    “Accidentally” drone bombing a separate, uninvolved country, may be more concerning than doing it deliberately.

    Trump’s suggestion that the incident could have been accidental.

    This happened 5 days ago. I was shocked to find nothing about it in this community.

    I am really questioning the ability of this community to find and post the most relevant international news. We need to do better.

    EDIT: This was the result of a technical failure—not a community failure. Still, something is wrong.

        Oh, good, then it’s just lemmy’s search function that is broken. Honestly, I am relieved. How did you find these?

          I eventually figured it out. I was searching in world@lemmy.ml—not world@lemmy.world. And the first time, I was looking in world@lemmy.world under ‘Top Week’, but didn’t quite scroll down far enough lol. It was just out of range of the first page. If I had hit ‘More Results’ or whatever, it would have been the very first one. Whoopsiedoodle lol

          Anyway, it would be better if the ml vs. world mistake were more difficult to make, but yeah, human error.

      Doesn’t hurt to put it up again in case there are people who haven’t seen it.

      There is so much shit going on that it seems like people aren’t giving the event the weight it deserves. Same with Israel blowing shit up in Qatar.

      A few other notes

      • MSN links are annoying because they act as a wrapper for the content that another actual news site put out. Finding the original link is better for everyone, and it helps on the Lemmy side since then the UI can indicate cross posts with that correct link

      • I don’t find as much value in news stories with “Trump says” in the headline. It helps in order to anticipate what kind of issues he might cause next, but otherwise I’d much rather read what actually happened instead of losing brain cells reading what trump said about it

        Agreed (second paragraph)

        Trump says a LOT of things. Most of what he says are outright lies, fantasies and make believe. A lot of it is plainly insulting. Way too much of it is unhinged blurps of words that makes little sense, even grammatically. Most of what he says leads to nothing at all.

        Very little of what trump says is actually news worthy. Now what he does, on the other hand…
