TEHRAN (Tasnim) - Dozens of loud explosions were heard in the Mrayjeh area in the southern suburb of Beirut, just past midnight on Friday, due to an Israeli air raid.
Not that I in any way support Israel’s campaign of violence, but I’m not sure these kinds of posts from and questionable news sources are doing anyone any favors. For those of us who already oppose the Israeli campaign, there’s nothing new here. For those who do, these kinds of sensationalist posts just push them farther back into their views.
The best case scenario is to open peoples’ eyes to the harm Israel is doing and convince them to change their opinion, which a more neutral has a better chance of doing.
Damn that’s crazy, I don’t remember asking you though. Why would I want the opinion of some pearl clutching, civility policing, tutting, preening, self-obsessed little liberal who thinks every post is for him? Why would I want the opinion of someone so cowardly they can’t call terrorism what it is? Why would you admit that?
If you want the posts to fit an editorial framework you agree with, I would be more than happy to direct you to an RSS feed application so that you can subscribe to what you like without being burdened with my posts. Just let me know what your platform is. I know Reddit has severely damaged your mind and I’m glad to help.
You did know you can go find the news yourself instead of critiquing other people’s posting like a Piss Sommelier?
You have nothing of value to contribute to the discussion other than saying “gee I wish that I was still on Reddit where I wouldn’t see Iranian or Russian news”. Even by the rules of “Reddit style” imageboards like this you should be ashamed of begging me to pretend I’m on reddit.
Guess what buddy I already knew you would grumble seeing my posts and I don’t care what you think because there are millions of utterly worthless replacements for you.
You are on a link aggregator website begging for more of the same Associated Press/AFP news sources, opeds from Zionist newspapers like The Atlantic and The New York Times. Even on its face, you’re a very bland and uninteresting person with no thoughts which aren’t interchangeable with every other mopey tech worker on reddit. But demanding more government censored sources on a free platform is downright insidious and you should be ashamed of yourself.
I’ve got the impression that you have at some point decided to use a bit of your energy every day to make lemmy a worse place. Maybe this is even your outlook towards the world in general, I have no way to know. I just want to let you know that you are succeeding. :)
Using “hearts and minds” here is just too good. You do realize my OP post demonstrates the actual hearts and minds strategy of the US military? Terrorism combined with corrupt anthropology. Look up what happened to the “Human Terrain Project” researchers - I hope it happens to you!
Redditors just pathologically spout idioms even when it just deepens their appearance of idiocy.
I’m not here to cater to your editorial tastes or tut tut about online etiquette. You’re wasting your time just like you always do online.
That last part, “… like you always do …” Is not a normal US speech pattern.
What the hell are you talking about? Of course it is. It’s not just a valid construction, it’s idiomatic!
Yet your uname is Southern Boy.

It’s pathetic how you immediately jump to trying to insinuate that the other user is a foreigner pretending to be American so they can do dezinformatsiya when it is neither clear where they come from nor where they claim to come from.
but when you start talking Zionism, it gets close to antisemitism
Conflating anti-zionism and antisemitism is antisemitism, straight up, and it’s a form that zionists love using to silence opposition. Israel should not exist, and there is nothing antisemitic about that statement.

Is it any less reliable than other state-affiliated news agency? Maybe. Depends on your perspective.

My dude, you’re posting on a social comments platform. If you don’t want other people to comment, then why post here?

How butthurt are you over seeing news posts you dislike? You people are seriously pathetic.
Oh, sorry, I think we have a misunderstanding. Your news post is fine. It is the way you interact with others that made me just a bit sad.
Keep your concern trolling about Reddiquette to yourself or risk wasting more of our precious time on this earth.
Wow. You’ll totally win hearts and minds talking like that.
Southern Boy. Hmm. Where in the South?

We love banning antisemitic zionists here folks, its a hell of a good time
“you’re not catching irony” is not a normal US speech pattern. Are you perhaps an agent of the Saudi government? They are quite influential.
Zionism is terrorism, you are just too cowardly to openly state your belief in terrorism. You wish for a kindlier, gentler terrorism.
