World News
A community for discussing events around the World
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.

what exactly in what i said is discussed at length?
No, Zionism has always been about the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians since it's inception. Partition was a deliberate tactic to set the stage for plan dalet which was also planned. You keep repeating these myths. Section 2, Partition, shows how the Nakba was not "the only option" it was intentional. I provided multiple books that go into depth exactly how these myths are untrue and don't reflect the reality of the history.
when the ottoman empire was defeated both the arabs and the jews suddenly realised they had a chance of their own state
the arabs started attacking the british and the jews and the jews started attacking the british and the arabs
finally the british left and it was the arabs vs the jews
the arabs lost, big time, and kept losing for the next 80 years
i'm sure i can find a couple of books that say that as well
Sure, books written by Zionists who see Palestinians as subhuman. Good for you. Enjoy justifying ethnic cleansing and genocide. You clearly have no interest in human rights or the reality of Israel Palestine.
quite the opposite; there's lots of non-genocidal zionists that wish october 7th had never happened and the war had never happened and wish the settlers in the west bank were in jail
but they are also sick and tired of the palestinian militant zealots pretending they and the surrounding arab states are just the victims for 100 years
for peace to happen both sides need to dig deep into reality
No, there isn't. All zionists support the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians. If they didn't, they would be anti-zionists. Of which there are a few hundred of within Israel. If they genuinely wanted peace and an end to the anti-apartheid resistance, they would end the fucking apartheid.
a few hundred, lol, that's very accurate!
neither side genuinely wants peace, they're still at war, there are still hostages
Hamas proposed a full prisoner swap as early as Oct 8th, and agreed to the US proposed UN Permanent Ceasefire Resolution. Additionally, Hamas has already agreed to no longer govern the Gaza Strip, as long as Palestinians receive liberation and a unified government can take place.
Israel has never had interest in peace, you fail to comprehend that.
they better update that charter again to catch up with whatever they made up this week
i'm guessing you want the struggle to carry on because daddy putin needs it to use antisemitism to his advantage around the world
Fuck Putin and fuck you. I don't support any fascist.
