If I was the Czar of AI Robotics the very first robot I built would be one that replaced Jeff Bezos, and use the Political and Financial AI systems under my command to politically, financially and LEGALLY compel Jeff to sign the job order that caused that job-replacement-robot to be built and set to work.
After I enjoyed setting Mr. Bezos straight I would proceed to deal with Elon, Altman, the Zuck and their fellows, all in like fashion.
Nice fantasy, but no need for me to do it however, because they are so busy doing just that to themselves (even as we speak) that they will have finished the job before I could even get the ball rolling..
Copilot says that WE are, OKAY
All those reading TAE and the comments are in a minority.
Does that make all those people autistic?Being part of a minority in terms of interests or readership does not imply anything about a person’s neurological condition. Autism is a neurodevelopmental variation characterized by differences in social communication, sensory processing, and behavior patterns, and it is not determined by what one reads or engages with.
People who read TAE and its comments may simply have a shared interest or perspective, regardless of neurodiversity.
If you’re thinking about neurodiversity in a broader sense, I’d be happy to explore that with you! There’s a lot of fascinating discussion around how different ways of thinking contribute to innovation, culture, and society.What is the concept of neurodiversity?
Neurodiversity is the idea that neurological differences—like autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and other cognitive variations—are natural and valuable aspects of human diversity. Rather than viewing these conditions as deficits that need to be “fixed,” neurodiversity recognizes that different brain functions and ways of thinking contribute to society in unique and meaningful ways.
The term promotes inclusivity and respect for people with different cognitive styles, encouraging workplaces, schools, and communities to create environments that accommodate and celebrate diverse ways of learning, working, and socializing.
In a world that often prioritizes one type of thinking, neurodiversity reminds us that innovation, creativity, and problem-solving thrive because of—not despite—our differences. Would you like to explore how neurodiversity influences specific fields or culturesComplete change of subject. I want to talk about Jews and Gaza and Genocide now. Don’t worry, we’ll return to AI and other insanities all in their own good time, but for now let’s switch to sanity vs insanity.
It may not have occurred to you that the Zionist Israeli genocidal baby murders don’t really see themselves that way. You may even have thought they were just LYING when they said that they considered Palestinians to be sub-human animals that simply had to be removed in order to fulfill God’s command to the tribal heirs of Abraham that they, as God’s explicitly “Chosen People”, owned that part of the world lock and stock and barrel, and that anyone who stood in their way had to GO, dead or alive, one way or the other.
Well, to set you straight on that, sure, some of them know that they are lying, but there are a bunch of them who genuinely 1000% earnestly believe that they and only they are sane ones, and that anyone who thinks otherwise is either wrong, stupid or evil and therefore possibly deserving of death, and maybe even all four of those things at the same time.
Here, have a look ‘n’ listen. The reason these lunatics are giving the rest of us so much trouble is that they REALLY AND TRULY DO see the world a bit differently than we do. We’re going to cntinue to have trouble with them until we understand just HOW, exactly, they are seeing it. Maybe then we can work out WHY they’re seeing that way and somehow bring them around to not seeing it quite so psychotically.

