 Hello friends subscribers and random people on the internet that I've had the pleasure of meeting over the past few days both on X and YouTube I've met a lot of people from Ireland because my recent video output on this YouTube channel has Covered a lot of stuff to do with Ireland both those in the pro-israel camp including some old acquaintances As well as those very much not in the pro-israel camps So I've had quite a diversity of interactions on these social media platforms recently This is Daniel Rosal this YouTube channel is Daniel Rosal Jerusalem and Israel unpacked and usually I'm trying always to delve into socio-economic issues and occasionally find up these rare online gems like the guy in Tel Aviv who has Established the website with the world's largest gallery of manhole covers ever documented I feel like if any video has I've struggled with the sexual innuendo going in the back of my head the manhole cover video probably Takes the biscuit, but that if you're interested in at weird and wonderful things that don't have to do with the current war Check out that video on my youtube channel. It's a pretty cool project so I wanted today to Show you show for those interested. I'm gonna send this maybe to some of my pro-israel or Israel sympathetic family members abroad Some of the new sources that I've been using to keep track of the news Regarding this conflict as it evolves. We are going into day 30. We're on day 30 today So tomorrow we're going into the second month of this conflict depending on how you count your months You could argue that, you know, there's 31 days, but Tomorrow is really I think month two of the Israel Gaza war now I personally calling it the Israel Gaza war I've decided for the moment because Israel is not just fighting Hamas So I think calling it the Israel Hamas war is misleading Israel is fighting also the Palestinian Islamic Jihad in the Gaza Strip And although toppling Hamas is its key operational objective It's really trying to root out the terrorist organizations in Gaza intent on its destruction Of course, there's also skirmishes going on with Lebanon and his Bala on the northern border And we always have the potential that this conflict is going to open up into something bigger And then at that point people who are very pedantic about Naming naming anomic nomenclature like myself will have to wonder is it is it fair to call this an Israel Hamas war? Israel Arab war if not all Arab states are participating and indeed some Arab states are actually Tacitly supporting Israel. That's a matter open for open for debate I think but all that can be really said at the moment is that Israel is continuing with its ground operation in the Gaza Strip encircling a Gaza city doing some maneuvers intended to facilitate the the evacuation of people stuck in Gaza and Really, it's little morsel of information I think coming through and I want to talk about those morsel's information in today's video now just to say at the very outset There is no way here that you know people are gonna if you're on the different side of the political spectrum You're on the pro-Palestinian side You're not gonna like my choice of new sources one little bit. So, you know My these are the ones that align with what I regard as trustworthy news and my Ideological sort of preferences in this conflict if you're on the opposing side so to speak you might you might find these Useless, but you might also want to get those that I regard as kind of at least balanced or showing the the pro-Israel narrative So let us jump in straight away without any further ado. So we're gonna cover. I'm going to cover. I should say both English language and Hebrew language news sources because I use a mixture of both Obviously, if you don't speak Hebrew, you can't read Hebrew You're gonna find the Israeli ones harder to access, but I would say actually not impossible and I'll talk about that When we go into them So here's just kind of in English news sources The one I just kind of keep an eye on during the day is the times of Israel live blog There's a few of the times of Israel journalists contributing to this including Manny Fabian who I really think does tremendous reporting But it's a it's a team of them and this just kind of keeps rolling throughout the day What I like about it is that you might think is a live blog It's gonna be kind of like a Twitter feed every few minutes and it's not that they tend to post out something every hour Or two and they tend to you know put out the more significant updates in short format. So I think It's not too overwhelming And you kind of get the picture of the big updates as they come in throughout the day Like the RAM party demands resignation of MK for casting doubt on the massacre is IDF says troops and coverage military equipment and whatnot and it just kind of keeps going and going and going I'm just gonna move the camera a little bit so I can actually see the screen as I'm talking about it So that's the times of Israel live blog and they do have a podcast as well That people do find useful and it's popular But I'm not such a podcast guy myself. So I don't listen to it. But yeah, it's it's there Here's a real gem. I've discovered. I mean, there's just such an overwhelming amount of news coming from all directions at the moment and You know, I've been trying to because as I mentioned we're getting into the second Month of the war as the month has gone on I've been trying to just kind of optimize my conflict because Staying glued to the news 