META Should we put a hiatus on Israel/Palestine content?

659 Upvotes

This stuff appears daily, usually posted and voted on in violation of rule 1 and 2:

1) Don't vote on whether you agree with the message of a post.

2) Don't post with the intent to spread propaganda you agree with or the intent to degrade propaganda you disagree with.

Current events are prohibited but we all know much of the content is posted against the spirit of rule 4:

4) No current events. To help us to be objective, posts cannot be from within the last two years.

And these posts often feel like bait to provoke comment threads that violate rule 6:

6) Civil conversation is okay; soapboxing, bigotry, partisan bickering, and personal attacks are not.


Some options:

a) Put a temporary hiatus on these posts for a couple months or until conflict settles.

b) Limit Israel/Palestine content to 1 day a week.

c) History repeats itself. Let it ride.

d) Other suggestions?

What are your thoughts?

Edit: e) Allow the posts but lock the threads
