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!
-
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.

Is now a hospital in name only. /yawn.
Imagine how shitty it would be to make an active hospital a valid military target…
Now imagine how shitty it would be to attack a hospital without it being a valid military target.
Israel is truly Nazi level evil.
Link to what you're referring to?
Edit:
This is who Israel is fighting. Civilian suffering is the point for Hamas.

Man pulls up with a link from 2009 as evidence that Hamas was in this hospital LMAO.
This is clearly a straw man argument and, notably, an avoidance of providing a link to further explain what you're referring to, for some reason.
As my clearly marked edit says, the link and excerpt provided is meant to demonstrate the type of civilian suffering which is the point for Hamas and was clearly not meant as evidence that Hamas was in "this hospital". It's tough to even try to say Hamas was in "this hospital" seeing as you haven't provided any more context for what you're referring to. For some reason.
Can you show me the evidence of Hamas using the hospital as a base?
Look I can do that. Here's evidence for Nazisrael using the hospital as a military base
I'm still not clear on what Israeli strike on a hospital you were originally referring to. Feel free to expand on that at any point.
Re: This picture: Refer to my original, top-level comment.
The whole point for keeping military ops out of schools, hospitals, and away from civilians is to not make them a valid target for the opposing force (assuming they abide by these rules, which Hamas does not). If this hospital is now devoid of doctors, patients, and other civilians, what's the issue? It's just a building now.
Your feigned ignorance of how Hamas' whole goal is to inflict as much harm on their own civilians is tiring and the whole reason I posted that 2009 article.
Got anything that's not 15 years old?
I can see I'm not actually going to get any specifics out of you here.
I'll let this exchange speak for itself for those that come by later.
Mh interesting so no evidence nor anything of substance like me being able to provide video evidence of israeli soldiers committing the war crimes they are accused of.
