World News
A community for discussing events around the World
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. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating 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 10/19
-
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.

So pogroms are back, that’s probably not a great sign for the species
Bruh, you think race riots ever went away. They've just been gone for the Jews. There was literally a race war between Hindus and Christians in Manipur, India earlier this year. Muslims have been actively cleansed in Burma for a half decade now. There was a decades long war between the Sinhalese and Tamil people in Sri Lanka. There were the 2002 Gujrat Riots where 2000 Muslims were killed where the government condoned the violence and actively refused to intervene. The same man is in charge of India now with the largest mandate ever.
wtf?! What has this got to do with India?! But then I checked your profile, looks like you are a Pakistani.
Pakistan has already killed more Muslims than Israel:
More than 23,000 Shias have been killed since 1963 according to this video: https://youtu.be/KjdsKVRAbPU
Bengal genocide
Here your PM Imran Khan himself said that the army is bombing the Balochi Muslims: https://twitter.com/navneet_mundhra/status/1168770123412340737?s=20
Pakistani constitution has anti Ahmediyya laws in place, which says that Ahmediyyas are not muslims. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-pakistan-religion/pakistans-ahmadi-community-releases-damning-persecution-report-idUSKBN1HZ06R
Many Ahmediyyas flew to Nepal because of the persecution https://themuslimtimes.info/2019/06/20/ahmadis-in-pakistan-face-persecution-flee-to-nepal/
Pakistan accused of dumping over 1000 bodies of Balochi Muslims https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-38454483
Now, let us dismantle this political correctness when it comes to Jews vs Muslims conflict.
Islamic holy scriptures literally have antisemitism enshrined in their doctrines, like Nazism is part of Islam. That's why they have been at war for 1000s of years now.
Muslims aren't even allowed to wish their Islamic greeting to Jews and Christians, that's how antisemitic their scriptures are.
Here a Muslim refuses to wish their greeting to a Jew: https://x.com/israel_advocacy/status/1519731950902300673?s=20
This is also the reason why Hitler was appreciative of Islam and many prominent Muslim leader allied with him because of their mutual hatred for Jews.
The point is that similar events have been happening in recent history. Nothing about your sources disproved this, in fact it’s all good info to validate what they’re saying.
I will say that using a Twitter video from the Israel advocacy group to validate your claim about Islamic scripture comes across as very tenuous and hard to take seriously at face value.
It’s very interesting because all the sources you provide for talking about Pakistan all seem very solid.
I found the twitter source to be reliable because the Muslim in the video himself refused to wish Islamic greeting to the Jew.
I did some research and I found this Islamic verse, but it seems, both, the Jew and the Muslim in the video have taken it out of context.
https://sunnah.com/adab:1106
But even then I have seen many antisemitic verses in Islamic scriptures, a quick google search does reveal some verses.

Ok so the quote is to verbally swing back when insulted. So maybe thinking a video of one Muslim (there are more than a million of them globally) is a reliable metric to judge all of Islam isn’t correct?
And your second link has an interesting comment that you might’ve missed.
“Did you post this up in order to put a veil over people's eyes on the atrocities the Israeli government committed few days ago by murdering over 60 innocent Palestinian people and injuring 1000s of protesters?
"Re-Examining Banu Qurayzah Incident"

Safiyyah was freed at Khaybar and married in Khaybar incident too. This had no connection to Banu Qurayza incident:

As for last hour claim, the following is an excellent article which delves into the context around it:

As for Quran 9:29 and other verses, see this please:

Prophet Muhammed’s Charity To Non-Muslims,
(1992) “… that the Messenger of God (p) used to give charity to a household of the Jews, and it continues to be given (that is after his death (p).” (Kitab al-Amwaal by Abu Ubayd al-Qasim Ibn Sallam, page 556)
Prophet Muhammed’s (p) wife, Safiyya gave charity to those who professed another faith (among her family),
(1193) “…that Safiyya, the wife of the Prophet (p) gave charity to two of her relatives, and both were Jews. This (corpus of the) charity was sold for thirty thousand dirhams.” (Kitab al-Amwaal by Abu Ubayd al-Qasim Ibn Sallam, page 556)
Various companions and scholars gave and had given charity to non-Muslims who lived under their protection throughout the earliest days of Islam,
(1994) “…Abd’Allah Ibn Marwan, who said: ‘ I said to Mujahid: ‘ I have a polytheist relative, who owes me a debt. Should I forgo this debt?’ He replied, ‘Yes, and (give something to) strengthen the bonds between relatives.” (Kitab al-Amwaal by Abu Ubayd al-Qasim Ibn Sallam, page 556)”
You know that there is no god, right?
Yes, I’m an agnostic atheist. That’s why I don’t have an issue actually looking into the specifics of different religions to understand them better.
Islam is a piece of shit homophobic misogynistic religion bro.
All Abrahamic religions are. And it’s also not the point being discussed so you’re deflecting.
