Nikki Haley writes ‘Finish Them!’ on Israeli bomb bound for Gaza

I mean to be fair, there’s nothing you can write on a bomb that makes it better

“Hope this message finds you well”

“Tell your mother I said thank you for the birthday card”

“Save 10% at checkout when you enter the code FREEPALESTINE”

I don't think people write on bombs to make it better, it's to add insult to injury death

This old picture has the writing "Easter eggs for Hitler" on the bombs. I think the use case makes the biggest difference for whether writing a message is perceived as sinister. A bomb which is being sent to someone who has been confirmed to regularily attack civilian targets is not great.

That's very funny.

I wonder what the earliest example is of someone writing messages on outbound projectile weapons, or if there are any examples of messages being received, in other words, like if a bomb with a message on it turn out to be a dud and landed in the general's kitchen or something.

Probsbly some good material would come to you. You ever write jokes?

How very turn the other cheek of her

Yet more evidence that the average Republican's adherence to the teachings of Christianity is purely performative.

On the other hand, her faith in Mortal Kombat appears to be genuinely sincere.

That's not what the Republican Jesus says

I'm never going to be on the side of Hamas, but there's no need to make a mockery of something that will surely involves civilian casualties. Shame on her.

Yeah, lots of people did similar things for Ukrainian bombs and shells. Even though they were much more likely to hit combatants, it still felt really weird to write memes on stuff that likely will kill someone (yes even a Russian war criminal). It just felt inhumane.

Reported as a duplicate, and, yeah, it is, but from a different source. Technically should be removed but the additional engagement makes it keep-worthy.

Different sources gives different details that other source may have hidden in order to fit their agenda

She hates those kids running away in ambulances. It's very important for her to let the kids know how much she would like them to be finished.

Nobody wants to see those kids die more than Hamas. It is pan-Islamism's strongest weapon against the world's western democracies. These kids are victims of a religious cult that put them in harm's way on purpose. The bomb is actually for Hamas, not the kids.

Nobody wants to see those kids die more than Hamas.

So Nikki Haley is in agreement with Hamas and supporting the thing they want?

LMAO same in Ukraine civilian casualities are to blame on nazi ukrainian not russian sending bombs

Ukraine is a sovereign nation with a fairly and democratically elected government, who was the subject of an unprovoked invasion for territorial conquest. What a joke to compare the two. Russia is defending itself from jack shit. Russia is leveling apartment buildings and killing civilians by the dozen, and they aren't making any claims that there are terrorists inside the buildings or tunnels dug under them, they are making no attempt to warn anybody. They didn't ask anyone to evacuate. They're murdering people without cause.

Yes cause they are bad guys whereas Israël is good guys murdering for good cause. Quit being dumb its the same thing they murder for territory

Didn’t she already lost at mortal kombat?

Notice how the manufacturer's writing on the bomb is in Hebrew.

See, Israel has their own bombs to drop on Gaza. And when they do drop American bombs and Gaza, it's the old shit that they already have, which they have to either use or decommission, before long.

The labeling on any kind of product doesn't represent where it came from.

China makes all kinds of shtuff with English and a zillion other languages, and localizes them for export.

I'm sure American arms manufacturers do the same.

Okay? These particular shells are Israeli shells. They make tens of thousands of them in Israel.

I'll leave that up to your expert opinion.

Or the headline of the article you are commenting on....

An ammunition in possession of an army is that army's bomb, regardless of who made it.

There could an Israeli-made bomb in the possession of Hamas, for example, but one wouldn't call it an Israeli bomb except under very specific context.
