I used to support the 1967 map of Palestine/Israel I now due to Israeli aggression and hate crimes now support the 1940 map of Palestine.
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.

From the river to the sea
"High-caliber" "advanced sniper rifles"? If they're talking about the short-barreled ARs in the picture, they're neither.
I don't get why news outlets make shit up like this. The truth is worse: those rifles are for close-quarters boots on the ground. They're what you want when you invade and fight door to door in a city. That's exactly what they're going to use them for: systematically killing anyone they find in the target area.
Yossi Dagan, has purchased more than 500 rifles to arm emergency security teams, and is now working to further upgrade their equipment in preparation for a future war with Palestinians, Masar News reported on 5 November. Dagan purchased dozens of advanced sniper rifles after raising almost one million shekels ($270,000) from supporters...
They might be referring to two different purchases. One is in the hundreds, the other in dozens.
Israeli ~~settlers~~ war criminals acquire hundreds of high-caliber rifles to 'prepare for ~~war~~ ethnic cleansing' in West Bank
Early last month, Minister of National Security Itamar Ben Gvir announced that over 120,000 firearms have been distributed among Jewish settlers in the West Bank since the outbreak of the Gaza war last year.
"Over 120,000 weapons were distributed to eligible citizens, while tens of thousands more received conditional approvals," he said on his X account.
Literally creating a militia to conquer and settle additional lands.
"National Security" because the inability to expand is a danger, right?
Israel is a big cancer that just wants to expand while killing those around them.
But has reminded Israel to uphold international law and demanded Israel look into these things. Also Israel has a right to defend itself from Palestinians existing in their own houses on land coveted by Israel.
Israel also has a right to expand it's borders. This is all perfectly within Israel's rights because they need to conquer their neighbors.
Are you surprised?
Ben Gvir is literally a convicted terrorist. Do you have any idea how extreme you have to be for Israel to convict you of being a Zionist terrorist?
He was so rightwing, the IDF excused him from compulsory military service
The fact that he's now in a position of authority is a huge red flag
Itamar Ben-Gvir was born in Mevaseret Zion. His father was born in Iraqi Kurdistan and worked at a gasoline company and dabbled in writing.[10] His mother was a Kurdish Jewish immigrant who was active in the Irgun as a teenager and was a homemaker. His family was secular, but as a teenager, he adopted religious and radical right-wing views during the First Intifada. He first joined a right-wing youth movement affiliated with Moledet, a party which advocated the expulsion of Arabs out of Israel, and then joined the youth movement of the even more radical Kach and Kahane Chai party, which was designated as a terrorist organization and outlawed by the Israeli government.[12][13] He became youth coordinator of Kach, and claimed that he was detained at the age of 14. When he came of age for conscription into the Israel Defense Forces at 18, he was exempted from service by the IDF due to his extreme-right political background.[14][10]
Ben-Gvir continued to be associated with the Kahanist movement;[15] Otzma Yehudit is considered Kach's ideological successor.[16] However, when forming the Otzma Yehudit party, he claimed that it would not be a Kach, Kahane Chai or splinter group.[17] He carried out a series of far-right activities that have resulted in dozens of indictments. In a November 2015 interview, he claimed to have been indicted 53 times.[18] In most cases, the charges were thrown out of court.[10] In 2007, however, he was convicted for incitement to racism and supporting a terrorist organization.[19][20] Ben-Gvir has been convicted of at least eight charges.[9]
In the 1990s, he was active in protests against the Oslo Accords. In 1995, Ben-Gvir came to public attention for the first time, when he appeared on television brandishing a Cadillac hood ornament that had been stolen from Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin's car, and declared: "We got to his car, and we'll get to him too." Several weeks later, Rabin was assassinated by right-wing extremist Yigal Amir.[10][21]
Yep, he's the only reason why Netanyahu is still in charge and he's made it abundantly clear that he will walk away from that support if there is any kind of ceasefire. He's a major reason why the genocide is still ongoing, because he wants to wipe out all the Palestinians. The man is pure evil.
Does this count as actual fascism yet?
🌍🧑🚀🔫👩🚀
Zionism has been fascist since its inception.
