Rewrite for truthiness: Israel declares itself above international law - announces it will keep stolen land because "God" loves them most. Such a bunch of cunty fucks.

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.
-
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.

And God sayeth unto his followers..."Go forth and advance your real estate holdings!".
Is there a way to surgically drop a small nuke on the heads of state with an absolute minimum of collateral ? ideally, none at all ? asking for a friend. The friend being the french government
This is the definition of imperialism, literally.
the policy, practice, or advocacy of extending the power and dominion of a nation especially by direct territorial acquisitions or by gaining indirect control over the political or economic life of other areas
Yeah, basically they want to colonize it like the West Bank.
Was always about imperial conquest.
Just like Russia in Ukraine.
It's called annexing, not "taking over", It's just violent robbery at a national scale. Stealing another country's land because might makes right to these psychopaths.
So which country is finally Poland requiring a global response now?
Gaza.
It's been begging for help for close to a century now...
This was always their plan.
They've always been clear about their colonial ambitions.
A few years down the line, Israeli settlers come over in all this "unused land" , and a few years after that, a new buffer zone in Lebanon is needed to protect those settlers and so it goes
Ah, it won't last forever.
Global climate change will make everything uninhabitable and kill anyone who hasn't fled fairly soon.
Even a greater Israel, even peace won't convince world jewry to move there for many reasons
Fucking shocker.
They are not a iota better than Russia.
They're both fascist colonial states run by ridiculously evil people, but I'd definitely rather live in Crimea than the West Bank.
Lebanon might as well admit Israel just annexed their southern border
But if the Lebanese army pushed back, that might anger their US overlords
See why I said hizbollah should never disarm (nor hamas)?
Yeah them restarting this war is turning out great
Hezbollah participated in Iran's defensive war against Israel. They "started" it in the sense that Britain started WWII. Also, you know, Israel was committing ceasefire violations on a regular basis and still had Lebanese territory under occupation.
Israel restarted it
Liebensraum
Lebensraum. There's no love (lieben) in this.
A little late bud, but welcome to the party.
*Lebensraum
Liebensraum would be closer to "love room"
I appreciate the correction, but now I'm going to keep my error for the humour. No fix for you! Sorrynotsorry.
Love shack?
I've heard of that. It's a little ol' place where we can get together.
They've occupied before, why not again? And slowly and steadily expand northward, genociding everything in their path, that's why hezbola was created, and that's why it's needed.
Lebanon's, who Israel does not allow any military equipment for its army, is more or less siding with Israel to take their people's land. It should be a warning to Iranians on getting an Israeli puppet as a new regime.
Isntreal would have to jump over Jordan or Syria and Iraq somehow to take Iranian clay.
Greater Israel includes most of Iraq and Kuwait. Current war on Iran, and "stone age" latest Trump threat, was always Israel's goal for the war to reduce Iran's power to object to that genocidal expansion. So it's not so much jump over... it's plow through Syria, Iraq, Kuwait.
It includes all land between the Euphrates and the Nile. Portions of Egypt and Saudi also in the crosshairs.
How can Isreal afford all these annexations? Does their economy run on spite?
american AID/
Nope, American tax dollars.
So if the US crashes, Israel...
but yes, also racist hatreds, supremacy, and spite.
Why would they need to afford them? The whole point of territorial expansion is to gain land, resources and other forms of wealth. I think you're referring to the occupations, in which case Israel is a wealthy developed country with a strong tech sector that also gets billions upon billions of US aid money annually. They also don't overextend themselves, and many empires past and present have occupied many more people and much more land compared to their core population/area. I mean their only active military operations are on and off bombings in Gaza, more intense bombings in Iran and an actual invasion in Lebanon. This isn't that much in the grand scheme of things, assuming they can control the fallout (which they've been somewhat failing at recently).
Let's be honest here. If they didn't have the US covering their ass at every turn, and US money fuelling their economy, their territorial expansions, violations of sovereignty and human rights abuses would have caused them to have faced even a modicum of retribution. Essentially they're a spoilt child, with a parent who can't see that their kid is part of the problem. But then the parent is a big problem too so the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
They have said that before and had to leave.
They've made a chicken cloud, that should be worth something, right?
