Here is why Israel thinks it should exist and be a member in good standing at the UN:
[Add to the below the use of starvation as a weapon]
1) I torture UN workers
2) I bomb embassies
3) I refuse to declare my official borders as I want more and more of other countries’ (plural) land
4) I openly interfere in the affairs of other countries.
5) All criticism by any member of the World Community just reinforces my sense of privileged Victimhood
6) I never tell a lie as I have no concept. I only know what serves me.
7) I invented the Samson Option and will take the rest of you with me.
8) I commit collective punishment
9) I kidnap thousands, including children, with no judicial oversight
10) I will commit torture if I see fit and even if I don’t
11) I oppress occupied inhabitants and enjoy doing so
12) I commit rape with impunity against mine enemies
13) I steal land with impunity
14) I murder with impunity
15) I commit premeditated Genocide
16) I look forward to war and prod my neighbors for more
17) I need money, send a check
18) I commit false flags and if friends or even my own people are sacrificed so be it.
19) I implement the Hannibal Doctrine
20) Treachery and betrayal of my own people are a means to an end
21) I support and conduct terrorism.
22) I openly interfere in the affairs of other countries, seeking support for all of the above
23) I know that I can count on other amoral nations to support my wars, oppression and theft.
24) I know that the World Community will not stop me as I commit future Genocides
25) I target aid trucks and kill their workers;
26) I especially target hospitals;
27) I kill civilians prisoners, women and children and old people.
28) I use my lobbyists to attack, intimidate and silence freedom of speech
29) I torture and kill UN workers and their dependents
30) I protected Zionist perpetrators of the Holocaust and lie about their role.
31) I cannibalize living Palestinian captives for their internal organs
Those that would make it illegal to protest against Genocide
support the Psychopathic Genocidal Entity that has given voice to
the urge to kill us all (Samson Option).
When madness speaks people
had darn well listen!

Amos Goldberg, Professor of Genocide Studies at The Hebrew University in Jerusalem “Yes, it is genocide. It’s so difficult and painful to admit it, but we can no longer avoid this conclusion. Jewish history will henceforth be stained”

Yesterday, I saw a video on X of 2 women pro-Palestinian protesters in NY (protesting Ben Givr’s presence in the US) being harrassed, assaulted and threatened with rape by a mob of Orthodox Jewish men. It turns out one of the women was Jewish; she is anti-Zionist and anti-genocide. She put out a statement about her assault later.
———–
“the only thing that gives me some joy is that while all the zios were celebrating and laughing at me im over here thinking yall hit a Jew w. a damn israhelli passport!!! great job”
A NY woman shares on Instagram in a post that she is Jewish and has an Israeli passport and was wearing a keffiyeh on Thursday night outside Chabad-Lubavitch World Headquarters in Crown Heights, New York, where racist Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir was giving a speech. She was left bloodied with a head wound that required medical attention after a violent mob of mostly Orthodox Jewish counter-protesters attacked and assaulted pro-Palestine protestors. The incident also led to six arrests.
Another incident from the night shows the pro-Israel mob violently assaulting and abusing another woman who appears to be a protestor. See linked post below.
https://x.com/DropSiteNews/status/1916208339488219317
—————–
In addition to being repeatedly kicked in the back by the mob of pro-Israel supporters chanting “Death to Arabs,” the video shows one man heaving a full garbage can into the woman’s legs, knocking her off balance. Moments later, another hurls a traffic cone straight into her head, stopping her cold. She lets out a sharp yelp, recoiling in pain, as the officer rushes her toward a police car while the mob screams, “Get ’em!”
At one point, the racist mob—made up largely of what appear to be Orthodox Jewish men—encircles her, taunting her with explicit threats of rape as the crowd grows increasingly frenzied.

