Resources For Understanding The War Beyond The Bulletins


Defense Politics Asia's youtube channel and their map, who is an independent youtuber with a mostly neutral viewpoint.

Moon of Alabama, which tends to have good analysis (though also a couple bad takes here and there)

Understanding War and the Saker: neo-conservative sources but their reporting of the war (so far) seems to line up with reality better than most liberal sources.

On the ground: Patrick Lancaster, an independent journalist reporting in the Ukrainian warzones.

      Lauesen's credentials are as good as you can get in Scandinavia. He was a member of the Maoist-inspired Blekingegade group and in 1991 he and six others were convicted of a series of robberies to fund the PFLP. During their last heist shots fired from the escape car killed a cop but since the prosecution failed to prove an intent to kill, thereby making it impossible to convict anyone as accessories to murder, and since none of the defendants ratted the guy who fired the shot out, nobody was convicted of killing the cop.

        I am incredibly shocked to learn that Blekingegadebanden were maoists. I did know that they were robbing banks to fund the PFLP, which was good. Extremely funny though, that the guy who defended them in their high profile court case, and awoke the anger of every chud in the country, has now been the Chief Justice of Denmark's Supreme Court for the last 10-ish years. Their court case is also almost a textbook example of how to do Criminal Defense when your client is extremely guilty.
