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.

And it won't matter as long as Israel receives money and support from the US.
And I doubt the US will ever stop.
Isreal is the best way to funnel billions of dollars back to American defense companies, of course it's not going to stop.
The USA has literally funded terrorist groups aka "freedom fighters" such as the IRA, the Taliban, and the Contras around the world for decades. Supporting a nuclear powered rogue state is nothing new unfortunatly
Well... none of those are nuclear powered rogue states, so maybe somewhat new
And I doubt the US will ever stop.
naah there's legitimate reason to believe that they will stop
for one, israel has mostly existed to pressure arab countries into giving the US oil. because no modern society functions without a lot of energy. now with renewable energy, that's significantly less important so i don't see why the US would go through all these hassles just to get energy.
He was told that Iran would fold quickly and it would be an easy win for his ego. It’s not happening, and even Fox News can’t sugarcoat the fuel crisis for months and months.
Now he's looking at Cuba for his 'win'.
Cuba was being planned well before the Iran War started.
You thought gas prices are bad? Just wait until sugarcane sugar skyrockets!
We don’t use any of that commie sugar in the US, all corn squeezins baybee
Same thing happened with Iraq.
We were told it would be a quick win, a month at most, and wouldn't cost more than a billion dollars.
L---O---L
Both Democrats and Republicans support this war, if not in word than in deed, and I fully expect it to last for years.
probably suggested by NETANYAHU, if you dont want these epstein files to be released, distract the public by attacking iran, and also benefiting us by giving us aid.
How about instead of Cuba you invade Israel Mr President? Now that would be something no president world ever have done. You would surely go down in history! I'm sure we can also come up with some kind of biggest penis peace prize for you.
And what, make it the 51st state? ☹️
👐the best state👐
We can keep it a territory, that's fine. They don't need to vote.
Besides, enforcing the Civil Rights act on them would be a delight to see.
In what has been described as one of the worst calls between the two, Trump “steamrolled” Netanyahu, a US official said, and Netanyahu responded with “OK, OK just make sure everything is taken care of”.
It's the Reagan moment where he figured out that he could tell them to stop for whatever they were doing and they stopped. Trump cares a lot about what people think. I would love it if he finds israel too toxic to support and cuts them off.
You enabled it and got played
America has been getting played by Israel since the 40s
Not at all, This genocide is all part of America's plan Israel is just doing the, dirty work.
It's just a minor crisis, he'll forgive him.
Wow, a rare moment of clarity for Trump?
It's an unsourced alleged phone call from a British rag. I'm really not holding my breath on this one
If it makes you feel better, it's not originally from a British rag, it's actually from White House mouthpiece Barak Ravid at Axios! The same "reporter" who's been edging the public for months about an Iran agreement being imminent to help manipulate the market every few days. So I'm sure it's true :)
When you're so deep in your dementia, your delusions go full circle.
Netanyahu turned Israel into Israpel.
isn'trael
Baby throws tantrum.
Can we get a conservative to translate?
fox, newsmax, oan, and many right wing pundits will not even report on this.
Lol this is low quality propaganda, and political circus, America is openly directing the genocide in Gaza and now Lebanon. Propaganda pieces like these are just mechanisms to wash trump's hands while the zionist butchers continue to do America's dirty work killing innocent civilians to take their land and resources.
B!tch f!ght
He's right. I used to think of Israel as just another country, and now I regard them the same way I regard North Korea.
Israel, Russia and the US is the new axis of evil
And what does everyone think of America with Trump as their leader 😆😅. Entitled, ignorant cunt!!
He sniffed a baboon's ass, then got mad that he got shit on his nose.
We'll if that's not the pot calling the kettle black...
Surely now will be the time the US decides it's bad that they're doing genicide. We're totally not accomplices, it's this guy that's wacko.
For once, he's not wrong. Though the exact same could be said about him & USA.
