Of course they did. Israelis are war fucking criminals, bloodthirsty murderers.
World News
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.
-
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 OCTOBER 19 2025
-
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.

Man, Israel really turned from victims of fascism to fascists themselves, bent on conquering everything they can.
Now they're hell bent on expansion, how well did that go again in the past?
The only reason they've been able to do this shit so far is because now we haveore fascists again. Hello trump, you. The only way this stops is when people, countries, start standing up and start fucking giving Israel the finger.
Fuck that "but wewe poow jews, wemembew jews and how we were treated??!!!". Fuck that shit, that was nearly a 100 years ago and pretty much nobody has forgotten except for Israeli Jews. Those that should have been the first to remember were the first to forget. This has NOTHING to do with anti semitism, this is anti fascism. Israël is a fascist state.
Hello beginnings of WWIII!
Not 4, just 3 with a !
I can't believe people are still in denial. You have the world biggest superpower simultaneously attacking several countries and threatening to attack all their closest neighbors.
Its actually hell how we allow this to happen how we allowed the formation of zionist state in the first place its disgusting
Truman supported them even right after his security thwarted a mail bomb aimed at him by Zionists.
Are we calling this whole situation in the middle east and Europa a world war yet?
Remember how innocent we were the FIRST time Trump bombed Iran and we thought he was starting world war 3? Such sweet summer children were we.
And now South Asia as well, with the sinking of an Iranian frigate off Sri Lanka.
I am. We don't need permission to call it what it is.
Man, I really hate being on the Axis side. I hope we lose.
We already lost. Trump got bullied/suckered by Israel into this mess without a clearly defined American win scenario. Israel has one and they are getting it. The US does not, because Trump is weak and catastrophically dumb, ignorant, narcissistic, and incompetent.
We... we lost two THAAD radar arrays, already.
We... can't intercept too many missiles without those.
They're like $1.5 billion USD each, roughly adjusted for inflation.
And... I think there were only like, 12 of these things, total. Anywhere. As of a week ago.
We reportedly have been trying to take away the one we use in South Korea, to redeploy it.
This is ... beyond completely tits up.
Trump is saying the US Navy will just escort any willing vessel through the Strait of Hormuz.
And... what, we're gonna use all our fleet defensive systems, to .... shoot down the missiles that Iran can build 10x faster than we can build interceptors?
Taiwan is now completely fucked, if anyone hasn't figured that out yet, we will now almost certainly not have enough missiles to repel an invasion from the PLAN and PLAAF.
This is... extremely bad situation, if you are generally a fan of yourself and other people not dieing a violent death.
They're not only squandering their position as a global leader and the good will of our allies, but the military might and defensive capabilities too.
They're literally going to make the continental US vulnerable to attack by wasting so many resources in this pointless war of aggression.
They're moving at least one from S Korea to replace one of the destroyed ones. Hopefully it gets blown up too.
Epstein was the ultimate life insurance policy for Israel. Most of the americal leaders are in their pocket because of the kompromat he collected for decades for the foreign agencies (Israeli and Russian it seems).
Some are saying that this is a brilliant tactic by Trump. They took Venezuela, where China gets much of their oil, and now we've blocked Hormuz, where China gets the rest of its oil. They think this will crush China.
But China still has about a 100 day reserve. When that runs out, they will do something to get leverage for more oil - like take Taiwan. They need the oil, we need the chips. We've always worried about them taking Taiwan, and now Trump is going to force their hand with his "brilliant" chess playing.
I hope that we do an Itlay
People who will win: defense contractors, evangelical christians with investments in Israel, oil companies that can pull the "make money" lever at whim, saudi princes and everyone who is going to shore up around the capitalist might of US/Israel's war machine.
People who will lose: anyone who needs insulin, food or childcare.
Classic Israeli tactic. Big mate allowed to feel like the tough guy, whilst the little shits do something sneaky and nasty whilst the world looks elsewhere.

The end game
a cancer spreading
Fucking psychos. Even at their peak, the biblical Israel was never that expansive. What farcical claim do they even attempt to make to this?
Their farcical claim has been pretty visible for a while now: they need not only the land they consider sacred and theirs but also a security buffer around it. If pressed, they will explain how a security buffer is not just an arbitrary distance of land but possession of key surrounding geographic positions. And that requires them to go all the way to THIS map.
Their acquisition of the Golan Heights set the template for this. Israel used to enjoy saying that they never started any of the conflicts, but even then they would admit that they annexed the Golan proactively because of its strategic positioning and key water sources in the area.
Clearly they won’t be talking about how they never started any of the conflicts anymore. They think they have more to gain than lose by letting that claim go.
Okay, well in that case all their neighbors need a security buffer too, which includes the key geographic position of their entire country.
See how easy it is to make bullshit claims when you're a fucking sociopathic narcissist who doesn't understand or care that other people's needs are just as valid as your own, and that you can't just take things that aren't yours just because you want it?
Children understand this, but apparently the knesset doesn't. It would be pathetic if it wasn't so close to getting the entire world blown up...
Hard to imagine only half of the Arabian Peninsula or just a minor sliver of the Levant would be enough. "We're here, why isn't it ours" seems like the Israeli motto.
Ahhh so thats why we bombed iran.
Hope for lots of dead Israeli soldiers!
Lebanon can’t catch a break.
While everyone is looking the other way, they move the borders. Once again. A little bit of this, a little bit of that. Gotta do it while the guy whom they can blackmail with epstein videos is in power.
