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.
-
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 OCTOBER 19 2025
-
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.

Bullshit, there is a lot of reluctance towards Israel in EU, and many countries are actively taking political actions against Israel now.
You are confusing EU with UK where this actually happened.
Are they now? What political actions are those? "We are concerned" sort of? The only actions AFAIK worth mentioning are joining the SA legal case against genocide and some countries are not exporting/buying weapons to Israel. Besides that we (EU) are happily having Israel as our greatest friend, notably Germany even actively enabling them. Even worse, just elected far right populist prime minister in Slovenia is really drooling when it comes to Netanyahu and Israel in general.
Stop being an idiot!!
These are official EU policies with regard to Israel:
https://www.consilium.europa.eu/en/press/press-releases/2026/05/28/extremist-israeli-settlers-eu-lists-four-entities-and-three-individuals/
EU is criminalizing the settlers and essentially labeling them as terrorists.
https://www.consilium.europa.eu/en/policies/eu-position-situation-middle-east/
EU basically telling Israel and USA that the war against Iran is illegal.
Arms embargo against Israel:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arms_embargoes_on_Israel_since_2023
That is Italy, Spain, Netherlands and Belgium have all stopped selling weapons to Israel.
More countries are also taking similar actions.
Denmark has even stopped selling F35 parts to USA, because USA is reselling them to Israel.
I cannot write hare all the actions that have been taken against Israel by EU countries, but there are numerous actions taken, that show a clear cooling in the relation between European countries and Israel.
You are worse then an idiot. The end of sale of weapons to israel is also a lie. The funding and approval of settlements is done by the state . The settler terrorist crimes are protected by the state so the state should be sanctionned Reports showed israel record sale of genocide tested weapons to the west.
