Welcome to the News community!

Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. 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. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.


Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.

Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.

No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.


7. No duplicate posts.


If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.


8. Misinformation is prohibited.


Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.


9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.


All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link.

IN 16 pages, the Trump administration’s new official counterterrorism strategy outlines in broad terms who it views as terrorist threats and priority targets, ranging from anti-fascist activists to ISIS and so-called narco-terrorists. The line “We will find you, and we will kill you” appears in the memo.

Trump is picking a very interesting time to want to sick the military and his Gestapo on the US population, given how bogged down the military is in Iran and how desperately he wants to esculate it into a full blown ground invasion.

His German idol also made the mistake of declaring infinite wars too. Let's see how this strategy plays out for him and the rest of MAGA. Especially when the US military is already extremely demoralized, unlike the German military was.

Don't forget, Drumpf is the lifetime appointee to the Board of Peace, which has multiple countries donating billions of dollars and tens of thousands of troops to its agenda.

Pedonald is just bringing America to its knees, so when he leaves, America won't be a threat to him and his autocratic/aristocratic allies.

I wouldn't say the military is bogged down in Iran. It is an intractable mess that will kill millions with fuel shortages, but personnel-wise it's a very light conflict for the US. I would say that it is an active choice to embrace the downfall of the global economic system in favor of the bourgeoisie stealing one last payout from the working class, though.
