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.

False. Children are non combatants.
Not how theyve been treated though.
By whom?
Touché
why are "war crime" and "executed" in quotes here? I guess I just don't understand journalism
If they do not use quote marks MBFC gets big mad for quoting Gazans and not mainstream news outlets which are not allowed into Gaza.
It can be deflective, or a foreign news style of having quotes around exact language. I noticed it with the BBC World News.
It's still deflective. Saying someone else called these events a war crime is distancing their news agency from calling it that even as they spell out details of an event that's a war crime
You just don't know how quotes work. If they wanted to ve deflective, they would not quote at all.They are at freedpm with the title. They choose executed and they display it is more than just their own opinion.
'Israel' has no problem doing war crimes or any kind of crimes, really.
Why the quotation marks? It is a war crime.
Because it's actually a quotation.
I know this is the internet, but quotation marks weren't always just meant to denote insincerity...
Nobody ever likes this answer, but it’s the truth.
Really makes you think.
Quotation marks denote a quotation.
But what do they connotate?
Quotation marks denote a "quotation"
Often news sources make sure anything that could make their news source look bad, like controversial topics, are someone else's exact words that they quote so you can't be mad at them for calling it a “war crime”...
Gaza throws a rock at Israel. Israel kills millions in fair retribution!
I’m curious how this will play out in the future. Will Israel ever be sentenced for these atrocities, and will these atrocities create a huge wave of terrorists/freedom-fighters that’ll kill thousands of Israelis?
History tells us probably not. Did the US pay anything for the extermination of native americans? Or for the generations of people who lived in slavery? Did Turkey pay for the Armenian genocide? Did Russia pay for the millions of people killed in gulags and the Holodomor?
Did the US pay anything for the extermination of native americans? Or for the generations of people who lived in slavery
Yes and yes, just an fyi. Though, literal, monetary payment. And to not many of them.
With the help of your government
This is why i hate people
Yes, but in this case you can point to a responsible party, Israel, so that's a very interesting way of stating your point, to say the least.
We've been doing stuff like this for centuries. It just seems like fundamentally, humans can't get along, or share resources.
That is correct. But in this case, we can absolutely blame a specific part of humanity for this.
Bro just let them be upset. These people suck, the people enabling them suck, the general fact that it’s a dumbass religious excuse sucks, and the fact that this is completely “normal” for our species extra sucks. Not 100 years ago the very recent ancestors of Israeli Jews were super prosecuted and victims of a holocaust and now it’s 2025 and…they’ve learned absolutely nothing from that experience and are trying to wipe out an entire ethnic group.
It’s like, if you can’t expect genocide victims to understand that genocide is beyond reproach then where does that leave the rest of this place?
We do not forgive, we will not forget. It may take a while but Israeli war criminals WILL pay for their crimes.
