    This is not a news article; it’s an opinion article and a call to action. It is relevant to a newsworthy event, but it is not itself a piece of news reporting. As such, it is not in strict compliance with the rules of this forum.

      As of a few hours ago 99% of the articles posted to this “world news” community were Israel related… With a very clear bias as well… Seemed quite bizarre to me. Looks like it’s evening out

        The things that the Netanyahu regime is doing are certainly newsworthy. However, there’s still a distinction between “news article” and “opinion article about newsworthy event”.

        Like, if Russia bombs another school in Ukraine, “Russia bombs a school” is news, but “Dear world leaders, please condemn Putin some more” is not news; it’s opinion about a newsworthy event.

          Yes indeed. I was just pointing out another apparent inconsistency with this community, albeit one that doesn’t break any rules.
