Hey I know, wait for him and his family to be enjoying an afternoon in their yard and drone strike the whole fucking block.
World News
A community for discussing events around the World
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.

U.S. Air Force drone operators salivating at the thought.
Oh look the War on Terror is back.
The ninja turtles are on the job!
The US and Israel are losing the propaganda war, they need a name for it's news outlets to focus on and vilify. They know from experience that promoting hatred for one figurehead will stoke hatred for all Palestinians
I too remember when the death of al-Zarqawi ended al-Qaeda in Iraq. I kind of doubt the motivating factor for a young Palestinian to join Hamas is the raw charisma of a far away leader rather than say his family being blown up by a 2000 lb. bomb.
Yeah, if I was in Gaza those last 6 months I'd probably be looking to join any organisation that would give me a chance to kill some IDF soldiers of I was going to die anyway.
As long as there's occupation and blockage there will be hundred of new Sinwar
I would bet a years salary that they’ll keep going even if they find and kill him. Hell, I bet they keep going if he offers himself to the Israelis as a sacrificial lamb to try to stop them from murdering civilians.
Edit: woah. As of this writing, the account that replied and downvoted this is about 9 minutes old. I have successfully inspired someone to join lemmy (yay 😄), but it seems they’re not the caliber of person whose going to improve the discourse here (aww 😞).
I'm betting on that even if the Hamas chief offers himself, the states and Israel will try to swing it as a look-a-like and will conveniently find the "real" one shortly after occupying all of Palestine, so they can keep trying to bring attention back to a single person
Israel, sure. But I genuinely do not think Biden would go for that.
Yep. There has been nothing to indicate Israel gives a single shit about this guy.
Biden: "What if we hunted down Yayah Sinwat?"
Little Ben: "Who?"
Biden: "The Hamas chief."
Little Ben: "Ooh, those guys. Yeah, yeah, yeah, sure."
Like a fiddle. Again. Even after Biden admitted he got played at the start already. He's not great at seeing things that are so obvious to the rest of the world.
It’s calling Netanyahu’s bluff. In the meantime, the IDF won’t be shelling the areas with US military presence.
U.S. military ground forces acting as human shields to protect Muslim civilians of another country does not exist as a Bingo square.
Reminder that there's zero chance that Netanyahu will stop after Sinwar is dead and this is just Biden being his lap dog and providing him with American military intelligence for free.
Are you saying that Biden should charge him for the information?
Just don’t provide the info. There’s no legitimate reason for Israel to be committing genocide against Palestinians and the US shouldn’t be complicit with it, let alone actively supporting it.
No Biden should definitely run a massive spy operation for israel for free and provide them with all the intel Netanyahu wants. The military runs on sunshine and rainbows after all.
I'm thinking Israel probably provides US Intel and US provides them weapons.
Israel has software for mass surveillance (wire tapping, data scraping etc) but in terms of physical surveillance abilities they are lacking (aside from the Big Brother camera system and auto gun turrets they installed in the West Bank).
The UK also ran 200+ spy missions for israel above Gaza, more than one per day.
Interesting
Sorry, I’m not really good at picking up tone through text.
Is that sarcasm?
Are you literally Satan's maggoty cum fart?
What did you call me?
You are Satan's Maggoty Cum Fart, are you not?
Oh yeah, sorry I misread your previous comment.
🤣 I love watching a master at work! 👏👏👏
Joke's on me, they were only pretending to be stupid.