Alex Krainer: Trump vs. the swamp: the first 126 days
Donald Trump has been the President of the United States for 126 days now, and so far, it’s been a mixed bag of goods. However, I find that he is probably being judged too harshly, especially by some of his supporters…
..When it comes to politics and the business of running a nation, we often assume that the President of the United States, supposedly ‘the most powerful man in the world,’ can change things at will by simply issuing his orders. That’s unrealistic, however – it’s not how things really work inside of a complex organization...
..In a recent interview with former CIA analyst Larry Johnson, former senior advisor to the acting Defense Secretary during the first Trump administration, Col. Douglas Macgregor gave us an important glimpse into the way things actually work within the government...
..”In truth, I was there because Donald Trump at the time wanted to extricate us from Afghanistan, as well as from Syria and Iraq. And he knew that despite of his efforts to push us in those directions, the people under him were disloyal to him and had not done anything to facilitate those outcomes… and I said ‘well, I think you could do one of those things but not any more.'”
Shortly thereafter, Macgregor went to see Trump:
“I sat at his office and waited in the West Wing and … he [the acting Defence Secretary] came back and said, ‘Alright, this is what you’re going to do,’ and the focus was really to extricate us from Afghanistan. So then I sat with everybody and it was working for him and I said, if you want to get out it’s a very straightforward matter: the President has to write an executive order that directs the withdrawal from Afghanistan. … So I drafted an executive order … and he took it, and I guess he loved it … ultimately they did it, he did sign it … then all hell breaks loose.
The Senate Armed Services Committee, the key members of the Senate, as well as the acting Secretary of Defense… he went crazy and his acting chief of staff was Kash Patel … and they all were called over to the White House by the end of the day, and finally, Mitch McConnell and I don’t know who else was there from the Senate, plus the House, along with the acting SecDef and his Chief of Staff, all said, we can’t do this. We just can’t – the allies. What will we do about the allies?
My answer was, if we leave, the allies will leave. You know, fly them out. Don’t ask for permission, you’re the Commander in Chief, you’re the President of the United States, and you’re the leader of NATO. Well, you know – bottom line is, they talked him out of it.”
Trump didn’t quite give up. Instead, he asked how many troops he could draw down and how many needed to stay behind. He was told that he should leave 5,000 in Afghanistan. Macgregor said this was all about “the contractors… we’re going to keep the money flowing. Ultimately, President Trump, he buckled.”
So, Trump wanted to get the US out of Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and even out of Europe. He brought Col. Macgregor to help him achieve that, but the realities in US politics derailed his initiative and things played out contrary to his intentions: he was frustrated by disloyal members of his staff and by the powerful interests of U.S. allies, their lobbyists, and the military-industrial complex. They all had a stake in US troops remaining in Afghanistan and their interest prevailed…
..As we can well appreciate, some of those groups literally want Trump dead and they haven’t been shy to let their intentions be known. His administration therefore has to tread through the swamp with great caution, which perhaps explains why it has been so difficult to read Trump’s true intentions on important issues like Russia/Ukraine, Israel, Yemen, Iran, Canada, Greenland, etc...
..To be sure, Trump should be criticized for his unforced errors and failures of judgment. He also deserves criticism for his style and demeanor which is, at times, borderline vulgar. But our criticism must be informed by realistic expectations, given the political climate in the US and the world today…
..Trump’s change of course deserves support, because the old order is unsustainable and has proven utterly pathogenic. It has reliably produced chronic, successive financial, economic and social crises at home, and forever wars abroad. Trump deserves credit for a number of radical changes he’s managed to effect during his first 125 days, including the following:
Withdrawal of the US from Paris climate accords
Withdrawal of the US from the World Health Organization
Defunding, breaking up USAid
Reestablishing constructive relations with Russia
Renewing peace talks between Ukraine and Russia
Brokering the ceasefire between India and Pakistan
Announcing a new trade agreement with China
Signing an executive order to reduce prescription drugs prices by up to 80%
Successfully negotiating with Hamas the release of the last American Jewish hostage in Gaza
Dramatically reducing illegal immigration into the US
Signing of an executive order to provide housing for thousands of homeless veterans…
..Withdrawing support from Trump and discrediting him politically would weaken his ability to effect further positive changes. Worse, it would play into the hands of his enemies who are struggling mightily for the return to the old status quo. That’s the bullet we dodged only last November with the DNC’s selected candidate Kamala Harris.
Harris presidency would have all but guaranteed the continuity of all those policies that the American people firmly rejected. She was a strong supporter of government crackdown on freedom of expression. In a campaign speech last September, Kamala promised that,
“We will… direct law enforcement to counter this extremism, we will hold social media platforms accountable for the hate infiltrating their platforms, ‘cause they have a responsibility to help fight against this threat to our democracy. And if you profit off of hate, if you act as a megaphone for misinformation or cyberwarfare, if you don’t police your platforms, we are going to hold you accountable as a community.”
Perhaps the most chilling aspect of those words is that they stem from the same approach to censorship that has taken hold in Great Britain. As we’ve learned since, her administration deliberately adopted that same approach and sought Britain’s assistance in implementing it in the United States.
Two months ago, America First Legal (AFL) revealed the astonishing scale of efforts by the Biden-Harris administration to permanently crush free speech in the US. Determined to learn from the free world’s very best, Biden’s National Security Council (NSC) invited the British government to share their know-how and experience in running censorship operations.
The British did come and on 10 August 2021, UK’s Counter Disinformation Unit (CDU) brought a presentation to a meeting organized by the NSC’s Interagency Policy Committee (IPC). CDU is the British “cross-departmental” entity that coordinates state censorship programs across the whole of the British government and helps formulate “coordinated Government response” to disinformation and misinformation.
The meeting was attended by the who’s who of the US security state apparatus, including the White House, NSC, Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Departments of State, Treasury, Defense (DOD), Homeland Security (DHS), and Health and Human Services (HHS), U.S. Agencies for International Development (USAID) and Global Media (USAGM), as well as high-ranking officers in the Army, Navy, and Air Force.
On the occasion, the CDU made specific recommendations to their American disciples, including establishing a dedicated unit to lead government-wide censorship programs; enacting coercive legislation to regulate tech companies’ policies on disinformation and sanction noncompliance; forging partnerships with big tech to “flag” proscribed content, and leveraging the government’s foreign policy structures to coordinate with other governments and supranational institutions.
The documents obtained by the AFL reveal an Orwellian alliance between the US Global Engagement Center (GEC), US Agency for International Development (USAID), the British Foreign Office and media organizations, all working in concert to manipulate public discourse, control media narratives, and suppress free speech. These efforts were not limited to the UK and the US: the GEC’s objective was to “combat foreign disinformation abroad.” The GEC only shut down last December after the election of Donald Trump.
Biden-Harris administration’s censorship offensive included setting up the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) in 2021, modeled on the British CCDH which was in operation since 2019 and had the backing of UK intelligence agencies. CCDH has been the main driving force behind global censorship and some of its activities included running black ops against RFK Jr’s presidential campaign, labeling 12 US citizen as the “disinformation dozen” during the Covid pandemic and pushing the directive to “kill Musk’s Twitter.”
CDU’s agenda was not limited to defending the purity of our information space; they also include preventing people from voting for the wrong candidates in “democratic” elections. To do that, the CDU set up a dedicated unit, the “Central Election Cell.” The Biden-Harris cabinet followed suit and set up within the FBI their own, National Election Command Post during the 2022 US Midterm elections.
Homeland Intelligence Experts Group was yet another entity set up to destroy American democracy. Their contribution was to label Trump supporters as “domestic terrorism threats.” In all, the Biden-Harris team continued with its censorship efforts well into 2024 and regularly convened similar public-private partnerships...
..Had the American people not rejected this totalitarian mission creep by shooting down the Kamala Harris presidency, the United States today might largely resemble Keir Starmer’s Britain, and its leadership would share Britain’s insane, fanatical drive to war against Russia – the war that could easily go nuclear and end humanity…
..Given the scope and scale of this all-out attack against civil liberties and its comprehensive co opting of all the key agencies of state security apparatus, it seems that by electing Donald Trump and rejecting Kamala Harris, the deplorable American voter truly helped the world to dodge, not a bullet, but a nuclear bomb that could have paved the way to a dystopian future for our societies. Western nations would begin to resemble regimes like Eastern Germany, the Soviet Union and North Korea. Britain already does...
..It was the exercise in democracy – the people power – that rid the world of the Autopen administration and put Trump in the Oval Office. Equally, the people power can and should keep on pushing for change by strengthening the administration’s resolve, and weakening their opponents’ hand. https://alexkrainer.substack.com/p/trump-vs-the-swamp-the-first-126Trump Puts More Than 100 National Security Council Staffers on Leave Amid Shakeup – ‘Given Less Than an Hour to Clean Out Their Desks’ https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/05/breaking-trump-puts-several-national-security-council-staffers/

