Bulletins and News Discussion from September 23rd to September 29th, 2024 - The War In The North
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.

UNRWA 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.
Arab-language twitter account with videos and images of fighting.

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.
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.
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.
You're viewing a single thread.
Can't take it anymore god I'm losing my mind... again. Making another deranged post where I'm rambling on about stuff I can't even thinkabout no more.
Been losing my mind all fucking day ever since the news and all the fucking zionist freaks hooting and celebrating.
I just want to see every zionist punished and physically torn apart. Every smug piece of shit experiencing all the worst pains you can imagine.
I'd toss away whatever fucking morals I have left, drag my own name through the mud, condemn myself to hell if it means I get a chance to punish all of these genocidal monsters wearing human skin. I'd commit every war crime you can think of under the sun, and hell, I'd even invent new war crimes just for them. I'd bring back every fucking medieval torture method just to punish them.
I haven't been able to enjoy anything today. And there are people who are happy anyone who supports the resistance feels like this.
I can't keep it together. Try as I might I just end up relapsing into complete rage-filled despair again, over and over and over. Because the worst people in the world have all the power, and always seem to get everything they want. Always getting vindicated. Always always always.
Why can't there be a literally invincible and untouchable force or state or whatever that has the power to just threaten and crush all imperialist and genocidal freaks overnight with no repercussions? Instead we have a seemingly invincible and untouchable state in the form of the US that just does whatever it wants with no repercussions, such as aiding and supporting genocide.
If Israel wins and succeeds in their genocide, I don't see how I don't just devolve into full misanthropy.
EDIT oh god i feel slihgtly dizzy
I treat Zionist twitter/reddit like the radioactive exclusion zone around Chernobyl. If my Hitler particle detector starts beeping ominously (best indicated by the relevant flag emojis) I get the hell out of there without even reading the comments. the last time I've read what they have to say was perhaps October 8th, and I then realized there was nothing of worth. the only conceivable value of reading them is having a window back in time to what the German Nazis would have talked about if they had twitter. if you printed out their comments onto toilet paper, I would refuse to disrespect my asshole by wiping with it
HAHHAH oh god the residue is being blown by the wind it's comign into my vicinity constantly!!!!I don't eeven neeed to look at the comments or come near them, I can just feel them nearby like some ort of cursed sixth sense supewr pwoer
I must have swalloed a hitler partical emitter and now I am forced to feel the presence of HITLER 1 HITLER 2 HITLER 3 all around me!!!
Yeah, agree with this in general. You don't need to read every shit Zionist/Reactionary take out there, they're all obnoxiously predictable and all it does is make your day worse, it's not like you learn anything. I say this as someone who used to feverishly watch videos of radlibs reacting to Tim Pool or the Quartering or whoever until I realised what a colossal waste of time it all was - I wasn't even a baby leftist at the time either so don't even have that excuse lmao
I'm sorry comrade, I wish I could help
I'd say that in times like these it's good to take a break from any social media or even the internet in general. And if you can, definitely away from pro-Zionist people in your life - but I don't know your situation so I don't know how possible that is. If you are online you can find some good spaces where resistance news is being reported and see that the resistance is alive continuing.
Like others have said here, engaging with mainstream sites and people is just exposing yourself to hitler particles. It's pretty much self-harm. Avoiding it can be easier said than done, though, so I'm sorry if I'm sounding presumptuous.
No worries I don't know (key word Know) of any Zionists in my life, but I'm forced to experience a small form of Hitler particles almost every single day off the internet (I won't specify what I mean by that, since I don't want to give out any bit of information on the internet)
And also where can I find some resistance news, that'd be nice.
I get it about people, there's the ambient background hitlerion particle exposure of Western life, and it get's concentrated at places like work for me. Stay safe, and you got to take antidotes when you can find them.
As for some resistance new, the following comes from a comment by @Al_Sham@hexbear.net. I'm very much in debt to her for these links.
The following is simply a reformatted version of her comment I linked above:

The Cradle is good for up to date information but I didn't list it because it's >not affiliated with any resistance axis.
There's also the (the Electronic Intifada)[https://electronicintifada.net/]
Islamic World News is another great outlet but I also have no idea their >financing situation. They have maps though.
Others may have others to add, and I'd definitely welcome it. I've found Al_Sham's list to be very useful and I really want to thank her for it.
I'm so sorry. I understand the feeling. I don't know anything that helps, the only thing that works for me is full repression. Like an on/off switch, I break down when I can and tell myself it's not happening when I can't.
It's evil and hypocritical but I don't know what else we can do. If there's any chance of victory for any of us, there will always be an untold amount of death. I think in a way we have to come to terms with that.
Comrade, for the sake of your health, you have to step away, you have to put a barrier between yourself and these people. They're evil, we know they are, what they're cheering is a populated residential neighborhood being flattened to kill one man. They are devils walking the Earth. We can't expect any better from them, so don't let them into your mind, don't allow them in. It's nothing but poison. I've been there, and I feel the exact same emotions as you've voiced, every single thing you've said is something I've felt from the news and events alone, but you cannot allow the scum's reaction to push you over the edge.
Read the Gaza Q&A thread instead. If you've already read it, re-read it. Let the humanity wash over you instead, sorrow for them instead, and take to your heart their true belief in martyrdom instead.
The Uematsu Phantasmagoria album always helps to detox my brain and heal. Music therapy. I woke up around the time they bombed
bad headache all day.Time away from the
and close eyes and mindful breathing. Focus on the sounds and let it do it's work.Whatever you do to heal / rest I hope you feel better.
They will retell and retraumatize themselves the consequences of this genocide for generations without respect to what they perpetrated and the survivors of the genocide will have moved on and healed by then.
In times of trouble, I encourage you to come to an Abrahamic faith. Nasrallah is living with God, awaiting the blessed coming of God's kingdom. That day may be far, but it is coming. Eternal justice, providing eternal life, and the zionists will have no share of it. They will suffer eternally, while we celebrate with every martyr the eternal love of the one true creator God. Faith is hard, but it is good enough for Hezbollah. It is good enough for us, comrade.
ain't Abrahamic faiths how we got in this mess?
you don't have to fall into that trap, you can find your own spirituality, and avoid any organisation who tells you they think they know what "God" is while telling you there are a bunch of strings attached to your connection to "God", that mostly seem to involve misogyny for Some Reason
but you're not wrong, that our common enemies will suffer eternally
Zionism has nothing to do with Judaism, it's a European colonialist ideology.
I was always taught that God (whom I recognize as the person of Jesus) loves without strings attached, His love is pure and His hate is slow to come. That said, I do believe He hates 'israel', and will soon visit punishment upon them (and America, if we're lucky
)
we're realizing we are the sane people in an insane and terrible world, and its driving us crazy
