Apparently, for a considerable amount of Israeli soldiers war against defenceless Palestinian civilians can be great fun, and worth sharing with society at large.
An Al Jazeera feature length investigation exposes Israeli war crimes in the Gaza Strip through the medium of photos and videos posted online by Israeli soldiers themselves during the year-long conflict.
Israeli troops laugh as they blow up a mosque in Gaza. For the most part, soldiers posted material in their own names on publicly accessible platforms and often gave details of when and where the incidents depicted took place.
Al Jazeera began collecting these videos and photos, compiling a database of more than 2,500 social media accounts.
A soldier told a man being tortured: "Nothing prevents us from killing you. We could just kill you all. That's normal. No one will deter us, and no one will call us to account."
The behaviour displayed in the photos and videos ranges from crass jokes and soldiers rifling through women's underwear drawers to what appears to be the murder of unarmed civilians.
It reveals a range of illegal activities, from wanton destruction and looting to demolitions of neighbourhoods and murder featuring wildly joyous grins and laughing while watching terrifyingly huge fiery explosions.
Could it possibly be Bible based 'Schadenfreude'? (Schadenfreude is a German word that means to take pleasure in someone else's misfortune. It is a combination of the German words Schaden, which means "harm" or "damage," and Freude, which means "joy".)

"Let us not cast the blame on the murderers today. Why should we deplore their burning hatred for us? For eight years they have been sitting in the refugee camps in Gaza, and before their eyes we have been transforming the lands and villages, where they and their fathers dwelt, into our estate" a sea of hatred and desire for revenge is swelling"
OCTOBER 7, 2023!
As Reported in Hegemonic Western Media
On Oct. 7, the militant Palestinian organisation Hamas based in Gaza led a brutal invasion of Israel. Israel accuses Hamas of killing 1,200 people, mainly civilians, however the major Hebrew newspapers have carried Israeli military admissions that firing from Israeli Apache Helicopters and tanks accounted for some of the Israeli civilian deaths. Hamas, which is also the democratically elected government of the Israeli open air prison of Gaza, claims most Israeli casualties were military.
