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.
-
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.

How can you take part in subjecting other people to this kind of thing and still think you are justified in doing it? People that almost certainly had nothing to do personally with what your beef is with the more extreme members of their factions. They also can't think that this serves any point other than to be sadistic, if your goal was complete annihilation you would just shoot them.
I mean, holy fuck.
Admittedly, I'm not going to read this.
How is it even possible?! On the physical level.
I really should have just went to sleep.
Absolutely abhorrent.
Good night, everyone.
Also here's a topical petition

The horrors you commit in service of God. I know not what I believe as far as theology goes, but if there is any sort of benevolent god or gods, these people are going to face the worst punishment they have. If there are no gods, may this world give them the punishment they deserve, as unlikely as that may be. Organized religion is the worst thing to ever befall humanity, and it may wind up being the end of us someday. These actions would have made even most Nazis skittish.
Ngl I am pretty disilluisoned with the whole "Both sides are fighting for religious reasons" thing.
Israel is fighting because zionists are colonizer nazis and palestine is fighting because Israel is colonizer nazis.
War crime Nr. … how much already?

Who thought that the lesson they would take away from the Holocaust would be to "Pay it forward?"
Using DOGS to RAPE people is CLEARLY spelt out in the TORAH you ANTI SEMITE!
-The BBC!
A sentence I neither expected to see nor wanted to.
Like unholy shit, what the hell is going on with those people?
Can't say shit about Isreal even though they're fucked up like this
This some Dirlewanger level shit
Western "civilization" reaction to Israel and Russia are amazing. If this were Russian we will see these war crimes in every media 24h , while with Israel, you get arrested or questioned for denouncing the crimes.
No dude what the actual fuck
What the fuck
And that's what we know, imagine all the things that will probably never get out.
I was reticent to post this, given that it's based off of one person's hearsay. What tipped me over is that it is confirmation of stories also relayed by Palestinian prisoners in the fall of 2025 (linked in the article) about the goings on in the Sde Teiman torture camp.
Al-Jazeera by the way reports that the IDF soldiers who were at the center of a very public case of gruesome sexual abuse of prisoners in the same torture camp are returning to duty.
End the genocidal Israeli apartheid regime. Boycott Divest Sanction. Criminals at the Hague.
"Source I've never seen claims someone on Twitter heard something outrageous from an anonymous source"
Did this happen? Maybe. Is this upvoted solely because of people's pre-existing biases? Yup.
I can offer up a story on it from a British Business magazine, if the Novara source seems biased or uncredible.
https://www.ibtimes.co.uk/un-report-systematic-sexual-violence-israeli-detention-1792474
Honestly, I hope this one is fake. It's fucked up if real.
Novara Media is a socialist news organization, so they definitely have a bias, but their informational reporting is no less credible than the BBC or Guardian. They have a decently large presence in the UK.
X to doubt.
You're wrong. I've been reading/listening to Novara every day for over five years. They are left wing in opinion, and 100% factual in their reporting. They are more responsible about correcting errors than the BBC or the Guardian. As the other response, I would have ditched them at any point if I found them to be dishonest.
Why would their factual reporting not be reliable? Their core audience is extremely well educated who would not tolerate blatant falsehoods like right-wing tabloid audiences do.
And yet, everybody smashed upvote on this rage bait without reading it. Education and wealth only gets you so far.
TBF they didn't really make direct factual claims here, they just quoted the sources, so even if it's not true it's not a lie. I'm not sure how often Fox News just straight up lies either.
Fox News lies often. And the BBC does this kind of thing all the time.
One source appears to be the Palestinian Centre for Human Rights. It says in the article.
Where did they get the information from?
Obscure self styled human rights organizations are often used to launder information and give it more credibility. This isn’t HRW, Amnesty, or B’Tselem. They aren’t perfect either, but more credible.
They got the information from someone who was raped by a dog. It says in the article.
The analyst in "says analyst" was a guy on Twitter.
It is mentioned that PCHR recorded similar testimony from a Palestinian source later on.
Again, maybe, maybe not.
"geopolitical expert" it says. Here's his Google scholar page. Seems legit. I mean I guess he is still "a guy on twitter", in that he has a Twitter account
What the dog doin'?
War crimes apparently, the type of man made horrors beyond most human's comprehension. I don't get how we have such a large delta with the horrors preformed by israel and the coverage of the nation in the west. Being called anti-Semitic for calling out using dog rape as a tool to torture prisoners seems a bit bizarre.
Rooting for Israel to get nuked at this point.
That's the goal from the US evangelical point of view. Makes you think.
Rooting for us all to get nuked in the west tbh.
Israel should be disarmed.

I am tired boss. I am tired.
