Daily Chronicles – Sticky – Previous

We’ve got a genocidal empire to bring down and a multipolar world to build in an atmosphere of schizophrenia, ignorance, unawareness, confusion, greed, anger, jealousy, arrogance, NATO and war.” Currently we stare into an abyss.

Daily Chronicles features those issues small or large, that have the potential to change our world.

Our work is focused on the anti-human systems that have to go, to be replaced by more straightforward and honest endeavors aimed at growing food worth eating, doing honest trade, healing people, traveling, building places worth living in, creating cool technology, going to space and learning useful things – right across the world.

I appreciate from the bottom of my heart the donations that keep flowing in! Blessings to all! Kindly keep donating to keep us up and running. We don’t have sponsors at all but depend on our readers for support. There are only a handful of sites of this nature, completely independent, left. We are BRICSies, we are NOT warmongers and are committed to a path of zero imperialism and maximum multipolarity, both privately and in terms of our groups and countries.

The Featured Image is only GAZA! It is not the West Bank, Occupied Golan, Syria, Lebanon where Israel regularly bombs.


September 20

I’ve stated on several occasions that the word Hamas is used to give a voice and a face to the US and Israeli enemy.  We have seen occupier Israel move and kill with the same methods that they used in Gaza, in the West Bank.  Hamas is not present as an organization in the West Bank.  The usage of the word Hamas from the west has changed.  Today, they use Hezbollah in the place of Hamas.  The word Hamas must be reaching the end of its sound of terror.  The rhetoric is exactly the same, only now it is Hezbollah.   Yes, I’m listening to the UN security council meeting.  The West .. Israel has the right to protect itself; Hezbollah receives weapons from Iran; they, the US, are doing their best toward a diplomatic solution.  The UK follows this rhetoric, and a few other Western countries.  In reality, the envoys are shocked and feel equally at risk as the rest of the world, who suddenly feel at risk from their electronic devices.  They know that this technology can come their way as well.  There are reports that China is drowning in orders with a stipulation that the device must be fully manufactured in China.   I guess a little personal threat has changed the issue for many.  Countries are shocked.  I have never heard such strong words from China – they are condemning and calling flagrant attcks and insisting on a ‘who dun it’ from independent investigators immediately!  China does not accuse as a principle.  Today, they said they know exactly who it is, despite the guilty not taking responsibility for their actions.  I’ll post that once it is available.   The sane representatives and envoys state quite clearly that Israel has not taken responsibility for the pager bombs, but they, and everyone else, know who it is.  Nebenzia from Russia told the envoy from Lebanon exactly which procedure to follow to raise their case and told him that they would be waiting to help them.  (There is some new principle that Russia has been working on).

Iran laid down another retribution:  “The Iranian delegate to the Security Council: The attack on our ambassador in Lebanon is a violation of international laws, and Iran reserves the right to respond to this attack.”  “We exercise maximum self-restraint and warn against the foolish behavior of the Zionist entity.”

Yesterday or the day before when the General Assembly passed a resolution that Israel must be out of the Palestinian territories within a year, one of the delegates challenged the Israeli envoy (this envoy is a rare obnoxious sort) because he said the General Assembly is a circus .. so, I don’t remember the delegate but the clip is out there in the wild .. that said the Israeli must be a clown then with his false representation and clownish defense.

Today the rare obnoxious sort is plugging a war against Iran.  It is all someone else’s fault.  What he forgets talking about the Israeli ‘displaced’, is that they are mostly illegal settlements.

We’re going to see the equivalent of shoes banging on the podium.  Al-Mayadeen correspondent: The Israeli delegate left the Security Council session and threatened war, which is prohibited in the corridors of the United Nations according to the organization’s charter.

Hezbollah has confirmed the martyrdom of Commander Ibrahim Aqeel in Israel’s bombing of a residential civilian building.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Don’t get emotional. The Axis of Resistance knows exactly what it’s doing. The Israeli regime is desperate and struggles to take the initiative. Tel Aviv will be severely punished, but the Resistance will determine when and how the conflict escalates.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

NOW: Hezbollah swiftly retaliated against Israel’s deadly assault in central Beirut. They launched a barrage of over 90 rockets into the northern stretches of Israeli-occupied land, targeting military bases. This marks the second wave of rocket fire from Hezbollah today and follows an earlier salvo of 140 just hours before.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Zionist Israel just bombed a building in Beirut’s southern Subrub.

