Just saw someone say elsewhere ‘Israel is an evil nation that should not be supported in any way.’
In the ‘old’ social media before smart phones were ubiquitous and BDS was becoming a thing, in the 2000s b4 2008 GFC and soon after, in ‘white western circles’ and Israel was slaughtering Lebanese everywhere, and Palestinians wherever they could, I was very much saying the same thing online. Almost no one agreed and the aggressive pushback I got was horrendous, the denial, the msm gullibility, the excuses and intolerance and pro-Israel bigotry was off the scale. No matter how much we agreed on other matters this Zionist evil Israel thing was insurmountable. Maybe one person on a discussion forum of like minded souls can I recall supporting my position but not openly.
So I suppose there has been some progress in ‘thinking’ albeit still insufficient. Because the person who just said the above is similarly still being hounded and attacked for saying what they said.

Today, of the great ape family of the Miocene, the gorilla, the chimpanzee, the gibbon, the orangutan and ourselves remain.
If we add to our chimpanzee brain, trained to live in small clans, literature of fantasies that arouse identity and we add new doses of narcissism and fanaticism … Then … we have what in archaic language of the Mediterranean of the 1st century would be called “satanic”.
Anyone who reads carefully and lucidly the old Aramaic pamphlets, for example the Book of Deuteronomy, will see that the Original Mental Software, Zionism 1.0, is exactly in archaic language of the 1st century a satanic cult.

Below is my cultural anthology report from the weekly gathering in support of Palestine in front of the local county courthouse with one way traffic and 3 travel lanes.
I lasted an hour in 80+ degree sun with about 70 others holding signs and responding to the megaphone chanter and a couple of drummers. As before it is a young/old group with few in the middle but maybe even young/old today….and lots of ethnicity…more than population percentages.
I learned that this group does not physically mix with the OSU college efforts and think that is good because more “thousand cuts” and students are focused differently…..not that they couldn’t use my God Of Mammon speech but they have to learn like we all did and hopefully they absorbed the Occupy Wall Street movement focus.
I consciously stood in a parking spot next to the travel lanes so I could observe the folks going by and summarize observations.
1. More support that before….maybe up to 30% in conservative Corvallis. I am talking waves, horns, peace signs, etc.
2. It is obvious that a percentage of folks are freaked out that this is happening and wish it would go back under the rug where it belongs….they were driving the land yachts mostly and also stared straight ahead like we were not there.
3. Got flipped off a couple of times and a few thumbs down but we are talking less than 5% total negativity.
I hope that more local small cities/towns start groups to show their support for Palestine because I do think it is not the numbers in one place but the number of places reporting unrest that will be unstoppable and make a difference in the long run.

Message to America
by Sahid Bolsen … extract
At this point America can only do one thing
to recover any credibility on the global
stage and that’s to actively aggressively
stop Israel. Just cutting ties isn’t going
to be enough at this point you need to:
impose a no-fly zone over Gaza impose more
sanctions against Israel than you imposed
against Russia you need to demand immediate
IAEA inspections of Israel’s nuclear facilities
you need to revoke the American citizenship
of every Israeli dual Citizen and seize all
Israeli assets in America and Europe you need
to take Netanyahu to the ICC yourself join
the South African case at the ICJ ban all
Israeli media treat the Israeli flag the same
way that you treat the Nazi Swastika designate
the IDF as a terrorist organization and Israel
as a state sponsor and actor of terrorism
and if that doesn’t do the trick then you
need to launch a shock and awe campaign
against Israel the same way that you did
against Iraq the same way you did against
Libya and Afghanistan and so on and bomb
them back to the Stone Age because that’s
what you do isn’t it? isn’t that supposed
to be the American way?
but we all know you’ll never do that and
because we all know that you’ll never do
that we all know that you have never meant
a single word that you said and that’s why
no one is ever going to listen to you again
the only thing that you can possibly do to
salvage yourself is something that we all
know that you will never do so you’ve been
found out you’ve been exposed your cover
has been blown the audience for all your
speeches about democracy and Liberty and
human rights are filing out of the building
and we’ve turned off your microphone and
you’ve passed the Rubicon of hypocrisy at
this point there’s no going back now the
world is moving on knowing what we know
and no matter how much you repeat you’re
completely bankrupt narrative you can’t
make us un-know what we know about you
America is a train wreck that collided with
a dumpster fire and you’re trying to put
that fire out with oil and plutonium and
everyone wants to get as far away from you
as possible!

