    Why Israel doesn’t like the UNRWA:

    UNRWA (United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East) was established in 1949 by a U.N. General Assembly resolution, following the war surrounding the founding of Israel, when 700,000 Palestinians fled or were driven from their homes.

    Today it directly employs 30,000 Palestinians, serving the civic and humanitarian needs of 5.9 million descendants of those refugees, in the Gaza Strip, West Bank and in vast camps in neighbouring Arab countries. In Gaza, it employs 13,000 people, running the enclave’s schools, its primary healthcare clinics and other social services, as well as distributing humanitarian aid. Its services in Gaza have increased in importance since 2005, when Israel and Egypt imposed a blockade causing an economic collapse with one of the highest unemployment rates in the world.

    https://www.reuters.com/world/what-is-unrwa-un-palestinian-refugee-agency-2024-01-29/

    It was created to deal with the fallout from Israel’s first ethnic cleansing, and since Israel hasn’t stopped, it’s still around.

    And right now would be a terrible time to get rid of it.

    mods please fix your moderation

    last time i pasted a comment trying to express fact based evidence of why israel is not committing genocide but it got removed , please let others with opposing views show their evidences other wise you are increasing the suffering of both the gazans and israelis, you are trying to marginalize and radicalize pro-pallestinians more and more if you try to shut the communication of facts between them, simply shouting hasbara and israeli propaganda is just ad hominem , if this war escalates you will have not just anti-israelis but also anti-west here as well, infact in some threads you already do.

    so please kindly be fair with moderation , let us not turn this into an echo chamber :-), sort the thread in such a way that both arguments are communicated, communication the way to peace and solving problems

      It takes about 2 seconds of looking at your profile to find comments such as…

      if whole muslim world wants to invade me maybe i am not the problem. they are

      So if youre going to talk about others spreading misinformation, kindly shut the fuck up.

      Y’all already have the uncritical support of corporate news media and basically every US politician. I don’t think there’s any risk your propaganda won’t be able to spread, you can relax.

      Suggest you forward your fact-based info as an Amicus Curiae brief to the ICJ, and/or to Israeli barristers who will deeply appreciate your hard work on behalf of Zionism.

      Otherwise … fuck off.

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.
