A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
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.

The violence won't end until Bibi says so. Who's going to stop him or even try to convince him? The US? Its clear they're going for a major land grab. Northern Gaza and Southern Lebanon for a start.
They're a nuclear armed power. Even if the US halted all support, it feels like that wouldn't be enough to stop them.
How does more violence help peace talks when the other side still has a war criminal in charge?
Yeah, they literally killed the guy they were directly negotiating with, nobody's going to want to be the next one.
They've killed the Hamas negotiator twice and the Hezbollah negotiator once, so 3 times so far
Exactly; they've killed the guy who was actually talking to them; do they expect the next person to be more cooperative?
No, they just want more excuses to kill civilians
IDK man, it doesn't seem to be about Hamas...
Reviving more bad deals for Palestinians.
Israel is blatantly turning northern Gaza into a death camp, and has killed the THIRD person they were negotiating with in recent months.
Why the fuck would you negotiate with a bloodthirsty ghoul like that?
Who else should they negotiate with? He was apparently their top dawg regarding both their military as well as the hostages
The bloodthirsty ghoul I was referring to is Netanyahu.
Yeah they misunderstood your question on purpose
Huh? Revive? I mean it's Middle Eastern Eye so they're at least not parroting US propaganda but how the fuck does that make sense?
Edit: I see now (should've probably read the article from the start). It's more the US "trying" for peace talks than any real progress.
They'd just replace him with someone worse.
they'll replace the head with another dead guy
