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.

I think if we're following history and making a point we should put new israel on top of your home. No problem right?
That's not an answer to the question though, you are advocating for the dissolution, so let's put it on the table...
If your question wasn't a flippant and dismissive response to my position, then neither was my answer.
No, you made a statement that required a follow up question.. requiring you to elaborate. But I have the feeling that you are answering like this cause you simply refuse to say the quiet part out loud, or are to cowardly to come out and say it. But that's OK. I think most people reading your response get what you mean.
Every accusation is a confession
Sure.. you still are dancing around specifying what your dissolution of the state of Israel would look like.
I'd personally like to see Netanyahu in a small concrete cell in Scheveningen.. just so we're clear.
Im dancing around what i hoped youd eventually figure out: to be clear, i really don't respect your ridiculous red herring)
Go look up red herring, realize how silly you just looked and improve your debate skills.
Elsewhere.
My red herring? You open by making a statement that could easily mean eliminating all Jews and when asked what you mean you refuse to specify (or concoct some kumbaya alternate reality fiction). Instead you blurt that the question is flippant. And now you say red herring as if that somehow absolves you of taking a position that has no basis in reality or a position that just wishes all Jews to dissapear.
The situation in Israël is neither clear cut nor easy. And since one side (Israël) holds all the power I would expect that side to come up with a just and equitable solution that works for Palestinians too.. and that is not what they are currently doing... We see war mongering genocidal idealogs run their campaign of destruction simply because Bibi needs war to stay out of jail. The reason why these right wing extremist settlers are in the Israeli government in turn has its basis in constant shelling of Israel proper. Which continue because Israël refuses to provide their neighbors with an equitable solution and not keep settling the west bank.
Incorrect. Israel should cease to exist ==mean jew elimination no matter how hard or often you say it. Its frankly appalling you dont get this.
Israel should cease to exist. It never should have existed, and what it deserves is dissolution. Your insulting followup "questions" are based on your personal feelings and are a red herring no matter how strong your feelings are.
Seriously, go look up red herring before you forget.
No I'm asking, then what. You throw your red herring around as if that means something.
here is a nice writeup on red herring and even tips on how to use it more effectively than you've been. The first important thing is understanding the term.
I'll help you over this hill youre lyin' on... Your actual argument from the beginning is that "Israel as a state entity should continue to exist."
Your "red herring's" purpose is to obfuscate your final position (Israel as a state should continue, simply because it's already there.)
By diverting attention towards how difficult it could be logistically, you hide from the immorality of israel's existence.
My OG reply simultaneously dismisses your "ok but how?" argument as fallacious and addresses your real point, "israel should exist". If you actually think israel should exist as an ethnostate someplace, i actually think your country should host them and you should move out so they can have it.
You have not done anything since except complain how its not fair i ignored your bad faith.
Can you please take a little more care in your next response?
You can take your strawman and stick it. In the mean time the whole middle east has been building to this and egged on by people like you we will see it get a lot worse.
I'll bet all those Palestinians are very comforted by knowing people like you have their backs. "No no.. you need to stay in your refugee camps because else the evil Jews won"... 70 years down and people like you helped 300k people kicked from their lands back then, become 5 million people in perpetual misery... But you can rest smuggly that you took the moral high ground.. but then it does not cost you anything.. so there.
Finally getting you drop your red herring and fall back on your modus operandi of ad hominem was honestly the best outcome i could ask for on the Internet, yes.
Troll.
