World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
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. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating 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 10/19
-
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.

What's your explanation for Israel funding the terrorists' displacement of the secular moderates with predictable, deadly results?
What - you think Netanyahu cares about Israelis given his refusal of ceasefire after ceasefire and hostage exchange after hostage exchange? How quaint.
Seems straightforwardly clear that it was to manufacture the pretext for the current genocide.
Thats quite the "theory". Also I am still failing to see the motivation? "just kill some muslims" and sacrifice some of our own for that?
For the third time - why did Israel fund Hamas' displacement of the secular moderates with predictable results?
Kill the Palestinians, take their land - you know - exactly what they've been doing for decades, and were able to dramatically accelerate after October 7th.
Ah okay, Israel just wants more land... that is why they sacrifice their own people and kill "innocents". Sorry but no, I rather see the truth in it. And seemingly the world is also moving towards that. Lets see what Trump will do in that regard. :)
Why did Netanyahu sacrifice Israelis to refuse multiple ceasefires and hostage exchanges?
...but more relevantly, for the 4th time, you genocide defending piece of shit, why did Israel fund Hamas' displacement of the secular moderates with predictable results?
There's a reason you're refusing to answer the question - it's perfectly clear that Netanyahu is willing to sacrifice Israeli lives if it means that he can kill more Palestinians. You keep stating the obvious in an incredulous tone because you don't have an alternative explanation - there isn't one. You tell us you see the truth, then get all shy about it.
Go cheer for more dead Israelis, ya antisemitic piece of shit.
Wow, that went dogshit pretty fast. Sorry to see that as soon as someone tries to reach deeper into your argument you go full illuminati. So yea Netanyahu is killing his own people so he can kill more palestinians, check. And I am all of a sudden also antisemitic, check. I think I take my leave... ^^
Thanks for playing, Rudolph Jitler, but no prizes for a performance like that.
