A place for Australians and friends to share news from the other countries. Like all communities here, we discuss topics from the Australian perspective.

If you're looking for a global /c/worldnews instead, search for the many options on federated instances.

Rules
  1. Follow the aussie.zone rules
  2. We are not a generic World News clone. News must be relevant to Australians and our region. Obvious disregard will earn an warning and then a ban if continued. (If an article isn't from an Oceanian news outlet, and it doesn’t mention Australia, then it’s probably off-topic)
  3. Leave seppocentrism at the door. If you don't know what that means, you're not ready to post here yet.
  4. Avoid editorialising headlines. Opinions go in the comments, not the post.

Countries are legally bound by the 1948 Genocide Convention to oppose genocides, something that recognizing the self-determination rights of the Palestinian people before they are wiped out entirely is consistent with, whether or not Republicans recognize it.

agreed

and we should investigate this genocide thoroughly and then enact justice

I've been supporting self determination for a long time

they need some kind of convention to determine what kind of country they want

what kind of economy

what kind of political system and what kind of relationship between government and citizens

what kind of freedoms and rights for the people

what kind of social support system

what kind of infrastructure

what kind of checks and balances on government

what foreign policies
