• Big Pharma’s Dirty Medical Journal Secret | The Daily Dose
    10 shocking stories the media buried today.

    The Vigilant Fox

    #10 - Big Pharma is secretly “ghostwriting” articles in top medical and oncology journals to trick doctors into buying their drugs.

    Here’s how the scam works:

    First, pharma pays companies big money to ghostwrite studies that look legit.

    Then, they approach doctors, offering them prestige in exchange for slapping their names on these ghostwritten studies.

    Once published in top medical journals, these articles deceive other doctors into prescribing their drugs, believing the results are authentic.

    This scheme tricks doctors into promoting treatments based on false research, driving up drug sales while putting patients at risk.

    Watch Dr. Russell Blaylock explain. The “conspiracy theorists” were right again.

    #9 - The Current CIA Director Visited Epstein’s Apartment Multiple Times

    Bill Burns has some explaining to do.

    “This is not a theory.” This really happened, says Michael Schellenberger.

    Burns met with Epstein multiple times in 2014, years after Epstein's conviction for s*x crimes.

    Surprise, surprise. Bill Gates also met with Epstein so many times that people have lost count.

    In a PBS interview, when questioned about his association with Epstein, Bill Gates looked uncomfortably “guilty,” Schellenberger observed.

    "Is there a lesson to be learned?" PBS asked. "Well, he's dead," Gates oddly answered. “So, in general, you always have to be careful.”

    Schellenberger says he's about 95% sure Epstein was running a s*x blackmail operation.

    And Bill Gates and the current CIA director held multiple meetings with this guy.

    #7 - A massive UK study of 1.7 million kids has found that myocarditis and pericarditis only occurred in children who received COVID-19 injections.

    According to the study, “Zero cases of myocarditis or pericarditis were found in the unvaccinated group.”

    The study, led by Oxford University’s Professor Colm D Andrews., was released as a preprint in the MedRxiv journal.

    The researchers confirmed that, despite widespread vaccination efforts, "the virus did not put children at risk of death or the need for emergency care, hospitalization, or critical care."

    The study found that COVID-19 vaccines offered little long-term protection, as many children caught the virus just 14 to 15 weeks after getting the shot.

    The “conspiracy theorists” warned parents years ago that the COVID shots were all risk and no reward. Now, they've been proven true once again.

    BONUS #1 - Vaccines are the real cause of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, and the government has been covering it up for decades, one doctor says.

    The term SIDS itself, according to @MidwesternDoc, is a euphemism used to cover up vaccine-related deaths.

    One disturbing study found that two-thirds of infants who died of SIDS had been vaccinated with the DPT vaccine prior to death. Of those, 6.5% died within 12 hours of vaccination, 13% within 24 hours, and 26% within three days.

    Dr. William Torch, the author of the study, concluded, “DPT vaccination may be a generally unrecognized major cause of sudden infant and early childhood death, and that the risks of immunization may outweigh its potential benefits.”

    @MidwesternDoc claims there is a century of evidence to suggest vaccines cause SIDS, but the government has continuously worked to suppress such findings.

    One of those efforts has been the removal of vaccine-related death classifications in the ICD system in 1979. This change made it impossible for doctors to officially attribute infant deaths to vaccines, further obscuring the true cause of SIDS.

    "The children who died from SIDS and their parents deserve recognition and justice," says @MidwesternDoc.

    "Infants cannot speak up for themselves. When you observe these vaccine injuries and the trauma they experience, it’s very apparent what happened."

  • EXPOSED – Klaus Schwab’s NAZI Roots: Anyone Shocked?
    On July 17, 2021 By Geri Ungurean
    From adarapress.com

    Klaus Schwab and wife portrait
    Schwab’s family company, Escher Wyss, exploited slave labor and Allied POWs, manufactured key nuclear bomb-making technologies for Adolf Hitler.

    Schwab’s hometown—Ravensburg, Germany—was the first German city to practice eugenics (killing “useless eaters”)

    Ravensburg was a transport hub for stolen Nazi gold to the Swiss Bank for International Settlements run by Pilgrims Society spies Allan W. Dulles (later C.I.A. director, 1953-61), Edwin W. Pauley (Allied reparations) and William J. Donovan, director of the OSS (MI6-controlled precursor to the C.I.A.—Dulles’ boss)

    Schwab’s family company, Escher Wyss, exploited slave labor and Allied POWs, manufactured key nuclear bomb-making technologies for Adolf Hitler and South Africa, sold Swiss flame throwers to the Nazis, and was named a National Socialist Model Company by Adolf Hitler

    Schwab’s Escher Wyss company was protected not only by Hitler, but by Switzerland, Britain and America—making Schwab a criminal foreign meddler in every sense


    KLAUS’ HIDDEN NAZI PAST

    Klaus’ mainstream media and academia propagandists have hidden his Nazi past in a blizzard of awards, WEF programs, ghost-written books, speeches, interviews, honorary professorships and doctorates from all over the world.

    AFI researchers have dubbed Klaus “old sourpuss” because he almost never smiles. Now we know why. He knows he is a fraud—a circus barker who grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth whose heart has nothing good to share with the world.

    C.I.A. archive documents show that Escher-Wyss and Sulzer were being directed by the U.S. Department of Energy and the State Department. This would logically mean that Klaus Schwab was a triple-agent, working simultaneously for: (1) the CIA-MI6-UN British-Americans Pilgrims Society, (2) Nazis (now Germany) and (3) Switzerland.

    Do we really want a triple-agent lying spy running the “Great Reset” and “Build Back Better?”

    Third, Escher-Wyss was one of the largest employers in Ravensburg, Germany.

    Fourth, Escher-Wyss was the first city in Nazi German to practice eugenics principles to murder “useless eaters” emerging from the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute (something like the National Institute of Health in the US, or Tavistock Institute in the UK).

    Fifth, contrary to the propaganda stories about Ravensburg’s lack of war-making industries (as the reason why the Allies did not bomb the city and its Escher-Wyss industry), we discovered many Ravensburg unconfessed sins surrounding the Schwab’s and Escher-Wyss.

    Besides parts for ships, airplanes, submarines and power plants, Escher-Wyss brokered flame throwers built in their Zurich plant and sold to the Nazis. This information comes from the U.S. Archives. This would have been handled by Eugen Schwab with a then about 5-year old Klaus at his side. They also supplied turbines, compressors and propellers for Nazi ships and submarines, as well as gas turbines for powering the war machine, in addition to their nuclear technology.

    Escher-Wyss exploited slave labor (Jewish, Russian, Gypsy, homosexual, Hungarian, Romanian, Polish ), as well as Allied POWs. Being a National Socialists Model Company, this would certainly have included Dr. Josef Mengele’s biological war crimes (“The Angel of Death”).

    KLAUS & HILDE’S INTERLOCKING COMPANIES EMPLOY OVER 50,000 TODAY—ALL FED BY WEF INSIDER TRADING

    Escher Wyss today operates under numerous re branded names including Andritz AG and Sulzer AG. These companies are poised to profit enormously from the priorities reflected in Klaus Schwab’s so-called “Great Reset,” including hydropower, plasma turbines, nuclear power, materials science, nuclear weapons, oil and gas, coal, bio fuel, paper, food, robotics, artificial intelligence, financing, patents, pharmaceuticals and more.

    Historically, the first (IBM) punch card machine readers, sometimes called Hollerith machines, were first manufactured by companies like Escher-Wyss and Sulzer who specialized in textile machines in the 1880s. Punched cards were used to created different patters on textile machines, as well as in player pianos. Other names in this business were Semyon Korsakov (ca. 1805); Charles Babbage (ca. 1855); Herman Hollerith (ca. 1880); The Tabulating Machine Company (ca. 1910), including Dehomag (Deutsche Hollerith-Maschinen GmbH, IBM Germany); and Computing-Tabulating-Recording Company (1911, renamed IBM).

    Note: IBM International president Jacques G. Maisongroung was a feature speaker at Klaus M. Schwab’s first European Management Forum on Feb. 04-07, 1971, along with the black monarch and Fourth Reich heir apparent Otto von Habsburg.

    Klaus’s married Hilde Stoll in the weeks following the first Forum in 1971. This was an evident corporate marriage. Hilde’s family, to this day, owns an engineering, robotics, artificial intelligence and process controls manufacturer name FESTO with over 20,000 employees.

    It should be noted that the Escher and Sulzer families are interlocked with the Stolls, Schwabs and Bodmar families. The Bodmar family property in Cologny, Geneva Canton, Switzerland is the current site of The World Economic Forum headquarters as well as the Schwab residence—like a ritzy WACO-like compound.

    The Bodmar family is a 15th-century silk manufacturing family who purchased the WEF land from Fanny Moser-Sulzer (Sulzer AG). Hans von Schulthess-Bodmar was a director of Escher-Wyss & Co. and those interlocked engineering firms and exclusive private banks are still in operation today (Escher & Rahn renamed Rahn Bodmer).

    Indeed, none of these family businesses have lack funding. Given their close proximity to untold amounts of stolen Nazi-Japanese gold at the Bank for International Settlements, their “success” comes into focus. In fact, it was during the Marshall Plan that the British Pilgrims Society took control of these Second-Reich family corporate empires to serve their secular new world order scheme.

    Martin Bodmar was born the same year as Klaus’ father Eugen (1899). Martin was a vice-president of the International Red Cross (1940-71). Klaus is believed to have attended grade school in the Au suburb of Zurich (1945-47, ages 7-9) and lived in Bodmar castle during that posh primary schooling.

    PILGRIMS INTERNATIONAL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE CREATED A GOLD-LAUNDERING BEACHHEAD IN RAVENSBURG & FUNDED ESCHER-WYSS, SULZER, STOLL AND FESTO PERPETUALLY

    Klaus had all of his schooling bankrolled by Escher-Wyss financiers in Zurich just as his father Eugen Schwab, as managing director of Escher-Wyss & Cie. (Co.) in Ravensburg was forming the Ravensburg Chamber of Commerce and Industry as vice-president (1945-46).

    Eugen formed the Ravensburg Chamber of Commerce at the behest of Sir Winthrop W. Aldrich (Rockefeller, Henry Kissinger’s and Paul Volcker’s boss), Allan W. Dulles (OSS/CIA Bern, Switzerland), and the Bank for International Settlements set up by MI6 and the CIA.

    The British Pilgrims Society had already begun to funnel dirty Marshall Plan funds to insider companies like Escher-Wyss and Festo and their interlocked private Swiss banking family companies, even before the war ended, in exchange for Ravensburg’s help in transporting the Nazi gold to Bill J. Donovan, Allan W. Dulles and Edwin Pauley (OSS cum MI6—the rogue C.I.A.), the British Pilgrims Society required Schwab fealty to the new world order being fronted by their newly-forming United Nations.

    Note: Lord Mark Malloch-Brown, the current Pilgrims Society chairman of SGO Smartmatic (with its masked OpTech ballot scanning software running in Dominion, ES&S, Hart InterCivic, Sequoia, Diebold, Premier), has served in almost every senior post at the United Nations: United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) in Thailand, Africa, Central America and Geneva; Reform of UN communications; UN Development Program (UNDP); London International Model UN; UN Millennium Summit; and Deputy Secretary-General.

    Note also: Sir Nigel Graham Knowles is Malloch-Brown’s fellow Pilgrim in SGO Smartmatic where he is director, chief trustee of Prince’s Trust America, and employed Kamala Harris newly-minted husband Doug Emhoff at DLA Piper LLP law.

    Starting even before the Germans surrendered on May 07, 1945—just two weeks after the famous “Link-Up” (Apr. 25, 1945) of the American 69th Infantry Division with the Soviet 58th Guards in Torgau—Ravensburg was a staging ground for shipping stolen Nazi gold to Switzerland. It has also been a processing hub for Allied POWs as evident cover for Ravensburg duplicities discussed herein.

    The looted Nazi gold was routed through Ravensburg, near the Swiss-Lichtenstein border, and sent to the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, Bern and Zurich. Allen W. Dulles was the OSS spy director in Bern in charge of the Nazi gold for the Allies (Read: Pilgrims Society).

    After the war, Dulles became the first director of the C.I.A. and was the man who later covered up the Kennedy Assassination in the Warren Commission, after, many believe, he ordered President Kennedy’s assassination to protect his emerging Pilgrims Society global enterprise founded on the stolen Nazi and Japanese gold—the banking system that operates today, still named the Bank for International Settlements, Zurich that handles inter banking special drawing rights.

    President Kennedy was assassinated not long after he told a colleague: “I will splinter the CIA [Dulles’ creature] into a thousand pieces and scatter it into the winds.” (New York Times, Apr. 25, 1966).

    THE PILGRIMS SOCIETY EVIL OF THE MARSHALL PLAN

    President Kennedy, as did President Eisenhower, surely knew about the criminal Pilgrims Society banking of fascist industries paying their tribute behind the smokescreen of the Marshall Plan “helping” Europe recover… from a war that these bâtards just funded! (Please excuse the French.)

    Escher-Wyss hosted numerous Sir Winthrop’s Chamber meetings in Zurich and Ravensburg sponsored by their father-son city fathers team of Eugen and Klaus Schwab.

    As the Escher-Wyss managing director, Eugen was a man whose favor was sought in both Germany, Switzerland, and the Pilgrims Society, and who was grooming son Klaus to take over their Escher-Wyss dynasty, now 216 years old.

    ELECTION RIGGING LEADERSHIP EMERGES FROM WEF & THEIR PILGRIMS SOCIETY OVERLORDS

    Today, Klaus Schwab’s Andritz AG auditor is KPMG who also audits SERCO (controlled by the British Crown) and SGO Smartmatic (aka Dominion etc.) Voting Systems (controlled by Lord Mark Malloch-Brown and Sir Nigel Knowles, Kamala Harris’ British handler.

    Klaus received a bachelor and PhD in engineering from Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, ETH Zürich, Switzerland, co-founded by Alfred Escher (1855).

    Klaus also received overlapping masters and PhD degrees from the Jesuit University of Fribourg, Switzerland (1962-67). […]

    In 1966-67, Klaus was shuffled off to Boston for his Harvard grooming. He received a master’s in public administration from the John F. Kennedy School of Government. There he admits collaborating with Pilgrims Society inner circle gadabouts Henry Kissinger and John K. Galbraith. Galbraith and Kissinger came to play leading rolls in the World Economic Forum strategies and tactics.

    On the wings of Kissinger’s Pilgrims Society instructions, Klaus Schwab was assigned to organize the Europe Management Forum starting in 1971.

    Starting in 1965, the U.S. Department of Energy began funding the development of nuclear weapons capability in apartheid South Africa (read: British-controlled).

    Newly-discovered information for this most top secret program reveal that Sulzer-Escher-Wyss supplied critical components to the enrichment of triggering of a nuclear bomb, ostensibly for the South Africans. Apparently their prized elephant herds needed protecting.

    NUCLEAR WARMONGERS (KLAUS SCHWAB & HIS GOLD-DIGGING INTERLOCKED FAMILIES) ARE RUNNING THE WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM

    Klaus’s first job after university was managing a 10,000-employee merger of Escher-Wyss AG and Sulzer AG. Now we know that these companies and their families were interlocked and this was merely window dressing. This occurred just as Sulzer was shipping specialize compressor and turbine seals to South Africa. Later, Swiss fugitive Marc Rich ran sanctions against South Africa for this secret Pilgrims Society nuclear cabal.

    SOCIAL NETWORKING WAS STOLEN TO HELP WEF INSIDERS COORDINATE GLOBALLY

    Nuclear sanctions-buster Marc Rich was pardoned by Bill Clinton as he left office on Jan. 20, 2001. Notably, at the same time, Clinton pardoned his former C.I.A. Director John M. Deutch (1995-96), and appointed Leader Technologies’ patent attorney Professor James P. Chandler, III and Microsoft’s Bill Gates to an organization euphemistically named “National Infrastructure Assurance Council (NIAC)” that still exists to this day and is overseeing the weaponization of patents for the DoD Office of Net Assessment.

    For those of you who follow this blog, Leader Technologies, Inc. is the patent holder of the invention of social networking. James P. Chandler, III was their patent attorney who secreted a copy of Leader’s invaluable source code and gave it to a newly-forming IBM Eclipse Foundation on Nov. 29, 2001, just after the 9/11 false flag diversion that drove Congress to approve sweeping sacrifices of liberty, privacy and security, ironically in the name of security. Leader Technologies has filed a lien on the U.S. Government and wants its shareholders paid for the risks they took and the government stole.

    Bono obsequiously promotes the World Economic Forum, Klaus Schwab and George Soros. Evidently acting on insider tips in 2009, he “invested” $56 million in Facebook private stock sold corruptly by Goldman Sachs.* Those shares rose to $1 billion at the Facebook IPO on May 18, 2012, along with other Pilgrims/WEF insiders, including James W. Breyer, Accel Partners, Peter A. Thiel, Mark Zuckerberg, Yuri Milner, Goldman Sachs, Microsoft and Meritech Management (Ann Huntress Lamont) who cashed in $13.26 billion on Day 3, much to the outrage of CNBC’s Jim Cramer.

    * Bono corruptly invested in Facebook during the Leader v. Facebook social networking patent infringement trial 2008-2010. He invested concurrently with Hillary Clinton’s secret State Department contract with Facebook to build “an election winning template” to rig elections. Hillary’s contract was blatant obstruction of justice, not to mention criminal conspiracy, espionage, treason and sedition.

    And yet, she walks free.

    For now.

    CRIMINAL WEF SYCHOPANT SIRS—DO YOU THINK BONO KNOWS KLAUS IS A NUCLEAR NAZI WHOSE COMPANIES CAN MAKE A CINDER OUT OF PLANET EARTH?

    CONCLUSION

    There is a reason that Klaus Schwab has been the only leader of the World Economic Forum since 1971—50 years.

    He is doing the bidding of his masters at the British Pilgrims Society. His children Nicole and Olivier have joined him and Hilde to carry on the fascist thefts into the next generation of their carefully crafted criminal enterprise.

    Klaus Schwab’s perfidy demands that he and the World Economic Forum cease operations.

    WEF is nothing more than a organized crime guild for the Pilgrims Society. They have co opted the deposed monarchies of Europe to support the “Great Reset.” In return, those deposed monarchs get insider financial trading information so that they can continue to fund their lavish lifestyles.

    Klaus uses Jesuit tactics of secrecy, just like Cecil J. Rhodes dictated some 118 years earlier, to keep the average citizen ignorant of their criminal doings.

    They use the media to tell lies to fool and pacify the public, as well as haughtily “create public opinion.”

    Klaus’s Fourth Reich will invigorate many of the deposed royal families with new life.

    The difference this time is that they will be taking orders from the corporate and banking criminals of the British Pilgrims Society, while the Pilgrims in turn hide their organized crime behind the fascination of a naive public with royalty, while these bureaucrats interlock into the closed loop of a 1%-ers club, like Escher-Wyss’ closed-cycle gas turbines that can run on any kind of fuel, including nuclear.

    The insider trading of the WEF members, including his Escher-Wyss-Sulzer-Andritz-Stoll-Festo interlocking criminal enterprises, must be dismantled so that a free market can emerge, for the first time in human history.

    The “Great Reset” insider trading criminal syndicate that is the World Economic Forum must be dismantled and their conspirators prosecuted worldwide for the great harm they have done to human civilization.

    SHUT DOWN THE WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM

    DEFUND THE INSIDER TRADERS

    SHIP THEM TO GITMO & PROSECUTE THEIR CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY

    Brethren, this is all part of these End Times. Our omniscient God knew that these times would befall us – even before the foundations of the earth were laid!

