Why is it that Israel always "Must" do something?
Israel was urged by the US State Department to be completely “transparent” on an airstrike at a central Gaza school, which was said to have allegedly killed at least 35 people.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced in a statement that they had carried out a “precise strike on a Hamas compound embedded inside” the school. It was a Hamas command center planning attacks. The US State Department asserted that Israel should identify the “Hamas fighters”. (Why? The US was fighting Al Qaeda terrorists, but Israel is fighting “Hamas fighters”? How often did the US army report the identity of terrorists it killed in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria? Israel is not a European ghetto anymore, and not the US’s sub-servant state!)
Previous AP News reports have shown that “Hamas, Gaza’s ruling authority, exerts control over the Health Ministry” and the terrorist group distinguishes the number of fatalities and injuries, so death toll numbers have been labelled as Hamas disinformation in prior incidents.
Hamas “operates inside and underneath hospitals, and is using them for military operations, including as command centers, weapons stores, and to hide hostages. The Israelis have released footage they say is evidence of those Hamas operations,” even according to CNN.
The US Warns Israel Against War in Lebanon
The Biden administration cautioned Israel against "a limited war" in Lebanon. The exchange of fire between Israel and Hezbollah since Hamas' Oct. 7 terrorist attack has revved up over the past two weeks. (What would the US do to Cuba if it fired hundreds rockets at Florida?)
Biden does not Like Hearing the Truth
The White House cancelled a high-level US-Israel meeting on Iran that was scheduled for Thursday after Netanyahu released a video claiming the US was withholding military aid. Some Israeli officials were already on their way to Washington when the meeting was cancelled. (Pretending that business as usual does not work. Israel must do what is necessary in Gaza, Lebanon and Iran. There will be no help from Biden!)
US Senator Jim Risch, ranking member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, calls on the Biden administration to release aid to Israel: “It is past time the administration to formally notify the F-15 and ammunition sales and remove its existing hold on precision guided munitions.
Micromanagement of Israel’s war on terror must end – let’s get out of the way. By signalling to terrorists that American support for Israel is conditional, we encourage Hamas to protract the war in Gaza, furthering risk to civilians, and incentivize Hezbollah to continue its attacks on Israel from the North.”
President Joe Biden announced the generous aid package totalling more than $400 million for humanitarian relief in the Gaza Strip, ignoring concern that the funds will be seized by the Hamas terror group.
The Biden administration also hasn’t moved forward with the sale of a fleet of F-15 jet fighters to Israel, even after congressional leaders agreed to allow the major weapons deal to proceed last month. The $18 billion sale of 50 warplanes is one of the largest arms deals with Israel in recent years.
The US Arms Shipments Decreased by 50%
US officials confirm that there has been a decline in the number of arms shipments from the US to Israel in recent months. In the first part of the war, about 240 shipments of weapons were delivered to Israel. In recent months, only 120 shipments have been delivered; decreased by 50%.
Food for Thought by Steven Shamrak
For years, the Lebanese government has done nothing to stop Hezbollah aggression against Israel. And the ‘Useless Nothing’ has never enforced its own resolution. The UNIFIL has been facilitating Hezbollah activities in the south of Lebanon. Israel has only the one choice left. In any case, ‘THEY’ will blame Jewish state anyway.
Thousands of Lebanese are fleeing the country over fears that a war between Israel and Hezbollah could lead to the collapse of the state. More than 100,000 residents who have left the country, especially in the last few days. The Hezbollah terror group has been targeting Israeli military assets and communities along the border for eight months, killing some 19 Israeli soldiers and 11 Israeli civilians and wounding dozens more.
Hezbollah Store Massive Arsenal at Beirut Airport
Hezbollah is storing massive amounts of Iranian weapons at Lebanon’s main civilian airport in Beirut. The weapons being stored at the airport are a variety of missiles and explosives, including the Iranian Falaq unguided artillery rockets, Fateh-110 short-range missiles, road-mobile ballistic missiles and M-600 missiles with ranges from more than 150 to 200 miles. In addition, Hezbollah has also reportedly stored laser-guided AT-14 Kornet anti-tank guided missiles (ATGMs), short-range Burkan ballistic missiles and RDX (Royal Demolition explosive), also known as cyclonite or hexagon.
Are Israel-Arabs Enemies within?
Some 14.7% of Israel-Arabs believe the Hamas terrorist group should govern Gaza after the war. That represents approximately 308,700 Israeli citizens out of an Israeli Arab population of around 2.1 million. In contrast, just 8.4% of Arab Israelis say that Israel should govern the Gaza Strip after the war. More than half the Israeli-Arab public, 51.6%, say that there is a shared sense of destiny that has been created by the Israel-Hamas war. (Is it the pro-Israel ‘destiny’ they shared or Hamas’s one?)
The International Committee of the Red Cross said 22 people were killed in a shell attack Friday that damaged its office in the Gaza Strip. The ICRC did not say who fired the “heavy calibre projectiles”. An army spokesman said there was “no indication” the attack was launched by the Israel Defense Forces. (Most news reports implied that it was the IDF fault, ignoring that a high percentage of mortar and rockets fired by Hamas failed or misfired.)
Iran Expanding Production of Enriched Uranium
Iran is set to triple or even quadruple its uranium enrichment capacity at Fordow, one of the country's most secretive nuclear facilities. This will provide Tehran with new options for rapidly building a nuclear arsenal if it so chooses. The expansion of the facility could allow Iran to accumulate enough nuclear material for several bombs each month. For two years now, Iran has been enriching uranium to 60% purity. The IAEA chief Rafael Grossi has stated that uranium of this purity has no obvious civilian use. It would be “a matter of weeks,” experts say, if Iran decided to go from 60 to 90 percent that is required for making a nuclear weapon.
