Global News
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 format
Post title should mirror the news source title.
URL format
Post 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] prefix
Opinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title.
Country prefix
Country 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 love how they're still trying to portray them as "houthi rebels" when they're the main Yemeni government, with 2/3 of the population under them.
Lmao what a liberal US-centric view parroting what their media says.
Ansarallah is an anti-colonial revolutionary movement originating from Yemen's grassroots in response to the US and UK-backed Saudi's bombing and slaughter of the Yemeni population. Look into what's actually happening here before commenting on it.
Lmao ig the Bengalis, Cubans, and all the British colonies should've continued to be slaughtered and exploited by "their" governments instead of taking control by force. What a disgusting thing to say.
is watching their government funding a genocide in real time
"Islamist" = any Muslim that opposes American imperialists.
Blaming other regions' "culture" and "religion/government" remains the last avenue for open racism for conservatives and liberals respectively.
Worst thing is libs often sincerely don't realize how fucking racist they're being.
Your cult is neoliberalism, your invisible master is Capital.
Evidently, since you've been deleting your racist comments out of shame
Cult != Race. If you want to be taken seriously outside your circle-jerk-bubble, phrase adequately. This was just a comment out of politeness. Won't reply further because it's boring.
Never said you were.
Cared enough to comment about it.
At least read the comment you're replying to...
And again, you clearly haven't lost interest enough to not keep replying
Okay but that’s basically how it’s always been done. “I don’t recognize the American government because they did violence against the British colonial government.” “I don’t recognize the government of Germany because it’s the result of the violent overthrow of the 1933-1945 government.”
Political power comes from the barrel of a gun, etc etc
