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.

MODERATORS
It's in Likud's founding charter, so yeah, pretty well telegraphed.
Hey, look, it's been exactly what we've been saying it is from the beginning. It's a landgrab. The liberals will be flocking to claim that this is definitely not just like Putin's landgrabs in eastern Ukraine, and that it is fundamentally different, either because Israel thinks that a thousand years old book promised them half of the Arabian peninsula, or some other nonsense about Hamas tunnels.
Not arguing with you, but I think Gaza is even worse.
What’s happening in Ukraine is terrible - but it’s a war between two countries, that each have an army.
What’s happening in Gaza is something else. It’s a country sending an army on a civilian population. Palestine has no army to defend itself.
And if, for the sake of argument, you accept Israel’s claim that it owns the Palestinian Territories, then it means Israel is turning its army against its own land and its own citizens.
And here you are wrong, Palestinians have no citizenship and nowhere to go. A lot of Ukrainians escaped the war, Palestinians simply can't do that. They are stuck in a very small land rendered completely inhabitable by now, with no escape and no future.
No shit. How is this not obvious to the entire world?
It is.
Plans to? They're already doing it! They're literally having sales events for planned construction!
Yeah, moreover, they’ve always taken more land after every major offensive of the last hundred years. Who hasn't seen it coming?
Even you, Mr/Mrs/Thing Gullible, have seen it coming!
Siezing land is literally Israel's raison d'etre and raison d'etat. "Concerns that the Jewish Lebensraum project is may be doing what it was created for."
Israeli lebensraum, not Jewish. Conflating Judaism with Israel is anti-semitic.
Israel is a colonial project of creating Lebensraum for Jewish people. That's not saying that Israel is equivalent to Judaism, rather that the explicit purpose of Israel is to create an ethnostate
They have become that from which they fled.
It’s the saddest irony
Duh! This has always been the plan, it's now just ramping up.
Raising questions? No. The only question is how far, how much, how many people will die.
And when will someone finally step in to stop the genocide
Harris for sure will stop it after she got elected. she is just toeing the line, pinkypromise. The US Dems truly dont want to support this genocide. All they say and do to the opposite is just for the election. Biden when in the 80s he said if there was no Israel the US had to create one was just anticipating his election dropout in 2024. Really guys just vote Democrats and this will end the day after.
Who would you honestly vote for who can win and stop the genocide?
You can’t vote to end the genocide. Democracy isn’t real.
Fears grow? Really? That's what it's been about for decades at this point.
Whem Kamala wins, there needs to be mass protest everywhere she goes. She needs to step in and safe what is left of a great group of people.
We need to stop expecting change to come from our rulers. We need to take change into our own hands.
If Kamala wins the biggest fear is liberals not demonstrating out of complacency. Similar to how the George Floyd movement died after Biden was elected. But subsequent years police violence has gotten worse.
Whomever wins this time, mass protests. Instantly. Everywhere.
For real change, we need to change local for cops. States hold police in check and unfortunately federal has little they can do.
Also Biden never had control of the house. He would need that for any federal change. I personally was effected by the police and wish my federal reps could do something. However, I live in a gerrymander hell hole called North Carolina.
But you are right, we need to stand united against the murdering of the palestinians.
Why would she listen to a word of it after the election?
Bc enough people standing together can change minds. Let a million people show up at your house, you will think twice about stuff.
protesting against zionist violence and land theft has all but been outlawed.
But if this was two months ago, I'd agree with that. Thats why I was hoping more people would sign onto the uncommitted movement when we had a chance to let biden/harris know that supporting genocide wasnt going to be permitted by the voters.
Yeah, that worked though. Biden stepped down and was replaced with Harris. That is extremely rare. His debate didnt help but different states voming back with 1-8% uncommited/other was also a driving force.
Right now we need to defeat the local threat before we can put presser on the over seas threat. I.e russia and isreal
depends on what the protests look like
The country that has armed settlers go take land all the time already in the West Bank? Nah. /s
I'm the kid who stood in line and watched everyone in the Pepsi Challenge pick the cup on the left. It was always on the left. It's how (this one anyway) was set up. So 50 people ahead of me choose Left like good consumers and get their prize (I think you got a Pepsi if you picked right - again maybe just how this one got run) and jack shit or a button if you picked Coke. I pick Right. Because I've always done stupid shit like that thinking this was the one that's different.
The idea of Israel not intending to gain territory to me is not a bet even the kid who failed the Pepsi Challenge would take.
Hey! Looks like your tires are flat! Is that why you're pumping them?
Yup! Here's your sign!
Hey! It looks like Mexico is not invading Kuwait anymore as it was never predicted anywhere by anyone!
Yup! Here's your sign!
