Bulletins and News Discussion from October 23rd to October 29th, 2023 - Tunnel Vision

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.

I fucking hate Germany, I fucking hate Germans, dumbest fucking people on Earth, dumber than Americans by far, holy fucking shit. We truly never moved past the Nazis, it must seriously be in our blood that we just love genocide so fucking much. The people in this country actually still defend Israel, not even the American people are this fucking dumb and gullible to their state propaganda. Unironically posting takes such as "if we give food to the gazans then Hamas can focus on their terrorism" holy fuck.
I'm so fucking angry at this country, a country full of pathetic, genocidal maggots. Stalin should've flattened the entire state, the world would be better off for it.
- Should Stalin not have stopped at Berlin, or should Morgenthau have gotten his plan?
- Unironically, the only good Germans were the German communists and now there are no more German communists.
- I live in Germany and I'm scared. There's a genocidal hate couched in moral superiority, which is incredibly disturbing. Try to bring this up with the radlibs: it's like it doesn't actually register with them. They're just embarrassed and silent for a moment, and then they're hellbent on ignoring the whole thing. Maybe if they look away aggressively enough it'll all just go away. And so it does, eventually: out of sight, out of mind. How the fuck am I supposed to live with these people?
- Augustus shouldn't have stopped at Teutoburg Forest.
  
  The great Khan shouldn't have stopped at Hungary.
