-
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.
-
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.

A lot of Hamas viewing a ceasefire deal "postively" but not actually agreeing to anything realistic.
Right now Israel has agreed to the US proposed ceasefire deal. Hamas once again are saying they are looking at it "positively" without agreeing to it. The UN Security Council has a binding resolution which Hamas is ignoring now.
Ever consider that the people that brutally murdered over a thousand people in a day might be capable of lying? They talk a lot about wanting a ceasefire but it's all just talk. There's a ceasefire agreement in front of them right now... and there's just more talk from them.
Damn he did all that work to help you... I have a friend just like you. They send me videos of these clowns on YouTube that tie the most random events together to come to the most insane conclusions. Like trivial to disprove stuff. And they turn their channels into little echo chambers by pruning everything out of the comments that isn't "Thanks for speaking the truth!"
Whoever your YouTuber is, they are lying to you.
I keep up on the news. I've read most of those things before... when they happened.
You may feel like if you can show people the information you're getting from a youtuber or tiktoker will convince someone. But you didn't consider that someone that doesn't get their news from youtube and tiktok may have seen these things already along with some other information that your favourite youtube/tiktok personality didn't tell you about.
Social media just isn't a good news source. You're getting a filtered version of events. Read the newspaper every day, you'll be informed about things beyond a narrative from someone trying to appease an algorithm.
Israel isn't a good news source. You clearly don't read anything else. News articles, human rights reports, and books written by Historians who have exhaustively researched this conflict all disagree with you.

How are you so willfully ignorant that you can't recognize how this applies to Israel, who has killed tens of thousands of people, the vast majority of women and children, and also injured three times as many people.
Israel has literally not agreed to the ceasefire proposal. Hamas has. Can you read beyond the title? The contention is that Hamas wants a assurance that Israel will follow the ceasefire. Israel wants to do the hostages swap, but only if they can continue bombing Palestinians afterwards.
