Bulletins and News Discussion from October 16th to October 22nd, 2023 - If It Hadn't Been For Genocide Joe

Israel trying to pass the hospital bombing off as Palestine doing it is utterly disgusting and guarantees Netanyahu a spot in the deepest pit of Hell for all eternity, obviously, but do not forget that

a) the only reason why Westerners will believe it is because they want to believe it - they are not being brainwashed and this is not some masterful propaganda being weaved around us to turn kind-hearted people into monsters,

b) no Westerner opinions matter at all. In most Western countries there is no real anti-Israel option to vote for even if they did realize that Israel was a giant factory for crimes against humanity, and Westerners protesting against things in general almost never achieves anything (tens of millions protested for BLM in 2020 and not only did the situation not change, it got worse), and

c) the people whose opinions do matter (both the people in the region, and the leaders who aren't already Zionist compradors) already know that Israel is full of shit and that they just murdered nearly a thousand civilians in a single bomb attack.

It is despair-inducing to think that the genocidal Zionist entity is so brazenly, so smugly getting away with bullshitting this away into a cloud of confusion, as they release their metaphorical squid ink just like they did with the stupid babies story, but the propaganda and the media narrative that they are creating isn't what matters. It cannot address the fundamental contradictions ripping the country, the region, and the world apart any more than masterfully-applied makeup can fix a stab wound. It can merely obfuscate.

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.

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! Feel free to chime in with books, essays, longform articles, even stories and anecdotes or rants.

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

The weekly update isn't coming because I'm sick and too focussed on the collapse of the Zionist entity.

Colombia has expelled the Israeli ambassador, hopefully starting a trend
- I hope we do, but I don't think its going to happen. Maybe Venezuela and Bolivia, if they even have ambassadors in the first place, but I genuinely don't see any other doing something like this. From right wing governments that are pro-Israel to Argentina and Brasil having huge jewish populations and such a move would be extremely unpopular I think, Brasil could protest but in the case of Argentina the likely winners of the election are all ridiculously pro-Israel and pro-West and the current government is just wishing for it's 4 year term to end.
  Edit: I have indeed overestimated the jewish populations in Brasil and Argentina, they aren't "huge", they're nowhere near as big as the one in the US (about 5 million or so). Most Jews in Argentina seem to be concentrated mostly on Buenos Aires, that's why I always had the impression our Jewish population was massive, when in reality it's around 200k country-wide. It's even less in Brasil. Still, I believe cutting relations with Israel while being Argentina or Brasil is kinda political suicide, at least now.
  
  It's not the jewish population that is a problem for Lula. It's the indoctrinated masses of american calvinism. They are already claiming that the brazilian government is sending money to hamas. Lula has always triangulated with the evangelical churches as brazilian society is already on average extremely religious and if you happen to be a zealot the odds are you're an evangelical. It's just one of those instances where you have to work with the clay you're given.
  
  Lula come on be based
