Ok, friend. You have every right to your opinion. I just happen to disagree. Have a good day.

P.S. Freedom fighters don’t rape women to death.

. Freedom fighters don’t rape women to death.

And exclusively targeting civilians is against international laws but here we are. Also go read a history book.

Yeah ,being from a colonized country and learning about all the horrible things they did to your people make it less of an opinion and more like a conviction that colonization, genocide and apartheid are bad things. It’s also supposedly tied to logic and having a sense of humanity but apparently being against colonization , genocide and apartheid are debatable if it’s Isreal doing it or you are an isreali of course.

It is understandable that you feel a sense of affiliation with the Palestinian cause, given your background. But the strength of your feeling doesn’t change the facts. Israel has acted like an apartheid state towards the Palestinians and Hamas are terrorists who use rape as a weapon of war. Why argue about which side is worse? They’re just different shades of awful.

The real question is, what’s next? Israel isn’t leaving. Palestinians aren’t leaving. They apparently can’t live together. Ergo, the solution is obvious: they need a two-state solution. They have been close to deals before. Let’s get there.

I will never call a country freedom fighters terrorists. Freedom isn’t free, especially when the other side completely discard all international law protecting civilians, schools, hospitals and even journalists. my country freedom fighters were were called all sorts of similar names and today we are free thanks to them.

they need a two-state solution. They have been close to deals before. Let’s get there.

Tell that to Israel. Palestinians have agreed long ago to a country according to the palistinian 1967 borders map. Circling back to the two states solution is meaningless and it’s because Isreal is the one not wanting it since all the world countries by their utter silence are giving them a free pass at commiting genocide.

World News

!world@lemmy.world

Create post

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.
