Israel-Palestine War: Hamas Breaks Out of Gaza, Israel Responds With Genocide

Russia was very prepared to help the Houti's but held off at the last minute due to the ongoing negotiations that were taking place at the time before the assassinations.
Erdogan will be walking a very dangerous line if he reneges again. He says he would intervene in Israel but so far this is just the usual rhetoric. However he has already betrayed Putin/Russia once, and Putin never ever forgets a betrayal. And since Russia and China are very much backing Iran and Palestine in this then it would be yet another betrayal to Russia.
Russia also has bases in Syria and Erdogan is making tentative moves to cosy up with Syria again. However, quite rightly, Assad states there can be no accords until he stops the killing and disruption/support of Syria's enemies in Syria.
I do feel that even before Russia has come to the aid of Iran, especially on the defence side, and maybe much more but that has to remian secret, that Iran does have some power and strategies that will surprise Israel. Plus I doubt all allies of Palestine and Iran will not join the fray simultaneously, or at least plan a more sustained attacks
This will also mean that Israel will run out of defence missiles very quickly so they will get through to all the intended military targets eventually.
Both USA and UK and most of Europe have practically given most of their weapons to Ukraine, and they cannot manufacture them fast enough to supply Israel for a protracted war.
I think Iran says it manufactures drones like cigarretes! And I am sure they have big nuclear surprises coming. I just hope they are well hidden from Israel.
Plus Iran, Russia and pos China are manufacturing their own defence machinery now. Russia defo has not run out in Ukraine and has plenty for a prolonged war if necessary.
REgarding the bunker that the Israeli cowards wish to flee to and leave the plebs. I read that it only has food storage there for one month. Will supplies be allowed to get to Israel?
The main support that the US is giving Israel is the fully equipped control/support centre in Doha. Obviously manned by US Corps!
I also feel that the psychological 'might' of the USA warships and carriers that turned up in two large batches will just be ideal targets and sitting ducks in this scenario.
There is also another load of US ships deployed in the Straits of Hormuz close to the Iranian borders. So Iran will possibly have to defend from two fronts simultaneously.
The big elephant in the room are the real nuclear weapons the Israel possesses. And the bullies and cowards that they are I feel in their psychopathic hubris if they are quickly losing and/or run out of weapons/defence or whatever, regardless of whether they inflict lethal damage to their own citizens, who they never cared about anyway (and even used as Covid rats purposefully), they WILL use these nukes. And totally indiscrimiately too!
The British Air bases here in Cyprus are also being used to their full capacity and to inflict as much damage as they can - and have - in the Arab world. As Hezbollah have already said, they are allies of Israel and complicit in the killing of innocent Palestinians, civilians and children. So these bases are definitely in the crosshairs too.
Erdogan has promised to protect us in the NOrth of Cyprus. But nobody can protect us from the nukes that Israel will use rather than lose. If they go down they will intend to take everyone with them that they possibly can.
However, like the last strikes that Iran and Hezbollah to, they NEVER intend to inflict casualties on civilians. If it happens it will be wrong place, wrong time unless they are being used as human shields as usual.
Re the C's timeline, I am still waiting to see what comes first. The environmental catastrophe or the war. The future is still open.
One thing is for sure. I will be trying to stay indoors as much as possible when this kicks off, because the toxic pollution will waft over many countries and we are only 100 miles away.

He also does fast coverage and videos on events around this neck of the woods.

Israel has just eliminated the Economy Minister of Palestine for supplying aid and supplies and money to the Palestinians!

The resistance in Iraq have also said they would join in with Iran now.
Itis the usual crowd we need to watch for their true colours: Bahrain, Qatar, Saudi, Egypt, Jordan et al

Closer to home - my mother's loving house cat badly attacked my mum today my sister had to give her first aid she was so badly scratched. The even energies set up a neighbour cat in the garden when mum and her cat Sooty were relaxing looking out of the kitchen patio doors. Sooty went ballistic and attacked mum!
C's did warn us about our 2D friends becoming vectors and attacking us, and I had warned mum ages ago on our previous cat too that had a few goes. I have one here too, even attacks my dog he loves so much!
So Just reminding y'all cos it was a nasty attack.
I know my boy doesnt mean it as within 10 minutes he comes very guiltily to say sorry and licks me to bits.
 
