points 1 day ago (1 children)

If Tuvalu had to claim they didn't dome JFK I'd be awfully suspicious

[–] miz@hexbear.net 24 points 1 day ago

this would be an incredible bit

Nick Mullen becomes foreign minister for a tiny county in the global south and they begin loudly and ostentatiously denying responsibility for every single assassination and terrorist attack that occurs worldwide

The more times he repeats it, the more believable it gets

My "Israel did not kill Charlie Kirk" T-shirt has people asking a lot of questions already answered by my shirt.

You know, I didn't think they did but now I'm starting to doubt that assumption.

prime spot for the usage of this awful meme

Nobody:

Israel: We did not kill Charlie Kirk!

[–] D61@hexbear.net 36 points 1 day ago

You know... the first two times Netanyahu made a statement saying he didn't do it I believed him.

This third time Netanyahu made a statement about not killing Chuckie K. is making me rethink my previous opinion.

So uhhh, does this mention that he led off with a Goebbels quote?

[–] WellTheresYourCobbler@hexbear.net 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He starts off with quoting goebbels about how a big lie can spread quickly or whatever

[–] Justice@lemmygrad.ml 21 points 1 day ago

No one said you did, bro.

Now I'm beginning to wonder why they doth protest so much

them putting out this video definitely makes me more inclined to believe they did something

[–] Skye@hexbear.net 28 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

They are actively trying to stoke antisemitism in the US, I literally see no other reason for some of the things Israel has been doing in terms of PR. Might as well do a little wink when someone asks you if you killed Charlie Kirk

Like, surely statements like this are just meant to set conservatives up to point at the open pro-Israel lobby in the US, the obvious corruption via AIPAC and Netanyahu holding press events in the US etc, because I don't think the kind of person who believes Qatar secretly pays American rightwingers to be anti-Israel actually exists

[–] pinkapple@lemmy.ml 19 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Or they're panicking about a possible takeover of the GOP by the anti-Israeli nazi faction currently exploiting this and pushing conspiracy theories to make the dominant Christian-zionist faction as unpopular as possible. Some people on the anti-Zionist kinda-left like Blumenthal and Galloway are also pushing this theory to the point of saying bizarre shit like Kirk being "presidential", a possible future successor to Trump etc. It's ends justify the means opportunism.

[–] Skye@hexbear.net 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I guess so, looking in from the outside it just seems like addressing things like this is actively counterproductive to dispelling the conspiracy theory haha

[–] pinkapple@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

GOP nazi infighting over conspiracy theories instead of focusing against trans people like the Christian faction initially wanted is epic and should not be messed with. At the same time though a possible takeover of the GOP by the nazi wing like Bannon etc may be way worse long term.

The surreal irony is that Tyler was such a lukewarm wildcard that he may have huge negotiating power and regardless of his real motives, even with basic lawyer support he could threaten to publicly claim that he was a groyper or an Israeli asset in exchange for all sorts of stuff. He's already heading for the death penalty so what are they gonna do? Kill him earlier by suicide and convince everyone that it was really a conspiracy? He can even play dumb during the trial and do some tell all interview afterwards if he doesn't get a lighter sentence.

So this may also be preemptive damage control by GOP pawns and Israel in case Tyler does one or the other, which also looks suspicious and "confirms" conspiracy theories. I love it.

Idk, I think I take the Nazis over the Apocalypse Enjoyers. The Nazis want to live in a white ethnostate, the Christians want everyone on earth to die

[–] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 21 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Israel is poking the bee hive. It might not be prudent of them but they caught the fascism tiger by the tail so they’re locked on this course for now.

[–] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

They know what they're doing

Man.... I found out yesterday that im only two degrees of separation from Bibi.

I will not mention how or why publicly because it will dox me and that actually sucks because it's very fucking obvious upon hindsight.

[–] Enjoyer_of_Games@hexbear.net 31 points 1 day ago (2 children)
  1. Bibi
  2. Mossad Handler
  3. Feinsteins_Ghost
  4. Charlie Kirk
[–] Feinsteins_Ghost@hexbear.net 12 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Im really bummed.

My fingers keeps typing shit and I keep reading it and I can't figure out how to be vague about it because if I explain any of it- the setting, the items that clued me in, or the context for being there I will absolutely give myself away. It is too specific in any context.

[–] mudpuppy@hexbear.net 17 points 1 day ago (2 children)

you can tell me. sure there are some bad apples but i joined to fix the system from the inside

[–] Feinsteins_Ghost@hexbear.net 16 points 1 day ago

My handler says to tell your handler to call him

[–] pinkapple@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 day ago

Are we the baddies?

The important thing is that you brought the fertilizer fedposting

[–] TankieTanuki@hexbear.net 7 points 1 day ago
  1. Bibi
  2. Diane Feinstein
  3. Feinsteins_Ghost

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

If it makes you feel any better, anyone that'd met a national level politician is likely only one or few degrees separate from bibi as well. Like if I ever met one of my state's senators because they're running around trying to fish for votes in an election year, I myself would be officially one degree separate from bibi, and a whole lot of other people, just from that interaction.

And if it's something more personal, just remember you're your own person

[–] Feinsteins_Ghost@hexbear.net 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

This person is in his employ. That's all I'll say.

[–] Meltyheartlove@hexbear.net 5 points 1 day ago

a) 2 degrees hotter or colder than portland

b) horseshoe seperated by 2 degrees

c) He lives below the seperation distance of 2 dig reeds

d) 2 degrees of seperation, if you seperate 2 degrees you get one degree and since degree starts with d ..... i go one option before or after d and since d is the last option the answer has to be c

[–] dkr567@hexbear.net 14 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

I wasn't even thinking Israel but now with the modern day Hitler making more noise about this + him being the first politician freak that tweeted about Charlie being shot (even before Trump), I wonder if they did it as some combination of strategy of tensions and Kirk doing something to piss off the zionist lobby.

Could just be jangling keys in people's faces to get them focused on something else, Israel murders people for a lot less.

You know what? I believe ‘em.
