    Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley blamed the Biden administration for their dealmaking with Iran while other GOP contenders exchanged blows over America’s role on the world stage.

    Every NATO citizen who has joined the NATO armed forces has had a role in oppressing the Palestinians. Now they come out and blame Iran, ignoring the huge list of crimes committed by Israel, protected from the rule of law by the USA in the United Nations. The USA is dead in the water, they cannot even see themselves without their Jew-tinted glasses. There are no politicians that are not in the Jewish pocket, the whole place stinks and is getting worse as corruption spreads to every corner of every part of the USA, from Blackrock to Vanguard to Pfizer to the government and the military. What a bunch of sick leppers and they think that the Zionists Trump and/or RFK jr and/or DeSantis etc will cure them. Nah, leppers go to colonies and stay there until they die.

    Garrison has also been accused of antisemitism by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL).

    Umm, the Jewish progressives think he is not cool. Well this cartoon should go some way to getting him back in the ADL’s good books. Talking of getting into peoples’ good books, I wonder if Netanyahu knew about this “war” when he visited Musk? Was he preparing the way for the “war” or was it all just a hugely beneficial coincidence?

    “Israelis Question “Catastrophic” Intelligence Failure

    Er…I “question” it a lot too. Because it started on the day of the 50th anniversary of the last war? With Israel attacking the F out of a mosque they knew for a fact would require retaliation? Hamas knowing for a fact they had this all staged so didn’t wait for Israel to use the advantage, just attacked the F out of them back?

    And the real story here: somebody ACTUALLY declared war. Is that the first time in my whole life? Ever? Like 250 wars and this is the first declared one?

    That’s the other reason you knew they had it all pre-planned. They knew exactly that they WANTED to go to war. No debate. All pre-debate.

    Back to the article, ….sooooo… everybody knew we were having a war, NutsnYahoo, Hamas, Hezballah, the Knesset, the calendar, but the ONLY person in the WHOLE wide world that had Nooooooo idea was Mossad?

    Yup. Okay, go write Cait Johnstone and tell her to add it to her list of stupid things.

    Who else knew? The oil market: “Brent tumbled $14 in just six sessions” Good thing it didn’t jump from that $94 starting point but got hammered after six days of non-stop drops.

    Boy what a lucky break, because if Mossad HAD known, it wouldn’t have been an “unprovoked attack” they “Couldn’t have prevented” using all the same ordinary means of the last 50 years. And the Israelis wouldn’t be Po’ wittle wictims. Also: Mossad clearly needs more money! Lots and lots more money. The more we fail, the more money we need not to fail again!

    So. Side question: how does this fit in with them having a non-stop hot bombing war with Syria for the last 10 years? Were they a victim every time they took an F-16 and bombed civilian infrastructure there without anyone shooting back? Just curious. For history, you know.

    “Don’t. Don’t. Don’t Bomb your friends!”

    Whoops, still too complicated for politicians.

    “Iran Helped Hamas “Plot Israel Attack Over Several Weeks”, Gave Green Light, WSJ Reports

    You’re kidding, right? I was born on a Friday but not LAST Friday. It takes years to arm up for war. Look at Iraq II. That aside, Hamas ALWAYS stages for war, adding more each every day until they pull the trigger and shoot it. That means they “Always Plot” not over “weeks”, but every day since 2014. Where do they find enough morons to swallow this stuff?

    Sure, Iran had noooooo idea until they only “just” started plotting…um…about the same day the BRICS came through. Funny, huh?

    “According to the official, the “situation in Ukraine is getting worse,”

    That’s how we know Russia is not winning. And there will be no “resolution” with a Russian victory and occupation. You see, one side can just get worse and lose, and yet the other side doesn’t win. That’s how wars work.

    Toronto? You’re joking, right? Does that mean city life has been brought to such an unfathomable low that Toronto is top 10? Or is it like “Forbes 500” where you PAY Forbes to get on the list?

    Okay, Toronto is an all-car city, with an area of TWO THOUSAND square miles. It is in the north with an average winter temp of below 0c for 5 months and below 10c for 8 months. The average home price is $1.1 MILLION dollars (ca) with an average income of $71K BEFORE taxes, which are higher than the US and with ALSO a PST/GST of 13%. Their rents are HIGHER than NYC, at $2,400/mo. That’s a price/income of not 3, not 6, not 9, but FIFTEEN.