What would happen if Iran did to Israel what Israel is doing to it?

The stakes are high, it feels to me that Iran's red lines are a bit more accommodating than Israel's red lines. In the game of who will blink first, it looks like Iran is willing to take the high road for the sake of peace and stability.
 
Israel responded by warning Tehran that in the event of strikes on any civilian targets, the IDF would attack Iran's nuclear facilities. Israel has also prepared plans for future offensive operations, including against the Lebanese Hezbollah, and all units of the Israel Defense Forces are on standby.

In the event of an attack, Israel promises to destroy all Iranian nuclear facilities without delay

- the warning says.


What can go wrong when you know that the patriot or other missile from the iron dome tend to go off course and land on a soccer field fill with children playing football or on appartments building as in kiev.
What are the odds that another one land on some urban center during the attack accidentally or not. For years Bibi as seek a reason to attack the nuclear facilities of Iran. Well Iran future attack seem to finally offer that opportunity. Never let a good crisis go to waste.

 
In the game of who will blink first, it looks like Iran is willing to take the high road for the sake of peace and stability.
Personally, from the Israeli side, I see eyes that are not able to blink in principle. As we say, insert matches between the eyelids. Try blinking with the matches inserted. That's how it is here, the wildly staring eyes of zombies.

And here are the very "guys in flip-flops" who have the opportunity to proudly pose against the wreckage of an American reconnaissance drone. It is said that this is the seventh such drone shot down by the Houthis. In a sense, I envy them, ours can't do that. I hope so far.
The Houthis shot down the seventh American Mq-9 Reaper reconnaissance aircraft. Ours are still waiting for something.

Я лично со стороны израиля вижу глаза, не способные моргнуть в принципе. Как у нас говорят, вставить спички между веками. Попробуйте моргнуть со вставленными спичками. Вот так и здесь, бешено вытаращенные глаза зомби.
А вот те самые "ребята в шлепках", которые имеют возможность с гордостью позировать на фоне обломков американского дрона-разведчика. Говорят, что это уже седьмой подобный дрон, сбитый хуситами. В каком то смысле я им завидую, наши так не могут. Я надеюсь, что пока.
 
Everything was moving. On the eve of...?
US and UK fighter jets spotted in the skies over Iraq
There are at least four US Air Force fighter jets and several British Air Force combat aircraft in the airspace of Iraq and Jordan. A tanker plane has also been spotted in the skies over Iraq. These actions indicate the high combat readiness of Israel's allies and their preparation for a possible large-scale missile strike and drone attack on Israeli territory.

Military experts note that the presence of such significant air forces in the region indicates the seriousness of the situation and the readiness of Israel's allies to act in the event of an escalation of the conflict.

According to sources, Israel's allies are taking all necessary measures to prevent attacks and protect their interests in the region. The presence of tanker aircraft allows the fighters of the US and British Air Forces to stay in the air longer, ensuring continuous patrols and readiness for an immediate response.

Tensions in the region continue to rise amid recent allegations of possible attacks on Israel.

Russia has started supplying advanced S-400 radars and air defense systems to Iran
Russia has begun supplying advanced radars and air defense systems to Iran, The New York Times reports, citing two sources familiar with military planning in Tehran. One of the sources is a member of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, which confirms the high level of reliability of the information.

Tehran has long sought to acquire modern air defense systems, such as the Russian S-400 complexes, in order to strengthen its defense capability. The delivery of advanced radars and air defense systems was an important step in this direction. The Iranian authorities believe that these systems will significantly improve their air defense capabilities and help protect the country's strategic facilities from possible threats.

