        Maybe idk. Don’t want to defend Israel, just the notion that everyone there is on board with what’s happening.

                Well on Iran you’re probably not wrong, I don’t think many Israelis feel sympathetic towards a regime that has vowed to destroy them by 2040.

                  They voted for him and his party 6 time.

                  I don’t think many Israelis feel sympathetic towards a regime that has vowed to destroy them by 2040.

                  You just repeating Israel propaganda which was also used to justify the genocide in Gaza. Aren’t Zionist always saying Hamas want to kill every single jews so we have to keep occupying palestine?

                    Iran’s rulers (you could also chose the word oppressors) have pledged to destroy Israel for more than four decades now. That is simply a fact.

                    See, for example: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/11/01/world/middleeast/iran-israel-hamas.html

                    Also the role their allies Hamas play in it. You’re doing the classic knee-jerk reaction of “Israel is bad, therefore Hamas and Iran must be good” which is, of course, really really stupid. I agree that Israel is bad, by the way, but your argument is bs nonetheless and historically uninformed.

      Half are in favor of killing all the Gazan Palestinians and something like 80-90% are down with fully ethnically cleansing Gaza (source haaretz). I could also drag out the poll from about a year ago where the vast majority of Israelis agreed that the force used in Gaza was “just right” or “not enough”.

          I specified the publication but here’s a link (pay walled) https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2025-05-28/ty-article-magazine/.premium/yes-to-transfer-82-of-jewish-israelis-back-expelling-gazans/00000197-12a4-df22-a9d7-9ef6af930000

      Also worth noting, they’re against Netanyahu mostly just because he hasn’t been prioritizing the hostages and rather going Hannibal directive instead.

A community for discussing events around the World

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.

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

  • 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.
