Is this the new fashion in Israel?

Dead babies, mothers weeping on their children's graves, a gun aimed at a child and bombed-out mosques - these are a few examples of the images Israel Defense Forces soldiers design these days to print on shirts they order to mark the end of training, or of field duty. The slogans accompanying the drawings are not exactly anemic either: A T-shirt for infantry snipers bears the inscription "Better use Durex," next to a picture of a dead Palestinian baby, with his weeping mother and a teddy bear beside him. A sharpshooter's T-shirt from the Givati Brigade's Shaked battalion shows a pregnant Palestinian woman with a bull's-eye superimposed on her belly, with the slogan, in English, "1 shot, 2 kills." A "graduation" shirt for those who have completed another snipers course depicts a Palestinian baby, who grows into a combative boy and then an armed adult, with the inscription, "No matter how it begins, we'll put an end to it."

Palo, that's absolutely vile. (Not exactly surprising, but BEYOND vile nontheless.) Reading this literally sent a chill down my spine.
Are these soldiers being ordered to do this, or is it some brilliant idea they came up with on their own? It wouldn't surprise me a bit if the Israeli Army was actually encouraging this sick, sick, sick behavior..
It will be a wonderful day when U.S.-taxpayer-generated aid to Israel comes to a screeching halt, and Israeli soldiers are forced to superimpose Peace Signs over all those horrific images on their t-shirts.

Edit: Sunset, that IS good news! :) Love those Scandinavians :D

I'm really confused.. how do these people think?? WAKE UP ISRAEL!! it's not a video game where u can kill whoever u want..and then celebrate it by this way ..u killed millions of real people... humans..just like u ( I guess).

seriously.. who do u think is worse now... the Nazis or Israel !
how would the jews feel, if by that time when hitler killed lots of jewish people, the nazis started selling t-shirts with a photo of some dead jews printed on it, with a bloody slogan like this one that the israelis are using now "1 shot, 2 kills"!!! ... oh by the way, the slogan is missing something... they forgot to write " hail Israel".

I wish this stuff would come on the news...maybe then America and the western world will stop supporting Israel

They used to use Palestinians dead bodies for posing with in photographs and now fashion? May God curse them on Day of Judgment

To the user above me: I am not Middle Eastern but do you know why this affects us? Because we have a heart and you dont.

Define 'civil'. Acting inhumane is not 'civil'

I have already posted the link to CNN, BBC and The Independent Blogs.
I hope some of them will not be "killed" by some jewish moderators.
I am very happy actually because Sweden takes the EU Presidency in July and thats good news.
The Swedes have a great history of justice.
bye bye

Why should we be surprised ...kids are educated from a very early age to hone their killing skills using video games .When they get to young adulthood it all must seem like a natural progression when they are instructed in the finer arts of killing by a desensitised military system .

I know that there have been similar indiscretions in our armed forces but our society won't tolerate it...
Does yours ?

It is at least as depraved as anything I associate with the "kulture" of Nazi Germany. This "Israeli culture" must go.

I wonder why they never show this stuff on the news? but whenever an arab is yelling "KILL ISRAEL" it is all over the news.


This is disgusting! If I were a jew i would most likely change my religion or atleast leave Israel for the sake of humanity! They are not humans over there.

I had some respect for the Jews now i have nothing!


OCEANLIFE
It is very brutal thing!!
It is very sick!!

There is nothing new about it. They spent the better part of the 1980's bragging about all the babies and young mothers they blew apart in Lebanon. This is not new. They were evil from the first.


BeastMaster
They lost there way like always

They got the idea from American soldiers. I had many t-shirts but they never depicted the killing of innocent civilians. Truly disgusting.

I am willing to purchase each of these shirts at $100 each.
Any jew who wants to make a small profit can contact me via email.
There are so many news agencies that I would like to send these as a gift!

So i suppose now as a Zionist your going to expect me to justify these killings. Well no, I'm not. I'm going to simply lay down the facts to you.
Every army around the world has had this problem at one point. Be it America, Spain, England the list goes on. Those T-shirts printed weren't printed in mass production and given to every IDF soldier as standard uniform. Which doesn't further justify it at all.
The Israeli government have announced that they are launching an investigation into these incidents, and those who are suspects will go through the legal system of Israel.

But you know what i always find funny about this site. Whenever something bad is reported by Israel, all the anti-Zionists on this site get all excited. But i can always draw a parrallel here.
The guys you support
-Hamas
-Hezbollah etc etc

They've been practising the very same concept of warfare since their creation, indiscriminate attacks.
How can you guys critisize Israel when your guys have countless records for Suicide bombing in civilian area's and rocket attacks.

What is the difference between the attacks these small amounts of IDF soldiers did, and the suicide bombings your guys have been doing for all these decades.....
Not a lot.


Paulie
That is disgusting. Being in the US military, I've seen a couple shirts similar to that before...I've also seen guys chewed out for wearing them. Racist, derogatory, or sexually explicit clothing is banned from every US base. The fact that an Israeli newspaper is pointing this out is good; it means that it's been brought to the Israeli publics attention so the shirts will likely not last very long.

BS: Yes, and I am sure the Roma women who were sterilized up until the 1970's would agree with you. A beacon to us all!

no, you need to keep up with real fashion my dear!

however, the Palestinians have a new trend (alothough it's not all that new) : they tend hide rockets in highly populated areas such as mosques, school, and hospitals. They think that by doing this, Israel won't bother fighting back b/c Palestinians know that Israelis VALUE life..But, little do they know-Israel has stood by for too long, so they had no choice but to sadly bomb those highly populated places becuase of the rockets hidden in them, thus killing many innocent civilians.

This my friend is a trend that you should keep up to date with!

And how is "a few" Israeli troops wearing tee-shirts like this worse than the hamas logo calling for the violent conquest of the entire Nation of Israel?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Logo_of_Hamas.svg

How many Israeli mothers and babies do you think hamas is willing to kill in their land grab effort? After all, they're the ones with the long history of deliberately attacking women and children. For that matter, how many Arab babies are they willing to kill in order to continue fighting this unwinnable war?

Bombs are more precious than children? Good Lord!!

You need to concern yourself more with how hamas treats your own people than the clothing a few Israeli troops are wearing.
