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.

That's a list of topics not evidence of your claim. None of said topics are labeled as, "genocide," or, "ethnic cleansing," You expect me to sort through all that to find the "mounting evidence" you claim is in there? "Google it" is not providing evidence, it seems like you can't be bothered despite all the time you're spending concern trolling about this.
I may be informed but I'm not omniscient, I'm giving you benefit of the doubt that you might have learned something I have not. My bad, I guess.

Yes, the evidence is so big we need several human rights organizations in and outside of Israel to document it. Yes I expect you to look through them.
You can take it from the UN https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/un-experts-point-evidence-genocidal-incitement-against-palestinians-2023-11-16/
Or from B'Tselem, or Human Rights Watch, or Amnesty, or JVP, or whoever you feel inclined to believe...
Or get it from this long fucking list of UN resolutions on Israel https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_United_Nations_resolutions_concerning_Israel
So are you like a troll or do you live under a rock or are you part of the Israeli social media war scene? A, B, or C? I would go for A and C.
Don't bother. This darkgamer guy is so delusional he thinks Israel is under an existential threat of being destroyed by hamas... no seriously he thinks israel can lose a shooting war to hamas...
Sometimes it just gets one's blood boiling when people say they are practically okay with all those dead people under the rubble and all the survivors with limbs missing.
Yea this same dude was trying to chide me for insulting him and others of his ilk. Needless to say i just told him off in the politest way possible and then next comment went back to telling him Hitler would be proud of him and to fuck off.
I wish I knew what compels them to wake up in the morning and spend precious online time defending war crime after war crime.
It's a paycheque for some.
AH a downvote from someone getting a cheque perhaps? It's a well documented fact that Israel (like all modern nations) has people paid to spread their prefered narrative.
So, to the downvoter do you think this is not true?
I'll take that as a confirmation.
Thanks for playing.