    Maybe Biden should go assassinate an Iranian general, a popular hero, like Trump the Zionist did for the Jews. Maybe that would put Biden back in Netanyahu’s good books. Meanwhile let’s all blame Iran for not being on the murdering USA’s side, let’s blame them for helping the Palestinians to fight back.

    If Iran is involved, Trump got them more involved with the murder of Qasem Soleimani; do you think the people of Iran will be supporting the killing of Jews? If you think Trump is the key to peace, think again, the blowback has been Iran providing Russia with drones and most probably Iran providing even more weapons to the Palestinians.

    But sure, it’s all Biden’s fault and Trump or RFKjr can fix it. Don’t make me laugh.

    The Insane Foreign Policy of America’s Satanic Neocons (Paul Craig Roberts)

    I’m glad to see other people using my favorite term ‘Satanic’ to describe the NeoConJobs like Nuland and Blinken.

    It’s not a metaphor as far as I’m concerned, they are literally Satanic and all that implies.

    Properly referring to something is the first step in honest analysis.

    Pussy-footing around with language and trying to bend a discussion with euphemisms is a sign of intellectual weakness and sloppy thinking.

    Hey, it’s what lawyers make their living doing.

    Lying by omission and commission with words for money.

    Satanism

    noun

    innate wickedness

    Larry Johnson has a very good take on the Hamas situation in Gaza

    Will the Battle of GAza Strip Be Israel’s Iwo Jima?

    Will the Battle of GAza Strip Be Israel’s Iwo Jima?

    It’s not gonna be ‘Pearl Harbor”, it’s more like Israel’s Iwo Jima.

    “The Gaza Strip is the home base of Hamas, but there is not a single specific location in Gaza that can be targeted and destroyed in order to bring an end to Hamas.

    I believe that Israel is dangerously over confident in its bellicose declarations that it will wipe Hamas off the face of the earth.

    Short of using nukes, Israel will have to send its ground forces into the strip and fight house to house battles.

    I think many of Israel’s supporters labor under the delusions that Gaza is a small area that can be easily dealt with. It is not.

    Let me put this into perspective. The Gaza Strip is 141 square miles in size….”

    Gaza will be dense urban combat, like Bakhmut in Ukronaziland, or Fallujah, or he Battle of Hue City during Vietnam, or the Nazi attack on the Jewish uprising in the Warsaw Ghetto. [Ironic]

    Extremely heavy casualties on both sides. Will not be won by air power.

    “If Hamas replicates the tactics Hezbollah employed against Israel in its 2006 incursion into Southern Lebanon then Israel’s chances of prevailing quickly are slim. Israel’s strategic position will be further complicated if Hezbollah decides to enter the fray in a significant way. Fighting a two front war over an extended period of time will sap Israeli resources. The problem this presents is that Israel’s traditional supplier of weapons and ammunition — the United States — is running on fumes having depleted its stores in order to support Ukraine.”

    Anyone else here shocked by the level of bloodlust and raw hate that fills the below-the-line comments on any news article related to the situation in Israel? It’s frightening how my fellow countrymen seem to have become savages filled with an unholy lust for death and destruction.

    It’s possible this is driven by the official media management teams driving the governments agenda but if not then something is truly sick in our society.

    Excerpt from FS’s post above:

    Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy made an impassioned plea announcing his opinion that Israel should receive US backing for Netanyahu’s war on Hamas. Kennedy tweeted,

    “This ignominious, unprovoked, and barbaric attack on Israel must be met with world condemnation and unequivocal support for the Jewish state’s right to self-defense. We must provide Israel with whatever it needs to defend itself — now. As President, I’ll make sure that our policy is unambiguous so that the enemies of Israel will think long and hard before attempting aggression of any kind.

    “I applaud the strong statements of support from the Biden White House for Israel in her hour of need. However, the scale of these attacks means it is likely that Israel will need to wage a sustained military campaign to protect its citizens. Statements of support are fine, but we must follow through with unwavering, resolute, and practical action. America must stand by our ally throughout this operation and beyond as it exercises its sovereign right to self-defense.”

