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.

I didn't know the Henry Jackson Society mentioned in this article. By doing a quick search I found this article, and it looks like it is funded by Zionists.
Islamophobia sponsored by Zionist think tanks
If you have ~~info~~ links contradicting it, please share.
Edit: the strikethrough
I don't care what the Iranian Government says.
You can google it from any other source, phony.
Maybe you can check your sources before promoting fascists?
Zios gonna fash tho.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Jackson_Society
Lol, I mean, the link you provided... to wikipedia... says they've been 'accused' of being right-wing or non-partisan so I guess take your pick who to believe? Their mission statement seems pretty respectable to me.
Oh no, hamas allegedly added a thousand children to the thousands already dead. Better blow up more children!
And PressTV is an Iranian state media. Of course they are anti Israel.
2022: The Council of the European Union places the channel on the list of Iranian persons and entities sanctioned for serious human rights violations. It is declared “responsible for the production and dissemination of forced confessions of detainees”. https://fr.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Press_TV
Ok, I hear you about Press TV.
If you have links contradicting the content of the article itself, please share.
Note: About links from wiki on this topic I am skeptical after seeing the following video. So other sources are welcome.
Course: Zionist Editing on Wikipedia - Israel National News
You can google this info anywhere, creep.
If you come into my neighborhood and kill 50% of people and move in it's "Terrorism" to remove you because other white people said so.
It's only Terrorism because Hamas will lose and history is written by the winners.
Who are the white people you're referring to? Because neither Israelis nor Jews are mostly white?
Also Jews are equally native to the Land of today's Israel/Palestine as Palestinians.
If you're "settling" a land you cannot be a native. That's like saying Americans are natives.
Also I'm referring to the EU and US aka the other whites that matter in this conflict since they're the only ones that have the power to
There's a difference between the current state of Israel and Palestine and Israels illegal settlings on Palestinian land versus the historical fact, that Arabs and Jews are both native to the broader region of Levant.
Americans, Germans, French, and the other EU nations that onesidedly label Hamas as terrorists, but not the Israel administration. Have you been burying your head in the sand all this while or you're just pretending to?
It's no contradiction to label Hamas terrorists while not doing the same for Israel. Hamas are terrorists and that's not "onesidedly"!
I love how you decided to ignore my actual rebuttal to your argument and answered an unrelated point. It shows that you never had a good faith argument to make in the first place. I bet you have no problem with Israel's genocide despite all the noise you're making about terrorism.
