News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. 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. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Yeah I'm not Jewish. I used to think a Jewish state wasn't necessary to provide a safe haven for Jews for times when antisemitism rises in the cycle that's been happening for centuries. Not that I was against there being a Jewish state, just didn't think it was an imperative. Antisemitism isn't going to come back, not after we've all seen the horrors of the holocaust.
Comments like yours have convinced me that yeah, there actually does need to be a Jewish state.
I'm not even Jewish but you're throwing slurs at me because of incorrect assumptions you're making based out of hatred. Israelis don't need to prove the necessity of a Jewish state. Your hatred proves it.
Zionism is not Judaism. Zionism requires a(n apartheid) Jewish state. Judaism does not.
Jews don't need their own state, you fucking shitbag. Yes, there is antisemitism and it's wrong. Do you think every minority deserves to wipe out other minorities to have their own state? They don't. Everyone deserves to live freely wherever they are.
Zionism is shit. Judaism is religion. I hate religion, but not Jews. Get fucked.
Honest question, how do you feel about Pakistan?
Victims of genocide. What other interpretation could there be?
Pakistan, not Palestine. The Muslim state that was established roughly around the same time and roughly the same manner.