24 hours a day just is not sustainable wherever you are and I put out a request recently on social media saying if anyone knows of just really really short punchy updates One update a day that just gives you the essential stuff that you really don't want to miss And a lot of people recommended this initiative that I really really think is a great website It's called Israel AM and the website is Israel AM.com. I'll put a link in the description Not that that's too hard to remember But these guys send out one short email three times a week and I think the most useful thing my kind of perspective on news is That right now news aggregation is probably the most useful skill when you're looking for a news source and Israel AM is an example of what I would call an aggregator. They're getting news in Hebrew. They're getting it in Arabic They're getting it in English and they're kind of putting it together into your daily briefing I just want to say as well for those one thing I have observed that may be completely obvious place that I throw it out there nevertheless is that the Source languages in this conflict are Arabic and Hebrew the first reports are going to be coming out in Arabic and Hebrew And if you're looking for the very best latest information, I find you'll generally get a higher quality of information By watching the news or following the news in those languages because there's always this translation delay And of course, it's important to note as well I'm going to do a video on this topic at some point probably sooner rather than later that Israel does have a military sensor Which all the Israeli newspapers have to work kind of hand-in-hand with and the military sensor's job is to suppress Information that could pass on sort of useful information to Israel's enemies So that's another reason why a friend of mine has pointed out that sometimes you'd actually find the foreign press Totally contrary to what I said now and again You will see the foreign press coming out with something before the Israeli news But usually it works the other way around so I recommend israelam.com. I find it very good Let's let's now switch languages into Hebrew and So the ones that I kind of follow a lot is Dover Tzahl, which is the Hebrew for the Israeli spokesperson now this guy Comes on if you just filter and kind of last week in YouTube you will start to get their updates And I think I probably need to Improve the spelling a little bit Dover Tzahl Yeah, this guy. So Ed Khunay Tzahl is a YouTube channel that I'm actually not sure I'm subscribed to The problem is that they kind of have their information spread out over a bunch of channels the IDF is a little bit disorganized But this is a this is a channel that you can follow Ed Khunay Tzahl That I've been watching apparently without subscribing This is that the IDF spokesperson guy and he Comes on Israeli news every day and gives kind of again punchy updates you can see this is the update for the 4th of November and it's a Five-minute video. It's in Hebrew and this This broadcast this guy speaking the IDF spokesperson will get picked up Will be played as it's released on Israeli news every night But you can also watch it as video on demand as such vod Via YouTube and he does Shavua tov So that that's this is the guy and he does do these English briefings as well So if you follow the IDF on Twitter IDF the official Twitter channel, they have a telegram channel as well Um, and you can get all these updates through that source also. So that's one. I am Ed Khunay Tzahl Also, uh, I roots are Baasuray Which is the sort of more right wing channel Their YouTube channel has been sharing his updates for days For reasons that are beyond me the neither the English nor the Hebrew IDF channel has been Uploading these videos. So they're coming from I think Ed Khunay Tzahl is a third-party source And as well as a tv station. So uh, while that situation remains you may Want to subscribe to this channel or subscribe to akhshav or Baasuray Which is as our roots are Baasuray, which is a channel 14 one of the Israeli tv stations more right wing stations And you'll be able to get his updates as well All right, um in terms of Israeli tv television So I've done a video recently about the what I call the big four Israeli tv stations Those are channels 11 12 13 and 14 11 is candy Israeli state broadcaster 12 is Kesha 13 is Reshed, I believe people can correct me if I got that wrong Not so much difference between 12 and 13 in terms of their ideological slant and then 14, which is akhshav or Baasuray Which is kind of more right wing Associated with uh, Benjamin Netanyahu. So basically the one I watch the most by far is kan-e-chadisray And that's because it's Israel's national Broadcaster and they put up the nightly news As it comes out on they have a live feed, which is what you're looking at me watching currently Um, I believe this can only be accessed in Israel. Although you can probably If you have a vpn access it, I would imagine without much difficulty through an Israeli vpn endpoint And they have a bunch of youtube channels also. Um, so the nightly news gets put out on if I can find it here Uh Can I'm going to just do my youtube here kan-e-chadisray Search for this in youtube and this is it kan-e-chadisray-tag-e-chadisray-li This is our main youtube channel clicking to videos Um, and you can find uh video content Uh coming out from then like this live stream of the um They're uh talking about the fallen soldiers here. So this is the lives. This is