Talks with Hezbollah have Failed
US special envoy Amos Hochstein, travelled to Beirut where he met with caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati and Hezbollah-linked Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri, announced that his efforts to prevent an all-out war between Lebanon’s Iranian proxy, Hezbollah, and the State of Israel, have failed. Israel has repeatedly warned that its military forces will push Hezbollah’s terrorist army back across the Litani River, according to the UN Resolution 1701, if diplomatic efforts fail to do so. Hezbollah has never complied with the directives in the agreement, nor has the Lebanese Army, which was tasked with enforcing the agreement together with UNIFIL.
The $320 Million Biden’s Pier 'Farce' Failed
The America-built pier off the coast of Gaza that was meant to facilitate the provision of additional humanitarian aid into the Strip has failed in its mission. The pier cost to the US taxpayers $320 million to construct. Touted by the US President Joe Biden, during his 2024 State of the Union address, as the means to “enable a massive increase in the amount of humanitarian assistance getting into Gaza every day.” The UN found ‘No Supporting Evidence’ of famine in Northern Gaza. The pier has only operated 10 days out of the month.
The UNRWA’s Aid Trucks are Looted
UNRWA has been unable to use a route opened by the IDF to facilitate the entry of humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip because Gazans have been looting the aid trucks, a UN official said. More than 60 commercial trucks were able to use the route in question yesterday. Israel has accused the UN of failing to act to bring in as much aid as Israel is allowing into Gaza. (What country has supplied its enemies during a war? And yet, Israel is blamed for ‘hunger’ in Gaza, while Hamas is stealing aid; and for ‘innocent civilian’ casualties, while the 'Useless Nothing' doesn’t remove the civilian population from the war zone to Egypt.)
Hamas Recruiting Young Terrorists
Hamas has appealed to 18-year-old youths to join the ranks of the military wing and has started training and preparation for those who have recently joined its ranks. The terrorists that Hamas is trying to recruit are meant to replace around 14,000 terrorists that Israel has eliminated so far in the war, and many thousands more who were injured.
Quote of the Week:
“This business of destroying Hamas, making Hamas disappear – it’s simply throwing sand in the eyes of the public. Hamas is an idea; Hamas is a party. It’s rooted in the hearts of the people – whoever thinks we can eliminate Hamas is wrong.” - Daniel Hagari, Israel Defense Forces spokesman – The government of Israel does not mislead the public, only the international Jew-haters. The goal is remaining the same – destroy the military wing of Hamas, and remove the enemy population from the Jewish land, who have killing of Jews as the prime objective! The NAZI-ism was also an idea. The Nazi Germany was defeated, and they are no longer dangerous. The Fake Palestinians are the spiritual descendants of the Nazis. Arabic copies of Mein Kampf are found in many homes in Gaza.
The 'Civilian Casualties' in Gaza?
by Vivian Bercovici
It was early Saturday afternoon when the messages started coming. Like rapid fire. “Four hostages have been rescued. Alive.” Their names were released: Noa Argamani, Andrei Kozlov, Shlomi Ziv and Almog Meir Jan.
Noa Argamani has become something of an iconic figure, having been captured on a video of her abduction on October 7 that went viral globally.
Noa’s captors were “civilians,” and told her that she was “lucky” to have been placed with them. Among the family members who imprisoned her was a journalist and a physician. “Civilians,” we are told.
The three male hostages were held together in another “civilian” apartment, 200 metres from Argamani’s prison.
Within moments of the entry into the “civilian apartments,” scores of Hamas terrorists opened fire on the Israelis with machine guns and RPGs. There are reports of many civilian casualties. How many remains unclear. It is surreal reading statement after statement from UN officials and media personalities asserting with confidence that 200, 300, 400 civilians were killed in the operation, many of them children. ('Correct' account is done almost immediately by Hamas, and as usual reported without questioning! There is no interest in the actual numbers that were released later.)
These numbers are pulled out of thin air. They are “compiled” by the Hamas Ministry of Health. In an area that was and is clearly crawling with heavily armed people dressed as civilians, how, exactly, does one define “civilian”? Is a physician who imprisons a hostage in his home a “civilian”? Or is he a terrorist accomplice?
How, also, does the Hamas Ministry of Health determine so quickly - within hours of the rescue operation - whether it was Hamas or Israeli fire that caused so many deaths?
The homes of civilians are guarded by dozens, perhaps hundreds, of heavily armed terrorists. Civilians, in my universe, also do not typically lock up hostages in their homes. Why is the west pretending that the terrorists are innocents? (The answer is obvious, isn't it?)
There are NO Innocent 'Palestinians'
A public opinion poll conducted by the Palestinian Center for Survey Research led by Dr. Khalil Shikaki reveals that 66 percent expressed support for the October 7 attack against Israel, and half of the respondents believe that Hamas will return to power in the Gaza Strip after the war. A full 96% of the respondents denied the massacre in the Gaza envelope and claimed that Hamas terrorists did not commit atrocities against Israeli civilians on October 7. Another 73% believe that Hamas made the right decision in launching the attack and 79% of the respondents believe that Hamas will win the war! (They are ALL complicit to the horror of the October 7 attack.)