C.I.A. archive documents show that Escher-Wyss and Sulzer were being directed by the U.S. Department of Energy and the State Department. This would logically mean that Klaus Schwab was a triple-agent, working simultaneously for: (1) the CIA-MI6-UN British-Americans Pilgrims Society, (2) Nazis (now Germany) and (3) Switzerland. Do we really want a triple-agent lying spy running the “Great Reset” and “Build Back Better?” Third, Escher-Wyss was one of the largest employers in Ravensburg, Germany. Fourth, Escher-Wyss was the first city in Nazi German to practice eugenics principles to murder “useless eaters” emerging from the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute (something like the National Institute of Health in the US, or Tavistock Institute in the UK). Fifth, contrary to the propaganda stories about Ravensburg’s lack of war-making industries (as the reason why the Allies did not bomb the city and its Escher-Wyss industry), we discovered many Ravensburg unconfessed sins surrounding the Schwab’s and Escher-Wyss. Besides parts for ships, airplanes, submarines and power plants, Escher-Wyss brokered flame throwers built in their Zurich plant and sold to the Nazis. This information comes from the U.S. Archives. This would have been handled by Eugen Schwab with a then about 5-year old Klaus at his side. They also supplied turbines, compressors and propellers for Nazi ships and submarines, as well as gas turbines for powering the war machine, in addition to their nuclear technology. Escher-Wyss exploited slave labor (Jewish, Russian, Gypsy, homosexual, Hungarian, Romanian, Polish ), as well as Allied POWs. Being a National Socialists Model Company, this would certainly have included Dr. Josef Mengele’s biological war crimes (“The Angel of Death”). KLAUS & HILDE’S INTERLOCKING COMPANIES EMPLOY OVER 50,000 TODAY—ALL FED BY WEF INSIDER TRADING Escher Wyss today operates under numerous re branded names including Andritz AG and Sulzer AG. These companies are poised to profit enormously from the priorities reflected in Klaus Schwab’s so-called “Great Reset,” including hydropower, plasma turbines, nuclear power, materials science, nuclear weapons, oil and gas, coal, bio fuel, paper, food, robotics, artificial intelligence, financing, patents, pharmaceuticals and more. Historically, the first (IBM) punch card machine readers, sometimes called Hollerith machines, were first manufactured by companies like Escher-Wyss and Sulzer who specialized in textile machines in the 1880s. Punched cards were used to created different patters on textile machines, as well as in player pianos. Other names in this business were Semyon Korsakov (ca. 1805); Charles Babbage (ca. 1855); Herman Hollerith (ca. 1880); The Tabulating Machine Company (ca. 1910), including Dehomag (Deutsche Hollerith-Maschinen GmbH, IBM Germany); and Computing-Tabulating-Recording Company (1911, renamed IBM). Note: IBM International president Jacques G. Maisongroung was a feature speaker at Klaus M. Schwab’s first European Management Forum on Feb. 04-07, 1971, along with the black monarch and Fourth Reich heir apparent Otto von Habsburg. Klaus’s married Hilde Stoll in the weeks following the first Forum in 1971. This was an evident corporate marriage. Hilde’s family, to this day, owns an engineering, robotics, artificial intelligence and process controls manufacturer name FESTO with over 20,000 employees. It should be noted that the Escher and Sulzer families are interlocked with the Stolls, Schwabs and Bodmar families. The Bodmar family property in Cologny, Geneva Canton, Switzerland is the current site of The World Economic Forum headquarters as well as the Schwab residence—like a ritzy WACO-like compound. The Bodmar family is a 15th-century silk manufacturing family who purchased the WEF land from Fanny Moser-Sulzer (Sulzer AG). Hans von Schulthess-Bodmar was a director of Escher-Wyss & Co. and those interlocked engineering firms and exclusive private banks are still in operation today (Escher & Rahn renamed Rahn Bodmer). Indeed, none of these family businesses have lack funding. Given their close proximity to untold amounts of stolen Nazi-Japanese gold at the Bank for International Settlements, their “success” comes into focus. In fact, it was during the Marshall Plan that the British Pilgrims Society took control of these Second-Reich family corporate empires to serve their secular new world order scheme. Martin Bodmar was born the same year as Klaus’ father Eugen (1899). Martin was a vice-president of the International Red Cross (1940-71). Klaus is believed to have attended grade school in the Au suburb of Zurich (1945-47, ages 7-9) and lived in Bodmar castle during that posh primary schooling. PILGRIMS INTERNATIONAL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE CREATED A GOLD-LAUNDERING BEACHHEAD IN RAVENSBURG & FUNDED ESCHER-WYSS, SULZER, STOLL AND FESTO PERPETUALLY Klaus had all of his schooling bankrolled by Escher-Wyss financiers in Zurich just as his father Eugen Schwab, as managing director of Escher-Wyss & Cie. (Co.) in Ravensburg was forming the Ravensburg Chamber of Commerce and Industry as vice-president (1945-46). Eugen formed the Ravensburg Chamber of Commerce at the behest of Sir Winthrop W. Aldrich (Rockefeller, Henry Kissinger’s and Paul Volcker’s boss), Allan W. Dulles (OSS/CIA Bern, Switzerland), and the Bank for International Settlements set up by MI6 and the CIA. The British Pilgrims Society had already begun to funnel dirty Marshall Plan funds to insider companies like Escher-Wyss and Festo and their interlocked private Swiss banking family companies, even before the war ended, in exchange for Ravensburg’s help in transporting the Nazi gold to Bill J. Donovan, Allan W. Dulles and Edwin Pauley (OSS cum MI6—the rogue C.I.A.), the British Pilgrims Society required Schwab fealty to the new world order being fronted by their newly-forming United Nations. Note: Lord Mark Malloch-Brown, the current Pilgrims Society chairman of SGO Smartmatic (with its masked OpTech ballot scanning software running in Dominion, ES&S, Hart InterCivic, Sequoia, Diebold, Premier), has served in almost every senior post at the United Nations: United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) in Thailand, Africa, Central America and Geneva; Reform of UN communications; UN Development Program (UNDP); London International Model UN; UN Millennium Summit; and Deputy Secretary-General. Note also: Sir Nigel Graham Knowles is Malloch-Brown’s fellow Pilgrim in SGO Smartmatic where he is director, chief trustee of Prince’s Trust America, and employed Kamala Harris newly-minted husband Doug Emhoff at DLA Piper LLP law. Starting even before the Germans surrendered on May 07, 1945—just two weeks after the famous “Link-Up” (Apr. 25, 1945) of the American 69th Infantry Division with the Soviet 58th Guards in Torgau—Ravensburg was a staging ground for shipping stolen Nazi gold to Switzerland. It has also been a processing hub for Allied POWs as evident cover for Ravensburg duplicities discussed herein. The looted Nazi gold was routed through Ravensburg, near the Swiss-Lichtenstein border, and sent to the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, Bern and Zurich. Allen W. Dulles was the OSS spy director in Bern in charge of the Nazi gold for the Allies (Read: Pilgrims Society). After the war, Dulles became the first director of the C.I.A. and was the man who later covered up the Kennedy Assassination in the Warren Commission, after, many believe, he ordered President Kennedy’s assassination to protect his emerging Pilgrims Society global enterprise founded on the stolen Nazi and Japanese gold—the banking system that operates today, still named the Bank for International Settlements, Zurich that handles inter banking special drawing rights. President Kennedy was assassinated not long after he told a colleague: “I will splinter the CIA [Dulles’ creature] into a thousand pieces and scatter it into the winds.” (New York Times, Apr. 25, 1966). THE PILGRIMS SOCIETY EVIL OF THE MARSHALL PLAN President Kennedy, as did President Eisenhower, surely knew about the criminal Pilgrims Society banking of fascist industries paying their tribute behind the smokescreen of the Marshall Plan “helping” Europe recover… from a war that these bâtards just funded! (Please excuse the French.) Escher-Wyss hosted numerous Sir Winthrop’s Chamber meetings in Zurich and Ravensburg sponsored by their father-son city fathers team of Eugen and Klaus Schwab. As the Escher-Wyss managing director, Eugen was a man whose favor was sought in both Germany, Switzerland, and the Pilgrims Society, and who was grooming son Klaus to take over their Escher-Wyss dynasty, now 216 years old. ELECTION RIGGING LEADERSHIP EMERGES FROM WEF & THEIR PILGRIMS SOCIETY OVERLORDS Today, Klaus Schwab’s Andritz AG auditor is KPMG who also audits SERCO (controlled by the British Crown) and SGO Smartmatic (aka Dominion etc.) Voting Systems (controlled by Lord Mark Malloch-Brown and Sir Nigel Knowles, Kamala Harris’ British handler. Klaus received a bachelor and PhD in engineering from Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, ETH Zürich, Switzerland, co-founded by Alfred Escher (1855). Klaus also received overlapping masters and PhD degrees from the Jesuit University of Fribourg, Switzerland (1962-67). […] In 1966-67, Klaus was shuffled off to Boston for his Harvard grooming. He received a master’s in public administration from the John F. Kennedy School of Government. There he admits collaborating with Pilgrims Society inner circle gadabouts Henry Kissinger and John K. Galbraith. Galbraith and Kissinger came to play leading rolls in the World Economic Forum strategies and tactics. On the wings of Kissinger’s Pilgrims Society instructions, Klaus Schwab was assigned to organize the Europe Management Forum starting in 1971. Starting in 1965, the U.S. Department of Energy began funding the development of nuclear weapons capability in apartheid South Africa (read: British-controlled). Newly-discovered information for this most top secret program reveal that Sulzer-Escher-Wyss supplied critical components to the enrichment of triggering of a nuclear bomb, ostensibly for the South Africans. Apparently their prized elephant herds needed protecting. NUCLEAR WARMONGERS (KLAUS SCHWAB & HIS GOLD-DIGGING INTERLOCKED FAMILIES) ARE RUNNING THE WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM Klaus’s first job after university was managing a 10,000-employee merger of Escher-Wyss AG and Sulzer AG. Now we know that these companies and their families were interlocked and this was merely window dressing. This occurred just as Sulzer was shipping specialize compressor and turbine seals to South Africa. Later, Swiss fugitive Marc Rich ran sanctions against South Africa for this secret Pilgrims Society nuclear cabal. SOCIAL NETWORKING WAS STOLEN TO HELP WEF INSIDERS COORDINATE GLOBALLY Nuclear sanctions-buster Marc Rich was pardoned by Bill Clinton as he left office on Jan. 20, 2001. Notably, at the same time, Clinton pardoned his former C.I.A. Director John M. Deutch (1995-96), and appointed Leader Technologies’ patent attorney Professor James P. Chandler, III and Microsoft’s Bill Gates to an organization euphemistically named “National Infrastructure Assurance Council (NIAC)” that still exists to this day and is overseeing the weaponization of patents for the DoD Office of Net Assessment. For those of you who follow this blog, Leader Technologies, Inc. is the patent holder of the invention of social networking. James P. Chandler, III was their patent attorney who secreted a copy of Leader’s invaluable source code and gave it to a newly-forming IBM Eclipse Foundation on Nov. 29, 2001, just after the 9/11 false flag diversion that drove Congress to approve sweeping sacrifices of liberty, privacy and security, ironically in the name of security. Leader Technologies has filed a lien on the U.S. Government and wants its shareholders paid for the risks they took and the government stole. Bono obsequiously promotes the World Economic Forum, Klaus Schwab and George Soros. Evidently acting on insider tips in 2009, he “invested” $56 million in Facebook private stock sold corruptly by Goldman Sachs.* Those shares rose to $1 billion at the Facebook IPO on May 18, 2012, along with other Pilgrims/WEF insiders, including James W. Breyer, Accel Partners, Peter A. Thiel, Mark Zuckerberg, Yuri Milner, Goldman Sachs, Microsoft and Meritech Management (Ann Huntress Lamont) who cashed in $13.26 billion on Day 3, much to the outrage of CNBC’s Jim Cramer. * Bono corruptly invested in Facebook during the Leader v. Facebook social networking patent infringement trial 2008-2010. He invested concurrently with Hillary Clinton’s secret State Department contract with Facebook to build “an election winning template” to rig elections. Hillary’s contract was blatant obstruction of justice, not to mention criminal conspiracy, espionage, treason and sedition. And yet, she walks free. For now. CRIMINAL WEF SYCHOPANT SIRS—DO YOU THINK BONO KNOWS KLAUS IS A NUCLEAR NAZI WHOSE COMPANIES CAN MAKE A CINDER OUT OF PLANET EARTH? Sir Klaus Martin Schwab, KCMG, and Sir Bono, KBE (Paul David Hewson) relish the psycophantic adulation of their self-anointed fellow insider trading criminals at the 2016 World Economic Forum, Davos, Switzerland. Photo: World Economic Forum. CONCLUSION There is a reason that Klaus Schwab has been the only leader of the World Economic Forum since 1971—50 years. He is doing the bidding of his masters at the British Pilgrims Society. His children Nicole and Olivier have joined him and Hilde to carry on the fascist thefts into the next generation of their carefully crafted criminal enterprise. Klaus Schwab’s perfidy demands that he and the World Economic Forum cease operations. WEF is nothing more than a organized crime guild for the Pilgrims Society. They have co opted the deposed monarchies of Europe to support the “Great Reset.” In return, those deposed monarchs get insider financial trading information so that they can continue to fund their lavish lifestyles. Klaus uses Jesuit tactics of secrecy, just like Cecil J. Rhodes dictated some 118 years earlier, to keep the average citizen ignorant of their criminal doings. They use the media to tell lies to fool and pacify the public, as well as haughtily “create public opinion.” Klaus’s Fourth Reich will invigorate many of the deposed royal families with new life. The difference this time is that they will be taking orders from the corporate and banking criminals of the British Pilgrims Society, while the Pilgrims in turn hide their organized crime behind the fascination of a naive public with royalty, while these bureaucrats interlock into the closed loop of a 1%-ers club, like Escher-Wyss’ closed-cycle gas turbines that can run on any kind of fuel, including nuclear. The insider trading of the WEF members, including his Escher-Wyss-Sulzer-Andritz-Stoll-Festo interlocking criminal enterprises, must be dismantled so that a free market can emerge, for the first time in human history. The “Great Reset” insider trading criminal syndicate that is the World Economic Forum must be dismantled and their conspirators prosecuted worldwide for the great harm they have done to human civilization. SHUT DOWN THE WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM DEFUND THE INSIDER TRADERS SHIP THEM TO GITMO & PROSECUTE THEIR CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY SOURCE Brethren, this is all part of these End Times. Our omniscient God knew that these times would befall us – even before the foundations of the earth were laid! Trust in HIM Always!

  • The Jewish Right to Rape... Children
    Disgusting isn't even touching the Grass

    Fritz Freud

    There is so much information... one more disgusting than the other that I must put this out into a post.
    My aim isn't calling out one group and I am usually more concerned with the Future and how to solve problems.
    However the Propaganda we are witnessing has reached new levels of insincerity insanity outright lies and outright fascism.
    Zionist Fascism in a Zionist takeover of this world
    This propaganda must be countered with truth.
    We are all victims here.

    First of all... you must see this video from Richard Medhurst someone I highly respect and salute for his work.

    Richard Medhurst - The Israelis have entered a civil war over the IDF's "right" to rape Palestinian hostages

    The Israelis have entered a civil war over the IDF's "right" to rape Palestinian hostages. The Israeli mob defending the rapists just overran a 2nd military base. The IDF has had to pause talks on bombing Lebanon and divert combat units away from Gaza. You can't make this up

    https://odysee.com/@TheAgeofAquariusPI4PSI:a/RichardMedhurst-Palestinianhostages:5

    What is telling is the clip of discussion inside the Knesset where Jewish Lawmaker absolutists defend the Jewish right to rape.
    If you ever thought the Nazis were bad... the Jews now are by far worse.
    And that I put mildly.
    Here is the same story by Clayton Morris from Redacted:



    And if this is bad... watch what will happen when these fanatics take over the Temple mount and build the 3rd Temple of Solomon.
    WW3.
    By design!

    Note:
    I am German.
    For all my life I tried to find out what really happened in Nazi Germany.
    The result of my research is a very sophisticated form of Mind Control.
    Torture pain and victimization are very much part of this then and now.
    What happens today in Israel is a carbon copy of what happened in Germany 100 years ago... in Venezuela... and in the world.
    Induced Mass Madness by the Occult which are the so called leaders.
    Adolf Hitler introduced the "Volksempfänger" a simple Radio on which he could reach the public.
    What happens is Israel today is exactly what happened in Germany to bring the Nazis to power using Occult methods... Jewish Occult that is... mass induced insanity through sophisticated Mind Control.


    Volksempfänger

    Speaking of Nazis... here is Analena Baerbock the German Minister for existential stupidity and lies of the Ministry of untruth... a walking abortion telling lies and being confronted about it.



    The UN team headed by Pramila Patten, the secretary-general’s special representative on sexual violence in armed conflict, concluded in its report published in March that “in the medicolegal assessment of available photos and videos, no tangible indications of rape could be identified.”

    The following month the Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported that “From inquiries put to three bodies in the defense establishment by Haaretz, it emerges that the intelligence material collected by the police and the intelligence bodies, including footage from terrorists’ body cameras, does not contain visual documentation of any acts of rape themselves.”

    https://electronicintifada.net/blogs/ali-abunimah/germany-smears-journalist-challenging-baerbocks-7-oct-rape-video-lie

    Analena Baerbock is the dumbest whore of misinformation a stern Zionist Nazi of the worst kind in the dumbest most Fascist German Government that ever existed... and the most Jewish one.
    These Jewish Nazis have destroyed Germany and they are worse than the Nazis ever were.
    Angela Merkel was a STASI whore... IM ERIKA... Analena Baerbock is dumb as fuck... and they all support war in Ukraine and they are all Nazis...PERIOD!
    And they are all Jewish Zionists who support Genocide and war with Russia...
    War with Russia!
    Napoleon tried this... little Napoleon i.e. Macron is pushing it...
    Hitler tried it... little Hitler i.e. Scholz is pushing it...
    Yet Russia is impossible to invade... and they know it...


    Here is Merkel with a poster stating:

    We don't have a Past.
    But we create a secure Future.

    Yep... sounds communist to me.
    Sounds like Camel Harris to me...


    Anette Kahane is Jewish and the master censor of Germany.
    She also was a STASI agent.
    So if you wonder why Germany now is descending... again... into fascism... just like Israel... look no further than the leaders who pushing us into it using every available tool from censorship to drugs in the food... all part of this sophisticated mind control apparatus.
    Then connect the Dots to the Rothschilds... and there you have it!


    That coincides with my research that the German Government and the EU scum Ursula Albrecht are stern Nazis... even worse than the Nazis and the German Media are complicit in Genocide and are worse than Nazis.

    The German propaganda media is totally controlled by Zionists.
    And the Zionists pushing us into WW3.


    German Media is solely owned by these Families:
    Springer
    Mohn (Time Warner, Bertelsmann,Random House and News Corporation)
    Burda
    Mattsack
    DuMont
    Schaub
    Funke

    The German politicians are controlled by the WEF and the Atlantik Brücke (Atlantic Bridge) who also control the German media.
    Politicians are raised through the Hitler Youth programs of the WEF and the Atlantik Brücke... most famously Angela Merkel who also was a STASI Agent.
    Atlantik Brücke just like the Project for a New American Century (PNAC) and the Millennium Century Cooperation (MCC) are think tanks...as in Tank... as in a tool of war in this spiritual war.
    The aim is to steer Humanity into WW3 as in mutual assured self destruction.

    Atlantik-Brücke is a German-American organization that promotes dialogue and cooperation between the two countries on various topics. Learn about their events, programs, and insights on economy, finance, markets, and democracy.

    https://www.atlantik-bruecke.org/en/

    And the Atlantik Brücke is a forefront of the CIA Zionist takeover of this world promoting WW3 with Russia and China.
    It was founded by no one else but Eric M. Warburg long time associate of the Rothschilds and Rockefellers.
    Rothschild Warburg Schiff drafted the treaty of Versailles.
    There they dissected Europe between them.
    Blaming Germany for the war they created.
    Paul Moritz Warburg was the founder of the United States Federal Reserve Bank.
    So you see how this all works together.
    This is also the reason the Jews hate Germany because they use Germany as the basis for their evilness blaming it on the Germans... see how that works?
    This is why you have scum like Analena Baerbock and Angela Merkel and Ursula von der Leyen... because the real power behind them are the Jews...

    The name Paul Moritz Warburg is synonymous with the founding of the Federal Reserve System. Warburg’s impact on American banking is a parallel to his family’s impact on European banking. The epic story of the Warburg family of European bankers can be traced back to the early 1500s when Simon von Cassel settled in the German Westphalia town of Warburg (originally founded by Charlemagne in 778 and was then known as Warburgum) and began the family’s quest for money and financial power.

    https://digitalcommons.sacredheart.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1110&context=his_fac

    And history is repeating itself because of the Federal Reserve Money system which gives them Jewish Bankers 10 times the money by default of all of the rest of the world combined.
    Basically it is privatized legal Jewish Slavery.
    And they finance war terror and diseases promoting Trans and LBGTQFU+++

    The US and Europe have to further increase pressure on Russia – and China

    Remarks by Deputy Secretary of the Treasury Wally Adeyemo at Atlantik Brücke and the Transatlantic Business Initiative Event

    I’ve come to Berlin on the back of a trip to Kyiv, where I had a chance to meet my counterparts and brave Ukrainians who have been resilient in the face of unyielding war. I was reminded that Ukraine remains a democratic country today because its people are willing to fight for freedom.

    Over two years ago, when Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the Kremlin expected to be in control of Kyiv within days and the entire country within weeks. But Ukraine stood up, and our coalition stood beside them, denying the Kremlin the quick victory it expected. And as the Ukrainian people fought off advancing Russian troops, we put in place unprecedented sanctions that cut off Russia’s largest banks from our financial systems and shackled the Kremlin’s war chest by immobilizing its sovereign assets held abroad.

    In response to its strategic failure, the Kremlin has now committed nearly half a million troops to this unprovoked invasion and imposed a set of draconian capital controls to prevent money from escaping from Russia. As Russia’s strategy evolved, so did our approach.

    On one end, the United States, Germany, and our coalition provided Ukraine with weapons to defend against Russia’s aggression on the frontlines and economic support to bolster its resilience on the home front.

    And they rape children in Gaza

    Israeli soldiers accused of raping Palestinian women and children

    Credible reports have emerged of Israeli soldiers raping and sexually abusing Palestinian women and children. UN experts found credible cases of rape and sexual assault in Israeli prisons, and women who were threatened by sexual violence and rape. Many Palestinian women reported that they had been humiliated, stripped naked, and assaulted at an Israeli checkpoint that had been established between the north and the south of Gaza.

    Note:
    The fact that they protect rapist as they do is a fact of confession that they rape children as they do.

    Josh Paul resigned from the State Dept over sending arms to Israel. “I have heard from actually so many hundreds of colleagues at this point who support what I did,” he says. “They are finding what is happening both a moral disaster and a policy disaster for the United States.”

    Albert Pike: The 3rd World War.

    “The Third World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences caused by the “agentur” of the “Illuminati” between the political Zionists and the leaders of Islamic World. The war must be conducted in such a way that Islam (the Moslem Arabic World) and political Zionism (the State of Israel) mutually destroy each other. Meanwhile the other nations, once more divided on this issue will be constrained to fight to the point of complete physical, moral, spiritual and economical exhaustion…We shall unleash the Nihilists and the atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effect of absolute atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil. Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with Christianity, whose deistic spirits will from that moment be without compass or direction, anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out in the public view. This manifestation will result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time.”

    The Illuminati was founded in Germany in Bavaria by Adam Weishaupt.
    Germany is ruled by Jewish Freemasonry forever... as is the USA.
    Hitler was a Rothschild and a Freemasons... all the Nazis were Freemasons.
    The Jews / Freemasons always use a decoy in order to hide their evil Intentions and blame someone else... playing victim when they are not.

    So we know the outcome of their plan... everything else is just the execution of this plan.
    Rigging selections... creating pandemics... poisoning people... indoctrination education... Religion... mind control... war...everything goes to make their plans come true... and they use the Occult to do it.

    In short... we are witnessing the destruction of Humanity by the Jewish Bankers who are not Human... they are Draco... Anunaki... Children of the Sun.
    An Alien Race of energy beings that want this world for their own .
    A self fulfilling Prophecy they have written thousands of years ago... coming to a climax now.
    NOT HUMAN!
    Don't you get it?

    Then there is Venezuela…
    It is the same as Israel… mas induced anger and uproar.
    My best guess is that they use STARLINK in both Israel and Venezuela to induce mass anger.

    STARLINK: Brainwave Attack

    STARLINK: Brainwave Attack
    The Schumann Resonance is a low-frequency electromagnetic wave of up to 7.83 Hz that occurs between the Earth's surface and the ionosphere. It is related to the electrical activity in the atmosphere and can affect human behavior, mood, and health.

    Note:
    STARLINK is controlled by T-Mobile which is controlled by Ori Cohen which is IDF Unit 8200 Alumini.
    So Israel controls STARLINK.
    Get it?

    Israel today is Nazi Germany 1933 using the same Mind control techniques to induce mass insanity.
    When people protect rapists... the Idea alone is insane.
    And insane they are.
    To be sacrificed on the Altar of Globalism.
    Because WW3 is all they want and all they ever wanted.
    The sacrifice of all of Humanity in a Global Holocaust.

    Godspeed

    The Jewish Right to Rape... Children Disgusting isn't even touching the Grass Fritz Freud There is so much information... one more disgusting than the other that I must put this out into a post. My aim isn't calling out one group and I am usually more concerned with the Future and how to solve problems. However the Propaganda we are witnessing has reached new levels of insincerity insanity outright lies and outright fascism. Zionist Fascism in a Zionist takeover of this world This propaganda must be countered with truth. We are all victims here. First of all... you must see this video from Richard Medhurst someone I highly respect and salute for his work. Richard Medhurst - The Israelis have entered a civil war over the IDF's "right" to rape Palestinian hostages The Israelis have entered a civil war over the IDF's "right" to rape Palestinian hostages. The Israeli mob defending the rapists just overran a 2nd military base. The IDF has had to pause talks on bombing Lebanon and divert combat units away from Gaza. You can't make this up https://odysee.com/@TheAgeofAquariusPI4PSI:a/RichardMedhurst-Palestinianhostages:5 What is telling is the clip of discussion inside the Knesset where Jewish Lawmaker absolutists defend the Jewish right to rape. If you ever thought the Nazis were bad... the Jews now are by far worse. And that I put mildly. Here is the same story by Clayton Morris from Redacted: And if this is bad... watch what will happen when these fanatics take over the Temple mount and build the 3rd Temple of Solomon. WW3. By design! Note: I am German. For all my life I tried to find out what really happened in Nazi Germany. The result of my research is a very sophisticated form of Mind Control. Torture pain and victimization are very much part of this then and now. What happens today in Israel is a carbon copy of what happened in Germany 100 years ago... in Venezuela... and in the world. Induced Mass Madness by the Occult which are the so called leaders. Adolf Hitler introduced the "Volksempfänger" a simple Radio on which he could reach the public. What happens is Israel today is exactly what happened in Germany to bring the Nazis to power using Occult methods... Jewish Occult that is... mass induced insanity through sophisticated Mind Control. Volksempfänger Speaking of Nazis... here is Analena Baerbock the German Minister for existential stupidity and lies of the Ministry of untruth... a walking abortion telling lies and being confronted about it. The UN team headed by Pramila Patten, the secretary-general’s special representative on sexual violence in armed conflict, concluded in its report published in March that “in the medicolegal assessment of available photos and videos, no tangible indications of rape could be identified.” The following month the Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported that “From inquiries put to three bodies in the defense establishment by Haaretz, it emerges that the intelligence material collected by the police and the intelligence bodies, including footage from terrorists’ body cameras, does not contain visual documentation of any acts of rape themselves.” https://electronicintifada.net/blogs/ali-abunimah/germany-smears-journalist-challenging-baerbocks-7-oct-rape-video-lie Analena Baerbock is the dumbest whore of misinformation a stern Zionist Nazi of the worst kind in the dumbest most Fascist German Government that ever existed... and the most Jewish one. These Jewish Nazis have destroyed Germany and they are worse than the Nazis ever were. Angela Merkel was a STASI whore... IM ERIKA... Analena Baerbock is dumb as fuck... and they all support war in Ukraine and they are all Nazis...PERIOD! And they are all Jewish Zionists who support Genocide and war with Russia... War with Russia! Napoleon tried this... little Napoleon i.e. Macron is pushing it... Hitler tried it... little Hitler i.e. Scholz is pushing it... Yet Russia is impossible to invade... and they know it... Here is Merkel with a poster stating: We don't have a Past. But we create a secure Future. Yep... sounds communist to me. Sounds like Camel Harris to me... Anette Kahane is Jewish and the master censor of Germany. She also was a STASI agent. So if you wonder why Germany now is descending... again... into fascism... just like Israel... look no further than the leaders who pushing us into it using every available tool from censorship to drugs in the food... all part of this sophisticated mind control apparatus. Then connect the Dots to the Rothschilds... and there you have it! That coincides with my research that the German Government and the EU scum Ursula Albrecht are stern Nazis... even worse than the Nazis and the German Media are complicit in Genocide and are worse than Nazis. Ursula von der Leyen: A Female Adolf worse than Hitler Ursula von der Leyen: A Female Adolf worse than Hitler Let me get this straight: Ursula von der Leyen is a failure... a walking Abortion. Read full story The German propaganda media is totally controlled by Zionists. And the Zionists pushing us into WW3. German Media is solely owned by these Families: Springer Mohn (Time Warner, Bertelsmann,Random House and News Corporation) Burda Mattsack DuMont Schaub Funke The German politicians are controlled by the WEF and the Atlantik Brücke (Atlantic Bridge) who also control the German media. Politicians are raised through the Hitler Youth programs of the WEF and the Atlantik Brücke... most famously Angela Merkel who also was a STASI Agent. Atlantik Brücke just like the Project for a New American Century (PNAC) and the Millennium Century Cooperation (MCC) are think tanks...as in Tank... as in a tool of war in this spiritual war. The aim is to steer Humanity into WW3 as in mutual assured self destruction. Atlantik-Brücke is a German-American organization that promotes dialogue and cooperation between the two countries on various topics. Learn about their events, programs, and insights on economy, finance, markets, and democracy. https://www.atlantik-bruecke.org/en/ And the Atlantik Brücke is a forefront of the CIA Zionist takeover of this world promoting WW3 with Russia and China. It was founded by no one else but Eric M. Warburg long time associate of the Rothschilds and Rockefellers. Rothschild Warburg Schiff drafted the treaty of Versailles. There they dissected Europe between them. Blaming Germany for the war they created. Paul Moritz Warburg was the founder of the United States Federal Reserve Bank. So you see how this all works together. This is also the reason the Jews hate Germany because they use Germany as the basis for their evilness blaming it on the Germans... see how that works? This is why you have scum like Analena Baerbock and Angela Merkel and Ursula von der Leyen... because the real power behind them are the Jews... The name Paul Moritz Warburg is synonymous with the founding of the Federal Reserve System. Warburg’s impact on American banking is a parallel to his family’s impact on European banking. The epic story of the Warburg family of European bankers can be traced back to the early 1500s when Simon von Cassel settled in the German Westphalia town of Warburg (originally founded by Charlemagne in 778 and was then known as Warburgum) and began the family’s quest for money and financial power. https://digitalcommons.sacredheart.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1110&context=his_fac And history is repeating itself because of the Federal Reserve Money system which gives them Jewish Bankers 10 times the money by default of all of the rest of the world combined. Basically it is privatized legal Jewish Slavery. And they finance war terror and diseases promoting Trans and LBGTQFU+++ See the extinction Olympics. Stockholm Syndrome Extinction Olympics Stockholm Syndrome Extinction Olympics A Message / Question to all Christians: Read full story And now they push for WW3 with Russia through the CFR Atlantik Brücke and other political Institutions such as the Round Table Club of Rome and WEF which are all controlled by these Families. Just read a few sentence of their blatant lies and propaganda which would see a Joseph Göbbels blush. The US and Europe have to further increase pressure on Russia – and China Remarks by Deputy Secretary of the Treasury Wally Adeyemo at Atlantik Brücke and the Transatlantic Business Initiative Event I’ve come to Berlin on the back of a trip to Kyiv, where I had a chance to meet my counterparts and brave Ukrainians who have been resilient in the face of unyielding war. I was reminded that Ukraine remains a democratic country today because its people are willing to fight for freedom. Over two years ago, when Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the Kremlin expected to be in control of Kyiv within days and the entire country within weeks. But Ukraine stood up, and our coalition stood beside them, denying the Kremlin the quick victory it expected. And as the Ukrainian people fought off advancing Russian troops, we put in place unprecedented sanctions that cut off Russia’s largest banks from our financial systems and shackled the Kremlin’s war chest by immobilizing its sovereign assets held abroad. In response to its strategic failure, the Kremlin has now committed nearly half a million troops to this unprovoked invasion and imposed a set of draconian capital controls to prevent money from escaping from Russia. As Russia’s strategy evolved, so did our approach. On one end, the United States, Germany, and our coalition provided Ukraine with weapons to defend against Russia’s aggression on the frontlines and economic support to bolster its resilience on the home front. https://www.atlantik-bruecke.org/en/the-us-and-europe-have-to-further-increase-pressure-on-russia-and-china/ All of the Media gets their Information from Reuters and the Associated Press (AP).

