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.

He literally said in his plan with Bibi that he wanted to send Palestinians to something like 20 different countries. Ie, he's not planning to take any here in the US. He's going to force displace people, spread out the diaspora, and try to take all the profits and suffer no poor consequences.
Not to worry, Palestinians. Once Israel and the US turn Gaza into a gaudy magaland theme park, I'm sure Trump and friends will welcome you back with open arms. /s
They cant leave through Israel, or by the sea, and only through rafah if they get humanitarian approval as a medical patient. So they cant leave regardless of what the stupid leaflets say. So its just intended to terrify Palestinians. AKA terrorism.
It's intended to justify killing them when they don't leave. AKA genocide.
I'd been thinking up to now that its the land the Israelis want, but if that were the most important thing to them, they'd be letting Palestinians leave the area. The fact that they wont let them out means they mostly want every single Palestinian dead, and stealing the land comes second. Thats a pretty striking level of pure evil.
Serious question. Is leaving an option? Is there some kinda line they can go stand in that will relocate them to another country?
Feels like that scene in Independence Day.
"What is it you want us to do?"
"DIE. DIEEEEEEEE!"
American here, I'd be willing to welcome Palestinians and Israelis into my country.
We have plenty of room for both.
Yeah well, the half that's in power don't want immigrants. I doubt Trump is going to welcome them.
No, the borders to Egypt and Israel are closed. There are limited exceptions for medical treatment in Israel. Egypt let in people with the right paperwork (typically by paying a bribe) at the beginning of the war.
It’s very unusual for people not being able to flee from a warzone. Not giving them the option to leave is against the convention on refugees.
The Israeli navy makes it impossible to leave by boat.
Israel could allow Gazans to flee to the West Bank, but so far haven’t done so. Egypt also isn’t interested in opening the border so far, for fear of the refugees not being able to return at a later date. Egypt is afraid of another terrorist group in its country, especially one that threatens the peace with Israel.
As a German I'm absolutely horrified by this cruel and inhumane repetition of history.
As a multi-national, multi-ethnic, mutt, I am too.
Given that part of my mutt-makeup is Austrian, I'm offended that Austria and our northern neighbor have greatly contributed to this. Our deserved guilt over the Holocaust blinded us to decade after decade of human rights abuses by Israel.
We've seen this coming for a long time and, as a taxpaying contributor to the biggest funder of Israel, I'm ashamed.
Well if we keep solving religious persecution by allowing each group to fuck off to their own country, this will keep happening. Religion should not be the guide for any countries policy, its absurd.
Sick ceasefire bro
Imagine there are people who want you dead for existing. They tell you to leave but you have nowhere to go, because they took your home and nobody wants you. You don't have anything and aren't even able to leave, even if you wanted to. So they come, they kill your family and they kill you.
Now imagine there are people in other parts of the world, they have everything and they didn't even know you, but they consider it served you right.
This world is fucked up.
And people wonder why they sign up for Hamas…
They tell you to leave but ~~you have nowhere to go, because they took your home and nobody wants you.~~
Actively block you from leaving and attack you when you try to leave via "safe routes".
FTFY
Hey everyone, this guy is a mod who had previously banned pro Palestine comments a few months back. Neat to see you finally changed your mind on the active genocide.
Edit: turns out he has not. Scroll down and see him continue to hold that palastinians do not have a right to defend themselves.

"Israel has sparked global outrage"
YetI have to learn this from a fringe platform, so small it is allowed to report on these things.
There is no 'global outrage' , nobody even knows this.
Just as nobody has seen the horrificly malnourished Palestinian hostages .