It is noteworthy that the Russian S-400 can already be deployed on the territory of Iran, as it was previously reported that two Il-76 aircraft with unknown cargo on board arrived in the Islamic Republic. Against the background of the expected strikes from Israel, this may be very relevant.

Explosions in Iran: An explosion occurred in the Isfahan area and a fire started
In Iran, explosions occurred at the base of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) in Isfahan. Strong explosions were heard in the central and western regions of the country, but the causes of the incident remain unknown. The authorities explain what happened by conducting military exercises, but this version raises doubts among some experts.

Simultaneously with these events, it became known that the Israeli military cabinet recommended that the country's leadership consider the possibility of launching a preemptive strike against Iran. This move may be due to concerns about Iran's escalating nuclear program and growing tensions in the region.

According to local residents, the explosions were so powerful that they were felt at a considerable distance from the epicenter. Numerous messages on social networks indicate panic among the population and numerous calls to emergency services.

Official representatives of the Iranian authorities have so far refrained from making detailed comments, limiting themselves to statements that the explosions are related to planned military exercises. However, the lack of specific information and the tense situation in the region give rise to numerous speculations.

The US base in Iraq was attacked

Several US military personnel were injured in a rocket attack on the Ain al-Asad airbase in Anbar province in western Iraq, Reuters reports, citing American officials. One of them was seriously injured.

According to two agency sources in the Iraqi security forces, two Katyusha rockets were fired at the airbase, the shells fell on the territory of the base.

In the photo, an artisanal MLRS, which was fired at an American base: pro-Iranian fighters left the car after the shelling and disappeared into the night.

On July 30, the US military launched an airstrike on the town of Musaib, located in Babil province. The target of the attack, according to AFP, were militants who, according to the United States, were preparing to launch drones and posed a threat to American and coalition forces.

The current attack took place against the backdrop of rising tensions in the Middle East related to the death of one of Hezbollah's commanders, Fuad Mohsen Shokr, as a result of an Israeli strike on Beirut, and the assassination of Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran. Iran blamed Israel for the incident and promised a response. According to Iran's permanent representative to the UN, Amir Said Iravani, "this act would not have been committed without permission, without US intelligence support." White House spokesman John Kirby said that Washington did not know in advance about Israel's plans to strike Tehran in order to kill Haniyeh. The United States has sent additional forces to the Middle East.

Все зашевелилось. В преддверии...?
 
I tried searching for the soldier's name (staff sergeant Shalom Shetrit) and couldn't find the mention of the following testimony. What this soldier says provides additional that there was prior knowledge about the attack on 7th of October, and at least some in the military were clearly "in the know".

Here's a quote about it from this article.

Regarding the events of the night before the October Seventh, he (Shalom Shetrit) recounts how he, along with his friends Yotam Seror and Itamar Ben Yehuda, who was killed in the terrorist attack, sat next to the battalion radio at the Pega outpost near Bari.

"We sat playing on the phone, we had a sleepless night," he said.

In his testimony in the Knesset he noted that because we are talking about the soldiers of the mortar division who could rest the next day, they preferred not to go to sleep and actually replaced the soldier who was supposed to be listening to communications and allowed him to sleep.

At 5:20 in the morning the message arrived. "We were playing on the phone and suddenly a strange message comes up from my deputy battalion commander, who later was mortally wounded and woke up after two months in which he was sedated and ventilated, and what he said is something like this: 'I don't know why, but an order has been issued that there are no patrols on the fence until nine in the morning'".

As a soldier of the mortar division, Shetrit says that every morning the division puts on alert and in his estimation there are no mornings when there are no patrols on the fence, "because you are in an operational battalion and that's how it works."

We asked him the question that was raised by quite a few military personnel, how did it happen that the soldiers did not go on alert at dawn, is it possible that this order left them in bed? To this Shetrit does not reply confidently. "I don't know how to answer this question. We in the mortar division were on alert at dawn and we woke up. It could be that the patrol division told them not to wake up. I don't know. I don't want to just say."