ZH has a posting up with the title
Watch: Northern Israel Is Literally On Fire After Hezbollah Attacks
the quote

Starting Friday night into Saturday a series of surreal images and videos have circulated widely showing that whole swathes of northern Israel are literally on fire.
The fires were largely in open field areas, but were very extensive given they were the result of about 35 rockets being fired from Hezbollah positions in southern Lebanon, targeting the northern city of Kiryat Shmona, which suffered damage.
Brushfires erupted, but there were some direct hits on homes and buildings as well. “The city reported significant damage to property and infrastructure, with dozens of homes and vehicles affected,” Ynet news reports.

I will just note that Hezbollah attacks are not committing genocide like the Occupied Palestine ones.

Having Russia as part of the story sets out that just as Israel has veto and military superpower backing, so does Iran – by the power defeating NATO.

Thanks.
Hmm…..
First, Israel & Iran both know what happened and did not happen. (Therefore all related powers intelligence services and leadership know as well; the only people who don’t know are We The People – as usual.) Exhibit 1: Iran cleared the attack with many Western powers before going forward; they are in regular, if often unfriendly, contact.
Therefore, I suggest the story is not a message to governments, including those run by The Tribe, but to the rather small sector of the public who follow geopolitics. (Did Pepe’s story get widespread coverage? I don’t track mainstream media, but I doubt it.) So your above interpretation of the message – which makes sense to me BTW – is likely targeted to BRICS-supporting general readership who follow Mr. Multipolar Escobar. Or?
Anyway, I come back to the story itself: there are so many gaps I mentally cast it aside and even karlof1’s article didn’t persuade. I’m mainly a pattern-reader in the realm of news so rarely focus overmuch on data details. Also, the harder I try to penetrate public arena events the more confusing they often get, so I generally apply a soft focus. (I try to grok the overall narrative arc, not each step along the way.) I also find that stepping away from a thorny conundrum and letting it go often allows something else to come up out of left field that is much more clear. All those years on the cushion maybe…

see this whole thread. interesting. and includes an interview with Jimmy Carter who was afterwards branded an antisemite for so strongly criticizing israel
fyi
https://twitter.com/zei_squirrel/status/1789018662155821526
Zbigniew Brzezinski was a top US foreign policy official, not at all a radical, in fact the opposite. But he acknowledged truths about Israel that will end your career. Just look at this interview from 2002, when Israel was doing another one of its routine massacres of Palestinians:
“I think Israel’s international position is very badly damaged. A country which started off as a symbol of recovery of a people who were greatly persecuted now looks like a country that is persecuting people. And that’s very bad.”
“The Israelis are becoming increasingly like the white supremacist South Africans, viewing the Palestinians as a lower form of life, not hesitating to kill a great many of them and justifying this on the grounds that they are being the objects of terrorism.”
“But you cannot define the loss of human life in terms of the number of Israelis killed by inexcusable Palestinian terror. The fact of the matter is that three times as many Palestinians have been killed, and a relatively small number of them were really militants. Most were civilians. Some hundreds were children.”

I continue to characterize what we are see as a civilization war and the sides are getting clearer and clearer daily with most nations knowing it is the global finance jackboot that must be destroyed and replaced with a multipolar consortium of sovereign countries operating global finance as a public utility.
I understand that folks in the Western bubble will find my perspective hard to swallow but there is pent up demand for social change regarding global finance and that genie is now out of its bottle and won’t go back in ever as the China/Russia axis and those in the ME actively opposing Occupied Palestine are clearly stating with their actions.