From Marwa Osman: I am safe but the strike in Beirut suburbs was hard..my building shook like it was falling apart.

Let me take my breath and I will report updates.

So far today it looks like Israel is unleashing a full-scale war on Lebanon.  We will know soon how far this military campaign will go.

Update: It was a residential civilian building. The numbers of injured and dead are not reliable as yet. Israeli media reports that they were after a specific Hezbollah leader. Killing civilians in a war is war crimes, not that anyone is concerned about this any longer. We are now in a kinetic war against the west. The Israeli atrocities are the same as the Ukraine atrocities. I was reading Maria Zakharova earlier and she reports that Russians are being kept in brutal concentration camps in the border areas of Russia that Ukraine still controls.

Be very sure, as the Ukrainians have demonstrated, as the zionist occupier demonstrates, the target is now you and me. We find the same in Africa and the same in Latin America.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

The resistance is giving account of itself. Over the past hour, #Hezbollah has launched more than 130 missiles towards Zionist Israeli illegal colonial settlements.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Oh boy! Trump …

The October 7 attack is the worst attack on the Jewish people since the Holocaust and would not have happened if I were president
Jewish citizens in America have had to endure the worst wave of anti-Semitism in many generations
American Jews are being harassed, attacked, and terrorized by anti-Semites and Hamas sympathizers
Harris has done nothing to combat anti-Semitism, and universities have become dangerous places for Jewish students
The ugly tide of Hamas’s anti-Semitism, intolerance and hatred will be repelled and crushed when I assume the presidency of America.
When I am elected president, I will ban the resettlement of refugees coming from areas infested with terrorism, such as the Gaza Strip
The upcoming US presidential elections are the most important elections in the history of America and Israel

Planning to kill some more women, children, and babies? This is exactly what Netanyahu is holding out for, the US election and he is betting on a Trump win. Just think of how many babies they can kill together.

George Carlin: “Smug, greedy, well-fed white people have invented a language to conceal their sins. Israeli murderers are called commandos. Arab commandos are called terrorists.”

🔹🔹🔹🔹

From the Chinese media that I check, the exploding pagers as well as the overall situation in West Asia is headlined in all of them. It is all mainly informational and accurate. I have not seen the Chinese media using their front pages to report on something outside of China unless it is major moves.

About 40 Israeli airstrikes wnet into Southern Lebanon today.

From an Al-Mayadeen correspondent: The Home Front (Israel) issued instructions to residents of the settlements of the Upper Galilee and the occupied northern Golan to remain near shelters. The hammer of an “information blackout” has gone down in the northern settlements. No one is allowed to enter or photograph.
The information blackout must remind us that the occupation regime lies. I’ve been watching the reporting right through the day and this is skewed: The Israeli army: We carried out raids in southern Lebanon, which included attacking about 100 platforms and military infrastructure that included 1,000 nozzles. In cooperation with the Intelligence Division and the Northern Region, we targeted hundreds of launching nozzles in southern #Lebanon.

Many of these were not active any longer and they have not hit anything material or targets of value. Do you really think Hezbollah will place their launching pads exactly where the occupiers can hit them?

Hezbollah has in turn carried out 17 operations against Israeli sites since this morning but the war continues. These are only the big operations.

From the Head of Metula settlement on the latest rocket barrage from Lebanon: Massive destruction, fires, and direct damage to buildings. I haven’t seen anything like this since the beginning of the war. There is a complete power outage and no communication. Hezbolla is rocketing this area.

I do not know whether Israel has started their war against Lebanon. The next few days will tell. With Hezbollah’s attack on Metula, partially abandoned and the most northern point in Israel, it is clear that the settlements are going to be under fire.

Nasrallah in his speech: “Can you return the displaced to the north? We accept this challenge, and you will not be able to return them. Do whatever you want.

The only way to return the displaced to the north is to stop the aggression on the Gaza Strip and the West Bank

What you are doing will increase the displacement of the displaced from the north and will remove the opportunity for their return.”

Israeli media platform: Dozens of settlements and more than 70,000 Israelis in the north in fortified rooms awaiting Hezbollah fire (not sure if they’re playing victim here but they are working very hard to get attention off Gaza and the West Bank).

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Lebanon Mission to the United Nations: The Lebanese authorities concluded that communications devices were detonated via electronic messages. Normal communication signals.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

This is rolling on the floor laughing!