Meanwhile the other nations, once more divided on this issue will be constrained to fight to the point of complete physical, moral, spiritual and economical exhaustion…We shall unleash the Nihilists and the atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effect of absolute atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil. Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with Christianity, whose deistic spirits will from that moment be without compass or direction, anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out in the public view.

  • Slaughter in Gaza and Lebanon as War with Iran Approaches. “These psychos must be stopped”. Caitlin Johnstone

    Israel appears to have begun its long-planned ethnic cleansing of northern Gaza, with the IDF dropping bombs, issuing evacuation orders for multiple hospitals, attacking civilians with sniper drones, and besieging civilian populations in order to force tens of thousands of people to either move south or die. Israel has reportedly been dropping leaflets on the Jabalia refugee camp ordering people to leave, and then shooting anyone who tries to.

    Since the 7th of October last year, Israel has committed roughly 100 October sevenths in Gaza; scores of American medical workers who volunteered in the enclave signed an open letter to president Biden estimating the real death toll from Israel’s onslaught at over 118,000. Israel has also committed about two October sevenths in Lebanon during that time, with the majority of the 2,100 Israeli killings in that country coming just in the last few weeks.

    As Israeli murderousness ramps up in both Gaza and Lebanon, Benjamin Netanyahu has issued a statement addressed to the Lebanese people telling them that they need to somehow defeat Hezbollah in order to “save Lebanon before it plunges into the abyss of a long war that will lead to destruction and suffering like we see in Gaza.”


    Israeli officials have been saying they’re going to destroy Lebanon like they destroyed Gaza for months. Back in December Israel’s defense minister Yoav Gallant said, “Every person in Lebanon can take the map, the aerial photograph of Gaza, place it on an aerial photograph of Beirut, and ask themselves if this is what they want to happen there.” Now Netanyahu himself is saying this.

    Notably, Netanyahu’s statement was delivered in English, with English subtitles. This wasn’t actually a plea made to the people of Lebanon, it was propaganda made for western consumption. Netanyahu does not actually believe the Lebanese people are going to take up arms against Hezbollah to stop their country from being destroyed, he’s just creating a narrative to justify what he already plans on doing to Lebanon.

    And the US is encouraging Israel to move forward. On Tuesday State Department Spokesman Matthew Miller told the press that the Biden administration no longer supports a ceasefire with Hezbollah, saying “We support Israel’s efforts to degrade Hezbollah’s capability” instead. Two weeks ago CNN reported that the administration has also essentially given up on a ceasefire in Gaza.


    And we haven’t even talked about Iran yet. NBC News reports that US military officials have been discussing directly joining in Israel’s planned attack on Iran, potentially launching their own airstrikes on the Iranian military whenever Israel begins its attack.

    Whether the US joins with Israel in its coming attack or not, Iran has already made it clear that it will retaliate against any further aggressions by Israel, and Israel has made it clear that if Iran strikes back it’s going to ramp up its aggressions and perhaps start attacking Iranian energy infrastructure. If this blows up into full-scale war, as looks increasingly likely, it’s inevitable that the US will come to Israel’s defense.

    Axios and its Israeli intelligence insider Barak Ravid have a new report out on how super duper frustrated the Biden administration is becoming with Israeli warmongering. In typical Axios fashion the outlet reports that the White House is becoming “increasingly distrustful” of Israel’s planned military operations against Iran and Lebanon, but that, in typical Biden administration fashion, its American sources admit that the US “would very likely help Israel defend itself regardless” of whatever happens.


    Whoever wins the US election in November appears to be committed to riding with Israel down this path into the depths of hell.

    In an interview with 60 Minutes, Vice President Kamala Harris defended the Biden administration’s genocidal support for Israel, saying the weapons it has been giving them “allow Israel to defend itself.” She also named Iran as the number one enemy of the United States.

    In an appearance on The View, Harris was asked what she would have done differently from President Biden, and she said “There is not a thing that comes to mind.” Then later she added, “You asked me what is the difference between Joe Biden and me, that will be one of the differences: I’m going to have a Republican in my Cabinet.”

    And lest you make the mistake of thinking Trump would be any better, last week the former president said that Israel should attack Iran’s nuclear facilities, and criticized the Biden administration for not being sufficiently aggressive on this front.


    “They asked [Biden], what do you think about Iran, would you hit Iran?” Trump said at a campaign event on Friday. “And he goes, ‘As long as they don’t hit the nuclear stuff.’ That’s the thing you want to hit, right? I said I think he’s got that one wrong.”

    Anyone who still says Trump is a peacemaker is a damn fool. Statements like this are in full alignment with the absolute worst warmongers in Washington like John Bolton or Lindsey Graham.

    Anyway, that’s where we’re at right now. That’s the trajectory the US empire has us on. An active genocide and ethnic cleansing in Gaza, the threat of another extermination campaign in Lebanon, and acceleration toward a direct war of unimaginable horror with Iran.

    These psychos must be stopped.

    VERSIONE IN ITALIANO

    Unlike other investigations, this one will be shorter.

    Especially because too many American and European idiots have not yet understood the tremendous danger to which Biden-NATO’s wars in Ukraine and the Middle East are exposing us. If you can wake them up, you will give a great beneficial gift to humanity before it’s too late!!!

    Hezbollah Missiles impact Haifa city, IOF admits many Dead and Injured

    But above all, they have not even remotely grasped that some of the world’s leaders, more servants of the New World Order than responsible for the fate of their nations, are leading us towards an abyss well prefigured by the Book of the Apocalypse of St. John to which we have dedicated an exhaustive geopolitical-theological investigation.

    Iran’s Nuclear Test or Natural Earthquake?

    Even the British newspaper The Guardian, out of respect for the truth that has been completely hidden in the Italian mainstream for many years and in particular after the massacres caused by the adverse reactions of the Covid vaccines, had to publish an article analyzing the geopolitical situation in the Middle East in which it points out enormous problems that contrast with the easy Zionist-Masonic policy of US and UE:

    “The core fact remains that Iran has proven it can hit Israel hard if it so chose,” writes Decker Eveleth, an analyst with the research and analysis group CNA, who analysed the satellite images for a blogpost.

    “Airbases are hard targets, and the sort of target that likely won’t produce many casualties. Iran could choose a different target – say, a densely packed IDF ground forces base, or a target within a civilian area – anda missile strike there would produce a large number of [casualties].”

    FREEMASONRY & ZIONISM – 1. Apocalyptic “Cataclysms” by Synagogue of Satan: Genocides in Palestine & Plotted Pandemic for Lethal Vaccines.

    In the longer term, Israel may target Iranian ballistic missile production lines and infrastructure in order to prevent attacks. Benjamin Netanyahu has long argued that the Iranian ballistic missile programme is as dangerous to Israel as its nuclear programme is.

    «In the longer term, Israel may target Iranian ballistic missile production lines and infrastructure in order to prevent attacks. Benjamin Netanyahu has long argued that the Iranian ballistic missile programme is as dangerous to Israel as its nuclear programme is» adds Andrew Roth in his analysis on The Guardian that prefigures an apocalyptic scenario already announced by Russia.

    A Diabolical Project that goes beyond the Military

    The explanation of these potentially suicidal maneuvers is complex from a geopolitical and military perspective but extremely simple from a spiritual one…

    US OK TO ISRAELI INVASION IN LEBANON. BIDEN forces MIDDLE EAST toward HUGE WAR. To Engage Moscow and Weaken the Russian Army in Ukraine

    Since this entire project of genocide and devastation is animated by diabolical Zionism, Netanyahu does not care how many victims (also Israeli) he will be able to cause because they are all prey that his satanic vision and exaltation leads towards the Hell to which he is devoted (if they are not ready to die in the Grace of God as the Queen of Peace of Medjugorje teaches).

    “I’ve told the Americans, I’ve told my colleagues in the White House and the US Department of State that you are pushing [the world] towards a nuclear catastrophe,” Russian Ambassador to the US Anatoly Antonov said.

    “TOWARDS A NUCLEAR CATASTROPHE”. Russia Warning on US Policies in Middle East and Ukraine. Arrest’s Risk for NATO Chief

    Despite this, both the American Democratic President Joseph Biden, the great director of the plot that unleashed the war in Ukraine, and the Republican challenger for the White House (of the Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris) Donald Trump insist on wanting to face a war against Iran that could become nuclear due to the atomic warheads developed by Tehran especially after the treacherous assassination of the Iranian general Qadeem Soleimani, commander of the Quds Forces of the Pasdaran who helped Syria defeat the Islamic State created by the Caliph Al Baghdadi with the complicity of the American counter-espionage CIA and Israeli MOSSAD who were responsible for the latest escalations in the Middle East.

    NASRALLAH KILLED by American-Made Bombs! Iran: “US complicit with the Zionists in Terror Attack vs the Hezbollah chief”

    But the third most terrible danger for Italy, Europe and the entire West comes from the fact that any nuclear explosion in Iran, Israel, Lebanon or Palestine will produce winds of highly harmful waste – and potentially lethal in the short and medium term – like the toxic cloud that was produced by the explosion in a depleted uranium-based ammunition depot in Ukraine in May 2023 and hidden by all the mainstream media to minimize the direct consequences in Europe of the conflict between Moscow and Kiev.

    This “flood” of radioactivity could cause not only hundreds but thousands and thousands of deaths in a few months or years… One of the greatest Italian scholars explained it in a previous article on Gospa News.

    On the first anniversary of Israel’s genocidal war on the Gaza Strip, the Israeli army continued its deadly strikes on Monday, killing 42 Palestinians across the devastated enclave.

    The health ministry in Lebanon said that Israeli airstrikes killed 22 people and injured 110 others in southern Lebanon on Sunday.

    On October 7th, top US politicians focus on crime against Israel, barely nod to Palestinian pain, ignore US complicity

    President Biden: On this day last year, the sun rose on what was supposed to be a joyous Jewish holiday. By sunset, October 7 had become the deadliest day for the Jewish people since the Holocaust…We will not stop working to achieve a ceasefire deal in Gaza that brings the hostages home, allows for a surge in humanitarian aid to ease the suffering on the ground, assures Israel’s security, and ends this war.

    VP Kamala Harris: We must uphold the commitment to repair the world, an idea that has been passed on throughout generations of the Jewish people and across many faiths. And to that end, we must work to relieve the immense suffering of innocent Palestinians in Gaza who have experienced so much pain and loss over the year.

    Former U.S. President Donald Trump commemorated the one-year anniversary of the October 7 attack by lighting a memorial candle at his resort in Florida. In his comments, he said, “I will not allow the Jewish state to be threatened with destruction, I will not allow another Holocaust of the Jewish people, I will not allow a jihad to be waged on America or its allies, and I will support Israel’s right to win its war on terror.”

    Trump also spoke about antisemitism, claiming it is only a problem within the Democratic Party: “The Republican Party has not been infected by this horrible disease, and hopefully it won’t be. It won’t be as long I’m in charge.”

    The armed wing of the Palestinian Hamas resistance group on Monday added historical context when it said the Al-Aqsa Flood operation on Oct. 7 last year “was preemptive as the (Israeli) occupation aggression reached a dangerous level.”

    The spokesperson added, “A year has passed and we are still fighting in an asymmetrical battle a criminal enemy that doesn’t hesitate to commit all crimes.”

    Israel has killed 146 doctors in Gaza: Ministry

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    Israel has killed 146 doctors from various specialties in Gaza, while most medicines and medical supplies have been depleted amid the Israeli military’s genocide in the enclave, the Gaza Health Ministry announced Sunday.

    In a statement marking one year since the start of the Israeli genocide, the ministry said that 83% of medical supplies and 60% of medications are unavailable in hospitals and health centers.

    The ministry also noted that there are 25,000 patients and injured people in need of treatment outside the besieged territory.

    A few of the many children wounded by shrapnel – some also severely burned – in the course of Israel's now nine-month-long attack on Gaza. The weapons create small pieces of shrapnel that leave barely discernible entry wounds but create extensive destruction inside the body.

    Israeli Army Reservist Shown Reading Talmud Passage to Cuffed Palestinians in Viral Video – is this even legal?

    Ha’aretz reports:

    A video circulated on social media shows an IDF reservist soldier reading a passage from the Talmud to three cuffed Palestinians in the West Bank.

    In the footage, which was filmed in recent weeks, the soldier is seen reciting the passage while the three Palestinians lie on the ground, blindfolded. Another soldier, who filmed the incident, can be heard laughing and encouraging the reservist. The social media post has been removed.

    In response, the IDF announced that both soldiers involved have been suspended from their duties and will face disciplinary action. The Israeli army added, “The soldier’s behavior in the video is serious and does not align with the values of the IDF or the standards expected of its soldiers.”



    Something is happening in northern Gaza – who is telling the truth?

    Various agencies report:

    The Jerusalem Post reports: The IDF has expanded the humanitarian area in Al-Mawasi in northern Gaza [to accommodate Palestinians it has expelled from Jabaliya and other locations in the north], it announced Sunday morning.

    This expansion included field hospitals established since the outbreak of the war, tent compounds, and supplies of food, water, and medicine.

    Local Palestinians in Jabaliya report that there is nowhere to receive healthcare, nowhere to live, as buildings have been turned to rubble, As has been reported for 12 months, Israel has destroyed hospitals, schools and residential areas

    According to Refugees International: In some areas of Gaza, prolonged food scarcity has driven families to desperate measures. Lacking access to food for extended periods, some Gaza residents told Refugees International that they resorted to consuming whatever was available, including non-food items.

    A resident from northern Gaza reported that his family went without food for 17 days during the early months of the war, with the scarcity lasting nearly four months. To survive, the family ate animal feed, local weeds, and tree leaves. He recounted, “For four months, the north had no food supplies, and people ate tree leaves.”

    One UN official told Refugees International that Gaza was “always two weeks away from a famine” due to the IDF’s refusal to normalize free-flowing aid. UN health officials have reported a significant surge in documented malnutrition cases, with a 170 percent increase across Gaza and a staggering 300 percent rise in the northern region.

    Far from providing food, water, and medicine to the people of Gaza, Israel is preventing it – and has been for the last year.



    From Anas Alsharif, journalist for Al Jazeera Arabic: “The Israeli occupation forces are committing a series of massacres against civilians in Jabalia camp and Jabalia al-Balad city, where the bodies of martyrs and wounded are spread in the streets, while ambulance and emergency teams are unable to evacuate them due to repeated targeting by drones.”

    Israel’s year of war on the West Bank

    Mondoweiss reports:

    For a year now in the West Bank, Israel has launched a war against Palestinians. While the genocidal assault on Gaza has claimed the lives of tens of thousands, and according to some estimates, hundreds of thousands, the onslaught in the West Bank has ramped up in the form of displacement, the unprecedented expansion of settlements, rampant settler violence and pogroms, economic warfare, mass incarceration, and the launching of a military offensive on centers of resistance across the West Bank.

    As of this writing, Israeli forces and settlers have killed 743 Palestinians, wounded 5,250, and displaced 5,947. But underlying these numbers is a far deeper reality of Israeli settler encroachment and creeping annexation in the West Bank.

    The Israeli offensive in the West Bank is nothing random, nor is it detached from Israel’s policies in Gaza. It follows a strategy in line with Israel’s stated plans to annex the West Bank and undermine any possibilities for a future Palestinian state.

    Although these Israeli policies have been employed by Israel for decades of occupation in the West Bank, observers argue that Israel’s strategy in the West Bank after October 7 has aimed to create a new political reality, heading towards achieving definitive Israeli control over the West Bank.

    “It’s like being in an abusive relationship with the world”: Palestinians in the diaspora grapple with collective grief

    Middle East Eye reports:

    “We have no map to understand the depth, the breadth, the transgenerational component to it, the multi-generational component to it, the persistence of it, and the impact that it’s going to have on our current generation and generations to follow,” psychiatry professor at the University of California San Francisco, Jess Ghannam told viewers of an online webcast, just weeks into the war.

    “In the Palestinian context, there is no ‘post’ in post-traumatic stress disorder,” Ghannam said.

    Aside from the week-long ceasefire and prisoner swap in November, there has not been a day in the last 365, when air strikes, sniper fire or the threat of famine and disease have not targeted Palestinians in Gaza.

    “I’m watching this happen to my people. And I’m looking at these faces, and they look like me, and they sound like me, and they speak like me, and they have the same names as us, and they eat the same foods as us,” Safa Soueissi, a Palestinian American in Tulsa, Oklahoma, told Middle East Eye.

    “So if my children were on the street and they were hit by a car and they were bleeding out on the streets, nobody’s gonna care, because they’re Palestinian children?”

    “I’ve never personally experienced this amount of grief in my life,” Nada al-Hanooti, a Palestinian American from Dearborn, Michigan, said in January. “It’s like being in an abusive relationship with the world. So it also makes me kind of go crazy with rage.”

    Israeli forces beat renowned Palestinian activist to death, kill a 12-year-old child

    Various agencies report:

    Middle East Eye: Israeli forces on Monday beat to death a renowned 66-year-old Palestinian activist after raiding his home in the occupied West Bank.

    Ziad Abu Helaiel was a popular tribal figure in the West Bank, famous for peacefully confronting Israeli soldiers during demonstrations and standing between them and protesters.

    Abu Helaiel’s son, Murad, told AFP that around 3am on Monday, a group of Israeli forces stormed their home in Dura, south of Hebron, trying to arrest one of their relatives.

    “My father tried to stop them, so they struck him twice on the chest, then pushed him, causing his chest to collide with the door, which led to his martyrdom,” Murad said.

    The soldiers then withdrew from the house, leaving Abu Helaiel unconscious on the floor. The activist was taken to hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

    IMEMC: On Monday, Israeli soldiers invaded the Qalandia refugee camp, north of occupied Jerusalem, in the West Bank, fatally shot a Palestinian child in the abdomen, shot seven other Palestinians, including three children, and abducted twenty citizens.

    In a statement, the Palestinian Health Ministry has confirmed that the soldiers killed a child, identified as Hatem Sami Hisham Gheith, 12.

    South Africa to present new evidence of Israel’s genocide in Gaza to ICJ

    Middle East Monitor reports:

    South Africa intends to present new evidence in the genocide case filed against Israel at the International Court of Justice (ICJ), President Cyril Ramaphosa said Monday.

    In a statement on the first anniversary of Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza, Ramaphosa said the memorandum that his country will submit this month contains “detailed evidence” proving that Israel committed genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.

    He called on Israel to implement the provisional measures issued by the court in January, March and May.

    South Africa filed a lawsuit against Israel before the World Court in December 2023 on the grounds that it violated the 1948 United Nations Convention on the Prevention of Genocide.

    White House ‘continuing’ to advise Israel on response to Iranian attack

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    White House spokesperson Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters Monday that the Biden administration is “continuing to have discussions with the Israelis about their response, obviously responding to Iran’s attack, almost 200 missiles right that went flying into Israel. Our commitment continues to be very clear on Israel’s security, and that’s ironclad.”

    US President Joe Biden suggested last week that Israel should not strike Iran’s oil or nuclear facilities.

    NOTE: The Israeli paper Jerusalem Post reported Sunday that the US has offered Israel a “compensation package” if it avoids hitting certain targets in its planned attack on Iran.

    The package would include military aid and a guarantee that the US would provide total diplomatic support.

    “Israeli officials reportedly answered, ‘We consider the United States and listen to them. But we will do anything and everything we can to protect the citizens and the security of the State of Israel.’”

    ALSO NOTE: Mainstream media and pro-Israel leaders ignore the context of Iran’s attack, framing it instead as somehow unprovoked. Iran’s foreign minister, Abbas Araghchi, however, correctly declared that Iran’s missile attack was an act of “self-defense” that only targeted military and security sites used for attacks on Gaza and Lebanon.

    He pointed out that Iran’s measured attack came “after exercising tremendous restraint for almost two months, to give space for a ceasefire in Gaza.”

    The foreign minister added that Iran’s action was “concluded” unless Israel “decides to invite further retaliation” – words that indicate that Western leaders who want an end to the conflict ought to counsel Israel to let the matter drop.

    Pope Francis slams world’s ‘shameful inability’ to stop Israel-Palestine war

    Reuters reports:

    Pope Francis criticized, on Monday, what he called the “shameful inability” of the international community to end the war in the Middle East, one year after Hamas’s devastating attack on Israel, Reuters reports.

    “It seems that few people care about what is most needed and what is most desired: dialogue and peace,” he wrote. “Violence never brings peace. History proves this, yet years and years of conflict seem to have taught us nothing.”

    Francis has recently become more vocal in his criticism of Israel’s military campaign.

    On 29 September, the 87-year-old Pontiff criticized Israeli air strikes in Lebanon that killed Hezbollah leader, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, as well as non-combatants, suggesting the air strikes went “beyond morality”.

    Earlier in September, the Pope called Israel’s actions in Lebanon “unacceptable” and urged the international community to do everything possible to halt the fighting.

    In his letter on Monday, Francis directly addressed Gazans:

    I am with you, the people of Gaza, long embattled and in dire straits. You are in my thoughts and prayers daily.

    I am with you, who have been forced to leave your homes, to abandon schooling and work and to find a place of refuge from the bombing. …

    I am with you, who are afraid to look up for fear of fire raining down from the skies.

    Earthquake in Iranian desert – could it be a covert nuclear weapons test?

    The Cradle reports:

    On 5 October 2024, a 4.5-magnitude seismic event occurred in Iran’s Semnan province, sparking speculation that Iran has tested a nuclear weapon for the first time.

    Such a seismic event is typically the result of an earthquake, but speculation has arisen on social media suggesting the event was instead an underground nuclear test carried out by the Islamic Republic in response to Israeli threats to bomb Tehran’s nuclear energy and oil facilities.

    The speculation that Iran carried out a nuclear test comes just days after the Heritage Foundation, a right-wing think tank in the US, published a report stating that “Iran can produce nuclear weapons far more rapidly than expected.”

    ‘A f***ing liar’ and ‘a bad guy’: Quotes from new Bob Woodward book show Biden’s growing frustration with Benjamin Netanyahu

    CNN reports:

    CNN reported on quotes U.S. President Joe Biden said to and about Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, that appeared in a new book by veteran journalist Bob Woodward. According to the book, Biden said of Netanyahu privately earlier in the year: “That son of a bitch, Bibi Netanyahu, he’s a bad guy. He’s a bad fucking guy!”

    In another interaction, Biden asked Netnayhu: What’s your strategy, man?” in an April phone call. The Israeli prime minister answered, “We have to go into Rafah,” to which Biden responded, “Bibi, you’ve got no strategy.”

    “I know he’s going to do something, but the way I limit it is tell him to ‘do nothing,'” Biden told his advisers, according to Woodward, but his frustration with Netanyahu boiled over as the war continued to escalate.

    “He’s a fucking liar,” Biden said privately of Netanyahu, after Israel went into Rafah, Woodward writes. “Bibi, what the fuck?” Biden yelled at Netanyahu in July after an Israeli airstrike killed a top Hezbollah military commander and three civilians in Beirut, according to Woodward.

    “You know the perception of Israel around the world increasingly is that you’re a rogue state, a rogue actor,” Biden said to Netanyahu, who responded that the target was “one of the leading terrorists.”

    “We saw an opportunity and took it,” Netanyahu said. “The harder you hit, the more successful you’re going to be in the negotiation.”

    Palestine Chronicle: One Year into Israel’s Genocide, Gaza Suffers Massive Environmental Damage

    STATISTICS OCTOBER 7, 2023 – OCTOBER 7, 2024:

    Palestinian death toll from October 7, 2023 – October 7, 2024: at least 42,708* ( 41,965 in Gaza* – 11,308 women (30%), 16,859 children as of September 5. [The Ministry’s figures have been contested by the Israeli authorities, although they have been accepted as accurate by Israeli intelligence services, the UN, and WHO. These data are supported by independent analyses, comparing changes in the number of deaths of UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) staff with those reported by the Ministry, which found claims of data fabrication implausible.]

    This is expected to be a significant undercount since thousands of those killed have yet to be identified – and at least 743 in the West Bank (~160 children). This does not include an estimated 10,000 more still buried under rubble (4,900 women and children). Euro-Med Monitor reports 49,032 Palestinian deaths.

    Lancet: “Applying a conservative estimate of four indirect deaths per one direct death9 to the 37,396 deaths reported, it is not implausible to estimate that up to 186 000 or even more deaths could be attributable to the current conflict in Gaza.

    Ralph Nader earlier estimated 300,000 Palestinians may have been killed in Gaza.

    At least 45 Palestinians have died in Israeli prisons (27 from Gaza, 25 from West Bank).
    At least 41 Palestinians have died due to malnutrition (at least 37 of them children)**.
    About 1.9 million of Gaza’s 2.3 million population are currently displaced.
    Almost 500,000 Gazans are currently experiencing catastrophic levels of food insecurity.
    Palestinian injuries from October 7 – October 7, 2024: at least 103,790 (including at least 97,590 in Gaza and 6,200 in the West Bank, including 830 children). [It remains unknown how many Americans are among the casualties in Gaza.]

    Reported Israeli death toll from October 7, 2023 – October 7, 2024: ~1,457 (~1,139 on October 7, 2023, of which ~32 were Americans, and ~36 were children); 293*** military forces since the ground invasion began in Gaza; 25 military and civilians in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Israel) and~10,000 injured.

    The death toll in Lebanon since October 8, 2023 is at least 2,083 (at least 127 children, 194 women) and 9,869 injuries (690 of them children). An estimated 1.2 million have been displaced.

    NOTE: It is unknown at this time how many of the deaths and injuries of Israelis on October 7 were caused by Israeli soldiers.

    *Previously, IAK did not include 471 Gazans killed in the Al Ahli hospital blast since the source of the projectile was being disputed. However, given that much evidence points to Israel as the culprit, Israel had previously bombed the hospital and has attacked many others, Israel is prohibiting outside experts from investigating the scene, and since the UN and other agencies are including the deaths from the attack in their cumulative totals, if Americans knew is now also doing so.

    **Euro-Med Monitor reports that Gaza’s elderly are dying at an alarmingly high rate. The majority die at home and are buried either close to their residences or in makeshift graves dispersed across the Strip. There are currently more than 140 such cemeteries. Additionally, according to Euromed, thousands have died from starvation, malnourishment, and inadequate medical care; these are considered indirect victims as they were not registered in hospitals.

