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.

Something about not guiding public opinion or stuff like that
If such demands are met and Hamas is removed from Gaza make no mistake, the Gazan people will be the next thing they remove from Gaza.
100%. The West Bank is proof. They are being slaughtered and ethnically cleansed from there with no recourse. You need guns to defend yourselves against genociders, WW2 proved that. Hamas, and similar groups, are the only ones willing to carry guns and actually defend their people.
I have personally seen the west bank settlements and how Palestinians are treated in the west bank, its a population that have submitted and now the boot is on their throat.
I hope Israel listens to them and return to ceasefire but they wont. "But did they condemn Hamas?" Yes these bare starved homeless civilians did already but the IOF wont stop killing because Israel never want to give Palestianians their human rights and lands. Israel wants to continue being the colonizing genocidal aparthied it is.
These poor Gazans upmost demand is to be another West Bank for Israel to occuoy, ethnic cleanse, and expand its settlements in. The West Bank did not take hostages and no there is no Hamas in charge. Yet they are getting killed and their lands stolen and treated like 3rd-class citizens in aparthied Israel everyday.
There certainly are Israelis who want to listen. But unfortunately Netanyahu does not.
There certainly are Israelis who want to listen.
They are, however, a very small minority. Most Israelis don't want peace with Palestinians at all.

I see the usual classy comments on such news stories from the Israeli public, calling the Gazans "Gazanimals" etc, and each comment 90%+ upvoted on the site.
The history books will have a wealth of material to work with.
Yeah, I had a zio tell me: "Go back to Arabia, Arab!" I'm not even Arab..
Plus all the videos of these people, etc.
Racist trash.
I have never understood why people are so unequivocal and quick to take sides in this conflict. Either people insist on "No criticism of Hamas" or "No criticism of Israel". It has always seemed clear to me that both the Israeli people and the Palestinian people are victims of their and each other's respective warmongering hardline governments. It is possible for both sides to be completely in the wrong, and arguing about which is "more wrong" and trying to tally up historical injustices to debate who has the biggest total is fruitless and counterproductive. Until both sides are willing to admit they've been wrong and done wrong to each other and accept that very justified criticism, the violence is never going to end. Criticism of both sides is not only deserved it is necessary and probably the only answer. Both sides need to be forced to take responsibility for what they've each done wrong instead of justifying and defending it and acting like they're completely innocent before this is ever going to have a chance at resolution.
The only conclusion I can draw is that some people REALLY don't want it to ever have a peaceful resolution, and I think that's probably closest to the actual truth of the situation. Really sickening and sad, for everyone victimized by this conflict. And I'm not even going to start getting into all the various foreign governments "supporting" both these sides. These are the ones who don't want it to ever have a peaceful resolution, I suspect.
I am hoping that maybe these protests are at least a sign that Gazans are willing to start vocally criticizing Hamas' role in perpetuating this violence. Now for us to be getting somewhere we'd need to start to see the same from the Israeli people too. But I'm not holding my breath. These protest efforts may be too little too late. Israel is clearly the better equipped and supported regime here; globally we seem to be returning to the horrible principle of "might makes right". As we know history is written by the victor, and genocide is an unfortunately practical and well-tested way of silencing your critics.
Israeli people and the Palestinian people are victims of their and each other’s respective warmongering hardline governments
Overwhelming majority of Israelis support the genocide.
It's tens of thousands of Palestinians that are dying, not Israelis. It's the Palestinians that had their airport blown up decades ago. It's Palestinians that live in an apartheid regime. It's Palestinians that did not have the right to leave their prison. It's Palestinians that had to deal with MK84 2,000lb American made bombs blowing up on their homes. It's the Palestinians that are going without food and water and electricity.
There is no equality here. This is not a both sides thing. One side is committing a genocide and the other side is being genocided. That's it. That isn't an excuse for Oct 7. That isn't to mean that Hamas is blameless.
But if you took all the crimes of the Palestinians and put it on one side of the scale and all of the crimes of the Israelis and put it on the other, there is no comparison.
What is even your point?
Genocide is bad. Resistance against genocide is good. That’s it.
Why would you want Palestinians to get quietly exterminated? Why do you think Hamas even exists in the first case?
Keep on whitewashing crimes against humanity and demonizing the international right of self determination. History will not forget your kind.

Initially I had a similar view until I learned of the following 3 things:
-
Palestinians signing the Oslo after which the Israeli prime minister was assassinated by an Israeli ultranationalist.
-
The Palestinian government in the West Bank put down their weapons and still get attached by settlers and the IDF and imprisoned with essentially no rights.
-
The Israelis are literally murdering them by the hundreds
Also seems like these people are just protesting for peace and are saying so whatever we just want peace. Yet the title of the article doesn't focus on that

Carrying flags of surrender, blaming only Hamas for the genocide being conducted by the IOF, calling for the release of Israeli but not Palestinian hostages, and specifically trying to keep the press out of hospitals?
Yeah, this has Mossad false flag op written all over it..
Typical jpost hasbara.
Here's hoping these protests become a daily occurrence and they're finally able to give Hamas the boot.
The destruction of Gaza would have resulted in new Hamas recruits several times the number of this little protest.
Hopefully they’re able to give Israel the boot.
Hammas and Netanyahu need each other to survive. Give them both the boot.
There is no Hamas without Israel.
Sadly there is an Israel without Hamas.
Get rid of Israel and both go away.
Netanyahu will just go to war with the next countries. See the Israeli invasion of Syria, see their invasion of Lebanon, see their plans to create a greater Israel requiring to go to war and annihilate all surrounding countries and hundreds of millions of people.
Hitler didn't stop when Austria and Czechoslovakia where handed to him on a silver plate. Neither will Netanyahu or the other Fascists stop.

This is a very small minority of Gazans. Most Gazans know that Hamas is the only party standing in the way of a full ground operation of the genocidal forces into Gaza. When Palestinians are no longer facing genocide they can start demanding a government that represents every Palestinian, until then they don’t have that luxury.
It seems the majority of people here actually believe that without Hamas Israel would just stop invading and pull out. This might have been wishful thinking a while ago, but right now this is called delusion, as we've seen what happens when you tell Israel you won't attack and are willing to cooperate for the benefit of both sides (Syria and Lebanon).
Without military resistance Palestine would not exist. Israel has always been clear about their intention to wipe out all of Palestine. There was never a moment where Palestinians could stop Israel from invading in any other way than fighting back.

While I hope Hamas doesn't get to keep ruling Gaza, Uprooting the only government that has some weapons and is willing to point them towards the invading army instead of its people doesn't seem like an effective way to make life in Gaza better or safer. Just ask the West bank.

fuck hamas but for Israel hamas is just an excuse not the end goal.
Doesn't help that the IDF knew the attack was coming. They let their civilians get killed and captured so they had an excuse.
Worse, the IDF was under orders to expand the Hannibal Protocol to civilians the whole time, too.
Hannibal Protocol is the order to kill Israelis rather than allow them to become hostages.
Meh. Sounds like phony zio propaganda from a phony zio "newspaper".
I'll wait for a reliable news sources to report on this.
