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.

The Zionist regime is completely out of control. They commit genocide and launch aggressive attacks on countries and face literally no consequences . Global security is at stake.
That's the most worrying thing, if you can't hold Israel responsible for this in the face of international law, literally nothing is stopping any other country from doing the same.
The US will raise a stink if anyone else does it. They will allow israel free reign .
There are high ranking Hamas officials in Qatar. They openly conduct diplomacy there on behalf of Hamas and it is quite likely they are involved in the operation of Hamas. Why doesn't Israel just do airstrikes on Qatar and execute them like they executed Ismail Haniyeh in Iran? Are they more afraid of smol bean Qatar than Iran?
Nope. It's because the US won't let Israel attack Qatar but not only the US will let Israel loose on Iran as we see now, the US will defend Israel against retaliation, both militarily and otherwise. Like we have seen the US do for the past 19 months.
Everything is under control.
You're right. The negotiations were a ruse. If Iran can't respond decisively they will repeat the approach used in Lebanon and Syria, decapitation strikes and degrading their military while fomenting internal rebellion. The goal is obviously regime change.
You know all those weapons we diverted from Ukraine to Isreal and the middle east, I don't think Isreal is acting alone.
The Zionist regime is mostly just another word for religious extremist, doesn't matter what their religion is or if they actually believe it. What matters is that their followers & supporters believe it.
Sorry, what exactly is your point that goes beyond the comment you're replying to?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zionism 🤷♂️ seems pretty specific to me. I didn't read the whole article though. Maybe I'm missing something.
But yeah, either way, like the other person asked: what's your point?
My point is Zionism is imperialism & fascism rebranded, & if you live in the US then prepare. Trump idolizes dictators for a reason & this attack is part of the plan.
Trump's base is largely composed of indoctrinated followers via a network of "faith" & "thought" leaders, who idealize an authoritarian world.
Years ago powerful individuals found a symbiotic relationship with politicians, working together to systematically brainwash the vulnerable, ignorant, & gullible. In return they benefited financially, while being able to discriminate & punish people trying to leave their control systems.
They found keeping people down, anxious, confused, scared, traumatized, & complacent was all they needed to gain consent. People agreed to be monitored & surveilled. For low wages or a music subscription, people blindly accepted the terms. They dismantled the protections & no one did anything.
Once Iran retaliates, you'll be expected to accept the narrative. Slave labor is what they're after & you're the target. The dissenters, resisters, etc. will be made to accept Trump as their king... unless.
Sorry, but you seem to have really wanted to throw in your conspiracy bullshit. That isn't to say it's entirely untrue (just for the most part), but still very much unrelated.
It definitely rings true. I would've dismissed it more easily years ago but these days these things seem more plausible. It's a scary thought.
It feels kind of related too though, right? You were both talking about at least tangential things. The powers that be are allowed to do anything because the public allows it. Kinda? 🤷♂️ I dunno.
