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.

It's clear to me, based on what you've said, that you know nothing about Israelis (Arab and Jews), Jewish culture and history, Israeli politics (foreign and internal) and Middle East geopolitics.

How come you write with such confidence about something you know nothing about?

If Israel is committing genocide (which is not), it's the worst implementation of such policy. They could kill hundreds of thousands of people in a few days, and that never happened.

Also, you conveniently forgot to mention Hamas' massacres on October 7th. That's the only reason for the ground invasion.

Dude they want plausible deniability, they want to have no responsibility in doing so. It's pretty obvious what Israels goal is and has been for the last decades. Steal land, just look at the west bank or even a map.

You've been brainwashed by your own government to support Israel in it's crime spree.

This is also relevant to you. You haven't established any knowledge about any of those issues.

You are spewing out nonsense based on a false narrative. If you want to establish common ground based on actual facts, you are more than welcome.

What facts, that Israel is expanding it's illegal settlements?

[–] anas@lemmy.world 6 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Do you get paid per argument? You mentioned a lot of unrelated stuff lol

[–] apub879@kbin.earth -1 points 7 months ago

Why would anyone pay me? I'm just a random guy on the internet.

Do you get paid per argument?

All the things I've mentioned are relevant. Many people are talking out of their asses without knowing anything about this conflict. They don't make the minimum effort to learn the basic things, they just follow the mob and reuse their words without understanding any of it. Some Israelis do it, some westerners do it, some arabs do it.
And all of these useful idiots are being manipulated by Islamists, radical left people, white supremacists.

You mentioned a lot of unrelated stuff lol

It's clear to me you know nothing about it. How can you write with such confidence about something you know nothing about?

They are committing a genocide before our eyes and the attack on Oct 7 does not give anyone the right to commit their own massacre or genocide.

[–] apub879@kbin.earth -1 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

You didn't address this point.

If Israel is committing genocide (which is not), it's the worst implementation of such policy. They could kill hundreds of thousands of people in a few days, and that never happened.

This is also relevant to you. You haven't established any knowledge about any of those issues.

It's clear to me, based on what you've said, that you know nothing about Israelis (Arab and Jews), Jewish culture and history, Israeli politics (foreign and internal) and Middle East geopolitics.

It is correct that 2 wrongs doesn't make a right. And you still haven't demonstrated that there are massacres or a genocide in Gaza committed by the IDF.

the attack on Oct 7 does not give anyone the right to commit their own massacre or genocide.

[–] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

It's common knowledge at this point that they are doing a genocide. The the words of the ICJ Israel should do everything to stop doing one

https://www.bbc.com/news/live/world-68097640

https://www.icj-cij.org/sites/default/files/case-related/192/192-20240126-ord-01-00-en.pdf

The Court considers that, with regard to the situation described above, Israel must, in accordance with its obligations under the Genocide Convention, in relation to Palestinians in Gaza, take all measures within its power to prevent the commission of all acts within the scope of Article II of this Convention, in particular: (a) killing members of the group; (b) causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group; (c) deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part; and (d) imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group. The Court recalls that these acts fall within the scope of Article II of the Convention when they are committed with the intent to destroy in whole or in part a group as such (see paragraph 44 above). The Court further considers that Israel must ensure with immediate effect that its military forces do not commit any of the above-described act

[–] apub879@kbin.earth -1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Excuse me, can you even read? Please cite a direct quote from the ICJ ruling that clearly states that Israel is committing a genocide. Can you do it? Of course not, because they never did.

You are still avoiding addressing this point.

You haven't established any knowledge about any of those issues.

It's clear to me, based on what you've said, that you know nothing about Israelis (Arab and Jews), Jewish culture and history, Israeli politics (foreign and internal) and Middle East geopolitics.

[–] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 7 months ago

So the count ruling that it appears to be a genocide and to stop doing the genocidal acts while we continue the case isn't proof enough? What would you need?

I'm asking you what your qualifications are to say no one can talk about the area
