          The israeli “evidence” has been leaked and confirmed fake

          Are the quotes you provided supposed to support the “confirmed fake” part of your comment?

          Because “has not seen proof” and “provides no evidence” do not equate to “confirmed fake”.

          The number of very online people who think countries share their intelligence with every Channel 4 news who asks is a little surprising.

              That’s bold considering all the things people on this site were so sure about only to be proven wrong weeks later.

              For me, I’ll wait for the investigation to finish.

                The “evidence” was already leaked and contained no proof whatsoever. Waiting must be convenient. Are we going to see the Hamas base under the hospital soon?

                And it turned out israel lied almost every single time about almost everything.

                Let’s not forget

                But there is a problem with the gut-wrenching narratives that have bolstered the underlying justification for the slaughter of Gaza: They are either complete fabrications or have not been substantiated with a shred of evidence. Many have been thoroughly disproven by major Israeli media outlets.

                  Hamas had command tunnel under U.N. Gaza headquarters, Israeli military says

                  Reporters on the closely escorted trip entered a shaft next to a school on the periphery of the U.N. compound, descending to the concrete-lined tunnel. Twenty minutes of walking through the stifling hot, narrow and occasionally winding passage brought them underneath UNRWA Headquarters, an army lieutenant-colonel leading the tour said.

                  So, yeah. I think I’ll wait for the investigation to conclude.

        The evidence provided by Israel alleging that roughly a dozen UNRWA staffers participated in Hamas’s October 7 terror onslaught is “highly credible,” US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Monday, as media outlets published additional details on the implicated employees, including photos from an Israeli dossier. “We haven’t had the ability to investigate [the allegations] ourselves. But they are highly, highly credible,” Blinken said during a press conference

        • Until the information is verified by neutral third parties, this gives me some WMDs in Iraq vibes.

          Both Israel and the US have a history of lying to justify war crimes and crimes against humanity.

            I used to have faith that bad people will eventually pay for their crimes. That the weight of their sins will crush them eventually. But these past decades have taught me that the new response to crushing weight of sin is to simply get a stronger spine.

          Otoh, Blinken and Biden have parroted everything the IDF feeds them until independent journalists debunk it.

          So we’ve cut funding without conducting any investigation. Great.

          This sounds like something The Onion would have written.

      @snek@lemmy.world Maybe you could Crosspost this to !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca if you’re on mobile and don’t have crosspost button just make a new post using the same link as this post https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/20e095d5-b044-4e69-b1d7-486f63ac3037.png and it’ll count as a crosspost. So long as it’s the same link.

        “Bad faith arguments” is not a reason to flag people in Lemmy Shitpost. Please do not abuse the flagging system again.

            Mods are for enforcing community rules. This is a shitpost community, not a debate community. The rules are very clear on the sidebar and ‘bad faith arguments’ is not one of them.

            Feel free to find a different community if you want to report ‘bad faith arguments’ multiple times. If you do it here, I’m going to tell you to stop before I act. Because I prefer give warnings.

              And you can’t enforce ANY rule without protecting your people against bad faith arguing. It’s a foundation of ALL communities, whether explicitly written in its guidelines or not, because meaningful debate is the foundation of ALL human interaction and is primarily what abuse and harassment is.

              The needs of your people are more important than your laziness, selfishness, and unwillingness to do your job. Don’t like it? Step the fuck down. You go find a different community to play king over if you don’t like it.

                Okay, I think you need to take a break. We’ll see you in a week. I wouldn’t advise telling another mod to ‘step the fuck down.’ They might be less lenient.

                  “Dont tell people abusing their power that they are abusing their power or they might abuse their power”

                  Yeah you should probably step down if that is your opinion…

      The weapons embargo in Alderaan prevented those people from handing over the Jedi. The Empire itself maintains that embargo! What were the people of Alderaan to do?

    I hear at least one of the Jedi was a Sith, good thing they were defunded. Now if we could only defund all the conspiracy theorists about the emperor being a Sith as well.
