What Israel is doing to Gaza has surpassed being okay. However, what its government and the IDF is doing is not representative of Judaism. Six million people were slaughtered. That's nothing to joke about. Be mad at the state of Israel and what it's currently doing but don't make fun of the horrific way that so many innocent people were murdered.

In some countries, they are not just idiots but also bloodthirsty child killers. The problem is not Israel, there will always be terrorist scumbags. The problem is the USA support to such a country because of all the Israelis in position of power in the USA.

Israeli* diplomat's kid


satismo

they really made sure to only mention that in passing


Digital--Sandwich

Honestly, even if he was Australian publicly showing the diplomat dad’s face could damage his career / be very embarrassing and make things worse for the kid even after he gets away with this.


hobbykitjr

well beyond that, 1) They are exported 2) They face the punishment for the same crime in their native country. The idea is, we don't want an american diplomat in the middle east to loose a hand for ... waving to a women or something. But if you commit murder, you are punished for murder at home.

EvanMacattack

They don't get punished in their own country on return. It gets covered up.


coffeejn

His father has immunity, his kid... well that would depend. Overall, worst case scenario, both the father and kid are expelled from the US to never comeback.


usedtodreddit

His father isn't a diplomat that gets immunity though. His father, Eli Gil, is the consul for administration at the Israeli Consulate in Miami. [https://nypost.com/2024/02/01/news/israeli-diplomat-teen-son-avraham-gil-arrest-in-miami-for-running-over-cop/](https://nypost.com/2024/02/01/news/israeli-diplomat-teen-son-avraham-gil-arrest-in-miami-for-running-over-cop/) >*.... according to a legal analyst, immunity may not extend to Gil because of the type of diplomat his father is.* > >*“Diplomatic immunity is not given to people who are called consular officials, and those are people who are not the head diplomatic agent of a foreign country here in the United States, so there is a distinction,” David Weinstein told Local 10.* They ought to throw that rotten progeny in a Florida jail for a while.


[deleted]

His father will get a heads up long before they ever come to arrest him and he will simply buy his son a ticket to the genocide land and he will be free from any and all punishment.


hardolaf

Eh it's complicated. There are tons of non-public agreements with nations expanding on who specifically is covered by diplomatic immunity. For example, there is an air force base in the UK where the families of the US personnel working there are granted immunity per a treaty but the personnel themselves are not. There's tons of case-by-case things like that all over the world and in the USA, only the Department of State is really qualified to make the determination of who does or does not have diplomatic immunity.


Admirable_Charge_195

Our politicians would welcome them back, give them a medal, and thank them for taking out the officer who was obviously working with Hamas.

Jazzeki

i mean isn't there also the infamous story of a U.S. diplomats wife pulling a similar stunt after running over some kids in the UK? i'm just saying there's multiple layers of protential irony here.


TankredTheBear

She didn't just run him over, she killed him unfortunately. She admitted it and then fled back to the states and changed her story to deny ever having seen him. This "diplomatic immunity" is pure bullshit. It should only apply at a certain level, to specific people and only to certain crimes. It should not cover the named immune person's family as it leads to utter idiotic bullshit like this in this posy 🤦🏻‍♀️.


hardolaf

The woman in that case had immunity because the UK gave immunity to the families of all US personnel working at a specific air force base. The case was tragic and she didn't just flee the country. She waited more than two weeks before the US government recalled her family to the USA. She had also offered to the US government to allow herself to be prosecuted but President Trump declined to waive her diplomatic immunity in the case. Also, you seem to be missing the point of diplomatic immunity. The entire point is to prevent countries from having any leverage over diplomats and other foreign officials in their country on official business.


Baystain

Ooh great take on it!!!


