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.
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 OCTOBER 19 2025
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.

That's what a ceasefire is, for Israel. You have to stop shooting them, while they continue to shoot you. And if you shoot back then that's an unprovoked violation of the ceasefire and they get to shoot you more.
You cease, I fire, that's how it works
I am not cheese, you are not fire, what are you talking about?
Rules for thee, but not for me.
I read this in Daniella Weiss' voice
Israel must be dissolved and de-nazified.
There will be maybe 3 people, 4 max, remaining after the de-nazification.
Not that I disagree with it, tho. Just pointing out that you'll need a cheap and efficient method to do it.
De-nazification doesn't mean "kill all Nazis;" it means "make people stop being Nazis." If you have a cheap and efficient method for that, I'm all ears.
It doesn't necessarily mean that, but it could. We could start with Nuremberg style trials, and hang the worst of the worst, then see from there.
But most likely a lot can be saved by a lot of education and a system that doesn't support their inhumane behavior towards Palestinians.
We could make propaganda or boycott, but that’s probably illegal 😕
Once all of the Palestinians and others pushed out of the region by Israel's decades long ethnic cleansing campaign return to their homes, I'm sure they'll be able to forge a new society from what remains.
De-nazification obviously shouldn't be death - except perhaps for people like Bibi himself, and other leaders - but truth and reconciliation campaigns, cult deprogramming, re-education initiatives, and laws against zionists holding positions of power in the new nation formed.
The people of the area they are trying to call "israel" will need to be put under adult leadership, and give up self rule. They have shown that cannot be trusted to govern a region.
They are a terrorist group.
Have they ever respected a ceasefire?
They signed a ceasefire in Lebanon in November and violated it thousands of times, killing hundreds.
When Hezbollah finally responded the West blamed them for starting a war.
They often go years between major violations, if that counts. But they've been committing violence in the region even before they were a country
Iran, meanwhile, has fired several salvos of ballistic missiles at Israel since the ceasefire was reportedly supposed to take effect.
Yeah, did Iran/Israel actually negotiate a ceasefire between each other or was it just an Iran/US ceasefire....
Based on what I've read its just US-Iran, not Israel too. Ie many of the comments are wrong about Israel breaking a ceasefire.
You can't tell a mad dog what to do. You just have to put it down.
While Trump is desperately trying to get his dick out of the meat grinder of a war in the middle east, Netanyaho does care f about war crimes, and will continue making enemies all around him.
Terrorists being terrorists, same as always for israel.
Iran shouldnt have agreed to it until they decimated the zionist entity
So forever war? Because they don't have that capability.
I'm shocked, SHOCKED! well not that shocked.
I was saying this would happen when I read the announcement. Israel is running the show here.
No way! They’ve never done that before
I thought the US announced a "ceasefire" because too many Congress people were mumbling about impeachment over the Easter tweets, and also because USA is running out of bombs and the soldiers are dying too fast. I didn't realize that Iran reciprocated and agreed to some sort of negotiations with the USA.
Edit Israel is gonna Israel. Perhaps Iran gotta Iran on Israel.
You know what recently came to my mind...
Israel is basically a military outpost for the US in the middle east. it's one large military base that is supposed to pressure arab countries into giving their oil to the US. It's "either you sell your oil in US dollar (which we can conveniently print at will) or ... you know, Israel is your neighbor, and they have a ton of arms". It's an extortion scheme.
This is why Israel is threatened by renewable energy. Because if the world is not dependent on oil, then Israel has no reason to exist, as the US won't give them a lot of weapons anymore to conduct their extortion scheme. And then Israel would collapse.
Israel claiming ceasefire is the same as a kid saying it's their turn when you're play fighting.
