Friendly reminder: when commenting about a news event, especially something that just happened, please provide a source of some kind. While ideally this would be on nitter or archived, any source is preferable to none at all given.

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.
English-language Palestinian Twitter account which reports on news from the Resistance Axis.

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.


The Country of the Week is still Palestine, though we will switch next week to a new country.


Here is the map of the Ukraine conflict, courtesy of Wikipedia.

The weekly (biweekly?) update is here.

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.

just got back from a protest, there were a lot of Genocide Joe signs

[-] TheLepidopterists@hexbear.net 25 points 1 year ago

Did this one originate here? My wife was saying she'd seen it on TikTok recently.

I made this comment on Oct 12. I challenge anyone to find an earlier usage. I even searched Twitter when the nickname broke hexbear contianment.

Someone else here came up with Apartheid Antony, as well, and Zyklon Bibi might have also started here.

[-] emizeko@hexbear.net 20 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

what I think is me using "Zyklon Bibi" first on Oct 17/18 when the leak about gassing the tunnels dropped

Found an earlier mention from 2021 but not in relation to Gaza. It's in relation to Joe Biden being lax on the Uyghur genocide (the quote was taken out of context as far as I can tell)

[-] mkultrawide@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yeah I switched to Yandex after I made that comment and found one from a year ago on the lifeboat site for r/TheDonald lmao. I don't care I'm declaring victory anyways, the election was stolen.

[-] SeventyTwoTrillion@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago

You're the one who popularized it and I think that's all that really matters

[-] mkultrawide@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago

I would't go so far as saying I popularized it, but thank you for your support, trump-dapper

[-] Frank@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago

History is written by the victors and I intend to win.

[-] the_kid@hexbear.net 14 points 1 year ago

I doubt it, but that's what we've been going with anyway

[-] Dessa@hexbear.net 22 points 1 year ago

Theres always the possibility of concurrent creation

[-] Maaj@hexbear.net 12 points 1 year ago

Especially when it comes to addictive alliteration

Genociden Biden has a better ring to it

[-] Commiejones@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago

I like Geno-biden, the rhyme of Genocide'n Biden is good bit but Genocide joe has a good rhythm and I think it wins.