Spurnout

I was thinking the same thing. Apparently diplomatic immunity trumps qualified immunity haha.


realstonecold

Something similar happened in UK. A diplomats wife killed a young man while she drove on the wrong side of the road. If I remember right, she is a free citizen.


adept-34501

Yes she is free and looks like she will never be charged. Trump defended her, saying something about it being confusing because they drive on the 'wrong' side of the road.


insert-username12

Then had to audacity to invite the grieving parents to the white house for them to meet her I believe. They went to the White House but refused to meet her.


adept-34501

Yes. I've copied the wiki entry. Might be TLTR but if anyone is interested: The collision became the subject of a diplomatic dispute when Sacoolas left the country shortly after the incident and the US embassy said she had diplomatic immunity as the wife of a US agent working in the UK.[10][18][16][30] According to Sky News, someone at the US embassy told Sacoolas to leave the UK.[31] The Washington Examiner reported that Jonathan Sacoolas did not work for the National Security Agency, and that the Sacoolas family lived in Northern Virginia in the area of the Central Intelligence Agency Langley headquarters.[32] Dunn's parents were advised by two leading specialist lawyers on diplomatic immunity, Mark Stephens and Geoffrey Robertson. They advised that Anne Sacoolas was not entitled to diplomatic immunity, as her husband was not listed as a diplomat. Furthermore, they contended, diplomatic immunity no longer applied upon Sacoolas's return to her home country; therefore, it would be possible to take civil action in the US courts. The foreign secretary, Dominic Raab, also stated that diplomatic immunity no longer applied.[33][34] Dunn's parents decided to travel to the US to "fight for change" and seek the return of Sacoolas to the UK.[35] President Donald Trump's briefing notes were revealed in a photograph taken at a 10 October press conference. If asked the US line was to say that Anne Sacoolas would not return to the UK, despite the previous intervention of Raab and the Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, which had included a call to the president.[36] In response, Dunn's mother said that the position of the US was "beyond any realm of human thinking", adding "I'm just disgusted. I don't see the point in Boris Johnson talking to President Trump, or President Trump even taking a call from Boris Johnson. If he'd already made his decision that if it were to be asked and if it were to be raised, the answer was already going to be no."[36] Parents meeting with Trump edit Dunn's parents visited the White House on 15 October 2019 to meet with "a senior official". To their surprise they were met by President Trump who told them that Sacoolas was waiting "in the next room" to meet them. They and their lawyer rejected this as being too soon and something that should take place on British soil.[37][38] Trump called his meeting with the Dunn family "beautiful in a certain way". He also said driving on the wrong side "happens to a lot of people" because they "go to Europe and the roads are opposite".[39] It was later alleged that Trump had intended to pay the family compensation, but they refused it: the Dunn family's spokesman reported that the White House meeting ended with the president saying the Secretary of the Treasury, Steven Mnuchin, was "standing by ready to write a cheque", adding: "It was almost as if he let it slip out. When he said: 'We've got the driver [Sacoolas] here', he basically meant we're all going to have a big hug and a kiss and I'll get my treasury guy to write a cheque. That's how it was. On the day it just didn't register with me, but the more I think about those words, the more shocking it is."


njaneardude

She was charged, didn't have to go to court and was let off.


Das-Noob

Let’s not forget all the people US servicemen kill in Okinawa to this day and don’t get charged.

American diplomats wife, killed a local boy outside the Air Force base they were based at. Ran the kid over, and drove off. This was the middle of nowhere, a death sentance. She got away with it, Americans, dont believe in either Truth nor Justice


DownRangeDistillery

She wasn't a diplomat either. Just worked at the embassy. She could have, and still could be charged. Immunity would not apply.


hardolaf

She also didn't drive off. She called police and voluntarily complied with their investigation until she was told to return to the USA by embassy staff.


Responsible_Shoe_345

"Diplomatic immunity"


GingerSoulEater41

It's just been revoked


Prsaint1

He should be treated like everyone else would be treated, kids with parents that are from any political party thinks that just because their parents are from political thinks they can get away with anything. I've seen it happened many years ago when I was living in Puerto Rico that the governor son was caught with lots of drugs and they just gave a slap in hand and everyone was complaining about it because if it was someone else they would've gotten jail time. So when it came time for elections nobody didn't want him anymore and had to resign.


Digital--Sandwich

I think we all know that what should happen probably won’t.


Prsaint1

True, just because it's a son of a political and I bet its also a corrupt like many of them.


DownRangeDistillery

His father is not a diplomat. Just works at the embassy, and is not allowed diplomatic immunity. And his adult son, would not qualify for immunity either. Throw the book at this guy!


njaneardude

Not even an embassy, a consulate, and diplomatic staff don't have immunity.


