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.

It’s so absurd because you give zero sources in your first comment. Any stranger from the internet can claim anything and pretend its the truth. So yes, I’m immensely skeptical when it is without sources.

Like I said in another comment, I might comment make later on. Not at home right now.

I don't even understand what you mean with this sentence. What do you mean?

From what I get from all your comments, you support Israel, their Apartheid, murdering behavior. If I'm wrong, correct me.

You also didn’t give any answer to my other question and ignored the 10 stages of genocide link.

I would also like to say, my views are based on history and not propoganda. I’ve read what Israel has been doing since 1948 up until now (ongoing). But you seem to ignore all the facts about Israel’s past and all the trustable links so it can fit your narrative.

EDIT: corrected word, added bit more context.

If your views are based on history according to biased sources then your views will be biased.

The two dominate ideologies in palestine are islamism which is more popular in Gaza and is exemplified by the Islamic resistance movement (hamas) and palestinian islamic jihad; offshoots of the Egyptian Muslim brootherood, a group founded after the collapse of the Ottoman empire with the goal of reforming the islamic caliphate with Jerusalem as the capital. The other ideology is pan arab nationalist socialism, which is more popular in the west bank with groups such as PA and fatah, which were heavily influenced by syrian bathisim, which was created in 1940 literally inspired by Italian fascism and nazi german national socialism.

Both ideologies in palestine are totalitarian dictatorships.

Totalitarian dictatorships are liars. The foundation of fascist propaganda is the "nazi big lie", always accuse your enemy of doing what you do.

Ergo, what palestine accuses Israel of doing, palestine already does.

Example 1 : palestine fires unguided rockets at random into israeli civilian cities and when the rocket launchers are targeted with precision guided munitions for destruction = palestine claims israel is Indiscriminately bombing palestine

Example 2 : palestine makes it so Jews are not legally allowed to live in palestine, the punishment for selling things to a jew is death = palestine claims israel does aparthide

Example 3 : palestine attacks israel and murders random civilians at a music festival = palestine claims israel does genocidal attacks against palestine

Edit : stuff

If your views are based on history according to biased sources then your views will be biased.

It’s quite clear that everything that does not fit your narrative is ‘’biased’’. I have many links that are from different sources, different countries and non-Arab countries. You do not give any response to these trustable sources, probably because you have no valid argument to give.

EDIT: I wanted to add on this that you called all my sources “biased”. The source about the Ten Stages of Genocide is from “Holocaust Memorial Day Trust”. Just wanted to let you know that, do what you want with that particular knowledge.

You suddenly make this about religion, out of literally nowhere. It is not about religion in this debate, it is about human lives and rights. Stop changing subjects/ topics and trying to confuse readers.