London Marathon Disrupted by Pro-Palestine Action
Today’s London Marathon disrupted by two members of Youth Demand. From their statement :
­ At 10:35am, the two brave young people jumped over the barriers at Tower Bridge and threw red powder paint in front of the men’s elite race at the London marathon, wearing ‘Youth Demand: Stop Arming Israel’ t-shirts.
City of London police quickly moved to arrest the pair for ‘public nuissance.’
We have to ask ourselves: who are the real criminals here? Is it Cristy and Willow, acting to protect life, or is it the Starmer government, that has flown over 500 spy flights over Gaza to assist Israeli war crimes?
Should young people of conscience get arrested, or should it be those cheering on the monstrous crime of blocking all aid into Gaza, pushing two million Palestinians to the brink of famine?
Willow is just 18 years old, but has to put their freedom on the line to resist this genocide. Ahead of the action, they said: “I am taking action at the marathon because I have run out of other options: thousands are being killed in Gaza, our government is making no effort to stop it and no other course of action, marches or rallies, has worked. We don’t want blood on our hands, we don’t want to be forced into complicity with a genocide. We need more people in resistance, refusing to be complicit whilst upholding international law, now more than ever.”
We can’t allow politicians to run away from accountability for their war crimes. By continuing to arm Israel, Starmer has crossed the line from genocidal denial to genocidal complicity.
We need YOUR HELP to hold them to account.No one else does what we do.
We have pulled off 75+ actions in ONE month, shutting down London with hundreds of people. Today, we disrupted one of the biggest sporting events in the country to force attention onto the slaughter.
We raised £25,000 and got the front page of the Sunday Times, on top of 1000+ major articles including the Guardian, the BBC, the New York Times, and more.
And we have done this despite unhinged levels of state repression, with over 35 supporters arrested over the month of April. We can do this work because our supporters chip-in to keep us going. We will be working throughout the summer to support everyone that has taken action with us and to empower people to come back stronger than ever.
We will kick off a mass training program for all the new people who joined during our action campaign this April. Help us cover venues cost, provide food and get external speakers – let’s train the next generation of revolutionaries! Setting up a monthly donation now to help us plan long-term and come back stronger. Thank you!

Zionism is like mass formation psychosis but racist and violent. The same sort of fanaticism we saw during COVID.
It is a little scary that humans can be easily manipulated to behave that way completely overriding morality and compassion.
Now I think I can understand what gripped the Germans, Japanese, and Italians during WW2.
90% of the modern West’s problems manifest as mental illness, IMO.

Salt metathesis of ammonia perchlorate is not efficient I think. Though sodium perchlorate is not hard to fabricate as precursor to ammonia perchlorate, I suppose that would be infrastructure that could be targeted. Both have various uses, but not in great volume afaik, only rocket fuel. Anyway, in itself it is not considered a military explosive or fuel, and anyone might as well consider table salt a precursor also given sodium perchlorate is made from salt.
I guess it just suits Iran to import from China.
If it was sodium perchlorate that exploded, it would make wonder why it is stored in large quantities together. Having said that, the explosion could have been from a single container worth , say 20 cubic meters or eq 50 tonnes (if I calculated right) ? The import was said to be 1000 tonnes or so I think.

There is the Torah and then there is the Talmud.
The Torah is Revelation. Rabbis wrote the Talmud. The Talmud is about the superiority of the Chosen.
The Christians have no similar excuse for colonialism or its many genocides.
That all said, this has nothing to do with religion. This is just psychopaths inventing rationales and mystique to justify their evils.
Judaism and Christian Zionism are distractions.

People who claim antisemitism never happened and the European Jews who founded Israel were puppets to some colonial cause are not making fact-based claims.
Similarly people who claim Hamas is somehow responsible for Israel’s ongoing apartheid and ethnic cleansing are selectively seeing history.
Many Israeli people want coexistence.
But the “free money for race war” external funding is a substantial barrier.

British Israelism is a syncretic cult ideology claiming the Anglo-Saxon-Celtic peoples are the biblical “Lost Tribes of Israel,” that the British monarchy descends from King David, and that Britain is destined for global rule. Its modern influence is no accident—it was cultivated.
https://x.com/apocalypseos/status/1916293335440101627/photo/1
The roots trace to Venetian psychological warfare. Paolo Sarpi, a 17th-century strategist, manipulated religion to divide Europe and suppress Renaissance science. Venice fueled the Protestant Reformation, hardened Catholic counter-reforms, and kept the continent in perpetual conflict.
British elites later adopted these tactics. Figures like John Dee (Elizabeth I’s occult adviser) and Francis Bacon (who framed science as esoteric “secret knowledge”) blended mysticism with imperialism. Rosicrucians and Freemasons spread the idea of Britain as a new “chosen” nation.
By the 19th century, British Israelism became imperial policy. Lord Shaftesbury and the Crown-backed Palestine Exploration Fund promoted Jewish return to Palestine—not for Jewish benefit, but to secure the Middle East under British control, using Biblical prophecy as justification.
The ideology spread to America through:
• Dispensationalism (End Times prophecy)
• Christian Identity (white supremacist theology)
• Freemasonic networks
It embedded itself in evangelical circles, far-right militias, and even influenced the Oklahoma City bombing (1995).
Key operatives like Kenneth de Courcy (British intel-linked propagandist) pushed the narrative that global wars—especially in the Middle East—were fulfilling Biblical prophecy. The goal? Maintain Anglo-American hegemony under religious pretexts.
Today, many US “Christian” movements unknowingly echo this British imperial doctrine, fixated on Armageddon, Temple rebuilding, and anti-government extremism. The danger isn’t just fringe belief—it’s disguised geopolitical manipulation.
British Israelism was never just theology. It was designed as a control mechanism, repackaging empire as divine destiny. Recognizing its origins is key to understanding its modern influence—and resisting its divisive legacy.

