They definitely have nothing to hide. Nope, not a single thing.

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.

It's safe to assume that one could graph the atrocities committed by the Israeli military, duplicate it, shift it a day or two down the timeline, and one would get the graph of news articles censored by the Israeli military.
Good ol Democracy.
After reading Talmud, I've concluded that practitioners (at the very least) of the Talmud, operate life by deception.
You might have read the Art of War by mistake. I did the opposite and lost half my army because rubbing lamb blood on them didn't do anything and the other half because they didn't want to cut their enemies's foreskins and make a big pile.
Aware.
You read the Talmud? In the original Aramaic, or a translation?
Translated to English. The only other option was in Hebrew.
Thought the original was Aramaic rather than Hebrew
Would make sense.
Although the Assyrian conquest of Palestine was extremely violent, the general lack of persecution of Jews under Assyrian rule allowed Jews to adopt Aramaic as a vernacular, eventually leading it to supplant Hebrew entirely.
Where is that quote from?
Section 2: The Aramaic Period (c. 722 BCE — 340 BCE) The conquest of Palestine by the Aramaic-speaking Neo-Assyrian Empire marks the beginning of a protracted language shift among Jews in the country from the use of Hebrew to Aramaic as their vernacular. This conquest took place over several decades and began in 722 BCE, solidifying Aramaic-speaking imperial control of Palestine until Alexander’s conquest in 340 BCE. This conquest was extremely violent and featured the deportation of thousands of Palestinian Jews, weakening the Hebrew-speaking community and allowing Aramaic to more easily permeate society. Although the Assyrian conquest of Palestine was extremely violent, the general lack of persecution of Jews under Assyrian rule allowed Jews to adopt Aramaic as a vernacular, eventually leading it to supplant Hebrew entirely. During Aramaic-speaking rule of Palestine, Aramaic became the High language and Hebrew the Low language among Palestinian Jews, pressuring Jews to adopt Aramaic in order to access socioeconomic benefits.
The Talmud is a central part of Judaism and is written in Hebrew and Aramaic. The Talmud is a record of rabbinic discussions about the Torah that took place in Jerusalem and Babylon between the 2nd and 5th centuries CE, with the final record being complete by the 5th century. The Talmud is divided into two versions: the Babylonian Talmud, which is compiled around 500 CE, and the Jerusalem Talmud, which is compiled around 400 CE, but is much shorter.
So which did you read? The Babylonian Talmud, which is incredibly long, or the Jerusalem one?
Babylonian. It's where we get to learn about how the Jews view Mary.. a whore. And Jesus boiling in excrement. And how to treat goyim/gentile.. like slaves. And killing them without consequence. Steal from them. Deceive them. etc.. etc.. Granted different rabbis, different times.. but rabbis are held with high regard. Disrespecting a rabbi, even when he's in the wrong, is like disrespecting God. As if they're held in higher regard than the Prophets. Talmud teaches Jews - its practitioners, loopholes, as if they they can trick or bypass God and what He commands of them.
I know you're trying to find a way to prove I'm full of chit... but the Abrahamic religions and history are two subjects that I don't take lightly.
Mods: This is not anti-semitic. It's just examples directly from the Talmud. Presenting these examples are not ill intended but simply informative. Take it or leave it, it doesn't effect me one bit.
No, no, not trying to be oppositional at all, just interested. Sorry if I made it look the wrong way. I've read parts of the Babylonian Talmud, not the whole thing, and I would agree with your points. Not to mention the parts like those where they act like demons are real things that exist, and prescribe a method for how to see them.
Interestingly, lots of the differences between the new and old testament are also differences between the Torah and the Talmud, eg demons, heaven and hell, interpreting the biblical laws differently (although obviously the new testament takes it much further).
