Israeli soldiers used 80-year-old Gazan as human shield, then killed him.

LoL. You can’t make this shit up.

But "Death to Germany" would be if the idea was to kill or displace the majority of German.

Could you perhaps link to the modlogs? I would do it myself but I'm on mobile and am having connection issues.

Sure, and "happy birthday" would be a genocidal statement if the idea was to kill or displace the majority of Scottish.

EDIT: I apperently commented 4 times despite the app saying there was an error posting.
Anyway here's the link to the modlog and part of the comment:...if anyone attacked my country as Palenstine did Isreal i would not be happy until all the hostages was freed and the ones responsible was dead.
I can see where @[email protected] was coming from if you interpret "the ones responsible" as all Palestinians it certainly sounds like genocide, however I think you were probably referring to Hamas.

I thought that 972 is an Israeli magazine, would love if you could give sources for your claim.
-
Well, they are getting us used to tolerating mass genocide
-
The intention matters, yes.
What would "Death to Palestine" mean to you? Is it a call for violence against Palestinians or is it a weird way to tell "Merry Christmas" ?
-
"Death to Palestine" is exactly what is happening, right along with "death to Palestinians". You are both-sidesing an active genocide. FOH.
-
Exactly. He can say death to Israel but if you say the same sentence with the other place you’re banned
-
"Islamic extremist"? This magazine was founded and is currently operated by Israeli jews. What are you on about?
-
"Death to [geographical place]" shouldn't be said by anyone. However it's meant, it's way too easy for people to take literally, and it provides cover for the few that actually do mean literal harm. Maybe you mean "down with Israel," but even that can be taken the wrong way. (Much like saying "down with [monarch]" would historically be understood to mean that monarch should die as opposed to stepping down.)
-
Within a German context that particular actually rather means death of the national idea, cf. Slime's Deutschland muss sterben, "Germany must die", which, as correctly recognised by the constitutional court, expresses a counterpoint to the Prussian/Nazi militaristic parole "We must die, so Germany may live". The song, taking up sentiment that the court traces back to at least 1844, turns that around into "Germany must die so we may live", reaffirming individual (and regional) freedom in the face of an encroaching normative force of "Germanness".
You don't often see a constitutional court getting into analysis of a punk song but when it happens, well, it's glorious. And Nazis loathe that sentiment. Two years ago the Bundestag had a debate about regional and minority languages, the AfD was incapable of finding a single parliamentarian of theirs who spoke any. The thing is that while they're the ones shouting loudest about "protecting German culture", they're the last ones actually valuing any culture from anywhere in Germany -- they want to replace everything with their own ideas, and German nationalism has been like that since pretty much forever. So, yes, Germany must die.
-
I really don't care how you take my opposition to a genocidal state. The crimes of Israel demand a much stronger international response than they are getting. You can cry about my tone but I think strong language is warranted. Hear me again: I do not want all "Israelis" killed. I want the state of "Israel" itself destroyed.
-
All I'm saying is that you should say what you mean then (as you did in this reply), and not what can very easily be used against you.
-
You do you, I'll do me.
-
It was less "the ones responsible" and more "appropriate response".
The appropriate response to 1,200 deaths is not to kill between 50,000 and 70,000 innocent civilians and state on multiple occasions "there are no innocent Palestinians".
You don't respond to war crimes with even bigger war crimes.
-
That's the spirit.
Don't let these people take away our teeth and claws.
