        The fact that the company did this and the government didn’t do anything about it gives me nazi vibes.

        Add this to IDF and you get the big picture.

        Also, Hitler wasn’t a bad guy overnight btw.

        It’s fake in that this isn’t actually happening or approved by the state.

        Yet. It isn’t happening yet. Them settlers will pay a premium for that beachfront. (Also, I’m reminded of that IDF instagram … uh… person… who posted something about “I need to come back in a bikini”

      Source? Because the company who posted this didn’t deny and basically doubled back after saying it’s a “joke”

        it’s possible to be against genocide while also being against terrorists. it’s possible for smart people, anyway.

      The ad is from the Israeli real estate company Harey Zahav. They posted this on their Instagram account. After criticism and backlash they claimed it was posted as a joke.

      The Norwegian journalist collaborative fact checking service Faktisk.no has done a deep dive on this ad with a lot of detail if you want to check it out. You can read it using google translate (or similar tools) you are interested.

      https://www.faktisk.no/artikler/jdplr/kraftige-reaksjoner-etter-spok-om-boligprosjekt-i-gaza

      Some interesting facts from the article: the ad text says they are working to prepare for a return to Gush Katif, an earlier Israeli settlement in Gaza. The company is responsible for the development of settlements on the West Bank. The owner of the company lives in Moscow and seems to be an oligarch.

      So based on the info in the linked in the article the ad is very real. And while the company behind it claims it was all a joke, that does seem a lot like damage control.

        I predicted all of this back in 2016. Literally every detail about what is happening. Israeli leadership and land developers are an open fucking book.

    That’s gotta be bad advertising, surely? Like, even someone who hates the people who currently live there and so doesn’t feel horrible about contributing to forcing them out, is still not going to want to go build in the ruins of a warzone I’d imagine?

    the use of the word ‘dream’ makes this seem ambiguous. i still cant really tell if this is pro or anti-settler?

    i feel like it could either be interpreted as saying “a beach house is not positive” or as “a beach house could be a reality”

    i hope its the first, it would be really sick otherwise

      In this thread there are multiple translations of the smaller text underneath, and it’s definitively “once we genocide them we’ll have space for new beach houses”
