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.

So it's fine for people that live a normal life to die for nothing, but not people that waste their time reading useless stuff fulltime?

It envisages ultra-Orthodox battalions in the Israel Defense Forces

Why do they need to be separated though?

Fascists can't help but segregate

Dietary, schedule, other religious restrictions. Probably easier to have em all in one unit than have to wrangle 1 guy here, a few there.

During training they observe Shabbos and don't leave the perimeter, for example. Carve out time for study, etc.
