Major ambush of zionist forces near Jabalia camp. First an enemy hummer was targeted with an anti-tank shell; then after the enemy forces retreated to a building, the building was targeted with a second shell. Then, as three helicopters attempted to evacuate their dead and wounded, one of the helicopters was struck by an anti-tank missile. At least three are dead and there are at least 11 casualties total.

It should be noted that the ruins of Jabalia camp are in the far north of Gaza, and was one of the first areas “cleared” by the enemy. Nearly 2 years of genocidal campaigning and bombardment has failed to make the area safe for the occupation.

In related news, earlier today the IOF confirmed that 75 officers and soldiers have been wounded in the Gaza strip over the past 6 days (unclear whether these figures include the toll of tonight’s attack)

Just point at the global border regime which exists purely to keep poor people in the exploited global south and unable to enjoy the wealth plundered from them, which is hoarded in the global north. It’s far larger and more violent than the Berlin wall ever was; it spans the entire planet.

@Z_Poster365 you should check this out too <3

begs me for sources on an uncontroversial claim

finally gets given them because I’m sick of your whining

bitches out and calls me a clown for something unrelated

can’t handle the truth huh? ^^

I was speaking about the Iraqi PMUs in that instance, not just “unnamed resistance organisations”, and that was evident from the context of the discussion. You make it sound like I was saying Hezbollah and Ansar Allah are working with the US state dept. That is a misrepresentation.

It is fairly easy to find information on Operation Inherent Resolve, part of which involved the US providing direct and indirect support to groups under the PMU umbrella as they fought ISIS on the ground for the Iraqi state (amongst many others). The PMUs were the most effective combat force in Iraq at this time and quite obviously benefitted from US airstrikes against ISIS. If you are not aware of that then you just don’t know that much about the conflict, I’m sorry to say. There are few sources on this either way because a lot goes on there that doesn’t get into traditional media, and these organisations aren’t just going to do a press release stating that they’re working with the Great Satan, for the same reasons that the US also doesn’t say “we carried out strikes in support of these organisations” - it looks bad for both sides.

Hereis an article from 2014 detailing Iran’s approval of co-operation with the US in the fight against ISIS. This is from the BBC, who obviously have an anti-Resistance bias, but given that this makes Iran look more reasonable (and especially given that the usual western line is that Iran is a repressive theocracy no different to ISIS, whereas this shows them siding against ISIS), it’s likely to be based in truth.

Here is another article in which the US-based(!) director of the international relations office of the PMUs stated that they were ready to join an “all-inclusive” volunteer force against ISIS, i.e. collaboration with all factions including US-backed ones. Again, there was nothing wrong with this move. It was the right move at the time, because ISIS are a genocidal organisation that threatens everyone in the region.

Can you stop replying with this to everything I post in the news thread now? It’s really reddit-y behaviour, and you’re just demonstrating that you know fuck all about the politics and history of the region. It’s not a “smear” to acknowledge that reality is more complex than black-and-white. It’s not a smear against the USSR to say that they benefitted from US support during WW2 either, so long as you’re not saying that was the primary factor in the Red Army’s victory.

you unironically think that Jihadism is a monolith and it’s a sensible analysis to say that ISIS and HTS are exactly the same group, so I don’t take your view on the matter particularly seriously and nobody else should

this guy, a locked room, a hammer

Second round of Russia-Ukraine negotiations ended after an hour, Turkey says “non-negative” outcome.

Looking into it more - Ukrainians presented completely unworkable demands that would effectively constitute Russian surrender. Including allowing them to join NATO, no limits on army size, and usage of Russian funds to reconstruct. Not surprising it was over so soon.

A senior Iranian diplomat told Reuters that Iran is working on drafting a negative response to the American nuclear proposal that was delivered to Tehran days ago. Iran’s response can be considered as a rejection of the completely unilateral American offer.

Starting to seem like there won’t be a negotiated settlement. It’s been nearly two months of talk. The question is really whether the entity and its allies are ready to swallow the consequences of a strike on Iranian facilities. I’m not convinced the US administration has the stomach for it…

doesn’t feel fair to reduce my contributions on Syria to “SDF defending” when I am the only person I’ve seen in here even mention the Islamic Resistance Front and its activities over the past few months

Ukraine is a national socialist state for sure, but assuming that the genocide you’re referring to is the Palestinian genocide, Russia is pretty much as culpable and has been a long term ally of shitrael. There are nazi batallions in both armies too, though Russia’s have a lot less influence over the political echelon for sure

tbh i just hope for whatever will end the war the soonest, and curse my own government for directly sabotaging the peace agreement that could have been reached in 2022. The longer this all goes on the closer we get to a nuclear exchange. and every day that this goes on, hundreds of people lose their sons and fathers.

nobody should be “dooming” over a bunch of bombers getting destroyed when those bombers belong to a reactionary capitalist dictatorship

it’s definitely not a good indication of the Russian state’s national security and general competency, though.

I’m happy to say it was a false flag, especially when it’s politically expedient to do so, but that it “makes no sense” can just as easily be explained by the fact that there are loads of people out there enduring the mental torture of seeing children burn to death every day while living in a rich society that perpetuates it. It’s unbearable and it can drive people to do impulsive things. We should focus our attention on the fact that these acts are inevitable and will only become more common and violent for as long as the genocide continues and peaceful dissent is met with violent reactions.

how

probably just someone who was tired of seeing people being burned alive in Gaza tbh

could have been one but this is the sort of thing that happens when you shut down all peaceful expressions of dissent

Buckle up friends.

oh no, there goes free speech, they’re gonna start sending riot cops to beat up peaceful protestors now, because of what this guy did

apparently someone set some zionists in colorado on fire. thats really terrible it’s awful that they experienced what israel has been doing to Palestinian children for the past several decades. really really sad. i’m actually upset, i actually feel really upset now.

tbh wouldnt mind seeing a lot of the reactionary olds in this country have to go stand up for their “principles” in a meaningful way. would be a lot better than letting them sit in their massive houses whining about young people and making things worse for everyone, while middle aged and older Ukrainian men are forced at gunpoint to march into certain death on behalf of our government

other than de-growth, which basically no one is interested in.

happily, de-growth is what we’re getting whether we like it or not! can’t have economic growth on a planet where you can’t grow food

Z_poster obviously doesn’t mean the entire ethnic group of Kurds

then why use that term?

just like how when we say “the whites” or “the Americans”

Europeans, and Americans, have nation-states. The Kurds do not and so referring to “the Kurds” as such doesn’t make sense in the same way.

Also, the mega based leftist kurdish female fighters are not going to have marry you

Weird thing to say.