Here is his full testimony in Hebrew.


In the video testimony he recounts a similar story as was described in the article. He says that his deputy battalion commander said that there was an order to all patrol stations that there are no patrols until 9 in the morning. And they were very surprised by this order, but they are "simple soldiers" and therefore are not asking questions.

And hour after that they heard the alarms. But not only alarms. They were only 250 meter from the fence. And prior to the alarms during the period of 15 minutes about 1700 rickets were launched. According to Shetrit the launch of the rockets was about a kilometer from their base, and they actually felt the launch.

There was chaos and they didn't understand what was happening, and Shetrit also says that this kind of event was totally unexpected. Then there was fighting, and he shared details how he got injured, how he fought and survived, and then taken to the hospital.
 
"Lebanon's Hezbollah has launched a series of drone and rocket attacks into northern Israel. This comes after a top Hezbollah commander was killed in an Israeli strike last week. Hezbollah has warned that its full retaliation is yet to come, highlighting escalating tensions in the region. Additionally, Hezbollah said it launched a swarm of attack drones at two military sites near Acre in northern Israel, and also attacked an Israeli military vehicle in another location. The Israeli military said a number of hostile drones were identified crossing from Lebanon and one was intercepted. It said several civilians were injured to the south of the coastal city of Nahariya. "

 
The US is sending message to Israel to not dare to kill new Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar.
[...]
“Further attacks only raise the risk of dangerous outcomes that no one can predict and no one can fully control,” he warned, adding that the US will “press everyone involved, including Israel, to avoid anything that could actually escalate the conflict.”
[...]
The appointment of arch-terrorist Yahya Sinwar as the new leader of Hamas, replacing Ismail Haniyeh, is yet another compelling reason to swiftly eliminate him and wipe this vile organization off the face of the earth,” Katz wrote on X (formerly Twitter) on Tuesday.

Israel expels NATO state’s diplomats​

Oslo and Brussels have condemned the “extreme action” of Benjamin Netanyahu’s government amid the war in Gaza

Just to carry on with the headline, so what to make of it coming from part of NATO, with part of the EU (Israel expelled 8 diplomates)?

Oct 2023
(L) Does this have anything to do with a previous prediction you made that Israel would ultimately be destroyed or bring on its own destruction?

A: Close!

Q: (L) Are other countries going to get involved?

A: Yes

There are a great many twists and turns taking place, hang on.

April 2016
Q: (Galatea) Is it gonna get better soon, or is it just going to get worse?

A: You must pass through the "Valley of the Shadow."

Q: (Pierre) That sounds like an exciting place. [laughter]

(L) I guess if you pass through the Valley of the Shadow, you eventually come out into the sunshine.

(Galatea) Or there's a cliff...

A: Yes.

Q: (L) They were answering me, not you! [laughter]

A: No cliff except for those who don't enter the valley.

Q: (Joe) The Valley of the Shadow is like a bypass for the cliff.

(L) So it's like the difference between the high road and the low road?

A: Yes
Israel expels NATO state’s diplomats

The Israeli government has expelled eight Norwegian diplomats, who served as Oslo’s interface with the Palestinian Authority (PA) in the West Bank, in a move condemned by European officials.
The order to deny diplomatic status to the Norwegians was issued by Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz on Thursday. He cited Oslo’s recent recognition of Palestinian statehood and its support for a complaint against senior Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, in the International Criminal Court (ICC).
Through its policies “Norway chose to reward… murderers and rapists” instead of helping Israel fight “Palestinian terrorism” and “the Iranian axis of evil”, the minister stated, adding: “Norway has pursued a one-sided policy on the Palestinian issue and will therefore be excluded from any involvement in it.”
The Nordic nation formally recognized Palestine as a state in late May in a move coordinated with Ireland and Spain. Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store said the decision was “in support of moderate forces that are on a retreating front in a protracted and cruel conflict.”

