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.

None of these monarch dictatorship-british-leftover-colony asswipes of Saudi, Qatar, UAE, Bahrain, Oman .. none of these can dictate what diaper the US wants to wear let alone dictate its policy. I read the article they claim Trump needs them to control oil prices low and moderate the reigon against Iran...etc. still.. lmao wtf.. those countries are not allowed to manufacture one fucking gun on their own. Alll their oil, natural gas, currency reserves and investments are tied and sold by the US dollar and don't change away from it one cent. all their military bases, all their planes, all rockets, all guns, all tanks are fucking made in america, and cannot move unless under the orders of united states. When Trump said "without our protection, they wouldn't last two weeks" he was not exaggeratting.
Saudi Arabia planned, funded, and produced 9/11.
All of our leaders gaslight us about this, including Obama.
And now Trump is going to let them dictate our foreign policy.
Why did they do that actually? What were they trying to gain? Provoke the war machine and point it at their rivals?

Israel literarily pays congress men and politician along with running a high profile pedophile ring, shaped use foreign policy for decade, announcing the want 7 countries to be attacked by the US then the US do exactly that.. yet the article and you, say it is the Saudi who shapes the US foreign policy?
I mean better than war with Iran.
which is on the brink of a second Nakba (catastrophe)
Uh... The genocide has long exceeded the scale of the Nakba.
he would go to Gaza next week and see for himself the devastation he and his far-right allies have wreaked.
Trump and his far-right allies like checks notes Joe Biden and Antony Blinken. It's likely Israel's aid blockade was emboldened by Trump so he's certainly added fuel to the fire, but can liberals stop selectively forgetting who started the damn fire in the first place?
Israel controls the US