    ***The figure does not include the reportedly 56 Israeli soldiers – nearly 16% of the total Israeli military deaths – killed due to friendly fire in Gaza and other military-related accidents.

    † For most of the conflict, women and children accounted for about 70% of deaths in Gaza, with children making up a little over 40% of those killed, according to official statistics.

By sunset, October 7 had become the deadliest day for the Jewish people since the Holocaust…We will not stop working to achieve a ceasefire deal in Gaza that brings the hostages home, allows for a surge in humanitarian aid to ease the suffering on the ground, assures Israel’s security, and ends this war. VP Kamala Harris: We must uphold the commitment to repair the world, an idea that has been passed on throughout generations of the Jewish people and across many faiths. And to that end, we must work to relieve the immense suffering of innocent Palestinians in Gaza who have experienced so much pain and loss over the year. Former U.S. President Donald Trump commemorated the one-year anniversary of the October 7 attack by lighting a memorial candle at his resort in Florida. In his comments, he said, “I will not allow the Jewish state to be threatened with destruction, I will not allow another Holocaust of the Jewish people, I will not allow a jihad to be waged on America or its allies, and I will support Israel’s right to win its war on terror.” Trump also spoke about antisemitism, claiming it is only a problem within the Democratic Party: “The Republican Party has not been infected by this horrible disease, and hopefully it won’t be. It won’t be as long I’m in charge.” The armed wing of the Palestinian Hamas resistance group on Monday added historical context when it said the Al-Aqsa Flood operation on Oct. 7 last year “was preemptive as the (Israeli) occupation aggression reached a dangerous level.” The spokesperson added, “A year has passed and we are still fighting in an asymmetrical battle a criminal enemy that doesn’t hesitate to commit all crimes.” A Palestinian boy sits atop the rubble of a destroyed building in the Jabalia refugee camp on 30 May 2024 A Palestinian boy sits atop the rubble of a destroyed building in the Jabalia refugee camp on 30 May 2024 (MEE/Enas Rami) Israel has killed 146 doctors in Gaza: Ministry Anadolu Agency reports: Israel has killed 146 doctors from various specialties in Gaza, while most medicines and medical supplies have been depleted amid the Israeli military’s genocide in the enclave, the Gaza Health Ministry announced Sunday.

(collage) Israeli Army Reservist Shown Reading Talmud Passage to Cuffed Palestinians in Viral Video – is this even legal? Ha’aretz reports: A video circulated on social media shows an IDF reservist soldier reading a passage from the Talmud to three cuffed Palestinians in the West Bank. In the footage, which was filmed in recent weeks, the soldier is seen reciting the passage while the three Palestinians lie on the ground, blindfolded. Another soldier, who filmed the incident, can be heard laughing and encouraging the reservist. The social media post has been removed. In response, the IDF announced that both soldiers involved have been suspended from their duties and will face disciplinary action. The Israeli army added, “The soldier’s behavior in the video is serious and does not align with the values of the IDF or the standards expected of its soldiers.” Something is happening in northern Gaza – who is telling the truth? Various agencies report: The Jerusalem Post reports: The IDF has expanded the humanitarian area in Al-Mawasi in northern Gaza [to accommodate Palestinians it has expelled from Jabaliya and other locations in the north], it announced Sunday morning. This expansion included field hospitals established since the outbreak of the war, tent compounds, and supplies of food, water, and medicine. Local Palestinians in Jabaliya report that there is nowhere to receive healthcare, nowhere to live, as buildings have been turned to rubble, As has been reported for 12 months, Israel has destroyed hospitals, schools and residential areas According to Refugees International: In some areas of Gaza, prolonged food scarcity has driven families to desperate measures. Lacking access to food for extended periods, some Gaza residents told Refugees International that they resorted to consuming whatever was available, including non-food items. A resident from northern Gaza reported that his family went without food for 17 days during the early months of the war, with the scarcity lasting nearly four months. To survive, the family ate animal feed, local weeds, and tree leaves. He recounted, “For four months, the north had no food supplies, and people ate tree leaves.” One UN official told Refugees International that Gaza was “always two weeks away from a famine” due to the IDF’s refusal to normalize free-flowing aid. UN health officials have reported a significant surge in documented malnutrition cases, with a 170 percent increase across Gaza and a staggering 300 percent rise in the northern region. Far from providing food, water, and medicine to the people of Gaza, Israel is preventing it – and has been for the last year. From Anas Alsharif, journalist for Al Jazeera Arabic: “The Israeli occupation forces are committing a series of massacres against civilians in Jabalia camp and Jabalia al-Balad city, where the bodies of martyrs and wounded are spread in the streets, while ambulance and emergency teams are unable to evacuate them due to repeated targeting by drones.” Here the charred hulk of an Unrwa clinic in the Jabalia refugee camp can be seen after it was torched by Israeli forces before they left on 30 May 2024 Here the charred hulk of an UNRWA medical clinic in the Jabalia refugee camp can be seen after it was torched by Israeli forces before they left on 30 May 2024 (MEE/Enas Rami) Israel’s year of war on the West Bank Mondoweiss reports: For a year now in the West Bank, Israel has launched a war against Palestinians. While the genocidal assault on Gaza has claimed the lives of tens of thousands, and according to some estimates, hundreds of thousands, the onslaught in the West Bank has ramped up in the form of displacement, the unprecedented expansion of settlements, rampant settler violence and pogroms, economic warfare, mass incarceration, and the launching of a military offensive on centers of resistance across the West Bank. As of this writing, Israeli forces and settlers have killed 743 Palestinians, wounded 5,250, and displaced 5,947. But underlying these numbers is a far deeper reality of Israeli settler encroachment and creeping annexation in the West Bank. The Israeli offensive in the West Bank is nothing random, nor is it detached from Israel’s policies in Gaza. It follows a strategy in line with Israel’s stated plans to annex the West Bank and undermine any possibilities for a future Palestinian state. Although these Israeli policies have been employed by Israel for decades of occupation in the West Bank, observers argue that Israel’s strategy in the West Bank after October 7 has aimed to create a new political reality, heading towards achieving definitive Israeli control over the West Bank.

Aside from the week-long ceasefire and prisoner swap in November, there has not been a day in the last 365, when air strikes, sniper fire or the threat of famine and disease have not targeted Palestinians in Gaza. “I’m watching this happen to my people. And I’m looking at these faces, and they look like me, and they sound like me, and they speak like me, and they have the same names as us, and they eat the same foods as us,” Safa Soueissi, a Palestinian American in Tulsa, Oklahoma, told Middle East Eye. “So if my children were on the street and they were hit by a car and they were bleeding out on the streets, nobody’s gonna care, because they’re Palestinian children?” “I’ve never personally experienced this amount of grief in my life,” Nada al-Hanooti, a Palestinian American from Dearborn, Michigan, said in January. “It’s like being in an abusive relationship with the world.

Ziad Abu Helaiel was a popular tribal figure in the West Bank, famous for peacefully confronting Israeli soldiers during demonstrations and standing between them and protesters. Abu Helaiel’s son, Murad, told AFP that around 3am on Monday, a group of Israeli forces stormed their home in Dura, south of Hebron, trying to arrest one of their relatives. “My father tried to stop them, so they struck him twice on the chest, then pushed him, causing his chest to collide with the door, which led to his martyrdom,” Murad said. The soldiers then withdrew from the house, leaving Abu Helaiel unconscious on the floor. The activist was taken to hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

Our commitment continues to be very clear on Israel’s security, and that’s ironclad.” US President Joe Biden suggested last week that Israel should not strike Iran’s oil or nuclear facilities. NOTE: The Israeli paper Jerusalem Post reported Sunday that the US has offered Israel a “compensation package” if it avoids hitting certain targets in its planned attack on Iran. The package would include military aid and a guarantee that the US would provide total diplomatic support. “Israeli officials reportedly answered, ‘We consider the United States and listen to them. But we will do anything and everything we can to protect the citizens and the security of the State of Israel.’” ALSO NOTE: Mainstream media and pro-Israel leaders ignore the context of Iran’s attack, framing it instead as somehow unprovoked.

    (October 7th, 2023) Palestinian resistance launches surprise attack on Israel

    After decades of Israeli occupation and human rights abuses, and after a 20-month-long mass nonviolent effort, Palestinians in Gaza launched a surprise operation against Israel on early Saturday morning, October 7th. Its scale is unprecedented, involving aerial, sea and ground operations. Details are only beginning to emerge.

    Israel immediately began bombing Gaza and has turned off electricity to the enclave, leaving most of its two million inhabitants in the dark and hospitals dangerously impacted. There are now 200 Israelis dead, 9000 injured, and an unknown number captured; and 232 Palestinians dead and 1,600 injured.

    Israeli forces, partly funded by the $13 million dollars per day that U.S. politicians have voted for them, are one of the world’s most powerful militaries, their weaponry vastly dwarfing Palestinians’. Today’s Palestinian land incursions largely consisted of individuals riding motorcycles and pickup trucks.

    WHY DID THEY DO IT? Hamas spokesperson Khaled Qadomi told Al Jazeera that the group’s military operation is in “response to all the atrocities the Palestinians have faced over the decades,” and the Hamas deputy chief said the group is engaged “in a battle for freedom.” Hamas military chief Muhammad Deif explained: “We have decided to put an end to all of the occupation’s crimes”; senior Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh indicated that recent provocations at the al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem were a major reason for the surprise attack.

    Other Israeli provocations include increased violence against Palestinians by illegal Israeli settlers, Israel’s treatment of Palestinian prisoners, and a spike in killings of Palestinians by the Israeli military. 2023 was the deadliest year on record for Palestinians in the West Bank, including for children.

    Hamas fighters broke down the barrier wall that imprisons Gaza and entered several Israeli communities near the border. They took over 200 prisoners, which they hope to exchange for Palestinian prisoners, and also captured a number of Israeli military vehicles.

    After being surprised by the scope of the Palestinian offensive, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced, “Citizens of Israel, we are at war [and will] fight back on a scale and intensity that the enemy has so far not experienced. The enemy will pay an unprecedented price.”

    In Gaza, Israeli warplanes reportedly destroyed a 5-story residential building, hit a hospital, and targeted an ambulance.

    Some media outlets refer to the Palestinian resistance fighters as “terrorists” – but under international law, armed resistance is the right of occupied people.

    Israel's war has left the Gaza Strip in ruins and killed over 40,000 Palestinians, including 16,000 children.

    Israeli troops bombard, besiege northern Gaza as ethnic cleansing unfolds

    AntiWar reports:

    The Israeli military has launched a fresh assault on northern Gaza and ordered all Palestinian civilians living in the north to head south, signaling Israel may be enacting an ethnic cleansing plan that has been reviewed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

    Known as the “general’s plan” since it was drawn up by retired IDF generals, the plan would result in the complete ethnic cleansing of Palestinians from areas in Gaza north of the Netzarim Corridor, a strip of land controlled by the Israeli military that separates Gaza City and other parts of the north from the south.

    Itsik Zuaret, a reporter for Israel’s public broadcaster Kan, said the general’s plan was underway. “In the future, the entire northern area of ​​the Gaza Strip will be cleansed according to the general’s plan,” he wrote on X.

    The first step of the plan is to transfer the estimated 300,000 Palestinian civilians out of northern Gaza, then impose a full siege on the north to starve out remaining Hamas fighters and other Palestinians who remain. Northern Gaza would be declared a “closed military zone,” meaning anyone who remains will be targeted by the IDF.

    Palestinian leaders are encouraging residents of the north to stay, reminding them there is no safe place in Gaza.

    ANADOLU AGENCY ADDS: At least 30 Palestinians were killed and dozens injured in Israeli airstrikes on northern Gaza early Sunday, marking the deadliest Israeli escalation since May.

    Palestinian medics reported that 30 bodies and several injured people were transported to hospitals in northern Gaza following Israeli airstrikes that struck Jabalia and Beit Lahia.

    NOTE: In 1948, Israel dispossessed 750,000 Palestinian people and exiled them permanently to Gaza and other locations in what Palestinians refer to as the Nakba (“catastrophe”). Many Palestinians see the current situation as another Nakba – already 75% of the population of Gaza has been internally displaced – and fear that they will never be allowed to return to their homes.

    Forced transfer of a people group is a crime against humanity.

    Report: US To Give Israel ‘Compensation’ If It Hits Only US-Approved Targets in Iran

    AntiWar reports:

    The US has offered Israel a “compensation package” if it avoids hitting certain targets in its planned attack on Iran, The Jerusalem Post reported Sunday, citing the Israeli TV channel Kan 11.

    Amichai Stein, a correspondent for Kan 11, said the package would include military aid and a guarantee that the US would provide total diplomatic support.

    “An American official said, ‘If you don’t hit targets A, B, C, we will provide you with diplomatic protection and an arms package,” Chair said. “Israeli officials responded saying, ‘We consider the United States and listen to them. But we will do anything and everything we can to protect the citizens and the security of the State of Israel.’”

    The US is coordinating with Israel on its plans to respond to the Iranian missile barrage that hit Israel last week, which came in response to several Israeli escalations throughout the region, including the July 31 assassination of Hamas’s political chief, Ismail Haniyeh, in Tehran.

    The US has said it will ensure Iran faces “severe consequences” but has warned against certain types of attacks, including attacks on Iran’s civilian nuclear facilities. President Biden said the US and Israel were discussing the idea of strikes on Iranian oil sites, but later said if he was in Israel’s shoes, he would be thinking about “other alternatives than striking oil fields.”

    NOTE: Mainstream media and pro-Israel leaders ignore the context of Iran’s attack, framing it instead as somehow unprovoked. Iran’s foreign minister, Abbas Araghchi, however, correctly declared that Iran’s missile attack was an act of “self-defense” that only targeted military and security sites used for attacks on Gaza and Lebanon.

    He pointed out that Iran’s measured attack came “after exercising tremendous restraint for almost two months, to give space for a ceasefire in Gaza.”

    The foreign minister added that Iran’s action was “concluded” unless Israel “decides to invite further retaliation” – words that indicate that Western leaders who want an end to the conflict ought to counsel Israel to let the matter drop.

    Report: Israel’s year-long attacks on religious freedom

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    Israel destroyed 611 mosques, eight cemeteries and three churches and caused the partial destruction of 214 mosques during its year-long aggression against the besieged Gaza Strip which began on 7 October 2023, the Palestinian Ministry of Endowments has said.

    In a report issued Sunday, the ministry pointed out that over the past year, Jewish settlers in the occupied West Bank have stormed and desecrated Al-Aqsa Mosque 262 times, performing Jewish prayers in the Muslim holy site.

    According to the report, Israeli National Security Minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, has stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque along with ministers of his far-right government six times, and threatened to establish a Jewish synagogue on the site. Ben-Gvir has relentlessly worked to intensify the Jewish presence at the mosque through government support and by giving it a legal cover, it added.

    The report indicated that “extremist Jewish religious groups have attacked and spat on Christians and Christian pilgrims in the occupied city of Jerusalem, specifically around ​​the Church of the Prison of Christ, and restricted them during Christian holidays, and prevented them from reaching the Nativity Church in Bethlehem in southern occupied West Bank and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in East Jerusalem.”

    Gaza’s Ministry of Endowments and Religious Affairs also said that 19 of 60 cemeteries were targeted, with bodies exhumed and desecrated.

    The ministry also reported that 238 of its staff members were killed and 19 were detained by Israeli forces.

    Israel issues new evacuation orders for 26 towns in southern Lebanon

    Various agencies report:

    The Israeli army ordered civilians in 26 border towns in southern Lebanon on Sunday to evacuate immediately amid air and ground attacks on the country.

    Military spokesman Avichay Adraee asked the Lebanese residents to leave their homes and move north of the Awali River.

    A key ally of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has proposed the creation of an “empty” buffer zone in southern Lebanon.

    Writing in Israel Hayom, an outlet traditionally supportive of Netanyahu, former national security advisor Meir Ben-Shabbat said that emptying the border area in Lebanon of people would be one way to ensure that residents in northern Israel can return home without facing attacks.

    “The advantage of this alternative is the relatively low costs of enforcement and the fact that it can be made possible on a routine basis without serious dilemmas,” he wrote.

    “Another advantage of it is in the message it conveys: that terrorism against Israel causes a loss of territory.”

    NOTE: Forced transfer of a people group is a crime against humanity.

    Palestinian journalist killed in Israeli bombing after threats against his life

    Middle East Eye reports:

    Israeli forces killed a Palestinian journalist on Sunday, weeks after he received threatening messages instructing him to stop filming Israeli attacks in the Gaza Strip.

    Hassan Hamad, 19, died when his home in Jabalia refugee camp was struck by artillery fire.

    Hamad was reporting on the new Israeli incursion just moments before he was killed.

    A colleague with access to his account on X said that Hamad had been sending videos about the assault late into the night.

    During their last phone call at 6am (3am GMT), Hamad said: “There they are. There they are. It’s over.”

    A few months before his killing, Hamad shared a screenshot with his colleagues of a threatening WhatsApp message he received from an Israeli number.

    The message read: “Listen… If you continue spreading lies about Israel, we’ll come for you next and turn your family into… This is your last warning.”

    Lebanon calls for international pressure to end brutal Israeli attacks on medics, hospitals

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    Lebanese authorities called on Sunday for piling pressure on Israel to halt its attacks against the health sector in Lebanon amid air and ground attacks on the country.

    In a statement, the Lebanese Order of Nurses (ONS) accused Israel of deliberately targeting hospitals, doctors, nurses, and paramedics “in a blatant defiance of international laws and conventions,” and called on international groups to pressure Israel to cease.

    Israel has launched massive airstrikes on Lebanon against what it calls Hezbollah targets, killing more than 2,011 victims since Sept. 23, according to the Lebanese Health Ministry.

    At least 97 medical and emergency personnel have been killed and more than 10 hospitals damaged in the attacks.

    On 1st anniversary of Oct. 7, Israel imposing complete lockdown on West Bank

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    Israel has announced a complete lockdown on the occupied West Bank for Monday, marking the first anniversary of the Hamas attack of Oct. 7, 2023 and the start of Israel’s offensive on Gaza.

    The official broadcasting authority reported Sunday that Israeli authorities have decided to enforce a full security perimeter around the West Bank, closing the crossings that connect it to Israel and preventing the entry of Palestinian workers.

    In the occupied West Bank, at least 742 Palestinians, including children, have since been killed, nearly 6,200 others injured, and more than 10,900 arrested, according to Palestinian figures.

    Man attempts self-immolation at pro-Palestine protest near White House

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    A man attempted to self-immolate Saturday during a pro-Palestine protest near the White House, according to footage on social media.

    The man, who claimed to be a journalist, was seen in the video with burns to his left arm as those around him poured water on it. He raised his left arm high with flames engulfing it.

    The man is heard screaming that he is a journalist. “We spread the misinformation,” he screams at one point. “I’m a journalist and I said it was okay.”

    Police detained the man and established a perimeter around the area; one report said he was transported to an area hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

    Witnesses said the man is a CBS-affiliated journalist and he was accusing the network of “spreading misinformation.”

    Four people so far have staged self-immolations in the US to protest Washington’s support of the war in the Gaza Strip.

    Remembering Archbishop Desmond Tutu, defender of Palestine

    Middle East Monitor looks back:

    When the world lost Archbishop Desmond Tutu on 26 December 2021, it lost more than just a Nobel Peace Prize laureate or the former Archbishop of Cape Town. It lost a moral compass, a voice that refused to be silenced in the face of injustice, whether in the townships of South Africa or Israel’s illegal occupation of Palestine.

    Tutu displayed a rare foresight that was lacking in most public figures. As early as 2002, in an article for the Guardian titled ‘Apartheid in the Holy Land’ he described Israel as an apartheid state, a stance taken at a time when such comparisons were still relatively rare.

    The former US President Jimmy Carter was the only other global figure to describe Israel as such in a 2006 book titled ‘Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid’. Many have followed since, and over the past few years, a wall-to-wall consensus has formed within the international human rights community about Israel’s practice of apartheid.

    Talking to South African media, Tutu would say: “I have witnessed the systemic humiliation of Palestinian men, women and children by members of the Israeli security forces. Their humiliation is familiar to all black South Africans who were corralled and harassed and insulted and assaulted by the security forces of the apartheid government.”

    Often he’d describe the racism perpetrated by Israel as being worse than the racism in South Africa. “In many instances [Israeli apartheid] is worse” than South Africa under white minority rule, said Tutu in a 2012 interview with David Frost.

    Tutu’s journey to becoming a leading voice for Palestine began in the townships of South Africa, where he witnessed the daily indignities and injustices of apartheid. As Tutu rose to prominence in the Anglican Church and the anti-apartheid movement, he developed a theology that emphasised what he would describe as God’s concern for justice and human dignity.

    “If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor,” Tutu would say. “If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality.”

    In this 2012 interview with Sir David Frost he talks about how Israel’s occupation of the West Bank is ‘in many ways worse than apartheid in South Africa’:

    NOTE: Multiple human rights organizations have documented and reported on Israeli apartheid, including: Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, the Israeli human rights groups B’Tselem, and Yesh Din , the UN Special Rapporteur on Palestine, the UN Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia (ESCWA), and Harvard Law School’s International Human Rights Clinic.



    Iranian missiles ‘overwhelmed’ Israel’s air defenses: Wall St. Journal

    The Cradle reports:

    Satellite imagery shows that Iran’s barrage of ballistic missiles earlier this week was successful in overwhelming Israel’s air defenses, the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reported on 6 October.

    The Iranian attack on Israel demonstrated Iran’s advanced missile capabilities and caused major damage to three Israeli airbases, where as many as 32 of the roughly 180 Iranian missiles (18 percent) successfully hit within the bases’ perimeters, according to experts.

    WSJ concluded that future Iranian strikes “could have much more serious consequences if they target civilian infrastructure or heavily populated residential areas.”

    Iran fired the ballistic missiles at Israel on 1 October in response to a series of aggressions committed by Israel, including the assassination of high-level Hamas and Hezbollah leaders.

    The Iranian armed forces’ general staff has promised that, if Israel retaliates, Iran will answer with “widespread and comprehensive destruction” of infrastructure within Israel.

    Israeli Airstrikes Target Aid Trucks in Central Syria

    AntiWar reports:

    Israeli attacks against Syria continued apace over the weekend, with strikes reported against humanitarian aid trucks in the Homs Province of Central Syria. The trucks were carrying food and blankets, along with medical aid, from the Iraqi Red Crescent for those fleeing Israel’s attacks in Lebanon.

    Details are still emerging. The attacks reportedly took place in an industrial area, near a car factory. Three members of the relief teams sent from Iraq were reported wounded in the strikes, and their condition is not at present clear.

    Israel has reportedly been attacking Syria almost daily since its ground invasion of Lebanon started.

    Shooting operation kills one Israeli officer, injures several in Beersheba

    The Cradle reports:

    One female Israeli officer was killed and ten people wounded, two of them critically, in a shooting operation at the central bus station in the city of Beersheba in southern Israel, Israeli media reported on 6 October.

    The attacker was identified as Ahmed Saeed al-Uqbi, an Israeli citizen and resident of Hura, a Bedouin village in the Negev Desert.

    Uqbi, who wore a bulletproof vest and was armed with a gun and a knife, opened fire at Beersheba’s central bus station, authorities reported, before being shot and killed by police.

    Middle East Eye: How the US revived ‘war on terror’ era surveillance to suppress pro-Palestine movement

    STATISTICS OCTOBER 7, 2023 – OCTOBER 6, 2024:

    Palestinian death toll from October 7, 2023 – October 6, 2024: at least 42,650* ( 41,909 in Gaza* – 11,308 women (30%), 16,859 children as of September 5. [The Ministry’s figures have been contested by the Israeli authorities, although they have been accepted as accurate by Israeli intelligence services, the UN, and WHO. These data are supported by independent analyses, comparing changes in the number of deaths of UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) staff with those reported by the Ministry, which found claims of data fabrication implausible.]

    This is expected to be a significant undercount since thousands of those killed have yet to be identified – and at least 741 in the West Bank (~160 children). This does not include an estimated 10,000 more still buried under rubble (4,900 women and children). Euro-Med Monitor reports 49,032 Palestinian deaths.

    Lancet: “Applying a conservative estimate of four indirect deaths per one direct death9 to the 37,396 deaths reported, it is not implausible to estimate that up to 186 000 or even more deaths could be attributable to the current conflict in Gaza.

    Ralph Nader earlier estimated 300,000 Palestinians may have been killed in Gaza.

    At least 45 Palestinians have died in Israeli prisons (27 from Gaza, 25 from West Bank).
    At least 41 Palestinians have died due to malnutrition (at least 37 of them children)**.
    About 1.9 million of Gaza’s 2.3 million population are currently displaced.
    Almost 500,000 Gazans are currently experiencing catastrophic levels of food insecurity.
    Palestinian injuries from October 7 – October 6, 2024: at least 103,503 (including at least 97,303 in Gaza and 6,200 in the West Bank, including 830 children). [It remains unknown how many Americans are among the casualties in Gaza.]

    Reported Israeli death toll from October 7, 2023 – October 6, 2024: ~1,457 (~1,139 on October 7, 2023, of which ~32 were Americans, and ~36 were children); 293*** military forces since the ground invasion began in Gaza; 25 military and civilians in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Israel) and~10,000 injured.

    The death toll in Lebanon since October 8, 2023 is at least 2,011 (at least 127 children, 194 women) and 9,535 injuries (690 of them children). An estimated 1.2 million have been displaced.

    NOTE: It is unknown at this time how many of the deaths and injuries of Israelis on October 7 were caused by Israeli soldiers.

    *Previously, IAK did not include 471 Gazans killed in the Al Ahli hospital blast since the source of the projectile was being disputed. However, given that much evidence points to Israel as the culprit, Israel had previously bombed the hospital and has attacked many others, Israel is prohibiting outside experts from investigating the scene, and since the UN and other agencies are including the deaths from the attack in their cumulative totals, if Americans knew is now also doing so.

    **Euro-Med Monitor reports that Gaza’s elderly are dying at an alarmingly high rate. The majority die at home and are buried either close to their residences or in makeshift graves dispersed across the Strip. There are currently more than 140 such cemeteries. Additionally, according to Euromed, thousands have died from starvation, malnourishment, and inadequate medical care; these are considered indirect victims as they were not registered in hospitals.

