A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
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.
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 OCTOBER 19 2025
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.

This is something a strong nation that is secure in its moral identity would do
They are a free nation. Free to deport or murder anyone they want to.
The only democracy in the middle east apparently!
*Democracy with Israeli characteristics
Mmmm why don't I believe you
Idk prolly antisemitism 🤷♀️
Ok now I believe you
I just want to point out how to many people, the crimes against the Palestinians aren't legitimate until the story is told by an Israeli. The way Israeli voices are viewed as credible while Palestinian voices are suspicious is one of the most pervasive consequences of the colonial project.
I don't mean to criticize these filmmakers for their identities or imply their project is bad. I'm saying that all of the coverage of this leans heavily on their identities as a mark and sign of authenticity and repute. Compare to the Arab journalists who literally died to bring you this same story.
Yeah: the filmmakers themselves have said this repeatedly as well.
The Israeli Supreme Court ruled in 2022 that the government can revoke an Israeli person’s nationality if they fail to show “loyalty,” including through acts that are found to be treasonous. The interior minister must submit a revocation request to the justice minister and judges must also validate the revocation.
Just apartheid state things.
Where would they send them, gaza?
Pledging allegiance to the flag springs to mind, from two historical examples.
Religious right to the land of Palestine until the Israeli government doesn't consider you Jew enough
Must be painful when Israeli Jews* point out and unveil the atrocities perpetrated by Israel.
Of course they call it treason.
Can't wait to see the film. Classic Streisand effect!
* going by their names
PS: I thought NAZA is a portmanteau of Nazi and Gaza, created by the film makers. Israeli intelligence itself coming up with that name is a self-own imo.
PS
Yes, the name is very unfortunately hilarious. You know 75% of the people seeing the term (like me before I understood what it actually meant) will associated it with "nazi", especially considering the current state of Israeli politics. It's almost too on the nose.
Isn't Israel supposed to be a bastion of freedom and democracy in the Middle East?
It never was
no
Democrats should propose that if the NAZA filmmakers' citizenships are revoked, they would be permitted to come to the US.
With all due respect, Democrats shouldn't be offering safe harbor to exiled dissidents: they should be threatening to sanction Israel if it exiles dissidents.
They should be a doing a lot of other things too, but we need to be much clearer with our demands. These people are Israeli, and deserve protection in their own country. I don't think they want to leave, I think they want their country to change.
AIPAC publicly backs 152 democrats so probably won't happen
I choose to believe that 10 years from now, Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor will be leaders of a free Israel-Palestine, and the people who called for their denaturalization will be dead or living out life sentences for perpetrating atrocities.
I hope Abraham and Szor are careful, though. That future does assume that they survive long enough to reach it.
Either way, there can be no doubt that history will view their journalism and activism with great admiration.
Reminder of the irony of the term:
NAZA is a military acronym derived from the Hebrew term nezek agavi,[4] and is used by the Israeli Defense Force to indicate the number of civilians expected to be killed in an airstrike as collateral damage, also known as Non-combatant casualty value
Ironic that the Israeli government uses a term that many people will confuse with "NAZI".
Could also be a codename for Wernher von Braun
"That's not my department!"
;-)
Kojima strikes again
Israel are the Nazis of the 2020s I hate you Israel as much as I hate Nazi Germany and almost as much as I hate child predators...
I mean, the IDF are essentially child predators at this point so...
Just the 2020s? You should hear some interviews with early IDF members when they were ethnically cleansing Palestine in the 40s and 50s.
These old farts on camera just chuckling to themselves as they retell gunning down civilians that were on their knees.
The entire co concept of Zionist state is based on genocide. Not sure what these people expect when they realize this system for what it is. Every human coming from another country should pack their stuff and leave before it is too late.
They literally want to go Old Testament on people, and we should kind of be above that by now.
so NAZA filmmakers are israelis? lol
There are a lot of progressive Israelis that are fully on board with what us in the West are saying about the genocide.
You don't get to hear them much but there is definitely resistance. Thank god.
if they were against israel, they wouldnt be in israel and be its citizens. Hope this helps
if they were against America, they wouldn't be in America and be its citizens. Hope this helps
False Equivalence Israel is doing active settler colonisation
