Resources For Understanding The War Beyond The Bulletins


Defense Politics Asia's youtube channel and their map, who is an independent youtuber with a mostly neutral viewpoint.

Moon of Alabama, which tends to have good analysis (though also a couple bad takes here and there)

Understanding War and the Saker: neo-conservative sources but their reporting of the war (so far) seems to line up with reality better than most liberal sources.

Alexander Mercouris, who does daily videos on the conflict and, unlike most western analysts, has some degree of understanding on how war works. He is a reactionary, however.

On the ground: Patrick Lancaster, an independent journalist reporting in the Ukrainian warzones.

Unedited videos of Russian/Ukrainian press conferences and speeches.

    People don’t break into violent protests over medical aneurisms, they do it over murder. The initial Kurdish protesters claimed she was beaten to death, it was in their communications and chants. There was no murder here.

        9/17/22 - London-based (lol) Iranian media claims she is killed with “blows to the head”

        “Her father says she was beaten to death in custody”

        Weird how a London-based gusano media org is the top reporting source on this for western press.

            How do statements from her father on 9/16/22 not qualify here? This is who sparked the unrest, and the London-based and other western funded media that pushed it, along with comprador groups within Iran

                If what you say is true, I hope Iran comes out with certain exemptions and reforms for Hijab law and morality laws, but somehow I think that wouldn’t matter. Just like Hong Kong protests this has passed the threshold where what sparked it has anything to do with what it has become. All anti-Iran pro-West groups are activated, they are going nuts right now with spook shit in Iran. Israel, Saudi Arabia and US.

                So it started under false pretenses, an understandably bereaved father made a poor assumption. Then media kept running with it even after they know it’s false. Now western spooks and Israeli and jihadists are hitting the gas.

                Sorry but this will be crushed. I hope there are some reforms but this particular type of violent protest is not going to work out here. It’s not principled

                    2 policemen got killed already. 60 ambulance got trash. So call peaceful protest, america would activate national guard and shut those down . This is color revolution through and through, and the cause of it is from her previous surgery. Not trauma or got beat up.
