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. 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.
-
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.

arrest him? I have a better idea, how about we bring him to make a speech to the congress like he's the actual fucking president or something, and give him a standing ovation! is that not what you do with genocidal war criminals?
“The government feels very strongly about the rule of law internationally and domestically, and the separation of powers, and I would note the courts have already received a number of submissions on either side and they are well seized of the arguments to make their determination.” She would not be drawn on whether the government had a view on whether a warrant should be issued for Netanyahu’s arrest, saying it was a matter for the courts.
This is a reasonable and honourable position, and I wish the German government was taking it as well. Instead, they painted themselves into a corner, giving carte blanche at the Israeli far right to do absolutely whatever.
Dont worry. On Wednesday Chancellor Scholz deemed it "disgusting" to suggest that products made in illegaly occupied territory, or ressources exploited there should not be traded with. This was an explicit aspect from the ICJs expertise, which stated that no UN country must legitimize the occupation and therefore must not engage in trade with goods stolen in the occupied territories.
Governments should in general have no say on such matters.
People elect officials for particular posts and decision-making powers for their own country. In clearly defined roles!
But somehow outside their country they may raise their stink on every random issue, without any constraints. And their stink somehow is considered.
This is the same as Artsakh "being recognized as part of Azerbaijan" by hybrids of pigs and jackals who don't have any right to talk on behalf of Artsakh.
Why did we challenge it in the first place?
Fuck I hate the tories.
The Tories' challenge is not because they have any real opinion one way or the other, but because they don't like the fact that someone is telling them what to do. They can't stand that.
It's now being dropped on the grounds that it is an utterly ridiculous political position to take. It damages our relationship with the rest of the world, fundamentally doesn't really gain us anything, and all of this is basically just symbolic anyway since he isn't going to leave Israel and so isn't going to be arrested.
Thank you for your perspective.
I had presumed it had more to do with us selling them weapons than anything so petty.
But the whole thing is moot, as you say. Just more empty posturing so we can pretend to be doing something.
Don’t worry if you’re a tory though, keir starmer has your back!
Who's that?
The current prime minister of the UK and the head of the labour party.
Oh I knew it was a new guy but not the name. Anyways I think I'll forget a couple times more.
That's a truly terrible photo of him though. If I was only vaguely familiar with him, like a lot of the world will be, I don't think I'd recognize him from that picture.
Well it says his name and the fact that he is head of the labour party in the text below aswell so…
Oh goddammit no.
Fuck's sake.
Nice! I know there's still much further to go before justice is done, but this is a step in the right direction, and I can appreciate it for that.
First class oppressors are unassaible in this world order. Most of people still believe in this world order then... that is okay I guess. -_-
I'm starting to think Netanyahu will spend his last years in the lap of luxury in the U.S. like Idi Amin did in Saudi Arabia.
Agreed.
He could join Bolsonaro down in Florida and live in a rightwing autocrat hype house
This sounds an interesting season of MTV The Real World.

...when politicians stop being polite, and start getting really fake
"The UK has dropped its opposition to an international arrest warrant for Benjamin Netanyahu, removing a key hurdle to one being issued and underlining the tougher stance being taken towards Israel by the new Labour government.
Downing Street confirmed on Friday that the government would not submit a challenge to the jurisdiction of the international criminal court, whose chief prosecutor, Karim Khan, is seeking a warrant against the Israeli prime minister. "
Good. Now arrest these war criminals.
The Tories are out, you'll see UK being significantly less wanky over the next 4-8 years.
We're back!
5 to 10. What's this 4-year term you're on about?
You could argue that actually our normal state of being is wanky and that the next 5-10 years are the anomaly.
I'm kind of hoping that the conservatives continue in their quest to basically become the republican party and will continue to lose votes from both sides. And given the way their party conferences are going and the way they're attacking each other and claiming that the reason they lost the election is because they weren't fascist enough, It's looking like a guarantee.
The Tories did lose because they weren't Fascist enough. Labour got less votes this year than they did in 2019. The Tories lost because enough of their voters defected to Reform
They also lost a lot of votes to the Lib Dems don't discount that. If they don't sit in the middle of politics then a lot of on the fence voters won't go for them.
I think that's exactly what the conservatives will do. Unfortunately I'm not optimistic enough to believe that this will prevent their being reelected. Didn't stop trump, after all.
