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.

many countries have schools close to or nearby or in military bases.
America for example: https://dodea.widen.net/s/hnzlgvtmvq/dodea-by-the-numbers
we knew this. all the technology that we have and we bombed them.
its a warcrime.
I feel the word "war crime" has lost any meaning after the last few years
This particular article does not say that. It says it hasn't been able to rule it out. Which honestly doesn't make a lot of sense, you would think we know who flew where and dropped what at a specific time and place.
Regardless of who did it, it is a disgusting war crime.
A shame for the GOP. I'm sure they regret the loss of potential child trafficking victims.
If they could have somehow gotten them to ICE, what a waste.
Seems logical that it could have been intentional. The US/Trump wants an all out war in order to cancel elections and seize more power.
He does a little oopsie and kills a bunch of innocent children; they get pissed off, attack the US directly, and then he has a war that both populations want. Kind of like 9/11, but we are the terrorists this time.
I think if there are boots on the ground, then all bets are off and that scenario might play out -- but who knows?
I’m fairly certain that war can’t stop elections in the US, from a constitutional standpoint.
I agree. But also he said this a while back:

He will try anything to either stop or rig the elections. The Democrats taking the house would be an effective end to his presidency/ reign of terror -- as long as they aren't all aipac shills.
Can these US citizens be put on trial for murder or war crimes by chance?
Yeah no shit sherlock
America is so good at making school children fear for their lives that were exporting that to other countries.
The expansion of the GOP war on women. 😓
Not just satisfied with raping little girls, got to blow them up to.
I mean, it was their money
Would be hilarious if Israel bombed something and went "what do you mean it's an American bomb. Wasn't us"
Also fuck zionists