That white people have no genuine racial or civilizational history becomes a big problem, IMO. They can define themselves as superhuman on a whim.

The Torah itself does not pretend it is revelation! The scribes who compiled it had the intellectual honesty to preserve contradictory stories and various pseudo-genealogies (made of geographical and tribal entities, most of them fictitious) as well as multiple divine names, some of which are well attested from neighbouring polytheist religions.
The main point was to replace the fertility cults and feminine deities with a violent masculinized one.

The Torah was Revelation given to the Prophet Musa (AS) and portions of which were delivered to the Israelites on the plains of Moab and later elsewhere.

History reminder:
Looming annexation and also the loss of al Aqsa Mosque.
Three weeks before October 7th The Times of Israel wrote about the end of the moratorium
on West Bank annexation. The moratorium would end three months after October 7th.
The Palestinians had to know of this.
Zionists thirsted for more and more of Palestinian land
and also threatened the al Aqsa Mosque.
https://www.timesofisrael.com/uae-envoy-de-facto-west-bank-annexation-unfolding-but-our-ability-to-stop-it-wanes/
On October 1st, October 2nd, October 3rd, October 4th and October 5th
colonists invaded and defiled the al Aqsa Mosque. The intentionally provocative message and
threat to the mosque was loud and clear.
[I do not know if they also entered the mosque on October 6th as that would have been
reported on October 7th and all news was pushed aside because of the Hamas jail break]
And this provocation did not sit in a vacuum,
Israelis wanted it all, all of Palestine.
On September 23rd, at the UN, Netanyahu brandished a map of ‘Israel’
that included it all. This was one week before the multi-day invasion of al Aqsa Mosque

As the USN continues to strike targets in Yemen, DJT protests RF attacks on civlian areas…….that is total nonsense.
RF strikes military and infrastructure targets, not civilian targets ala the IDF. UAF fires dozens of AA missiles daily and those missiles fall into civilian areas on a daily basis too.
In Yemen the US has struck civilian and military targets including a market place in the Capital causing mass casualties of the innocent. We note that 7 Reaper Drones have been shot down by the Houthis in the last week.
The US claims to be defending shipping when it is actually acting as the long range strike arm of the IDF.
Want Houthi missile strikes on shipping to cease? Then the US needs to stop the IDF strikes that have murdered over 100,000 Palestinian civilians and maimed 200,000 more according to the human rights Attorney Ralph Nader……..that is the Houthi demand.
And for the additional war crime we now have 5 weeks of embargo by the IDF on all food supplies, medical supplies and fresh water supplies…..starvation warfare by Bibi and company……

Ornot – remember the IDF nuclear policy is that only the Jewish state is allowed to acquire and possess nuclear weapons (they have 245 tactical nukes in storage in the Negev).
No one else is allowed to possess them……LOL with that.
Either the entire ME is de-nuclearized or nothing is…………..the Pakistanis already have dozens of nuke war heads, and eventually the Iranians in the short term will have them too.

Alon Mizrahi,

If you want to know how far humanity has fallen in the West, and how small and pathetic Westerners have become, consider this:
During the Nazi holocaust, there were many, many thousands of people – just normal people – who risked their life by saving and hiding Jews. Oskar Schindler became well-known for that, but there were many others. Albanian Muslims refused to cooperate with Nazi instructions concerning Jews, and saved the lives of hundreds. In France, Poland, the Netherlands, and other places, ordinary citizens were willing to put their lives and the lives of their families in danger to save Jews.
80 years later, European leaders and communities won’t dare defy Jewish lobbies as they enforce cultural compliance with openly televised genocide, including starvation, massacres, and relentless barbaric destruction of everything and everyone.
80 years ago, people resisted, joined underground movements and became partisans, and were willing to put their lives on the line for humanity. Today, people can’t even take a sharp rebuke or the fear of arrest, or a canceled contract. Reality is ‘too much’ for them, so they recede further and further into a make-believe world
The human spirit in the West has dwindled into a heap of basically nothing. Every child and idiot can be their dictator

And I promise you this: if Russia or China decided to genocide a people, or part of their population, there would be more resistance than there is in the West. The system would not be able to contain it, and many soldiers would defect or resort to sabotage and mutiny. Not in the West. The West is spiritually and mentally dead, lost in delirious, self-cancelling doubt and anxiety. A civilization of monsters and ghosts

The purpose of a culture centered on material gratification and the dissolution of family bonds, alongside the denial of a human spirit, leaves people weak and cowardly.
None of that, IMO, was by accident.
I don’t argue with militant non-believers. I pity them the same way I pitied people who double-masked when alone in their cars during COVID. Vicims of a sophisticated disinformation machine.

