At risk? They are actively experiencing a genocide

I think they mean “at risk of completing full genocide”, sadly enough.

“it’s not technically a genocide, if it’s still in progress”

The world really hasn’t paid attention to this particular conflict, until now.

The genocide deniers: acting like an angry drill instructor saying “zero, zero, zero, no partial credit for incomplete genocides” …

UN protocols demands being careful when using certain terms when referring to a given event before a proper resolution or investigation has been carried out. If you follow the news, you will notice that they warn about obviously blatant war crimes as “might be a war crime”. What’s noticeable isn’t that they’re following their own protocols, but that they’re bringing the war crimes to everyone’s attention.

The Israeli mission to the U.N. in Geneva called the comments “deplorable and deeply concerning” and blamed Hamas for civilian deaths.

(Insert “why would they do this” meme here.)

Hamas is evil, yes, but that doesn’t prevent the Israeli government from also being evil.

Supporting terrorism by…condemning Hamas and Israel?

Are you drunk? Where did I support anything except not killing civilians?

A common thing that seems to be going around lately is people claiming that any condemnation of Israel is support for Hamas

Edit: Funnily enough though I see way less of the opposite. It’s almost as if those people are poisoning the well for discussion on the matter.

I also see people saying that condemning Israel’s actions is antisemitism but I’ve been seeing less and less of that lately

It’s clear and all reasonable people agree, Israel must cease their ethnic cleansing.

Palestinian is not an ethnicity, it’s just where you live, like Californian, or New-Yorker.

The ethnicity would be Arabs.

I think Reuters very much know it’s genocide. They put the conciliatory language in there to try to mollify people from attacking them. The important thing is a mainstream, reputable, mostly objective news source is socializing the fact that this is a genocide. That’s progress.

I guess hornet set the bar to hight so the Israeli gov will only stop when the finally kill more then 6 000 000 innocent civilians.

No for real what haunts me is that they are the descendents of those who survived such massacres over the history only to do it themselves when they finally gained power. (They is Israel’gov)

Edit: Hitler not hornet, wtf sorry guys

All humans are like that. Humans are inherently evil. The only way they do good is if they are forced to.

I can say with 110% certainty that I don’t need to be forced to not commit genocide. Hell, I don’t even need to be forced to commit individual murders. If murder was made legal tomorrow, I’m pretty sure that I wouldn’t go on a killing spree because I’m no longer forced to not murder.

Talk about telling on yourself, if this is what you genuinely think is true for everyone

I wonder if that’s the lack of hope talking or the profound knowledge of yourself that motivates you to say that that

“Risk” of genocide? Risk?

They need to update their fucking AI model.

The burning house is at risk of catching fire. The dead man is at risk of heart failure. This headline is at risk of being full of shit.

    • 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.
