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.

What the fuck is antisemitic about arresting a genocidal maniac? "Liberal Democractic Nation" is not how I would describe that settler colonial fascist state. A bunch of fucking smug, self-righteous, land thieves is a more appropriate description. Besides, the term "Semitic" to describe Jews in Israel is inappropriate. Most of them are of European or American origin. Semitic people or Semites is a term for an ethnic, cultural or racial group associated with people of the Middle East, including Arabs, Jews, Akkadians, and Phoenicians. Judaism is not a race, it's a religion (i.e. a cult, or more appropriately a "death cult").
I'm guessing by this troll's logic, ICC is also islamaphobic for issuing an arrest warrant against the hamas leader.
🤣
He's also just been muted by the moderators. If you look at his profile, he's only been on Lemmy for 9 hours. Probably a bot or ex-Xitter troll.
Murder a million, two millions born = population increase.
You are an idiot.
And a nazi
How is 45000 dead an in increase in population? Where do you get your information from? Seriously, what are you high on right now, nothing you say makes any sense. You sound like Alex Jones.
According to this site there has been an increase although I'm not sure how they get their figures in a war zone that nobody is allowed in or out of (other than the IDF stormtroopers that is):

That said, populations do generally increase wherever there's starvation and hardship. It's a human instinct to survive by producing more offspring.
The figures of those murdered by Israel is probably closer to 200,000 but we won't know until the dust settles and Netanyahu is rightfully hanging by the neck for warcrimes.
This is likely a projection that doesn't take into account the past year.
Preach it. The 45k number is unbelievably low.
Must be all the settler building contractors moving in to divvy up the land for beachfront accomodation. One thing's for sure, the population of Israel keeps increasing because every yahoo with a yamaka wearing grandad gets instant citizenship.
You're correct of course but just for the future it's "yarmulke" in english. Yeah I know, it's silly, but so are a lot of words.
