World News
A community for discussing events around the World
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.

Oh but they do own the areas that are constantly attacked through rocket barrages of various terrorists, including hamas from Gaza. I think their responses are often disproportionate but they very well have a right to go after the terrorists.
@100_percent_a_bot conversely, the Palestinians would have every right to go after Israeli terrorists then
Especially considering that Israel wants to continue the Occupation for eternity

Sure thing. They should just continue to lob rockets into Israels general direction and keep killing thousands of their own as suspected Israel collaborators, that will show them
@100_percent_a_bot as compared to Israel lobbing rockets directly at civilians, oppressing civilians for literal generations and thinking that somehow you living in that environment would find it acceptable.
If the shoe were on the other foot, probably wouldn't side with your foreign occupier
You need to learn to think outside the box
Oh now I'd be curious to learn which areas of Palestine you think Isreal is occupying
@100_percent_a_bot Anything outside of Israels borders. Good luck with that
Stop supporting ethnic cleansing. It was wrong when your people did it to the Jews, it's wrong when the Israeli are doing it to the Palestinians
Well according to Hamas and much of the Arab world, Israel proper is Palestine. Let's make a deal: I'll stop supporting the ethnic if you stop spreading terrorist propaganda
@100_percent_a_bot considering you just spread terroristic propaganda, how about you figure out where Israel's borders are. Ask the Israeli and see what they say, once they figure it out.
Then try to figure out why that's a problem. Your neighboring countries, do they know where their borders are? Why doesn't Israel?
Let me know when you tire of defending terrorists
Oh I'm pretty sure they know where their borders are, it's not that hard to see them. They don't even have dotted lines around them like so many other disputed territories. And I'm not the one defending terrorists, you are.
@100_percent_a_bot In fact, if you really want to think about it and I do mean think about it. Compare and contrast Nazi propaganda to Israeli propaganda. Let everyone know when you figure it out
@100_percent_a_bot You're trying to defend ethnic cleansing terrorists whose borders you can't even define.
Wake up
Remember your history, you sided with the wrong people once before, stop doing it now
Well right now you're siding with the guys who historically aligned with Hitler and follow in the same antisemitism so I don't know if that's really the winning argument. Get help. Preferably in Canada. MAID, look it up.
@100_percent_a_bot Have you ever taken a drug test you passed? I'm siding against modern day Nazis who are currently slaughtering innocent Palestinian civilians and children

You're not even sending me the good propaganda. There you go, this is who you are simping for: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MvvqBcA-9yA
@100_percent_a_bot I'm not simping for anyone, but it's pretty horrific that you think that opposing the massacre of 20,000 innocent Palestinians requires simping. Maybe you have forgotten where you came from, not as far from Nazi Germany as you might have hoped

Take the hint
@100_percent_a_bot Can you do us all a favor and post what kind of rockets this 9 year old was firing when the Israeli military executed him?

Oh you actually completely changed my mind about a grand geopolitical conflict that has been going on for decades by pointing at some random shit, good job buddy. The brain worms must be proud.
@100_percent_a_bot I understand your need to be reductionist to try to escape your complicity with the new Nazi regime
Reality must suck for you
When you finally find your morals and ethics, let us know
You have literal brain damage if you think that current day Israel is anywhere close to where the nazis were. As a german I think it's disgusting that you guys (meaning you and your brain worms) equate everything you don't like to nazis because that's the only history you think you know (you don't).
Besides, I have way more faith in Israel holding the perpetrators of this shooting accountable, should it turn out that the shooters are Israeli than I would have for Hamas or the PA holding anyone accountable ever for killing Israeli citizens. They literally have a fund set up to pay the families of people who kill Israeli and get themselves killed or imprisoned in the process.
@100_percent_a_bot and now we will see your problem, you're a German with a pro Israel bias. To the extent at which you'll excuse all of their atrocities against the Palestinians because of your national guilt.
If it helps to know, we forgive you. You need to forgive yourselves. The only way Israel differs from Nazi Germany, is the lack of the train service to the Palestinian territories. Aside from that, Israel's conducting ethnic cleansing, Holocaust minor if it makes you feel any better
Didn't ask, your forgiveness means nothing to me because I didn't owe you anything to begin with. My stance on the issue has nothing to do with my nationality, I'd just pick a flawed democracy that somewhat enforces liberal values over a dictatorship of terrorists that rewards people for murdering jews.
And it shows that you know absolutely nothing about the holocaust if you think that what Israel is doing right now is anywhere close to it. In fact, there's probably no genocide in the history of humanity that was anywhere close to the scale and brutality of it. If Israel wanted to actually cleanse Gaza from the map we wouldn't see 15k dead (and that's the upper end Hamas number) within two months but rather 10 - 20 times that within weeks. Israel has the means of wiping them off the map completely so why don't they?
@100_percent_a_bot also, it should be mentioned that Israel really prosecutes and punishes Israeli citizens for attacking and killing Palestinians. Even when convicted, their sentences are absurdly light.
Other times they get rewarded for doing it, weren't you just saying this about the Palestinians? It appears your other issue is that you're ignorant of the situation.
Israel is a terrorist nation, remember that
https://www.timesofisrael.com/campaign-to-free-israeli-killer-of-palestinian-family-raises-over-nis-1-2-million/amp/
You pointed to Israeli getting sentences for crimes against Palestinians. Can you point to any Palestinians who got even absurdly light sentences for killing Israeli?
@100_percent_a_bot Except you've got who the terrorists are wrong. The Israeli invaded the Palestinians not vice versa.
@100_percent_a_bot https://www.instagram.com/reel/C0WhjQXq7uq/?igshid=ODhhZWM5NmIwOQ==
Explain what those residential buildings had to do with terrorism?
You're not engaging and throwing more random propaganda shit... Boring
