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 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (perjorative, perjorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (perjorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect!

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.

Some Zionist start putting up tents at the UN, like "aw shit, here we go again"
It’s far more complex than that, but go ahead and shout it down all the same
You can expand.
Do explain
Not at all suspicious that this comes out shortly after Israel is ordered to 'stop all genocidal activity'
Very disappointing as we haven't stopped supporting Israel despite all the war crimes being committed, yet conveniently jump on the bandwagon the same day as Canada to stop doing this.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Australia will temporarily pause its funding of the UN agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) while an investigation is under way into several employees accused of taking part in Hamas’s 7 October attacks in Israel, the foreign minister has announced.
Penny Wong on Saturday said Australia will join its likeminded partners in the US and Canada in pausing the funding.
Israeli officials, including the prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, have accused the agency of complicity with Hamas and fuelling anti-Israeli sentiments.
The Israeli government spokesperson Eylon Levy accused UNRWA of announcing the news while the world’s attention was focused on the international court of justice ordering Israel to prevent acts of genocide against Palestinians and do more to help civilians in Gaza.
“Any other day, this would have been a major headline: Israel submits evidence of UN employees’ complicity with Hamas,” Levy wrote on X.
More than 26,000 people have been killed in Gaza – two-third of them women and children – since Israel’s military response to Hamas’s 7 October attack commenced, Palestinian authorities report.