    Scott Ritter quickly responded to Kennedy’s assertion tweeting,

    “I like RFKJr. I think he’s the best choice for POTUS. He’s positioned himself as the peace candidate. And this is the tweet I fear may have sunk his chances. Israel’s policies regarding Palestine are indefensible. Bobby should be promoting an equitable peace settlement. Not war.”

    There seems to be two different thoughts on the attack on Israel.

    One is that the attack was allowed to happen. Some think of Gaza as a concentration camp, or even an extermination camp. This attack may be used to justify more on the extermination side for years to come.

    The other view is that Hamas actually overcame all the Israeli defenses and the ‘win’ was genuine. If so then it seems Hamas is using intelligence more than bravado. In the past they have achieved minimal damage and suffered large retribution.

    The question is what happens next?

    Do Hamas have the resources to carry out further attacks? We are in an era where small cheap weapons can destroy large expensive ones. If not then Israel will spend some time bombing Hamas [and any nearby civilians].

    If Hamas have enough resources to carry out further attacks then it depends on how effective any damage on Israel is. They have missiles, but they are only as good as their accuracy. Iran seems to have developed accurate guidance systems which could make the missiles more destructive, IF Hamas have these on their missiles.

    The worst possibility is that it spreads to a larger war involving Iran, Lebanon and Syria. Israel is already claiming Iran was involved in this attack. Iran could block oil through the Straits of Hormuz, causing problems globally but mainly for the West.

    It could be another step on the way to a World War : NATO vs BRICS.

    The Human Spirit cannot be controlled, crushed or destroyed when it is truly Spiritual.

    They may have a Jewish owned printing press waiting to fill their bank accounts- but the West and Israel are Spiritually bankrupt. They do not stand a chance against the Spiritually motivated justified defenders of Human decency.

    Liberalism has broken the spine of the West, and the wagging tail of Israel. They are both in a panic with their only plan being more War and murder. Israel and Uncle Samstein have shown their true colors holding hands together in their playground of Hell.

    The irony of Ukrainian Nazis “holocausting’ Jews cannot be overlooked. The Warsaw Ghetto, where the Jews were destroyed by the Nazis as the Liberal Communists waited out the destruction. The Nazi Nation was ultimately destroyed, as was Liberal USSR Communism, as will the Jews be destroyed- again.

    The shocking unraveling watching the Jews turn Gaza into a concentration camp and now a death camp Warsaw Ghetto is astounding. Jews are the true Holocaust deniers as they now attempt to Holocaust Gaza- Jews have learned nothing from their own self created cycle of repeatedly making themselves a target based on their own actions.

    Eisenhower correctly warned against the MIC. Continuous War for profit will destroy America, Check mate. Throwing money and weapons at unjust wars- and the US Govt is now bankrupt and Spiritually Void. The short list- Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Ukraine and now Israel. The profit? Death and destruction.

    It is over for the US, just look at it. A dying thrasthing carcass of lies and hypocrisy.

    So the Democrats help vote out the speaker of the House and then the temporary RINO speaker immediately adjourns the House for a week, as a reward for the Democrats voting out the old speaker. As Dr. D said this stops the RINO’s ⁷Biden impeachment hearings.

    Paths Into World War https://drjohnsblog.substack.com/p/paths-into-world-war

    Historical analogies fall short when looking at the current warfare developing in Occupied-Palestine/Israel.
    “Pearl Harbor” is much cited, and one must consider the “new Pearl Harbor”, which was 9/11 in a similar light. Both were secretly arranged to allow American leadership to engage in forms of global warfare, at the initial cost of “somebody else” slaughtering thousands of unsuspecting Americans. I think this analogy is not quite right, because “America”, “the empire” is on its back foot now, losing hegemony, and doubling down on a new war as each prior new-war fails. Afghanistan gives way to Ukraine, and now to Israel/Palestine.

    The Sarajevo assassination of Archduke Ferdinand in 1914, which triggered WW-1 through interlocking treaties, might be a better fit, but that remains to be seen.
    At least empires were lost in WW-1, which seems ready to happen again at this point in history.

    I am also reminded of the Tet Offensive of 1968, when Vietcong irregular forces, living throughout South Vietnam, put on their black pajamas, loaded their AK-47s and took to every street at once. There was warfare in every South Vietnamese city and many fell to the Vietcong forces. Americans were shocked and saw that they had been lied to. They saw that the war was a popular war against Americans. They saw that it could not be won and that their sons, grandsons, and boys from their neighborhoods were being killed for nothing.
    The Vietcong, those boys and girls from Vietnamese neighborhoods, essentially all gave up their lives to prove this point to Americans. They were “victorious” in death.
    A lot of the Palestinian young adults I have seen in videos appear untrained and inexperienced, like they just got invited into the action that day.

