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.

They were likely paid to do this too (then a free military flight home)..Netanyohooo even said he was going to deploy troops to go get the fans. I hope all these countries hold their leaders accountable, because it's going to happen again and again.
Edit: It was the military who said it
Legitimately, I've been feeling like I'm just a jaded cynic because my first thought after seeing the videos was "yeah, 100% they got paid or encouraged to do this by someone in the IDF/Government/mossad in order to continue the victim narrative they love to play nowadays"
Like.... Maybe I'm just a shitty person, but it feels like the government of Israel really wants the world to equate the government with the people, and the country with all jews everywhere. So if you criticize one, you clearly must hate ALL of them, and therefore you are no better than a nazi in WW2.
That's by design.
What do kids do when they have a fit and are rewarded with candy? They throw more fits. They 100% know it's not antisemitism, theyre checking how far they can push their US backed military invasions. US taxpayers funds pay for most of it, so why not.
That's an odd statement. Like... get their troops marching on a foreign country to defend their hooligans and extract them back home? If not, then what?
Odd. Really odd.
No, the plan was to send military evacuation flights. I think it ended up not happening in the end.
"No!"....
See my comment here
Yeah, Netanyihoo is odd, and this should have caused much more outrage than it did. But "antisemitism".
