Ukraine starving for old mortar shells and a few F16's. Meanwhile the IDF gets a boatload of F35's with bunker busters for free to blow up hospitals with.
Ukraine did not invade russia after russia attacked Ukraine. Ukraine is simply trying to survive.
Israel on the other hand......
This is bullshit. Any additional support for israel is bullshit.
Meanwhile they're restricting food and medical supplies for the people they're genociding 🙄
And killing journalists who might report on the other atrocities.
So excessive. I'm ashamed that my tax dollars have contributed to genocide.
Contact your representatives and let them know, at least.
I lost the ability to comment on insta bc I commented in my representatives page. He is not only an elected representative, he is pastor at Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atl. This is the pulpit MLK led hia movement from. So yes, I am extra mad that he has not even made a statement. I have already done the emails, they don't care. So I figured a public comment on his insta post would stir something up, it did. Meta told me I'd be stfu for a while.
So once I was able to comment again I stated that meta can fuck right off and I'll be signing up for telegram. At least journalists can post freely there.
I think naming and shaming would help.
Why, but just why?
Political support for Israel among the older generations, the people who vote.
The same zionists are on the ballot for both young and old people. Israel support is bipartisan; voting won’t stop AIPAC and the Zionist lobby from buying whoever you vote for.
Thanks. But I mean, doing so does not really help in calming the tensions between the two involved in the war. I may be wrong, though.
US Military Industrial Complex giveth (Ukraine), US Military Industrial Complex taketh (Israel)
What's the difference between giveth and taketh? These both seem like taketh.
They're giving Ukraine the ability to defend itself and taking away Palestine's ability to defend itself
Those refugee children aren't going to shoot themselves.
Meanwhile, an orphan kid in Gaza wants to show Hamas his pet rock.
Anadolu Agency is Turkish state propaganda.
OK, here's The Times of Israel:
244 US cargo planes, 20 ships deliver over 10,000 tons of military equipment to Israel — report
I ~~like~~ am amused that the number of ships is higher.

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.
