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.

That's anttisemetic. Both side are semite but you think it is in their nature to fight each other. Yes Any group of people can live in peace again like many periods before that you chose ignore. If germany who almost exterminate jews is not israel strongest ally, if countries that was enemy in the deadliest conflict ever can be become allies palestinians and israel can to.
You clearly don't believe in any solution neither a one or two state but you are in denial and don't realize it
Palestinians said you end occupation, we drop arms. Certain arabs offered a one state since the beginning, before the nekba. The plo also offered it
There was people like you who was tslking about how aparteith can't end in south africa because black South african would have took vengence for all the year of oppression
Did you ever ask any rrgular palestinian what they mean by from river to the sea palestine is free?
It has nothing to do with their nature, nobody is born hating anyone, that's learned behavior.
Both sides have stated, repeatedly, that they believe they are owed exclusive rights to the territory of Israel to the exclusion of all others.
That belief is inherently the source of the conflict. It's taught and learned and re-inforced by repeated violent acts.
It can't be stopped by anyone other than an external 3rd party stepping in and treating them like the misbehaving children they are. "I don't care who started it, both of you go to your rooms."
But nobody has the will to step up and tell them to knock this shit off.
If you don't believe that it is in their blood, why do you believe if israel end occupation , palestinians would still try to destroy israel? And why did you said a one state with equal rights will never happen when history is full of enemies turning to ally? Why are you ignoring one state proporsal by arabs?
"From the River to the Sea". Both the Palestinians and Israelis hold on to this. The only thing either will be satisfied with is the complete obliteration of the other.
There needs to be a forced separation. "You, go over here, you go over there, leave each other the fuck alone."
They won't do it themselves because they legitimately believe they have a right to ALL the territory.
This is why you get the numerous illegal Israeli settlements in Palestinian territory over and over and over again.

Israel isn't going to stop it, they don't want to stop it. They want full occupation.
Palestine physically can't stop it.
You didn't answer a single question i asked in my last response. And from river to the sea palestinians means different thing from different person. The original use was by plo to refer to a one state and many other anti occupation believe the same. Just because some people hijacked the term doesn't mean we can't use it. Similar how conservstive hijacked the term woke from black people. You can disagree with the formulation i have no problem with that but please don't use it to talk about how all antioccupation people want to destroy israel. It is factually false
Maybe yes maybe not. Other people when was occupied may have thought the same like indian. Indian still got their freedom after 200 years. The longest occupation i believe was 700 years.
You can't expect palestinians to do nothing , at some point people are not in mental state to think rationally and to not take revenge legimate or not. That is not an justification but an acknowledge of the context and the issue to try to solve it.
If you lived in a word where someone can kill your family and your neighborhood and oppress other people you know and the police and the government know about it and let it happen . Not that only but they are protecting the killer. Trust me you would take vengence and cause a massacre
You misunderstand, I'm not here to answer your questions and have no obligation to answer them.
I'm explaining to you the situation on the ground over there with all the links necessary to understand it.
It's not that the Palestinians need to do more or have been doing the wrong things, it's that after being blockaded by Israel since the 90s they are physically incapable of doing anything effective. They don't have the resources.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blockade_of_the_Gaza_Strip
They can't do it themselves, Israel won't allow anything else, it's going to require an external 3rd party to stop it and the world powers don't have the will to do it.
So what we're going to see is the inevitable back and forth until one side or the other are annihilated. There is no "winning" here.
Whatever their a chance it happen or not is not the point. No matter how impossible something is people should do the right thing and not dropping arms
How Israel succeeded in their plan means that no one is winning? t It would mean the genocidal state won with the complicity of the major western countries and the Arab leaders traitors . You are even contracting yourself in the same post. You say that Palestinians can't do nothing about Israel finishing it's final solution and at the same time claim that Palestinians can destroy Israel
Instead of both siding the conflict and dropping your arms . You should acknowledge the core issue , you should support never giving up. You should support any action trying to change the situation no matter how futile it is.
You clearly lack critical thinking and is too naive . This is my last reply to this useless conversation where you ignore every single argument
