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.

Hamas or not, Israel has gone too far.
Hamas likely wouldn't even exist right now if not for the failure of Israeli leadership. Specifically Netanyahu's repeated moves to prop up Hamas in order to sabotage a two state solution. The issue of Hamas is almost entirely Israel's own fault.
If Austria required Slovak to register the birth of their children with them so they may later be eligible to vote, then you might be right.
Bro 90% (literally) of the Gazan population weren't even alive during the last election. The didn't vote for shit most of the population is like 23 or younger and have lived with Hamas bullying and Israeli super extra bullying for literally their entire life. Most haven't even had a like full feast in their life ever and at the current pace likely won't ever if they even survive.
Nobody is in a warzone asking poll questions don't be obtuse, Numbers from before Israel started intense genocidal actions are irrelevant dude.
Ed: also your source notes opinions but doesn't provide their source for the numbers.
Ed fdd's original mission statement.
Unbiased indeed.
Notice opinion prominently displayed in that headline?
It's literally an opinion poll and says as much in the text of the link you provided.....
Popularity =/= Democratically elected.
And of course Hamas is seen as popular. Anyone would be popular when the opposition (Israel) is indiscriminately bombing civilian targets en masses. Or even massacring them just for running up to collect food aid. Food that Palestinians in Gaza are utterly desperate for due to famine like conditions in the region caused by Israel.
Aid that Israel has been purposely and continuously shutting off from the civilian population.
The fact that you don't even care about the Palestinian apartheid, and now genocide, speaks volumes enough about you honestly. Have fun defending genocide.
Hey look, you're being a purposely-obtuse ass again. I'd say you're just this stupid, but since you're all over these comments you clearly have an agenda to push. Luckily no one here is buying your bullshit lmao
The current one, wtf you even talking about.
Polls that illustrate their own bias. You've yet to offer a source that isn't self admitted opinion.
You should read your links. This one is the same flaws source as the first, notice the founders name.
Ed: and they tell you the margin of error is huge because of war (go figure) and specifically state it was taken in non combat zones, ie zones held by Israel... This isn't hard maybe, your point is dumb move on.
All of them? Dunno about that, but the ones that specifically state they are inaccurate and biased you should probably take their word for it.
Ed: also yes I do in fact I mentioned it. Ie. The oil was at isreali safe zones, how likely do you think expressing "fuck Israel" sentiment is going to be when everyone with a gun around you is Israeli.
There hasn't been an election in Gaza since 2006 and your purposely-obtuse ass knows it.
If Israel wasn't committed to upholding an apartheid state, and now genocide, maybe groups like Hamas wouldn't exist. Which again, is a group that Israel itself propped up and allowed to take power in Gaza.
Gaza hasn't had an election since 2006 and the average age of a Gaza resident is under 18.
Feel free to work out the math on that. But imagine if George Bush Jr was nominally still president while the US existed under Canadian military occupation for the last 18 years.
Gotta wonder how many of those pollsters got cut down by Israeli sniper fire or obliterated by 2000 ton US-made bombs to go tent-to-tent and secure those those numbers.
Fine fair whatever, it doesn't need to be at the cost of tens of thousands of innocents. That's literally the same logic Hitler used to go all super eugenics murder monster on the world population.
Lebensraum. Germans just needed a little living space, is all. So those vicious feral tribes in Eastern Europe had to go.
