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.

Discrediting death tolls is a type of genocide denial, there are certainly much more dead than has not been accounted for yet, due to the ongoing genocide
Sure, I bet the number is accurate. Putting the blame solely on the IDF is straight up propaganda.
Remember when Hamas shot that hospital with a rocket and blamed the IDF? They've proven themselves willing to lie.
You mean the Al Ahli Hospital? The one instance where it is still inconclusive? Yet you are convinced it's Hamas, I wonder why. The hospital where we know for a fact was hit by Israeli rocket fire days prior. All the while, Israel has never stopped bombing hospitals, schools, mosques, historical sites, Refugee camps, tens of thousands of children, hundreds of journalists, and international aid workers
The IDF lies routinely, yet your so caught up in Israeli propaganda you still justify all that with the 'human shields' bullshit. Yet the only side that has extensive evidence of using actual human shields, is the IDF using Palestinian civilians.
Still living in denial that your friends in Hamas are always using entire cities as human shields, and (along with your friends in UNRWA) encouraging a disgusting culture of "martyrdom" in which the only thing better than everything else is dying to Israeli munitions so the terrorists they elected can score sympathy points.
And still spamming links to Qatari state media and fundraising solicitation ads.
How original.
Dude, not only is that times of Israel article propping up the conspiracy theory that UNRWA employees worked with Hamas to do Oct 7th, which is still completely unsubstantiated, IMPACT-se uses straight up IDF propaganda. That's such a gross article, trying to justify this genocide where over 15 thousand children and nearly every school has been eradicated with bombs. GEI is credible when it comes to textbook analysis and it's findings are much different. Palestinian children are radicalized when they experience the violence of IDF forces on a daily basis, no textbook needed.
You're so gullible you won't even read reports by Human Rights Organizations, you don't have any credibility
