For Doubters – Hizbullah Reports That It Is Back
The Zionists had hoped that their terror tactics of exploding pagers and the bombing of Hizbullah's leadership in Lebanon would hinder or decrease its enemy's ability to fight.
That hope however was in vane. Hizbullah, like its Hamas ally in Gaza, was build to sustain its efforts despite such incidents.
Today, Naim Qassem, the deputy leader of Hizbullah appeared in a broadcast and declared that Hizbullah remained fully operational:
In his address, Qassem stated, “We are firing hundreds of rockets and dozens of drones. A large number of settlements and cities are under the fire of the resistance.” He emphasised that Hezbollah's top leadership remains active and that the posts of the slain commanders have been filled, asserting, “We have no vacant posts.”
How useless it is to kill an enemy's leadership was also shown in Gaza:
[A]n insight into what is actually going on in Gaza was offered by Israel's latest announcement that it had killed three senior Hamas officials – Rawhi Mushtaha, the head of government and de facto prime minister; Sameh al-Siraj, who held the security portfolio on Hamas’s political bureau; and Sami Oudeh, commander of Hamas’s General Security Mechanism.
The air strike happened three months ago, and no one had noticed their absence. This is because Hamas continued to function regardless of which leaders were alive or dead.
In the past, assassinations had led to a period of uncertainty for Hamas. This happened after the killing of Abdel Aziz al-Rantisi in 2004. But it does not work today and nor does it work with this generation of fighters.
Yesterday Hizbullah fired five missiles on the harbor city of Haifa. Today 100 more missiles followed.
These are in response to Israel's bombing of Beirut's suburbs.
Israel has committed several division to invading the south of Lebanon. The distance they have managed to intrude from the border is still measured in mere meter.

#Hezbollah's media warfare department is back: command and control is fully operational. Missiles and drones are filmed as they are launched. This means that the Ridwan ops will be filmed as it confronts the Israelis, in order to restore the morale of resistance supporters against the invaders.
Yesterday missiles from Gaza, Iraq and Yemen were aiming at Tel Aviv. Today Hizbullah also sent missiles towards it. Each such attack will cause an air alarm. People will interrupt their work and go into bunkers. Israel's air defense will exhausts it supplies while at least some missiles get through and hit their targets.
How long will the Israeli society sustain such stress?
The IDF Home Front Command is issuing stricter guidelines in several cities near Haifa, which prevent schools from operating.
Schools will not be able to open in Kiryat Ata, Kiryat Bialik, Kiryat Yam and Kiryat Motzkin, under the latest guidelines. Schools will stay open in Haifa itself, provided that a bomb shelter can be reached quickly enough.
The change comes after Hezbollah fired 105 rockets at the Haifa area this morning.
The Zionist prime minister Benjamin Natanyhoo urged the people of Lebanon to raise against Hizbullah. For him to do so must mean that the war is not going the way he hoped. There is zero chance that such an uprising will happen.
On October 1 some 200 missiles from Iran hit military targets in Israel. The publicly available videos show dozens of hits on an air base with hangers and planes affected. Damage at the other targets is still kept under censorship. But is is obvious that most of the Iranian missiles passed through Israeli air defenses and hit their intended targets.
While Israel has said that it will hit back in revenge for the strike is has yet to do so. It is likely that it fears the response that Iran would unleash on it.
There are thousands of missiles hidden in well protected Iranian sites that are aimed at elements Israel needs to function. Its electricity networks, refineries, harbors and airports are all targeted and would be hit.
This will be a long war and Israel, which had expanded and escalated it whenever possible, is not prepared for it.

The Zionists are the latest in a long line of patsies.
LoveDonbass: That’s one awesome, highly-evolved extremely powerful “patsy” that can control the U.S.’ entire foreign policy apparatus and intelligence operations, and _back that up_ with complete capture of Congress, and _back that up_ with complete capture of the Religious Right _and_ the liberal left.
That’s a pretty awesome “patsy”.
Anyone that still believes the Zionists are patsies is doing an awful lot of selective observation-repression. No way a “patsy” gets that much control before … here it is, LoveDonbass … before the patsy becomes the host. The patsy has become the host.

Constantine, I think your rendition is a lot closer to the mark, as is Trubind’s (and others in this thread) who assert that opportunism and might-makes-right ethos has permeated the upper ranks of American policy for … a very long time.
But as Constantine asserts, there’s been a train-wreck (from my point of view) of confluence of the innate predatory nature of the U.S.’ “elites” and a very effective re-packaging and justification of that predation in the form of the NeoCons (The New American Century) and the Zionists (We’re ordained by God to Own Everything).
It’s this confluence of sociopathic intent _and_ technical mastery of the means, including comm channels (monitoring and recording of Internet activity), of “the narrative” (Hollywood and TV), of narrative enforcement (AIPAC, ADL, the social-media censorship), the weaponization of the law (use of FBI to repress, use of Justice Dept to prosecute outliers), the CIA to conduct “color revolutions” and to steal entire countries (like Ukraine) on behalf of the behind-the-scenes oligarchs …
This collaboration, the cohesive, coordinated, highly effective design and application of all these tools is a plan, a project, a well-shared philosophy.
The Zionists bring the cover story, the political shield (holocaust, et. al), the victim-hood, the NeoCons (and the Zionists) bring the Divine Right of Kings Entitlement perspective, and all the opportunistic fellow-riders (Trump, Biden, Name-Your-Oligarch (Defense contractors, Musk, Zuckerberg, Do-No-Evil Brin and Page bring the operational mechanisms) … they are all on the train.
This is an almost-global phenomenon, as Snake pointed out. The philosophies of the Zionist-Neocons are on full display in the UK, Germany, France, Canada, and Australia. The same rules apply across these very politically diverse, yet _remarkably_ behaviorally-similar countries … for ex: can’t ridicule or defy the Zionist-NeoCon agenda, right?
Even in Russia, Mr. Putin has to step very gingerly. He’s bent over backwards to avoid antagonizing the Zionist Oligarchs that occupy key – vital – roles in Russia’s industrial and financial infrastructure.
So I assert to you, Constantine, that this Zionist-NeoCon phenomena has “metastasized” way beyond the historical norms of just, for example, being able to make big war-loans (Balfour) or campaign contributions (Truman), or “own the newspapers, so own the polity”. That was last-few-centuries “amateurs” at work.
This Zionist-Neocon gang delivers a whole new level of control and coordination. It’s well beyond anything, in terms of comprehensive political control and raw economic power (the Banks have unlimited credit, right? Enabled and fully back-stopped by the Fed) anyone’s ever seen.
There’s never really been anything like this.
When people ask “who’s the tail, and who’s the dog?” they’re missing the point. The Dog is a monolith. It’s one well-integrated, highly purposeful, immensely powerful and dangerously misdirected force.
Yes, Constantine, and other commenters – this force has several historical tributaries, but it’s become One. And I posit – the reason many of us root for China and Russia and Iran is because we see them as the last bastion of resistance to this gargantuan force that’s beset us. We don’t think we can stop this crazy, and we’re hoping someone else will.
For me, I still am afflicted by the hope – against all available evidence at the moment – that the promise – the much-acclaimed promise of the American experiment in self-governance will somehow survive all this, and finally get its mojo on. And that, of course, is why I’m willing to say all this publicly.
