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.
-
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.

Then we should declare war on Israel is your perspective? Because we were at war with Hitler, that's why we didn't just give him what he wanted. Because we knew we could beat them by killing them. If you truly think the US will ever declare war on Israel, you're insane and this conversation can end here. It's so outside of the realm of reality
The only way this specific conflict will end is either complete destruction of Hamas, or their complete surrender. Period.
Not how SHOULD this conflict end. The only way it will.
Did you miss this part?
Sanction. Boycott. Make demands with actual consequences. Then if none of that works, international peacekeeping forces should stop the genocide immediately.
Yeah that's why I did not say that.
Wrong. Cease fire. Prisoner exchanges. Happened many times before.
Again WHY do you think everyone should bend over backwards to do what Israel wants "for peace" but not make any concessions for Hamas? Don't you understand that peace requires both sides to actually agree?
Are you thinking that Hamas is actually going to lay down their arms? Or that if they were destroyed another terror group wouldn't take their place? Is that realistic?
Their comments here and comment history just show they want Israel to be able to eliminate all Palestinians. Idk if any logic you present will change their mind (or any others that think like that)
Probably not but I think it's good to make the case and to give people a chance.
But yeah that seems to be it. Israel gets everything "it's the only way, I'm just being realistic" and Hamas surrenders entirely and gets nothing because.... that is "realistic" apparently? This will make Palestinians stop fighting for their freedom, somehow? Bizarre logic.
Again, not going to happen man. They are America's strongest ally in the region, *AND one of our strongest allies in the entire world. We'll never do this. You're living in a fantasy land. So we should just stop here. You can keep wishing but you aren't looking at the facts and reality. Goodbye
You ignore everything else so you can pretend you're being "realistic" and everyone with morals is "living in a fantasy land." Ronald fucking Reagan suspended weapons delivery to them so let's not pretend it's so impossible.
And since you're just ignoring anything inconvenient to you, I'll just leave this question here again...
