In less than a year, over 130 journalists have been killed by Israeli forces in Gaza. To pay homage to these fallen reporters and demand the protection of Palestinian journalists, Reporters Without Borders (RSF) is holding flash protests in ten different countries.
For the West, Lebanese lives are as disposable as Palestinian lives. Its calls for a ceasefire are no more than a sham.
True. Many countries just opt for labour agreements with the origin countries that disadvantages the guest workers.

Laws and regulations can only go far to stop private citizens from abusing the weak and helpless, but it is better if they exist, there's a chance they may be enforced.
Everything is projection with the US. Accuses others of using slavery, uses it themselves.
Eric Adams proved to be an asshole when he said he plans on retiring in the Golan Heights.
The post provides resources to support those in Lebanon affected by recent violence and displacement.
Most Zionists are Christians, e.g. Joe Biden and Mike Pompeo.
Unions say ‘blatant’ violations of international wage protections have tipped many into extreme poverty
Israel’s mass terror attack in Lebanon that led to the death and maiming of hundreds of civilians also served as a playbook for how Israel seeks to justify its war crimes. But as the attack’s aftermath showed, these tricks are beginning to fail.
Once again “the earth” is supposedly synonymous with “that one country in North America”…
they gave North American examples but the statement is universally true
I wish I didn't have to, but federation for technical or political doesn't work so well so I need an account for Lemmy, Kbin, Mastodon, and other less popular apps like Akkoma. Though 90% of my activity is on Lemmy.
Israel is a plague on the region and a stain on humanity, and the US enables it.
To think Reagan was able to do more with one phone call with Begin than Biden did in 12 months with Netanyahu.
At least 22 people, mostly women and children, have been killed in an Israeli strike on a school compound Saturday, Palestinian officials said, with Israel saying it targeted Hamas fighters sheltering there.

The World Health Organization chief stated on Tuesday that Israeli tanks had fired on an aid convoy over the weekend.
You mean the US constitution wasn’t written by god and handed down by Jesus?
The U.N. General Assembly strongly supported a nonbinding Palestinian resolution Wednesday demanding that Israel end its “unlawful presence” in Gaza and the occupied West Bank within a year
China's ambassador to UN said if US had not protected Israel, multiple Security Council resolutions would not have been defied
The U.S. State Department has approved a new $165 million arms deal for Israel to help fund heavy-duty tank trailers. This comes as the official death toll from Israel’s war on Gaza has topped 41,200. On Saturday, an Israeli airstrike on a house in Gaza City killed 11 Palestinians, including four ch...
The desire for a ceasefire in the United States, certainly among Democrat voters, is clear. So why does the U.S. continue to act the way it does?
Consider this: climate change is being accelerated at a time when we are overdue to reduce it and what we are getting out of it is plagiarism and wrong answers.

My opinion of Israelis can't get any worse
Lemmy.world is compromised. I avoid the big communities there.
It is fun reading other countries’ journalists writing about the US the same way the US writes about their countries. Though judging by the downvotes not a lot in the US have a sense of humour or self-awareness.
Just casual islamophobia
It is somewhat reassuring that no matter the political system, people everywhere are lead by superstitious charlatans
The US is propping up a puppet regime, and for a discount. 1.3 billion is nothing compared to what Egypt offers in return.
One could argue that the US indirectly drove Europe to the far right.
Bully the world > some radicals with limited means decide to fight back in unorthodox ways > declare war on the radicals you nurtured > millions flee the wars you start and go to Europe > Europeans lose their mind and become increasingly racist and xenophobic
A bolt-from-the-blue attack by Hamas produced the deadliest day for Jews since the Holocaust.
I hate Bloomberg and whoever writes for it. Who gives a fuck about some criminal settlers who got killed? Palestine is for Palestinians and they have every right to resist foreign invaders even if they were Jewish invaders. Also no mention of Israel’s genocidal response. Racist swines.
Still an entertaining read given where it is from.
They are nominally attacking out of sympathy for the Palestinian people
They said they will stop if the genocide stops. Stop the US-Israeli genocide in Gaza and find out. It should be very easy to call their bluff.
Iran has provided weapons and the know-how needed to manufacture them.
No. Yemen’s missile program started decades ago with the help of the USSR.
Since October 2023, they have allowed most of China’s shipping to pass without harm.
Not just the Chinese. The embargo is on US, UK, Israeli ships and any ship heading to Israeli ports in Occupied Palestine
Beijing and Moscow reap geopolitical rewards when America is burdened by Middle Eastern conflicts, so both are willing to let this crisis fester, or even make it worse.
Are you sure it isn’t Washington DC by allowing the genocide to continue?
Russia’s war in Ukraine is simultaneously stressing another bedrock principle, the norm against forcible conquest.
Completely ignoring Israel doing the same to Palestinians since at least 1967.
If international law doesn’t apply in Palestine, it doesn’t apply anywhere else either
