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.

Israel is the Main Culprit keeping the ECONOMICALLY NECESSARY Straight of Hormuz closed? And because of that the US Economy is going to be DEVESTATED? Quick! We MUST give the Israelis MORE US Taxdollars and MORE US Military Intelligence!
-The US Congress LITERALLY!
Those days are over! Say no to Israeli funding and YES to merging the military industrial complexes together so that you’ll never know where the money goes, let alone stop it.
AIPAC is also dead! Long live a thousand innocent sounding organizations with “fundraisers” instead. Nothing nefarious, all above board. The most moral people work in the darkness in case you didn’t know.
Netanyahu literally cannot pull his troops back. Any peace time for Israel means autopsies on the conflict and the whole Israeli government getting charged for war crimes. Governments understand this and it's going to be Western governments stepping aside and withdrawing their money to allow Israel to get flattened by the regional powers. I don't like the Israeli government, and there certainly are a lot of supporters in the region (probably over 50%), but we're probably about to see a whole bunch of innocent Israel citizens being vaporized as well.
but we’re probably about to see a whole bunch of innocent Israel citizens being vaporized as well.
Maybe they shouldn't have been openly celebrating in the streets when they were bombing Gaza.
What goes around comes around.
They have government-sponsored observation decks where you can watch Gaza through fixed telescopes while passing a blunt and cheer as bombs drop.
It's really a mystery that nobody likes them, huh.
These monsters are addicted to killing like a crack addict. Zionism is a death cult.
I think you have an oversized confidence in our international justice system. When the good guys commit genocide or war crimes, no one goes to the Hague. Cases in point: Indonesia (twice over), Guatemala, the war on "terror".
Charged by whom? Israeli courts? Yea right.
It's not even that complicated. If he lets Israel off a war footing, he's in front of the corruption court that he's attempted to subvert multiple times.
If Israel ever charges anyone over the actual war crimes, I'll eat a bug.
Nukes are so 20th century. Who needs nukes when you can literally shut down the global economy with a phone call?
Watching the US get its economy shredded by a pedophile would be a lot more entertaining if I wasn’t a participant in that economy.
This is exactly how I felt after Brexit.
"Hahahaha...oh...oh no...."
bUt ThE DoW iS oVeR 50000!!!
Yeah. I also made $438 Quabrillion in Monopoly. What's the difference?
Hopefully this helps drive a big wedge between Israel and the US. Lets stop giving them any weapons and aid. Tired of my tax dollars supporting a rich country dead set on genocide. Israel can handle their own affairs.
USA and UK created Israel for a reason, and they're fine with Israel's actions.
Israel is doing what it was created to do.
Iran did the most hilarious thing possible! They're going to bend Trump over backwards for the rest of his life.
Watching this every day is like watching two narcissists with autism arguing.
So the American surrender didn't do squat, eh?
America didnt have the zionists permission to surrender.
The only way to resolve this is to stop Israel.
Peace when markets are open and war when markets are closed.
Good for them. If the US and Israel cant keep their word then treat them like it.
Trump claims Iran deal is ‘unconditional surrender,’ says his power has ‘no limits’
did not help either
This moron can’t stop running his mouth. A person like this can’t handle diplomacy - his fragile egomania will always get in the way.
Powerful and resourceful gangsters have banded together to make war upon the whole human race
FDR, Dec 9, 1941
Give them hell Iran.
On the bright side, green energy is looking better and better each day the straight remains closed.
It's amazing that people don't recognize the actual freedom that generating your own power gives your country
id say this is 3d chess but its more like being a nation-state 101. Iran expertly played israel and america off eachother to get exactly what they wanted and give neither america or israel anything, all while driving a wedge between these two assholes.
it would be impressive if they pulled this off against highly-capable nations with well developed diplomatic corps. As it stands it kind of feels mean to big up Iran for dunking on what are effectively two asshole toddlers screaming about their toys
Nypost? Seriously? There are dozens... hundreds of more reputable source to choose from.
Thanks for the links.
The US is less than 4 weeks away from losing all of its oil reserves.
If the Zionist pieces of shit thought support for Israel was obliterated before, its about to be 0% for anyone who isn't a billionaire
It's more and more clear that the Wikipedia editors made the right choice in deciding that the US lost the war:
Well, that's embarrassing again.
Quite the Cluster Fuck and Israel, with their US politicians, are running the USA into the ground.
