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.

What did Hezbollah say to this proposal? Are they ready to finally comply with UNSC resolution 1701.
Do you really give a flying fuck what Hezbollah says? Or are you asking to make sure the blame for the proposal to fail can be shifted to Hezbollah. The party to cease fire are the Israelites.
Hezbollah has attacked Israel non stop since October 8th 2023.
Ah yes, famously nothing of note happened before then.
Looking at the source, it's very unclear to me how they count.
For example:
In self defense, it's allowed to deny the attacker the ability to continue his attack. That means if you have a stack of 10 snow balls and throw one in my face, it's okay to destroy all 10 snow balls to stop the attack.
That would be 50 attacks from Hezbollah and 10 attacks from Israel. As you can see, Israel is responsible for over 80% of the the attacks

Israel has better intelligence, technology, weapons, more money, and a full fledged military.
Yes, they are the aggressor. Hezbollah only exists as blowback from Israel's previous invasions and occupation
Wouldn’t exist without the ayatollah in Iran. Their ideology is the same as Iran’s.
They would exist regardless of Iran, the exist because of Israel's Settler Colonialism, which Israel will never stop doing
Their ideology and finances would be different, if they were Arab nationalists or even Ba’athist. Islamists are fundamentally more difficult to deal with.
Islamists are not 'fundamentally more difficult to deal with' than any other religious ideology.
If you're issue is radicalization, then you should also be against Zionist aggression. The realities of Settler Colonialism, bombing civilians, stealing land, violent occupation, will inevitably radicalize those people to resist that violence by whatever means they can.
Israel has occupied Lebanese Golan Heights.
You might be confusing it with Southern Lebanon like I did. Although the continued occupation of the Syrian Golan Heights and Palestine are a certainly related to the continued existence of Hezbollah. They are against all Zionist Settler Colonialism, not just when it's done in Lebanon

it's Lebanese but Israel occupies it and claims it's Syrian. But Syria claims it's Lebanese. Don't ask me why Israel is occupying land which they claim belongs to Syria.
The Shebaa Farms, also spelled Sheba'a Farms (Arabic: مزارع شبعا, Mazāri' Šib‘ā; Hebrew: חוות שבעא Havot Sheba‘a), also known as Mount Dov (Hebrew: הר דב, romanized: Har Dov), is a strip of land on the Lebanese–Syrian border and currently occupied by Israel. Lebanon claims the Shebaa farms as its own territory, and Syria agrees with this position. However, Israel claims the territory belongs to Syria. This dispute plays a significant role in contemporary Israel–Lebanon relations.
The Golan Heights used to belong to Syria from 1944 to 1967.
They were never Lebanese.
