IDF casualty tally as of Sunday 22/12/2024:
– Merkava: 274 destroyed (unchanged), 710 approximate damaged, 1 targeted (unchanged)
– Narmer (As of 8/12/2024): 4 (+2)
– Other Armoured Vehicle (As of 8/12/2024): 3 destroyed (unchanged), 2 damaged (+2), n/a targeted
– Officers (As of 8/12/2024): 53 eliminated (+21)
– Bulldozers (As of 8/12/2024): 1 (unchanged)
– Weapons Trucks (As of 8/12/2024): 3 (unchanged)
– Missile/Drone Strikes on Israel (As of 8/12/2024): 6 (unchanged)
– Fighter Jets (as of 22/12/2024) : 1 (friendly fire)
– Yemeni attacks on Zionist Shipping (As of 8/12/2024): 0 Destroyed (unconfirmed) damaged 6 targeted.
Commentary:
– It’s been a bloodbath this past week for the IDF terrorists with *at least 20 terminated* in the Gaza strip.
– The missile strike on Tel Aviv seems to have injured up to 20, up from the initially reported 2. Some reports claim 30.
– IDF taking hits on the West Bank: In Silat al-Harithiya, fighters from the Al-Quds Brigades – Jenin Battalion unleashed a relentless attack, deploying anti-personnel and anti-vehicle bombs alongside heavy gunfire, leaving several Israeli soldiers injured and vehicles damaged.
– It’s clear that IDF is still being hit by Hamas and AQB attacks in all the areas the IDF claimed were “cleared”, this puts the lie to the claim that the IDF has eradicated the resistance in these areas.
– IDF Sniper and assistant taken out at close range near Jebaliya camp. Apparently the fighter was then recorded disguising himself as an IDF soldier later on. One wonders how many IDF squads are being infiltrated and struck by Palestinian fighters dressed as IDF …
– AQB mortar attack claimed to have taken out an IDF convoy in Jebaliya. Looking for follow up reports.
– If one takes the American report at face value, an American F-18 seems to have been destroyed by it’s own CSG in the Red Sea indicating the USN is unable to reliably distinguish between Houthi Drones and American aircraft in the same airspace under certain conditions. These conditions represent an exploitable vulnerability by the resistance. However, given that the Americans are champion liars it’s more likely the Houthi took this F-18 down. It’s very hard to accept that the IFF and fire control systems of the CSG failed so badly that the carrier crew took a deliberate decision to shoot down a craft that had barely taken off from the carrier! If indeed the IFF and fire control chain failed in this instance I’d say the USN has much bigger problems on it’s hands …
– “Israeli” force of nine soldiers who had taken shelters inside a house in western Jabalia refugee camp, northern Gaza. In statements on their official Telegram channel, Al-Qassam said their fighters used a thermobaric explosive, resulting in casualties among the soldiers, with some killed and others injured.
– Hamas destroyed two “Israeli” armored personnel carriers with an explosive device in the Al-Alami area in central Jabalia, and west of Beit Lahia in north Gaza.

Why doesn’t the West Bank resistance neuter the Palestinian Authority? The resistance would be much more effective if it could remove the PA monkey from its back. It must be that the resistance is too weak to destroy the PA, which means we can’t expect to see much opposition to Israel from the West Bank.

The Transitional Council of Yemen (STC), an organization that is at war with the Houthis, that it was time to give the Houthis a slap in the face.
A little background: the Southern Transitional Council (STC) is a separatist movement supported by the Emirates, it advocates for the re-division of Yemen into South and North. After the start of the civil war in Yemen in 2015, the STC was picked up and warmed up by the Emirates and made their proxies. Since 2015, Saudi Arabia has backed the Yemeni government called the Presidential Leadership Council (or PLC). The two movements now control all of former communist South Yemen and
are in a situational alliance against the Iran-backed Houthis.
It looks like the UAE and Saudi Arabia are sending signals to Iran that they are ready to set their proxies on its proxies. If that’s correct were going to find out shortly about Iran’s strength and future course.

But, the reality is IZ thinks Lebanon isn’t going anywhere. They can crush it and annex its land later. Meanwhile, they’re still reducing homes and villages to rubble there. But mostly it’s party time in Syria and IZ has FOMO.

It would not surprise me if the usual suspects were fomenting a coup in Iran. It would seem there is an internal struggle between the ‘Atlanticists’ and the theocracy / IRGC. I maintain that to maintain its effective safety net Iran should have acted immediately and decisively to protect the Lebanon / Hezbollah. Now Hezbollah has been seriously diminished in power. Iran may be still powerful but it is now far more vulnerable. China kind of chickened out. All those ‘optics’ joint exercises with masses of warships alongside Russia and Iran amounted to jack shit. I know i know ‘long game’ yada yada. The only country worth its salt, that walks the walk, Russia. Although it must be said, historically the Brits can be a fairly prickly resilient lot.