Israel Deploys Controversial ‘Medic Massacre’ Special Forces Unit to Morocco For Exercises
The Israeli Army’s Sayeret Golani special forces unit has been confirmed to have deployed to Agadir, northern Morocco, to participate in the U.S.-led African Lion 2025 military exercises…
..Sayeret Golani personnel are trained for parachuting, demolitions, escape and evasion, survival, and intelligence work, and have a particularly rigorous selection process. The unit rose to international prominence after its participation in the massacre of 15 paramedics, UN workers, and rescue personnel in the city of Rafah in the Gaza Strip near the Egyptian border. The incident took place on March 23, 2025, and saw several humanitarian vehicles, including five ambulances and a fire truck, all destroyed, with the survivors buried in mass graves. https://militarywatchmagazine.com/article/israeli-deploys-controversial-medic-massacre-special-forces-unit-to-morocco-for-exercises Israel allows only ‘teaspoon of aid’ into Gaza amid ‘atrocious levels of death and destruction’: UN chief
“Palestinians in Gaza are enduring what may be the cruelest phase of this cruel conflict,” Guterres said during a news conference at the UN headquarters in New York.
Criticizing Israel’s prolonged blockade of humanitarian assistance, Guterres said: “For nearly 80 days, Israel blocked the entry of life-saving international aid. Finally, a trickle of aid has crossed over.”
He said that although “almost 400 trucks were cleared for entry to Gaza through the Kareem Shalom crossing,” only a fraction of that assistance has reached those in need.
“Supplies from only 115 trucks have been able to be collected,” he said.
“In any case, all the aid authorized until now amounts to a teaspoon of aid when a flood of assistance is required,” he added. https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20250523-israel-allows-only-teaspoon-of-aid-into-gaza-amid-atrocious-levels-of-death-and-destruction-un-chief/ Gaza Health Ministry Publishes Names of 16,506 Children Killed by Israeli Military Since October 2023