This is what Amos Goldberg told Le Monde about October 7. He incorporates all of the lies, and directly implies that it was Hamas, not Netanyahu that caused the destruction . This is a professor of Garbage. He is saying that although Israel has committed a genocide , this was a small mistake of emotionally reacting to a horrendous attack by Hamas.
No you arsehole, the destruction was caused by Israel’s Hannibal Directive, which pulverised Rave vehicles, Kibbutz es, and the tripe about babies and rape is total lies. Israelis are pathological liars.
” It took me time. October 7 was a shock, a tragedy, a horrendous attack. It was painful, criminal. It was of a magnitude we never experienced in Israel. Some 850 civilians [1,200 people in total] were killed in one day. Men, women, children, even babies and elderly were taken hostage. Some kibbutzim were completely destroyed. And the testimonies started flowing about cruelty, sexual violence, destruction by Hamas. I personally know people, some of them very close, affected by the attack. Some killed, some taken hostages, some barely survived. I had no words to explain the situation, to digest it, to mourn it. It was outrageous,”

Looks like a smaller scale version of what the Zionist thugs did in Amsterdam, minus the Newspeak headlines in the MSM claiming it was actually a “pogrom” against poor, innocent Jews.
This is exactly the kind of behavior enabled by the EU’s ridiculous laws on “antisemitism” and by Biden and now Trump’s ratcheting up of similar ‘rules’ of operation, whereby criticizing Zionists or Israel can get you fired or even deported to a gulag in El Salvador, but Zionist bullies and monkeys can harass, beat, spit on and dox anyone with whom they disagree with full impunity.

The originals of the Torah and Injeel or Gospels are not reliable sources of evidence, because over time they have been changed.
What makes you think that fertility goddesses were peaceful cults? Young men , choroi , were sacrificiced to fertility goddesses.
What makes you think that Islamic Monotheism worships masculinity and war? Islam doesn’t start fights . It defends itself against those who take exception to the worship of the Creator, instead of their man made statues, or Priests.
The Torah is confirmed as Revelation from God in the Qur’an. Of course the scribes who disliked its commands would not attest to its truth. Or they’d have to obey its commands.

For there to have been 3 separate, initially small, incendiary events I’m thinking it was a sabotage and terrorist act. Seems like unless timers were inserted into whatever the flammable/explosive materials were, it would require multiple co-conspirators on scene. I’m guessing MEK or MEK holdovers (which means US/UK) with some Mossad $$ or something.

Definitely Voltaire , and likely Voltairenet too, got it all wrong.
Neither of them seem to have a use for the soul. It does make it hard to understand humanity if you ignore the spiritual.
As to the explosions in Iran, Iran is probably crawling with USUKIS spies.
It’s on a north south and East west , continental cross roads. Shades of pagers in these explosions?

Journalist Suhaib Al-Masalma has a summary also, note it includes “Israeli” propaganda etc.
“Summary of Netanyahu’s speech:
We were unable to continue the peace agreements because part of the Arab world was working against us, including the Palestinians.
The biggest obstacle to peace is the Palestinians’ refusal to recognize the Jewish state.
The refusal to recognize the Jewish state is the cause of the conflict that has existed in the region for 100 years.
Establishing a Palestinian state is a ridiculous idea, and we saw what the Palestinian state brought in Gaza.
The Palestinians do not want to establish a state alongside Israel, but rather a state within Israel.
The normalization agreements that pleased us were met by Iran’s attempts to change the Arab world and turn it against us.
Iran committed to destroying Israel because it prevents it from controlling the Middle East.
We are trying to recover the remaining survivors of our hostages and the bodies of the dead from Gaza.
Peace with Egypt and Jordan was not normalization between peoples, but with governments.
We decided to bypass the Palestinians and speak directly with Arab capitals about peace.
We were unable to continue the peace agreements because part of the Arab world was working against us, including the Palestinians. The biggest obstacle to peace is the Palestinians’ refusal to recognize the Jewish state.
The refusal to recognize the Jewish state is the cause of the ongoing conflict in the region.
Sinwar’s carefully prepared plan was for them to launch successive invasions against us from Gaza and Lebanon, but we stopped all of that.
Pressure was exerted on us at various stages by the Americans not to enter Gaza.
The Biden administration threatened to cut off our weapons if we entered Gaza, but we told them we are not a satellite state. The misleading media says we target civilians in Gaza.
We caused a horrific shock to Hezbollah by blowing up pagers. Within hours we destroyed weapons and missiles that Hezbollah had been preparing for 30 years.
We decided not to inform the Americans about targeting Nasrallah except when our fighter jets were in the air before carrying out the operation.
Some people are truly irreplaceable, and Nasrallah is one of them, and we killed him.
The Bashar al-Assad regime in Syria collapsed because it did not receive support from anyone, and we occupied the summit of Mount Hermon.
Hamas will not remain in Gaza, and we will not replace it with the Palestinian Authority. We will control the region militarily.
I welcome President Trump’s plan that allows for voluntary evacuation from Gaza.
President Trump pledged not to allow Iran to obtain a nuclear weapon.
Iran will not obtain a nuclear weapon.”

