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.

Obviously Israel talked him into the war and told him to deny it.
Worse.
They talked him into a war and it's obvious to everyone except trump and maybe Joe Biden.
I think they both legitimately still see Israel as "the good guys", because their brains are mush.
Also they have all the hard copies of the Epstine files and he's just dancing for them to keep them hidden.
They do, but that's not it.
He's letting Kushner handle everything with Israel, it all flows thru him like Cheney had everything run thru him with GW.
Kushner is a zionist, he wants what Bibi wants.
So instead of America negotiating with Israel, Bibi tells Kushner what he wants, and Kushner frames it as the best and only option to trump, usually with Ivanka greasing the wheels.
Just like Cheney told GW the Irag war was the only possible option, Kushner says anything Bibi wants is the only possible option.
I legitimately wouldn't be surprised to find out they've been diverting food from US naval ships to send to Israel at this point.
Good and evil don't play into it, they believe in nothing, only self-interest.
The fuck you think "evil" is?
Edit to clarify:
"Evil" like exists in media isn't real, it's propaganda from the people in power to convince you they're the good guys and they overcame "evil" so we're better off with them than without.
It's an excuse to give them too much power. And it's such a good excuse that people in power will manufacture terrible situations to just that "evil" is a natural phenomona on a large scale. And they're never put good effort into any type of peace. They want/need perpetual lie to keep people scared enough they'd turn over all their own wealth and actual security.
That's the most evil shit in the real weird, and there's so much of it we don't need to worry about boogeymen.
