World News@lemmy.ml•Amnesty International finds no evidence of military targets at Rafah sites targeted by Israel
132·2 years agoI’m guessing Israel wasn’t bombing hostages. Although that guess has been wrong a lot.
“Even if Israeli forces had intended to target legitimate military objectives in the vicinity, these attacks evidently failed to distinguish between military objectives and civilian objects and would therefore be indiscriminate,” Amnesty International said in the report. “Indiscriminate attacks that kill and injure civilians are war crimes.”

World News@lemmy.ml•Kamala Harris Says She Is Ready to Serve as Biden Faces Age Scrutiny
5·2 years agoIt’s wild watching Democrats doing everything they can to repeat 2016. Now it’s “Bidenomics” says the economy’s great, why won’t you listen to us? Appointing a special counsel that releases a report about illegally storing classified material that says Biden’s too forgetful to have had intent. Instead of collapsing at a 9/11 memorial, Biden’s had 4 major incidents with his memory in the space of a week. Biden’s net favorability of -17 is lower than Hillary hit even after the Comey report. DNC removing candidates from the primary ballot that they’re scared of. Next thing you know, we’re going to find out Biden never stopped in Wisconsin for the 2024 campaign.

The Democratic Party of Wisconsin left Phillips off the ballot; he appealed to the Wisconsin Supreme Court on January 26, 2024. The court unanimously ruled on February 2 that Phillips should be included on the ballot.

World News@lemmy.world•World Court says atrocities committed by Israeli military in Gaza are undeniable ‘facts’English
43·2 years agoKeep it civil please, and engage in good faith.
Al Mayadeen is not Hezbollah funded, no matter how many conspiracies people try to make up.
Should I bring up all the genocide denial in your post history? Claims that “Hamas uses teenage soldiers extensively”? Do you still think most people in the World News community here “seem to not consider Israeli’s as human”?
No matter how many reports you use to try to hide genocide, the truth will still come out.

25·2 years agoThe factuality rating is the same as they’ve rated many other sources such as Huffington Post, MSNBC, Salon, Daily Beast, Boing Boing, etc. The ratings are fairly skewed.
Even your rating site says they’ve not failed any fact checks.

World News@lemmy.world•Biden issues executive order targeting Israeli settlers who attack PalestiniansEnglish
121·2 years agoAnd Ben-Gvir is still the National Security Minister, completely untouched.
But at least he finally took down his tribute to a mass killer that’s been hanging in his home for decades. Small steps, right? I wonder if he ever gave Rabin’s hood ornament back.
Quite an interesting contrast between how the US dealt with Soleimani vs. Ben-Gvir.

World News@lemmy.ml•Investigation disproves Israel claim of Hamas tunnel under Gaza hospital
231·2 years agoYou clearly have no clue what you’re talking about. The hospital you’re referring to is Al-Ahli Arab Hospital. And the “rocket” from the footage you’re referring to has been proven to have been an Iron Dome projectile.
Israel has also attacked Al-Shifa hospital, Al-Quds hospital, the Indonesian hospital, the Turkish-Palestinian Friendship hospital, and the Qatari hospital described in the article.














The US didn’t propose a ceasefire yet. In response to this ceasefire proposal they’ve said they’re working on a draft for a proposal. With an indeterminate ceasefire of indeterminate length to start at an indeterminate date.
But strangely, once actual dates and times get proposed, they bring out the veto.
One could argue that it sure looks like they’re trying to muddy the waters and give Israel cover.
