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.

Israeli settlers brutally beat 20-year-old Palestinian-American Sayfollah Musallet to death in the West Bank, while U.S. officials remain silent. His family demands justice for the senseless killing. Why do Americans continue to be murdered by Israelis with no consequences? #JusticeForSayf

Yeah he is a Palestinian American, so based on the current government that person was not a real American so it doesn't matter.

Anybody expecting that government to do anything that might just the order strings is sorely not understand what is going on in the US.

I don't understand how so many fucking people can see what's going on in Palestine and think "this is fine."

I spoke to avrelative about this... A devout Christian. She said they deserve it because of Hamas.

Obviously she's not a very Christ-like Christian, but she's definitely the common republican Christian we have here in the States.

It's just... So fucked up. These people are so fucked up, and a critically important part of their brain that shield feel empathy and compassion is 100% broken.