    ***The figure does not include the reportedly 56 Israeli soldiers – nearly 16% of the total Israeli military deaths – killed due to friendly fire in Gaza and other military-related accidents.

    † For most of the conflict, women and children accounted for about 70% of deaths in Gaza, with children making up a little over 40% of those killed, according to official statistics.

Israeli strikes across Lebanon Saturday killed 23 people and injured 93 others, the country’s health ministry said on Sunday. Around 40 per cent of Lebanon’s 1.25 million schoolchildren have been displaced by ongoing Israeli airstrikes, according to Imad Achkar, the director general of education. FLASHBACK 2023: Day 1 If Americans Knew reported: (October 7th, 2023) Palestinian resistance launches surprise attack on Israel After decades of Israeli occupation and human rights abuses, and after a 20-month-long mass nonviolent effort, Palestinians in Gaza launched a surprise operation against Israel on early Saturday morning, October 7th. Its scale is unprecedented, involving aerial, sea and ground operations. Details are only beginning to emerge. Israel immediately began bombing Gaza and has turned off electricity to the enclave, leaving most of its two million inhabitants in the dark and hospitals dangerously impacted. There are now 200 Israelis dead, 9000 injured, and an unknown number captured; and 232 Palestinians dead and 1,600 injured. Israeli forces, partly funded by the $13 million dollars per day that U.S. politicians have voted for them, are one of the world’s most powerful militaries, their weaponry vastly dwarfing Palestinians’. Today’s Palestinian land incursions largely consisted of individuals riding motorcycles and pickup trucks. WHY DID THEY DO IT? Hamas spokesperson Khaled Qadomi told Al Jazeera that the group’s military operation is in “response to all the atrocities the Palestinians have faced over the decades,” and the Hamas deputy chief said the group is engaged “in a battle for freedom.” Hamas military chief Muhammad Deif explained: “We have decided to put an end to all of the occupation’s crimes”; senior Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh indicated that recent provocations at the al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem were a major reason for the surprise attack. Other Israeli provocations include increased violence against Palestinians by illegal Israeli settlers, Israel’s treatment of Palestinian prisoners, and a spike in killings of Palestinians by the Israeli military. 2023 was the deadliest year on record for Palestinians in the West Bank, including for children. Hamas fighters broke down the barrier wall that imprisons Gaza and entered several Israeli communities near the border. They took over 200 prisoners, which they hope to exchange for Palestinian prisoners, and also captured a number of Israeli military vehicles. After being surprised by the scope of the Palestinian offensive, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced, “Citizens of Israel, we are at war [and will] fight back on a scale and intensity that the enemy has so far not experienced. The enemy will pay an unprecedented price.” In Gaza, Israeli warplanes reportedly destroyed a 5-story residential building, hit a hospital, and targeted an ambulance. Some media outlets refer to the Palestinian resistance fighters as “terrorists” – but under international law, armed resistance is the right of occupied people. Israel's war has left the Gaza Strip in ruins and killed over 40,000 Palestinians, including 16,000 children.

(Getty) Israeli troops bombard, besiege northern Gaza as ethnic cleansing unfolds AntiWar reports: The Israeli military has launched a fresh assault on northern Gaza and ordered all Palestinian civilians living in the north to head south, signaling Israel may be enacting an ethnic cleansing plan that has been reviewed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Known as the “general’s plan” since it was drawn up by retired IDF generals, the plan would result in the complete ethnic cleansing of Palestinians from areas in Gaza north of the Netzarim Corridor, a strip of land controlled by the Israeli military that separates Gaza City and other parts of the north from the south. Itsik Zuaret, a reporter for Israel’s public broadcaster Kan, said the general’s plan was underway. “In the future, the entire northern area of ​​the Gaza Strip will be cleansed according to the general’s plan,” he wrote on X. The first step of the plan is to transfer the estimated 300,000 Palestinian civilians out of northern Gaza, then impose a full siege on the north to starve out remaining Hamas fighters and other Palestinians who remain. Northern Gaza would be declared a “closed military zone,” meaning anyone who remains will be targeted by the IDF. Palestinian leaders are encouraging residents of the north to stay, reminding them there is no safe place in Gaza. ANADOLU AGENCY ADDS: At least 30 Palestinians were killed and dozens injured in Israeli airstrikes on northern Gaza early Sunday, marking the deadliest Israeli escalation since May. Palestinian medics reported that 30 bodies and several injured people were transported to hospitals in northern Gaza following Israeli airstrikes that struck Jabalia and Beit Lahia. NOTE: In 1948, Israel dispossessed 750,000 Palestinian people and exiled them permanently to Gaza and other locations in what Palestinians refer to as the Nakba (“catastrophe”). Many Palestinians see the current situation as another Nakba – already 75% of the population of Gaza has been internally displaced – and fear that they will never be allowed to return to their homes. Forced transfer of a people group is a crime against humanity.

Alzaanin – Anadolu Agency]) Report: US To Give Israel ‘Compensation’ If It Hits Only US-Approved Targets in Iran AntiWar reports: The US has offered Israel a “compensation package” if it avoids hitting certain targets in its planned attack on Iran, The Jerusalem Post reported Sunday, citing the Israeli TV channel Kan 11. Amichai Stein, a correspondent for Kan 11, said the package would include military aid and a guarantee that the US would provide total diplomatic support. “An American official said, ‘If you don’t hit targets A, B, C, we will provide you with diplomatic protection and an arms package,” Chair said. “Israeli officials responded saying, ‘We consider the United States and listen to them. But we will do anything and everything we can to protect the citizens and the security of the State of Israel.’” The US is coordinating with Israel on its plans to respond to the Iranian missile barrage that hit Israel last week, which came in response to several Israeli escalations throughout the region, including the July 31 assassination of Hamas’s political chief, Ismail Haniyeh, in Tehran. The US has said it will ensure Iran faces “severe consequences” but has warned against certain types of attacks, including attacks on Iran’s civilian nuclear facilities. President Biden said the US and Israel were discussing the idea of strikes on Iranian oil sites, but later said if he was in Israel’s shoes, he would be thinking about “other alternatives than striking oil fields.” NOTE: Mainstream media and pro-Israel leaders ignore the context of Iran’s attack, framing it instead as somehow unprovoked. Iran’s foreign minister, Abbas Araghchi, however, correctly declared that Iran’s missile attack was an act of “self-defense” that only targeted military and security sites used for attacks on Gaza and Lebanon. He pointed out that Iran’s measured attack came “after exercising tremendous restraint for almost two months, to give space for a ceasefire in Gaza.” The foreign minister added that Iran’s action was “concluded” unless Israel “decides to invite further retaliation” – words that indicate that Western leaders who want an end to the conflict ought to counsel Israel to let the matter drop.

In a report issued Sunday, the ministry pointed out that over the past year, Jewish settlers in the occupied West Bank have stormed and desecrated Al-Aqsa Mosque 262 times, performing Jewish prayers in the Muslim holy site. According to the report, Israeli National Security Minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, has stormed Al-Aqsa Mosque along with ministers of his far-right government six times, and threatened to establish a Jewish synagogue on the site. Ben-Gvir has relentlessly worked to intensify the Jewish presence at the mosque through government support and by giving it a legal cover, it added. The report indicated that “extremist Jewish religious groups have attacked and spat on Christians and Christian pilgrims in the occupied city of Jerusalem, specifically around ​​the Church of the Prison of Christ, and restricted them during Christian holidays, and prevented them from reaching the Nativity Church in Bethlehem in southern occupied West Bank and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in East Jerusalem.” Gaza’s Ministry of Endowments and Religious Affairs also said that 19 of 60 cemeteries were targeted, with bodies exhumed and desecrated. The ministry also reported that 238 of its staff members were killed and 19 were detained by Israeli forces.

Military spokesman Avichay Adraee asked the Lebanese residents to leave their homes and move north of the Awali River. A key ally of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has proposed the creation of an “empty” buffer zone in southern Lebanon. Writing in Israel Hayom, an outlet traditionally supportive of Netanyahu, former national security advisor Meir Ben-Shabbat said that emptying the border area in Lebanon of people would be one way to ensure that residents in northern Israel can return home without facing attacks. “The advantage of this alternative is the relatively low costs of enforcement and the fact that it can be made possible on a routine basis without serious dilemmas,” he wrote. “Another advantage of it is in the message it conveys: that terrorism against Israel causes a loss of territory.” NOTE: Forced transfer of a people group is a crime against humanity.

Hassan Hamad, 19, died when his home in Jabalia refugee camp was struck by artillery fire. Hamad was reporting on the new Israeli incursion just moments before he was killed. A colleague with access to his account on X said that Hamad had been sending videos about the assault late into the night. During their last phone call at 6am (3am GMT), Hamad said: “There they are. There they are. It’s over.” A few months before his killing, Hamad shared a screenshot with his colleagues of a threatening WhatsApp message he received from an Israeli number. The message read: “Listen… If you continue spreading lies about Israel, we’ll come for you next and turn your family into… This is your last warning.” RECOMMENDED READING: Israel has killed more journalists in Gaza than in any conflict in 30 years Lebanon calls for international pressure to end brutal Israeli attacks on medics, hospitals Anadolu Agency reports: Lebanese authorities called on Sunday for piling pressure on Israel to halt its attacks against the health sector in Lebanon amid air and ground attacks on the country. In a statement, the Lebanese Order of Nurses (ONS) accused Israel of deliberately targeting hospitals, doctors, nurses, and paramedics “in a blatant defiance of international laws and conventions,” and called on international groups to pressure Israel to cease. Israel has launched massive airstrikes on Lebanon against what it calls Hezbollah targets, killing more than 2,011 victims since Sept. 23, according to the Lebanese Health Ministry. At least 97 medical and emergency personnel have been killed and more than 10 hospitals damaged in the attacks.

The official broadcasting authority reported Sunday that Israeli authorities have decided to enforce a full security perimeter around the West Bank, closing the crossings that connect it to Israel and preventing the entry of Palestinian workers. In the occupied West Bank, at least 742 Palestinians, including children, have since been killed, nearly 6,200 others injured, and more than 10,900 arrested, according to Palestinian figures.

(social media) Remembering Archbishop Desmond Tutu, defender of Palestine Middle East Monitor looks back: When the world lost Archbishop Desmond Tutu on 26 December 2021, it lost more than just a Nobel Peace Prize laureate or the former Archbishop of Cape Town. It lost a moral compass, a voice that refused to be silenced in the face of injustice, whether in the townships of South Africa or Israel’s illegal occupation of Palestine. Tutu displayed a rare foresight that was lacking in most public figures. As early as 2002, in an article for the Guardian titled ‘Apartheid in the Holy Land’ he described Israel as an apartheid state, a stance taken at a time when such comparisons were still relatively rare. The former US President Jimmy Carter was the only other global figure to describe Israel as such in a 2006 book titled ‘Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid’. Many have followed since, and over the past few years, a wall-to-wall consensus has formed within the international human rights community about Israel’s practice of apartheid. Talking to South African media, Tutu would say: “I have witnessed the systemic humiliation of Palestinian men, women and children by members of the Israeli security forces. Their humiliation is familiar to all black South Africans who were corralled and harassed and insulted and assaulted by the security forces of the apartheid government.” Often he’d describe the racism perpetrated by Israel as being worse than the racism in South Africa. “In many instances [Israeli apartheid] is worse” than South Africa under white minority rule, said Tutu in a 2012 interview with David Frost. Tutu’s journey to becoming a leading voice for Palestine began in the townships of South Africa, where he witnessed the daily indignities and injustices of apartheid. As Tutu rose to prominence in the Anglican Church and the anti-apartheid movement, he developed a theology that emphasised what he would describe as God’s concern for justice and human dignity. “If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor,” Tutu would say. “If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality.” In this 2012 interview with Sir David Frost he talks about how Israel’s occupation of the West Bank is ‘in many ways worse than apartheid in South Africa’: NOTE: Multiple human rights organizations have documented and reported on Israeli apartheid, including: Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International, the Israeli human rights groups B’Tselem, and Yesh Din , the UN Special Rapporteur on Palestine, the UN Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia (ESCWA), and Harvard Law School’s International Human Rights Clinic. Iranian missiles ‘overwhelmed’ Israel’s air defenses: Wall St. Journal The Cradle reports: Satellite imagery shows that Iran’s barrage of ballistic missiles earlier this week was successful in overwhelming Israel’s air defenses, the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reported on 6 October. The Iranian attack on Israel demonstrated Iran’s advanced missile capabilities and caused major damage to three Israeli airbases, where as many as 32 of the roughly 180 Iranian missiles (18 percent) successfully hit within the bases’ perimeters, according to experts. WSJ concluded that future Iranian strikes “could have much more serious consequences if they target civilian infrastructure or heavily populated residential areas.” Iran fired the ballistic missiles at Israel on 1 October in response to a series of aggressions committed by Israel, including the assassination of high-level Hamas and Hezbollah leaders. The Iranian armed forces’ general staff has promised that, if Israel retaliates, Iran will answer with “widespread and comprehensive destruction” of infrastructure within Israel.

    The Israeli army killed 23 more Palestinians and injured 66 in attacks on the Gaza Strip, the Health Ministry in the enclave said on Saturday.

    These figures do not include the death toll from the overnight bombardment across Gaza.
    Israeli strikes across Lebanon Saturday killed 23 people and injured 93 others, according to the country’s health ministry.

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    NORTHERN GAZA: Israel carried out more than 100 airstrikes in northern Gaza overnight, killing at least 30 Palestinians and injuring dozens, marking the deadliest Israeli escalation since May.

    Following the attack, the Israeli military ordered residents to evacuate their homes and relocate to the Al-Mawasi “safe” zone in Deir al-Balah and Khan Younis, claiming “the region remains an active combat zone.” (WATCH How safe is Gaza’s al-Mawasi ‘safe zone’?)

    CENTRAL GAZA: At least 24 Palestinians, including children, were killed, and 93 others injured early Sunday morning in two separate Israeli airstrikes targeting a mosque and a school that were sheltering displaced civilians in central Gaza.

    BEIRUT: Israeli warplanes carried out more than 30 overnight airstrikes on Beirut’s southern suburb, marking the “heaviest night” of attacks since Israel expanded its military offensive against Lebanon on Sept. 23.

    Israeli officials claimed that the strikes were based on “precise intelligence,” and targeted Hezbollah infrastructure, as well as weapons caches, which Israel alleges are stored in residential buildings.

    Israeli military claims bombed mosque was Hamas command center

    Al Jazeera reports:

    The Israeli military has claimed, without providing evidence, that the “Shahada al-Aqsa mosque” it bombed in Deir el-Balah was being used as a “command and control complex”.

    Posting on X, the Israeli military also claimed that “many steps were taken to reduce the chance of harming civilians” before bombing the mosque, which was housing displaced Palestinians.

    At least 18 people have been confirmed killed so far. Footage of the aftermath of the attack, verified by Al Jazeera’s Sanad fact-checking agency, shows rescue crews scrambling to pull bodies from under the rubble.

    NOTE: Israel justifies every strike with essentially the same words, “the site was a Hamas command and control center”; it makes the same claims, “many steps were taken to reduce the chance of harming civilians,” often adding that it used “precise” munitions.

    The bombing sites consistently show no evidence of Hamas use, attacks are often carried out without warning to civilians to evacuate, and cause massive damage and loss of life. (More here.)

    Israeli army admits to targeting mosque in southern Lebanon

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    The Israeli army admitted on Saturday that it targeted a mosque in southern Lebanon, claiming that Hezbollah members were present and using it as an operations base.

    The Israeli army claimed in a statement that its airforce carried out a “precise strike late Friday night on Hezbollah fighters operating from a command center located within the mosque near Salah Ghandoor Hospital in Bint Jbeil.”

    The Israeli army claimed that Hezbollah members were using the mosque for “planning and executing attacks against Israeli forces.”

    This is the same pretext that the Israeli army used to destroy mosques and churches in the Gaza Strip.

    West Bank: Israeli Forces Kill a Former Prisoner Near Tubas

    IMEMC reports:

    Israeli forces shot and killed a Palestinian young man, on Saturday, after abducting him in the village of Wadi al-Far’a, southwest of Tubas in the northeastern part of the occupied West Bank.

    Kamal Bani Oda, the director of the Palestinian Prisoners’ Society (PPS) in Tubas, reported that Israeli forces shot Ahmad Mustafa Ahmad Awaisa, 30, with several live rounds, before abducting him.

    He added that the slain young man was a former prisoner who was released in September 2024, after spending two years in occupation prisons.

    Media sources said that a large army force stormed Wadi al-Far’a village, on Saturday morning, and surrounded the home of the Awaisa family, before invading the home, shooting the former prisoner with several live rounds, and abducting him.

    Two senior Hamas commanders killed in Lebanon strikes


    Middle East Eye reports:

    Two senior Hamas commanders were reportedly killed in Israeli strikes in northern Lebanon.

    Field commander Saeed Atallah Ali was reportedly killed in a strike targeting the Beddawi camp for Palestinian refugees near the northern Lebanese city of Tripoli.

    Mohammed Hussein al-Lawis was killed in another strike targeting the Beqaa Valley town of Saadnayel.

    Hamas confirmed both deaths.

    NOTE: These men are just the latest in a string of Israeli assassinations of resistance leaders, including Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iranian officials. Analysts suggest Israel is leaving itself no one to negotiate a ceasefire with.

    French president buckles under pressure from Netanyahu

    Various agencies report:

    Anadolu Agency: French President Emmanuel Macron on Saturday called for halting arms shipments to Israel over its operations in Gaza, stressing the need to prioritize a political solution in the region.

    Macron claimed that France was not sending weapons to Israel for use in Gaza, and insisted that Israel should adhere to international and humanitarian law.

    AFP continues the story: Hours later, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu slammed French President Emmanuel Macron for calling for a halt to arms supplies to Israel, which is fighting wars in Gaza and Lebanon.

    “As Israel fights the forces of barbarism led by Iran, all civilized countries should be standing firmly by Israel’s side.

    “Yet, President Macron and other Western leaders are now calling for arms embargoes against Israel. Shame on them,” Netanyahu said in a statement issued by his office.

    “Israel will win with or without their support, but their shame will continue long after the war is won”, Netanyahu added.

    Then. from Middle East Eye: Macron’s office walked back his statement, emphasizing that he “supports Israel’s security and demonstrates it,” that he mobilized France’s military to aid Israel twice, and that he “personally told the Iranian president of France’s commitment to Israel’s security.”

    “It is in this context that the president calls for an end to arms exports intended for use in Gaza,” the statement continued. “We must return to diplomatic solutions.”

    “France is Israel’s steadfast friend,” the Elysee concluded.

    STATISTICS OCTOBER 7, 2023 – OCTOBER 5, 2024:

    Palestinian death toll from October 7, 2023 – October 5, 2024: at least 42,611* ( 41,870 in Gaza* – 11,308 women (30%), 16,859 children as of September 5. [The Ministry’s figures have been contested by the Israeli authorities, although they have been accepted as accurate by Israeli intelligence services, the UN, and WHO. These data are supported by independent analyses, comparing changes in the number of deaths of UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) staff with those reported by the Ministry, which found claims of data fabrication implausible.]

    This is expected to be a significant undercount since thousands of those killed have yet to be identified – and at least 741 in the West Bank (~160 children). This does not include an estimated 10,000 more still buried under rubble (4,900 women and children). Euro-Med Monitor reports 49,032 Palestinian deaths.

    Lancet: “Applying a conservative estimate of four indirect deaths per one direct death9 to the 37,396 deaths reported, it is not implausible to estimate that up to 186 000 or even more deaths could be attributable to the current conflict in Gaza.

    Ralph Nader earlier estimated 300,000 Palestinians may have been killed in Gaza.

    At least 45 Palestinians have died in Israeli prisons (27 from Gaza, 25 from West Bank).
    At least 41 Palestinians have died due to malnutrition (at least 37 of them children)**.
    About 1.9 million of Gaza’s 2.3 million population are currently displaced.
    Almost 500,000 Gazans are currently experiencing catastrophic levels of food insecurity.
    Palestinian injuries from October 7 – October 5, 2024: at least 103,366 (including at least 97,166 in Gaza and 6,200 in the West Bank, including 830 children). [It remains unknown how many Americans are among the casualties in Gaza.]

    Reported Israeli death toll from October 7, 2023 – October 5, 2024: ~1,457 (~1,139 on October 7, 2023, of which ~32 were Americans, and ~36 were children); 293*** military forces since the ground invasion began in Gaza; 25 military and civilians in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Israel) and~10,000 injured.

    The death toll in Lebanon since October 8, 2023 is at least 2,011 (at least 127 children, 194 women) and 9,535 injuries (690 of them children). An estimated 1.2 million have been displaced.

    The death toll from Israeli strikes on Lebanon has reached 2,011, with 9,535 wounded since Oct. 8, 2023, according to local authorities on Friday.

    NOTE: It is unknown at this time how many of the deaths and injuries of Israelis on October 7 were caused by Israeli soldiers.

    *Previously, IAK did not include 471 Gazans killed in the Al Ahli hospital blast since the source of the projectile was being disputed. However, given that much evidence points to Israel as the culprit, Israel had previously bombed the hospital and has attacked many others, Israel is prohibiting outside experts from investigating the scene, and since the UN and other agencies are including the deaths from the attack in their cumulative totals, if Americans knew is now also doing so.

    **Euro-Med Monitor reports that Gaza’s elderly are dying at an alarmingly high rate. The majority die at home and are buried either close to their residences or in makeshift graves dispersed across the Strip. There are currently more than 140 such cemeteries. Additionally, according to Euromed, thousands have died from starvation, malnourishment, and inadequate medical care; these are considered indirect victims as they were not registered in hospitals.

    ***The figure does not include the reportedly 56 Israeli soldiers – nearly 16% of the total Israeli military deaths – killed due to friendly fire in Gaza and other military-related accidents.

    † For most of the conflict, women and children accounted for about 70% of deaths in Gaza, with children making up a little over 40% of those killed, according to official statistics.

These figures do not include the death toll from the overnight bombardment across Gaza. Israeli strikes across Lebanon Saturday killed 23 people and injured 93 others, according to the country’s health ministry. Anadolu Agency reports: NORTHERN GAZA: Israel carried out more than 100 airstrikes in northern Gaza overnight, killing at least 30 Palestinians and injuring dozens, marking the deadliest Israeli escalation since May. Following the attack, the Israeli military ordered residents to evacuate their homes and relocate to the Al-Mawasi “safe” zone in Deir al-Balah and Khan Younis, claiming “the region remains an active combat zone.” (WATCH How safe is Gaza’s al-Mawasi ‘safe zone’?) CENTRAL GAZA: At least 24 Palestinians, including children, were killed, and 93 others injured early Sunday morning in two separate Israeli airstrikes targeting a mosque and a school that were sheltering displaced civilians in central Gaza. BEIRUT: Israeli warplanes carried out more than 30 overnight airstrikes on Beirut’s southern suburb, marking the “heaviest night” of attacks since Israel expanded its military offensive against Lebanon on Sept. 23. Israeli officials claimed that the strikes were based on “precise intelligence,” and targeted Hezbollah infrastructure, as well as weapons caches, which Israel alleges are stored in residential buildings.

Qraiqea – Anadolu Agency) Israeli military claims bombed mosque was Hamas command center Al Jazeera reports: The Israeli military has claimed, without providing evidence, that the “Shahada al-Aqsa mosque” it bombed in Deir el-Balah was being used as a “command and control complex”. Posting on X, the Israeli military also claimed that “many steps were taken to reduce the chance of harming civilians” before bombing the mosque, which was housing displaced Palestinians. At least 18 people have been confirmed killed so far. Footage of the aftermath of the attack, verified by Al Jazeera’s Sanad fact-checking agency, shows rescue crews scrambling to pull bodies from under the rubble. NOTE: Israel justifies every strike with essentially the same words, “the site was a Hamas command and control center”; it makes the same claims, “many steps were taken to reduce the chance of harming civilians,” often adding that it used “precise” munitions. The bombing sites consistently show no evidence of Hamas use, attacks are often carried out without warning to civilians to evacuate, and cause massive damage and loss of life. (More here.)

    Israel admits air bases were hit in Iran attack – how much damage was there?

    Various agencies report:

    Middle East Monitor says: The Israeli army yesterday admitted that some of its air bases were hit during Iran’s missile attack on the occupation state on Tuesday night, but claimed the impact was insignificant.

    Army Radio quoted the military: “No air force aircraft were damaged in the attack and all of the missile impacts in the air bases are deemed by the military as ‘ineffective’, meaning that no harm was caused to the continuous operations of the air force.”

    A number of videos on social media Tuesday night, during the attack, show impact explosions, infrastructure damage, and huge craters (for example, this and this and this and this and this).

    Military Watch Magazine says: Reports have indicated that the bulk of Nevatim Air Base’s F-35s – over 20 fighters – were destroyed in the attack, with the stealth fighters representing one of the most high value targets in Israel.

    F-35s play a central role in Israeli plans for potential attacks on Iran, with their stealth capabilities and advanced avionics, including electronic warfare systems and other air defense suppression features, making them optimal assets for such operations.

    Forbes, however, stated that these “reports” are from Iranian state media, and is an example of “spread[ing] misinformation and propaganda without supporting evidence.”

    Ha’aretz points out: According to images taken by Planet Labs, one missile hit an aircraft hangar. Most photos of the damage were banned from publication.

    Israel heavily censors information on its military, so the truth may never come out.

    On April 13, Iran launched several hundred of its older missiles toward Israel, most of which were intercepted. The Iranian mission to the UN declared, “Should the Israeli regime make another mistake, Iran’s response will be considerably more severe,” and said Iran now “deemed the matter concluded”.

    On July 31, Israel assassinated Hamas political leader – the Palestinians’ head ceasefire negotiator – while he was an official guest on sovereign soil in Iran.

    In late September, Israel carried out attacks in Lebanon, killing over 700 in just a few days, including Hezbollah’s top leader, Hassan Nasrallah.

    Iran vowed to respond, and on Tuesday night, it did. Following its missile attack on Israel, Iran indicated that its retaliation was complete and the chapter could be closed (unless Israel again did something provocative).

    Various agencies report:

    US President Joe Biden is counseling Israel to take a proportional response to this week’s barrage of Iranian ballistic missiles, voicing opposition to a potential strike on Iran’s nuclear sites in the hopes of preventing the conflict that has erupted in the region from widening further.

