In July of 2014, during the height of Operation Protective Edge, the Israeli military launched a mid-day strike on one of the most popular beaches in the Gaza Strip. On the beach that day were many of the children of the Bakr family, killing four boys. But their family members live on, scarred from the attack, and they're not alone: UNICEF has estimated that at least 425,000 Palestinian children in the besieged Gaza Strip require “immediate psychosocial and child protection support.”

Drop Site News's Jeremy Scahill asks Ro Khanna whether Palestinians have a right to self-defense like Israel. Khanna says Israel had the right to bomb Gaza to get at Hamas, but thinks Palestinians should emulate Gandhi & practice non-violence. Scahill calls him out for the double-standard.

This, of course, just part of the story. And not the end either.

Every small species counts.

Ruben Gallego, Warren, Sanders, Mandami..There is not word you can say now for endorsing Platner. It captures who you are. Shameful. Shame on everyone for voting for these candidates. Who is going to be overlooked next? Everyone needs to wake up and not vote for these people again.

House Dem Leader Hakeem Jeffries will vote AGAINST stripping $3.3 billion in annual US military aid to apartheid Israel, writing that US commitment to Israel "must remain ironclad." Despite a recent poll stating 74% of Democrats oppose funding Israel, Jeffries instead cited J Street.

Articles from the NYT are preferred. Anything roughly political is also fine.

Politics is increasingly angry, so many places go overboard with moderation. We won't do that here. People have asked why:

The subreddit would be dead otherwise. Desire paths are a better use of land than scenic grass.
People who read the NYT and want to discuss it really want to just discuss politics.
The sanitization of viewpoints for the sake of decorum prevents honest conversation.

It's okay if you don't like it here. Just leave. More polite subs include /r/neutralnews or /r/politicaldiscussion.

If the default mod action is, "approve," you may ask what is moderated? Annoying people or overt spam.

If you're rude, but make a point, it's fine. If it devolves to just name calling, that's annoying. Calling people bootlickers, nazis or bots is very annoying.
