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.

He must think they have this all wrapped up if he's not talking about defense anymore. He's sure the world will just let them genocide all their neighbors with US weapons.
Evidence so far is that he's 100% correct. He just needs US troops to take the hits from Iran and he can continue his ethnic cleansing in peace.
That's the whole cause of the current problem. Boomers were supposed to be hyped to send a million kids to die because Iran. It didn't happen like 2002 and the neocon play book only has one idea.
us troops have taking hits for israel for the past 20+ years, ME conflicts were likely instigated by israel.
Shit is about to catch up with Israel. There a reason the aggressive, authoritarian tactics don't last - it's not because it's unethical or evil, it's just bad too.
It won't. There's never any justice.
There's no justice, just us.
And we cant imagine acting outside our existing systems of justice-- even if they are utterly broken. So we wont do anything either. We've been raised and thoroughly conditioned by nonstop cop dramas to be repulsed and deeply uncomfortable with such an idea.
Justice is a game that people who can’t turn off their empathy play.
The world is owned and controlled by billionaires who can simply just turn off their empathy… assuming they had any to begin with…
I personally think we need to do heavy research into DNA markers for sociopathy and psychopathy, and eugenics those disorders out of existence.
That’s the real “final solution”.
pretty sure Iran will be more interested in vengence than justice having killed the President's father, wife and children during peace negotiations
Wouldn’t you?
