Israel-Palestine Conflict

If you have evidence of Israeli crimes and atrocities that you wish to preserve, there is a thread here in which to do so.

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. - Telegram is @IbnRiad.
English-language Palestinian Twitter account which reports on news from the Resistance Axis. - Telegram is @EyesOnSouth.
English-language Twitter account in the same group as the previous two. - Telegram here.

English-language PalestineResist telegram channel.
More telegram channels here for those interested.

Various sources that are covering the Ukraine conflict are also covering the one in Palestine, like Rybar.

Russia-Ukraine Conflict

Examples of Ukrainian Nazis and fascists
Examples of racism/euro-centrism during the Russia-Ukraine conflict

Sources:

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.

Pro-Russian Telegram Channels:

Again, CW for anti-LGBT and racist, sexist, etc speech, as well as combat footage.

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.
https://t.me/UkraineHumanRightsAbuses ~ Pro-Russian, documents abuses that Ukraine commits.

Pro-Ukraine Telegram Channels:

Almost every Western media outlet.
https://discord.gg/projectowl ~ Pro-Ukrainian OSINT Discord.
https://t.me/ice_inii ~ Alleged Ukrainian account with a rather cynical take on the entire thing.

    Ukrainian Officials Are Jealous of US Defense of Israel During Iran Attack

    Ukrainian officials have expressed envy over the US’s response to an Iranian drone and missile attack on Israel that came in retaliation for the Israeli bombing of Iran’s consulate in Syria.

    The US, the UK, France, and Jordan all intervened to help intercept Iranian drones and missiles. “The whole world saw that Israel was not alone in this defense — the threat in the sky was also being eliminated by its allies,” Zelensky said.

    The attack on Israel came as Russia has stepped up its missile and drone attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, which Moscow said was a response to Ukrainian attacks on oil refineries inside Russian territory. Ukraine has suffered serious blows in the strikes as it’s running low on air defenses, and Russia’s intelligence continues to improve.

    “When Ukraine says that its allies should not turn a blind eye to Russian missiles and drones, it means action is needed — a bold one,” Zelensky said. “It is not rhetoric that protects the sky, it is not opinions that curb the production of missiles and drones for terror.”

    The US and NATO have not directly intervened on Ukraine’s behalf due to the obvious risk of a direct war with Russia that could quickly turn nuclear. In the early days of the war, Zelensky was asking NATO to impose a no-fly zone, which would have required shooting down Russian planes and bombing surface-to-air missile systems inside Russia, but the idea received little support in Washington.

    Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba acknowledged that the US and NATO wouldn’t directly intervene but called for more military aid. “Even if you cannot act the way you act in Israel, give us what we need, and we will do the rest of the job,” he said.

    zelensky-pain

    Interesting to see a "stab in the back" narrative forming. Wonder if they'll turn against the west in the future.

      To be fair to Zelensky he really has been stabbed in the back. He was stupid to believe the west when they said "whatever it takes to defeat Russia" but that doesn't mean that they didn't betray him.

        Oh yeah it's just standard western puppet stuff. Use and discard.

        though in this case ukraine being right next to the eu has the opportunity to... make life more difficult for the garden people

      When you spend a year trying to get with a guy. He finally asks you out. You go on a few dates, make out a little bit, and have a nice time. Pretty casual. Then late one night, you and him are on your couch watching a movie when a gets a booty call from his ex. He sprints out the door and then doesn’t text you back for a week…

        Realizing you’re on the side isn’t a fun feeling. Oh well, the bastard has an Italian villa to retreat to assuming he manages to dip before the bandarites stop tolerating him as useful.

          How likely is it that he gets to live in peace though? He is still a Russian-speaking jew who made an uncomfortable alliance with swastika wearing fascists, who have all openly threatened him when he was first elected. Not like it would be particularly difficult for an enterprising young man, whos family has been blown to pieces in the war that Zelensky became synonymous with, to find his house in Italy/France and merc him.

            He can afford mansions on multiple countries. Assuming a base level of self preservation instinct he won’t completely ignore whoever he ends up hiring as security.

      The US is going to "discover" all of the neo Nazis in the Ukrainian armed forces and throw Ukraine to the wolves.

      His SBU agents didn’t warn him of the Washington doctrine of unstable alliances. Lousy ass intelligence

      It’s also funny that he wants Ukraine to become Israel, but they would never compete with the US’ first love

      I don't know if any liberals actually did flee to Europe after 2016, but they're in for a fun surprise if they did
