Israel trying to pass the hospital bombing off as Palestine doing it is utterly disgusting and guarantees Netanyahu a spot in the deepest pit of Hell for all eternity, obviously, but do not forget that
a) the only reason why Westerners will believe it is because they want to believe it - they are not being brainwashed and this is not some masterful propaganda being weaved around us to turn kind-hearted people into monsters,
b) no Westerner opinions matter at all. In most Western countries there is no real anti-Israel option to vote for even if they did realize that Israel was a giant factory for crimes against humanity, and Westerners protesting against things in general almost never achieves anything (tens of millions protested for BLM in 2020 and not only did the situation not change, it got worse), and
c) the people whose opinions do matter (both the people in the region, and the leaders who aren't already Zionist compradors) already know that Israel is full of shit and that they just murdered nearly a thousand civilians in a single bomb attack.
It is despair-inducing to think that the genocidal Zionist entity is so brazenly, so smugly getting away with bullshitting this away into a cloud of confusion, as they release their metaphorical squid ink just like they did with the stupid babies story, but the propaganda and the media narrative that they are creating isn't what matters. It cannot address the fundamental contradictions ripping the country, the region, and the world apart any more than masterfully-applied makeup can fix a stab wound. It can merely obfuscate.
Sources on the fighting in Palestine against Israel. In general, CW for footage of battles, explosions, dead people, and so on:
UNRWA daily-ish reports on Israel's destruction and siege of Gaza and the West Bank.
English-language Palestinian Marxist-Leninist twitter account. Alt here.
English-language twitter account that collates news (and has automated posting when the person running it goes to sleep).
Arab-language twitter account with videos and images of fighting.
English-language (with some Arab retweets) Twitter account based in Lebanon.
English-language Palestinian Twitter account which reports on news from the Resistance Axis.
English-language PalestineResist telegram channel.
Various sources that are covering the Ukraine conflict are also covering the one in Palestine, like Rybar.
The Country of the Week is still Palestine! Feel free to chime in with books, essays, longform articles, even stories and anecdotes or rants.
Here is the map of the Ukraine conflict, courtesy of Wikipedia.
The weekly update isn't coming because I'm sick and too focussed on the collapse of the Zionist entity.
Links and Stuff
The bulletins site is down.
Examples of Ukrainian Nazis and fascists
Examples of racism/euro-centrism during the Russia-Ukraine conflict
Add to the above list if you can.
Resources For Understanding The War
Defense Politics Asia's youtube channel and their map. Their youtube channel has substantially diminished in quality but the map is still useful.
Moon of Alabama, which tends to have interesting analysis. Avoid the comment section.
Understanding War and the Saker: reactionary sources that have occasional insights on the war.
Alexander Mercouris, who does daily videos on the conflict. While he is a reactionary and surrounds himself with likeminded people, his daily update videos are relatively brainworm-free and good if you don't want to follow Russian telegram channels to get news. He also co-hosts The Duran, which is more explicitly conservative, racist, sexist, transphobic, anti-communist, etc when guests are invited on, but is just about tolerable when it's just the two of them if you want a little more analysis.
On the ground: Patrick Lancaster, an independent and very good journalist reporting in the warzone on the separatists' side.
Unedited videos of Russian/Ukrainian press conferences and speeches.
Telegram Channels
Again, CW for anti-LGBT and racist, sexist, etc speech, as well as combat footage.
Pro-Russian
https://t.me/aleksandr_skif ~ DPR's former Defense Minister and Colonel in the DPR's forces. Russian language.
https://t.me/Slavyangrad ~ A few different pro-Russian people gather frequent content for this channel (~100 posts per day), some socialist, but all socially reactionary. If you can only tolerate using one Russian telegram channel, I would recommend this one.
https://t.me/s/levigodman ~ Does daily update posts.
https://t.me/patricklancasternewstoday ~ Patrick Lancaster's telegram channel.
https://t.me/gonzowarr ~ A big Russian commentator.
https://t.me/rybar ~ One of, if not the, biggest Russian telegram channels focussing on the war out there. Actually quite balanced, maybe even pessimistic about Russia. Produces interesting and useful maps.
https://t.me/epoddubny ~ Russian language.
https://t.me/boris_rozhin ~ Russian language.
https://t.me/mod_russia_en ~ Russian Ministry of Defense. Does daily, if rather bland updates on the number of Ukrainians killed, etc. The figures appear to be approximately accurate; if you want, reduce all numbers by 25% as a 'propaganda tax', if you don't believe them. Does not cover everything, for obvious reasons, and virtually never details Russian losses.