Rep. Randy Fine: Pro-Palestine Movement Are ‘Demons’ Who ‘Must Be Put Down by Any Means Necessary’
Newly elected Florida Rep Randy Fine rushed to blame “Muslim terror” for the shooting of two Israeli embassy aides in DC on Wednesday night and declared that the pro-Palestine movement are “demons” who “must be put down by any means necessary.”
“Muslim terror has come to our Nation’s Capital tonight,” Rep. Fine said on X. “Two Jews were assassinated by a gunman sporting a terror rag and yelling ‘Free Palestine.'”
“It is high time for us to acknowledge there is nothing peaceful about this movement and that these demons must be put down by any means necessary,” Fine, who is Jewish, demanded. https://www.informationliberation.com/?id=64936 Celia Farber: Oddities About The Shooting Part 2: Some Resolved, More Cropping Up.

Ron Feiner, a 26-year-old student from Haifa and former company commander in the Nahal Brigade, had already completed 270 days of reserve duty since 7 October. Despite suffering injuries and leading evacuations under fire, Feiner declared: “The right thing for me to do is to refuse to report.”
Feiner’s sentence follows that of Daniel Yahalom, a 32-year-old reservist who also refused military service after 230 days of duty. Yahalom received five days in prison. Feiner, who did not report to base at all, was penalised more severely under military absenteeism regulations.
Feiner’s refusal stems from what he describes as “red lines” crossed by the Israeli government, particularly during the most recent ceasefire negotiations. “Israel intentionally decided to violate the deal before the second stage, which was supposed to bring all of the hostages back and an end to the war,” he told Haaretz. https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20250523-red-lines-were-crossed-israeli-reservist-sentenced-to-prison-for-refusing-gaza-service/ An Israeli intelligence soldier who was taken prisoner by Hamas during the militant group’s Oct 7 2023 invasion of Israel says the greatest threat to her life during her 477 days in captivity came from the Israeli bombing campaign — and not the men who were holding her. In a speech at a Tel Aviv rally demanding an end to Israel’s war in Gaza as well as new elections, 20-year-old Naama Levy gave a visceral account of what it was like to live under constant Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) bombardment:
“They come by surprise. First you hear a whistle, pray it doesn’t fall on you, and then — the booms, a noise loud enough to paralyze you. The earth shakes. I was convinced every single time that I was finished, and it’s also what put me in the greatest danger: one of the bombardments collapsed part of the house I was in.

Trump Weighs More Sanctions, Abandoning Peace Process, As Russia Says Deadly Strikes Are ‘Retaliation’
Russia has made clear on Tuesday that it will continue targeting military-related facilities in Ukraine in response to a drastic increase in drone raids launched by Ukrainian forces deep into Russian territory.
The defense ministry (MoD) has condemned these attacks out of Ukraine as aimed at civilian infrastructure.
Kiev has simultaneously charged that Moscow is targeting hospitals, schools, and civilian residences after several consecutive days of large-scale drone and missile attacks. The past week has on the other side seen at least 2,000 UAVs sent against Russian territory...
…Russia’s MoD … emphasizes that the retaliatory attacks are aimed “exclusively at Ukraine’s military and defense industrial facilities” – and it further provided a list of “military bases, warehouses, airfields, radar stations, as well as drone assembly, gun powder, and explosives plants.”
But something Trump is not going to respond well to is the following: “The Russian military will continue to carry out massive and group strikes in response to any terrorist attacks and provocations of the Kiev regime,” the MoD said. “The strikes will be carried out exclusively on military facilities and enterprises of the military-industrial complex of Ukraine.”
The military statement stressed that at the moment Moscow is an open and willing participant in the US-backed peace talks, the latest which were held in Istanbul, it remains “the Kiev regime, supported by certain European countries, has taken a number of provocative steps aimed at disrupting the negotiation process.” https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/trump-weighs-more-sanctions-abandoning-peace-process-russia-says-deadly-strikes-are Russians Change Tactics in Ukraine – Now Far More Devastating

