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.

When people are literally shooting at you persistently, what do you suggest they do? When nobody recognizes their war crimes and there is no where to go what do you suggest they do? When nobody recognizes that you are getting shot at despite plenty of proof and evidence, what do you do?
You say your piece and do your best to follow the laws of war despite the opposing side not doing the same.
You cannot honestly tell me that you trust Hamas more than Israel to follow the laws of war.
Well, Hamas didn't murder 4000 children. So I think what you fail to recognize is that none of us trust either of these murders, but we will trust the 4000 child killer less.
Please provide a source where Israel started their intent was to murder children.
Your right, their indiscriminate "accidental" murder makes it A-OK.
They are at war. This is not a limited fight. They are conducting a total war to eliminate the Hamas power structure. Hamas showed them that any inch they give them will be payed in blood. The lesson they learned last conflict is that conducting a limited war literally makes no difference in the information environment. They will lose anyways there so they are conducting a legal war to achieve actual change.
I think you will find that absolutely none of these actually of war crimes will be stuck to anyone because the evidence is scarce at best, just like last time. The records match the decisions which match the intelligence. As long as no actual war crimes are committed, Israel could care less what you think of them this time.
You are invading, hence, you are responsible for your own actions. That's life.
Nobody but you dropped the bomb, pulled the trigger, made the decision. Israel has agency. They've used it to commit murder and they will come to be known as murders for it.
You already considered them this before the start of this conflict even in a limited war. They honestly don't care about what you think. They want to change the calculus through the dismantling of Hamas so this can never happen again.
This slaughter guarantees it will never end. You are beyond reason and I hope you live to see the fruits of vengeance the seeds you plant now will come to bear. I don't wish you or anyone harm, but when it inevitably comes, don't you dare for a second excuse yourself from the knowledge that you helped further this cycle of misery upon the world. "let he who seeks revenge dig 2 graves"
I'll ask again. Stop ignoring it and answer the question. What do you consider moral in war? I need to get you to be able to understand the difference between war and war crimes when it comes to morals. I will not allow you to continue to bounce around the topic.
Don't bother. This person is the biggest Hamas shill troll on lemmy.
I've noticed. The sheer volume this account posts is enough to give the appearance of a consensus.
