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.

Yes unprovoked. The event that was supposed to justify this action (apparently sacrificing a goat somewhere) never happened.
Those savages living in the modern recreation of the Warsaw Ghetto we created for them attacked us! It was completely UnPrOvOkEd!
If this has been an attack launched by West Bank Palestinians you'd have an argument. But this is coming from the Gaza strip. The strip has the 1967 peace borders, no settlements and self rule. In the mid 2000s every Jew was evicted from the strip, every settlement emptied in a model for what peace and a 2 state solution was suppose to look like for the region.
Would you like to look back in time a little or just keep on pretending you k ow what you are talking about.
This did not happen in a vacuum, israel has been stealing more and more land every year, killing children, and killing journalists.
Shit now they're talking about shrinking gaza again.
Multiple agencies warned Israel something was going to happen, they ignored it and now they get to take even more land.
They didn't call it the "Shit that happened in the 1940s Flood".
Wasn't the attack in internationally recognized Palestinian territory? The fact the attack is considered to be in Israel at all is provocation of some sort. Now, you may argue it wasn't justified, but it surely was provoked.
No, they crossed the internationally recognized 1967 borders (which are in effect on the Gaza Strip) to commit this attack. Israel (specifically Israeli's left wing coalition) pulled all of its settlers and settlements out of Gaza in 2004,5 and established the 1967 borders to try to demonstrate that pulling back to the '67 borders would lead to peace and would be worth it to do so to establish a Palestinian state.
