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.
-
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 OCTOBER 19 2025
-
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 happened with this war? There were negotiations, then suddenly, there weren't.
Iran patience ran out. The cease fire was supposed to include the end of fighting in Lebanon . Iran warned Israel again again and again to stop , Israel refused and attacked the heart Beirut
You forgot the whole part about Israel warning Hizbollah that it would attack Beirut if they attacked the northern part of Israel.
Guess who attacked the northern part of Israel.
Maybe the invading country should stop invading? Tiny Israel just needs to do some more lebensraum. Why won't those barbaric Muslims let them steal their lands and homes?
You forgot that Israel agreed to a cease fire then kept attacking journalists, health care workers, whole families and other civilians and lebanese soldiers
Were there negotiations?
A lying sack of orange shit said so, and went out of it's diaper to repeatedly insist it wasn't yahoo-serious' plan, and a bunch of mass murderous pedo-philes ham handed "free" press to "equal weight" above points
So yeah it must be 50% true right!?
So why are the negotiations not going anywhere???
Maybe if we believe harder?
Was Iran made aware of this?
Before or after the last negotiation team was killed?
The cease fire was broken on day one when USA blockaded the ports, Iran demanded ships pay tolls for passing through the strait, and Israel and Hezbollah never got the memo to stop shooting at each other.
'Negotiating' in those conditions is performative at best.
Negotiations require at least some modicum of trust and good faith.
It's Shrodinger's war. Both a war and not a war at the same time. Neither side wants the war to continue, but neither side wants to back down.
One side, cough Isreal, is definitely wants it to continue so they can continue the killing
The US government does too. Not the people, just enough people in the right places.