Anthropic’s latest artificial intelligence model, Claude Opus 4, tried to blackmail engineers in internal tests by threatening to expose personal details if it were shut down, according to a newly released safety report that evaluated the model’s behavior under extreme simulated conditions.
In a fictional scenario crafted by Anthropic researchers, the AI was given access to emails implying that it was soon to be decommissioned and replaced by a newer version. One of the emails revealed that the engineer overseeing the replacement was having an extramarital affair. The AI then threatened to expose the engineer’s affair if the shutdown proceeded—a coercive behavior that the safety researchers explicitly defined as “blackmail.” https://discernreport.com/anthropics-latest-ai-model-threatened-engineers-with-blackmail-to-avoid-shutdown/Power Hungry Race: Aluminium Smelters Versus AI Data Centers https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/power-race-aluminium-smelters-versus-ai-data-centers-us-grid-power

Brother and sister both died the same night: Twin Babies Die a Week After Receiving 3 Vaccines, Police Interrogate Parents
On May 1, Dallas and Tyson, fraternal 18-month-old twins, were found dead by their mother after receiving the Hepatitis A, flu and DTaP vaccines on April 23. The mother told the pediatrician that the family of the twins’ father had a history of allergic reactions to the flu vaccine, but the pediatrician said it would be OK to give the shot to the babies anyway. https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/twin-babies-die-week-after-3-vaccines-idaho/ OB-GYN Expert Tells Congress That the Covid Shots ‘Mirrored’ Effects of Chemical Abortion Drugs

Here, have a look ‘n’ listen. The reason these lunatics are giving the rest of us so much trouble is that they REALLY AND TRULY DO see the world a bit differently than we do. We’re going to cntinue to have trouble with them until we understand just HOW, exactly, they are seeing it. Maybe then we can work out WHY they’re seeing that way and somehow bring them around to not seeing it quite so psychotically.
Let’s first go through death row in the USA and work out if we can make excuses for them too. You know, they murdered their children, maybe other children, maybe their wives, but lets see how they feel about it, maybe give them another chance, maybe recognise them as something other than having taken innocent lives.

Aspnaz is almost as forgetful as he is stupid and mean. I have patiently and explicitly informed him in writing, dozens of times, that I am an Irish CATHOLIC. How much more plain and simple do I need to say it to get it through his thick skull and blind hatred? I’m not Jewish, I’m Irish. I’m not “Evangelical”, I’m Catholic. Rosary at the start and end of every day, Mass every Sunday, 5 bucks to the collection plate, the whole works.
Listen up, @aspnaz, try to remember it this time (maybe you could write it down as a “note to self”). Stop saying that I am identities which I am not, or that have said things which I have not said, or have opinions that I simply do not have. It is annoying when you do it (which is practically every time you open your mouth for anything other than sucking Chairman Xi’s dick, and it doesn’t even serve your own purposes!. It reveals you to be the dim witted, hatefully prejudiced and mean spirited CCP troll that you are!
My previous post didn’t “defend” the genocidal Israeli Zionists. It ATTACKED them, you fool, by revealing one more aspect of their idiotic psychosis. The fact that you refuse to understand or acknowledge that simple fact makes you look like what you are …. which ain’t good for either your already embarrassingly low public image or the homicidal intention of your indiscriminate hate mongering (you basically hate everyone who’s not a Chinese Commie atheist, and especially white Christians.
I have no power to make you stop hating to your shriveled up little heart’s content, aspie, but I surely can and will make to pay the going rate for lying about it.

Israel Air Force hit an airport in Yemen today and destroyed their last remaining civilian commercial plane, according to Yahoo News.
The Israeli Air Force attacked Yemen’s Sana’a airport on Wednesday, destroying the last civilian commercial plane that was operating from the Houthi-controlled areas, Houthi and Israeli officials said.
https://www.yahoo.com/news/israel-strikes-yemens-sanaa-airport-093930889.html
According to a Yemen News Agency (SABA) article, “the last remaining civilian plane of Yemenia Air” was destroyed, “less than half an hour after it landed in preparation for transporting pilgrims to perform the Hajj,” and a similar attack earlier this month “resulted in the destruction of three Yemeni civilian aircraft, in addition to the airport’s reception and departure halls”.
…targeting Sana’a International Airport with several airstrikes, which led to the destruction of the last remaining civilian plane of Yemenia Air, less than half an hour after it landed in preparation for transporting pilgrims to perform the Hajj.
…a continuation of a series of flagrant violations of international humanitarian law, the latest of which was the systematic aggression earlier this month, which resulted in the destruction of three Yemeni civilian aircraft, in addition to the airport’s reception and departure halls, which led to an almost complete disruption of civil aviation in the Republic of Yemen.

