Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Snip:

The International Union of Muslim Scholars (IUMS) has issued a religious decree, or fatwa, urging Muslim countries to provide immediate military, financial, and armed support to the Palestinian resistance in response to an ongoing genocide by the Israeli regime in Gaza.

Endorsed by over a dozen prominent scholars, the decree calls for direct military intervention, economic sanctions against Israel, and intensified backing of Palestinian resistance groups.

It also demands a unified Islamic military alliance to defend Muslim nations and counter foreign aggression.

“The failure of the Arab and Islamic governments to support Gaza while it is being destroyed is considered by Islamic law to be a major crime against our oppressed brothers in Gaza,” said Ali al-Qaradaghi, Secretary General of the IUMS, during a public reading of the fatwa on Friday.

I'm not all that familiar with the unity of the Muslim world to understand how far reaching this plea will be, but it can't be good for anyone in the region, maybe even abroad... These are definitely interesting times we find ourselves in.
