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. 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 10/19
-
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.

Pathetic act by Israel.
Proof that Iran needs the bomb, and quickly.
Yup. Going nuclear is now an existential need for Iran.
As Tehran residents evacuated the capital in increasing numbers, Israel’s defence minister, Israel Katz, threatened to make Tehranis “pay the price” for Ali Khamenei’s decision to keep firing missiles at Israel in retaliation for the Israeli attack.
This is literally an adult... saying "why are you hitting yourself".
Jesus christ I’m getting a bit worried that Bibi’s gonna pop some canned sunshine. Fuck me.
If anyone does. It'll be Nosferatu. All to cover his own ass. Because once he's out as pres he's going to jail for a loooot of corruption apparently.
Canned sunshine is the most terrifying and badass name I've ever heard used to describe a nuke.
I don’t think they will, but I’ve been thinking that one way Israel could get current and potential future enemies off their back for good would be if they finally showed the world that they do possess nukes and are not afraid to use them, possibly by making an example of someone. I do hope they won’t prove quite so callous.
If that happens (and I hope it doesn’t, but they’re crazy enough to do it), can the west stop supporting them and leave them to their own devices?
Yeah, he seems narcissistic enough that he really doesn't think there would be consequences.
Hopefully there are other people around him who doesn't want the rest of the world aiming everything they have at them.
The Tangerine Toddler wants to beat him to it
Why is Isreal bullying Iran they didnt do anything to deserve this.
Netanyahu has had a hard on for regime change in Iran for 30 years. Israel wants to destroy every country in the region that is pro Palestine. With the help of the US neocons, he has virtually succeeded; turning Syria, Libya, Iraq, Sudan into failed states that pose no threat to Israeli hegemony.
This policy was first set out in the 1980s by Israeli strategist Oded Yinon who called for breaking up Arab states into weak, sectarian mini-states (Sunni, Shiite, Kurdish, etc.) fragmenting states in the Middle East to weaken them
Bibi has to keep the war going or he'll lose control over his dictatorship
My government are insane people. They will nuke Israel the second they got their hands on a nuclear bomb and Israel is a small country. Also if you look at how they're treating us citizens you'll know both sides are horrible people
Hush my child... The real world doesn't fit the anti Israel rhetoric that many lemmy users are so used to.
If that's true why haven't they obtained a nuclear weapon in decades given Netanyahu has been warning that Iran is weeks away from developing a nuke since the 1990s?
Why did Iran sign the JCPOA in 2015 which limited Uranium enrichment?
Why did they let in IAEA to monitor enrichment?
Why did Tulsi Gabbard say Iran is not producing a nuclear weapon in March?
Radiation signatures can tell you if its enriched for fuel or enriched for bombs.
Iran did NOT want to use it for bombs. Nuclear energy would greatly benefit their energy portfolio. But cretin westeners cant see beyond bibis fearmongering and everyone thinks these people are stupid or something.
Now I think Iran should make a couple.
I also think Israel does not have any nukes themselves. No tests. No drills, no payload development. No IAEA inspections (THE DPRK ALLOWS IN THE IAEA). I think its much more profitable for Israel to fake nukes until the US helps them with actual ones when needed launching.
Iran did NOT want to use it for bombs.
Writing in all caps surely makes you 100% correct.
That was my thought, having followed the social media coverage of recent unrest in Iran over hair covering and so on. Iran does need regime change, but Israel is definitely not the right people to do it. No idea the solution, but I hope people can find a way to stay safe.
Islamophobic sentiment. Iran is as big as Germany.
Dont make 1 dimensional accusations of the country. They want to live their lives without Imperialism knocking on their door.
Of course they will retaliate.
Dude the person you're replying to is Iranian.
