World News@lemmy.ml•Kamala Harris Says She Is Ready to Serve as Biden Faces Age Scrutiny
5·2 years agoIt’s wild watching Democrats doing everything they can to repeat 2016. Now it’s “Bidenomics” says the economy’s great, why won’t you listen to us? Appointing a special counsel that releases a report about illegally storing classified material that says Biden’s too forgetful to have had intent. Instead of collapsing at a 9/11 memorial, Biden’s had 4 major incidents with his memory in the space of a week. Biden’s net favorability of -17 is lower than Hillary hit even after the Comey report. DNC removing candidates from the primary ballot that they’re scared of. Next thing you know, we’re going to find out Biden never stopped in Wisconsin for the 2024 campaign.

The North Carolina Democratic Party acknowledged receiving requests for ballot access from Phillips and other candidates, but chose to only include Biden for its primary
The Democratic Party of Wisconsin left Phillips off the ballot; he appealed to the Wisconsin Supreme Court on January 26, 2024. The court unanimously ruled on February 2 that Phillips should be included on the ballot.

World News@lemmy.world•Israel plans to evacuate Rafah, full of refugees, and attack HamasEnglish
141·2 years agoRafah is pretty much the last place for people to go, that’s why 3/4ths of the population is there at this point. There aren’t any “safe zones”.

World News@lemmy.world•World Court says atrocities committed by Israeli military in Gaza are undeniable ‘facts’English
42·2 years agoKeep it civil please, and engage in good faith.
Al Mayadeen is not Hezbollah funded, no matter how many conspiracies people try to make up.
Should I bring up all the genocide denial in your post history? Claims that “Hamas uses teenage soldiers extensively”? Do you still think most people in the World News community here “seem to not consider Israeli’s as human”?
No matter how many reports you use to try to hide genocide, the truth will still come out.

World News@lemmy.world•World Court says atrocities committed by Israeli military in Gaza are undeniable ‘facts’English
23·2 years agoThe factuality rating is the same as they’ve rated many other sources such as Huffington Post, MSNBC, Salon, Daily Beast, Boing Boing, etc. The ratings are fairly skewed.
Even your rating site says they’ve not failed any fact checks.

10·2 years agoAnd Ben-Gvir is still the National Security Minister, completely untouched.
But at least he finally took down his tribute to a mass killer that’s been hanging in his home for decades. Small steps, right? I wonder if he ever gave Rabin’s hood ornament back.
Quite an interesting contrast between how the US dealt with Soleimani vs. Ben-Gvir.

World News@lemmy.ml•Investigation disproves Israel claim of Hamas tunnel under Gaza hospital
171·2 years agoYou clearly have no clue what you’re talking about. The hospital you’re referring to is Al-Ahli Arab Hospital. And the “rocket” from the footage you’re referring to has been proven to have been an Iron Dome projectile.
Israel has also attacked Al-Shifa hospital, Al-Quds hospital, the Indonesian hospital, the Turkish-Palestinian Friendship hospital, and the Qatari hospital described in the article.

Politics@beehaw.org•Supreme Court to decide if gun bans for domestic abusers are constitutional
5·2 years agoUnfortunately they’ve either learned nothing, or are more than happy to let it happen again - this time with the military. By 2026 or so there’s a very real chance that the military will be full of far right appointees that have no qualms about using nuclear weapons on population centers, carrying out genocides, employing the military against the American people, etc. etc. Just like the judiciary in 2014-2016, the military is full of vacancies waiting for the next far right president to fill overnight as soon as he takes power.

World News@lemmy.ml•More than 10,000 Palestinians killed in Israeli attacks on Gaza in past month (0.49% of population)
2·2 years agoA. The 1.5 million people have not “escaped” or been displaced “from Gaza”, they’ve been forced to move to different places in the Gaza Strip: shelters predominantly. There’s no ingress/egress from Gaza. It’s basically a giant open-air prison.
Israel erected a giant cage around the land boundary of the whole strip in 1993. There’s only 3 exits, all of which are closed: the Rafah crossing into Egypt, the Kerem Shalom crossing at the corner where Israel and Egypt touch, and the Erez crossing into Israel in the north.
Israel enforces a blockade of the shoreline, and a no fly zone. They destroyed Gaza’s airport in 2001.
B. “More than half” is doing some pretty heavy lifting. 1.5 million is closer to 75%.
C. 10,022 / 2,048,000 = 0.489355%. Since the post yesterday, Israel has killed another 283 people which brings it up to 10,305 / 2,048,000 = 0.503%.

I’m guessing Israel wasn’t bombing hostages. Although that guess has been wrong a lot.