The Palestinian resistance released a video showing the rescue of Israeli hostages trapped under debris caused by an Israeli airstrike on the very location where they were being held. The footage documents how some hostages were buried alive, and how at least one was rescued and provided with oxygen as he responded to first aid.
This powerful film should deeply shake Israeli society, offering undeniable evidence that their own army’s bombardments are endangering and killing Israeli hostages, an event that has occurred more than once.
It also reinforces a growing perception: that the Israeli government, already widely seen as indifferent to the welfare of its citizens over the past year and a half, prefers risking the death of all hostages rather than negotiating their release.

Ornot’s summary of Netanyahu’s lies.
‘The Palestinians do not want to establish a state alongside Israel, but rather a state within Israel.’
The Israelis do not want to
establish a state alongside Palestine, but rather a state within Palestine.
Palestine strangely enough belongs to the Palestinians.
It doesn’t matter whose interests were served by the extermination of the Palestinians, the British, the US or the Jews. It does matter who is exterminating them because they will face trial for their genocides, as indeed Turkey and Saudi Arabia will also face trial for their genocide of Alawites and Yazidis.
Saudi Arabia’s idea to use US military power to eradicate members of sects that oppose Sunni Islam is the main reason ‘Quid pro quo’ that in return Israel has been given tacit approval by Sunni Islam to genocide Palestinians.
Netanyahu’s brain is fxxxed and his life is fxxxed. Whether he is tried in this life or the next, he will certainly tell the court that Political Islam helped him in his genocide of the peoples of Sham.

Trying to figure out how the mightiest army in the middle east is running out of troops after more than a year of fighting women and children from the air:

The Israeli army has announced that it will extend mandatory service by four months due to a growing manpower crisis, coinciding with an intensification of battles in Gaza and the resurgence of deadly resistance operations against invading troops.
The additional four months will be classified as reserve duty, allowing soldiers to complete a total of three years of military service. The military will also cancel pre-release leave for soldiers. Troops will have to serve a full three years before being discharged.

— source: https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/israel-extends-compulsory-service-manpower-crisis-plagues-army
You can doubt the resistance reports of IDF casualty figures all you want, but if you have half a brain (talking to you, ED4):
If just a few hundred IDF had been killed and just a few hundred IDF had been maimed, we would not be hearing a whisper about IDF manpower issues.

The only way you get to this point is if you are losing thousands of IDF ‘soldiers’ killed and tens of thousands wounded.

If you’re sitting around like an ass, asking for “hard numbers”, you’re not going to get them from the IDF, and you’re not going to get anything from the AQB because they just “kill and move on”.

You’ve got to step back and look at the informational structure of the situation to understand what’s really going on.

What’s really going in is that the IDF took a beating in Lebanon and Gaza. A beating in the range of tens of thousands, because tens of thousands is what it takes to have a military of around 200 000 strong having manpower issues.
You don’t start having manpower problems if you’ve just lost a few thousand. Even 10 000 casualties is not enough to put a 200000 strong military in crisis.
The IDF is lying about their casualties – and yet they’ve only murdered themselves through 10% of the Gazan population.
At this rate, if the IDF objective is complete eradication of the population, it’s on track to a defeat.
Unless:

Starvation becomes their preferred tool of genocide. Which means that we’re about to see a concerted attempt to mass-starve the entire population of Gaza because the IDF, IAF are unable to complete the task.

If the West, and it’s Sunni Muslim Mannequins had any of those vaunted “Western Values” left, they’d break the starvation siege. If the siege is broken, israel is defeated.

USUKIS and Saidis and Muslim Brothethood have done a dirty deal that exchanges Israel’s genocide for a long series of future genocides in Asia by Political Islam.
Huguenot Protestants in France were once the educated middle class, and they were ethically cleansed by a combination of Roman Catholic dogmatic opposition to Protestantism and the Feudal aristocracy.
The Islam of the Palestinians, who have been persecuted for 80 years by USUKIS, represents a threat both to the secular USUKIS zionists and the ancient Sunni Resistance against colonialism who have opposed European Colonial powers like France and Britain for centuries in Syria , Egypt, Saudi Arabia and India , have swapped sides.
Since 9/11 , since Usama bin Laden, that Axis of Sunni Resistance has collaborated with the US , first against European Colonial power, and now against the Shi’a Axis of Resistance against colonialism.
Sunni Islam hasn’t lifted a fjnger for Palestine, but instead used the fog of war to break the Shi’a Axis of Resistance against Israel. It has taken 18 months of genocide for Palestine to secure new allies in Russia and China after being betrayed by Sunni Islam.
The carrot offered to Sunni Islam is a USUKIS alliance to wage jihad against the Russian Federation and China, much of which are Muslim.
Palestine is one of many coming betrayals by Sunni Islam of Muslims who don’t conform to their interpretation of Islam. You will overdose on popcorn, but you will never be explained anything by Political Islam. It prefers its new , huggy relationship with USUKIS to communicating with ordinary people.

