I'm not against Jews, I'm against Israel. It appears that the lesson they learned from the Nazis is how to commit atrocities.
World News
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.

It's almost as if the lesson should be that Jews aren't unique and are just like any other people. And if you put any group of people into an explicit ethnostate, that group of people is going to turn into Nazis.
You cannot expect atrocities to lead to anything good. We see it in gaza right now, the ongoing genocide will breed more terrorists and more conflicts.
And Republicans keep trying to convince us the Israeli government is the good guys. >.>
Please don't act like it's just republicans.
crazy that everyone came after Rashida Talib for speaking the truth that most US politicians are more loyal to israel than their constituents.
the thing is we'll never move the republican party off their pro-israel spot except through weaponizing anti-semitism, which will do no one any good. in our two party political system our best bet is to cordon republicans away from power and to shift democrats left through quite frankly desperate maneuvers. additiunally, we must develop parallel structures of power to protect ourselves. these parrallel structures of power is what the establishment fears most, which is why they're so quick to label us terrorists
Democrats are not the answer. If you all don’t figure out soon that democrats are poison and we have got to create a new group. This is holding us back. Will it take a devastating loss for you to get it?
This started under Biden, and centrist democrats gleefully shouted down progressives sounding the alarm like the good little fascism apologists that US centrists are. It is now much worse under the Trump regime, but you are 1000% right.
Please don’t act like it’s just USAmericans.
And the Democrat leader Schumer says his job is to keep the left pro-Israel, there is no redeemable politician in power here. If we had real justice they would all be hanged for supporting genocide.
That's because Schumer is a Nazi collaborator.
The Democrats lost the election because they refused to condemn Israel. For once, this is actually a "both sides" problem.
for a country that loves to talk about their right to exist, they sure as fuck try their best to disprove they have that right at all. nazi germany didn't have a right to exist.
Condoning or condemning atrocities has rarely been about the race, nationality, religion, etc. of who was harming or being harmed. Whoever is in power at the time decides what is condoned or condemned.
20th century Jews were at the mercy of a seemingly-unstoppable German force. Now that Israel are largely in charge of the immediate region, they set the tone, forgetting what had been done to their ancestors.
Americans weep and gnash teeth over foreign atrocities while standing on the blood of Indigenous people their powerful ancestors were perfectly fine murdering just to gain land.
African tribes slaughtered each other long before becoming victims of Euro/American slavery.
I’m not justifying any of it. Just saying it’s the ebb and flow of who is in power at the time that determines who gets to decide what’s condoned or condemned, not the race, etc. of the aggressor or victim. Over centuries and millennia, many/most nations and peoples will take turns giving and receiving atrocities. All you need is an evil leader and just enough supporters to make it seem “ok enough”.
Theres an active ongoing genocide happening and you are talking about ebb and flow? What the actual fuck. Fuck off. Use your words and voice to speak out against it not defend it you privileged fucking asshole.
Jesus fucking christ this is some evil shit.
Behold, the apex of humanity. God help us.
They opened fire on French forces too in Lebanon.
It’s getting fucking spicy and real weird that European Jewish refugees are building their own Auschwitz next door.
I'll never get enough of saying it: this is happening with the help and support of your government
around 20 multiple gunshots in each one of them [...] one of them had their legs bound, another was decapitated
Oh that's not good
The Israeli military said in an initial statement that trucks were struck because they were being used by Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad.
Ah thank goodness for a clear explanation
Just when one thinks IDF has reached rock bottom depravity, some war criminal finds a way to go deeper.
I hope the pepetrators (and if a command was given, their commanders, and if directions were given, the political leaders) are held responsible.
It will take a lot of time and maneuvering. Politically, Israel must lose status and become considerably weaker before justice can occur. Meanwhile, the ICC must gain status and become considerably more influential. Then...
