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. 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.
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.

Limp dick Europe ain't gonna do jack shit.
They are about as complicit as US in this esp Germany.
Just blank check approval for Israel while running shiti PR about thoughts and prayers.
You're probablt right but since the EU is part of the ICC it cannot just ignore it. The head of the EU is starting to get targeted by rights groups for complicity in Genocide after the latest ICC ruling
They've been ignoring it successfully so far. International law means jack shit, it's just a fig leaf the West uses to punish enemies and make it seem like it's not purely about power for domestic consumption.
Seems warranted.
I was going to ask "which head" but of course it's vdL. It's the shame of the union how far she managed to fail upwards.
According to him, however, the death of many Palestinian civilians following a fire that broke out after the IDF attacked Rafah may change the picture.
Tfw you throw a bomb on a refugee camp but the bomb accidentally catches on fire and children are burnt alive
A very unfortunate incident. Hopefully those Palestinians learned to always have a fire extinguisher ready in case their tents spontaneously explode.
The Hamas-led fire brigade obviously allowed the fire to continue to burn. /s
Bombs are meant to make people happy. Unfortunately these bombs had a production malfunction that made it explode, causing sadness instead.
Silly Israel! Next time try checking if bombs are correctly functioning to give happy and love!

The US should get back on that gay bomb project
yeah... US should really outsource their bomb production somewhere, where they care about quality control
