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.

They was warned multiple time
The Houthis warned Philippines that they will attack their ships? When did that happen, or are you full of shit as usual? They are often shooting ships indiscrimately, there were even cases of them hitting aid going to gaza or their allies ships. They literally said that they're terrorizing international shipping canal to show solidarity with hamas, backed by Russian and Iranian rockets.
That's a blockade, yeah. Israel has been doing that on and off to Palestine for like 40 years.
Israel has been blocking international shipping lane/sea? Weird, I thought they only blocked a port without affecting unrelated countries.
https://media2.s-nbcnews.com/i/MSNBC/Components/ArtAndPhoto-Fronts/AP_GRAPHICS/RT_ISRAEL-BLOCKADE-C.gif
Israel has been attacking any ship that aimed for Gaza. The latest case they abducted a dozen Civilians in international waters. before they bombed a civilian ship bound to bring food to Gaza off the coast of Malta.
So yes, Israel has been attacking targets in international water quite recently.
So internationally that makes them terrorists. What's bizzare to me is how hard it is for lemmy to say the same thing about houthis
Israel attacking Civillians in international waters make the Houthis terrorists?
You're being absurd. Who's said houthis aren't terrorists? Literally every major world power has engaged in terrorism on scales that are hard to fathom. The issue is that the word is fucking useless because one man's terrorist is anothers freedom fighter, it's all just perspective.
We can call them belligerent nation currently taking part in genocide and apartide while occupying three of it's neighbors. To me at least that's more descriptive then the same word used for someone who shoots up ten people at a gas station or whatever.
Literally multiple people on lemmy, with my own eyes. There was even a comment saying they're the good force in this fucked up world
Who here said that.
Bro I'm not about to spend literal working hours digging thru lemmy history looking for few comments amongst ocean of them, be realistic. I've genuinely never even used search function on this app (boost).
You'd be surprised at the shit people say. Are you new to the internet?
Ok so what you're saying is no one here that you know of has refused to call houthis terrorists? So what exactly is the relevance of that particular tidbit of information?
I'm not surprised no, I'm curious as to why you care or what difference the existence of comments that may or may not exist had here now.
... it's like talking to a wall
It is, you're claiming someone is doing something they aren't and when pressed you can't cite a single time it has happened nor why that might actually be relevant.
We warned the Houthis, too, so I guess it's OK to bomb some.
I warned my neighbor that i would shoot him if he tried to pick my back door one more time. He warned me that he would kill my wife. Clearly we are both the same
Did you warn your mailman not to drop off mail at your criminal neighbor's house or you would blow up his truck?
No, but I did warn my mailman not to deliver the ammo to my neighbor who has already killed my uncle's entire family and is promising to murder my wife next.
We can play this game forever. The reaction to genocide isn't worse than genocide.
Anything less than genocide goes, I guess.
You guess very stupidly, and without evidence. No one suggested "anything goes", and you're once again implying an action that occurred in an attempt to stop genocide is isolated act of aggression.
It doesn't "go", Houthis don't just get to sink ships, that's not the argument being made.
Israel is actively slaughtering children, and they've been warned for well over a year now to stop or ships heading their way will be attacked.
I know you understand the concept, you'll happily attribute the death of civilians indiscriminately bombed in a besieged enclave to the resistance militants and disgustingly call them human shields... But here they aren't living in an open air prison that they aren't allowed to leave, here they took a job on a ship going to a state that's currently unapologetically live streaming a genocide.
Houthis is an armed political and religious movement not an ethnic group within Yemen. Yes, it's ok to bomb them
And the people on the ship were Filipinos...
I feel sorry for them. The genocide should end it will save everybody lives. The houthis didn't attack any ship during the cease fire so why the countries that have the obligation to do the best to stop it isn't doing all they can?
They was warned multiple time
How are you this ignorant? The houthi basically started as a civil war in Yemen, not some moral high ground against Israel.
Stop re-writing the history to serve your narrative.
The saudis backed up yemen dictator Seleh and started the civil war. You love rewritting history
How what you just said is remotely similar to what you said before? So were houthis at war before Israel invaded Gaza or not?
I answer enough questions you asked. Answer my questions first
Your question makes no sense. Palestine is not part of NATO. What defense obligations are you talking about?
Don't act ignorant. My questions was
Do you believe in international law? Do you acknowledge that Israel is occupying Palestinians , acknowledge all the human right reports showing israel is indeed killing civilians Did you justify collective punishment when you said a big chunk of palestinians support Hamas?
As members of the UN all states are obligated not to recognize Israel’s sovereignty or territorial claims over the occupied territories, including East Jerusalem. They must not provide aid or assistance

Look at how you claim that i am the stupid one when i provide sources from international law about my claims while you keep spreading lies without any sources
You are the ignorant one saudis started the war.
Zionists like you are the master of rewriting history
Saudi arabia are not zionists you goofball
They are, ziotard

https://www.israelhayom.com/2025/07/03/revealed-saudi-arabias-intercepted-some-of-the-drones-from-iran/
Dude, please stop being willfully stupid. Just because Saudis are not allies with Iran or their proxies, does not mean they are zionists.
Stop being willfully stupid. Why saudis protecting israel under what obligation? Why israel have military cooperation with saudis. If you support israel unconditionally you are a zionkst simple as that
They are fighting against Iran, not defending Israel. The two hate each other. Clown, not everything that happens in the world happens because of Jews. They have been at each other's throats for a very long time. In fact, almost no one there likes Russia or Iran, you're one of the rare ones defending them.
Clown nobody blame jews for everything. I hate Muslim idf soldiers as much as all other idf soldiers killing civilians