Israeli minister sparks outrage by suggesting Gazans could be left to starve

The ICC case that Katz referred to relates to alleged war crimes committed by Israeli officials as well as leaders of the Palestinian group Hamas in the context of the militants’ raid on southern Israel last October, and Israel’s military response to it.
In May, ICC prosecutor Karim Khan issued arrest warrants against three Palestinians and two Israelis, the latter being Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yoav Gallant. The Norwegian government has said that since Oslo recognizes the court’s jurisdiction it would have to take the Israeli ministers into custody if they were to travel to the country.
The Norwegian diplomats were based in Tel Aviv and liaison with the PA, a body that is at odds with Hamas, which has controlled Gaza since 2007. Foreign Minister Espen Barth Eide has described the targeting of his staff as “an extreme action that first and foremost affects our ability to help the Palestinian population.”
“Today’s decision will have consequences for our relationship with the Netanyahu government,”
he warned. Obstructing diplomats in their work is serious.

The European Commission has expressed solidarity with Norway, which is not an EU member. In a statement on Thursday, Josep Borrell, the EU’s foreign policy chief, strongly condemned the Israeli decision and stressed that he did not consider the row to be a bilateral matter between the Jewish state and Oslo.
 
The slaughter continues.

Proxy: Dozens killed in Israeli airstrike on school

Emphasis mine.

Dozens killed in Israeli airstrike on school​

West Jerusalem claims that the facility was being used by Hamas as a military headquarters

Dozens of people have been killed and many more injured in an Israeli airstrike on a school-turned-shelter in Gaza City, the Palestinian authorities have said.

The attack on the Tabeen school in the central part of the city took place on Saturday morning and was confirmed by both officials in Gaza and the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).

There are conflicting reports so far about the number of casualties. Al Jazeera said, citing Gaza’s government media office, that more than 100 people have been killed and dozens more injured in the bombing. Not all of the bodies have been recovered so far, it added.

AP provided information from the Gaza Health Ministry’s ambulance and emergency service, which put the death toll at 60, with 47 others wounded. The outlet described the incident as “one of the deadliest strikes” in the ten months of the conflict between Israel and the Palestinian armed group Hamas.

Gaza’s government media office said in a statement that the number of casualties was so high because IDF warplanes “bombed the displaced people [at the school] while they were performing the dawn prayer.”


“We hold the Israeli occupation and the American administration fully responsible for this massacre,”
the statement read. The strike “comes within the framework of the crime of genocide and ethnic cleansing against our Palestinian people,” it added.

Palestinian journalists said the facility was hit by at least three bombs. Some people were reportedly trapped in the building, which caught fire after the attack. Emergency workers are unable to extinguish the blaze and rescue them, as Israel cut off the water supply to the area, according to their reports.

The Israeli military claimed on X (formerly Twitter) that it targeted the school because it had been used as a headquarters by Hamas, from which the group “planned and promoted terrorist operations against the IDF forces and the citizens of the State of Israel.”

“Hamas systematically violates international law and operates from civilian shelters, using the population as a human shield,”
the IDF said.

According to UN data, 477 out of 564 schools in Gaza, almost all of which were turned into shelters for refugees during the conflict, have been directly hit or damaged as of July 6.

Israel began its military operation in Gaza in response to a cross-border incursion by Hamas last October, in which around 1,200 people were killed and 250 were taken hostage. More than 39,600 people have been killed so far and over 91,700 others have been wounded in Israel’s airstrikes and ground offensive in the Palestinian enclave, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry.
 
What I noticed in the last couple of weeks the western news media did occasionally report on Gaza, but the main focus was the Olympics, Trumps assassination attempt, Kamala 🤮, and a lot of other stuff. And even then they might say that a hundred are killed in a school, but they don't ever report the full horror of the situation. If you just take a short look at 🇵🇸 Eye on Palestine (telegram channel), you know this barbaric slaying and killing and maiming has been happening every day, day after day, without pause, since octover 7th. God it's almost a year already.
