A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
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.

Oof. This is so fucking tragic.
I'm honestly surprised that Adams would actually investigate crimes committed by an Orthodox mob. That's his base.
We'll see.
Nothing will happen.
I don't think they were orthodox. Those guys are generally anti-zionist.
Also:
Adams did not specify that the attacks were from a pro-Israel crowd, and repeatedly called them "counter-protesters".
I think you're confused.
First, I'm about 99% sure that was a crowd of young orthodox men. I saw a video, and it looked like your standard Crown Heights Haredi mob. It was also outside of the Chabad-Lubavitch headquarters.
Also, why do you think Orthodox Jews are anti-zionist? Historically I think they were in tactical disagreement with modern liberal Zionism as a project, but I think they've come around and are now among the most violent supporters of land theft, settler violence, and exterminationism.
If I'm missing something, let me know.
Can you put this in any context? Because it seems to confirm what I've said: orthodox Jews were historically misaligned with liberal zionism. But the modern form of zionism is much closer to religious zionism, and the hosting of one of the most outspoken and fascistic expansionist Israeli leaders at the worldwide headquarters for the Chabad-Lubavitch sect seems to really remove a lot of ambiguity here.
It looked like a crowd of Chabadniks gathered around the Chabad global headquarters to violently terrorize anti-zionist protesters (or anyone they confused for protesters). I think you might just be operating on incomplete or outdated information about orthodox Jews and zionism.
Matriarchal culture my fucking ass.
Scum, like every Abrahmaic religion. Misogynistic scum all the way through.
