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.

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.

Last week’s discussion post.
1-2 weeks ago: “Leftists have no idea about history. People can join bad organizations, even the Waffen-SS, to resist a foreign occupation and that doesn’t make them a Nazi or a bad person.”
Now: “Any Palestinian who joins or assists Hamas or any militant Palestinian group should be shot on sight. I support a complete siege of Gaza; all 2 million people inside must suffer, even die, for their crimes.”
Just wanna say a big fuck you to all the people that said the work Palestine Action were doing in the UK was useless and pointless adventurism or purely aesthetic.
Elbit Systems reduced their ammunition production by 75% in the last few years, and halved their drone production. All of this was happening in the UK and while it’s probably only in the hundreds of thousands of 20mm - 40mm rounds and hundreds of drones these are still resources that have been deprived of Israel in this conflict.
Every single person that took part in those weapons factory attacks is a fucking hero in my eyes.
Genuinely impressed by how mind-bogglingly stupid the average westerner is. Feed the westerner any propaganda slop and he’ll eat it with a massive smile on his face while thanking his master. The allegedly propagandized asiatic Russian and the dumb bloodthirsty Arab already knows that most state news is fake and shouldn’t be trusted, but the westerner can’t even form an opinion without eating some slop first. You know as an Arab dude with a fucking family here in the West, it’s getting harder and harder to live with such a hostile racist society. I’ve discussed with my wife if it’s perhaps smarter to just cut loose the “privileges” of the West and move back into the Arab World and raise our future kids there. I’m close to the edge, I can’t tolerate life here anymore.
I was all for Palestine until they rudely interrupted my music festival next to the world’s largest concentration camp, forcing me to fly back to JFK in economy. They have left me no choice but to advocate for genocide.
I’m revising my position on the odds here.
The fact that the US is sending a second carrier group that will take 2 weeks to arrive is indicative of western generals believing that the Israeli position is not strong enough, and that they think it will still be needed even 2 weeks from now is a strong indication they don’t think this will be over quickly.
Everyone that spread doomer shit about violent resistance being pointless and doomed was completely fucking wrong.
I am legitimately seeing what “paper tiger” really means.
guy who supports palestine purely because paragliders are more a more eco friendly form of warfare than airplanes
Japan asks court to dissolve Unification Church over assassination of former PM Shinzo Abe
can we even call this dude an adventurist now? He actually accomplished his goal wtfWatching a livestream from Gaza at the moment. It’s night, and it’s very eerie. Pretty much the entire city is pitch black, only a few lights can be seen in the distance. But the sounds, that’s where it gets terrifying.
The nights are not calm, the Palestinian does not sleep, the night in Gaza is full of activity and dangers. There’s the constant sound of an aircraft engine, it’s very likely that this is at least one UAV flying above the city, watching them closely from above. From time to time, a jet engine can be heard, and not long after, an explosion. The explosions are heard intermittently, they break the silent of the night, they wake people up, and those who are not asleep will most likely rush towards the explosion to begin the horrible task of removing debris and see who can be pulled out alive… The average palestinian in Gaza does not sleep, they can’t, they know that any minute now could be their demise. There’s no shelters, no fancy Iron Dome, just counting on your blessings that the incoming missile doesn’t hit your place. These nightly sounds are all meticulously crafted to break the Palestinian’s spirit, every sound is there to remind them they’re stuck in this concentration camp called Gaza.
To every fucker both-siding this conflict: First, suck every nanomillimeter of my third world cock. Second, watch 5 minutes of live night footage from Gaza. Tell me if the average brooklyn colonizer piece of shit in Tel Aviv has to live through the same horrors EVERY. FUCKING. NIGHT.
When Free speech ain’t bussin’
Israel has now cut off food, water, gas, and electricity to Gaza. Israel is essentially in full control of Gaza’s borders, and residents of Gaza have nowhere else to go.
Israel is denying Palestinians basic requirements for human life, while simultaneously bombing dense residential areas. I see no way to look at this other than genocide.
Anybody else notice how the western media and governments are working overdrive to frame the attack as purely terrorist against civilians and not even mentioning the military aspect whatsoever? They don’t talk about the IDF bases that were destroyed or the checkpoints. Apparently every death is just some random “innocent” woman
in the last 18 months people who voted for Warren in 2020 have told me:
medieval-style city starvation sieges are ok
nuclear war wouldn’t be that bad
our view of the Waffen SS needs some nuance
i keep thinking they’ve shown their entire ass but then they somehow keep exposing even more ass
One thing the Palestine situation has revealed is the pure, vapid emptiness of liberal ideology. I’ll bet you everything I own that every one of these universities putting out their genocide-supporting statements have some sort of land acknowledgement on their website.
It’s all virtue signaling. If indigenous Americans rose up and tried to take back their land, you’d see them change their tune real fuckin’ quick. They’d be shitting their pants over the brown savages coming to kill them and behead their precious white babies. They would demand concentration camps.
Modern liberal ideology is just conformism. It is a cynical weaponization of actual beliefs against anything revolutionary. It’s so-called “beliefs” can be twisted to mean anything at any time.
This is been fucking me up so much that I’ve been crying the entire last three days. My girlfriend’s family is of Palestinian descent, and seeing entire families been wiped out from the face of the planet, people who resembles me and my family holding their dead relatives in their hands it’s really devastating. Also seeing the West always portraying themselves as the civilized ones is infuriating, fucking barbarians, they can get away with genocide in this century while the world watches. I cannot believe it.
r/worldnews creatures seeing a cartoonishly fake dead baby story and immediately going WE HAVE TO KILL ALL THEIR BABIES is just maximally chilling
the west’s full to the brim with temporarily embarrassed dirlewangers
