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.

Hamas isn't negotiating directly. They're doing it through Qatar, which gives the "political" side more leverage than you're suggesting.
The story is plausible.
The political side sure has some leverage but I highly doubt it would be possible for them to full on block any deal.
Sinwar's position can be likened to president such as Biden, whereas Haniyeh is more of a negotiator like Blinken.
They might have a slight difference of opinion, but if Sinwar really wanted to accept a temporary truce deal then there is no doubt he outranks Haniyeh.
They have seen how the last temporary ceasefire didn't achieve anything and was even violated multiple times by israel. So they are now pushing for a full ceasefire deal instead of a truce that only delays the Genocide.
I don't think anyone can really know that.
Sinwar's hiding in a tunnel somewhere and is much more likely to be killed imminently. It's Haniyeh that's meeting with Iran, Turkey, and Qatar. Those two don't like each other and Qatar has a better relationship with Haniyeh.
Who knows how he's using that leverage? Who knows how Qatar weighs their positions? It's not knowable for certain.
If Haniyeh says no and Qatar passes it on as a no, what could Sinwar do about it right now? Not a whole lot.
You are indeed right about that. But that would mean that Haniyeh is their only contact person which also seems doubtable.
In any case since the article contains this line
It seems like we're basically just gossiping without any real evidence. Which makes the headline pure clickbait.
It could mean that. But it could also mean that they just respect his position as much or more.
And yeah, they absolutely might also be on the same page. The article is clear that these are rumors that aren't verifiable. There isn't a way to easily report on them though. This tracks with reporting about a widening split that's been going on for a long time but we should take it with a grain of salt for sure.
