Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. 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. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.
Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials or celebrity gossip is allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis.
7. No duplicate posts.
If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners.
The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
Ok, you people angry about the first source are distracting from the obvious discussion.
What the actual fuck?
The problem isn't that this could draw the US in. It will get drawn in, but not because of this.
This is going to drag the entire region into war. Netanyahou is risking destruction of everything in the region if he does this. He doesn't even care about the preservation of Israel at this point.
This will end up being a weird as fuck world war, with no clear two sides.
Why link Iran Front Page when there are international news sources?
News not directly controlled by one of the belligerent parties is always preferable.
Because the article is licensed under free license (Creative Commons).
As long as the source prove to have enough credibility, I would always link to the freely licensed version over less freely licensed sources.
That's weird reason to choose a news source...
I mean, Iran Front Page is also international, it's in English for a reason.
That said, I don't see how US sources, for example, would be more impartial than any other.
Why complain about iranian news when lemmy is overrun with imperial news?
Selling bombs to make billions killing babies.
Duh.
Yeah, this isn't a surprise, Iran is close to a nuke and this wouldn't be the first time.
Yep, colonial invaders gonna invade and colonize.
