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.

No fucking shit. But I'm sure all those Palestinians in Gaza are so relieved that Kamala Harris didn't win the 2024 election!
My God we dodged a bullet. First period hits and suddenly we are kidnapping world leaders and trying to invade allies to take them over.
Sigh. Women just aren't built for the pressure, unfortunately.
But she's a neolib! But she's a career prosecutor! But her laugh! womp womp womp
All the idiots who didn't vote for her: "Why aren't you stopping trump?!?!?"
She was the least worst candidate without a doubt. She wasn't a good candidate.
Literal hitler 2.0
Vs
Well, she’s just not a good candidate
We’re fucking cooked.
Sure, but when we say that we have to acknowledge that Trump had zero qualities of an actual candidate.
Well, you know what they say about democracy. It's the best out of all the bad options...
it make sense why she chose the extremely passive tim walz
Misogyny and racism may or may not have been part of why she lost the election. And I'm leaning towards the former.
Both.
White-supremacism AND male-supremacism ( NO macho would DARE vote for a woman leader! NO "biblical relationship" man would tolerate a woman leader. etc. ).
That and Biden fucking-over her campaign by refusing to budge.
Except for her total backing of in-my-opinion-psychopath Netanyahu, I think she might well have been 1 of the US's best presidents.
No matter:
the people who "elected" Harris will, "I'm sure", "prevent" Trump from using the Insurrection Act to enforce his insurrection against the US Constitution.
"just wait: it'll blow-over, & status-quo will re-assert normalcy: we don't have any responsibility to act, we're elected. We have entitlement." or some such thing..
The tippingpoint should be fatally crossed in Feb, by the looks of things, now..
2nd-half of Feb looks to be the end of this world's waltz with pseudodemocracy ( representative-republic ISN'T democracy: it is 1-times removed from that, with the electorate deciding on the citizen's behalf what the country/region/municipality does ).
Prep, if you can: this won't end, once it begins.
It's final.
Regional-consolidation, each region facing only its own wars, ignoring other-regions,
Americas, Europe ( China will supplant Russia, while Putin's playing "Tzar" rampaging Europe ), Asia ( China won't be interfered-with while it's rampaging Asia ), & Middle-East & Africa ( Saudi Arabia, probably, owning that empire )
only once the regions are consolidated will the region-against-region deathmatch get going, in the 2030's.
Just clarifying what people aren't seeing, is all.
Forewarned is forarmed.

PS: I read the beginning of her book, & she seemed sane, intelligent, thinking, & upright.
( I've thousands of books on my to-read list, so having not finished her book makes it .. in the same category as all my other books! : )
most certainly did, but the other is fuckery in the voting machine by musk.
trump got all these leaders in one room,
"leaders" in this case meaning dictators, corrupt sycophants, and puppets?
Any self-respecting leaders sat this one out.
For posterity, could you remind everyone what Kamala's plan was for stopping the genocide and standing up to Israel to protect the Palestinians in Gaza?
For clarity: I missed it because I quickly decided how I was going to vote, so I didn't follow the campaigns all that closely once I had made my decision.
Whatever it was, it would have been magnitudes better than what trump is doing. Biden literally sent a ship to Gaza filled with humanitarian aid, but they left because hamas wouldn't stop lobbing mortars at them.
Of course, some people won't be satisfied with anything less than "from the river to the sea," but honestly I'm not a fan of ethnic cleansings no matter who's doing it. So if the only way to satisfy is to fellate hamas, then I really can't be bothered...
I'm only identifying Hamas's unconscious strategy, in their idiotic attack against Netanyahu's "Israel":
Any Arab state which isn't working towards that annihilation, given the terrorism of the "zionists", .. well, I wouldn't want to be in Arab politics, either way.

Israel holocausted multiple nations, millenia ago.
"17 Rather you must destroy them completely — the Hitti, the Emori, the Kena‘ani, the P’rizi, the Hivi and the Y’vusi — as Adonai your God has ordered you;"
that's from https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Deuteronomy+20%3A17&version=CJB
"The Final Solution"'s FIRST implimentation, ttbomk.
( it was "The Alphabet Versus the Goddess", by Leonard Shlain, which clued me in to this. iirc, he didn't notice that the Inquisitors were also both alphabet-programmed & rabid, in their time )
I'd read that the "zionists" were using Ezekiel 39 to justify their action ( obviously Jeremiah & Isaiah contradict their action ), but can't see anything in it they could readily use..
sigh
https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ezekiel+39&version=AMP
clearer than CJB,
7 months of just burying the enemy..
I think that is what the "zionists" are using to anchor their supremacism-entitlement ideology on.
The problem is that there's a Jewish prophecy ( the root-guru of the Christians, Yesua benJoseph WAS Jewish, he was Essene, not Pharisee, so he's a non-person, contempted, by them, but .. )
"15 “So when you see the abomination that causes devastation spoken about through the prophet Dani’el standing in the Holy Place”[a] (let the reader understand the allusion), 16 “that will be the time for those in Y’hudah to escape to the hills. 17 If someone is on the roof, he must not go down to gather his belongings from his house; 18 if someone is in the field, he must not turn back to get his coat. 19 What a terrible time it will be for pregnant women and nursing mothers! 20 Pray that you will not have to escape in winter or on Shabbat. 21 For there will be trouble then worse than there has ever been from the beginning of the world until now, and there will be nothing like it again![b] 22 Indeed, if the length of this time had not been limited, no one would survive; but for the sake of those who have been chosen, its length will be limited."
& that "trouble then, worse than there has ever been from the beginning of the world until now, and there will be nothing like it again!" bit .. is about to become true, no matter what anybody believes.
So, 6x ( according to Deuteronomy, theres some other book which orders 7 exterminations, can't remember which one, but it might be a book which begins with a "J" ) .. Israel holocausted others,
then 6x others holocausted the nation of Israel ( an author named Eitan Bar identified that, in one of his books ),
& now they're holocausting Palestinians, & according to that part of Matt 24, Israel's getting annihilated at a time .. just like now.
Action->reaction, aka what someone "sows", they "reap", using benJoseph's rendition of the concept "karma".
The REAL problem isn't these "political" meanings:
our collective-unconscious is committed to enacting its toddler-ego myths, with militaries, industries, all technology dystopia can enforce, & even nukes, if required, .. is the REAL problem.
Apocalypse? enforce it.
Genociding for "supremacism"? embody & enact it.
etc.
All for ego-conquests, like ungulates battering heads, for their "authority" on Earth.
the use of the word "behemoth" in their bible seems to be a recognition of humankind's herdbeast-nature, prone to trampling all worth to smithereens, prone to stampeding, the ego-battering, etc..
Brilliant insight, & done back when psychology wasn't a science, too..

PS: I wonder if all the murders there, in the last few millenia, have turned "the Holy Land" into "the Unholy Land"?
Lemme know how trump is gonna treat them asshole.
Do you think that the decision I came to early on was to vote for Trump?