In the waters of the Red Sea so wide,
Two brave pilots took a curious ride.
Their jet, an F-18, soared through the sky,
But a tale was spun about a “friendly” goodbye.
“Oh dear, oh dear,” the officials did say,
As they crafted a story to keep truth at bay.
With blinking lights and beeping sounds,
They claimed confusion all around.
“Who could have guessed?” they did declare,
“The Houthis launched with precision and care!
A cruiser they said, fired not at foe,
Yet another thread to this curious show.
But whispers spread of a missile’s flight,
A Houthi arrow in the night.
The Truman’s deck heard tales anew,
As truth and fiction tangled and grew.
“Ejected pilots waved from the sea,
A fortunate pair, alive and free.
With a Houthi mark upon their tale,
A cover-up tried, yet truth might prevail.
“Next time let’s ensure stories align,
And grant due credit to the skillful design.
For in our battles, both near and far,
Let’s not obscure who the true foes are!”
So here’s to clarity over guise,
And honoring truth with open eyes.
Let heroes fly safe, their paths precise,
Above the sea where the truth should suffice.

55 S.P. Korolev — “Putin’s comments on Iranian ‘cowardice’ were pretty extraordinary…The establishment of a unified command under Russian supervision similar to that provided by NATO in the early years of the Syrian dirty war, and the provision of air cover for PMF and/or Iranian reinforcements against US/Turkish/Israeli air strikes should have been enough to preserve the Syrian state.There were significant risks with such a commitment from Russia, which appeared instead to defer to Turkey and allow the PMF reinforcements to be destroyed by A-10s and the SAA command to disintegrate. We can argue about the relative risk and rewards of paths taken or not taken, but we shouldn’t speak of cowardice at the level of the soldiers on the ground, especially from the top military/political leadership where the buck stops.”

I think most people miss the reality about US “diplomacy”. In general, the US does not and cannot do major diplomacy. This is why Blinken jets around the world, accomplishing nothing and looking persistently depressed. The US wants to bark orders to subservient nations, not make equitable deals. Trump must be made to look bad and Neo Cons have free access to the media to plant stories about “intelligence sources” who say he’s a traitor or under foreign influence. It’s a sort of lower level false flag.
Iran can fantasize all it wants but the truth is, the US as dominated by the Israeli Lobby would never be satisfied unless Iran is broken up into feeble pieces. Like Libya. Like Syria. And largely like a disunited Iraq. That’s the only way they will reliably be no threat to Zionists. Iran will never be completely accepted by the West or secure because of some treaty with the US – that can be tossed away in a heartbeat.
And Russia? The same. It must lose and be broken into weak, irrelevant pieces who can never challenge the West. If you doubt this underlying purpose, take a hard look at Britain. They have an obsessive hatred for Russia that is a tradition going back centuries. Britain has a shrinking military, a declining economy, poor productivity, social decay, fading freedoms and freezing pensioners. None of that discourages them from sacrificing to fight Russia as a priority.
The West has had abundant opportunities to make a friend out of Russia in years past – and they rejected that zealously. No EU, no NATO, no security agreements. It’s just hate with an overlay of appearing ‘moderate’ or ‘reasonable’. I think Putin realizes this by now – and Iran’s situation is the same. Diplomacy isn’t going to happen – or if it ‘did’, it would be utterly fake.

“Government troops, and with them the so-called pro-Iranian units, retreated without a fight, blew up their positions and left. And the same thing happened practically throughout Syria, with the exception of a few exceptions where there were some clashes.”
“It sounds like Iran has taken exception to this, but I haven’t found an Iranian statement on it”
The reason why Iran has not taken “exception” to this is because you misinterpreted Putin’s statement. Iran did not.
He said:
“Government troops, and with them, the “so-called”(meaning “hear-say”-according to the government troops)
Pro-Iranian troops, retreated without a fight”…
Putin was saying, the reports were all BS.
I’ve my reservations regarding Iran/Russia affairs/relationship. But acknowledge they are both wholly sovereigns acting in their own interests, but neither of these actors have knives pointed at each others backs.
I’m just not certain they’re aligned in objectives, and frankly, it’s simply not possible due to geography alone.
Although they both certainly share hostile Nations on every side of them both, that’s a commonality for sure.

The Al Manar report has this

The statement also said that CENTCOM forces shot down multiple Houthi one-way attack drones and an anti-ship cruise missile over the Red Sea, and that the aggression involved U.S. Air Force and U.S. Navy assets, including F/A-18 fighter jets.

Lebensraum galore – plenty of space for all your promised slaves!
Operation Bagration continuing? Or now already on to Typhoon?
Hitler would be proud of his little ZioFascist Creatures
His greatest achievement. – look how they love to Holocaust all their neighbours too!
What’s the new Moscow ? Damascus?
Or is that the Stalingrad.
Yes enjoy all the Lebesnsraum, fill your boots, frolic in the children’s blood bath.
Because as most except deluded Fascist lumpen, well know – what goes round comes around! This Karma is going to be a bitch! Where you gonna run to after this – Uganda?
Argentina? Florida is full of guns and they don’t like to be told they are your slaves!
Ho Ho Ho – Downfall is going to be a hoot!
From the Rivers to the Seas.
Ps for anyone looking for historical perspective

The covenant God made with Abraham and his offspring of the promised land does not mean Israel or Israelites, but all Christians. All Christians are offspring of Abraham. Israelites attacking Christians mean they are attacking themselves and breaking Gods covenant.
Israel will go down like Sodom and Gomorrah.
