The other thread is currently borderline unreadable due to sperging. And they're consistently about 24-48 hours behind this one. Pretty par for the course with an A&N thread, unfortunately.

Theres actually quite a bit of interesting info from people in this one and people realize that most of what's coming out of both sides' news outlets is bullshit propaganda.

The similarities Azov has with ISIS is uncanny. Sure these are snow niggers and not sand niggers but fuck me dead, it's astonishing how close they are in tactics, optics and messaging.
Probably the same CIA handlers and definitely the exact same training manual.

The A&N thread is doomed to fail because it was setup as a place to put news articles and, given the state of war journalism and vested interests, the info will be bad. Shit goes in, shit comes out.

This thread is more generic discussion/speculation, which also has problems, but we’re starting on a “this is all speculative bs” square. I think this may allow us to be more skeptical and open-minded (or as much as A&H can get). It meanders more, but I’ve learned more (or at least read interesting tidbits) in this thread more than any “news” article.

I am actually perplexed by the A&N thread because any A&N-er should know how retarded most journalists and news sources are yet on this particular topic they eat it up unquestioningly with zero self awareness.
The thread would be great as a place to post articles and break them down or just discuss them but in practice it is just a pro-Ukrainian thread. Sucks.

From October to May, yes. Give it another couple of weeks and things will change. Best you can get this time of the year is something like this.

Looks like the Ukies might be preparing another "chemical attack by russians", this time in Pervomaiskyi, and with chlorine instead of the usual ammonia.

@intelslava is more of a shill than most pro-russian telegrams, but they're basically parroting the defense ministry, that accurately predicted the ammonia bombings last month, though they didn't seem to kill anyone or amount to much back then.

Given that Pervomaiskyi appears to be a good 20-30 miles south of Kharkiv, and the Russia's should be no where near it, I'm going to call BS on their claim to know that Ukrainian troops have mined it. They'd need to know via their intelligence service not observation, and their intelligence service has been crap so far in this war.

Beyond that the ammonia bombings you cite appear to be nothing of the sort. A claim before the war started of attempted sabotage in Gorlovka, which looks more like part of Russia's justification for invading than something that actually happened. A claim that tons of ammonia are being prepared in Kharkiv for a false flag a few weeks into the war. Then an ammonia leak at a plant in Sumy a couple weeks after that. Sumy not being in Kharkiv oblast, much less near Kharkiv city, and it being an openly acknowledged leak, not some sort of bombing.

Pretty sure the A&H version of this thread is mostly the banned people who were pro-ukraine both for the most part are functioning as contained hugboxes. I also got banned here until the mod got ran out of the Autistic Thunderdome by sperging out at me and abusing their power. This place is a shithole of ideas anyway and may as well be the wild west, only modding needed is policing illegal shit and fedposting bans I am one of the only people who bothers to post war footage. Almost every participant in this thread treats it like a fucking trashcan filled with dirty condoms and needles regardless of how it was policed, modded and enforced.

Nice, the mobile crematories are back, this time not to cremate the six gorillion dead russian soldiers, but to cremate all the massacred ukrainian civilians.
SURELY now NATO will have to intervene in the war, right? IT'S LITERALLY THE OVENS.

The masturbation machines will be next used to extract the seed of brave Ukrainian fighters by the Muscovite orcs.

Classic journo headline aside this is some big news in regards to sending Ukraine weapons, as it signals the US will keep doing this (though that much is obvious) and cuts a lot of hurdles of getting stuff approved and actually sent to Ukraine.

Plus with this new genocide narrative coming directly from major government figures expect a shit ton more fancy hardware gets sent to Ukraine, and for it to actually arrive in Ukraine quickly.
