American soldiers stationed in Jordan being killed by Iran and potentially causing another Middle East war with major power involvement isn’t world news? Huh
I PERSONALLY would allow it, other mods may disagree.
I could see it being reported as a “small” story not rising to the level of “news”. It’s definitely not on the same scale as Iranian affiliated forces killing Americans in Jordan, which could spark either a new regional war, or a new front on an existing war.
This is American news, not World news.

Are American election results world news? They have a huge global ramification after all.
Debatable, trumps win possibly as fascists taking over any nation is a concern for the world.
This story involvecombat between. the governments of three of the planets less than 200 nations, there’s no way it isn’t world news.
The reason so many people want a clear delineation between US news and world news is that we hear about what happens to the US every day, every where.
World News subs are often places to escape that and provide a space for everything else in the world to have a voice.
Might as well bring r/anime_titties over here so we can have a sub focused purely on non-US related news.

This is one of those boundary crossing stories.
US troops dying inside the US? - US News. (yes, it DOES HAPPEN).

US troops dying as a result of foreign action inside a 3rd country? - World News.
So we can post about Americans being killed by cartels in Central/South America?
Yes, with a caveat…
US citizens getting killed through foreign action in foreign countries? - World News
Trump talking about wanting to use the US military to invade Mexico? - US News / Politics. Not world news.

So just to clarify, would this be okay?

I’m not trying to be a smart arse here either, genuinely curious.

Eh I guess that’s fair. Thanks.
Iran backed group attacks American troops in Jordan.
Literally news in three countries
Considering the Suez canal is being effectively blockade, this affects everyone, and is very much world news.

Would this be Rule 5 (or even 6)? My reports never seem to go through, so I’ve gotta tag you manually to do so sorry.