    We can see that Israeli PM Netanyahu is rallying Jewish Israelis behind himself and the army, based upon the deaths and capture of so many Jewish Israeli citizens and soldiers. He might expect to further direct the Israeli military against Iran and Lebanon after he destroys Gaza, as he has said that he will do. This Israeli air force has demolished multiple high rise apartment buildings in Gaza City already.

    The US military is pledging support for the Israeli military actions, and sending the aircraft carrier task force Gerald Ford to the area, arriving in a few days. This force could attack Iran, Lebanon, Syria, and/or Gaza, and would serve as a trigger for escalation if attacked by any state actor.

    “I like RFKJr. I think he’s the best choice for POTUS. He’s positioned himself as the peace candidate. And this is the tweet I fear may have sunk his chances. Israel’s policies regarding Palestine are indefensible. Bobby should be promoting an equitable peace settlement. Not war.”

    RFK Jr. could go farther and declare “independence” from Israel, as well, though it could mean assassination for him. (Libertarian, or a new independent party?)
    ​ “I’m here to declare himself an independent candidate for president of the United States. That’s not all. I’m here to join you in making a new declaration of independence for our entire nation. We declare independence from the corporations that have hijacked our government. And we declare independence from Wall Street, from Big Tech, from Big Pharma, from Big Ag, from the military contractors and their lobbyists. And we declare independence from the cynical elites who betray our hope and who amplify our divisions. And finally, we declare independence from the two political parties,” Kennedy told a crowd of supporters at Philadelphia’s Independence Mall this afternoon.

    This is a Russian report from a Greek language site, detailing the (successful) first 48 hours of the Hamas breakout offensive against Israeli forces. Google Translate will work.
    Hamas is credited with capturing more territory in one day than Ukraine captured in 3 months of counter-offensive this summer (a dramatic assertion).

    ​ Russia’s ex-president blames US for Israel-Hamas fighting​ (Medvedev is​ guarded, but what does he ​mean to imply?)
    ​ Commenting on Saturday’s escalation between Israel and the Hamas militant group from Gaza, Medvedev wrote on his Telegram channel that these events were predictable. “This is what Washington and its allies should have dealt with,” he explained, adding that the Israel-Palestine conflict has lasted for decades, with the US being a “key player there.”
    ​ According to Medvedev, instead of this, “these morons got involved in our region and are actively helping neo-Nazis, pitting two close peoples against one another.”
    The former president brought his remarks to a conclusion with the thought that “apparently only a civil war on US territory” would help quell “America’s manic passion for igniting conflicts all around the planet.”

    Israel has bombarded southern Lebanon with artillery after mortar attacks by Hezbollah upon Israeli military positions within Lebanese territory, occupied by the Israeli military since 1967. This is taken to be a warning to Israel about escalating against Gaza to the point that Hezbollah will attack from the north in support.

    Christine sent this: Hezbollah is considered by far the world’s most powerful non state military force today, with assessments of its capabilities consistently pointing to a high degree of discipline and effective command and control significantly surpassing levels seen in Arab armies which Israel faced during the Cold War. Having clashed with Wahhabist terrorist organisations, with Israel, and with Turkish forces which frequently intervened to support jihadist groups in northern Syria, the militia has experience combating a much wider range of adversaries than the majority of state militaries. Israeli reports have commented particularly positively on the militia’s special forces and officer corps, which many sources consider to function in a league of its own among Arab forces in the region. Although proving capable of out of area operations, much like the Korean People’s Army Hezbollah’s main strength remains its ability to wage war on its own soil in Southern Lebanon where support from the local population and an extensive tunnel network make its positions among the best defended in the Arab world. They are also key to housing its arsenal of hundreds of thousands of rockets, drones, and ballistic and cruise missiles, which has grown increasingly sophisticated and more difficult to defend against for Israeli forces. While Israel has frequently mounted major military operations in Syria and against various militia groups in the Gaza Strip since 2006, the fact that it has refrained from doing so against Hezbollah since 2006 has borne a testament to the militia’s power and the deterrence value which it has gained through massive capacity for retaliation.

