This conflict has spanned for decades and has spread so far. Learning about every little thing has been overwhelming enough. Finding a way to organize that information is no easy task either. This comment will be used as an anchor to showcase a plethora of information regarding the conflict, both in background and the present. I still don't know if it should be organized by news source or events themselves; maybe it will be a mix.

Crisis is not the right word. It's Palestinian Genocide, perpetuated by Israel, and supported by the Western world.

[–] groupofcrows@lemmy.ca -1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Agreed but what has the Arab / Muslim world done to oppose this? Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan etc.

[–] turkishdelight@lemmy.ml 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Arabs fought multiple wars against Israel

[–] groupofcrows@lemmy.ca -3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Recently, this year. What have the Arab/Muslim governments and public done to protest what is happening. I am not advocating for war/violence but is it just business as usual with Israel and USA?

[–] turkishdelight@lemmy.ml 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

War with Israel means war with America and Europe. There is no Arab nation that can win that fight.

[–] groupofcrows@lemmy.ca -2 points 8 months ago (2 children)

I am not suggesting war. I am asking if there are demonstrations, have the governments and public done anything to protest what is happening. Have they closed embassies or degraded the relationship in any way?

[–] Tenskwatawa@lemmy.ml 5 points 8 months ago (1 children)

The public in just about all Arab countries have been doing unprecedented amounts of protests. Particularly in Jordan. I do see where you are coming from though in comparison to prior conflicts the tactic support the majority of Arab leadership has given Israel more and more of over the years has boiled over and been shown to be nothing less than treason. Britain can go to war for Poland but Jordan can't go to war for Gaza, the PA security forces can't even go to war for Gaza. It is a treacherous state of affairs in that regard. On the flip side Lebanon has been involved since nearly the start of this conflict and the pressure they've put on thus far isn't to be scoffed at, though more could be done its been established that would be US intervention. More importantly though just look at what the Yemenis are doing, and they show no sign of backing down, having just come out of their war with the KSA and UAE to boot. Though I will say even for the Saudi leadershipleadership etc. etc. They're all being forced to cut normalization with Israel and their relations with the US have strained. They have to or else all these protests might just turn into revolutions. (Saudi hasnt had protests I'm referring to Arab countries allied to the US generally)

[–] groupofcrows@lemmy.ca 1 points 8 months ago

Thanks for the reply.

[–] turkishdelight@lemmy.ml 2 points 8 months ago

Most Arab countries don't recognize Israel already.

[–] scytale@lemm.ee 7 points 10 months ago

Thank you for this. It was getting tiring seeing out-of-context and opinionated stuff getting posted on a world news community, where there is a reasonable expectation that posts should be actual news of current events from news sources.

Y'know what, I might have some issues with the mods here, but at least they never said "It's the same story. "Russia plans to attack NATO", we get it, you don't have to re-post it 6 times. 24 hour ban for arguing the point and abusive posting"when someone posted stories about how Estonian, German, Polish, and French governments all made independent statements about Russia's plans for NATO.

[–] cyclohexane@lemmy.ml 1 points 10 months ago

Israel just bombed Beirut, targeting a Hamas official.

This is a major escalation, and could mean an expansion of Hezbollah's involvement, spreading the war into other parts of the Middle East.
