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.

Congratulations to the US for breaking apart any sort of pretension of support for international law by allowing Israel to do whatever the fuck they want. Now we're going to let the crazed leadership of Iran and Israel to drag everyone around them and abroad into further military conflict. Goddamn morons don't know how to say "this is too far".
Ah yes, the turmoil between Muslim and Jewish populations which has only existed since the founding of America in 1776.
I wonder if Biden ever regrets creating such dogmatic differences when he gave birth to the cultures of the fertile crescent.
This is an awful take. Jews and Muslim populations are not separate races that have fought since existence. Israeli's are mostly German; they do not have a corresponding Muslim population.
Warden (War loving Biden) has focused more on Israel than abortion, legalizing marijuana, equality, health insurance, taxes, and everything else he promised since he has took office.
TIL 1.3% is mostly from wiki
also learned that 20% muslim arabs dont exist
Everything from the table in your image is still considered as "German Jews."
Arab Israelis are what Israelis call certain Palestinians but mostly the Bedouin that never identified as Palestinian (generally the desert south where nationality isn't the norm). It's not an accident that Israel is considered a Western nation. The people are from Europe (not that there's anything wrong with Western values; it's just they should belong in the countries developed them as their own culture).
Bedouin make for about 10% of all muslims in Israel
and most jews arent european either
in what country does jewish culture belongs?
Those in the area of places like Nazareth are simply Palestinians. Some of them seem to have a "Palestinian-Israeli" identity. As of now; they know of their Palestinian origins. They follow Palestinian traditions and are now starting to protest the war in Gaza (though it took them 6 months to get permission to protest I guess -- perhaps you can clarify).
I'll give you Haifa where so many Palestinians were killed or purged out, Arab culture may have gotten weaker. I have read that Haifa Palestinians fit best in Israeli society.
Looking around on the internet, I see that Jaffa has an actual "Palestinian" (not Palestinian-Israeli or Arab Israeli) identifying position. Which makes sense as Jaffa was a Palestinian town and Tel Aviv was built around it.
Is this self-identified or is it genetic based? I'm a little curious on how Israeli culture is affected by European Jews raising a lot of the North African
This is a loaded question. The Palestinians had to be pushed around a lot. I see posts about how Gaza actually had many Palestinian refugees. The issue isn't Israeli's are mainly Jewish; it's about the crimes done by foreign actors against Palestinians who are the natives of Palestine. Your question FEELS more like "should not we keep punishing Palestinians for getting in the way of setting up a country on their land?" Another way to put it is why are Palestinians still paying for Hitler's atrocities while Germany is doing so well?
Also, Germany and France have a lot of antisemitic laws, to answer your question directly.
edit: I guess I should call those laws anti-antisemitic laws
When classified over a single generation, sure.
I'm not sure if you're aware but there was a massive migration about 80 years ago, and not many of those people are still around. That's the 1.3%. Their offspring are the 44%
the data refers to 2019 there were many migrations most of which were not from europe
