A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
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.

Surely Biden & Co. will stop all money and weapons now, right?
Even if they stop now, Trump will just restart it after inauguration. They should've done it a year ago.
If the US stopped the flow of weapons and money right now, Israel wouldnt survive 3 months.
Which is when Trump gets in office. They could probably manage if they have a guarantee from him that they'll restart deliveries. It might just delay the genociding a smidge.
Many other countries provide them weapons
US 60%, Germany 30% If the US stopped, Germany would quickly follow suit. Without the protection of big buddy US they would get scared to end up in Den-Hague. Also other deliveries like UKs F-35 parts would be worth little without the US main deliveries. The moment the US stops supporting Israel the support of other countries would crumble.
God I hope they will. Genuinely, as an european, I really hope we hold germany accountable for this
As a German, yes, please
Why? They already lost. They're the type to just torpedo it all the way, its Joever to them.
Do you think maybe that's because Netanyahu has literally no incentive to comply knowing that US material aid is unconditional?
Oh well, I guess send them some bombs and ammo then.
This is like giving someone trying to drown another person 10 minutes to stop.
Now I'm curious to see how the U.S. will react.
State Department deputy spokesman Vedant Patel said there would be no change to U.S. policy at the end of the 30-day deadline the U.S. set for Israel to improve conditions in Gaza.

So unexpected...
Meanwhile a bunch of fascist hooligan in amsterdam gets beat up and it's a pogrom lmao
Now it's a 45-day deadline, and this time I mean it, buster.
Oh no! The Americans will have to say Stop! again.
This time there wasn't even a strongly worded letter. Moral bankruptcy.
Any state department gaslighting to hasbara this?
List of people who are suprised:
Genocide Joe just wanted to give us a little facism for a year to ease is into the full-on fascism that is to come.
Thanks Joe for being such a giant piece of shit that a trump return became inevitable.
Bomb tel aviv.
Damn that sucks
