A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
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.

IMHO, Doctors have a duty of care to whomever is their patient. I don't care whether that person is the second coming of Christ or the reincarnation of Adolf Hitler, they are entitled to effective care.
That's not to say that they can't be tried for their crimes, but the administration of justice is a different job from the administration of medicine.
I am glad to see humanity in some people amidst fighting between monsters.
I agree, and I do hope they are put to fair trial.
Unfortunately I'm also aware this could just be pushing a narrative - the whole thing is such a mess.
Talk about a test of principles for those doctors.
Israel shut down electricity, food, and water to Gaza. Idk fam where are they supposed to get medical care?
The west bank (under fatah) has Medical care.
Fatah has also expressed support for hamas.
Apparently someone has never watched MASH
A wounded Hamas terrorist, one of the thousands who invaded Israel in order to massacre Jewish civilians, was found in the area of the Be'er Sheva Airfield and evaluated in a Magen David Adom (MDA) ambulance to Sheba Tel-HaShomer Medical Center, where many of Hamas' victims are hospitalized.
Several other terrorists are receiving medical treatment in Israeli hospitals, including the Soroka, Barzilai, and Beilinson hospitals, alongside Israelis and foreign nationals who survived Hamas' massacre of 1,200 people on Saturday.
The Health Ministry stated: "The party that transports [the wounded terrorists] is the IDF. The Director General of the Health Minister discussed the matter last night with the Director General of the Defense Ministry to prepare for their treatment in Israel Prison Service facilities and not in civilian hospitals in accordance with the policy of the Health Minister. The dialogue is still taking place between the ministries in the hope of a breakthrough soon."
Following the reports of the Hamas terrorists being hospitalized alongside their victims, Health Minister Moshe Arbel wrote to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu about the issue.
"Since the beginning of the fighting, the issue of treating the wretched and despicable Hamas terrorists within the public hospitals has caused tremendous difficulty within the healthcare system.
"In these difficult times, the healthcare system should be fully focussed on the treatment of the victims of the criminal massacre, the IDF soldiers, and preparing for what comes next.
"The task of securing and treating the wretched and despicable terrorists within the public health system significantly harms these efforts and therefore, under my guidance, the public health system will not treat them.
"The handling of the matter should be entrusted to the IDF or the Israel Prisons Service, and of course, the Ministry of Health is ready and willing to assist these bodies, as needed.
"I will ask for your immediate guidance to implement this instruction among all the aforementioned bodies," Arbel's letter concluded.
Earlier, it was reported that Hamas terrorists who infiltrated Israel on Saturday have been using credit cards stolen from the homes that they broke into during the massacre.
The families of the kidnapped and murdered, and families living in the Gaza border area, on Wednesday morning said that they looked at their credit card charges and noticed that the cards taken from their homes and from those kidnapped are being used in Gaza.
Former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett, who was notified of this by the families, said, "I spoke with the CEOs of the banks and credit card companies. The companies are following the lists of murdered and kidnapped (which are not complete lists), and they are also blocking all sorts of purchases from Gaza."
Hamas must have good insurance. /s
Weird that they're using stock photos instead of using that space to provide evidence
I'm surprised it's not AI generated.
The IDF is now reporting Hamas is now sewing extra limbs onto people?

They also said they were beheading babies, but when asked for evidence they answered that "is disrespectful" and so no evidence. So that was bullshit. 🤷♂️
