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.

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.
-
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.

Hell is full of people that deserve it, war is mostly innocent people. Not exactly the correct quote from M*a*s*h but close enough.

I totally get it.
Where the pro lifers at?
They don't care after they are born. Bootstraps and all I guess.
My son was in NICU. I thought of his time in hospital as soon as the news about the Palestinian hospital broke. This is terrible.
A real time genocide is going on!
"Decomposing babies"
Can we just disband Israel already...
Who cares? They've already been born!
-Pro Life Republicans who support Israel.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
A blurred version of the video was shared widely on social media this week, a grim and graphic contrast to other scenes of families reunited as hostages and prisoners were freed.
In a piece he reported, Mohammed Baalousha, a journalist with the Emirati TV channel Al-Mashhad, said he found the decomposing infants when he entered the pediatric ICU in the health facility in Gaza City.
UNICEF also warned in early November that “children in Gaza are hanging by a thread, particularly in the north,” and that Al-Nasr Hospital had reportedly sustained damage in an attack that impacted lifesaving equipment.
Doctors at Al Shifa, one of Gaza’s largest hospitals, which faced intense bombardment and raids by Israeli forces last month, struggled to keep dozens of premature babies alive due to power outages.
Both health officials said they notified the International Committee of the Red Cross to help with the patients left behind in the evacuation process but said that the ICRC has been unable to commit to working in such conditions since the beginning of the war.
“This is more evident when taking into account that the IDF assisted in moving newborns from the pediatric ward of the Shifa hospital to safety, as well as provide Israeli incubators in the process,” the statement added.
The original article contains 1,405 words, the summary contains 213 words. Saved 85%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
What happened to the IDF coming in and supposedly save all the kids? They couldn't even do their own propaganda op and just left all the babies to die? The israelis are true monsters.
Before someone tries to make the claim, no, the hospital staff couldn't have taken the babies with them. These were premature babies in oxygen-saturated powered incubators, which could not be moved.
Possibly if a fully set up ambulance was available for each baby, it could be done, but the IDF has been bombing ambulances too and there aren't that many available anyways.
This, and other similar cases, are exactly why civilized countries don't bomb hospitals.
There are many people who are highly immobile in hospitals.
I have no respect for Hamas, but the IDF is at least as bad. They only try to pretend they are civilized.
They always claim Hamas uses hospitals to perform attacks, but their evidence is even less convincing than the WMD evidence Bush used to justify the Iraq invasion.
