Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

I'd also like to add that they outed every single CIA operative hired in the past two years.
Fantastic job, assholes.
"After President Donald Trump’s executive order on shrinking the federal workforce, the Office of Personnel Management sent a memo on Jan. 20 to all federal agencies asking for a list of recently hired employees who remained on probation by Jan. 24.
The OPM, however, does not have a classified communications network. So the CIA sent it an unclassified email with the first names and the initials of the last names of the new employees, the official said."
Fuck the CIA.
Trump's Gaza comments hand ~~jihadist terrorists~~ anti-genocide resistance fighters a 'rallying cry,'
Dear imperial news... Stop promoting racism and genocide.
Also notable that basically the whole world condemned this plan. So I'd say it's a pretty damn broad audience who will rally against this.
I mean to be fair, it'll hand both a rallying cry. Both resistance fighters and "let's bomb some infidels" terrorists don't like the prospect of an American annexation of Gaza, to put it lightly.
Also if getting rid of foreign invaders troops in your area is followed by them coming back 15 years later in a different place nearby, you might get tired of the whack a mole and start thinking of looking at the place they keep coming from.
Does Israel?
Israel and Trump have the same end goal of turning Gaza into free real estate so unless the Arab states make enough noise I don't think they'll object too much.
Israel as in Netanyahu sure. Will the fundamentalist wing accept non-Jews settling in Gaza? How will this occupation even look like?
You're trying to tell me there is no such thing as jihadist terrorists?because if you don't I can send you a long LONG list of terror attacks by jihadist terrorists that killed countless innocent men, women, and children.
Now before you take this away and claim i support genocide, because that's the world we live in now, I don't. Obviously.
Once freedom fighter is a other ones terrorist
Having said that, jihadist terrorists have caused untold suffering as well. This might sound strange, but both sides can be bad and things like collateral damage don't justify the suffering these groups have caused.
The Israeli government (not it's people, just it's vile leaders) should be put against the wall and shot for all the (child) murders and genocide. The same, however, goes for the jihadist terrorist groups, they too should be eradicated for the countless innocent people (and children) they've murdered
I think this person saw "jihadist terrorist" and understood that to mean Hamas or PIJ rather than ISIS and Al Qaeda, which is more the article's intention.
The tone deaf, imperialist rhetoric supporting Islamic ethnic cleansing from the commander of the world's most powerful military and nation can radicalized people on matters of survival and principle to fight back with whatever means that they?! Color me shocked.
Who has the return of the crusades on their bingo cards?
It's gonna suck but the drip will be fire
They had to make sure to have quality kneepads... You know why.
This is def AI though, right? I can't put my finger on it, but it just has that look.
They had to make sure to have quality kneepads... You know why.
Oh, I do know why! You really made fun of them good by implying they do gay stuff.
The fact that you think the joke was about being gay, says a whole lot about you.
I could not care less about dudes sucking dick. I was referring to the subservience that comes with it. I
Yeah yeah, just quickly asked bing on my phone. I'm honestly surprised would make it for me.
I tried placing the setting in Palestine but then it refused that and all future requests :p
This is exactly what we don't need. Another 9/11 like attack could unify all of our politicians (and probably much of the population) behind Trump, which would end up being very bad for everyone. We've just arrived at a point where glassing the middle east with nuclear weapons is no longer a common talking point. Please, for fuck's sake, just sit back and let the federal government implode.
Trump is making himself another 9/11
I hope they don't need an address. A well trained dog could figure that out real quick.
Yeah so we know that cheeto isn't capable of thinking ahead for more than 30 seconds, but seriously, he couldn't see this coming?
He basically gave a nice big gift with a cherry in too to all terrorism networks in the world. Maybe Trump should become marketing manager for AlQaeda? I mean, I think few could have done a better job.
Having said that: expect terrorism to rise over the next few years like there is no tomorrow, literally.
Yeah, next four years is going to be rough for everyone except the wealthy.
I predict a contemporary security failure worse than 9/11 or Israeli October 7th Orc invasion, and will ignite the World War powder keg once again.
Israeli October 7th Orc invasion
Who upvotes this kind of racist pro-genocide crap? Zios are fash cultists.
Bro, they flew in with gliders, shot and killed hundreds of kids at a concert...
Please enlighten me what kinds of heroic "freedom fighters" take hostages for ransom money?
This is not a rhetorical question, I'm genuinely asking you because I'm dumb.
I wouldn't want the wealthy to feel left out. Perhaps we should roll out the guillotines?
Get their head in the game.
The wealthy are more reliant on a stable domestic environment than most, should fear chaos for the reasons you suggest.
That person is advocating for racism and genocide. I'm willing to bet they support the capitalist terror regime too.
Genuine question: if israel wants to expand their territory, and it seems clear that they do, why would they want to give gaza to christian americans? Isnt total control their aim? Why would they let america take territory they see as their owm.
They never really wanted gaza, it's a small piece of land with little historical ties to the bible/Torah. In fact it has more ties to the philistines (non jewish inhabitants of the area), yes that's where the word Palestine comes from, who were there historical enemy.
There long term goal pre October 7th was to try and move all the Palestinians in the rest of Israel into Gaza. You could see this with there funnel immigration policy, if you left Israel for east Jerusalem you couldn't come back to israel, if you left east Jerusalem for the west bank you couldn't come back to Jerusalem, if you left the west bank for Gaza you couldn't come back to the west bank.
The problem with this plan, besides the ethics of doing a slow ethnic cleansing, was that if you concentrate that many people in an open air prison it tends to radicalize them against the wardens. So they had to deal with constant missile fire, they thought Iron dome would solve this but Oct 7th removed that image of safety.
So now they need a new plan. They can't force them out as no country will take them. They can't occupy it long term because it just becomes a pit to throw Israeli soldiers in, that's why they left in 2005. So trump volunteering to take it off there hands is the perfect solution, the u.s. can pay the money and lives in a quagmire while the Israelis can "live in peace"
Thank you for explaining it to me.
I think their extreme hate of anything Palestinian might just top their desires for the land.
Fair call, but how will they get along with evangelical christians dying for the apocalypse?
As long as these are their bitch, which the US political elites mostly are, they would be fine with it. Also ideally the Americans would then do the fighting and murdering for them, so they can just collect the scraps in the end.
There is a lot of delusions of grandeur in Israel though. By not getting any serious pushback from the US and the lobby capture of US politics many Israelis have become completely detached from the reality of their position. Among younger Jews outside Israel the majority has become critical of it and want little to do with it. Meanwhile Palestinians have a higher birthrate and pre genocide there was about as many Palestinians in the area as there was western Zionists.
So the apartheid system is becoming less and less stable as the demographics tip over. This became evident with Oct. 7 and Israel needs every help they can get to ethnically cleanse or fully genocide as many Palestinians as they can get away with. In the same sense they cannot be too picky about their settlers as long as they think they can control them.
Among others, Israel is harboring child rapists that fled from justice in the US. And this is not crazy propaganda to make them look evil. It is reported on by mainstream media outlets, including Israeli ones.

Eventually America will get bored and vacate the land, so the logical choice for an ally to take over is Israel
They surely don’t like this idea but they’re scared of daddy Trump.
Also they know it’s going nowhere and will be forgotten if they just ignore it.
Yeah, that sounds like what people said about project 2025, i dont believe the 'he doesnt mean it' crowd.
He means it but I think this one will be way too unpopular to go anywhere. But we’ll see I guess. I’m no prophet.
I mean... that's probably (about as close as he has one) the plan...
He could technically deport fellow Mexicans to Gaza. Is that when we say stop?
