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.

The IDF is bombing UN buildings and people are still waffling on calling Israel a terrorist nation is hilarious.
I had to reread this a few times to understand that "waffling" means being hesitant.
Eh am I old? that's not a strange phrase is it?
It's not a common international English word and English is not my native language.
Native English speaker, though haven’t lived in the UK (nor any other country with English as the primary/dominant language) since I was a chid.
I’ve heard the phrase a million times said out loud.
First time I’ve seen it in written language, however.
ah yeah I can see that, sorry
No worries.
Well, not that hilarious, really.
It's hilarious in a "humanity is completely fucked I'm screaming internally" way. This is not sane laughter
Y'know, I'm starting to think those Israelis are a bunch of fucking assholes.
If they do just one more genocide I'm gonna start getting a little angry

On a similar article, a lot of people on reddit were saying that they could be terrorist on disguise, therefore is on to kill them (attempt to) ask, and that's all good as per Geneva convention.
My reply was deleted, my account banned and my will to stay on that platforms eliminated.
Zionists bending over backwards rationalizing their war crimes as just anti-terrorist attacks while they are invading another country is the ultimate mental 4D chess.
When not being like you it's there crime, everybody is a valid target
reddit is absolutely unusable.
I got banned for similar behavior, but I still lurk there sometimes. Recently I read an upvoted comment along the lines of: "I would rather have the Nazi for government than live with these hamas supporters and wokists."
There are hundreds of other examples of how biased toward fascism this platform has become. From my understanding, many moderators of large subreddits (e.g., r/worldnews, r/mapporn, r/news, r/geopolitics) have been purged and replaced with state-affiliated actors like literal IOF soldiers.

A lot of fucked up things in all that, but them condoning killing civilians is apparently okay, but asking how Trump hasn't been killed yet for trying to turn USA into a fascist dictatorship gets you banned.
That's what got me here.
r/worldnews is Israeli gov’t propaganda
Don't worry, you would have also been banned if you had depicted israelis suffering the same abuse at the hands of Palestinians. They REALLY don't like to imagine that.

At first a crime, then doubling down on the crime and making it a massacre, then destroying evidence and lying to everyone about the circumstances...
...I do wonder if there's something else the IDF needs to accomplish, for some countries to reconsider their support to Israel.
somehow this went from defending themselves against terrorist's, to them becoming terrorists as well
The state of Israel was founded by genocidal terrorists
Religion as a concept and religious states are nothing short of fascism. It doesn't matter if the upmost entity is fictional, and the power is actually wielded by kings or popes and such, or if it's Hitler, at the end it's all the same: A way to suppress and mass murder anyone and anything that doesn't please the Führer(s).

It's always been like this, but more importantly: The IDF aren't (at least primarily) terrorists; they're a Jewish Wehrmacht launching a war of extermination on the people of Gaza. Calling that terrorism implies that they're equal to Hamas rather than subjecting Palestinians one of the worst crimes a state can commit.
Literally.
In 1948, both Irgun and Lehi disbanded and merged into the newly formed IDF, though some former members later entered israeli politics. (Yitzhak Shamir: Prime Minister of israel (1983–84, 1986–92). Initially Lehi’s operations chief, he later led the Likud party and upheld hardline Zionist policies)

A colleague lost his brother with this convoy. The path / location of the convoy was shared with the israelis too. They were executed and the vehicles completely destroyed.
Same as the Hind Rajab case (and countless others). More than a year on Israel is still 'investigating'.
Of all countries on this earth, Israel is without doubt the nastiest, most cruel, least human, most bigoted, worst possible country of them all. The people who have chosen to move to Israel as outsiders are IMO just at responsible for any death of innocent children. Are you an American "Jew"? Well good for you. now fucking stay the fuck where you belong instead of terrorizing random families thousands of miles away under the excuse that you own their house or whatever fucking messed up crap you can come up with. I have edited this comment to remove a section which I was made aware is Anti-Semitic due to conflating Judaism with Zionism - thanks for making me aware. I got carried away and regret the harsh tone of the original comment.
There are plenty of anti-Israeli Jews. Don't paint us all with the same brush.
Nearly every Jewish institution has been infected with the cancer that is zionism.

I agree with much of what you're saying... But it's antisemitic to conflate judaism with zionism.
Zios can be jewish, christian, atheist, "muslim", etc. Conversely many jews are not zionist.
There's little reason to even talk about jewish people when the actual problem is the genocidal ideology of zionism.
Thank you for this, it is always nice to be corrected and actually learn something. I do apologise for the original comment and how it came out more harsh than intended. It is good to know there are actually many Jewish people who do not identify with Israel's actions and don't consider themselves Zionists. It is too easy to get revved up and write angry things on the internet. Thankfully this is a good media and people are actually being helpful and providing some great feedback.
Interesting thing that there are more Zionist Christians than Jewish (is it called Jewish or Jews in this case?) Definitely worth reading up on this part.
is it called Jewish or Jews in this case?
Jews. A thing can be Jewish, a group of people can be Jews. Another rule of thumb you can use is adjective vs noun.

Wow I'm so shocked that those genocidal wackos would murder even more people. Totally unheard of. \s \s \s