    “No one’s saying don’t respond,” one senior administration official said.

    Kamala Harris’ statement Tuesday: “Iran launched 200 ballistic missiles at Israel in a reckless and brazen attack. I condemn this attack unequivocally. Iran is a destabilizing, dangerous force in the Middle East, and today’s attack on Israel only further demonstrates that fact.”

    After talking about the Iranian attack as a brazen and unacceptable escalation, State Department Spokesman Matthew Miller was asked by the press if he considered anything Israel has done in the past three weeks escalatory. Miller ridiculously refused to acknowledge any escalatory behavior on Israel’s part, saying instead that Israel had merely “done things to expand the conflict” in order to fight terrorism.

    US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said on Tuesday that the US would work with Israel to ensure Iran faces “severe consequences” for launching a missile attack on Israel.

    THAT IS TO SAY: Harris does not consider Israel’s multiple unprovoked attacks to be destabilizing or dangerous; Miller could not bring himself to admit that Israel had done anything provocative; Sullivan announced that the US was collaborating with Israel to bring another attack from Iran.

    Sina Toossi of the Center for International Policy offers this commentary: “After a string of assassinations and other Israeli escalations in recent weeks, Iran is trying to create a new deterrence equilibrium. They are saying that we can still hit you, and we can hit you hard. Iran is actually trying to ‘escalate to de-escalate’ here.”


    Several Israeli politicians openly call for a large-scale assault on Iran

    Middle East Eye reports:

    Former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett said: “Israel has now its greatest opportunity in 50 years, to change the face of the Middle East. We must act now to destroy Iran’s nuclear program, its central energy facilities, and to fatally cripple this terrorist regime.”

    National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir said: “What we did to Lebanon must also be done to Iran… no political arrangements, no diplomacy – crush, crush, crush.”

    Parliament member Avigdor Lieberman said: “Bomb all the oil, gas and nuclear facilities, and destroy the refineries and dams.”

    NOTE: According to the Nuclear Threat Initiative: Although Israel has possessed nuclear weapons since the 1960s, it maintains a policy of nuclear opacity, never officially confirming the existence of its nuclear program. Accordingly, Israel has never signed the Non Proliferation Treaty (NPT).

    Peace is within reach – if Israel will be a partner

    From the Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi:

    The Arab world calls on the international community to bring Israel to the table, where a peace initiative is waiting for him.



    US finally steps up to evacuate Americans from Lebanon

    BACKGROUND: The US State Department faced harsh criticism after announcing Sunday that it would not be assisting Americans who wanted to leave Lebanon, as Israel (backed by the US) has increased its attacks on southern Lebanon.

    National Security Communications Advisor John Kirby said, “Right now, the State Department does not feel a need for [evacuation]. There are still commercial operations, commercial air traffic that is getting out of Beirut and are still available to those Americans that want to leave…if you’re in Lebanon and you want to go, go now while these options are available to you.”

    Apparently, the agency has had second thoughts.

    CNN reports:

    The US organized a charter flight for Americans to depart Lebanon on Wednesday and plans to offer future flights based on demand, State Department spokesperson Matt Miller said.

    There were just over 100 people, including Americans and family members of American citizens, on the flight today, he said. The flight flew from Beirut to Istanbul.

    “It’s been a priority for us to enhance the capacity of flights in and out of the region, so we’ve contracted with additional carriers to facilitate the transport of American citizens,” Miller said.

    “We do hope to organize additional flights in the coming days, depending on demand.”

    Around 7,000 people have registered with the State Department to get more information about US-supported ways to depart Lebanon.

    Malaysian PM calls out Netanyahu’s genocidal self-preservation strategy

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim criticized Israeli politicians Wednesday, saying they are sacrificing innocent lives to keep themselves in power.

    In a statement on X, Anwar said Israel’s continued aggression and attacks on Lebanon, Syria and Yemen are deliberate attempts to divert the global community’s focus from its brutal atrocities and acts of genocide against Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank.

    “This escalation is plainly aimed at keeping Israel’s current political leaders in power and out of prison, sacrificing innocent lives at the altar of one man’s political career,” he added, referring to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

    He called on all parties in the Middle East to urgently de-escalate tensions which are destabilizing the region.

    Israel’s highest court on Monday ruled authorities have the right to indefinitely hold the body of Palestinian novelist Walid Daqqa, rejecting a petition filed by his family to secure the return of his remains for a dignified burial.

    Daqqa, a Palestinian citizen of Israel, died from cancer at age 62 while still in custody in April.

    He had spent 38 years in detention for the kidnapping and murder of an Israeli soldier in 1984, with Israel accusing him of being a member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP).

    During his time in prison, Daqqa authored several highly regarded works of Arabic literature, including the 2018 children’s fable The Tale of the Secrets of the Oil.

    Following his cancer diagnosis, there were widespread calls for him to be released early, with only two years left on his sentence. However, Israel refused.

    Additionally, Amnesty International visited him a few weeks before his death and reported that he had been subject to torture while in an already weakened state.

    Palestinian journalist released by Israel

    Middle East Monitor reports:

    The Israeli authorities released journalist Asmaa Harish Tuesday after holding her for six months in administrative detention in Damon Prison, the Palestinian Information Centre has reported.

    She was detained in April of this year, and has been since subjected to ill-treatment and serious human rights violations.

    Israel continues to hold 96 Palestinian women in its prison, including 27 administrative detainees, not including prisoners from Gaza.

    The release of Harish means that Israel is now holding six women journalists in its prisons.

    NOTE: The Committee To Protect Journalists reports that at least 174 journalists have been killed in the Palestinian territories since October 7th, making it the deadliest period for journalists since CPJ began gathering data in 1992. Israel also recently banned Al Jazeera from broadcasting in Israel and the West Bank, forbids international journalists entrance into Gaza, and heavily censors reporting by international news organizations.

    Israel has wiped out 902 Palestinian families in Gaza over past year – Day 361 [email protected] October 3, 2024 Ahmed al-Zard, António Guterres persona non grata, bernie sanders, blocking weapons to israel, evacuation from lebanon, genocide, Iran, iran sanctions, massacre, palestinian journalist, walid daqqa, weapons to israel, white phosphorus Israel admits air bases were hit in Iran attack – how much damage was there? Various agencies report: Middle East Monitor says: The Israeli army yesterday admitted that some of its air bases were hit during Iran’s missile attack on the occupation state on Tuesday night, but claimed the impact was insignificant. Army Radio quoted the military: “No air force aircraft were damaged in the attack and all of the missile impacts in the air bases are deemed by the military as ‘ineffective’, meaning that no harm was caused to the continuous operations of the air force.” A number of videos on social media Tuesday night, during the attack, show impact explosions, infrastructure damage, and huge craters (for example, this and this and this and this and this). Military Watch Magazine says: Reports have indicated that the bulk of Nevatim Air Base’s F-35s – over 20 fighters – were destroyed in the attack, with the stealth fighters representing one of the most high value targets in Israel. F-35s play a central role in Israeli plans for potential attacks on Iran, with their stealth capabilities and advanced avionics, including electronic warfare systems and other air defense suppression features, making them optimal assets for such operations. Forbes, however, stated that these “reports” are from Iranian state media, and is an example of “spread[ing] misinformation and propaganda without supporting evidence.” Ha’aretz points out: According to images taken by Planet Labs, one missile hit an aircraft hangar. Most photos of the damage were banned from publication. Israel heavily censors information on its military, so the truth may never come out. On April 13, Iran launched several hundred of its older missiles toward Israel, most of which were intercepted. The Iranian mission to the UN declared, “Should the Israeli regime make another mistake, Iran’s response will be considerably more severe,” and said Iran now “deemed the matter concluded”. On July 31, Israel assassinated Hamas political leader – the Palestinians’ head ceasefire negotiator – while he was an official guest on sovereign soil in Iran. In late September, Israel carried out attacks in Lebanon, killing over 700 in just a few days, including Hezbollah’s top leader, Hassan Nasrallah. Iran vowed to respond, and on Tuesday night, it did. Following its missile attack on Israel, Iran indicated that its retaliation was complete and the chapter could be closed (unless Israel again did something provocative). Various agencies report: US President Joe Biden is counseling Israel to take a proportional response to this week’s barrage of Iranian ballistic missiles, voicing opposition to a potential strike on Iran’s nuclear sites in the hopes of preventing the conflict that has erupted in the region from widening further. “No one’s saying don’t respond,” one senior administration official said. Kamala Harris’ statement Tuesday: “Iran launched 200 ballistic missiles at Israel in a reckless and brazen attack. I condemn this attack unequivocally. Iran is a destabilizing, dangerous force in the Middle East, and today’s attack on Israel only further demonstrates that fact.” After talking about the Iranian attack as a brazen and unacceptable escalation, State Department Spokesman Matthew Miller was asked by the press if he considered anything Israel has done in the past three weeks escalatory. Miller ridiculously refused to acknowledge any escalatory behavior on Israel’s part, saying instead that Israel had merely “done things to expand the conflict” in order to fight terrorism. US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said on Tuesday that the US would work with Israel to ensure Iran faces “severe consequences” for launching a missile attack on Israel. THAT IS TO SAY: Harris does not consider Israel’s multiple unprovoked attacks to be destabilizing or dangerous; Miller could not bring himself to admit that Israel had done anything provocative; Sullivan announced that the US was collaborating with Israel to bring another attack from Iran. Sina Toossi of the Center for International Policy offers this commentary: “After a string of assassinations and other Israeli escalations in recent weeks, Iran is trying to create a new deterrence equilibrium. They are saying that we can still hit you, and we can hit you hard. Iran is actually trying to ‘escalate to de-escalate’ here.” Several Israeli politicians openly call for a large-scale assault on Iran Middle East Eye reports: Former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett said: “Israel has now its greatest opportunity in 50 years, to change the face of the Middle East. We must act now to destroy Iran’s nuclear program, its central energy facilities, and to fatally cripple this terrorist regime.” National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir said: “What we did to Lebanon must also be done to Iran… no political arrangements, no diplomacy – crush, crush, crush.” Parliament member Avigdor Lieberman said: “Bomb all the oil, gas and nuclear facilities, and destroy the refineries and dams.” NOTE: According to the Nuclear Threat Initiative: Although Israel has possessed nuclear weapons since the 1960s, it maintains a policy of nuclear opacity, never officially confirming the existence of its nuclear program. Accordingly, Israel has never signed the Non Proliferation Treaty (NPT). Peace is within reach – if Israel will be a partner From the Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi: The Arab world calls on the international community to bring Israel to the table, where a peace initiative is waiting for him. US finally steps up to evacuate Americans from Lebanon BACKGROUND: The US State Department faced harsh criticism after announcing Sunday that it would not be assisting Americans who wanted to leave Lebanon, as Israel (backed by the US) has increased its attacks on southern Lebanon. National Security Communications Advisor John Kirby said, “Right now, the State Department does not feel a need for [evacuation]. There are still commercial operations, commercial air traffic that is getting out of Beirut and are still available to those Americans that want to leave…if you’re in Lebanon and you want to go, go now while these options are available to you.” Apparently, the agency has had second thoughts. CNN reports: The US organized a charter flight for Americans to depart Lebanon on Wednesday and plans to offer future flights based on demand, State Department spokesperson Matt Miller said. There were just over 100 people, including Americans and family members of American citizens, on the flight today, he said. The flight flew from Beirut to Istanbul. “It’s been a priority for us to enhance the capacity of flights in and out of the region, so we’ve contracted with additional carriers to facilitate the transport of American citizens,” Miller said. “We do hope to organize additional flights in the coming days, depending on demand.” Around 7,000 people have registered with the State Department to get more information about US-supported ways to depart Lebanon. Malaysian PM calls out Netanyahu’s genocidal self-preservation strategy Anadolu Agency reports: Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim criticized Israeli politicians Wednesday, saying they are sacrificing innocent lives to keep themselves in power. In a statement on X, Anwar said Israel’s continued aggression and attacks on Lebanon, Syria and Yemen are deliberate attempts to divert the global community’s focus from its brutal atrocities and acts of genocide against Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank. “This escalation is plainly aimed at keeping Israel’s current political leaders in power and out of prison, sacrificing innocent lives at the altar of one man’s political career,” he added, referring to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. He called on all parties in the Middle East to urgently de-escalate tensions which are destabilizing the region. Israeli court rules that body of Walid Daqqa can be held as bargaining chip in hostage negotiations The New Arab reports: Israel’s highest court on Monday ruled authorities have the right to indefinitely hold the body of Palestinian novelist Walid Daqqa, rejecting a petition filed by his family to secure the return of his remains for a dignified burial.

  • BQQQM!!! Panic in DC: The Devolution Plan and Secret Military Orders – Obama, Klain, and Biden’s Emergency Sit-Down Amidst Political Chaos!

    Breaking News: Explosive Revelations in DC! Uncover the chaos shaking Washington D.C. as Obama, Klain, and Biden meet in secret amidst whispers of a Devolution Plan, military orders, and a Trump 2024 comeback. Dive deep into the battle for America’s future!

    The nation is in a state of shock as whispers from behind closed doors suggest a gripping political drama unfolding in the heart of Washington D.C. An emergency meeting between powerful figures has set the capital ablaze with rumors that could change the course of the country. With Vice President Kamala Harris sidelined, names like Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer are floated as potential replacements. What could be so seismic as to shake the very fabric of the White House?

    The source of panic? Doug Kass, a well-connected DNC insider, leaked sensitive information igniting a frenzy. Is this merely a scripted act designed to manipulate public opinion, or is there a real struggle for control at play? The lines blur between reality and fiction in a 24/7 news cycle filled with conspiracy theories.

    At the heart of this political storm is the Devolution Plan, a series of alleged secret military orders signed by Trump to regain control of mainstream media and root out “the deep state.” Imagine every headline and piece of information fed to the public orchestrated as part of a much larger plan.

    This is not just a power play; it aims to expose corruption and illegal activities. The chaos must reach a boiling point, leading to drastic measures—potentially canceling elections and sparking a nationwide revolt.

    Rumors of military intervention are surfacing, suggesting a mass arrest of corrupt officials to return power to the "rightful leaders." This isn’t just a coup; it’s a necessary action to stabilize a country spiraling out of control.

    The narrative doesn’t end there. Trump is expected to face a staged house arrest, followed by a failed assassination attempt, designed to portray him as the unshakeable leader poised to save the nation. This scripted drama aims to sway public opinion and solidify Trump’s image as the hero of this saga.

    As America braces for the storm, it’s crucial to remain informed and vigilant. The panic in Washington D.C. signals a monumental shift that could rewrite the very fabric of American history. Stay alert; the future of our nation depends on it!

  • The Deep State US Inc. Biden/Harris Administration and FEMA was threatening people with arrest for trying to help Hurricane Helene Victims after little or no Government response to the disaster for the last six days. Helene was suspected to have been man made by the Deep State Cabal.

    A Tennessee Resident said that FEMA was sending out text messages telling everyone not to help neighbors in need. It read “We don’t want you to donate money or items to anyone but us. Only get your instructions from us and only listen to us.”

    I say just ask Maui disaster victims (or victims of any disaster for that matter) how that worked out for them – how much FEMA took advantage of them.

    Speaking of corrupt Federal assistance: The FBI just announced they found human meat in the Cabal owned McDonald’s Fast Food meat supply. What they didn’t say was that since at least 2015 – for nine long years – they have known about the meat of children being in the meat supply of US fast food restaurants and the FBI, FDA, and USDA has done nothing about it.

    Deep State related Hurricane Helene and McDonalds human meat being forced on the public was just the beginning. A Near Death of Civilization Event – perhaps a Nuclear World War III – has been designed by the Deep State to cause chaos, panic and fear-mongering in their desperate attempt to maintain control. For generations the Luciferian elites, with their pedophile parties and child sacrificing in a twisted desire for power, have used war to create chaos so they could escape accountability,

    While the Deep State Cabal Elites were trying to drag us into another global conflict, the White Hats were relentlessly working to prevent it. Taking over the Mainstream News satellites will erase the Cabal’s grip on information, exposing every lie. The real power, though, lays in the Global Alliance’s complete restructuring of the global financial system from a World dominated by Rothschild-controlled banks to a transparent gold/asset-backed system owned by The People.

    There will be no November 2024 U.S. Election due to the Near Death of Civilization Event that was expected to cause chaos throughout the US. During the Event Trump and the US Military were set to seize power. Among their long To Do List was the taking down of the Department of Homeland Security, FBI and Deep State Intelligence Agencies, plus restructuring of the Three Branches of US Government – US Presidential Administration, Congress and Supreme Court.

    You can do something about helping victims of Hurricane Helene. Though, I suggest no contributions to the Red Cross as your money could go straight to the Cabal – they run it. Just ask victims of the Cabal designed Maui disaster. Their equal sided Red Cross was the same symbol as the Mark of Cain.

    Israel killed at least 28 people in the Gaza Strip Sunday.

    At least four Palestinians were killed and several others injured in an Israeli airstrike on the Umm al-Fahm School in the town of Beit Lahia, which serves to shelter displaced civilians in the northern Gaza Strip.
    The Lebanese health ministry has reported that Israeli air strikes on Sunday killed at least 109 individuals and left 364 others wounded across the country.

    An entire family of 17 members was wiped out by an Israeli airstrike on Sunday in the town of Zboud, in the Bekaa Valley in eastern Lebanon, Lebanese media said.
    In Yemen, at least four people were killed and 49 others injured in Israeli airstrikes on the western city of Al Hudaydah on Sunday, the Houthi group said.

    Around 17,000 children killed in Israeli war on Gaza, Palestinian authorities say

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    Around 17,000 Palestinian children have been killed in Israel’s ongoing war on the Gaza Strip since last October, according to local authorities on Sunday.

    “Around 25,973 Palestinian children now live in Gaza without one or both parents due to the Israeli aggression,” Ismail al-Thawabta, who heads Gaza’s government media office, told Anadolu.

    He said at least 16,859 children, including 171 infants, have been killed in Israeli attacks since Oct. 7, 2023.

    The UN Children’s Fund (UNICEF) has repeatedly warned that “Gaza’s children have endured unimaginable horrors” under relentless Israeli attacks.

    Gaza: Israel’s destruction of agricultural land is expression of its insistence on committing genocide

    Euro Med Monitor reports:

    Israel has once again destroyed hundreds of dunams of agricultural land, depriving Palestinians in the northern Gaza Strip of agricultural land and resources vital to survival, all in support of its illegal blockade of the Strip and tight restrictions on the entry of food supplies for almost a full year. This is an expression of Israel’s insistence on committing genocide against Palestinians in the enclave.

    Israel has forced over 75% of agricultural land in the Gaza Strip from the Palestinian people’s hands, either by isolating it in preparation for illegally annexing it to its military “buffer zone” or by bulldozing or otherwise damaging it, thereby destroying the Strip’s supply of fruits, vegetables, and meat.

    This destruction is part of a larger Israeli plan that dates back to last October. Under this plan, Israeli forces have worked to eliminate almost 80% of the agricultural land in the Gaza Strip from use by Palestinians. Israel has done this either by isolating it in preparation for its forcible annexation to the so-called “buffer zone” or by bulldozing or destroying it by other means, such as bombardment—all of which are in violation of international law.

    According to the Euro-Med Monitor field team, Israeli forces stormed the area of Al-Shimaa in Beit Lahia, northern Gaza, early on Tuesday morning (25 September 2024). Accompanied by military bulldozers, the forces began their bulldozing operations, destroying more than 500 dunums of newly replanted agricultural land, which was supposed to sustain the needs of the people living in northern Gaza, who are subject to an arbitrary siege and systematic starvation by Israel.

    The Israeli destruction of these agricultural lands, the majority of which were filled with eggplants, reflects Israel’s insistence on preventing the Palestinian people from depending on the region’s agricultural food basket during a period when sufficient supplies of vegetables and other foods are being kept out of the northern Gaza Strip. This has led to a severe famine, to the point where a significant portion of the people in the north have been forced to eat tree leaves and bake ground-up animal feed instead of flour.

    Palestinian security in Gaza says spying devices found in displacement camps

    Middle East Monitor reports:

    The Palestinian security services in Gaza have in recent days seized Israeli spying equipment planted in a shelter for displaced families in the southern Gaza Strip, a Palestinian resistance media platform reported on its Telegram channel yesterday.

    The platform quoted a security officer as saying that “the [Israeli] occupation intelligence had disguised the seized spying devices with different shapes, so they appear as part of the surrounding and natural environment including in the form of a rock.”

    The officer suggested the Israeli intelligence planted the spying devices via Quadcopter drones, calling on everyone “not to tamper with any suspicious devices and to contact the security officers immediately.”

    From Gaza to Lebanon: Israel’s Bombing Campaign Backed by Media Propaganda

    MintPress News reports:

    Western corporate media outlets, including the BBC, CNN, and The New York Times, have been working overtime to justify Israel’s recent assault on Lebanon, which claimed the lives of approximately 600 people in a single day. These reports have repeatedly claimed that the Israeli strikes were targeting “Hezbollah positions,” an assertion that has been widely echoed without substantial scrutiny.

    Israel’s large-scale onslaught against civilian areas throughout Lebanon, which began on Monday, was covered by Western corporate media as “strikes on Hezbollah.”

    CNN’s story on the first day of the assault, after around 500 people had been killed across Lebanon, was titled, “Israeli Strikes Targeting Hezbollah Kill Hundreds Across Lebanon.” The New York Times set up a live events feed labeled “Israel Strikes Hezbollah Targets in Lebanon.” Even Reuters and the Associated Press, two of the most reputable Western news providers, framed the events as an escalation from “both sides,” covering Israel’s attack on Hezbollah.


    A Reuters article published Tuesday opens with a telling lede: “An Israeli airstrike on Beirut killed a senior Hezbollah commander on Tuesday as cross-border rocket attacks by both sides increased fears of a full-fledged war in the Middle East, and Lebanon said only Washington could help end the fighting.”

    Israel has made no secret of the fact that it is targeting civilians, as demonstrated by its release of a CGI video showing mockups of Lebanese villages, where missiles are allegedly stored in homes. Despite this, much of the Western media has yet to acknowledge these admissions.

    Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu dispelled any remaining doubt when he delivered a message in English to the people of Lebanon in which he claimed, “Hezbollah has been using you as human shields.” He further stated, “They’ve placed rockets in your living rooms” and “missiles in your garage.”

    Garbage situation in Gaza is catastrophic

    Various agencies report:

    UNRWA, the United Nations group serving Palestinian refugees, says: Mountains of garbage are piling up in Gaza middle areas as sewage leaks onto streets. Families have no choice but to live beside the accumulated waste, exposed to the reek and the threat of a looming health disaster. Sanitary and living conditions across Gaza are inhumane.

    According to ReliefWeb, the waste management system in Gaza, already limited before the war, has now completely collapsed as collection vehicles have been destroyed and access to official landfills is refused by the Israeli military.

    Waste attracts rodents and insects resulting in the spread of infectious diseases such as cholera or skin diseases, while waste burning, a disposal method that locals use to manage the current emergency, worsens air pollution which in turn can result in further respiratory problems. People, many of whom are children, scavenging waste for food and sustenance, face additional risks from hazardous materials, which include medical waste and industrial chemicals.

    There are also growing indications that conflict pollution is risked with the spread of antimicrobial resistance, a development that can deepen the medical health crisis.

    Large waste dumps are also a threat to the soil and groundwater, as leachate, a toxic mix that spills from the waste, seeps into the land and affects groundwater, while in the long-term, increased methane release from landfills contributes to an increase of greenhouse gas emissions.

    Lebanon says around 1 million people displaced due to Israeli attacks

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    Lebanon’s caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati said Sunday that around one million people have been displaced due to Israeli attacks, marking the largest wave of displacement in the country’s history.

    “Lebanon is experiencing the largest wave of displacement in its history,” he told a press conference following a meeting of the government’s emergency committee in Beirut.

    “Our priority is to stop the ongoing Israeli aggression through continued diplomatic efforts. We have no other choice,” he noted.

    Mikati also reaffirmed Lebanon’s commitment to United Nations Security Council Resolution 1701, which calls for a cessation of hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah.

    Israel’s state comptroller accuses army of obstructing investigations into Oct. 7 failures

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    Israeli State Comptroller Matanyahu Englman accused the military on Sunday of hindering investigations into the failures that led to the Oct. 7 Hamas attack.

    “No external body has shown objectivity in examining the failures,” Englman said during a conference by Israeli media outlets The Jerusalem Post, Maariv and Walla.

    He said his office is conducting a series of investigations related to the failures that led to the Oct. 7 attack.

    “We are nearing completion of this report, but to finalize it, we need to meet with three individuals in the military,” Englman added.

    He emphasized that Army Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi believes that the State Comptroller’s office should not intervene in military issues, declaring him “wrong.”

    The State Comptroller’s office is Israel’s central institution for overseeing various state agencies to ensure public financial accountability.

    US senator confirms Israel used US one ton bombs in Nasrallah strike

    Reuters reports:

    The bomb that Israel used to kill Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah in Beirut last week was an American-made guided weapon, a U.S. senator said on Sunday.

    Mark Kelly, chair of the Senate Armed Services Airland Subcommittee, said Israel used a 2,000-lb (900-kg) Mark 84 series bomb, during an interview with NBC. His statement marks the first U.S. indication of what weapon had been used.

    “We see more use of guided munitions, JDAMs, and we continue to provide those weapons,” Kelly said, using an abbreviation that stands for Joint Direct Attack Munitions. “That 2,000-pound bomb that was used, that’s a Mark 84 series bomb, to take out Nasrallah,” he said.

    The Israeli military said on Saturday it had eliminated Nasrallah in a strike on the group’s central command headquarters in Beirut’s southern suburbs.

    The Israeli military has declined to comment on what weapons were used in the attack. The Pentagon was not immediately available for comment.

    JDAMs convert a standard unguided bomb using fins and a GPS guidance system into a guided weapon.

    AL JAZEERA ADDS: Israel media says about 85 so-called “bunker-buster” bombs were used in the attack on Hasan Nasrallah.

    Also known as “ground penetration munition”, these missiles burrow deep into the ground before they detonate.

    They have the power to destroy underground facilities and reinforced concrete buildings.

