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.
- Blogsites are treated in the same manner as social media sites. Medium, Blogger, Substack, etc. are not valid news links regardless of who is posting them. Yes, legitimate news sites use Blogging platforms, they also use Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube and we don't allow those links either.
-
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 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.

I’m starting to understand the art of the deal now. You see, it’s to get fucked over so many times on purpose so that you appear like you can’t negotiate shit. Then one day you turn the tables and catch everyone off-guard, scoring a major win. I have a feeling trump is just waiting for that golden opportunity. Truly a master at the craft, truly.
What do you mean? Ignore the kayfabe anger / hostility with Netanyahu for a minute, and this might be the best deal trumps ever negotiated by his standards ( there's always a winner and a loser in a negotiation- and Netanyahu os a friend, hamas is an enemy)
He got his ally (not the israel- us alliance, the trump- Netanyahu one) exactly what he wanted- all the living hostages, and many of the dead ones, which was one of the main Israeli complaints about the war.
He gave both sides a tough guy act, hamas bought that he was really going to be tough on israel, and gave up their main leverage in exchange for prisoners israel doesnt really care about, and didnt get a peace deal, just a ceasefire, and the begining of negotiations- and they didnt even get a good starting point for those.
The baseline is basicaly gaza surrendering all weapons, disolving hamas, and getting an israeli ally-controlled government/ reconstruction. (All that reconstruction money is going to get eaten up in graft by trump allies) And If they refuse, trump drops the tough on Netanyahu act, blames everything on hamas for refusing to negotiate, peace talks and ceasefire over, and the killing starts again in earnest, now with no fear of hitting Israeli hostages.
Tldr, the anger with bibi was fake- and hamas bought it. They did the half of the deal (hostage swap) without getting any guarantee in return, and now trump will push them until he has 'no choice' but to go back to full throated backing of israel's total war.
