Well once that starts happening I can say there's something Canada's walking the walk on ahead of the US.
Might lose us the election to the conservatives. The conservative government is still calling to aid Israel and stop "helping hamas".
I doubt it, we're very Isreal oriented but there is still a discussion on the ethics of the IDF among folks... even with our media being absolutely disgraceful in their reporting.
Do what's right and then figure out how to spin it. Though this really shouldn't need much spin, a relatively small % of the population are against things like aid, even if they support Israel.
Seriously? Wtf. I really wish I understood the mentality behind some of these parties.
Isn't the airspace under Israeli control?
Yes
Can't wait for Israel to make that bad decision.
Just so it can be hoarded by organizations?
Fuck off.
We've seen this before... literally 4 months ago.
People are starving and Isreal is blocking humanitarian aide. If only a quarter of this aide gets to civilians it'll be worth it.
I don't disagree, but others have tried to assist with aid and it has just been kept in stockpiles, not even making it to the people.
It's just so exhausting.
Source? It’s not even making it past the border.
The most recent reporting is from NBC. Don't assume I support this insanity, saying it's not getting past the border already shows me you're unfamiliar with the geography.
Were you there bro?
Nope, just watching this happed the past 44 years.

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.
-
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 OCTOBER 19 2025
-
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.
