And then Bibi said he disrespected the memory of 6 million Jews.

No, Bibi. You did that. You’ve been doing it for years. May God judge you. After you die in a cell.

The hypocrisy of supporting Israel is so big that any dictator can get an easy dunk on America and garner massive support. How long is America going to stay in denial on this?

Are you trying to imply that Lula is a dictator?

Oops I thought that Brazil had a coup and was ran by a dictator. But I just googled and Lula is actually a left winger, Bolsanaro was the crazy right winger that tried to do a coup.

Thanks for correcting me

This has become a sort of an edgelord thing to say in the geopolitical arena. It’s obvious that if Israel and IDF was committing genocide with the same passion and planning as Hitler was doing with the jews, this situation would be completely different.

Additionally, Hamas doesn’t declare how many of the killed people have been its fighters. They make it look like all of them are civilians. Are there even estimates about this?

Well, we could probably take the 15000 or so children off the number, I would guess.

Perhaps you cannot. Amnesty International thinks Hamas uses children as soldiers: https://www.amnesty.org/en/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/mde150352004en.pdf

Given their religion (dying in holy war is considered a net positive for the individual) and demographics (half of the people are underage), it makes sense if they did.

I don’t think you can use a PDF from 2004 as evidence of anything Hamas is doing currently. They weren’t even voted in to power until 2007.

What a leap of faith #justaskingquestions guesture towards a conclusion during a time where there is really no way to know.

Curb your bias.

Given their religion

Definitely not an argument against a specific point, but a generalization against an entire population. Pretty much ad hominem on a large scale.

What a bigot with no actual argument. Begone now and thank you 😘

Bye

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.

  • 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.
