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 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.

October 7th was absolutely fucked up for attacking civilians, although around 1/3 of the casualties were military or police. So is diverting humanitarian aid to a military. Seems wild to blame him for the invasion and genocide though. Also he hasn't been the main obstacle to peace talks. Hamas agreed to the peace deal America negotiated on July 2nd. This is the third time in a few months that Israel has murdered the person they're in direct peace negotiations with. The genocide continues because Israel wants it to.
Again not saying he was a nice guy or anything, but saying he cared the least about the Palestinian people because he ordered the deaths of Israeli collaborators just sees inaccurate.
If you listen to any of his speech he was clear about dying fighting for the freedom of his people. Mainly the prisoners as he saw what it is like first hand.
He literally organize a peaceful protest to open gaza borders where “Israel” start shooting people knees and legs.

October 7 is clearly to get hostages to negotiate release of “prisoner” many of which has not even been charge, and by ”Israel” own testimony has been sexually assaulted and torture.
Ignoring any of these details is just attempt to justify the genocide.
