Alternate source since I’ve never heard of The Cradle” and have no idea if it is credible or not.

[–] Linkerbaan@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

The Cradle is great when is comes to news on Palestine and the Middle East.

They also use a lot of Arab sources which Western newspapers don't like to do because they only quote israel.

Dont ask MBFC about TheCradle though. It's not israel friendly enough.

Speaking of MBFC... Did the bot finally disappear since it didn't invite itself into this thread?

[–] Linkerbaan@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

No this is lemmy.ml which is more based.

The annoying MBFC bot only runs on lemmy.world news communities.

So that was the catch

I know there's drama between the various lemmy instances and ml is supposed to be commies bad, but I find this place quite welcoming.

What does it matter? The war in Ukraine has shown that nobody actually cares.

What does this mean?

[+] Killer57@lemmy.ca -11 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (2 children)

The point I'm trying to make is that Russia has been bombing hospitals, schools and dams for over two years now and no one bats an eye, Ukrainians are even caucasian so you can't pull the brown people matter less card. Genocide is the attempted goal for both Russia and *Isreal

[–] sunzu@kbin.run 13 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Iran and genocide? What are you talking about?

EDIT: that's a hellva typo bro... one word turned the entire post. i think we can agree with the corrected version though.

[–] Killer57@lemmy.ca -3 points 4 months ago

I agree, big typo, I was high when I wrote it. But I'm still sticking by the corrected version.

[–] coolusername@lemmy.ml 2 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

this isn't true. russia has never targeted civilians like Israel does (e.g., every hospital attack, aid truck massacre, this recent school bombing, etc). Ukraine blames their own air defense missiles hitting civilian buildings on Russia. They also hide soldiers in abandoned schools, tanks and APCs in farm silos and semi trucks, etc. I've seen at least dozens of photos taken from the Ukranian side where they hide in civilian infrastructure. Do NOT get your info from any US or US-aligned media. It's literally ALL controlled by the CIA.

In fact, Ukraine actively creates atrocity propaganda complete with film crews and actors, I've also seen behind-the-scenes pictures from TWO events staged by Ukraine.

The worst actual atrocity I've seen from Russia is them bombing a diner where many NATO staff were. For sure there were civilians in there.

Don't bullshit me.

I wouldn’t confuse people being unable to do anything about it with them not caring. I think both “wars” are absolute tragedies and if I was a superhero I’d zip over there and sort them out. But I’m just a normal guy, what can I do except talk about it?

[–] coolusername@lemmy.ml 15 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

I recommend everyone look at the uncensored pictures and videos of the aftermath to understand how tragic of an event this was. Even worse Israel just made up biographies of select people that they slaughtered there saying that they're terrorists (refuted by people who knew them). It's SO FUCKED UP.

Here is the refutation towards the israeli made up biographies : https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1822333134978916826.html