🔹🔹🔹🔹

The US has gone zombie beserker!   We cannot allow these people close to decent folks any longer.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Where are those that say the west ran backwards because of Putin’s warning on long-range weapons? I said, no way. If the cat comes in, the mice run away, until the cat goes away.

The Großdeutscher Reichstag European Parliament has adopted a resolution calling on EU countries to immediately lift all restrictions on Kiev’s strikes on Russian territory

425 MPs voted in favor, 131 against and another 63 abstained. It is one war, it is one west, there are many proxies.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

The IOF declares the start of a military operation on southern Lebanon, with squadrons of IOF F-35 warplanes heading north to Lebanon now. A number of airstrikes have been recorded in southern Lebanon at this time.

(Of course the US did not know about this in advance, for sure, I promise you they did not, the innocent frolicking lambs!)

So far it looks like only airstrikes.  (Shock ‘n Awe tactics).

Unrelated but notable on this very same day:  Putin visited a drone manufacturing plant and announced: “Russia is producing 4000 drones per day.”   1.4 million drones per year!  I wonder what they are going to do with all of those drones?  Mmmmm

Israel media:  The Third Lebanon War has started.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Time to take a quick look at Russia:

Russian forces have conducted a strike on Ukraine’s key military communications facility, as well as a number of other high-priority targets, the Defense Ministry in Moscow has said.

The ministry said that Russian warplanes, drones, missiles and artillery had successfully “hit the main center of special radio communications of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Armed Forces of Ukraine,” plus critical airfield infrastructure facilities.

▪️ Russia’s Battlegroup Tsentr repelled nine counterattacks, with Ukrainian forces losing over 510 militants.

▪️ Russia’s Battlegroup Zapad formations have strengthened their positions along the front line. The enemy lost as many as 420 soldiers.

▪️ Russian Battlegroup Sever hit three enemy formations, including a foreign legion, Ukrainians lost over 195 servicemen.

▪️ Russia’s Battlegroup Vostok formations have strengthened their positions along the front line and defeated the manpower and equipment of two Ukrainian brigades.

▪️ Ukrainian losses reached a total of 95 troops in Battlegroup Vostok’s area of responsibility.

▪️ Russian Battlegroup Dnepr struck the reserves of two Ukrainian brigades in the Zaporozhye region.

▪️ Enemy losses in Russia’s Battlegroup Yug combat zone came to 690 troops.

▪️ Russian Battlegroup Yug struck the reserves of seven Ukrainian brigades in its combat zone.

▪️ Russian air defenses shot down 41 Ukrainian drones over the past 24-hour period.

September 18

There is something about the current moment, something panicky … I went to check my X lists (I have lists set up in there for various areas and various topics in order to keep it tight and not to get lost in the X swamps). The only topic is the pager bombs and the entity did not help itself. People are completely horrified and the message is dropping: “If they can do it to them, then they can do it to us.” Even in the hard gun rights world some are saying their guns are worthless now – best they can do with them, is to put a bullet through their communications devices.
A question that struck me: “How do we know that Tesla products are safe from Israeli interference given that @elonmusk is a Zionist shill?”
Another one: “The pager attack makes a mockery of airport security. Commercial flights routinely carry hundreds of weaponizanble devices. For the moment the capacity to destroy a flight is presumably limited to state level actors—which is in no way acceptable or safe—but how far out can we be from the private capacity to wipe inconvenient people off the map at will?”

Slogging through a very big data swamp I became convinced that the UN General Assembly resolution was helped by Israel’s pager bombs on civilians. They did not do themselves any favors and those that were hesitant on knowing what the Israeli’s are, became convinced through these actions. It is as if the knowledge that this can be done, shocked people silly!

This is going to burst out in social anger and I do not know which way the anger will go. I really have not experienced such a human wave of knowledge of what some did not want to know. The size of the social resistance worldwide increased today.

Bibi Doubling Down on Geopolitical Suicide

The Israeli war cabinet has given Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu full authorization to take “offensive and defensive” action against Hezbollah, even if it leads to total war.  Netanyahu is hell bent on realizing a one state solution. It just may not be the sort of one-state he dreamed of.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Now it is real:  Vladimir Putin accepted the proposal of the Russian Foreign Ministry to sign a comprehensive strategic partnership agreement with Iran.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

The United Nations General Assembly adopts a resolution calling for an end to the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories within a year.  (Sweet, but I do not see any cease-fire.. yet?)  This resolution was largely based on the ICJ’s advisory opinion and UNSC resolutions.  According to the ICJ’s advisory opinion, the occupier is generally completely in an illegal position – their occupation is illegal, unlawful and no-one, no country, no group, may assist them.  It will make a big difference as the countries that aligned themselves with the ICJ, cannot  for example now supply weapons to the occupying state and there is a raft of legal requirements that will nickel and dime the occupier to stupefaction.    Israel is livid and says that the UNGA is anti-Israel and the invectives are flying.

