What is global news?
Something that happened or was uncovered recently anywhere in the world. It doesn't have to have global implications. Just has to be informative in some way.
Post guidelines
Title format
Post title should mirror the news source title. If you don't like the title of article, look for an alternative source instead of editorializing it.
URL format
Post URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
[Opinion] prefix
Opinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title. Opinion articles refer to articles that their publisher doesn't explictly endorse.
Country prefix
Country prefix can be added to the title with a separator (|, :, etc.) if the news is from a local publisher who doesn't clearly mention the country.

It's funny how Argentina is seen as full of Nazis while North America gets off the hook
I have regularly accused the US here of being full of Nazis for decades actually. If anything I think the US gets a rap for being more fascist, as they should because they are, or were, idk with millei there, whom is Netanyahoo's cousin by the way.
And it's well known we poached their rocket and other scientists.
I've always known that the CIA was shady at best but at at this point its quite clear that the CIA is just one of the earliest (and likelynmost successful) international criminal terrorist organizations in the world
They literally did everything god and your conscience have forbidden. Murders and assassinations of random people that were no threat? Check. Drug smuggling? Check. Protection of international international criminals? Check. Training of terrorists? Check. Over throwing legitimate Democratic governments? Check. The list goes on and on.
I think it really should be designated as an international terrorist organization
Now do USA
Tankies must really be desperate if they post a story that happened half a century ago in another attempt to make Canada look bad. OP is also posting ‘news’ from Chinese state media and other propaganda outlets, but apparently not even there are relevant posts today.
And? I know this paper but don't know what you want to say by posting this link.
The article is from read the maple, its been linked through archive.is to remove paywals. Its not Chinese state media.
This is not relevant, it has nothing to do with my comment above.
America was on the Nazis side right until the Japanese decided to attack them. Had that not happened, America would have either continued selling weapons to both sides, or would have joined the Nazis outright.
They're not the fucking good guys and never have been.
Erm when did the US give the Axis Powers Weapons?
The history is a little more complex than giving weapons, but US-owned companies manufactured equipment for the Nazis. "The business of America is business" rings true.
"American managers of both GM and Ford went along with the conversion of their German plants to military production at a time when U.S. government documents show they were still resisting calls by the Roosevelt administration to step up military production in their plants at home."
During the war, US bombing plans avoided American-owned factories. When they couldn't, they compensated the companies for the losses inflicted.
Again, it's complex, and fascinating in many regards, but the business interests that drive the US government were also building the Nazi war machine.
Actually, FDR hated the nazis even before Japan bombed pearl habor. The rest of America was simply apathetic since it was a ocean away