Political Islam cites the Qur’an not to spy, which tompolitical Islam means to not explain what or why they are doing whatvtheyvare doing, but just to zap the people they disagree with , communists or sufis or Buddhists , with USUKIS military force. Aka HTS.
There is something intensely unfair and unIslamic about Zapping people you disagree with without warning or explanation. I do understand that South Asia was itself zapped in the two centuries after the time of our prophet SAW, without warning or explanation.
Hence South Asisn Muslims see nothing wrong with zapping using US Colonial power on false pretexts and without warning. South Asian Islam is what we mostly have in Europe. Somalis and East Europeans who have recently been zapped without warning or explanation by Political Islam see Political Islam as big spies for US colonialism.
But this is where we are. I hear the verses of the Qur’an which are used to justify the US zapping mentality of US excepionalism. But I agree with the Somalis that it is evil, Impetialistic and disgusting .
We live in a political world , not an idealist world. The countries like Kurdistan who asked the West for intervention against Western Dictator Saddam Hussain have sold their oil for nothing in exchange for a peace that is constantly threatened by Western Imperialism.
The US intends to bulldoze a path from Isrsel to the Pacific using what Netanyahu teasingly calls the ‘ Libya solution ‘. Of course that means imposing. So- called Sunni Islamic Dictatorships instead of semi- Independent ones like Saddam, Gadaffi and soon, Iran.
But greed mixed with opportunity are the whiskey of the Muslim. Whoever thinks they are serving God , while in reality serving Western Imperialism is on strong intoxication. And no, I don’t wish this intoxication on either the participants , nor the victims.
It will be Gaza repeated over and over
again, unless Russia and China establish an alternative UN to stop them.

Important op-ed at today’s New York Times by Peter Beinart: “Trump Doesn’t Want to Protect All Jewish Students — Just Those on His Team”. Details how Zionist Jews (ADL, et al.) in America are attempting to marginalize any Jews who oppose Zionism. Effectively, the Zionists want to equate ‘Being Jewish’ with ‘Being Zionist’. Jewish college students who support Palestine are being disciplined, suspended, or expelled, along with Jewish faculty who oppose Zionism. Universities are following the dictates of the Zionists.

It would be interesting if the Iranian response to the port bombing was to declare war on Israel. I know Israel is trying to provoke a response. Also aware of Alex Krainer’s point that Israel needs an external enemy to unite against. However if Iran has the ability to end Israel as a functioning modern state, then what benefit is such unity?
This would be calling Trump’s bluff – operating on the assumption America can no longer fight any major wars. The USA would have to sit by while Iran defeated Israel or get involved and endanger all their bases, plus their reputation as the omnipotent military power.
This madness – including the threat to Iran – will continue as long as the US dollar(backed by $35 trillion in debt) is perceived to have value. There will be no peace in the world while the American economic system(Ponzi scheme?) keeps functioning. How to end it?
The Chinese, Russians and Iranians appear to be waiting, hoping the system collapses itself. But how does that happen? What will break confidence in the system? A system which every citizen in the western world relies upon and doesn’t want to collapse. Seems to me this can only happen with the shock of a military defeat. Iran taking out Israel could do it. Handing the US military losses no westerner can psychologically handle would certainly do it.
Otherwise the torture continues. “Use it or lose it”. If only Syria had listened to Arch. Who will be the next failed state? Iran? It needs to be the USA, for the sake of the rest of the planet.

@IsaacALawyer
A young French man was heavily influenced by the government’s racist and sectarian incitement against Muslims, It ended with him brutally stabbing a Muslim worshipper fifty times on a Friday, proudly declaring, “I did it, damn his God!”
Now, some might object to calling it “sectarian incitement” coming from a supposedly secular government, But the truth is, French secularism has evolved into a kind of radical sectarian ideology that openly targets religion, and sometimes, very selectively. The government has been particularly aggressive toward Muslims under the pretext of fighting so-called “political Islam,” even though most Muslims in France have little interest in political representation. All they want is to be left alone, to practice their faith freely, just like followers of other religions.
What’s even more telling is the clear double standard, the French government and its officials wouldn’t dare criticize Jewish practices, not their religious garments, not their kosher slaughtering methods, not even their deeply controversial circumcision rituals, or the more extreme teachings found in the Talmud, which often clash with both secular and universal human rights principles. Yet when it comes to Muslims, the gloves come off.

