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.

I just looked at your account, it's two years old and you've been saying the same stuff, so maybe you are legit and actually believe this stuff.

To take it at face value: No one's "harassing" or "attacking" anyone here. Just saying that we think carving out a specific exception to "never again" for the Palestinians is pretty on-the-nose fucked up. Now imagine that we bombed their apartment block, and then bombed the tent in the refugee camp where they went to live after that, and the journalists who went to report on it. That would be attacking.

Two years ago, you said Israel "will make an effort to minimize civilian casualties." How is denying food aid while the country is starving to death minimizing civilian casualties?

A year ago you said, "there’s no way to rationalize out support for an organization that purposefully murders Jewish children." Is there a way to rationalize support for an organization that purposefully murders Palestinian children?