Comment from Occupied Palestine: Hamas:

We welcome the adoption by the United Nations General Assembly of a resolution demanding that the occupation end its illegal presence in the occupied Palestinian territories.  This vote is an expression of the true international will in support of our people and their legitimate rights, foremost of which is their right to self-determination and the establishment of their independent state with Jerusalem as its capital.  The vote is an important victory for our people and a confirmation of the extent of the isolation experienced by the terrorist Zionist entity.  We express our appreciation to the countries that voted in favor of the resolution and call on them to take further measures and decisions that would isolate the fascist occupation entity.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

BREAKING: Explosions rip through Hezbollah funerals during a second wave of the ongoing Mossad cyber attacks that remotely detonate technical devices in Lebanon. Yesterday, at least 13 were killed and thousands more injured in similar attacks throughout the country.

The new explosions of communications devices across Lebanon appears to have primarily affected walkie talkies, which detonated and caused fires in homes, vehicles, and public areas.

The new detonations came as Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hashem Saffieddine was delivering a speech affirming that these attacks will have their own punishment, stating that the resistance is steadfast and capable of inflicting more defeats on the enemy.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Exploding pagers: Assessing the comments, most everyone considers this an act of warfare or hybrid warfare against civilians, and not terrorism. This language makes a major difference as well as the addition of war crime!. The aftermath contains a distinct and immediate threat to the occupier Israel. The resistance factions are saying they will be attacking illegal settlements, which up to now, has not happened. ”  The resistance has not attacked civilians.  A major Iraqi resistance group has vowed to open fire on all Israeli settlements throughout the occupied Palestinian territories in response to the occupying regime’s recent cyberattack on communication devices in Lebanon that left at least 9 people dead and nearly 3,000 others injured.”

While the US announces that they did not know (and all of us believe them! No), Israeli news outlet Walla revealed that Defense Minister Yoav Gallant spoke with U.S. Defense Secretary Austin just minutes before the cyber attack on Lebanon, informing him that Israel will carry out a difficult operation there.

The Lebanese authorities blamed Israel for organizing the large-scale attack and announced that they were preparing a corresponding complaint to the UN Security Council.

The Israeli occupier entity is suffering more casualties and despite a complete blackout on information, is forced to admit to some casualties, of course underreported. Four of its occupation forces died, and several others injured in the southern Gaza Strip city of Rafah, amid the nearly year-long genocidal war on the blockaded Palestinian territory.

There are calls for Israel’s expulsion from the UN: Iran’s UN Ambassador urged the international community to grant Palestine full membership status and reassess Israel’s membership in light of its persistent breaches of international law.

During a UN Security Council (UNSC) briefing on Monday about the war on Gaza, ambassador Geng Shuang of China accused the US of using the UN to block ceasefire efforts, as the war gets closer to the one-year mark.

Despite exploding pagers, the war continues.   Gaza’s civil defense agency reported that 35 Palestinians were killed across the enclave on Monday.  At the UN, Vassily Nebenzia, Russia’s envoy to the UN criticized the West for its silence regarding the IDF’s deadly actions, stating that Israel’s actions remain unpunished because of Washington’s backing.

While the exploding pager cyber attack happened, Jordan shot down drones that were on their way to Israel.  NATO plans an ’embassy-style’ office in Jordan.  NATO will open an office in the Jordanian capital Amman in the coming months to communicate with countries in the region, according to a special representative of the alliance.

Iran took action against technological or cyber threats years ago:  Several years ago, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei ordered all Iranian military communications to be domestically produced.  All pagers currently used by the IRGC / Artesh are Iranian-made. The Leader said we should not rely on ‘foreign information infrastructure.’

There is a twist in the tale of exploding pagers.   These are a product out of Taiwan, Gold Apollo pager company, and the company has acknowledged this.   Golden Apollo is adamant: the pagers were produced by European firm BAC, licensed to use their branding.  But of course, for the west, it cannot be Taiwan as the island is the darling of the west in their fight to destabilize China (or to own the first Island Chain).  So, quickly the story changed and now the pagers were manufactured in Budapest. Hungary is another nation on the Globalist hit list for daring to be non compliant and for Orban having the audacity to broker peace.  I believe this information may be poisoned.

