"Israel's" Minister of Strategic Affairs, Ron Dermer, a close ally of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, reportedly spoke “with his usual arrogance” to senior Republican officials, detailing what US President Donald Trump “must do", according to Yanir Cozin, a diplomatic correspondent for Israeli Army Radio, who cited a senior Israeli official.

However, Dermer’s approach appears to have backfired. Trump’s inner circle reportedly told him that “Netanyahu is manipulating the American president,” a characterization that did not sit well with Trump.

The cited official noted that “Trump hates nothing more than appearing to be manipulated.”

[Meta] This is the first time I've seen a web page embed in a Lemmy post and I'm trying to figure out how and why.

Edit: Did Hexbear do a version upgrade just recently? Is this happening on any other post?

Oh boy I remember the age of html frames like it was yesterday. Frames. Frames everywhere. Entire websites made of frames.

You just sparked a memory I hadn't thought about in ages lol

People used to embed those "what type of ___ are you?" Quiz results at the bottom of their pages or their comment signatures.

So many signatures that were like:

~Graveyards are full of honourable souls~... Here is my DS friend code for trading on Pokemon Pearl: 00036373

and then an embedded jpeg of a white box with a picture of a dragon in it and rainbow papyrus text that reads "you are a BLUE dragon. That means you are creative and love the arts! Paste this html in your signature to let everyone know your results"

Every signature would have 3 frames, poorly formatted, with scrollbars for each one.

The nav sidebar would also have a scrollbar.

The under construction header with a gif of construction workmen would also be poorly formatted and have a horizontal scrollbar.

3 frames of the blog itself would have scroll bars.

Certain news sites and video hosts get embedded like this. I don't know if those sites are returning a different sort of embed data when hexbear tries to fetch something about them or if they're being handled in a special way, but it's been like this for a while now. I kind of trust that the lemmy/hexbear fork devs have done something to stop the embedding from being a security risk since I'd expect an outcry and the feature to be disabled otherwise, but it does kind of sketch me out every time I see it.

Yeah it happened here too. It was also a link to Almayadeen website.

[-] buckykat@hexbear.net 9 points 23 hours ago

This is one of the only news sites that doesn't block embedding

Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
