We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

I'm not sure Ilham Aliev cared about the loss of anything except for the plane itself. Azerbaijan is another Ruthless genocidal dictatorship that's been ruled by the same family since the fall of the Soviet union.

They are objectively a mini russia. Except turkic Islamic instead of Russian orthodox.
