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.

Are you claiming that the theocracy in Iran is good?
he supports the status quo while claiming to be anti-imperial.
Are you claiming that the indigenous government of Iran is imperialist?
Are you putting words in my mouth as a red herring?
Do you not understand what a question is?
Did you stop beating your mother?
Okay, you're just an idiot. Forget I asked.
If this was reddit they would get your account violated by reporting you to reddit a thousand times on different posts until one stuck. Or just sending your name to be violated for other reasons.
This is blatant in our faces manipulation for more war with iran so israel can keep the forever war going and not have elections or have the leadership have to admit they made a mistake or as the case may be for them to definitively blame everyone else for it.
Idk why they would allow the failure to stay in to address the fallout from the failure though, that must be from the stacking of their government for 20 years with their appointees and their concentration of and deals with media.
'Every accusation is a confession'
Fits for tankies too.
They don't care anymore. Look at the bases, positioning, $$$$$, firepower, people unwilling to go AWOL, lose a day of work, etc.
More than that, they probably consider the attack the best thing that happened to them, gave them an excuse to do the things they've long wanted in an environment where the mask is off, and the rot in western institutions is so thorough, nothing is too much for the west, not wars against 4 countries under false pretense and an ongoing ghetto reprisal for 2 years targeting civilians and a ragtag militia with small arms fighting the most advanced army in the world.
The democrats didn't even try to hide it either, past presidents put the breaks on Israel, no more.
The inside attack
It happens on .world often enough, by now I guess I'm probably allowed to have posts stay bc [redacted] (they serve a different purpose).
