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.

Biden did not push back. It is a fact. He bypassed the congres twice to give aid to Israel. He allowed Israel to add new conditions in cease fire term then blame the failure of reaching a deal on Hamas. Trump did bypass the congress too but becuse you are a dumb democratc cultist you will act i never condemned Trump. Both trump and biden could have secured a real cease fire but decided not to

You can't deny that most of the destruction and murder of palestinians happened during Biden
I can deny that - and I also agree that Biden didn't do enough. But to say the Biden administration was as bad as Trump's is crazy.
Your source show that the majority of causalities happened during Biden. My source shows the majority of descruction happen during Biden. Biden stayed in office during the genocide 471 days , Trump 496 days.
Biden :
Fatalities: 47,460
Injuries: 111,580
Trump:
Fatalities: There were 72,289 recorded fatalities.
Injuries: There were 172,040 recorded injuries.
You are so soft when critisizng Biden complicity with genocide while I am harsh on both. Trump could have been 90% better than Biden and I would still believe the minimum punishement is a life time sentence for him
In their chart, it's pretty clear that the death rate in Gaza went up just as Trump took control. His rhetoric at the time was very pro-Isreal and encouraging them to eradicate the Palestinians, put up casinos, and all that. And then it slowed way down in Oct last year when the pseudo peace agreement brokered by the U.S. started. So credit where it's due, they managed to make some sort of improvement then. But all Presidents have tried to make peace deals in Isreal/Gaza - it's not like Biden wouldn't have likely done that too. And the U.S. has now allowed isreal to attack Lebanon. And of course the Iran attacks which then US didn't just support but was actively attacking. And of course Biden might have done the same, it's not totally off script, although a Biden or Harris admin probably wouldn't have fucked up the closing of the straight so badly. I don't think any president would have stopped Isreal from launching a debilitating strike against Hamas after the October attacks. And then Hezbollah joining in made them a legit target too. I don't think Biden did enough to pressure Isreal to safeguard civilians and to provide humanitarian aid. I'm not taking it easy on him. But the point is that it's still as clear as anything that Trump was worse for the people of Gaza than Harris would have been. And the steadfast refusal to accept that and vote accordingly is what what got Trump elected, and what will get maga elected again (and then fuck over more people of the world, like in Cuba for example).
What a stupid angle. The mortality from the start of the genocide to the last day of Biden in office is higher than during Trump in the same time frame. So Biden was slightly than Trump
There is no big difference between trump talking about ethnically cleansing Palestinians from the land then Israel allow trump's casino and Biden lying about seeking a cease fire and allow israel to ethnically cleansing all Palestinians so israel build settlements again
I don't give credit to a half baked cease fire when Trump could end the genocide completely, same as Biden. See, I am harsher on Trump than you based on facts
You seem to have a memory of a fly? Because Biden did allow Israel to attack Lebanon
Not a single one tried to make a real peace deal . Not a single one advocated for a Palestinian states will all it's right and threats if Israel refuses to slowly dismantle settlements.
You should be happy not sad that Iran has control of the straight because otherwise Iran would have no leverage and Israel/USA may have succeeded to create another failed state. Giving the money to Israel to bomb Iran or the USA bombing itself Iran is equally bad.
All evidence show the opposed as I already shows in this post
Biden withdrawing too late and Harris because one of the dumbest politician I ever seen who couldn't convice she would be better for the economy and border security along with the shitty two party system make Trump wins
So that's the point. Harris easily made the case that she was better for security and the economy. And she was quite clearly better on ME politics too despite your mental gymnastics trying to make yourself believe otherwise. But she wasn't good enough for too many leftist morons in the U.S. and so we got maga/trump. It seems like you're happy with Trump winning, so good on you I guess.
