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.

Biden claims twice in a day that his uncle was eaten by cannibals in New Guinea: https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/bidens-uncle-cannibals.html dog-faced-pony-soldier

“He flew single-engine planes, reconnaissance flights over New Guinea. He had volunteered because someone couldn’t make it. He got shot down in an area where there were a lot of cannibals in New Guinea at the time,” Biden told reporters.

Lest anyone doubt that Biden was saying his “Uncle Bosie” was consumed by fellow humans, he repeated the story later in the afternoon while addressing United Steelworkers union members in Pittsburg.

“He got shot down in New Guinea and they never found the body because there used to be a lot of cannibals — for real — in that part of New Guinea,” Biden said.

Just read a debooonking article that states his uncle wasn't shot down nor eaten by cannibals. He was on a plane that had engine failure and crashed into the ocean off the coast of new guinea, and his body was never found because he drowned during the crash.

What a wild lie to come up with

MSNBC has acquired this confirming footage from documentary maker Lucio Fulce.

[-] someone@hexbear.net 12 points 7 months ago

Why do I feel like God has it out for the Bidens, but has unfortunately poor aim?

Now that I think about it, that sounds like a good premise for an Oglaf strip.

[-] QuillcrestFalconer@hexbear.net 57 points 7 months ago

I wish Biden had been eaten by cannibals

[-] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 37 points 7 months ago

Where am I going to find cannibals to feed them Biden, though?

[-] ElChapoDeChapo@hexbear.net 12 points 7 months ago

Hey I'm open to trying new things

[-] Frogmanfromlake@hexbear.net 35 points 7 months ago

Biden has always been a habitual liar and it seems to have never left him.

[-] FungiDebord@hexbear.net 27 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Okay but if wasn't Papuan cannibals, who ate his uncle, huh?

[-] edge@hexbear.net 23 points 7 months ago

there used to be a lot of cannibals — for real — in that part of New Guinea

Becoming more like Trump every day I see.

[-] take_five_seconds@hexbear.net 16 points 7 months ago

oh come off it all families have their weird family legends that probably aren't true

[-] glingorfel@hexbear.net 26 points 7 months ago

who among us hasn't had an uncle or two eaten by cannibals

[-] ziggurter@hexbear.net 3 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

I was going to say it is statistically unlikely that Biden's fake family stories are all racist, but I guess he did also lie about marching with Mandela. Does "family story" count if it's about himself?

[-] sinstrium@hexbear.net 5 points 7 months ago

Biden is truly stealing valor from the Rockefellers.

[-] ziggurter@hexbear.net 2 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Damn. I'm impressed. He remembered the same racist story for, like, hours.
