A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
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.

Iran launched a barrage of ballistic missiles toward Israel in what has been described as the most serious violation of the ceasefire reached in early April
The ceasefire where Israel never ceased firing? That one? And firing a barrage of missiles is the most serious violation of it? Not the day-after-day brutal attacks and murders of Palestinians and Lebanese?
Fuck this media.
I mean it is an isrseli media . No surprise here. What surprising is lemmy users sharing from those trash sources
He must be getting sensitive about everyone saying Israel is in charge.
Israel is in charge of trump
Shared bitch between Pooting and Nuttingyahoo
And all the MAGAts, ICE cosplaygents, and Pigs/Filth are all so so so deeply fucking stupid that they can't even see they're protecting Israel ruling their country while getting none of the benefits the capitalist/political class are getting 😂
These absolutely cooked dumb fucks who couldn't critically analyse which side of toast they should butter are protecting the active mugging and raw-dogging that America is getting from billionaires that aren't even from their country (Musk) and foreign governments (BitchBi and Shitin) who are happy wiping their asses with the constitution. It's frankly embarrassing to watch
As an outside observer, watching the Delaney Hall concentration camp videos, it's pathetic to watch those tools that are standing there in their little uniforms doing the most evil and fucked up shit and call themselves Christian 😂 like it's actually cringey af that they cosplay security guards and think they're actually really the smart ones who see it all, when they can't even see what's going on in front of them.
Taking bets on Starmer and Carney.
I call the shots
Trump sure is funny for a guy with the IQ of a mushroom-growing cumsock.
You have such a beautiful way with words
Didn't we already go down this road? Didn't Netanyahu immediately fire missiles at Beriut when one of the conditions of the Iranian ceasefire was to stop attacking Lebanon?
Hell, Hegseth told the press this entire war was justified using the reasoning that Israel was going to attack Iran directly against the recommendation of the US.
Nothing about Trump's position indicates he has any ability to direct Israeli action.
LOL, is he gonna try yelling about who has "cards" again?
Seems to me that dozey don is ruled by Netanyahu and Putin.
Every single american president has all the cards against Israel and decide not use
JFK did. He used FARA to demand the American Zionist Council register as a foreign agent, which it clearly was.
Then JFK was assassinated, the demand was withdrawn, and AZC rebranded as AIPAC.
Something like the better deal we already had in place with Iran, that they were abiding by? The one that was working, until you shit all over it simply because Obama was part of the agreement...?
"politician says a thing" is not news in any way, especially when trump says it
Actually reduce weapons sent to Israel a little bit. See how that goes, or if your own party revolts.
Last time, Israel was still bombing civilians during the middle of the peace talks, I am expecting them to do the same and guarantee no progress is made.
Netty the Butcher will just whisper demands into his ear and pretend to acquiesce to them.
What a pathetic puppet show.
Trump is in perpetual denial of reality and always states the opposite. So here he's taking the shot.
I suspect Trump's meetings with Netanyahu have no instances of Trump calling the shots.
😂 sure
yes, yes, trump is such a big boy, clearly. He's almost potty trained even, and he can pick a giraffe out of the animal lineup on cognitive tests. Clearly he is in charge. At least while he is not napping and has forgotten the israeli Epstein honeypot tapes.
AIPAC will see to that. If he turns against Israel, they would send every member of the house and senate banging at his door.
Why does it even matter anymore?
I would love to see Bibi buck and thrash and piss the big baby off. Then he gets surreptitiously kidnapped and rots in a cell like another world leader, only this one would deserve it.
Speaking of that.. Did we just forget about Maduros kidnapping and swept it under the rug or is it solved?
Shocking how quick us collective masses forgot about it
I'm betting they're waiting for a billion dollar bribe.
That's sorta the point of their strategy. Steve Bannon used the term "flood the zone with shit." The idea is to throw so much insane / upsetting news at us that we can't focus on any one thing.
I hate to say but Netanyahy and Isreal will somehow put an end to Trump presidency. Expect some distraction soon.
I want to see some evidence that he calls the shots. Mr. President, you just cannot say things that are not true! You must verify. We all suspect either Bibi or Pootie is calling the shots. Now where is your evidence?
Seems like he is about to go Kennedy
I see a lot of comments itt saying Bibi calls the shots, but it's time to remind you that wealthy business interests do and always have called the shots.
Knowing the fact that when Trump says something it is 100% oposite, this is public recognition that Netanyahu is a puppet master and Trump is one big dummy puppet.
The shitty bloody truth is, that Israel does not. They have a fairly independent defence industry and it is not like any of the Arab countries on the path to Iran can do anything about the Israeli air force flying through their air space. So Israel can keep bombing. The pieces of leverage Trump has are US aid to Israel and stuff like sanctions. However Israel can probably survive even that, given they have a fairly independent defence industry and the economy is a dumpster fire anyway. If they are mad enough Israel can survive this.
Sorry, but that is the bloody truth. Israel is an Apartheid country and it took a lot to bring down the South African original. Even that was to a large degree the whites just giving up and Israel is no where close to that.
Israel is paper tiger. Imagine what Iran let alone hizbollah could do if it got billions of dollars of aid like Ukraine get or ecen 1% of that
So your argument is that the US would give one of the biggest military aid package to groups, they are currently at war with? Seriously?
Your reading comprehension is so terrible. No, i am telling you that israel is a paper tiger without the usa and that iran would crush israel easily if it had rhe amount of support Ukraine had.