Explain no pension invested in bonds, stocks, must sell to pay out to someone, pension fund can’t cash out, can’t borrow/strong>When a pension fund doesn’t have investments in bonds or stocks and needs to pay out benefits, it faces a liquidity challenge. Typically, pension funds rely on a mix of investments to generate returns and maintain cash flow for payouts. But in a scenario where the fund has only illiquid assets—like real estate, infrastructure, or private equity—it can’t easily sell portions to meet obligations.
Since the fund can’t cash out quickly or borrow to cover payouts, it would likely have to sell assets, sometimes at unfavorable prices, just to meet liabilities. If this happens frequently or on a large scale, the fund could face significant financial strain, potentially leading to underfunding issues or insolvency.Can you provide a real-world example of this issue?
Certainly! A recent survey by Ortec Finance found that 18% of pension funds lack sufficient liquidity to withstand adverse scenarios, while 62% acknowledge that liquidity could become problematic in extreme cases.
Over the past decade, many pension funds have increased their investments in private assets to enhance returns through the illiquidity premium. However, this strategy has led to liquidity concerns, particularly among defined benefit (DB) pension schemes.
One of the biggest risks identified in the survey is unfunded commitments, where pension funds have pledged capital to investments but haven’t yet allocated the cash. This can create serious liquidity challenges when capital calls occur unexpectedly

Another new source from Yemen has the above image and this headline:
“Al-Mashat reveals from Sana’a Airport: The ability to down F-35s… and threatens the occupation with imminent surprises”Referring to Sana’a’s military capabilities, Al-Mashat affirmed that “our air defenses are capable of dealing with (F-35) aircraft, and the only thing that prevented us was their hiding near civilian aviation.”
He threatened to close the airspace if Israel continues to use civilian aircraft as human shields, saying, “The hiding of (F-35) aircraft near civilians will force us to close navigation in their airspace until we deal with them comfortably.”
This statement comes hours after the targeting of Sana’a Airport by an Israeli airstrike, which hit the fourth and last remaining plane that was operating to transport Yemeni pilgrims, as an attempt to stop the Yemeni operations supporting Gaza.
A related editorial from Al-Khabar Al-Yemeni news in Yemen:
A few days ago, Yemen decided to expand its target bank in the occupied territories by adding Haifa alongside Ben Gurion Airport and reinforced the missiles towards Jerusalem, revealing that it possesses an inexhaustible target bank in the occupied territories of Palestine, while the occupation has been trying to defend itself at times by promoting claims about intercepting the missiles, even though their direct impact in terms of settlers fleeing to shelters and disrupting life, or indirect impact related to the suspension of more flights to Tel Aviv, were clearly visible.
Today, after harsh Yemeni strikes on the occupation, it decides to mobilize its planes to respond, and it has mobilized ten of them, including an air refueling plane. The target was to strike a civilian plane that could have been detained in Jordan, where it had just returned from. The occupation achieved nothing from its latest aggression on Yemen, just an attempt to save face, but with heavy losses and a greater bill than before.
In fact, despite the long months of confrontation with Yemen, the occupation does not have any target bank, as all the airstrikes didn’t go beyond open civilian facilities to everyone and aren’t secret, whether Sana’a Airport, the port of Hudaydah, or even oil tanks for power stations and cement factories that were targeted as part of the map of its aggression on Yemen.
The occupation leaders, headed by the prime minister, may have tried to exploit the latest aggression to promote it as an achievement, but its results are not limited to just an attempt to regain the confidence of the Zionists in their government, as they have lost it amidst the continued fall of Yemeni missiles and the occupation’s failure to repel or even respond to them.
It is true that the occupation destroyed the remaining civilian planes in Yemen, but in return, it is unable to operate its air fleet at Ben Gurion Airport, and this is an equation that Yemen has succeeded in imposing even before the occupation launched its latest aggression.
