Image is of a Hezbollah missile attack on a military camp west of Jenin.

The situation between Hezbollah and Israel is rapidly escalating, with massive bombing campaigns on southern Lebanon by Israel predominantly on civilians (as the tunnels in South Lebanon are mostly unreachable to the Zionists, just like in Gaza), while Hezbollah and its allies respond with missile attacks predominantly on Israeli military facilities. Israel is spreading an evacuation order to the residents of southern Lebanese villages while also bombing their routes of escape and civilian infrastructure, similar to a terror tactic used widely in Gaza.

Northern Israel is currently under military censorship to hide their losses, so we get very little information other than what the Resistance provides and what videos and images get through the censors.

I don't know if Israel will dare a ground incursion soon, but it seems fairly likely in the coming days or weeks.

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.

Russia-Ukraine Conflict

Examples of racism/euro-centrism during the Russia-Ukraine conflict

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.
Simplicius, who publishes on Substack. Like others, his political analysis should be soundly ignored, but his knowledge of weaponry and military strategy is generally quite good.
On the ground: Patrick Lancaster, an independent and very good journalist reporting in the warzone on the separatists' side.

    From the Al-Jazeera live feed:

    Biden says ‘time to finalise’ Gaza deal and ‘end this war’

    US President Joe Biden has urged Israel and Hamas to finalise a months-old ceasefire proposal, telling the United Nations he was committed to ending the war on Gaza.

    “Now is the time for the parties to finalise its terms,” he said of the deal brokered by the United States, Qatar and Egypt.

    The deal will “bring the hostages home and secure security for Israel and Gaza free from Hamas’s grip, ease the suffering in Gaza and end this war,” Biden told the UN General Assembly.

    I don’t recall Biden ever being more clear that what he wants isn’t a cease fire, it’s for Hamas to surrender. When he says “Gaza free from Hamas’ grip”, he’s saying he wants a Palestinian Authority situation - which is precisely what Israel wants. Literally everything he said there is just what Israel wants: return the hostages, keep Israel “secure”, and for Hamas to self-immolate and hand over Gaza to either to Zionist lapdogs or an international coalition of American lapdogs. The idea that this man is putting any pressure on Netanyahu is obviously ridiculous.

      It's time to finalize a Ukraine-Russia ceasefire deal in which the government in Russia is overthrow and replaced by somebody who is aligned with American aims, which is definitely not indistinguishable from a surrender

      Hitler says 'time to finalise Spain deal' and 'end this war'

      German chancellor Adolf Hitler has urged the nationalists and the republicans to finalise a months-old ceasefire proposal, telling the League of Nations he was committed to ending the war in Spain.

      "Now is the time for the parties to finalise its terms," he said of the deal brokered by Germany, Italy and Finland.

      The deal will “bring the hostages home and secure security for the nationalists and Spain free from the republicans' grip, ease the suffering in Spain and end this war,” Hitler told the League of Nations General Assembly.

            And a ceasefire makes it easier for them to survive. A ceasefire is not the defeat of Gaza. It's not the defeat of Hamas. It's the ceasefire of the endless violence so that they can rebuild.

            This is not really a ceasefire. Read Biden's quote again. The conditions he and Israel have set are for the resistance to give up its leverage and for the governing organization of Gaza and head of the resistance to give up power and disband.

            And I disagree that the win condition is merely Hamas surviving. The win condition is the military/social/economic defeat of Israel and the end of the economic blockade of Palestine, the end of attacks on Palestinians etc.

            The former is needed for the latter for any medium-term realistic scenario.

            The Al Aqsa Brigades are West Bank right

            Somewhat. In this instance they are working with and often within Gaza as part of the resistance.

            Even if all the hostages are killed, it wont result in Israel losing. They cannot be used to defeat Israel, which can only be done through offensive military action.

            "Israel" is an ethnic supremacist genocidalsettler colonial apartheid state. Its people depend on the sense of their superiority and invulnerability that this system provides them. The capturing of so many hostages and holding them for so long is much of what has made the population so freaked out. It shattered this psychology and they are trying to regain it. Getting them back is a step towards doing so, so there had better be something truly compensatory in any large exchange.

            This is complete erasure of Gazan leftists who are critical of Hamas' capability and strateg

            Such as? The socialists of any importance are part of an alliance with Hamas. They are fighting in coordination.

            as well as Gazan people who support Fatah over Hamas.

            So something like 5% of the population?

            I think you are also confused about what the term "erasure" means. None of your logic here suggests they erased anything you've described.

            This is what I mean when "Gaza is not Hamas", you can be critical of the practical strategy without automatically being in support of the genocide of Palestinians.

            To me it sounds like you're trying to justify why your criticisms of Hamas should be taken as valid, not anyone of note in Gaza.

            An Al Arabiya link

            Comrade, that is a bullshit Saudi state mouthpiece. These kinds of articles are meant to serve a simple and false narrative, which is that Hamas does not represent Gazans and is therefore separate from them and illegitimate. It is, "I hate the government not the people" but for the only militant governing party in occupied Palestine.

            It is not hard to parse the tone and framing of the article. Example: "But some Gazans, who have lived in a climate of fear and restrictions since Hamas seized power in the territory in 2007, blame the group for the vast destruction caused by the war." Look at how much work that little unsourced and unexplained editorializing aside just did. Notice that the primary source content of the article is... seemingly random people who all happen to be criticizing Hamas and wanting a ceasefire. How do you think that happened? Why do you think Saudi media would want to push the US-Israeli line?

            It's important to read media critically because if you aren't careful it will have you fighting against your comrades and the oppressed. PS there were zero leftist criticisms listed in that article.

              love too "seize power" by winning an election (an election that Hillary Clinton complained the USA should have done more to rig so that Hamas wouldn't win)
