I get my news from a wide variety of sources on the internet and various different news channels.
This doesn’t fulfill my request, so I am going to assume you just don’t have anything. Seriously, why can’t you just provide a single link? Do you really think that this is a very convincing argument? I would really like to know who’s saying they aren’t committing a genocide because they aren’t living in the same reality as the rest of the world.

Just follow AP news if you want actual journalist. Unbiased, do their own leg work, and are verifiable. if you get your news from 20 different "inquirers", you will never be unbiased.

I would also keep in mind, a people and their government are different things. Supporting a people does not mean you have to support their government. As a general rule of thumb, it'll be governments destroying the lives of the citizens, not one people against another.

it doesn't care about being unbiased, it only wants to see its disgusting worldview confirmed to run away from reality.

Yeah, you should post some of them.

Daily Mail, Daily Express, the Sun, Newsmax, Breitbart.. I'm sure these are part of the "many sources" - hilarious if you think they are all headed by one guy
Honestly, probably just headlines on social media ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Great recommendation and I'd also like to throw in DW. German news site that also reports on global events and their balance and quality has always impressed me.

Did any of you mention sources like aljazeera? Their journalists got blown up in a van by the Israeli forces and soon after the BBC journalists got attacked elsewhere (I might have confused the two events before). Not the first and last time Israel blows something up by accident. It didn't look like an accident. They fired a rocket straight at the van which was clearly marked and they announced themselves up front. It might seem biased to many people because they are Arabs running it, but they seem to be actually mostly neutral and let also jews speak for themselves and don't seem to censor what people say, but they do focus on coverage of the Gaza.

While Al Jazeera is a reputable source of news, the fact that they're specifically run by people who are Islamic creates the image that they are potentially biased in this specific situation. They're really in a no-win situation here, because no matter how unbiased their reporting is, they'll never be taken for face value.

Its true. Israel violated human rights, and its very sad that people are praising them. Did they get their information from Twitter as a so-called 'reliable source'?

Are you sure we violated human rights....?

Patently so. Collective punishment is also a war crime innit? As is rape.

Having said that, Hamas is at fault and they need to be stopped. One would hope that this could be achieved without war crimes.

BBC is nothing more than a left wing propoganda run forced state media arm, Al Jazeera are anti Jewish and are always pushing anti-jewish news.

I don't care about your requests and I don't care what you assume. You're a big boy now so put your big boy pants on and do your own research. You might be used to people around you pandering to you based on your perceived victimhood mentality, but you'll get no pandering from me. It's time for you to man up a bit and act like an adult and find your own unbiased internet news.

People get paid for acting like clowns, yet here you are doing it all for free.

You claim to have a multitude of sources, yet when requested to link even just one, you fail to oblige? This shows that the confidence you have in your own sources is very low. People do their own research, and that's how they find out about the multitude of crimes Isntreal has and currently is committing. Any source I try to find in favor of Isntreal always has lies in their own posts and/or blatant misleading information.

Anyone who is embarrassed by their "sources" to the extent that they aren't willing to admit what they are is beyond any point of redemption. Mr. Douche is ruled by his emotions and nothing more.

I listened to their broadcast more than month ago, they let jews speak there, have a jew from israel speak there as well, there was no anti-semitic atmosphere at all you fucking creep.

Fucking get a clue.

Isntreal? That reminds me of this showelware german addon called "Not Real" for the 1998 Unreal.

Maybe someone should make an edit of that picture to say "Isnt Real"

    the legal drinking age here in the US is 21, as some of you may know, but i think either it should be 18 or the age you're an adult should be 21.
    +1
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and i know what you may be thinking, "why become an adult at 21? doesn't that mean that banging an 18 year old would be illegal?"
    first of all, being in a relationship with someone who's 18 is technically ok, as long as it started when they were 18, but the age gap is still weird depending on how old you are. besides, the age of consent differs between different states
    +1
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    also my reasoning for adult age being 21 is because the reason that's the drinking (and now smoking) age is because it "gives them more time to think rationally and not drive drunk"
    so you should have that extra time to mature and think rationally before going to serve in the military or vote

  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    tl;dr the "adult" age and the legal drinking age (and voting age) here in the US should be the same

    What about making kids wait till 18 or 21 to drive? And yea is messed up, you can join army and die for your country at age 18, but you can't drink alcohol or smoke a cig til 21, is ridiculous

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    If someone is in the military they should be allowed to smoke and drink at 18.... Would help drive recruitment lol

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    We all know they do and will anyways. I think laws prevented them only pushes them to illegally do it. Even tho if was legal, most prob wouldn't even bother. Not a big deal or risque if its legal, no fun.

    also, i think the voting age should match the adult and drinking ages too, because by the logic of giving them time to mature and think rationally so they don't drive drunk, then they should also have that time to mature and think rationally so they can think for themselves