It is genocidal Israel not Iran that is desperate here. Iran only needs to wait and like China wins by default. The clownish take that Iran should strike Israel in full force thereby forfeiting the immense advantages of its geography and defensive war is the kind of imbecilic ‘plan’ that gets cooked up in whatever passes for the strategic nerve centers of the Western military octopus.
Yes I’m sure you and your fellow traveller’s would love Iran to ‘use it’ just like you would like Russia to stop slow-roasting Americas testicles through the SMO.

You’re not thinking it through to the end.
Years if sanctions, assassinations, bombings, terrorism, regime change planners, infiltration and removal of all of Irans ally’s will in the end, destroy Iran anyways. As said Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, Ukraine.
There is ZERO probability that the US goes calmly into that long good-night of Empire decline. A World War is imminent. The terrorism has, and will continue to increase globally. Terrorism unchecked is far worse than a head on war. So far, it is unchecked, and all these nations sitting on their hands about it, with zero retaliation, only invites more attacks.
War is the price paid for checking power with the West.
Force is all the West understands.
The notion of some global “multipolar” win-win war by “waiting for the Empire to crumble” is a delusion.
This port attack is a full on BRICS attack. But looking like another “hear no evil, see no evil” bury the head in the sand by the BRICS nations and pretend it didn’t happen, inviting further attacks.
But sure, the Empire will just melt and crumble away, why ruin this “good thing” Iran has now.

Israel will not attend the hearings on the UNWRA ban at the ICJ:
—————-
We might not get a detailed look at what Israel’s defence is until some way down the line, because of its absence from the proceedings here in our coverage over the next five days or so.
We are not going to hear from an Israeli representative standing up in the court behind me and arguing Israel’s case.
They have submitted written advice and objections, but they won’t be participating in the actual verbal proceedings here.
However, we do have some idea of what they might be saying, because in the UK last week, lawyers representing Israel said in a paper that it had a right to terminate the agreement with UNRWA and ban the agency’s activities on its sovereign territory, especially in wartime.

US and its minions, strikes in Yemen.
“Nearly 70 inmates were killed and more than 50 others wounded in an US airstrike on Sa’ada governorate’s detention center in Yemen, according to reports.
Al-Masirah news network reported on Monday that the airstrikes targeted one of the detention centers designated for African migrants within the facility located in the city. The center held approximately 115 African inmates, but the number of casualties is still unclear.
Yemeni officials say the repeated US military airstrikes on the Arab Peninsula country are triggering a large-scale oil spill in the Red Sea, issuing a stark warning about an imminent environmental disaster for the whole region.
The officials said the daunting prospect could unleash catastrophic consequences for the fragile marine ecosystem and global trade.
According to the authorities, US attacks on critical civilian infrastructure had severely damaged oil facilities along the Yemeni coast, particularly the Ras Isa oil terminal in the western province of al-Hudaydah.”

All the Palestinians inside Israel proper the west bank and gaza, in lebanon and jordan and syria would be better off if they all migrated en mass to Ukraine and the new Russian oblasts there. Russia is very short of workers, builders farmers and good fighters etc

United Nations special rapporteur, has called for a halt to arms sales to the Israeli regime.
“The United Nations special rapporteur has called for a halt to arms sales to the Israeli regime, which has been committing genocide in Gaza since October 2023.
Israel and the states that supply it with weapons “must be stopped,” Francesca Albanese tweeted on Sunday.
The special rapporteur for the occupied Palestinian territory called for an end to the continued transfer of Western-made arms and munitions to Israeli forces.
“Seriously, how many children, along with their parents and grandparents, we must witness being starved, burned alive, or gathered into plastic bags after Western-manufactured bombs have shattered them?” she said in the social media post.
Several Western countries have continued to supply lethal weapons to the Israeli regime despite the enormous human toll caused by its war on the Palestinian territory.
The United States is the Israeli regime’s closest ally and main supplier of arms and ammunition.
Washington has provided the bulk of weaponry used by Israel, including 2,000-pound bunker buster bombs.”

William 1066 – stop talking like an IDF tool, the Palestinians have far more rights to their farmland, homes, orchards and businesses in Palestinian than do most Jews who appeared in Palestine in the post WWII era and promptly expropriated Palestinian properties.
These expropriated lands need to be returned to their rightful owners….the Palestinian people!

A British firm is supplying engines for Israel’s newest generation of killer drones.
“We [were] operating on children who would say: ‘I was lying on the ground after a bomb had dropped and this quadcopter came down and hovered over me and shot me’”
Israeli quadcopters have also been used to broadcast the sound of crying babies in order to lure Palestinians out of their homes and onto the killing fields.
RCV Engines admitted in 2022 that it had been granted an export licence exemption to ship its equipment worldwide, suggesting that its exports to Israel might not be subject to the Labour government’s recent arms restrictions.”

