Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. 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.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. 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.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
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.
That's all the rules!

I find the hysteria over the the top. Like, they targeted and killed two Hamas commanders. So when the article quotes someone saying they targeted civilians in tents, that should be called out as a lie.
Seems like the airstrike caused some flammable materials to catch fire and it spread to the tents. The resultant fire was obviously not intentional.
Hey, maybe don't make camp with Hamas commanders? Maybe point them out on day one of the war so everyone can go back home? This should have been over in November.
You find the hysteria over the top? Over 30,000 innocent people have been slaughtered and your reaction is "but hamas" This is one of countless war crimes commited by this genoicidal state and reponding with "what about the other side" is quite frankly abhorent.
I think what is going on here is that this person would have to admit america has committed awful and repeated war crimes over the years, just like Israel is now.
You can tell because they use Americas past wars/incidents as a standard to compare against.
Their position is so unpopular here because most people here would never hold up America as a standard for international relations, unless to illustrate what NOT to do.
