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.

Different scenario because European colonizers actually had a home.
Where the fuck are the Jews supposed to go?
Wherever they want? There's tons of other places for the Israelis to go make lives for themselves. Who the fuck cares if they have "a state" or not? Just go fucking live and don't fuck shit up for yourselves or the people around you.
Demanding a "safe space" for your particular genetic deviation in this day and age is nothing more than nationalism. The Jewish people have an established history that encompasses the entire planet. What difference does it make if they have a "state" or not? Do you think the millions of non-practicing jews around the world give a shit?
Disclaimer: The people saying Jews shouldn't exist are ignorant, evil assholes. Also, the jews saying they have a right to bulldoze Palestinian homes are ignorant, evil assholes.
Fuck off with your religious/ethnic bullshit and figure out how to live alongside other fucking people.
Who cares if they have a state or not? Did you magically forget 6 millions innocent jews vanishing in ww2? Who would protect the jewish race (yes it's a race, according to everyone in the world sadly) besides themselves? They 100% should have a country, and they 100% shouldn't have gotten the land of israel. But who gave them it? The world. The UN vote. So blaming them is not really fair. Ever since getting it from the UN, they did nothing but keep it safe, because again, who would defend their race but themselves.
So you believe in kicking 10 million people out of their homes and telling them to just figure it out?
Like before, or now? Which one do You oppose?
Did they bulldoze a Palestinian farm to get their home?
Did you even read anything I wrote or did you just fucking knee-jerk to shitheel zionist talking points? You sound like a shitty AI bot.
Funny bit about the AI bot because when I asked you about Native American reservations it's like you didn't have an answer bc no one programmed you with that response yet.
No, we don't believe in kicking 10 million Palestinians out of their homes and telling them the Israelites now live there
Do you feel the same way about Native American reservations?
I'm sorry, but what point are you trying to make?
Asking you a question, how do you feel about Native American "safe spaces"?
Sealions?
Sealioning is when you relentlessly ask for evidence, even when you know you're going to ignore it.
I'm asking for his opinion, which I suspect he won't give because he knows it's going to make him look some kind of way.
People say that sometimes, but I think it's a good question. What would be your answer?
The allies should have given them land in europe or america instead they did imperialism and now we are here.
So honestly probably anywhere else
I think they should have made Israel from a piece of Germany.
My take is they should have given the jewish people Kalingrad.
I think that Zionism drew them to the region. They wanted to go there.
Germany would have been better though, in hindsight.
Should have, would have, could have.
Who the fuck care, where are the Jews supposed to go right now?
Where are the Palestinians supposed to go?
You both are getting tangled up in victim vs. offender. The reality is that even if there was a place for one of the groups to go and live in peace, both sides would still fight tooth and nail about who is allowed to stay. Jerusalem is sky-daddy's resort and both want to possess it.
Reconciliation before secularism is impossible.
I care so .. me?
It sure is easy to care about decisions someone made 80 years ago instead of dealing with the real life problems of present day.
that is dealing with them.
step 1 - understanding
I mean it would have been better to give them a chunk of Germany.
Idk maybe they should have not done the exact same terrible things hamas is now doing. I think hamas is wrong and evil, but they didnt cast the first stone.
That's such shortsighted opinion that if all humanity followed it there would be not a piece of the Earth left to live on. People don't automatically turn terrorist and torture civilians even if they go to war. But in this case they choose to and do cause increased suffering to others beyond whats necessary to win the fight because they enjoy when they can cause others to suffer. It's sick and deviant. No excuse.
If they were more civilized (e.g. not rapping and torturing civilians) maybe there would be dozen of countries and organizations helping them with necessities and asylum but who in their healthy mind would go there to be humanitarian risking to be tortured, raped and made their body paraded through their streets?
I hear they've stopped doing rapping, and not just because rap music isn't as popular there.
When the wars are over, people in all other conflicts have generally gone home. Sierra Leone, Rwanda, america, Ukraine before, maybe Ukraine again soon, Poland, France, Belgium, Egypt, and Germany. When the war is over, people return home and begin rebuilding.
If the followers of judaism want to go home, I'm sure they'd be welcomed home and allowed to re/immigrate quickly and easily to the nations their parents fled from. Most could claim full citizenship quickly due to their parents' citizen status or the parents of their parents.
I don't think any Jewish person willing to live peacefully should be made to leave Palestine (if it ever gets "liberated"). They also built a home and became part of the area, many without any fault of their own. Imagine just being born there into this mess. This has been going on for 75 years, people have lived and died already. It would be wrong again to de-home people. This has been the issue from the start. There is enough infrastructure in current-day Israel to be enough for everyone to live and prosper with dignity.
There has to be a solution that works for everyone, with the smallest number of casualties. It might take decades, but what's another couple of decades compared to 75 years of Israeli oppression?
That being said, settlers should give the homes they stole back immediately.