    Washington’s failure to condemn Israel’s pager terrorism “can only be called racist”

    Ralph Nader writes in Common Dreams:

    Furtively booby-trapping a consumer product like a pager or two-way radio opens a new phase of warfare. This savagery prompted Leon Panetta, former director of the CIA and former secretary of defense, in an interview on the CBS “Sunday Morning” news show to charge Israel with “terrorism.” No prominent national security figure has ever assailed Israel this way. Herewith his words:

    The ability to be able to place an explosive in technology that is very prevalent these days. And turn it into a war of terror. Really, a war of terror. This is something new.

    I don’t think there’s any question that it’s a form of terrorism…This is going right into the supply chain, right into the supply chain. And when you have terror going into the supply chain, it makes people ask the question, what the hell is next?

    Panetta would never have uttered these words without the concurrence of the CIA and the Department of Defense. Still no consequences for Netanyahu by the U.S. government.

    Netanyahu has made the push button a trigger for mayhem and murder—acts of large-scale terrorism. He and his predecessors have always characterized offensive acts violating the laws of war as “acceptable” defensive tactics.

    The supine Congress and White House regularly rubber-stamp their violations of several U.S. laws on behalf of the Israeli government. (See the letter sent to John Kirby on September 12, 2024).

    Consider the aftermath. No denunciation by U.S. President Biden, Secretary of State Antony Blinken, or Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin.

    Alarmingly, there were no editorials in the following week criticizing Netanyahu in The Washington Post and The New York Times.

    Imagine if Hezbollah did this to Israeli society. The devaluation of Palestinian and Lebanese lives can only be called racist.

    U.S. blowback analysts are apprehensive about the spread of Israeli-style “red button” explosives and the ingenious, and ever-cheaper armed drones. They see such technologies as potential threats within the U.S.

    Such is the peril of nations whose leaders wage constant profitable, preventable wars and decline to wage muscular peace with comparable determination.

    Pope says Israel’s bombings in Lebanon, Gaza ‘immoral’

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    On Sunday, the pope was asked about Israel’s targeted killing of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in Friday’s strike on Beirut, which led to many casualties and reduced several buildings to rubble.

    “Every day I call the parish of Gaza. More than 600 people are there, inside the parish and the college, and they tell me about the things that are happening, including the cruelties that are occurring there,” he told journalists.

    “[D]efense must always be proportionate to the attack,” he added.

    “When there is something disproportionate, a domineering tendency that goes beyond morality is evident,” the pope said.

    “A country that, with its forces, does these things—I’m talking about any country—that does these things in such a “superlative” way, these are immoral actions,” he added.

    “Even in war, there is morality to be safe-guarded. War is immoral, but the rules of war indicate some morality. But when this is not respected, you can see—as we say in Argentina—the “bad blood” of these things.”

    Jared Kushner says Israel must ‘finish the job’ in Lebanon

    Al Jazeera reports:

    Jared Kushner, who served as a senior adviser during former US President Donald Trump’s tenure in the White House, has said calling for a ceasefire in Lebanon is “wrong”.

    In a post on X, Kushner said Israel “cannot afford now to not finish the job” and dismantle Hezbollah completely.“They will never get another chance. After the brilliant, rapid-fire tactical successes of the pagers, radios, and targeting of leadership, Hezbollah’s massive weapon cache is unguarded and unmanned,” said Kushner, who is also the Republican candidate’s son-in-law.
    He added that the “right move” for the US is to allow Israel to “finish the job. It’s long overdue”.

    In March, Kushner sparked controversy when he publicly praised the “very valuable potential” of “waterfront property” in Gaza, in comments that gave a window into what Trump’s policy on Palestine could be during his second term.

    During Trump’s presidency, Kushner played a major role in negotiating the “Abraham Accords”: normalization deals between Israel and the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Sudan and Morocco. Palestinians slammed the agreements as “a stab in the back of the Palestinian cause and the Palestinian people”.

    At one point, Trump’s son-in-law described Gaza as having no historical context – “It was the result of a war – you had tribes that went different places and then Gaza became a thing.”

    Before leading in the creation of Trump’s so-called Deal of the Century, Kushner claimed his expertise on the subject came from reading 25 books about Palestine.

    Russian foreign minister urges Israel to abandon ‘essentially terrorist methods of settling political scores’

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov urged Israel on Saturday to abandon “essentially terrorist methods of settling political scores” as he commented on the assassination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah.

    Lavrov said at a news conference in New York that he had the impression that Israel is trying to provoke Iran and the Lebanese resistance group, Hezbollah, to push the US into direct involvement in the conflict in the Middle East.

    The Russian diplomat noted that Nasrallah’s murder was not the first provocative step by Israel. Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh was killed in July in the Iranian capital of Tehran where he went to take part in the funeral of President Ebrahim Raisi. Before that, Israel attacked the Iranian diplomatic mission in the Syrian capital of Damascus.

    “Apparently, Israel wants to create a reason for the US to get involved in this war. And in order to create this reason, it has been provoking both Iran and Hezbollah. In this situation, Iranian leadership is behaving extremely responsibly,” he said. “I don’t think this is the right course, I am convinced that the bloodshed must be stopped.”

    Asked about Israel’s willingness to implement UN Security Council resolutions, Lavrov said: “I do not see Israel’s desire to carry out any peace plans.”

    STATISTICS OCTOBER 7 – SEPTEMBER 29:

    Palestinian death toll from October 7, 2023 – September 29, 2024: at least 42,334* (41,615 in Gaza* – 11,308 women (30%), 16,859 children as of September 5. [The Ministry’s figures have been contested by the Israeli authorities, although they have been accepted as accurate by Israeli intelligence services, the UN, and WHO. These data are supported by independent analyses, comparing changes in the number of deaths of UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) staff with those reported by the Ministry, which found claims of data fabrication implausible.]

    This is expected to be a significant undercount since thousands of those killed have yet to be identified – and at least 719 in the West Bank (~148 children). This does not include an estimated 10,000 more still buried under rubble (4,900 women and children). Euro-Med Monitor reports 49,032 Palestinian deaths.

    Lancet: “Applying a conservative estimate of four indirect deaths per one direct death9 to the 37,396 deaths reported, it is not implausible to estimate that up to 186 000 or even more deaths could be attributable to the current conflict in Gaza.

    Ralph Nader earlier estimated 300,000 Palestinians may have been killed in Gaza.

    At least 45 Palestinians have died in Israeli prisons (27 from Gaza, 25 from West Bank).
    At least 41 Palestinians have died due to malnutrition (at least 37 of them children)**.
    About 1.9 million of Gaza’s 2.3 million population are currently displaced.
    Almost 500,000 Gazans are currently experiencing catastrophic levels of food insecurity.
    Palestinian injuries from October 7 – September 29: at least 102,059 (including at least 96,359 in Gaza and 5,700 in the West Bank, including 830 children). [It remains unknown how many Americans are among the casualties in Gaza.]

    Reported Israeli death toll from October 7, 2023 – September 29, 2024: ~1,457 (~1,139 on October 7, 2023, of which ~32 were Americans, and ~36 were children); 293*** military forces since the ground invasion began in Gaza; 25 military and civilians in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Israel) and~10,000 injured.

    The death toll in Lebanon since October 8, 2023 is 1,640 (104 children, 194 women) and 8,408 injuries. More recently, since September 16, 1,030 have been killed, 6,352 have been injured., with 6,352 injuries, the Lebanese Health Ministry said on Saturday, September 28.

    NOTE: It is unknown at this time how many of the deaths and injuries of Israelis on October 7 were caused by Israeli soldiers.

    *Previously, IAK did not include 471 Gazans killed in the Al Ahli hospital blast since the source of the projectile was being disputed. However, given that much evidence points to Israel as the culprit, Israel had previously bombed the hospital and has attacked many others, Israel is prohibiting outside experts from investigating the scene, and since the UN and other agencies are including the deaths from the attack in their cumulative totals, if Americans knew is now also doing so.

    **Euro-Med Monitor reports that Gaza’s elderly are dying at an alarmingly high rate. The majority die at home and are buried either close to their residences or in makeshift graves dispersed across the Strip. There are currently more than 140 such cemeteries. Additionally, according to Euromed, thousands have died from starvation, malnourishment, and inadequate medical care; these are considered indirect victims as they were not registered in hospitals.

    ***The figure does not include the reportedly 53 Israeli soldiers – nearly 16% of the total Israeli military deaths – killed due to friendly fire in Gaza and other military-related accidents.

    † For most of the conflict, women and children accounted for about 70% of deaths in Gaza, with children making up a little over 40% of those killed, according to official statistics.

At least four Palestinians were killed and several others injured in an Israeli airstrike on the Umm al-Fahm School in the town of Beit Lahia, which serves to shelter displaced civilians in the northern Gaza Strip. The Lebanese health ministry has reported that Israeli air strikes on Sunday killed at least 109 individuals and left 364 others wounded across the country. An entire family of 17 members was wiped out by an Israeli airstrike on Sunday in the town of Zboud, in the Bekaa Valley in eastern Lebanon, Lebanese media said. In Yemen, at least four people were killed and 49 others injured in Israeli airstrikes on the western city of Al Hudaydah on Sunday, the Houthi group said. Around 17,000 children killed in Israeli war on Gaza, Palestinian authorities say Anadolu Agency reports: Around 17,000 Palestinian children have been killed in Israel’s ongoing war on the Gaza Strip since last October, according to local authorities on Sunday. “Around 25,973 Palestinian children now live in Gaza without one or both parents due to the Israeli aggression,” Ismail al-Thawabta, who heads Gaza’s government media office, told Anadolu. He said at least 16,859 children, including 171 infants, have been killed in Israeli attacks since Oct. 7, 2023. The UN Children’s Fund (UNICEF) has repeatedly warned that “Gaza’s children have endured unimaginable horrors” under relentless Israeli attacks.

Mahmoud ssa / Anadolu via Getty Images (photo) Gaza: Israel’s destruction of agricultural land is expression of its insistence on committing genocide Euro Med Monitor reports: Israel has once again destroyed hundreds of dunams of agricultural land, depriving Palestinians in the northern Gaza Strip of agricultural land and resources vital to survival, all in support of its illegal blockade of the Strip and tight restrictions on the entry of food supplies for almost a full year. This is an expression of Israel’s insistence on committing genocide against Palestinians in the enclave. Israel has forced over 75% of agricultural land in the Gaza Strip from the Palestinian people’s hands, either by isolating it in preparation for illegally annexing it to its military “buffer zone” or by bulldozing or otherwise damaging it, thereby destroying the Strip’s supply of fruits, vegetables, and meat. This destruction is part of a larger Israeli plan that dates back to last October. Under this plan, Israeli forces have worked to eliminate almost 80% of the agricultural land in the Gaza Strip from use by Palestinians. Israel has done this either by isolating it in preparation for its forcible annexation to the so-called “buffer zone” or by bulldozing or destroying it by other means, such as bombardment—all of which are in violation of international law. According to the Euro-Med Monitor field team, Israeli forces stormed the area of Al-Shimaa in Beit Lahia, northern Gaza, early on Tuesday morning (25 September 2024). Accompanied by military bulldozers, the forces began their bulldozing operations, destroying more than 500 dunums of newly replanted agricultural land, which was supposed to sustain the needs of the people living in northern Gaza, who are subject to an arbitrary siege and systematic starvation by Israel. The Israeli destruction of these agricultural lands, the majority of which were filled with eggplants, reflects Israel’s insistence on preventing the Palestinian people from depending on the region’s agricultural food basket during a period when sufficient supplies of vegetables and other foods are being kept out of the northern Gaza Strip. This has led to a severe famine, to the point where a significant portion of the people in the north have been forced to eat tree leaves and bake ground-up animal feed instead of flour.

Palestinian security in Gaza says spying devices found in displacement camps Middle East Monitor reports: The Palestinian security services in Gaza have in recent days seized Israeli spying equipment planted in a shelter for displaced families in the southern Gaza Strip, a Palestinian resistance media platform reported on its Telegram channel yesterday. The platform quoted a security officer as saying that “the [Israeli] occupation intelligence had disguised the seized spying devices with different shapes, so they appear as part of the surrounding and natural environment including in the form of a rock.” The officer suggested the Israeli intelligence planted the spying devices via Quadcopter drones, calling on everyone “not to tamper with any suspicious devices and to contact the security officers immediately.” Tent camp near Al-Aqsa Hospital that was hit by a deadly Israeli air attack [Abdallah FS Alattar/Anadolu] Tent camp near Al-Aqsa Hospital that was hit by a recent deadly Israeli air attack [Abdallah FS Alattar/Anadolu] (photo) From Gaza to Lebanon: Israel’s Bombing Campaign Backed by Media Propaganda MintPress News reports: Western corporate media outlets, including the BBC, CNN, and The New York Times, have been working overtime to justify Israel’s recent assault on Lebanon, which claimed the lives of approximately 600 people in a single day. These reports have repeatedly claimed that the Israeli strikes were targeting “Hezbollah positions,” an assertion that has been widely echoed without substantial scrutiny. Israel’s large-scale onslaught against civilian areas throughout Lebanon, which began on Monday, was covered by Western corporate media as “strikes on Hezbollah.” CNN’s story on the first day of the assault, after around 500 people had been killed across Lebanon, was titled, “Israeli Strikes Targeting Hezbollah Kill Hundreds Across Lebanon.” The New York Times set up a live events feed labeled “Israel Strikes Hezbollah Targets in Lebanon.” Even Reuters and the Associated Press, two of the most reputable Western news providers, framed the events as an escalation from “both sides,” covering Israel’s attack on Hezbollah. A Reuters article published Tuesday opens with a telling lede: “An Israeli airstrike on Beirut killed a senior Hezbollah commander on Tuesday as cross-border rocket attacks by both sides increased fears of a full-fledged war in the Middle East, and Lebanon said only Washington could help end the fighting.” Israel has made no secret of the fact that it is targeting civilians, as demonstrated by its release of a CGI video showing mockups of Lebanese villages, where missiles are allegedly stored in homes. Despite this, much of the Western media has yet to acknowledge these admissions. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu dispelled any remaining doubt when he delivered a message in English to the people of Lebanon in which he claimed, “Hezbollah has been using you as human shields.” He further stated, “They’ve placed rockets in your living rooms” and “missiles in your garage.” (Read the full analysis here.) Garbage situation in Gaza is catastrophic Various agencies report: UNRWA, the United Nations group serving Palestinian refugees, says: Mountains of garbage are piling up in Gaza middle areas as sewage leaks onto streets. Families have no choice but to live beside the accumulated waste, exposed to the reek and the threat of a looming health disaster. Sanitary and living conditions across Gaza are inhumane. According to ReliefWeb, the waste management system in Gaza, already limited before the war, has now completely collapsed as collection vehicles have been destroyed and access to official landfills is refused by the Israeli military. Waste attracts rodents and insects resulting in the spread of infectious diseases such as cholera or skin diseases, while waste burning, a disposal method that locals use to manage the current emergency, worsens air pollution which in turn can result in further respiratory problems. People, many of whom are children, scavenging waste for food and sustenance, face additional risks from hazardous materials, which include medical waste and industrial chemicals. There are also growing indications that conflict pollution is risked with the spread of antimicrobial resistance, a development that can deepen the medical health crisis. Large waste dumps are also a threat to the soil and groundwater, as leachate, a toxic mix that spills from the waste, seeps into the land and affects groundwater, while in the long-term, increased methane release from landfills contributes to an increase of greenhouse gas emissions.

We have no other choice,” he noted. Mikati also reaffirmed Lebanon’s commitment to United Nations Security Council Resolution 1701, which calls for a cessation of hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah.

He said his office is conducting a series of investigations related to the failures that led to the Oct. 7 attack. “We are nearing completion of this report, but to finalize it, we need to meet with three individuals in the military,” Englman added. He emphasized that Army Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi believes that the State Comptroller’s office should not intervene in military issues, declaring him “wrong.” The State Comptroller’s office is Israel’s central institution for overseeing various state agencies to ensure public financial accountability.

In March, Kushner sparked controversy when he publicly praised the “very valuable potential” of “waterfront property” in Gaza, in comments that gave a window into what Trump’s policy on Palestine could be during his second term. During Trump’s presidency, Kushner played a major role in negotiating the “Abraham Accords”: normalization deals between Israel and the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Sudan and Morocco. Palestinians slammed the agreements as “a stab in the back of the Palestinian cause and the Palestinian people”. At one point, Trump’s son-in-law described Gaza as having no historical context – “It was the result of a war – you had tribes that went different places and then Gaza became a thing.” Before leading in the creation of Trump’s so-called Deal of the Century, Kushner claimed his expertise on the subject came from reading 25 books about Palestine. Russian foreign minister urges Israel to abandon ‘essentially terrorist methods of settling political scores’ Anadolu Agency reports: Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov urged Israel on Saturday to abandon “essentially terrorist methods of settling political scores” as he commented on the assassination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. Lavrov said at a news conference in New York that he had the impression that Israel is trying to provoke Iran and the Lebanese resistance group, Hezbollah, to push the US into direct involvement in the conflict in the Middle East. The Russian diplomat noted that Nasrallah’s murder was not the first provocative step by Israel. Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh was killed in July in the Iranian capital of Tehran where he went to take part in the funeral of President Ebrahim Raisi. Before that, Israel attacked the Iranian diplomatic mission in the Syrian capital of Damascus. “Apparently, Israel wants to create a reason for the US to get involved in this war. And in order to create this reason, it has been provoking both Iran and Hezbollah. In this situation, Iranian leadership is behaving extremely responsibly,” he said. “I don’t think this is the right course, I am convinced that the bloodshed must be stopped.” Asked about Israel’s willingness to implement UN Security Council resolutions, Lavrov said: “I do not see Israel’s desire to carry out any peace plans.” Lebanese Red Cross teams conducted search and rescue operations in the rubble of collapsed buildings following an Israeli army attack in Nabatieh province of southern Lebanon, on September 27, 2024.

    Mass Walkout as ‘Global Pariah’ Netanyahu Addresses UN General Assembly

    Common Dreams reports:

    A large number of diplomats and other officials walked out of the United Nations General Assembly in New York City on Friday as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu prepared to defend his nation’s slaughter of more than 41,000 people in the Gaza Strip during the past year and over 700 in Lebanon this week.

    Journalists and critics of the “global pariah” shared photos and videos of people filing out of the hall before Netanyahu’s address—which came just a day after 25 anti-genocide protesters were arrested for blocking his motorcade in Manhattan.

    While there was some audience applause from the sparsely populated room on Friday, Al Jazeera Arabic’s Rami Ayari explained that “the people you hear cheering the PM during the speech are in the gallery who he brought for that purpose.”

    Netanyahu began his Friday address by taking aim at the world leaders who throughout the week have condemned the recent escalation against Hezbollah in Lebanon as well as the past year of Israeli forces bombing and starving Palestinians in Gaza.

    “I didn’t intend to come here this year. My country is at war fighting for its life,” Netanyahu said. “But, after I heard the lies and slanders leveled at my country by many of the speakers standing at this podium, I decided to come here and set the record straight.”

    Armed with more of his infamous maps of the Middle East, the right-wing leader went on to claim that “Israel seeks peace,” while also pledging to wage war on Hamas-governed Gaza until “total victory” and telling “the tyrants of Tehran” that “if you strike us, we will strike you.”

    Noting that Netanyahu also spoke of “savage enemies who seek to destroy our common civilization,” James Zogby, co-founder and president of the Arab American Institute, said: “Words spoken by the man who has been charged with genocide and crimes against humanity. This is a disgrace. Abusing the General Assembly platform to lie and incite.”

    JEWISH NEWS SYNDICATE (JNS) ADDS: Linda Thomas-Greenfield, the U.S. envoy to the global body, and Robert Wood, the political special affairs ambassador who tends to take her place at the Security Council, did not appear to be in the room.

    An excerpt from Netanyahu’s defiant speech to the UN – to a largely empty chamber, except for the guest area, which was filled with Israel supporters:



    Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also declared,

    I say to you, until Israel – until the Jewish state – is treated like other nations, until this anti-Semitic swamp is drained, the UN will be viewed by fair-minded people everywhere as nothing more than a contemptuous farce.

    Popularity of Netanyahu’s Likud party grows as Israel pounds Lebanon: Survey

    Al Jazeera reports:

    A poll conducted by Israeli daily Maariv shows that Israel’s deadly attacks on Lebanon have significantly boosted the popularity of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud party.

    If elections were held today, Likud would lead with 25 seats in the Knesset, compared with 19 for its main rival, the opposition National Unity party led by Benny Gantz, the survey showed.

    This is the first time since the war on Gaza began last year that Likud has gained such an advantage, the newspaper said.

    Blinken faces calls to resign after lying to Congress to cover for Israel’s genocide

    Middle East Monitor reports:

    US Secretary of State Antony Blinken is facing mounting pressure to resign after a report earlier this week uncovered that he misled Congress about Israel’s obstruction of humanitarian aid to Gaza.

    The 62-year-old, who is a staunch Zionist, is said to have misled the American people to maintain US weapons flow to Israel despite fears that the apartheid state is committing genocide in Gaza.

    The report details how Blinken contradicted findings from his own department’s experts and USAID in a May report to Congress, stating that Israel was not “prohibiting or otherwise restricting the transport or delivery of US humanitarian assistance” to Gaza.

    It’s believed that Blinken misled the government because US law prohibits the supply of arms to countries blocking American humanitarian aid.

    Israel is a small country lacking the means to manufacture weapons at a rate required to execute regular wars and preserve its so-called deterrence capacity.

    Israel’s ability to carry out a year-long assault on Gaza would be severely hampered without the constant supply of weapons from the US and its western allies.

    US to ‘adjust’ its military force posture in Middle East

    Al Jazeera reports:

    President Joe Biden directed the Pentagon to “assess and adjust as necessary US force posture” in the Middle East, the White House says, following repeated Israeli air strikes in southern Beirut collapsed at least six residential towers in the heavily populated Dahiyeh area.

    “He has directed the Pentagon to assess and adjust as necessary US force posture in the region to enhance deterrence, ensure force protection, and support the full range of US objectives,” the White House said in a statement.

    Secretary of State Blinken said Friday, “I want to be clear that anyone using this moment to target American personnel, American interests in the region – the United States will take every measure to defend our people.”

    MILITARY TIMES ADDS: The U.S. has kept an increased military presence in the Middle East throughout much of the past year, with about 40,000 forces, at least a dozen warships and four Air Force fighter jet squadrons spread across the region both to protect allies and to serve as a deterrent against attacks, several U.S. officials said.

    Israel accused of breaking global labor law by withholding Palestinian worker pay

    The Guardian reports:

    Ten trade unions have accused Israel of breaching international labor law by holding back pay and benefits from more than 200,000 Palestinian workers since 7 October.

    The Israeli government stands accused of “blatant” violations of the International Labor Organization’s (ILO) protection of wages convention, tipping many Palestinians into extreme poverty.

    Workers from Gaza and the West Bank, employed in Israel, did not receive payment for work completed prior to last October 7th, and have received no wages since, according to the complaint.

    A complaint filed on Friday aims to recover the wages of Palestinian workers who previously worked in Israel.

    Israel revoked work permits for about 13,000 Palestinian workers from the Gaza Strip to work legally in Israel following the Hamas attack on 7 October, according to the complaint, leaving those workers with unpaid wages from September and October. Those wages would have normally been paid on 9 October.

    An additional nearly 200,000 Palestinian workers from the West Bank employed in Israel have not been permitted to enter Israel, and have received no termination notices, according to the brief, which argues they are owed wages stipulated by their employment contracts for their previous work and subsequent months.

    The unions allege that Israel is violating the ILO’s protection of wages convention, which has been ratified by a hundred member states, including Israel in 1959…

    US’ Blinken urges diplomacy as Israel intensifies attacks in Lebanon

    Anadolu Agency reports:

    US Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Friday called for path to diplomacy as Israel intensified its strikes in Lebanon, warning both Israel and Hezbollah to “stop firing”.

    “The most important thing to do through diplomacy is to try first to stop firing in both directions, and then to use the time that we would have in such a ceasefire to see if we can reach a broader diplomatic agreement,” Blinken told reporters at a news conference on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly (UNGA) in New York.

    “The path to diplomacy may seem difficult to see at this moment, but it is there, and in our judgment, is necessary, and we will continue to work intensely with all parties to urge them to choose that course,” he said.

    NOTE: Blinken’s both-sides-ism sidesteps the facts: Israel has been responsible for about 82 percent of the cross-border attacks.



    Google Was Set to Host an Israeli Military Conference. When We Asked About It, the Event Disappeared.

    The Intercept reports:

    The Israel Defense Tech Conference, aimed at tech companies working with the Israeli military, was scheduled for November at the Google for Startups campus in Tel Aviv.

    The event, according to a listing posted on the event management app Luma, was pitched at “founders, investors and innovators” looking to network and learn more about the defense tech space.

    It was co-sponsored by Google; Fusion Venture Capital; Genesis, a startup accelerator; and the Israeli military’s research and development arm, known as the Directorate of Defense Research and Development (DDR&D, or Ma’fat).

    Google was not only listed as the physical host of the event and one of its sponsors, but the event listing also included a notice that attendees “approve of sharing [their] details with the organizers (Fusion & Google)” as part of signing up.

    When The Intercept contacted Google and the other companies and venture capital firms on the event page, the event page disappeared. Google spokesperson Andréa Willis told The Intercept in an email, “Google is not associated with this event.”

    Willis did not respond when asked how this could be possible if Google is hosting and co-sponsoring the event, or why the event page went down. None of the other companies or venture capital firms on the event page responded to requests for comment.

    After months of sustained protests against Google’s relationship with Israel, the company appears to be trying to muddy that relationship, at least in the public eye, while continuing its collaboration with the Israeli military…

The Israeli government stands accused of “blatant” violations of the International Labor Organization’s (ILO) protection of wages convention, tipping many Palestinians into extreme poverty. Workers from Gaza and the West Bank, employed in Israel, did not receive payment for work completed prior to last October 7th, and have received no wages since, according to the complaint. A complaint filed on Friday aims to recover the wages of Palestinian workers who previously worked in Israel. Israel revoked work permits for about 13,000 Palestinian workers from the Gaza Strip to work legally in Israel following the Hamas attack on 7 October, according to the complaint, leaving those workers with unpaid wages from September and October. Those wages would have normally been paid on 9 October. An additional nearly 200,000 Palestinian workers from the West Bank employed in Israel have not been permitted to enter Israel, and have received no termination notices, according to the brief, which argues they are owed wages stipulated by their employment contracts for their previous work and subsequent months. The unions allege that Israel is violating the ILO’s protection of wages convention, which has been ratified by a hundred member states, including Israel in 1959… (Read the full article here.)

