I don't disagree, but at the moment the biggest contributors to global warming are socialist China and socialist/capitalist India.

There's a reason there wasn't one in the first place.

The reason is that Israel blockades the whole Gaza Strip.

Having an opinion someone doesn't agree with doesn't make it invalid. I'm not an instance admin, so I have no say in who gets defederated, but in this community I welcome all opinions, no matter how popular or unpopular they might be.

People from democratic countries might call anything that doesn't agree with their world view a propaganda, yet on the flip side, countries from non-democratic countries might call anything that doesn't agree with their world view a propaganda. If we can't discuss our differences, then we are living in a bubble. If someone is never challenged, how can they refine their own position?

Rhetorical question to think about. Americans are likely to elect self-proclaimed authoritarian in the next election, should everyone defederate from instances that allow their opinions too?

In any case, this is not a place for this discussion. I would suggest making a post in !home@lemmy.zip.

I'll give you that argument as to wire fraud charges, since the whole charge is so broad that it can apply to anything, but the conspiracy to commit money laundering charge is undisputed. Dudes even did searches about that...

Still waiting for that video to be independently verified. So far, no major corporate news network ran that video since they are unable to verify it.

and btw, the UN minisrty of health is getting their numbers from Hamas, so I guess if you trust Hamas, it is what it is

I do trust Hamas for the number of dead. They literally have a proven track record of keeping an accurate count that was independently verified after past Israeli crimes. After the Hamas attack, Israel let people in to independently verify the number of killed, yet they prevent the same for when they kill. Why?

And it's ironic that a random video gets more coverage than children getting murdered on mass. All the Israel supporters are clinging to this video like it's some vindication and justification for the genocide being committed. It's not. If you care more about being right than children being brutally murdered, you are the problem in this world.

UN is unable to independently verify, since IDF keeps killing their staff. So they had to change how they verify deaths, which reclassified the people killed, not the total number of people killed. It's a moot point anyway, since Palestinian figures are known to be highly credible. They have plenty of reasons to be diligent about it, and zero reasons to invent stuff.

Historically, the UN and other agencies have found that overall figures produced by the Gaza ministry of health have been largely reliable. Among those agencies is the World Health Organization, which says the ministry has “good capacity in data collection” and its previous reporting has been credible and “well developed”.

The whole concept of pageants is built on an idea of bullying and abuse.

Yes, Israel made that accusation 3 months ago and then failed to provide any single shred of evidence of that to this day. Accusation is useless without proof. I can say "you are x and x and x" but without any proof, that doesn't make it true...

The fastest way to stop this is to release the hostages.

Clearly you are misinformed. Hamas agreed to release the hostages as part of the last ceasefire agreement they signed and Israel rejected.

And the war criminal Netanyahu doesn't give a shit about hostages. Gaza: Israeli PM Netanyahu says Rafah attack will happen regardless of deal

Relatives of the doctors were told by the State Department that rescue efforts were underway, including through coordination with the United Nations and the Israel Defense Forces. Yet on Monday, the Israeli military fired on a United Nations vehicle that was traveling to the European Hospital in Khan Younis, near Rafah, killing a U.N. employee and injuring another.

Yeah, I wouldn't trust IDF to rescue anyone. IDF is only capable of mass murder. They are literally bombing their own civilian hostages because it's acceptable loss. They must have gotten US playbook, not only weapons with all that military aid.
