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:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...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!

Yeah, there is a pretty big difference between "they think we shouldn't defend ourselves" and "they think we shouldn't commit war crimes and genocide while defending ourselves". They initially had a ton of support for defending themselves after october 7th... but they turned the tides against themselves by almost immediately going way too far. It has absolutely nothing to do with who either side is ethnically or religiously or whatever, it is entirely the war crimes and genocide we want to stop.

They're not even defending themselves. They're killing women, children and old people. They're destroying water purification plants and hospitals. Genocide is not an act of self-defence, it's a crime against humanity.