Last week's discussion post.
Closing down a french taco restaurant would be an act of mercy, God knows what they're putting in those tortillas.
"First, oui put down de duck fat livurr paté, then, we put de roast duck, den de ratatouille, den finally: un fresh remoulade."
It's worse than you imagine. Fast food "french tacos" have little to do with the actual Mexican food item, despite vaguely claiming inspiration from it; they've started appearing in the 2000s here.
As Mexican food it's an abomination, but I'm kinda into what I'm seeing in that link. Basically a grilled chip and kebab wrap? I'll take two please
As you can imagine, the main target demographic is roughly that of donër: people coming out of the pubs and high school students.
Lmao it’s a Cali burrito
its only a cali burrito if it comes from the cali region of nafta. otherwise its a hamas taco.

Sounds like a poorly made hand rolled cigarette that you smoke after having an affair with your third mistress
fuck the fact they put in french fries kinda makes me dig it. my favorite heart attack burrito joints do that
they re probalby way better then the mexican, french know their cousine and they dont use shitty US produce....
if the Mexican where so good , they wouldnt have to change it in the first place ...
next struggle session topic found
this constitutes fighting words, sir. I will see you at dawn.
i just checked into it further , and the french variant is way more practial to eat , tacos always disintegrate in their stupid taco chip ship ? smart french looked at it and used a proper bread (! a French bread !).
Must be fucking amazing , a Taco you can eat civilised..
I am begging europeans to try actual Mexican food before comparing it to French kebab wraps mislabeled as tacos
i did ! , i ate actual authentic Mexican food (in Bottrop) , it was alright.... !
my brother in Marx, you cannot even get good Mexican food in like, 46 of the 50 US states... While I don't doubt whatever is on offer in Bottrop is a good effort, you have been deprived of the glorious product of the sunny nation of Mexico and your life is worse off for it
and honestly its a crapshoot in those 4
Absolutely true facts
This is the perfect phrasing for american Mexican food.
I spent 3 months in mexico eating from any taco stand I could find (the best was the stand at the south entrance to the Cineteca Nacional in DF) and didn't have an issue once which is a big deal for a guy with no gallbladder. Had a couple tacos in LA before my flight home and I was spraying the whole flight.
i will put something out for our sw yankee comrades in that it is always the least authentic and shittiest joints that give one the [intestinal horrors].
that's kinda of the fucked thing around taco bell (to slightly change the subject), everyone's all like "tacobell gives you the runs" no, food that is produced with the least amount of care and underpaid employees gives you the runs. i've eaten at some janky fucking places and i've never had trouble that way, because food quality coorelates to the pay, breaks, and resources you give your cooks, not how fancy the sign is outside
Bottrop & Kassel are not us states 🙂
well yeah, my point was about proximity to Mexico, specifically that the further away you get from Mexico the worse the "Mexican" food gets. Maybe there's a big Mexican community in Bottrop?
just fucking with you all (i was way to successfull btw)
in all seriousness theres a theme running through europe , having all the good foods but mexican is missing and people that had "good" mexican food then always search for the closest thing to it in Europe ....

so the french returned to the actuall Tradition , but stupid Angloid Hexbears with their Hardshell texmextacos obviously dont know these details.. ?
Have you only had hard shell tacos? Have you never known the goodness of a campechana double wrapped by warm corn tortillas??
SO you are stating the French Tacos are actually proper mexican Tacos ?
The 'French tacos' I Googled look like what some people would call a burrito (a wrap made with a soft corn tortilla).
????? Only in texture. Looks like they use flour tortillas which is a significant difference.
Late to the party, but flour tortillas are traditional in Northern Mexico, even for tacos.
German calling some shitty French approximation of ethnic food 'civilized'
Jesus Christ bro
jesus crist bro , do you eat them with your hands ???
least stupid German food opinion
Death to America
Please say sike
This has to be a bit:
The Bear has spoken. The next struggle session is 'Authentic' ethnic cuisine.
Pretty sure as well, in another comment:
respectfully, wild ass take here
I find this comment eurocentric, disturbing, and just plain shameful in all aspects.
status confirmed
I find th Angloid attitute of Usurping "Mexican Food" deply distrubing , you have actually never tasted Authentic Mexican Food , like i have (in Kassel)
