By your own logic, that wouldn’t be international news - it would be x country news and shouldn’t be posted here either. Why would it be “passable” if the news was about another country doing it?
When Trump starts threatening to glass the EU with ICBMs, would that be US news only and not international? After all, it would be about the US and its arsenal of nuclear weapons.
I totally get it, I live in the US and I’m so goddamn sick of hearing about this nonsense. The worst part for everybody else is how much money is in the US economy, which means that basically everything we do affects the world and is therefore international/world news.
