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.

Almost like Hamas is systematically using civilians as human shields.
The good guys aren't supposed to shoot the hostages.
Right, Israel should just roll over an accept all death and destructing of their own people just because the Hamas doesn't give a fuck about theirs?
They can defend themselves WITHOUT SHOOTING THE HOSTAGES!
Please explain how? Sit there and eat rockets all day?
The same way the police deal with people that have taken hostages. Or the same way the US military deals with them. BY NOT KILLING THE HOSTAGES.
You are putting an awful lot of effort into purposefully not understanding this concept.
The US doesn't negotiate with terrorists as a policy. the police isn't dealing with people hell bent on murdering them, their family, and all their friends.
The fact that you think your scenarios are related shows you don't understand the situation.
They don't negotiate with terrorists, but they also don't purposefully shoot their hostages either, now do they?
The US negotiates with terrorists every single day. That's just a political slogan. In reality you do want to talk with everyone involved, even if you're planning on betraying and murdering them at the end anyway. The US has negotiated with almost every single terrorist organization in existence worldwide. That's like, the main job of the CIA when they're not too busy smuggling drugs.
Definitely not by murdering and displace people.
Okay, so explain how then.
Use OPIR, COMINT, HUMINT, OSINT, GEOINT and drone imagery alongside sleeper cell infiltrators alongside PRISM and the NSA database to locate the targets, then use one of the following:
Which video game did you get that all out of?
I'm a submariner and have chats with SEALs. What do you do for a living?
Shill on Lemmy
Isntreal boasts having one of the strongest militaries in the region if not in the world until it doesn't benefit its ethnical cleansing plan and then plays dumb.
You know what a strong military does? avoids going in on suicide missions.
It's not a suicide mission if you use all the means available to already have the information you need for the mission available. It's how we got Bin Laden and tossed his dead body in the ocean. It's how we got Saddam. It's how we put a metal shard through Solemani. It's how we tapped Russian underwater cables for years without them even suspecting it.
Israeli Intel: lots of terrorists popping out of random tunnels everywhere. Civilian meat shields present at all points.
Now tell me how it makes such missions any safer knowing that? The situations you described is nothing like the urban warfare in Gaza.
If that's all the intel you think is showing up on SIPR and JWICS then I have beachfront property to sell you in Kansas.
Don't need to.
Lmao they should just stop colonising? And end apartheid? Like how hard is it to understand? A colonised people will keep fighting until they are dead.
It's called counter insurgency. But it involves thinking about the civilian population as real human beings with rights.
Nobody said that but you
Even given that, Israel still has choices about what it does and responsibility for it. Israel is not forced to mass-murder civilians.
Hamas is making sure there aren't any other options.
Yeah the underdog always calls the shots...lmfao what a joke
That's not how real life works.
The last dude was found hiding in a refugee camp. His decision to hide there doomed others in the camp. They do it on purpose because one side will sometimes play by the rules. Terrorists exploit that.
Yep, they have been doing this for decades.
It's almost a win-win for them. Either they avoid getting bombed ... or they don't but they get to play the victim card and point the finger at Israel. That's literally their playbook.
If only there were some way to go into the refuge camp and kill ONLY THE TERRORIST, instead of firing missiles blindly into the camp.
If only the other refugees would rise against Hamas and stop supporting them.
How many of them support Hamas though?
Hamas exists. A Palestinian resistance to Hamas could exist as well (and would likely be supported by Israel and the United States). Yet, there does not seem to be any Palestinian resistance to their violent and corrupt Hamas overlords.
Their choice is either Hamas, a violent and corrupt warlord, or Fatah, a submissive and corrupt government. Both choice will result in them getting oppressed and drive out from their land.
That's not a good yardstick to measure this.
I mean... They could form a new, democratic government? This isn't rocket science. Why are the only choices that current, dysfunctional regimes? They wouldn't be the first country in living memory to create a new democracy, if they chose to attempt it.
Have you fought agaist a militant government with your democratic vote? When is the last time they even have election?
This is so very close to saying Jew are responsible for their own prosecution.
If only Israelis could stop supporting a genocidal extremist government.
If I recall correctly, Israelis were all out in the streets protesting their government just a month or so ago.
Not enough
Yes indeed but they were not to remove the settlements let's be honest! Despite my Muslim background I have nothing against Israel just FYI, this my-side your-side shit is moronic. I have met and partied hard with many Israelis and, if I may say so, the extremism on their side is not part of the common narrative at all. Because most Israelis are lovely modern people, they assume the entire country is like them and genuinely wonder why they are hated so much. Part of me wishes Israel (the secular part) would flat out withdraw from settlements to sweep a leg (one of many) out from under the Muslim extremists and expose the Arabs for the hypocrites that they are. But they never will because Israel has designs of its own my brother, and that is the truth of the matter as much as it may sting.
