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.
-
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.

But they did though I literally read headlines that said an attack is imminent and us people should move and Canada told Canadians not to go to Gaza because they said that there was an attack that was imminent
They gave warning a week ahead of time it was coming, then gave warning shortly before it began...
Biden and Israel are mad they didn't get an exact time and location along with what was going to be used 72 hours prior...
Which is just fucking ridiculous. It's at the point we can't trust what the US government says regardless of if it's trump or Biden.
Everybody knew an attack was in the offing at t he end of Ramadan. They knew it was hours away, but not because Iran said anything. It was because our satellites saw them getting launchers ready. Our satellites also saw the launches, and could determine number and type.
Oh you can see all that shit but you couldn't see the Iranian Embassy you bombed? Hilarious. Well I ran has a right to defend itself against terrorists, so I guess suck it the fuck up.
They're playing battleship and complaining their opponents didn't give them ship locations.

Sorry I don't read link you'll have to use your words
Then you'll never find out that Iran bombed an Israeli embassey in 1999, one of a few. This has been going on a long time.
Then they should have retaliated in 1999 holy fucking shit.. they just bombed new people so of course they're going to get slapped back that's how fucking War works when you're a fucking warmonger
That's pretty funny. New rule, you must retaliate within 6 months. The point is they've been going after one another, including embassy bombings, for more than 40 years. It's not something terribly new. And knowing that makes me a warmonger?
If you think that's even remotely comparable to a state actor directly and purposefully targeting an embassy, I've got a bridge to sell ya
So, in that Iran has been a state sponsor of terrorism since the 80s means nothing? In that they still sponsor Hezbollah, Houthi and Hamas doesn't mean anything. In that Hezbollah is credited with a suicide bombing of an Israeli embassey (just one of such bombings) means nothing as well. Did I get that right?