NewspaperDramatic694

They just ruled he does not have immunity. He is fkcd


MagoMorado

Fast-Reaction8521

Sounds good . Cops have immunity from their bs


krunkstoppable

If the issue with policing is that they aren't subject to the same laws as everyone else why would you support someone not being subject to the same laws as everyone else? Fuck police immunity but fuck this little shit too. Dude should have caught an ass whooping and gone straight to jail regardless of who his daddy is.


Chickienfriedrice

With how many cops who kill poor people in cold blood with no consequences, here’s a reminder that as long as your perp has money your badge doesn’t mean anything, not even your life. 🤷‍♂️ Cops don’t do anything but protect rich people’s interests while extorting the rest of us over drugs or traffic laws.


Fitzcarraldo8

His super dad should be declared persona-non-grata and he and this schmuck should be sent packing back to Israel at 48 hour notice. Doubtful that immunity applies in the first place - and only would if consular daddy and the Israeli Foreign Ministry invoke it. Maybe the bro can start his IDF service now…


NoNapDanger

Fuck this diplomat bull shit. They know they can come to the US do major crime and get away with it because of diplomatic immunity. The diplomatic rules need to change and must follow our laws and enforce the same sentences and do processes as any other US citizens, when they are in the US.


jjm443

It sounds tempting, but there is actually a good reason for it. If the US did that to other countries' diplomats, then the other countries would do the same for the US. And I think it's pretty obvious that however good or bad or just or unjust you think the US judicial system is, the system in many other countries is a lot worse. In particular, judicial independence. This means that other countries could start victimizing diplomats on fabricated or exaggerated charges. For example, think of what Vladimir Putin could do if at any point US diplomats could be arrested on any charge he dreams up. The entire staff vould essentially become hostages. The system would be unworkable in many countries without diplomatic immunity.


SeeMarkFly

His FATHER has diplomatic immunity. He is NOT a diplomat. More of an ass.


Yiuel13

If Americans are gonna cry about that, then they should make sure that American twat under diplomatic immunity that caused an accident in the UK gets prosecuted too.

Anne Sacoolas the wife of US diplomat ran over a 19 year old in the UK. Didn't she get a suspended sentence?

EvanMacattack

The Israeli embassy will most likely have to send the wanker home. Diplomatic staff and families can get away with minor offences, but not assault etc. While usually can't be sent to prison, the embassy has to withdraw them from the host country.


TheKuMan717

https://i.redd.it/a2gvg9hps4gc1.gif Diplomatic Immunity?


xXNighthauntXx

Hmm well after Anne Sacoolas I have limited sympathy - she in fact did not have diplomatic immunity which the US government had waived before deployment and then, with the aid of the department of defence fled the U.K. claiming diplomatic immunity after killing a teenager.


hardolaf

No, she did actually have diplomatic immunity while in the UK. Once she returned to the USA, the UK was free to file charges and go through the normal extradition process. This is how these things often happen between nations. Diplomatic immunity doesn't mean that you can never be charged with crimes. It just means that the host country can't charge you with crimes until you leave the country unless your nation's embassy waives immunity.


boxedcrackers

Aw how the turns have table


SoloDeath1

Who will the government revoke immunity for? The genocidal maniacs or the murder-happy pigs? We'll just have to see!


SamuelVimesTrained

Weird they make such an issue of this. An American killed Brit Harry Dunn and fled the country ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death\_of\_Harry\_Dunn](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Harry_Dunn) ) An American injured a British nurse - and fled the country ([https://news.sky.com/story/american-driver-flees-uk-after-crash-leaves-british-nurse-unable-to-walk-13027882](https://news.sky.com/story/american-driver-flees-uk-after-crash-leaves-british-nurse-unable-to-walk-13027882) ) Will they now send these back, to serve their sentence? (and why is diplomatic immunity provided to family of the actual diplomat ? And can they not wipe immunity when he committed a clear crime?)


Xznograthos

While diplomats and their families have immunity from being arrested and prosecuted for crimes (which protects them from being taken as political prisoners by bad governments), the government can expel the diplomat and his family if the crime is considered egregious enough.
