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.

The antisemites will be our allies

-Theodor Herzl (paraphrased because I can't be assed to get the original quote).

No one is sympathetic to their plight anymore as they have clearly become the aggressor beyond a doubt.

They always have been; it just took a livestreamed genocide for Westerners to get the point.

People have been sick of them for ages but a lot of politicians in the Western world, are, for some reason, beholden to Israel and have always criticised people who speak out against them. Even when that criticism is entirely justified and has nothing to do with religion and everything to do with specific individuals in the Israeli government, and their personal actions.

I reckon the Epstein pedo honeypot that was run by Mossad and the CIA is a lot of that reason.

Also the US runs tons of digital surveillance of their allies and Israel specializes on things like remote hacking smartphones (most companies doing that shit aren't based in Israel by chance), so even when they don't have photos of the politicians diddling kids they'll have other compromising material on them such as evidence of Corruption.

Most politicians in the West nowadays are little more than posh salesmen devoid of ideology who were attracted to the job by the Power and/or Money, so the chances of them not being crooked in some way are pretty low.
