Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Also any guess as to why 'displaced persons camp'? Pretty sure those used to be refuge camps.

Do they think that sounds better? What a fucking joke.

Gaza is already a refugee camp, so I guess that's what you call a refugee camp in a refugee camp?

One of George Carlin's most famous acts was in talking about euphemistic language hiding horrible atrocities. And funny enough, in that same act, he talked about Israel and Palestine and the language used in western media to refer to them.

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

Collective punishment. Cold blooded murder.

Nazis were also executing 100 Poles for every German killed by partisans.

"All USA supplied ordinance is painstakingly crafted to kill as many civilians as possible, as a threat to any who would attack you."

amerikkka media is reporting hamas-base zionazi bullshit as an "oppsie." Also still refering to it as the "Israel-Hamas" war just following orders.

How about this headline: Israeli soldier steps on rake

spoiler200 killed in air strikes in Gaza

you know things are bad when even the mostly pro-Israel libs on social media are going like "uhh... Israel what are you doing, this is actually horrifying"

Hey did something happen to this article?

I was going to post a criticism hours ago of a few immediate things I noticed about the article, but going back now it's changed majorly. The title of this post is far closer to the original title, and if @[email protected] is correct, the rockets weren't fired from the refugee camp but with this wording they're making it sound like it is, also the first sentence going in very specifically said the Hamas run Gazan health ministry provided the numbers. I was going to criticize the blatant propaganda but the article looks majorly altered.

Yea the headline is way different. Netanyahu said sorry so I guess MSM 'realized' this one's really bad.
