In a major OSINT breakthrough, The Palestinian Observer unmasks the operator behind one of Telegram’s most aggressive pro-Israeli news and propaganda channels: Bellum Acta. Far from being a Western military analyst or Israeli insider, Bellum Acta is run by Marcos Vinicius Oliveira de Barros—a failed Brazilian businessman, compulsive crypto gambler, and far-right extremist from Rio de Janeiro.
News Format, Weaponized
Bellum Acta brands itself as a breaking news and military analysis channel, presenting itself as an authoritative source on Middle East conflicts—especially Israeli operations against Gaza and the wider region. Its posts blend live updates, military terminology, and supposed “insider” perspectives to target pro-Israel audiences worldwide. The channel’s hasbara campaign is methodical: framing Israeli actions as righteous, Palestinians as subhuman, and Western support for Israel as an existential civilizational necessity.
Behind the formal “news” veneer, however, is a pattern of hate and extremism. Chat leaks and posting history reveal Marcos orchestrating the channel’s tone:
- Uncritical praise for Israel (“God bless the State of Israel and the Jewish people Xoxo fr…”)
- Dismissal of Palestinian suffering and calls for more violence (“More toasted kebabs soon,” “A Final Solution for the ayr-ape question”)
- Adoption of Nazi rhetoric and far-right memes—while simultaneously running a channel that postures as pro-Jewish and pro-Israel.
Extremism Hiding in Plain Sight
The final proof? Leaked voice recordings confirm Marcos’s real accent and identity—shattering any illusion of a Western or Israeli “insider.
Marcos’ personal chats reveal a disturbing double life:
- On Telegram, he is the “news” admin pushing supposed analysis and “fact-based” reporting.
- Privately, he spews racial slurs, idolizes fascist tactics, and mocks the deaths of children
The logs show:
- Repeated advocacy for mass violence: “If it wasn’t for Biden shilling at the UN, Gaza would have faced a Final Solution last year.”
- Open use of racist language: “Everyone here is a racist,” “What you niggas think?”
Chronic Gambling and Financial Desperation: A Pattern of Self-Destruction
While presenting himself as a confident analyst on Bellum Acta, Marcos Vinicius Oliveira de Barros’s private messages reveal a reality of personal financial collapse driven by compulsive gambling and reckless cryptocurrency speculation. In numerous chat logs, Marcos documents his repeated failures and desperation to recover losses:
- “Bingus made me lose 300 USD lmao”
- “I’m financially dead”
- “I hate being poor”
- “Thinking on taking a loan and putting on FTM”
- “Which shitcoin do you guys have for tonight”
And when desperation hit, he went straight to scamming his own viewers:
Here’s a previous post where he tries to sell a money-laundering tool, blatantly abusing the trust of his audience while secretly fearing for his life:
“Admin has in hands the source code for a system that links the famous XMR (Monero) with the banking system, especially instant payment systems—which has already been tested with considerably large amounts of money with success for more than 8 months in a row—which I would like to sell for practical reasons. …The price of such is 0.20 BTC | 80 XMR (Sadly, bargaining isn’t an option).
