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.
-
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.

No, the ones bombed by the IDF.
Has anyone on Lemmy ever read about Hamas before a month ago? Hiding bombs and murderers behind children is what the world knows of them. It's fact. Cute watching you all catching up on the conflict in 15 minutes.
How many people defending Israel now have read about their funding and support for Hamas? Netenyahu's government supports the most extreme of the militant groups within Gaza purposely to keep Palestine divided. Even his supporters in Israel are aware of and critique this fact.
is there further reading on this? I know in the past Israel sent material to Hamas (Governor's of Gaza) in attempts to curtail rocket attacks
Here is one op-ed article from the Times of Israel about the topic: For years, Netanyahu propped up Hamas. Now it’s blown up in our faces
Washington Post article from 2014: How Israel Helped Create Hamas
Thank you for the articles
Whataboutism. My comment did nothing of the sort
Yea these people are so confused in their own stupidity they end up being pro-terrorist.
No.
Yes.
Happy to help.
Really cuz I've been asking for evidence for 3 weeks and nobody has bothered to link even a single source with 3rd party confirmation.
Edit: Literally since Israel bombed the AP building 2 years ago I have never gotten a single source in response. Nobody even tries.
Here is an analysis of this Hamas strategy by the NATO:
Hybrid Threats: Hamas’ use of human shields in Gaza
Since 2007 per your peer comment https://stratcomcoe.org/publications/hybrid-threats-hamas-use-of-human-shields-in-gaza/87
Yeah the "Hamas using kids as human shields" thing has been tried and true IDF propaganda for years.
Hamas operations in Gaza aren't taking place from military sites, because THEY DO NOT EXIST. Israel will not allow them, because why the fuck would they??
Gaza is an open air prison that is incredibly densely populated. With no area ever possibly being cordoned off for military actions, where would one recommend they do these things from? You live in a prison, you work with that you have.
They're not using human shields, they're just launching their attacks from the only options that exist to them.
A prison of their own making, mind you.
Are you saying that Israel, the occupying, is not responsible for the suffering of the country they occupied?
