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.

Your source does not distinguish between military casualties and civilian ones which is the center of the entire argument. It comes self reported from hospitals and then taken at face value that they were not militants.
BuT HaMaS!
ahh yes, please tell me about all the women and children being crushed under buildings that we're there working at the behest of HaMaS! Please, like actually tell me, because the burden of proof is on you there.
Those buildings wouldn't collapse if there weren't Hamas tunnels under them. That's literally the issue right now and why entire sections are falling down.

@galloog1 @TinyPizza What kind of delusional crap is that? Most buildings aren't designed to absorb an Israeli mortar round
Wow! Just vilifying the victims here
Most building are more robust than that. Israel is allegedly using bunker busters that penetrate the ground and hit the tunnels. You categorically do not know what you are talking about when it comes to fires.
I'm not vilifying the victim when the target is Hamas. They are not victims. They put themselves there intentionally (war crime) to create this dilemma which is in response to their massive attack on civilians which was defined in their actual orders. (War crime)
No one in Israel is claiming they are doing anything but targeting Hamas. Hamas is still holding civilian hostages and took credit for the attack.
When someone tells you who they are, you should believe them.
@galloog1 No!! Most buildings are NOT build to survive and explosion Where the fuck did you even get that from!! More to the point if you're after one terrorist in one building you don't blow the whole thing up! That's just fucking stupid!
And the victims WOULD BE THE OTHER RESIDENTS OF THE BUILDING ISRAEL JUST MURDERED
Holy hell the stuff you say is patently dumb. Israel must be desperate to want you defending them. Goes around acting like an explosives expert and architect. What a garbage country Israel must be to have trash like you excusing their casual genocide.
Resorting to name calling instead of addressing my points. I will admit, you are very good at creating a narrative that resonates with people who have no idea how any of this works.
You're dumb if you think buildings can survive mortar rounds.
Hey stupid, is name calling.
What they did was actually call an action stupid. But if you weren't either stupid or just busy creating your own narrative, you wouldn't make such a baseless claim.
