Hey @Davriellelouna@lemmy.world Looks like you’re posting a bunch.
Please note sidebar rule 7:
“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.”
“Surely nothing could go wrong.”
Because their war crimes already killed the other half? 🤔
? I thought the US was when Trump agreed to pull out and turn it over to them?
“I would love to give you an honest answer to that question, but I’m afraid our corporate lawyers just won’t allow it.”
LOL. From a book called “Idiot Letters”. Guy got a card in the mail from Pizza Hut reading “It’s come to our attention that it’s been some time since you enjoyed a Pizza Hut pizza, and that concerns us, because you’re the kind of customer we’d like to see more often.”
To which he responded: “What kind of customer WOULDN’T you like to see more often?”
Response above.

As bad as 10/7 was, the unfounded accusations of systemic rape and beheadings have been de-bunked. Don’t go down the road of repeating propaganda or your comments will be removed.
They were siezed over 10x the distance from Israeli waters where Israel had no jurisdiction.
"The Freedom Flotilla Coalition, which organized the latest ship, says the Madleen was intercepted in international waters some 200 kilometers (124 miles) off the coast of Gaza, a claim that could not be independently verified. Israeli authorities have not disclosed the location where the ship was halted.
Robbie Sabel, an international law expert and former legal adviser to the Israeli Foreign Ministry, said the U.N. Convention on the Law of the Sea stipulates that a state only has jurisdiction up to 12 nautical miles (19 kilometers) from its shores."
They were removed at gunpoint from international waters, taken to a country they had no intention of entering, and then were told they had no right to be there and ejected.

That’s pretty much the textbook definition of abduction. If someone holds you at gunpoint, takes you to a second location, even if they release you would you not call that “abduction”?
Obligatory “Never let them take you to a second location.”
!world@lemmy.world does require articles be recent news, within the last 30 days, so I’m hard pressed to see how a history lesson going back decades qualifies.
But since the date on the article IS “29 Jun 2025”, and that is within our requirement, I’ll allow it for now, another mod may not, but eh, it is what it is.
There also seems (to me) to be a lot missing here. Like that time they tried to assasinate the US Ambassador to Lebanon.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Gunther_Dean
“Picked up by Lebanese security, the anti-tank canisters had made-in-America markings. After unanswered telegrams to the State Department and all but silent responses to his telephone inquiries, Dean eventually learned that the anti-tank weapons were sold and shipped to Israel in 1974. Dean apparently mused to himself on the irony of an American ambassador being subjected to an Israeli assassination attempt with American weapons supplied to Israel for defense.”
I would imagine the dust component is incredibly dangerous too! It’s been a while now, but when I was a kid, grain silo explosions were pretty regular:

Not really “News”, but it’s sufficiently “World” so I’ll allow it.
I’m not even sure where I’d re-direct you if I did remove it. !entertainment@beehaw.org ? !entertainment@lemmy.world ? !music@lemmy.world ?
As usual, lots of rumor and speculation. Some folks were saying it was a plane crash (which was debunked). Some are saying arson, but we just don’t know yet.
But come on, it’s a fireworks warehouse… Probably wouldn’t take much…
As they dig their claws into your leg to better launch themselves off the bed…
2·2 days agoFor point 1, this sounds like a class action waiting to happen.
You buy a Nintendo console, Nintendo says you broke the rules and bans that console, now non-Nintendo games won’t work on it because it’s banned from reaching online services.
Indirect stuff I generally let slide, other mods may or may not. Plausible deniability and all that.
But yes, the videos some other communities allow showing drone attacks on Russian soldiers, cheering when people get killed? We’d remove those.
Of course a top level post would be removed because we don’t allow video posts, but as a comment, I’d remove those too.
2·2 days agoWow! I had no idea that was even possible for a 3 year old! Glad she’s OK!
Yeah, the Afghani government, or I should say “government” folded up so fast it’s hard to remember the timeline. It may be we made the promise to the non-Taliban government which had the half-life of francium. (Yes, I looked that up.)
