Absolutely. War is “a state of armed conflict between different countries or different groups within a country”. It’s an armed conflict between Israel and Palestine indeed. You can give it other bigger names too but it certainly fulfills the definition of a war as well

I would love to but it’s explicitly forbidden by the Rule 1 of this community

Came here after my niche small Reddit client got officially shut down. When the API changes were announced, I knew that I’d rather switch than use their official Reddit client. I didn’t like that they charge AI companies for accessing my data and I don’t get any share of their profit neither. Here on Lemmy everyone can train their AI models on our data but at least there’s no random dude (spez) who profits off that.

The decentralization meaning that I can choose some random small instance and not be bound to the admins of any big one was another big point for Lemmy

Sometimes he’s mentioned in the daily conversations once he says something controversial or big. But the real base of supporters is in the churches; they do repeat what he said once a month or so and pray together for it to turn into reality

You just don’t get a visa if you don’t have 250 bucks. Actually, you need a proof of funds to apply for the visa anyways

You are talking about the Minsister of Foreign affairs, not the PM. And the exact quote is “We [Polish government] need to stop giving head to USA”

The headline is misleading.

1. It’s a refundable deposit
2. It’s not for all travelers but only for those on non-immigrant visas. Most notably, does not apply for ESTA travelers

You probably meant “the Art of the Deal”

You’ve said that “They could [do X], if it ends the conflict with China and prevents war”. While they aren’t the ones to fuel the conflict with China and it’s China who can prevent the war. Taiwan doesn’t want to go to war with China, so implying that they could do something to end the conflict which is one-sided is blaming them for China’s imperialistic ambitions

Blaming Taiwan for not fixing the “conflict”

Oh, there’s no need for that, I got my comment removed at worldnews@lemmy.ml (why is this always ml, hmmm) after saying that Taiwan is a good functioning democracy and that they like their freedoms, so maybe China shouldn’t invade 😀

Yep. I just don’t think victim-blaming is a right thing to say in this case; it’s not Taiwan threatening China but China threatening Taiwan

China also could just stop threatening Taiwan with invasion, that would also end the conflict with China and prevent war

I’ve been to Spain and can confirm they speak Mexican there

Damn, can’t believe I’d ever say this but please don’t die within the next 3 years, Donald

If he actually dies, would JD Vance replace him? Actually, maybe then Trump’s not that bad then…

Don’t worry, now teens have TikTok which they can source their information from, so we should be safe

There are different levels of poverty. Poverty in Somalia and poverty in Scandinavia or Western Europe are two different levels of poverty that do not compare

If it did, it would turn half of the time into a two-nights train
