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.

Honestly, does anyone feel sorrow for the Zionists here?
Straight up genocide and mass murder for fun….you gave up the victim card and took one of the SS patches instead.
Please don't call them Jews. They are Zionists and have nothing to do with Judaism.
Edited and noted. There are extremes to every religion I suppose, I live in Utah but would hate to be called a Mormon
How do you refer to Israelis who oppose the current regime?
Anti Zionists most likely, but depends on why they protest their government. Some super right wingers are protesting for their government to kill more Palestinians.
Israel is secular. Though like America it operates under an extremely warped version of a religion and uses it as a mantle for its crimes.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
What’s worse is there was a pretty good example of what not to do from one of Israel’s “best friends” who even warned them “oh my good remember that time we did that thing? Don’t”
Then here they are. Doing the thing. Worse it seems.
It’s as if Israel is doing their best to justify what happened on October 6th
Not really. They've always (for more than 100 years) been like this. This nonsense didn't start now.
I feel a bit complicated on their early history, kibutzes being a little too close to communalism in some details and Mossad being pulp fiction international spies hunting nazis (or how media makes them look). I'm a tad bit too impressionable, right. But this gazan fuckery is an idiotic feedback loop – the current power holders from Israel can't stop killing people because the threat of Hamas is the very reason they are in power, so they would only continue to up these stakes to keep themselves in power until someone stops them. There's no way it can be resolved without bloodthirsty idiots in Israel being put aside, because they'd continue to actualize themselves with more violence. And although I don't really support external parties meddling in other nation's politics, the only way I can see it solved is UN peacemakers on the ground making IDF's killing spree too problematic to continue. I imagine there'd be more than deep concerns if their snipers would kill a EU citizen by mistake and not some palestinian. It's depressing that I can't think of other ways to solve it without foreign soldiers acting like literal hostages.
When it all started, I thought Gaza was a place ridden by poverty because I didn't know much about it, but looking at old photoes of it I see a pretty european city not unlike those I visited. Although Israeli policies did a lot of harm to it, it looked like a place to visit or even live in. High rise buildings, cafes, barber shops, malls. All of them leveled by artillery fire. And I'm surprised that IDF can just do that and have no repercussions. If, like, Britain would bruise Paris like that, there won't be any end to criticizing it. But there's it's told like it's another monday. And that's probably the most frightening about all that war, that it's so routinely done and only the minority of politicians call them out for that. I hate that world.
The food was Hamas all along!
Again?!
There's a non-graphic video in the article showing the events for those curious.
The worst piece of shit of humans are Zionists.
The most moral army in the world /s
