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.

What a useless person.
How many times he visited Tel Aviv?
He achieved nothing.
Maybe he just like a travel, financed by the public.
Biden pretty much picked this guy for his stance on Israel.
It's why I think a ceasefire will be signed before Biden leaves office.
Literally no one besides Biden would support Israel this hard and this unconditionally, so there's no way any other US president would get Israel as much as they want in any ceasefire.
They'll probably run it all the way to December tho, it's not happening soon.
Oh come on.
Name one other past president or someone you think could hypothetically be president that would support Israel more.
Biden spent 50 fucking years in politics saying nothing would ever make him lessen let alone cease aid to Israel.
It's a blank check and that's what they've been acting like, while constantly insulting Biden for any delays.
Hell, he went around congress to give them weapons for genocide? Did you forget already?
It was going to pass anyway, but Biden didn't want to wait.
He's not even out of office yet, don't start the revisions it shit already
Dubbya, Clinton, GHWB, Reagan, Trump (bonus)...if you go further you have Nixon...
All of them would support Israel more without a second thought. The only guys that I can imagine having a more balanced Israel position than Biden would be Obama and Carter.
I mean, look at Hillary's opinion: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czN4E-CTJ_E what political universe are you living in to imagine that Biden is in the extreme view here?
All of those videos except Trump seem to be critical of Israel, not supportive.
All of them at one point or another cut off weapons/aid to Israel so they'd back off and not commit a full blown genocide...
Biden hasn't, and he won't.
That's where he's different. And I don't know why people won't listen to him when he says this.
Do you think he's lying?
I added some links to look at in case you are trying to argue in good faith, there is no point in continuing this exchange.
A bunch of YouTube links and an accusation that I'm somehow arguing in bad faith...
For what reason I have zero idea.
Yeah, there's no point in seeing any of your comments again.
Historically, Israelis starts a massive bombing campaign in the day after US elections, and keeps it up nonstop until the day before inauguration. It’s almost an occurrence every four years by this point.
