"You will say that what Hitler did to you was a joke - come on, we are waiting for you," Palestinian political activist Ahed Tamimi said.

Her Instagram post, translated in the link:

“Come on settlers, we will slaughter you. We are waiting for you in all the cities of the West Bank. What Hitler did to you was a picnic. We will drink your blood and eat your skulls”

She has since been arrested:

      Yes, yes it is hard to understand threatening to drink someone’s blood and eat their skull.

      I do not support violence by either side but is it really so hard to understand her perspective?

      yes. everything. especially the blood drinking, terrorist supporting and the fucking hitler reference.

          @Nacktmull Texas didn’t. I’m using it as an example.

          Consider that Texas was once part of Mexico, and imagine if a group of militant Mexicans tried to seize Texas back for " historical" reasons. Now imagine how well Texans might react to that.

          It’s a reference for Americans to look at Israel versus Palestine

      Do you have a limit at where the bloodlust stops being understandable? I, for one, have never felt remotely angry enough to think drinking blood looks good. Shooting people in the head, sure, but eating people? Hell no.

          In the context of a war where atrocities are being committed every day and the video is available to watch I don’t think that somebody saying ‘I want to join in’ can be dismissed as rhetoric. When someone tells you who they are you should beleive them.
