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 OCTOBER 19 2025
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.

I think the fact that Israel killed innocent people that were merely trying to access humanitarian aid is more worrying than the fact that they then couldn’t even bother to bury them correctly.
It isn't that they tried to bury them and did it incorrectly, it's that they get a high from desecrating the bodies and they use that as psychological warfare.
It took CNN this long to report on it in an investigation, but the IDF has been doing it proudly and happily for years, they even posted videos themselves of bulldozing people while laughing.

I’ll go check that out, thanks!
You'd think they'd have learned from history about this. You need crematoria when doing a genocide.
They learned that doing that costs money and leaves more evidence the extermination was intentional behind.
It's a result of 77 years of impunity and inaction from the major powers
Every accusation by supporters of the terrorist government of Israel is a confession
I’m honestly more than a bit aghast that the Israelis seem to have learned all the wrong lessons with regards to the Holocaust
Israel != all Jews. Many Jews, like Bernie Sanders or those who voted for Mamdani, are very much against what Israel is doing. If anything promotes antisemitism, it is the Israelis committing genocide while claiming to represent all Jews. That & the majority of US politicians and mainstream media defending Israel while they make such claims, showing that Jews don't control the American government, but it is certainly much harder to argue that Israel doesn't.
You have non-Jewish Zios gaslighting Jews who are opposed to Zionism. It's gone so far off the deep end.
I'm talking about people like Hillary Clinton. But there are many others.