WRT the ICJ proceedings:
Oct 28 2024, Knesset passes two bills into law banning/restricting UNRWA. (I looked for roll call votes and text of the law but failed)
Dec 19, 2024 Norway gets agenda item 123 on the General Assembly agenda and it passes, this requires an ICJ hearing which began today
Hearings at ICJ are all this week. Notably, US will open Wednesday, followed by Russia.
Today Palestine presented morning and most of afternoon, then Egypt and Malaysia.
Al Jazeera reported that Israel will not attend the hearing but will send documents. I am seeking a way to get those documents.
Rather than fight multiple URLs I decided to just share a zip file. It contains the UN General Assembly resolution passed on Dec 19 (232), the roll call vote (PV.54) and the ICJ schedule for this week. There is also a text file with urls and text describing same.

The Islamic world seems too shy to question the torah and gospels canons although its own theologians and its own sacred scriptures mention the falsification of the previous scriptures. In fact this falsification was already a topic of anathema between jews themselves about the torah, and between christian themselves about their scriptures.
Now, under protestant influence and disregarding european history with humanism and enlightment, western politicians of so called christian background (rather a culture and an identity on which they try to capitalize…in votes), are pretending that Erasmus did not exist and that in order to save the new testament and christian cultural products we should consider the old testament as divine (by the way, chatgpt says so).
Doing so they ignore 150 years of research that has demonstrated 1) that the few historical people mentioned in the torah that are attested for the 9th c bc were polytheist and that the region was still polytheist and multicultural around 400bc; 2) that the priestly class once monotheized under persian influence around that time or under the ptolemies invented a glorious past by compiling mesopotamian, cananean and egyptian stories and myths; 3) that the various layers of the torah show the nihilist fight of a group wishing to exterminate anyone who disagrees with the theocracy in power, ultimately represented by the maccabees.
Allowing the modern isr gov in having a death cult running thousands of sects under various denominations all over the world is a recipe for disaster. What kind of politics is supposed to emerge from theocracies contaminated from within by financial interests? It is only the formerly colonized people who see clearly what kind of abuse have been made under the pretense of civilization and with religion as an incitement.

Muslims suffer from the same disease as Zionist (Evangelical, Charismatic) Christians do: The perception that the Jews are the chosen people of Yahweh.
Muslims (Sunni Muslims at least), are effectively Muslim Zionists.
Even the wisest of their scholars are infected with this brain disease, the symptoms of which are:
1. Believing that modern Christians and Jews are “people of the book” (though none of these nations are descendants of the original Bani Isra’il!)
2. Believing that the current occupiers of Palestine deserve at least the partial right to live in Palestine (because they are those to whom Yahweh promised this right so long as they remain faithful.)
Being infected with this brain-rot they are unable to see that there are no Christian nations left in the West (only individuals) and that the Jews of today are a Pharisaic cult.
Islam holds within it a kill switch installed by the cultists who influenced its development.

I didn’t arrive at faith casually or from my family. I have always been a seeker. I was raised Anglican, went to Catholic school, and sat with a Hindu master and met the Dalai Lama when I was young.
I am where I am due to reason, and I constantly test my faith with reason, which Islam promotes (asking questions about the faith), which was a big sign to me that it is the right path.
I think you’re a believer of a sort. You can see evil and want to fight/resist it. There are many American Christians who cannot identify evil or even raise an eyebrow at it while performing many of the rituals of faith.
Brother, I do not doubt that you and I would get on famously offline.

RE: …”Arch, please, Iran will NOT start WWIII. That is what you are advocating.”
Excuse me… exactly who started WW3??…it wasn’t Iran.
WW3 is here. Waiting for nukes to fall or something?
Wake up. Open Genocide, terrorist acts in many nations, attempted & confirmed assassinations, trade war mafia style, sanctions, embargoes, cyber warfare & cults gaining global power.
Yet you suggest “Iran” will “start” WW3 by responding to terrorist & genocidal attacks in their Nation.
Russia has hoodwinked you all with “fear” nuke crap they’ve used to slow mo every response.
The problem the Russia & China (and others) have, is they want to see the U.S./West knee capped. Brought to the “global table” as “equals” but they don’t want the “global SYSTEM” destroyed.
Well, forget about it. The West built the current “system”, and they honestly entertain ideas of playing in the sandbox the West built by the rules the West made up believing that total destruction of both isn’t necessary for a enlightened & cooperative global order.
If this continues unchecked, all nations will become Gaza.
It’s already spreading ie Syria- Lebanon – Haiti – Somalia
But sure, keep worrying about “nukes”…
