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.

Russia ----> Iran ----> Alawites -----> Hezbollah (they all worked to suppress the Syrian peoples freedom and are now persona non grata in Syria, to be hunted down, like the terrorists they are). Lebanese still love them though, you know, because Jews exist.
At this point it wouldn't surprise me if Syria reached out to Israel and said the enemy of my enemy is my friend, so let's work together.
That's exactly Iran's policy in the Middle East, so that's entirely possible.
Well yeah nobody in the region wants these imperial cultist invaders and their genocide. It's a completely reasonable strategy to resist together.
That's been Iran's policy in the Middle East since Iran became a nation. And if you really think it has anything to do with Israel or that Shi'a Iran gives two shits about Sunni Palestinians, you're deluded.
Imagine believing that this hasn't already happened. There's so much evidence for collaboration. They already handed over the Golan Heights. Etc.
Sure ...... and it's being discussed on both sides, the only problem being the, Islamofascist tendency to want to kill all the Jews, other than that they would have been fast friends by now, but Israel is saying never say never, so who knows what this strange new Assad/Putin/Iran-less Syria will bring
You should know you do not appear informed if you use clownish terms like Islamofascism which were created by racists to debase Islamic nations and peoples.
Hey Islamoleftist here. Hail to the Prophet and daddy Mao. I assure you we don't want to kill the jews. I love hadim bread! Just the israelis supporters. There is plenty of non-jews who support israeli as well.
You know many of the Alawites ARE Syrians, right?
People still support Hezbollah because they're a legitimate political movement resisting invasion and genocide. They just want the foreign invaders out. Pretty simple.
I can't imagine being enough of a racist zio cultist to believe otherwise.
Syrians absolutely do not support Hezbollah, just to be clear. Remember that Syrians were celebrating in the streets when Hezbollah leader was killed by an Israeli airstrike. Syrians associate Hezbollah with the Assad regime they helped support and fought for, not with their role in resistance against Israel.