When We Asked About It, the Event Disappeared. The Intercept reports: The Israel Defense Tech Conference, aimed at tech companies working with the Israeli military, was scheduled for November at the Google for Startups campus in Tel Aviv. The event, according to a listing posted on the event management app Luma, was pitched at “founders, investors and innovators” looking to network and learn more about the defense tech space. It was co-sponsored by Google; Fusion Venture Capital; Genesis, a startup accelerator; and the Israeli military’s research and development arm, known as the Directorate of Defense Research and Development (DDR&D, or Ma’fat). Google was not only listed as the physical host of the event and one of its sponsors, but the event listing also included a notice that attendees “approve of sharing [their] details with the organizers (Fusion & Google)” as part of signing up. When The Intercept contacted Google and the other companies and venture capital firms on the event page, the event page disappeared. Google spokesperson Andréa Willis told The Intercept in an email, “Google is not associated with this event.” Willis did not respond when asked how this could be possible if Google is hosting and co-sponsoring the event, or why the event page went down. None of the other companies or venture capital firms on the event page responded to requests for comment. After months of sustained protests against Google’s relationship with Israel, the company appears to be trying to muddy that relationship, at least in the public eye, while continuing its collaboration with the Israeli military… (Read the full investigation here.) israeli espionage against the US hits 366 billion Israeli espionage against the US is hurting the US economy – and has been for years.

  • Trump’s Conspiracy Theory Campaign
    Stoking and exploiting racist fears of immigrants is essentially all that Trump is running on.

    Donald Trump doesn’t try to campaign on any real issues. Instead, he traffics in racist tropes and conspiracy theories as he tries to get Americans to go down a rabbit hole into a dark alternate reality where immigrants kidnap and eat cats, the 2020 election was stolen, vaccines are poison, and Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris is not really Black.

    He has filled his third campaign for the presidency with a team that peddles conspiracy theorists, including Laura Loomer, JD Vance, and Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

    Racism, misogyny, and anti-intellectualism are at the heart of many of Trumpworld’s conspiracy theories, but it is up to Trump’s most loyal MAGA cultists to sort out the political meaning of each new harebrained idea they are told to believe. Meanwhile, the nation’s political press corps lags far behind trying to fact-check Trump and his minions, like King Canute trying to hold back the tide.

    Above all, Trump has built his campaign around conspiracy theories designed to stoke racist fears of immigrants and minorities, exploiting the hysteria that grips many white Americans over the demographic changes of the last few decades that have transformed the U.S. into a more diverse nation.

    This is not new for Trump, who announced his 2016 campaign alleging Mexican immigrants were criminals and rapists. But this time around, stoking and exploiting racist fears of immigrants is essentially all that he’s running on.

    Trump has frequently said that nonwhite immigrants are “poisoning the blood of the country.”

    America’s Racist, Xenophobic, and Highly Specific Fear of Haiti

    Considering his rhetoric, Trump’s campaign slogan might as well be “Blood and Soil.” That was the Nazi slogan calling for a racially pure Aryan German nation built around the pastoral ideal of rural life. It was also the original headline on a September 14 column in the New York Times by Jamelle Bouie describing Vance’s willingness to spread false conspiracy claims that Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, were kidnapping and eating cats. Faced with complaints from Trump operatives and other right-wingers, the New York Times softened the headline to mush.

    But “Blood and Soil” does capture what Trump and his legion of conspiracy theorists are doing. Trump and the MAGA cult have turned their backs on the cherished American tradition that the United States is unique because it is built on shared beliefs, rather than whether someone was born here or immigrated here.

    Members of Trump’s legion of conspiracy theorists live in their own swamps of lies and disinformation.

    Loomer, an extremely online far-right figure who until now was perhaps best known for spreading the lie that 9/11 was an inside job, has been traveling closely with Trump during the campaign. Kennedy, meanwhile, who ended his fringe presidential campaign and endorsed Trump in August, has a long history of spreading anti-vaccine misinformation and has branched out to add baseless conspiracy theories that Wi-Fi causes cancer, that anti-depressants cause school shootings, and that chemicals in the water supply could turn children transgender.

    What binds these conspiracy theories together is the way they are designed to damage the credibility of experts, scientists, and governments.
    What binds these conspiracy theories together is the way they are designed to damage the credibility of experts, scientists, and governments. Well-informed and educated voters have fled Trump and MAGA, and he relies on so-called low information voters instead.

    They are far more susceptible than other voters to Trump’s racist lies, and winning over these voters with conspiracy theories is a way for Trump to shore up his base.

    While spreading the lie that Haitians are eating pets in Springfield, Trump and Vance have refused to denounce bomb threats and other threats of violence targeting the city as a result of their lies. The threats of violence have gotten so bad that the Ohio state police have had to step in and announce that it will help protect schools in Springfield, while Republican Gov. Mike DeWine personally debunked the rumors spread by Trump and Vance.

    Vance’s role in spreading the vile falsehood about the immigrants eating pets has been particularly egregious — since he knows that he has continued to lie even after he and his staff were told that the stories weren’t true. He’s now added new lies that Haitian immigrants are causing an increase in communicable diseases in Springfield, which the director of the Ohio health department quickly said was false.

    Of all of the members of Trump’s conspiracy legion, Vance is the most intriguing, because we can now watch, in real time, as he descends into a conspiracy theory-fueled alternative reality. Loomer and Kennedy have long since left reality behind, but Vance was as recently as 2016 lionized as a bestselling author and an important new literary voice and a Trump critic. Unlike many others who have slowly fallen into the madness of the alt-world, Vance seems to be making a very conscious choice to suddenly jump in, as if that was part of his bargain to become Trump’s running mate.

    On CNN last weekend, Vance admitted as much.

    When confronted with the fact that he is spreading lies about Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Vance said, “If I have to create stories so that the American media actually pays attention to the suffering of the American people, then that’s what I’m going to do.”

    Vance has sold his soul. Just like every other Republican who has allowed the GOP to be captured by conspiracy theorists.

    The Palestinian civil defense in Gaza has said that 56 people, mostly women and children, have been killed by Israeli bombing over the past 24 hours.

    A mother and four of her children were killed on Tuesday evening in an Israeli airstrike on Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip.
    The death toll from Israel’s assault on Lebanon has risen to at least 569 people since Monday, according to Lebanon’s Health Minister Firas Abiad.

    Israeli military offers animation, wild speculation as pretext for attacking civilian structures – again

    IAK reports:

    The Israeli military released an animated video purporting to illustrate how Hezbollah has been storing enormous weaponry inside Lebanese civilian homes. While offering no evidence (or explanation of how heavy weapons could get to the upper floors of buildings), Israel is using this “information” to justify its targeting of civilian structures across southern Lebanon.

    In addition to the alleged weapons storage, one expert said, “Israel believes that they have sufficient documented evidence that there are a network for fortifications and tunnels in the vicinity of homes.” This “evidence” has not been shared.



    The animations are reminiscent of Israel’s earlier depiction of the Al Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, which it alleged was a cover for a massive underground “command and control center” for Hamas. No evidence was provided before the Israeli military relentlessly attacked the hospital, and no such structure was ever found.



    As if to clarify further to the West Israel’s innocence in the killing of Lebanese civilians, Prime Minister Netanyahu declared in English Tuesday, “I say to the people of Lebanon: Our war is not with you. Our war is with Hezbollah. I told you yesterday to evacuate homes in which there is a missile in the living room and a rocket in the garage. Whoever [does not] will no longer have a home.”

    The irony of Israel’s demand that Hezbollah stop firing rockets

    Various outlets report:

    Israeli former War Cabinet member Benny Gantz reportedly threatened on Tuesday that if Hezbollah does not stop launching rockets at Israel, Tel Aviv will carry out a ground operation in southern Lebanon.

    The warning is heavy with irony, as Israel has been responsible for about 82 percent of the cross-border attacks.

    Just one day earlier, on Monday 23 September, Israel’s military conducted over 1,500 strikes in Lebanon, while Hezbollah fired about 240 rockets.

    On Tuesday, the IDF itself reported that Hezbollah fired over 300 rockets from Lebanon, a record since beginning of war.

    Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said of Monday’s efforts – which resulted in hundreds of Lebanese deaths, “Today was a masterpiece… This was the worst week Hezbollah has had since its establishment, and the results speak for themselves.

    In fact, the Israeli military described the air strikes on Lebanon as one of the largest campaigns in its history, with 250 fighter jets dropping 2,000 munitions.



    US delaying Israeli request to replenish munitions and missile interceptors

    Middle East Eye reports:

    The Biden administration may be slow-rolling a new Israeli request to refill its arms and munitions stockpiles, raising some questions among US officials whether or not it is trying to apply pressure on Israel to stop a full-scale offensive on Lebanon, Middle East Eye can reveal.

    Israel submitted an “extensive” three-page request last week for additional munitions and armaments to the Biden administration, a senior US official and former US official told MEE.

    Last week’s request includes more US military aid and foreign military sales, the latter of which Israel buys with its sovereign funds.

    Vast majority of Monday’s casualties in Lebanon were civilians: Health Minister

    New York Times reports:

    Lebanese Health Minister Dr. Firass Abiad said on Tuesday that the “overwhelming majority, if not all,” of the people killed and wounded by Israel’s bombardment in Lebanon on Monday were civilians.

    The latest health toll from Lebanon’s Health Ministry puts the number killed by the Monday bombing at 558, which includes 50 children and 94 women. Nearly 2,000 were wounded in the attack.

    The toll in Israel’s bombardment is about half of the toll for the entire 2006 Lebanon War, which lasted 34 days.



    In CNN interview, Iran’s president warns against Lebanon turning into ‘another Gaza,’ says Hezbollah can’t face Israel alone

    CNN interview:

    Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian told CNN that Israel must be stopped from turning Lebanon into “another Gaza,” adding that Hezbollah “can’t do that alone.”

    Israel’s extensive strikes on Hezbollah in Lebanon are “a human and humanitarian crisis” that risks tipping the region into wider conflict, Iran’s new president told CNN’s Fareed Zakaria in an exclusive interview.

    “The danger does exist that the fire of events that are taking place (in Lebanon) will expand to the entire region,” Pezeshkian said.

    When asked whether Iran will counsel Hezbollah to restrain itself in its response to Israeli strikes, Pezeshkian said Hezbollah is facing a country “armed to the teeth and has access to weapons systems that are far superior to anything else.”

    “We must not allow for Lebanon to become another Gaza at the hands of Israel,” he warned.

    “Hezbollah cannot do that alone. Hezbollah cannot stand alone against a country that is being defended and supported and supplied by Western countries, European countries, and the United States of America.”

    Pezeshkian spoke with CNN as world leaders gather for the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) on Tuesday, in which hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon are expected to dominate the discussion agenda.

    Pezeshkian warned that events could spiral into a regional conflict, which “can be dangerous for the future of the world and planet Earth itself, so we must prevent the ongoing criminal acts being committed by Israel.”



    New Testimonies of Horrific Torture in Israeli Prison Camp

    IMEMC reports:

    The Palestinian Prisoners’ Affairs Commission has released a new report detailing the horrific conditions in the Israeli torture prison in the Negev desert.

    The testimonies of the eight detainees included details of the crimes of torture, abuse, and horrific attacks to which they were subjected, specifically during the first period of their detention, before they were transferred to the Negev prison.

    According to the available data from the Gaza detainees in the Negev prison, there are about 1,200 detainees from Gaza in the Negev prison.

    It is worth mentioning that the Israeli occupation authorities imposed the crime of enforced disappearance on thousands of detainees in Gaza.

    Several months ago, in light of some legal amendments that were made, human rights organizations were able to make limited visits to detainees in Gaza.

    However, many of them are still subject to enforced disappearance, in addition to thousands of missing persons.

    The Israeli occupation also refuses to this day to allow the International Committee of the Red Cross to visit them or to know any information related to them.

    This is in addition to the set of major obstacles that legal teams have faced since the beginning of the war in following up on them and visiting them.

    West Bank: Israeli Forces Kill a Palestinian Near Hebron

    IMEMC reports:

    Israeli forces killed a Palestinian young man, and injured three others, late Tuesday night, after invading the Al-Fawwar refugee camp, north of Hebron in the southern occupied West Bank.

    Medical sources at the Yatta Governmental Hospital announced that the young man, Yahya Daniel Awad, 29, succumbed to his critical injuries after occupation forces shot him in the chest with live ammunition.

    Sources added that occupation forces fired many live rounds and tear gas canisters, shooting four young men with live rounds, including Awad. The other three survived.

    It is important to mention that the slain young man was a married father of a young child, and his wife is pregnant with their second child; he was an employee of the Hebron Municipality.

    Since the beginning of the Israeli military onslaught against the Gaza Strip on October 7, 2023, Israeli forces have killed 717 Palestinians in the West Bank, including 160 children, and injured 5,700.

    UN refugee agency says 2 staffers killed in latest Israeli airstrikes in Lebanon

    Andalou Agency reports:

    The chief of UNHCR, the UN refugee agency, confirmed Tuesday that two staffers were among the hundreds who have been killed in the latest Israeli airstrikes in Lebanon.

    “Israeli airstrikes in Lebanon are now relentlessly claiming hundreds of civilian lives. And I am very saddened to confirm that two UNHCR colleagues were also killed yesterday,” Filippo Grandi wrote on X.

    Grand extended condolences to their families, friends and colleagues on behalf of all at the UNHCR.

    Commissioner-General of UNRWA, the refugee agency specifically for Palestinians, wrote on September 11th that Israel had killed at least 220 UNRWA staff since the war began.

    “Humanitarian staff, premises and operations have been blatantly and unabatedly disregarded since the beginning of the war,” he said, warning that “the longer impunity prevails, the more international humanitarian law and the Geneva conventions will become irrelevant.

    In swan song to UN General Assembly, Biden’s bias was on full display

    IAK reports:

    In his final address to the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday, President Joe Biden arguably spent more time reciting the events of October 7th than discussing the developments in the ensuing 350+ days.

    When Biden did mention the people of Gaza, it was in passive terms: they have been killed, dislocated, crowded into tents – why and by whom, and where the firepower came from, he didn’t say. Regarding the West Bank, he acknowledged the “rise of violence against innocent Palestinians” without an indication of the source of the violence – Israel’s extremist settlers, backed by the Israeli military.

    But his verb choices when referring to Hamas were both specific and evocative:’ “slaughtering” and “massacring,”; and he was unequivocal about Israel’s supposed “right” to defend itself (in fact, Israel has no such right, but Palestinians do have the right to resist their occupier).

    Biden also declared, “Full-scale war is not in anyone’s interest,” adding, “Even as the situation has escalated, a diplomatic solution is still possible” – a solution he claims to have been “working tirelessly to achieve,” while selling massive quantities of non-diplomatic weapons to Israel.

    President Joe Biden will leave the international community – especially the Middle East – less safe and less stable than ever.

    In UN address, South African president welcomed international support for genocide case against Israel

    Andalou Agency reports:

    South African President Cyril Ramaphosa on Tuesday welcomed international support for the genocide case against Israel his country filed last December at the International Court of Justice (ICJ).

    Addressing the UN General Assembly in New York, Ramaphosa said,

    The violence that Palestinian people are being subjected to is a grim continuation of more than half-a-century of apartheid that has been perpetrated against Palestinians by Israel. We South Africans know what apartheid looks like. We lived through apartheid, we suffered and died under apartheid, we will not remain silent and watch as apartheid is perpetrated against others.

    The only lasting solution is the establishment of the Palestinian state, a state that will exist side by side with Israel, with East Jerusalem as its capital.

    South Africa filed the case with The Hague-based tribunal late last year, accusing Israel, which began a relentless offensive against Gaza last October, of failing to uphold its commitments under the 1948 Genocide Convention.

    Several countries – including Türkiye, Nicaragua, Palestine, Spain, Mexico, Libya and Colombia – have joined the case, which began public hearings in January.

    Hundreds cross into Syria from Lebanon: Report

    Al Jazeera reports:

    Some 500 people have crossed from Lebanon to war-torn Syria, a Syrian security official told the AFP news agency, fleeing the deadliest Israeli bombardment since Hezbollah and Israel fought a devastating war in 2006.

    “Around 500 people crossed the border through the Qusayr and Dabousiya crossings between 4pm (1300 GMT) and midnight,” Monday, the security official told AFP, requesting anonymity to discuss sensitive matters.

    “Vehicles were still crossing in the early hours of the morning,” he added.

    STATISTICS OCTOBER 7 – SEPTEMBER 24:

    Palestinian death toll from October 7, 2023 – September 24, 2024: at least 42,212* (41,495 in Gaza* – 11,308 women (30%), 16,715 children as of September 5. [The Ministry’s figures have been contested by the Israeli authorities, although they have been accepted as accurate by Israeli intelligence services, the UN, and WHO. These data are supported by independent analyses, comparing changes in the number of deaths of UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) staff with those reported by the Ministry, which found claims of data fabrication implausible.]

    This is expected to be a significant undercount since thousands of those killed have yet to be identified – and at least 717 in the West Bank (~148 children). This does not include an estimated 10,000 more still buried under rubble (4,900 women and children). Euro-Med Monitor reports 49,032 Palestinian deaths.

    Lancet: “Applying a conservative estimate of four indirect deaths per one direct death9 to the 37,396 deaths reported, it is not implausible to estimate that up to 186 000 or even more deaths could be attributable to the current conflict in Gaza.

    Ralph Nader earlier estimated 300,000 Palestinians may have been killed in Gaza.

    At least 45 Palestinians have died in Israeli prisons (27 from Gaza, 23 from West Bank).
    At least 41 Palestinians have died due to malnutrition (at least 37 of them children)**.
    About 1.9 million of Gaza’s 2.3 million population are currently displaced.
    Almost 500,000 Gazans are currently experiencing catastrophic levels of food insecurity.
    Palestinian injuries from October 7 – September 24: at least 101,706 (including at least 96,006 in Gaza and 5,700 in the West Bank, including 830 children). [It remains unknown how many Americans are among the casualties in Gaza.]

    Reported Israeli death toll from October 7, 2023 – September 24, 2024: ~1,457 (~1,139 on October 7, 2023, of which ~32 were Americans, and ~36 were children); 293*** military forces since the ground invasion began in Gaza; 25 military and civilians in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Israel) and~10,000 injured.

    Hezbollah reports a death toll of 502 fighters since October 8, 2023.

    NOTE: It is unknown at this time how many of the deaths and injuries of Israelis on October 7 were caused by Israeli soldiers.

    *Previously, IAK did not include 471 Gazans killed in the Al Ahli hospital blast since the source of the projectile was being disputed. However, given that much evidence points to Israel as the culprit, Israel had previously bombed the hospital and has attacked many others, Israel is prohibiting outside experts from investigating the scene, and since the UN and other agencies are including the deaths from the attack in their cumulative totals, if Americans knew is now also doing so.

    **Euro-Med Monitor reports that Gaza’s elderly are dying at an alarmingly high rate. The majority die at home and are buried either close to their residences or in makeshift graves dispersed across the Strip. There are currently more than 140 such cemeteries. Additionally, according to Euromed, thousands have died from starvation, malnourishment, and inadequate medical care; these are considered indirect victims as they were not registered in hospitals.

    ***More than 40 of the deaths listed above were Israeli soldiers killed by Hezbollah in fighting at the Israel-Lebanon border. The figure does not include the reportedly 53 Israeli soldiers – nearly 16% of the total Israeli military deaths – killed due to friendly fire in Gaza and other military-related accidents.

    † For most of the conflict, women and children accounted for about 70% of deaths in Gaza, with children making up a little over 40% of those killed, according to official statistics.

A mother and four of her children were killed on Tuesday evening in an Israeli airstrike on Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip. The death toll from Israel’s assault on Lebanon has risen to at least 569 people since Monday, according to Lebanon’s Health Minister Firas Abiad. A Lebanese journalist, Hadi al-Sayed from Al Mayadeen Media Network, has been killed by an Israeli air strike. Civil defence teams and local residents launch search and rescue efforts following the attack by the Israeli army on the home of the Al-Wasifi family in Nuseirat Refugee Camp, located in the central Gaza Strip, which resulted in casualties, including children, in Gaza City, Gaza on September 24, 2024 [Moiz Salhi – Anadolu Agency] Civil defence teams and local residents launch search and rescue efforts following the attack by the Israeli army on the home of the Al-Wasifi family in Nuseirat Refugee Camp, located in the central Gaza Strip, which resulted in casualties, including children, in Gaza City, Gaza on September 24, 2024 [Moiz Salhi – Anadolu Agency] (photo) Israeli military offers animation, wild speculation as pretext for attacking civilian structures – again IAK reports: The Israeli military released an animated video purporting to illustrate how Hezbollah has been storing enormous weaponry inside Lebanese civilian homes. While offering no evidence (or explanation of how heavy weapons could get to the upper floors of buildings), Israel is using this “information” to justify its targeting of civilian structures across southern Lebanon. In addition to the alleged weapons storage, one expert said, “Israel believes that they have sufficient documented evidence that there are a network for fortifications and tunnels in the vicinity of homes.” This “evidence” has not been shared. The animations are reminiscent of Israel’s earlier depiction of the Al Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, which it alleged was a cover for a massive underground “command and control center” for Hamas. No evidence was provided before the Israeli military relentlessly attacked the hospital, and no such structure was ever found. As if to clarify further to the West Israel’s innocence in the killing of Lebanese civilians, Prime Minister Netanyahu declared in English Tuesday, “I say to the people of Lebanon: Our war is not with you. Our war is with Hezbollah. I told you yesterday to evacuate homes in which there is a missile in the living room and a rocket in the garage. Whoever [does not] will no longer have a home.” The irony of Israel’s demand that Hezbollah stop firing rockets Various outlets report: Israeli former War Cabinet member Benny Gantz reportedly threatened on Tuesday that if Hezbollah does not stop launching rockets at Israel, Tel Aviv will carry out a ground operation in southern Lebanon. The warning is heavy with irony, as Israel has been responsible for about 82 percent of the cross-border attacks. Just one day earlier, on Monday 23 September, Israel’s military conducted over 1,500 strikes in Lebanon, while Hezbollah fired about 240 rockets. On Tuesday, the IDF itself reported that Hezbollah fired over 300 rockets from Lebanon, a record since beginning of war. Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said of Monday’s efforts – which resulted in hundreds of Lebanese deaths, “Today was a masterpiece… This was the worst week Hezbollah has had since its establishment, and the results speak for themselves. In fact, the Israeli military described the air strikes on Lebanon as one of the largest campaigns in its history, with 250 fighter jets dropping 2,000 munitions. US delaying Israeli request to replenish munitions and missile interceptors Middle East Eye reports: The Biden administration may be slow-rolling a new Israeli request to refill its arms and munitions stockpiles, raising some questions among US officials whether or not it is trying to apply pressure on Israel to stop a full-scale offensive on Lebanon, Middle East Eye can reveal. Israel submitted an “extensive” three-page request last week for additional munitions and armaments to the Biden administration, a senior US official and former US official told MEE. Last week’s request includes more US military aid and foreign military sales, the latter of which Israel buys with its sovereign funds.

The weapons create small pieces of shrapnel that leave barely discernible entry wounds but create extensive destruction inside the body.

(collage) Vast majority of Monday’s casualties in Lebanon were civilians: Health Minister New York Times reports: Lebanese Health Minister Dr. Firass Abiad said on Tuesday that the “overwhelming majority, if not all,” of the people killed and wounded by Israel’s bombardment in Lebanon on Monday were civilians. The latest health toll from Lebanon’s Health Ministry puts the number killed by the Monday bombing at 558, which includes 50 children and 94 women. Nearly 2,000 were wounded in the attack. The toll in Israel’s bombardment is about half of the toll for the entire 2006 Lebanon War, which lasted 34 days. In CNN interview, Iran’s president warns against Lebanon turning into ‘another Gaza,’ says Hezbollah can’t face Israel alone CNN interview: Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian told CNN that Israel must be stopped from turning Lebanon into “another Gaza,” adding that Hezbollah “can’t do that alone.” Israel’s extensive strikes on Hezbollah in Lebanon are “a human and humanitarian crisis” that risks tipping the region into wider conflict, Iran’s new president told CNN’s Fareed Zakaria in an exclusive interview. “The danger does exist that the fire of events that are taking place (in Lebanon) will expand to the entire region,” Pezeshkian said. When asked whether Iran will counsel Hezbollah to restrain itself in its response to Israeli strikes, Pezeshkian said Hezbollah is facing a country “armed to the teeth and has access to weapons systems that are far superior to anything else.” “We must not allow for Lebanon to become another Gaza at the hands of Israel,” he warned. “Hezbollah cannot do that alone. Hezbollah cannot stand alone against a country that is being defended and supported and supplied by Western countries, European countries, and the United States of America.” Pezeshkian spoke with CNN as world leaders gather for the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) on Tuesday, in which hostilities between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon are expected to dominate the discussion agenda. Pezeshkian warned that events could spiral into a regional conflict, which “can be dangerous for the future of the world and planet Earth itself, so we must prevent the ongoing criminal acts being committed by Israel.” New Testimonies of Horrific Torture in Israeli Prison Camp IMEMC reports: The Palestinian Prisoners’ Affairs Commission has released a new report detailing the horrific conditions in the Israeli torture prison in the Negev desert. The testimonies of the eight detainees included details of the crimes of torture, abuse, and horrific attacks to which they were subjected, specifically during the first period of their detention, before they were transferred to the Negev prison. According to the available data from the Gaza detainees in the Negev prison, there are about 1,200 detainees from Gaza in the Negev prison. It is worth mentioning that the Israeli occupation authorities imposed the crime of enforced disappearance on thousands of detainees in Gaza. Several months ago, in light of some legal amendments that were made, human rights organizations were able to make limited visits to detainees in Gaza. However, many of them are still subject to enforced disappearance, in addition to thousands of missing persons. The Israeli occupation also refuses to this day to allow the International Committee of the Red Cross to visit them or to know any information related to them. This is in addition to the set of major obstacles that legal teams have faced since the beginning of the war in following up on them and visiting them. (Read some prisoners’ testimonies here.) West Bank: Israeli Forces Kill a Palestinian Near Hebron IMEMC reports: Israeli forces killed a Palestinian young man, and injured three others, late Tuesday night, after invading the Al-Fawwar refugee camp, north of Hebron in the southern occupied West Bank.
