An Israeli court has temporarily blocked a plan, cooked up by far right minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, to construct a moat full of crocodiles around a notoriously abusive prison that holds Palestinians. The injunction was issued on Sunday against the transfer of crocodiles to the facility in response to a petition filed over concerns that the crocodiles would be harmed or mistreated.

    We can’t send these poor crocodiles to this concentration camp for Palestinians! It’s a concentration camp for Palestinians!

      Sort of yes?

      The crocodiles would also be an invasive species in the area.

      It’s wild that that is the main concern here.

      It’s all just comically evil. Like 80s cartoon evil, but as part of a genocide.

        Like I couldn’t see cobra or megatron doing shit israel does regularly… they’re evil but not without standards. Same with Joker rejecting the Red Skull because even he has enough sense to despise nazis.
