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.

National Post: Director of a Gaza hospital says clinics were used by Hamas fighters: Ahmed Kahlot tells Israeli interrogators he was recruited into the terror group as a lieutenant colonel
Palestinian doctors are not trustworthy because many of them are members of the Hamas terrorist organisation.
The subtext of your message under the context of this thread: "Shooting at civilians is ok, actually". Thank you for further pushing the world into barbarism with this disgusting shit.
The 'subtext' of his message is actually pretty clear, no need to make up something yourself...
Hostages in Gaza killed by Israeli military while carrying white flag
Two Christian women killed by IDF sniper fire, says Latin Patriarchate
UN calls for probe as Israeli army accused of killing unarmed Palestinians
All of these are from the LAST WEEK. Putting so much effort to put into question trust towards doctors because they're denouncing crimes against civilians, just everyone else is denouncing from Gaza right now only serves to muddy the waters in the middle of a genocide.
In a normal war, about 90% of all deaths are civilians, according to the UN last year.
The number of civilian deaths in Gaza is at maximum 60%, but likely significantly lower given Hamas tend to overcount and also methodologically don't distinguish between civilians and Hamas terrorists, of which the IDF claim to have killed more than 8,000.
It's not a genocide. Glad to clear that up for you.
What's your source for that figure?
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/dec/09/civilian-toll-israeli-airstrikes-gaza-unprecedented-killing-study
Wow, if only you could read...
Genocide deniers can read they just lie to your face and Shane you into treating them like they're not the monsters they are
Does the IDF have any proof that 8 thousand dead civilians are actually KHHHHHAMAS?
You're sick in the head. Stop denying genocide
So you mean you cannot trust ANY Palestinian doctors? Is that your claim?
Nope. but you can't blindly trust them either, as many of them support or are part of a widely recognized terror organization.
Israel has very good intelligence agencies, they are the ones that can most likely figure out which ones are trustworthy and which are terrorists.
I guess you can't trust me either? I'm not a doctor but I'm Palestinian.
Oh my god, you guys love stuffing words into my mouth. When the fuck did I say anything remotely close to that?
I'm just asking, didn't stuff crap into your mouth.
I'm a random Palestinian on the internet. Do you distrust me?
Currently I neither trust or distrust you. Why do you ask?
Oh no reason at all 😑
This one is the same that soon after said also that confessions were extorted with tortures? Ot he was another one? Hard to keep count given how the IDF is brutalizing medical stuff all over Palestine..
Yes yes it was just torture. Of course, very good faith lmao
Zero photo or video evidence of the "command center" only a testimony of a guy that the IDF 100% tortured which they are known for. Totally not suspicious.
The IDF terrorists kidnapping a hospital director and torturing him into a forced confession is basically expected of them now. Scum of the earth
Why do you hate Jews (the "Scum of the earth" you're referring to) so much that you think they'd torture someone without having ANY evidence of this?

https://www.btselem.org/torture
Yeah dude, totally no evidence Israel uses brutal torture techniques
Looks like they were talking about the IDF specifically. Honest mistake, I'm sure.
If the IDF arrests civilians without disclosing their location to their families or the local authorities or the press, then they can't expect anyone to believe anything that comes out of the mouth of those prisoners is credible.
So wait...are you saying we're supposed to discard this doctor's account because he's a member of Hamas? Wouldn't that mean then that the evidence you shared is untrustworthy and therefore your entire comment is a self-contradiction?
