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.

But Israel did cease hostilities, right untill Hezbollah started them again...
No they didn't. They very specifically never stopped actions in countries they aren't at war with and notably as the article states THEY WERE PLANTING BOMBS IN CIVILIAN ITEMS again in countries they aren't at war with.
These bomb-planting shenanigans only began after Hezbollah restarted the hostilities
Also, why do you consider devices used for military communications as civilian items (in all caps no less)
This is the second round of bombings with seemingly benign objects.
They are quite literally bought OTC they are in fact civilian objects, that's why terrorists use them....
Seriously, a book.. once.
These weren't bought 'over the counter', these were bought en masse from the producer and specifically meant for military use
You're fucking dumb there's thirty on eBay and more on Amazon, it's literally an OTC open band civilian tx/tx device. It's even in their fucking wiki and they released a press release about it. Jfc, just use Google dude.
What's next you think they were targeting people with "military grade beepers?"
Legit a book, once ever.
Ed: they weren't purchased by the manufacturer, icon even has to come out prior to the bobbing and say they believe there were counterfeit ones or there and it turns out the isrealis made them.
You seem very, very focused on this 'read a book' thing. Feel free to elaborate how you think that relates
OT: they were pagers meant for military use. It seems that the devices that exploded were exclusively in the possession of people working for Hezbollah. Implying that the Mossad put bombs in devices that innocent people could buy on eBay or Amazon is a complete fabrication or, at best, completely delusional
Books educate, you need education. Pick a subject, start reading.
That's not at all proven and the 2800 injured seems pretty high to all be Hezbollah huh?
I didn't imply that at all, again there's that reading thing again boss.
In this instance just read the fixing article and that alone should dissuade you from this stupid easily proved wrong goddamn stance. Just read the article, once or in your case probably twice or more.
I'll drop the 'read books' thing, that doesn't seem to go anywhere
If you have any information on people getting blown up by pagers they bought online, please share. I just read (sorry) in an article that the Mossad had been running the factory where Hezbollah ordered theirs for at least two years, apparently shipping out loads of 'normal' versions to keep the cover going strong.
Why would that seem high to you?
Ok fair, read the article. Let's start there and move onto books without pictures.
Again. Read. The. Article. Similarly that applies to your claim they only ended up with Hezbollah, as that has no proof and Israel at this point isn't even claiming it. So ..
Are you serious? Read the article, it includes bystanders dipshit.
Ok, ok, I concede
I'll read the article. There is, after all, only one article on this issue and I have refused to read it until you convinced me. I'm sure it'll show you were right all al... Oh wait. What? What is this?
Now you wait just one minute, you little rascal! Have you been posing as the patsy all this time just to discredit the real buffoons in this thread? I must say you had me fooled there for a while 😀
Well played, sir. Well played
It does, we agree.
Two unsubstantiated claims.
Notably none of your claims were proven and in fact the article consists only of refutations of your dipshit positions and straight up goddamn lies.
Sarcasm, of course your an idiot and a confident one at that jfc, read a book.
You are a beautiful person, and you are loved
You're full of shit and playing the moderate now isn't going to get you anywhere ya Zionist fuckwit.
Zios were murdering palestinians at record rates well before they started full genocide 1, 2.
People inside the imperial core are generally completely ignorant and brainwashed about the reality of zionist genocide.
Ah, yes. History started in '22.
You sound like you're ready to shoot every 'zio' they put in front of you, no questions asked
You seem like you forgot how terrifying Hitler was. Now your nation is repeating the same shit
