World News
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. 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.

Wut.
Based on the Green Line Be'eri is within Israel, not Gaza, thus they're living in Israel, not occupying Palestine land. How are they "aren't innocent"
They're just trying to say "I think all Israelis should be murdered" without actually having to say that out loud, since openly advocating for a second Holocaust is still out of fashion, at least for now.
Ignoring the first sentence of the article that clearly explains why your comment is stupid, can you elaborate a little more for which situation your comment wouldn't be stupid?
It's simple really. They were Italians and they moved to Israel because Israel basically gives citizenship to anyone of Jewish descent. They are settlers and they are part of an ongoing genocide. Can you please elaborate on how you don't know anything about the history of Israel and Palestine and yet still call people's comments stupid?
How does that make them not Italian? They're still Italian citizens, even Italian blood (if you care about that). It doesn't matter if they're in Palestine, Israel or outer space - they're still Italian.
Well they decided that they were Zionists first and Italian second and decided to move to Israel. These aren't people from us moving to Greece for retirement. As far as I am concerned they moved there to support a Jewish state.
Even if everything you say is true, which I know you cannot prove so I won't ask it of you, they're still Italian. So yes, your comment(s) are stupid.
Not understanding the basics of how citizenship works is pretty stupid.
If we want to talk about history, when was the last time the land immediately outside of Gaza was claimed by any Palestinian government?
Because the boundaries of the Gaza Strip were establish in 1949, so there's no functional legal difference between living there and living in Tel Aviv.
So, if you're saying that you think the murder of all Israelis is justified, which does seem to be what you're implying, kindly have the guts to at least openly say it.
That is like saying every American killed at pearl harbour was a settler and occupier - hell its worse because those were military deaths.
