Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. 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. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.

MODERATORS
It's a left wing newspaper that has been regularly posted here from extremely pro-Palestinian users.
That's not what the article says. They are fleeing their homes because of the airstrikes and evacuation orders. They are attempting to institute rules in the shelters to keep out Hamas (who have repeatedly infiltrated humanitarian zones in order to continue staging military operations from within humanitarian zones).
Hamas and Hezbollah are two very different entities, although they share a lot philosophically. What percentage of deaths in Gaza have been Hamas fighters?
That is... Kind of true but not really. Haaretz is (to ky knowledge) a large left-leaning newspaper that does indeed have a generally good track record but they also have multiple instances of matching blatant Israeli propaganda.
Well, it's good enough to be used by Linkerbaan, breakfastmtn, Dreamer, Silverseren, Keeponstalin, girlfreddy, Sasuke, Collision Resistance, MolotovHalfEmpty, etc.
I know that, but Haaretz = left is only a trend and not a rule that holds 100% of the time. They do good investigative journalism, but they're also Israeli and affected by the Israeli political climate, which is like... that. This results in them occasionally parroting unproven Israeli propaganda. Cosmicrookie dismissing the article because they're Israeli is definitely misguided, but the jury is still out on how widespread the phenomenon they're reporting on is.
Haaretz is still reviewed by Israel before publication, like all Israeli and even Western Media Outlets, but they can still put out credible news. I'd say when it comes to Israeli News Coverage, Haaretz and 972+ Magazine put out the most credible coverage of what's going on. However within Israel they have a very small audience compared to the main Right Wing News Outlets, that may be why they get away with being more critical of the Israeli Government. However that doesn't mean Haaretz is immune to posting misinformation.
They are good to use for many subjects on Israel - Palestine, but it also shows the importance of using multiple sources. Cross referencing articles with works of Historians, like Ilan Pappe or Avi Schlaim to name a couple, and also Human Rights Organizations like B'TSelem or Amnesty, is critical for getting a comprehensive view of the situation.
