What is global news?

Something that happened or was uncovered recently anywhere in the world. It doesn't have to have global implications. Just has to be informative in some way.


Post guidelines

Title formatPost title should mirror the news source title.
URL formatPost URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
[Opinion] prefixOpinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title.
Country prefixCountry prefix can be added to the title with a separator (|, :, etc.) where title is not clear enough from which country the news is coming from.

Some European states have recently started using more critical language about Israel’s genocidal onslaught against Gaza, rhetorically distancing themselves from the US line. But their ongoing record of complicity speaks louder than their words.

a two state solution

Would not work. Israel has consistently proven that they're not going to let national borders stop their war crimes. As evidenced by their recent violence in Iran, Lebanon, and Syria.

The only thing that would work is what worked in South Africa: overthrowing the Apartheid rule and adoption a government for and by everyone to replace the ethnostate.

Needs to not go anywhere near as easy on their ethnonationalist war criminals as South Africa and the US before them did, though.

They can have an ethno-dictatorial state or they can have a democracy. They can't have both.

Exactly. Doesn't get less democratic than people pf one ethnicity/religion having all the rights and privileges and everyone else having few to none.
