Holy shit I was not expecting .world to support a group of religious fundamentalists that regularly abducts, massacres, tortures, and/or beheads civilians, including children.
When America, Palestine, Saudi Arabia, and Iran, really everyone *except *Israel all label a group a terrorist organization, they're probably not great.
Dont tell .ml users about this.
They'd just remove the post and ban you.
You know the guy who posted this news article is a .ml user, right?
But you haven't posted it to any .ml communities. Any reason for that?
I literally got it from a .ml community.
Why do you think .ml mods would ban people for posting a news article detailing US-backed terrorists pledging to go after another one of the US's adversaries next?
You seem to be confused. We’re very aware of the CIA-backed terrorists. https://lemmy.ml/post/22871140/15210850

Isnt lemmy banned in china?
No, it is not
https://www.chinafirewalltest.com/?siteurl=Lemmy.ml
Reality suggests otherwise.
Lemmy.ml is banned, lemmy.world is not
Posting from Beijing
Tankies can come out and bitch now
I would think the only way they could fight China effectively is by being the extremists that these militants aligned with. Which unfortunately means the CCP is going to crack down harder on anyone remotely affiliated :/
Angry Chihuahua vibes.
They might want to start with Israel, but props to them.
Israel is not the one committing genocide against the Uyghurs. China is. So they might want to start with the people committing genocide against them.
I swear, people think there's only one genocide going on or that it's the only one that matters or something...
Yeah, there's at least 6 active genocides happening right now but the hypocrisy of Jews doing one really puts it at the forefront.
China was the victim of a genocidal Japanese regime. So I would say that's just as hypocritical. There were just too many Chinese to decimate as thoroughly.
yeah a whole generation didn't grow up watching that one on Discovery channel though
I think you'll find Chinese schools do not mince words about what happened after the Japanese invaded Manchuria.
I'm sorry, you're not going to win this "Israelis are the bigger hypocrites" thing. They're both hypocrites who are committing genocide after being victims of a genocide in living memory.
you thought there was a win condition? hold up
people think there's only one genocide going on
Israel is getting all the media coverage. That's it, that's the entire reason.
The average person doesn't know South Sudan is a bad place to be a Nuer because no one told them.
You tried to argue that Israelis are the bigger hypocrites because somehow Israelis know more about the genocide that Jews in Europe went through than Chinese people do about what the Chinese went through in China at the exact same time when that isn't the case. The Israelis and the Chinese are both fully aware that their people suffered a genocide in the 1930s and 1940s.
I'm not sure what this has to do with the average person unless you mean the average Chinese person or the average Israeli, in which case, my point stands. They are equally hypocritical and equally know why.
Yes it did, literally every Chinese person has to learn it in history class.
They were supported by Israel due to Assad's support for Palestine.
Hence why HTS has ordered Palestinian organizations that Assad was harboring to disarm.
I don't expect much from liberals, but I am still shocked how quickly yall came around to supporting the psychotically evil faction Israel and Turkey support for their use against Palestine's ally, Assad, and Turkey's enemy, the Kurds.
Even in the 2010s, supporting ISIS and their allies even though they opposed Assad was beyond the pale.
huge W for them. Free your brothers and sisters.
