There were two “Reigns of Terror,” if we would but remember it and consider it; the one wrought murder in hot passion, the other in heartless cold blood; the one lasted mere months, the other had lasted a thousand years; the one inflicted death upon ten thousand persons, the other upon a hundred millions; but our shudders are all for the “horrors” of the minor Terror, the momentary Terror, so to speak; whereas, what is the horror of swift death by the axe, compared with lifelong death from hunger, cold, insult, cruelty, and heart-break? What is swift death by lightning compared with death by slow fire at the stake? A city cemetery could contain the coffins filled by that brief Terror which we have all been so diligently taught to shiver at and mourn over; but all France could hardly contain the coffins filled by that older and real Terror—that unspeakably bitter and awful Terror which none of us has been taught to see in its vastness or pity as it deserves.
Sources on the fighting in Palestine against Israel. In general, CW for footage of battles, explosions, dead people, and so on:
English-language Palestinian Marxist-Leninist twitter account.
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 Palestine! Feel free to chime in with books, essays, longform articles, even stories and anecdotes or rants. More detail here.
Here is the map of the Ukraine conflict, courtesy of Wikipedia.

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.
https://t.me/UkraineHumanRightsAbuses ~ Pro-Russian, documents abuses that Ukraine commits.
Pro-Ukraine
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.
Last week's discussion post.

Wagner as an overall operational command has been more or less disbanded, though idk what the official designation of it is, with different parts (as it was always just an umbrella command of a bunch of different mercenary companies) being either incorporated formally into the Russian military or sent off to do different tasks, depending on the level of legal separation Russia is attempting to achieve. It wouldn't surprise me if it makes headlines at some point, but the likelihood of them ever being a lynchpin player (to the degree they ever were, Bahkmut was in retrospect a media circus on both sides, but pretty irrelevant to the larger conflict) in the Ukraine war is very low.
Russia about to achieve in one coordinated move in the time span of a week what Ukraine couldn't after 3 months. Although to be fair they've always been the superior army its just funny seeing westerners coping about combined arms warfare and the Russia casually launches a coordinated 3 pronged attack into a siege. They need to actually show results here though.
Also notice the entirely different attitude towards the war BTW.
No big media announcement, no media report, no literal movie trailer lol no Russian government official talking about dreams of taking Kiev or whatever. Nothing, just go and do it.
Meanwhile Ukraine spent months and months hyping, but worst of all literaly telling their enemy exactly how and where they were going to attack.
The CounterOffensive would be seen as the worst thing a country has done to sabotage it's military operation. They might have had success if they launched it within a month of the announcement but they pulled a CDPR and delayed the launch date multiple times while dropping hype trailers and still managed to ship a disaster.

You think Zelensky will become Guaido and forgotten about by the west since they can't seem to do plan anything simultaneously
The Angloform mind can only process one imperialist international conflict at the time. If you place a bowl or box over an genocidal colonial project the anglomorph will quickly forget it exists and wander off.
Big event if they manage to force the Ukrainians out of there, this is where a lot of the shelling targeted at Donetsk is coming from. Godspeed to the soldiers on the ground, hope the people of Donetsk finally get reprieve from daily artillery strikes after almost 10 years.
