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.

It's not like he'd have anything to fear.
This isn't so much a war as it is a mass execution.
Per the article he was never in a combat role anyway - he worked as an IDF spokesman.
It's predictable that a child of Netenyahu would be more chosen than others.
This isn’t so much a war as it is a mass execution.
The rocket attacks may be, but the ground operation in Gaza is going to be anything but. There's going to be a lot of casualties on Israeli side before this is over and the first waves of wounded soldiers started coming into hospitals around Gaza right on the evening when the invasion started.
The occupation army has lost at least 15 soldiers in 24 hours, and Hamas claims that they destroyed 5 tanks, but the IDF only showed one last time I checked.
There was a Hamas video that looked like it was right out of the first days of Russia's most recent invasion of Ukraine.
Hamas fighters run up to tank, place IED shape charge, run back, boom.
I say Ukraine style, because just like Russia advanced tanks WITHOUT INFANTRY SUPPORT and got wrecked by anti-tank teams, there were NO IDF dismounts insight, although it's possible they were engaged elsewhere at the time.
The parallels between what ukrainians are fighting for and palestinians are fighting for is so clear to see. Yet i see people unironically support ukraine and israel at the same time.
I've seen the ukranian flag and the israeli flag next to their usernames. And i truly wonder what their thought process is to get them to that point.
Not all recruits serve in combat roles — Yair worked in the IDF spokesman's unit instead. Later, he got a bachelor's degree in international relations and a master's degree in diplomacy and conflict resolution.
And earlier this year, he drew a strong rebuke from the US State Department for spreading a conspiracy theory that America was funding ongoing protests against his father's controversial judicial reforms.
Bro you did not learn much in school it seems lol
"conflict resolution"
HAhahahaahahahagazahahahahaha aaaaahhhahahahahahaha
Some israelis must be very dumb.
I maintain that a common sense measure for any war, or "extended conflict," or "special military operation" is the mandatory and automatic drafting of any children of the ruling class into the infantry.
If the ruling class has a problem with that, you should have a problem with them.
Perfectly right.
Damn, Israel has an even shittier Spez than we do
Spez is no longer part of our lives. Let it go.
Spez who? You must be confused with that shittier site
lol wow I see the resemblance
Yeah, I'm really wondering. Tough question.
Corrupt parents breed corrupt children. Regardless if their last name is Netanyahu or Trump.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
As 360,000 Israeli reservists flock home to join the war effort against Hamas, some returning volunteers and their families have asked why one young man with a powerful dad isn't among them.
Since Hamas militants stormed into Israel, killing civilians and kidnapping hundreds of people, the podcaster has used his Instagram account to raise funds for charity groups working to support the victims of the attack.
We saw the pictures from October 7 of people sleeping on the floor of planes from Japan, from New York, from Hong Kong, from Thailand, just to get back," said Mitchell Barak, an American-Israeli pollster and political analyst based in Jerusalem.
But despite his influence on his father, Yair may be reluctant to return home after a string of controversies and court cases prompted him to leave Israel earlier this year.
And earlier this year, he drew a strong rebuke from the US State Department for spreading a conspiracy theory that America was funding ongoing protests against his father's controversial judicial reforms.
"The insinuation that the young activist had an intimate relationship with the head of the party, a married man who is decades older than her, could humiliate her and make her a target of hatred, contempt or ridicule," Judge Ronen Peleg wrote in the ruling.
The original article contains 1,163 words, the summary contains 210 words. Saved 82%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Since Hamas militants stormed into Israel, killing civilians and kidnapping hundreds of people, the podcaster has used his Instagram >account to raise funds for charity groups working to support the victims of the attack.
He has also been spotted sorting donated supplies for Israeli soldiers and civilians in the US city of Fort Lauderdale.
