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.

Poor kid who can't get married, because his dad decided to bomb another country to distract the international community from the genocide he's committing.
Which means Bibi is also directly responsible from fucking up his son's wedding. Fucking narcissists.
Spoken like a true sociopath.
Oh noes! Maybe uhhh don't pull this type of bullshit?
He probably did it so he wouldn't have to pay for the wedding or some shit like that.
Lol or better yet, didn't approve of the fiance.
I fully expect that years from now we'll find out he started WWIII over some petty bullshit.
I doubt there'll be much Intel left, post-ww3, to ever really know.
Bloodthirsty butcher. He is up there with Hitler. Stalin and Pol Pot as one of the tyrants of modern history.
I could end the conflict right now and go to my son's wedding BUT probably lose the next election and go to prison... OR I could keep it going, make the entire planet a worse place but stay out of prison, keep leading the party and not go to the wedding...
To me, the Israeli occupation of Gaza and the West Bank reminds me of the Nazi occupation of the USSR and Yugoslavia, mass murders and everyday war crimes. The IDF are on the same level as the Nazi SS brigades, war criminals and child murderers.
Comparing this to the Blitz.... Fucking yikes, no wonder the guardian broke free of their leash to underline how tone deaf this is.
He had to cancel his son's wedding? Wow, he must be suffering almost as much as everyone living in Gaza. Too bad this is just a thing that happens, it's not like there's a single person who can just stop the whole thing...
No, really, it is like the blitz. It's just Israel is playing the German side.
