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.

Ah yes, classic Zionist rhetoric
He stopped taking naked aipac money and is now taking it from a superpac that hides it.
Specific names and amounts?
All you're going to get is links that mean nothing and a promise to provide evidence later.
OP is a liar and IDK why you're bothering to engage.
Unless someone has really caught my attention I usually don’t pay attention to or remember usernames tbh
Op has a life with other things to do than argue with infantile minds who can do an iota of critical thinking or reading. Ftfy
Can't* ftfy

This is one. superpac that hides... I'll look later, if .world mods haven't removed it.
You’ve shown they have a page for other people to donate money to him, not the PAC itself, and not how much he’s received. I’ll wait for actual evidence.
You are disingenuous. A Zionist org support Khanna. Why?
Go ask them. Maybe they can also give you those numbers you swore you were looking up.
He's a Zionist. His own words. Now it's election time. It's not just that you want to support your abusers. It's that you want everyone who would leave them to stay.
This conversation is done if you’re done pretending you’re going to engage with facts or substantiate anything you say 👋
How dare I have things to do.
Yes, classic liberal Zionist rhetoric.
He's towing the party line, and the Democratic Party is very much a Zionist organisation. He doesn't like the optics of the genocide, blames the current regime and complains about the lost support of the younger generation and that a foreign prime minister sits in the holy US-American situation room, as only US-American presidents decide which war crimes (in the name of the USA) are to be made. He what's to reduce open pro Israel spending, as he's advocating America First ideology.
He's supporting the Zionist project. Stop coping.
Let them praise him. He doesn't have to be an antizionist. He's a symbol of antizionism here. That's whats being praised.
Like, I have my criticisms of the "two state - right to exist" Liberals. But, what did you expect progress to look like comrade? The same Liberals that spent years talking about October 7th in every sentence and "right to defend itself". Those liberals are being forced to acknowledge the crimes of Israel. This is a win. You're making those that advocate for Palestinians look unreasonable and irrational.
I understand being upset at these libs. I understand why you still call him a Zionist. But, my friend, please, we have a long way to go still; criticizing a Congressman felt a fraction of a fraction of the oppression Palestinians feel every day in the West Bank. It's not productive in this context. There are plenty of context to criticize him. The libs see this and dislike Israel. Just let that be the discussion.
Apartheid South Africa ended when the liberals of the West were finally forced by activist and leftist into performative things just like this. This is a good sign. Let it happen.
The liberals praising anything against Israel is good. We're gonna have to cringe and bite our tongue when they treat Congressman as heroic for this. They are treating action against Israel as a positive. They are treating West Bank settlers as enemies. That's amazing. Remember where we came from just three years ago; and where we are today. They'll understand your current criticism one day. But this is not the context in which to educate them.
We could use more ‘Zionists’ that denounce genocide, apartheid, and go to Palestine to draw attention to the issue 🤷♂️ I’m not impressed by you trotting out the party position and blaming it on him personally, especially when he’s specifically calling out his own party in the article I guess you didn’t read. What has he said and done that’s Zionist?
This is why people don't leave their abusers. They keep listening to what they say, instead of watching what they do.
