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.

Netanyahu literally cannot pull his troops back. Any peace time for Israel means autopsies on the conflict and the whole Israeli government getting charged for war crimes. Governments understand this and it's going to be Western governments stepping aside and withdrawing their money to allow Israel to get flattened by the regional powers. I don't like the Israeli government, and there certainly are a lot of supporters in the region (probably over 50%), but we're probably about to see a whole bunch of innocent Israel citizens being vaporized as well.
I think you have an oversized confidence in our international justice system. When the good guys commit genocide or war crimes, no one goes to the Hague. Cases in point: Indonesia (twice over), Guatemala, the war on "terror".
Maybe they shouldn't have been openly celebrating in the streets when they were bombing Gaza.
What goes around comes around.
They have government-sponsored observation decks where you can watch Gaza through fixed telescopes while passing a blunt and cheer as bombs drop.
It's really a mystery that nobody likes them, huh.
These monsters are addicted to killing like a crack addict. Zionism is a death cult.
Charged by whom? Israeli courts? Yea right.
It's not even that complicated. If he lets Israel off a war footing, he's in front of the corruption court that he's attempted to subvert multiple times.
If Israel ever charges anyone over the actual war crimes, I'll eat a bug.
Not sure if I understand what you're trying to say. My read of this MOU is that the US is pulling the plug. Israel is already overextended in Lebanon, and they for sure can not fight Iran without the backing of the USA.
And even if they had that backing, interceptors are depleted and radars destroyed. Dimona got hit with a nuclear-capable rocket loaded with sand, a clear message which they know how to interpret. They'll keep testing the waters with Trump for a bit, but the US will clarify to them that they really aren't bluffing with this MOU.
Israel has no right to be butthurt that they didn't get a seat at the negotiating table. They're a proxy, not a partner. They are living way beyond their means and that's coming to an end. Their bluff has been called. Now they need to stfu and do as they are told.
There are no innocent Israeli scum. They are all guilty of the rape and genocide of real Semites (Palestinians).
Israel can have its peace when every last motherfucking zionist is all dead.
Do you think making pro-genocide statements actually helps anyone?
