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.
-
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.

Hamas is, at the end of the day, an organization dedicated to making martyrs of their people first and providing for them second.
This isn't speculation or opinion - this is their official stance
I love how easy it is for you to be onkwith this because you've been told they do in fact have a government. But they don't. Not really. A 45 square km patch, 2M total pop, with 50% being literal kids.
But yes they're just as organized ,capable and sustained as other large western nations. They must be bombed, surely!
They do literally have a government. Did you really think they don't? They even had elections until Hamas stopped those.
I mean, yes, Gaza was part of a sort of but not really a state (more of a Bantustan really) at the time. Now it's an actual, honest to God ghetto.
Yeah man we had elections at my high school too, they really amounted to a lot.
I'm glad Hamas wasn't in your high school, canceling elections.
If you think Gaza doesn't have a government then you are just factually incorrect and idk what else to tell you.
It's like if you came on here and acted confidently aloof about saying that Mars is blue. You're just wrong on a very basic level.
Sounds like the kind of place that needs another country to come in before they get radicalized and do something stupid.