@ejmalrai
To Israel’s Intelligence, Open Source Department:
I’ve met many of your members on X, who obviously don’t reveal their real activities but use different names. Some of you donate to my blog and think they can ask me any geopolitical question and expect me to satisfy their “curiosity”.
Usually, I am not rude unless I know you are a dirty Zionist. However, after exchanging a few emails, you all (3 so far) ask me the same question:
How is Hamas bringing more weapons into Gaza, and by what route?
Because the intelligence services don’t like to wait very long and want to see results, they have no patience. In their impatience, they ask the same question, all of you, under different identities and after the first exchanges.
My message:
1. Have some dignity, and don’t insult my intelligence.

3. Try to be less stupid.
3. Fuck off.
4. Do it again, and I’ll expose you to social media with the names and locations you used.

Below is the title of a posting at The Cradle
Netanyahu wants ‘demilitarized, civilian’ rule in Gaza with UAE, Saudi help
Besides being delusional it does speak to the social organizational challenges that Arab states like UAE and SA have to face as our civilization war proceeds.
I have written here before about how the future is all around us but not evenly distributed and the whole ME is a clutch of countries still heavily under the influence and “protection” of empire and will struggle to evolve away from their religious patriarchy. As that protection evaporates those ME nations will have to respond to populations watching the rest of the world throw off the jackboot of feudalistic and non-democratic societies.
As an escapee from the Catholic indoctrination and high school hacks by the Jesuits, I hold a certain antipathy towards monotheistic religions in general and usurious Pope Frank and the boys……I want to return the American motto to its original Out Of Many, One from its In God we Trust bastardization.

Here is the question.
The first time (ca. 6-66/70) they played this film about a dominant people and a subjugated population in “the land of Canaan” … “the people of the land” (“am ha’eretz”) beheaded the Sadducee priestly oligarchy of the city-Temple, fulfilling one of the prophecies of “the current-school of the Nazarenes”: read the very archaic (ca. 40-66) Text called “Mark”: 12 and specifically 12,9 and 12,12
At that time “the people of the land” were people of Idumea, Galilea and Perea; but in 20-30 years when the imperial power of Washington dissolves like a sugar cube … “the people of the land(/earth)” could be half the world, so to speak.

This is remarkable imo. Alistair Crooked on podcast with Mercouris and Norwegian co-host asserts that what happened with the ceasefire is that Bill Burns inserted into the agreement the words “sustainable calm (cessation of fighting and withdrawal of Israeli troops”), and that this parenthetical explication of what was meant by ‘sustainable calm’ was a complete give-in to Hamas, so that when Israel read this, it therefore rejected the agreement and then proceeded with Rafah invasion. This is how Crooke exonerates Israel, placing blame for the collapse of the agreement entirely on the US. Crooked appears to believe that Israel is a rational player in this genocide

I disagree; Brzezinski was nothing if not a ‘radical’.
He was born to Polish aristocracy, and we so anti USSR and Communism it severely clouded his judgement. His ‘judgement’ caused the US to make incredible blunders in foreign policy (Afghanistan against Russia; the Iraq wars; war sagainst Afghan govt.; Libya; Syria) that have put US Hegemony in a downward spiral.
Yes, Brzezinski was a wrong headed radical.

“While the most recent report regarding Israel under the NSM-20 has raised concerns, I agree with its assessment that Israel has not violated International Humanitarian Law and that military assistance to support Israel’s security remains in the U.S. interest and should continue,” Cardin said.
Check out his “Early Life” section in Wikipedia. How do people not see what’s going on? This is sick and satanic.

“After months of relentless attacks on Gaza, the Israeli regime has refused to consider a ceasefire and has escalated its military operation in Rafah.
This has sparked concerns that the conflict in Gaza may not come to an end anytime soon.
Many experts believe that Israel’s intentions are evident and that there will be no permanent ceasefire and the genocide will continue with the ultimate goal of raising Gaza to the ground.”
Correct the plan is to either kill everyone in Gaza or force them out by whatever means is necessary, and then do the same in the West Bank the evil Zionists have the backing of the US/UK/EU etc as the world watches on instead of stopping it.

This is how Crooke exonerates Israel, placing blame for the collapse of the agreement entirely on the US. Crooked appears to believe that Israel is a rational player in this genocide

You exaggerate by far. Crooke has never “exonerated” Israel to my knowledge. He analyses their situation, not justifies it. He’s pretty heavily criticised them in the past.
