A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
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.

The general Israeli populace needs to come to terms with the fact that their government is now committing a very specific war crime that makes their prisons for Palestinians look like Nazi concentration camps.
There is no positive way to spin this. Starving prisoners is literally what the Nazis did.
They have come to terms with it.
Israelis fully support it.
For Palestine's sake, we really have to hope that it's not all - or even a majority - of Israelis. I've seen the footage of protests there, and heard interviews with Israelis who reject genocide. They give me some hope that the entire country hasn't lost its mind.

On the bright side, the non-Jewish Israelis don't support ethnic cleansing. Though they are commonly known as Palestinians.
Too late. Now israel is going to do the final solution. Those action would have meant something pre 7 of october
Too. Fucking. Late. As many feel about America after electing Trump again, that's how I feel about Israel.
I'm middle-aged. I bought the propaganda all these years. I am done. If the Arabs want to steam roll the entire region? Fucking go for it.
What's killing me is how Jews have trashed their international goodwill. Now it's in-your-face obvious that AIPIC is running our governments. Israel is committing genocide and the vast majority of the population seems all-in. You can't speak ill of the country or it's people or you are excoriated. Hell, I might get banned for this post! The "Jews run the world" people must be having a fucking heyday.
Any Israeli's here? What's the view from the inside? Do you not see how your world is eventually going to implode? And again, the antisemitic nuts have only gained power over all this. Fuck me, you're already geographically isolated. How do you think this plays out?!
Jews have not trashed their international goodwill, zionists have. Many Jews show condemnation of the genocide in Gaza and no reservations about calling it that. See: Jewish Voices for Peace. Equating the two is the problem, but it's not up to the Jews to say, "Not on our name" as much as it is for everyone else to say, "Zionists sure do sound like and act like Nazis." Jews shouldn't even have to voice their disdain for the false association because it's an antisemitic idea created and spread by Zionists and Christian Fascists.
It would be more accurate if you remove the word now for this
their government is now committing a very specific war crime that makes their prisons for Palestinians look like Nazi concentration camps
"Israel's Supreme Court determined antisemitic."
So the Supreme Court of Israel is led by Hamas then.
/s
Didn’t mention anything about the ongoing genocide though, hmm. That’s kosher.
Yeah and they also didn't mention anything about any of the other thousands of court cases that weren't this one, because that's not how court judgements work.
They've ruled on other cases relating to the "occupation"
Per the article:
The decision was a rare case in which the country’s highest court ruled against the government’s conduct in Gaza in recent years.
Let them start cooking
Damn, almost sound like work camps
