An Israeli soldier was photographed smashing a statue of Jesus Christ in southern Lebanon, and the Israeli Defense Forces confirmed the image is authentic...
The photo was first shared by a Palestinian journalist who identified the statue as being located in Debel, a Christian town in southern Lebanon.
The IDF stated it views the incident with great severity and that the soldier's conduct is wholly inconsistent with the values expected of its troops.
An investigation was launched by the Northern Command, with officials pledging that appropriate measures will be taken against those involved.
The IDF also stated it is working to help restore the statue and emphasized it has no intention of harming civilian infrastructure, including religious sites or symbols.
The image sparked widespread backlash online, including from conservative politicians in the United States.
The statue's owners responded to the incident by quoting the biblical verse Luke 23:34, "Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do."
As of April 16, Israel and Lebanon had agreed to a 10-day ceasefire, though reports indicate Israeli forces have continued military operations in southern Lebanon, including artillery shelling along the border.
At least 2,294 people have been killed in Lebanon by Israeli forces since the conflict began.
The destruction of a Christian religious statue by an IDF soldier in Lebanon has deepened tensions at a time when Israel is already facing intense international scrutiny over its military operations. The incident risks alienating Christian communities in Lebanon and beyond, damaging Israel's standing with Western allies who view religious freedom and the protection of sacred sites as core values. It also adds fuel to ongoing debates about conduct and accountability within the IDF, and further complicates fragile ceasefire negotiations, as critics argue the episode reflects a broader pattern of disregard for civilian and religious infrastructure in conflict zones.

So many things finally hitting today. Thursday I was in shock, yesterday I was in isolation reading absolutely everything (and thank you all for the kind words) and today I feel the need to connect.
This show started because of a pandemic era Dungeons & Dragons campaign, where my longtime friend Bo and I would stay on for hours after everybody else had logged off and gone to bed. We didn’t talk all the time, so it was really refreshing to have this new way to connect with each other and stay in touch during those difficult weeks.
We talked about everything, and sometimes stayed on for full days without realizing it, laughing until we couldn’t keep our eyes open. It was like the Seinfeld episode when they pitch the show about nothing. This is it. This is good. We’re just talking, and we would watch this. Four years ago next week, Chris Hudson at Knotfest gave us the opportunity to post our first episode, and we had zero aspirations other than having fun with each other and talking about hardcore. Over the next few months, our lives were different, we were arm in arm, connected forever.
All of the episodes over the years where it was just the two of us always reminded me of those days, how special they were, and why it ultimately could have only been the two of us to do this. No rules, no stress, just letting you all inside of our minds and our friendship. We rarely hugged, we rarely said I love you, only towards the end did we drop our pride and call each other best friends, but we both knew every day.
Every Monday we logged on and recorded ads. 3 minutes of ads would often take over an hour just because of all the banter before, in between, and after (sorry Steven). That always reminded me of the D&D days as well. It was my favorite time of the week. When we got to talk, just for us.
More than anything, I just can’t believe I never get to see (or smell… my god he smelled good) him again. But I am so grateful that all of my best days with my best friend were recorded, for me, and for you all to see, forever. He was the best person, with the BIGGEST heart that I’ve ever known.
This Thursday we will be posting something that upon time of recording, we were terrified of, and instantly regretted. An intimate look into both of our lives that felt like too much access to us, and something we couldn’t take back after it was realized. In a window of manic productivity, I revisited it yesterday, expecting dread and agony, but instead was met with the comfort of just sitting with my friend again. I am now so grateful that it exists, and hope that you all bear through the pain and hear what he had to say. I love you Bo. That fourth hug is coming some day.
Love you @gothsconsin@harmsxway.
It is with heavy, broken hearts that we share that our beloved Bo Lueders has passed away.
He will be remembered for his unwavering empathy and compassion for his friends & family and his magnetic, inimitable presence on & off the stage.
We kindly ask for grace and privacy as we navigate this extremely difficult time.

On May 13, 1985 in Philadelphia, the Pennsylvania State Police dropped a bomb from a helicopter onto a Black neighborhood.
11 people were killed, 5 of whom were children.
As we see ICE terrorize communities, understand that saying “this isn’t who we are” is false.
do u guys know how jarring it is to be yelling about blowing your brains out then suddenly seeing a banana and a t-rex playing grab ass? don’t fuckin do that bro lmao
Chairman Paul Birdsong from a newly formed Black Panther Party in Philly:
“An unarmed woman was killed by ICE…so we’re here to protect the community. If ICE thinks they’re going to brutalize the people on our watch? Fuck around and find out.”
I recorded, mixed, and mastered this whole EP in my house and it’s the most proud I am of anything I’ve recorded.