    Israel escalates, opening a second front against Hezbollah:
    Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said in a brief statement on Monday that its helicopters are currently striking in Lebanese territory. No further details were provided.
    Earlier, the IDF said a “number of armed suspects” who “infiltrated” into Israel from Lebanon were killed, and that IDF soldiers were searching the area.
    The United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) peacekeepers said in a statement on Monday that it has reported explosions near Al-Boustan in southwest Lebanon.
    There are also reports IDF heavy armor has been seen headed to northern border with Lebanon.

    There is a loud call among Israelis that this incursion by Hamas had to be allowed, if not facilitated by the Israeli army and intelligence forces (9/11 model).
    ​ A year ago there was a military operation in Gaza to prepare for such events, and ongoingly there are trainings for these kinds of scenarios. This raises serious questions about Israeli intelligence. What happened?
    ​ Two years ago there was a successful deployment of underground barriers in with sensors – to alert terrorists breaches. Israel has one of the most advanced and high tech armies, how come there was zero response to the border and fence breaching??
    ​ I served in the IDF 25 years ago, in the intelligence forces. There’s no way Israel did not know of what’s coming. A cat moving alongside the fence is triggering all forces. So this??
    ​ What happened to the “strongest army in the world”?
    ​ How come border crossings were wide open??
    Something is VERY WRONG HERE, something is very strange, this chain of events is very unusual and not typical for the Israeli defense system.

    No human-rights apply to barbarians, sub-human “untermenschen”, as history clearly illustrates.
    ​ Israel’s defense minister has as of Monday ordered a “complete siege” of Gaza which alarmingly includes cutting off all supply of electricity, fuel, and food, but even water for a densely packed population of 3+ million people in the strip.
    Yoav Gallant said, “I have given an order – Gaza will be under complete siege.” He added: “We are fighting barbarians and will respond accordingly.”
    ​ At the same time a statement from energy minister Israel Katz confirmed, “I instructed that the water supply from Israel to Gaza be cut off immediately.”
    ​ Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have reportedly retaken all the southern towns and settlements which were hit hardest by Saturday’s shock invasion of Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) militants from Gaza.

The IDF will immediately use all its power to destroy Hamas’ capabilities,” he added, warning that Israel is headed for a “difficult” war that is set to “take time.”

    ​Arkmedic “Plasmidgate” update:
    ​ What they are saying here is that, not only is the cationic liposome (think Lipid nanoparticle) a known transfection agent, but it works three times better if you have a protein around that contains a nuclear localisation signal.
    ​ This is exactly what happens in the presence of the spike protein from the “vaccine”.
    What a lucky combination!
    ​ A Very Relevant Update to #NIHGate
    ​ Over a year ago I posted the following article which related to the fact that a friend of mine had put in a Freedom of Information (FOI) request in relation to the scandal of the fact that the bully boys from the NIH – in particular Eric Freed – had used their political clout to get a perfectly good paper retracted. The paper that was the subject of this request was the one that I referred to earlier in this article (and many times before), which showed that the spike protein got into the nucleus and suppressed p53 therefore potentially providing a significant risk of cancer to any recipients of this gene therapy technology.

    EU/UK swap out Ukraine flag. Haaretz blames Bibi. Iran denies involvement. Neocons want war.

    Alex Christoforou of the Duran said he could hardly find any news about Ukronaziland today.

    Even Telegram channels that reported daily on Ukronaziland turned to cover Hamas attack.

    If it bleeds, it leads.

    The Major Media Whores have shifted attention span to the Hamas/Israel Squirrel because the Super Duper Ultra Cool Ukronazi ‘offensive’ is dead and the whole Project Ukronaziland is dead.

    The NeoConJobs and Pedo Jo-Joe need a diversion

    One last $100 billion grift-bride-extortion-scam to Ukronaziland and they’re outta Dodge.

    Israeli intelligence knew about Hamas attack coming but didn’t tell Bibi for internal political reasons and NeoConJob intrigues.

    Bibi was a very dangerous clever pol in his prime but is just an incompetent greedy thug now, hence the multiple court cases stacking up against him.

    They will lay blame on him for this. Career over.

    Pedo Jo-Joe had know idea either. Didn’t get the memo.
