A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
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 (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 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.

They have conquered Al Shifa two months ago. There was so much talk about this supposed command center being run in tunnels under the hospital. Two months they've been there and we've seen exactly zero proof for their claims. Why would we believe Israel now then?
EDIT: I see I’m getting downvoted. Might I ask why? What’s wrong with what I’ve said above?
What’s wrong with what I’ve said above?
Absolutely nothing, but there's been an influx of people who automatically take the side of the Israeli government no matter what on Lemmy lately. That's probably where your downvotes come from.
Washington Post confirmed that israel lied about the tunnels under Shifa a month ago

Big shocker, Israel lies.
The whole place will be a graveyard soon if things continue.
That’s the goal. Then they can bring in fresh settlers.
I'm guessing nobody checks anything at this point. They hear a rumour, they bomb it. And, of course, there's going to be a small but significant number of people on the Israeli side fabricating rumours whole-cloth.
It wasn't bombed. They drove a tank through the cemetary, the footage of the aftermath shows what they did. It shows shrouded corpses and mangled body parts, piles of over turned dirt and tank treads.
There was no tunnel, the iof just wanted to desercrate Palestinian graves.
Is there a single instance of israel committing a war crime for a supposed tunnel network which has actually turned out to be true?
I understand them lying but at least be right about it a single time...
