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.

Those republicans sure do give a lot of money to brown people.
Egypt always gets military aid, it doesn't stop when Democrats take office.
They control the Suez canal and are critical to stability in the region. Do you have an alternative where a deal is not reached and someone the US gets a better outcome?
Yes. No military aid, no financial aid. Pay Egypt to use their canal, free trade.
the region has no stability
I have but it involves not having an Israel and the US can no longer create war in the middle east so it's not gonna happen
So remove isreal and the US from the middle east and it doesnt address the war Egypt is fighting.
Good luck, Israel was founded for a reason, and it wasn't to get out.
Egypt isn't in a war but it's surrounded by conflict created by Israel and the US.
Can't take that away in an instant but over time sure..
The middle east is full of conflict amongst themselves, too. I can't begin to list all of the parties involved, but long story short, these countries were "made" without respect to existing tribes and political divisions. Look at everyone involved in the Syrian civil war, for example; USA, Israel, Iran, Russia, Islamic state, Turkey, Hezbollah, Syrian Arab, Syrian Democratic, Kurds, and more.
It's never been without conflict in my lifetime at least, maybe the Ottoman Empire was quieter
Egypt is fighting insurgency in the Sinai
That may be true, but the republicans are the ones who usually make a stink about 1) any sort of aid to other countries and 2) brown people existing
And now they're the ones sending money to brown people.
Republicans make stink about Democrat policies. (even if they agree)
Democrats make stink about Republican policies. (even if they agree)
They're all hypocrites. I know
