https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nimrod_Aloni

Here is his Wikipedia article.

Aloni has been behind many of the war crimes and air strikes in Gaza and the Gaza Strip, and he is also a head advisor to the IDF for military incursions into Palestinian territory.

Aloni was also the architect and general behind Israel’s 2021 “Operation: Guardian of the Walls”, which killed and wounded an estimated 4,000-5,000 Palestinians, and displaced 72,000+ Palestinian civilians.

The Depth Corps is a unit specialising in operations against Hamas, Hezbollah, and Palestinian Islamic Jihad. They were behind many of the Mosque bombings, forced evictions, air strikes, and terror attacks on Palestinian civilians over the past two decades. The unit is currently in shambles and is being reformed behind the lines.

Nimrod

Lol, accurate naming

I know this keeps getting brought up in every one of these posts, but Nimrod is actually a Biblical/Torah name of a king listed as a "mighty hunter" in Genesis. It coming to mean dumb or a moron is due to a Looney Tunes cartoon where Bugs Bunny calls Elmer Fudd Nimrod sarcastically. The intent of the comedy was that Elmer was a terrible hunter being mocked by the contrast, but since most people don't know niche Biblical characters, they just assumed it was one of Bugs Bunny's stock jokes calling Elmer stupid.

Just a fun fact and explanation as to why you will find Jews named Nimrod.

Palestine

A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.

Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.

Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.

We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose "defence force"'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.
