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 bet you think that attack on the Israeli military base was a terrorist attack right?
I'm not the person you are replying to, but yes, an attack on an Israeli base is a legitimate attack, not a 'terrorist attack'.
Thank you. I'm not sure if you recall, but in the news (not sure which site but I'm assuming some Israeli one) they portrayed an attack on some Israeli base as "murdering teenagers".
Those "teenagers" were 18 and were enlisted to the IDF. Those were soliders killed, not just some random teenagers off the street.
Heh. Typical. Technically correct, but used in a way meant to be wildly misleading. Something similar is done regarding gun crime victims. One misleading stat involves "children" who are victims of gun violence. Some of these 'victims' are gang members in their late teens or early twenties.
Israel is attacked so much by terrorists it is difficult to know which one you are referring to.
Can you clarify which sudden and deliberate attack on a fellow allies military installation you mean?
"Attacked all the time" yeah I bet theirs people dying left and right in Israel right? People struggling to survive? No, that's the victims of Israels attacks.
:Points to the October 2023 attack:
:Points to 70+ years of oppression:
What an easily manipulated little fool. Fascists are just reaping and reaping what they've sown. Reducing words to simple labels for "us" vs. "them" without looking at how those actions compare and contrast.
By definition I'm the good guy, by definition you're the bad guy, anything else is too hard on my feeble brain.
It's not your fault, you might forget to breathe if you try to apply that thing.
So after picking through your word salad, I take it you’ve lost track of which terrorist attack on Israel you are referring to then?
