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 downvoted you because frankly I think that is a dumb and irrelevant thing to say. The world doesn't work based on your, or mine, or anyone else's personal sense of justice, nor should it. That's why international law exists.
Under international humanitarian law, Hamas using sick people as a human shield is giving the IDF every excuse and legal justification they need to counter-attack the hospitals that they are using to state those attacks. Period.
I would vastly prefer if Hamas didn't do that. I would vastly prefer that the IDF didn't have legal justification for attacking hospitals. But what I prefer doesn't mean shit.
But I guess when you can't argue against the substance of what I'm saying you can only make embarrassing claims about the timing of meaningless internet points.
Oh well, whatever. Have a good one.
Lol, and you completely ignore me saying "Not all laws are just. Not everything just is a law."
If you want to focus on the law, go right on ahead. I don't even know why you'd bother replying to someone who clearly states they are not focusing on the law telling them what the law says.
Let's be real. You're biased towards Israel so you argue against anything that criticizes it. You don't want me to say killing civilians is unjust because it's critical of Israel's behavior, which you cannot allow.
Just admit it. You'd come across as more genuine than whatever you're doing now.
I don't disagree or take issue with that part.
You responded to me. I responded to you. That's how conversations work among people who aren't terminally online.
I was talking about the law because the law is objective. Whether you personally feel something is justified is subjective and irrelevant. One person's mind can justify anything. Another person might say that no use of military force is ever justified. While a third person might choose to justify the actions of one side over another based on their ideological alignment or political affiliation.
Do you not see that it's just as easy for me to baselessly say you're biased towards Hamas so you argue against anything that Israel does?
I won't make that argument because it's weak and, frankly, more than a little bit petty and embarrassing. You have to be pretty shameless to go there.
I'm on the side of the innocent, which you would understand if you read the substance of what I'm saying. Anybody who is on the side of the innocent can easily determine that Hamas are shit eating cowardly bitches for fighting from hospitals, and in doing so they are only further hurting the innocent.
Anyway, you're boring me with this shit. I'm not an IDF general bombing hospitals, nor am I a Hamas terrorist taking cover behind injured children, so take your pent up frustrations on them instead.
