Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

Foreign volunteers are restricted from entering Gaza. If we are allowed to bring supplies, it may not be a bad idea. I wouldn't mind getting send there, I have no other way of sneaking in.
Ordinarily, I'd agree with you, but the IDF is intentionally targeting aid workers, so even if they let you in, they may well murder you for trying to help save Palestinian lives.
Not saying that you shouldn't still help if you're willing to risk your life to save lives, just that you REALLY need to know what you're signing up for and that forcing anyone to is ABSOLUTELY cruel and unusual punishment and almost definitely itself a war crime.
