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.

The word “for” makes up nearly a third of the headline. This is merely an observation, but also a slight annoyance.

Human welfare optional.
Apparently so. This was only blocked because it was deemed cruel to the Crocodiles.
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.
As far as this court is concerned, crocodiles are more important than Palestinians…
And you’re telling me this isn’t an Onion article
Every time a country becomes arguably more vile than the US it turns to just be them copying the US…and still Americans won’t see the issues with their behavior.
Jesus christ, what the %#* is wrong with these people?
Alligator Auschwitz 2.0
Israelis are Nazis.
Next attempt: Sharks with freaking laser beams…
/s. Jeez people!
I imagine that when Israelis mention animal welfare they mean those palestinians, those animals.
EDIT:/s Sheesh, people!
I expect the crocodiles have more rights and will be treated better.
