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.

Sorry, these humanitarian activities interfere with our Final Solution for the Palestinians.
You make it sound like Israel hates everything about Palestine, when clearly they love their land.
I think that was pretty clear when they unilaterally proclaimed a Jewish ethnostate in a land full of Muslims.
Fucking fascists.
Then ban the rogue state of Israel from the UN. Oh wait, the US and its satellites will vote against.
Biden Admin: Israel, you must improve the humanitarian conditions in Gaza in 30 days, or else...
Israel: Designates the main aid organization, a UN organization no less, as a terrorist organization and bans their activities, violating international law in the process.
Biden Admin: ...sigh...the US commitment to Israels security is ironclad...
From shooting a little girl in a car to bombing ambulances to burning people in hospital tents to mass murdering journalists to bombing foreign aid workers to mass rape camps to banning UN aid.
One has to admire the sheer dedication Israel puts in to reach the front page of the news with a new massive human rights violation nearly every day for an entire year straight.
That's fine. Palestine isn't their country.
You and I know that. The Knesset clearly does not.
They should talk to their leader because he's saying otherwise. Apparently either Netanyahu or the Knesset is lying. Hmmm.... I wonder which?
They have just fucking stopped halfway covering what they are doing haven't they? They realised that daddy US will protect them no matter what, so now they just go full steam ahead.