the live stream of their news coverage They have a few different uh youtube channels. It's worth pointing out So there's kan-e-chadisray-t this one here, which is kan-eleven news and this is where they put up their news broadcasts So you can see So this is the uh, and this is a two hour Video, so this is the full news broadcast I have to say love their intro so this is the full news broadcast starting from the top It's a two hour reel and uh, you can get that there on the on youtube Um, okay, so we looked at tv. We looked at the newsletter. We looked at times of israel And finally I want to talk about telegram so telegram, you know, there is a lot of uh very Here's why telegram has become extremely important in in this conflict. It's taken on the outside world I think the official telegram channels of the various terrorist organizations including the hemast channels have grown something like, uh You know three or four folds since the conflict broke out Now finding telegram channels is a little bit tricky because obviously telegram kind of kind of succeed or kind of does anonymous chat the best So you can see the telegram channels that i'm subscribed to are are pretty diverse There are a few of these telegram channels that are sharing the uh uncensored videos from the October 7th massacre which are extremely graphic and disturbing in nature And uh, you know, um I'm in these channels because to me it's important to see them a lot of people don't have the stomach for it Um, and there's even worse videos than I'm making it onto these telegram channels But there are a few ones called like uncensored south first responders And uh, these are important because the videos that they include are so graphic that They will be taken down off youtube and uh, twitter and all these ones So they're kind of being stashed over on telegram at the moment So if you want to see the full grizzly reality what happened, you can uh, you can look at those channels Here is um, abu aliexpress. I've talked about this in a separate video. Um And what abu aliexpress does the website is abualeexpress.com and you can click off from that into their telegram channel And it's very very active and basically abu aliexpress is an Israeli guy And this is actually the most popular telegram channel in in israel and he aggregates information as it comes in from Everywhere from the Hebrew social media the arabic social media the arabic telegram channels Um, and the reason by the way that a lot of these arabic sources are on telegram like gaza now bin jubil Is they tend to share such horrible content that they will be kicked off the more conventional channels, but if you want to abu aliexpress You will get a lot of video content coming from sources Um directly sources that the channel maintains in gaza As well as monitoring as I mentioned the arabic news. Um, there's also israeli israel today has a telegram channel Gaza now and i'm looking at sort of the source slash extreme content coming out of both sides here gaza now is a very Uh, isn't a good mass associated mouthpiece style channel uh, bin jubil is a um, I'm not sure if it's a hisbola mouthpiece or just a Lebanese channel. It probably is a mouthpiece because news network Is uh is very very pro-palestinian. It's a palestinian channel in east jerusalem and uh gaza now in english um, you have um That channel again showing really shocking stuff So people will say you're not you're only if you're only looking at one side of the Of the conflict. I see that all the graphic stuff coming out from all the sides all the time It doesn't really inform my perspective that israel needs to do this military maneuver and that the uh human collateral on the palestinian side is tragic because you can't not look at these images of Uh, you know babies being pulled out of rubble and not feel horrible for it. It is terrible Um, but uh, I don't see any other way besides the military operation that israel's going to go into The incredibly densely populated gaza strip Jewish breaking news is useful as well. And uh, I even have here. Um, the uh, uh, Sarayat al-Quds Which is the uh, palestinian hamas Um, islamic brigade. So you're really on telegram. You can find stuff that is Ranging from, you know, your conventional news sources had a shot uh, fs fs arba fs arba zero four zero four news is um is Quite good is one of the break kind of the breaking israel news sources And this is this one from el maya deen in in arabic is uh, el maya deen is a hisbala mouse piece And again, you'll frequently see reports emanating in these channels. You can just see how busy my telegram is. There's just constant updates I mentioned before uh, that translating into um If you you can actually translate these uh pretty easily in telegram if you turn on the translate function In order to do that you need to dig around in the settings a little bit But it's settings language. I'm on the desktop telegram and this exists in the um In the english one as well and you need to go settings language show translate button And then interface language english now when I right click on any of these telegram posts I'm able to translate them just like that uh into english That is uh pretty much it in terms of the news sources i'm using at the moment This is sort of a work in progress and if I make some more Changes and modifications. I will put them up. Thank you guys very much for watching this video And if you have other news sources to recommend, please do consider leaving them in a comment. Thanks for watching