There are calls from China to boycott all products out of Taiwan.

“Every Zionist accusation is a confession”

The question is, will occupying Israel be held accountable this time?

🔹🔹🔹🔹

Ukraine lost 14,600+ soldiers since start of #incursion into Russia’s Kursk region – Ministry of Defense Briefing.

Over the course of the day, Ukraine lost 400 servicemen and a Leopard tank in #Kursk (pre-war West Russia.)

The Russian Armed Forces thwarted 4 attempts by Ukraine to cross the state border near Medvezhye and #Veseloe, where Ukraine lost 70 men.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

The pundits generally claim that the US and UK has stepped back from its threat to give Ukraine long-range missiles to fire into Russia. I do not see it that way. It is an issue of timing. They may have stepped back now, but the idea is in full development. Whatever the timing, it is still a threat of all-out war against Russia. It is so that the west does not have many missiles:

“U.S. is ramping up production of key items, such as 155mm ammunition and Patriot missile systems, both to supply Ukraine and to refill U.S. inventories. But it is a yearslong process that won’t quickly meet the surging demand. Pentagon lacks the inventory it is willing to deliver more than two years into the war – presstitutes admit in article above.
Pentagon’s arms stockpiles shrivelling up and no amount of taxpayer cash they throw at it can make problem go away…”

September 17

Widely reported: Israeli Channel 14: Starting tonight, the security and military weight will shift from the Gaza Strip to the northern front. (It may be projection and only talk, but it does not look like it).

Take a look at the top of the previous Daily Chronicles for information. https://sovereignista.com/2024/09/11/daily-chronicles-sticky-30/

🔹🔹🔹🔹

There are many reports that the Ukraine as a state, and not only soldiers of fortune, is involved with and training terrorists in the well-known cesspit Idlib, as well as in Africa in the Sahel and possibly broader.

They are indeed our latest Isis, Isil, Al Queda, Daesh.  If one compares relative size of military, these should be added to the west.  The Zombie Forces.  Iraq’s Prime Minister Mohammed Shia’ al-Sudani says US military forces and so-called advisors stationed in various bases across the country are no longer needed (Yankee go home!) and need to leave Iraqi soil as the army and anti-terror resistance groups have jointly managed to defeat the Daesh Takfiri terrorist group.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

The Russian MOD reports on Kursk : Since the beginning of hostilities in Kursk region, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have lost more than 14,200 troops, 119 tanks, 45 infantry fighting vehicles, 91 armoured personnel carriers, 743 armoured fighting vehicles, 445 motor vehicles, 103 artillery guns, 28 MLRS launchers, including seven of HIMARS and six of MLRS made by the USA, eight SAM launchers, four transport-loading vehicles, 26 electronic warfare stations, seven counter-battery radars, two air defence radars, 14 engineering vehicles, including eight counterobstacle vehicles, and one UR-77 mine clearing vehicle.

By all accounts Russia is moving on a fast-forward track on the rest of the front line.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

“Hundreds” of people, mostly Hezbollah members, were injured when the pagers they use to communicate suddenly exploded, Reuters reported, citing a security source.

Among the wounded was apparently the Iranian ambassador in Beirut, the country’s Mehr news agency said, linking the incident to an Israeli cyberattack.

Some media reports suggest that around 30 people have been killed as the result of the explosions. Lebanon’s emergency service urged all medical staff to go to their posts as local hospitals are quickly reaching capacity.

Update: Uhmmmm … The Model of the pagers that exploded in Lebanon are Gold Apollo AR-924. Apollo Electronic Paging Company is a company based in Taiwan. (Little cherry bombs in those pagers? One signal and boom!).

The Lebanese Minister of Health: 8 dead and about 2750 injured so far. The hospitals in southern Lebanon have exceeded their capacity to receive the wounded.

🔹🔹🔹🔹

On this day 42 years ago, thousands of Palestinian refugees and Lebanese were brutally massacred by the Phalange, a pro-Israel Maronite militia. The attack occurred in the Palestinian refugee camps of Sabra and Shatila in Beirut, Lebanon, under the command of Israeli war criminal Ariel Sharon.  https://t.me/TheIslanderNews/21138

🔹🔹🔹🔹

The Israeli War Cabinet finished its meeting at the Kirya, the IDF Command Headquarters in Tel Aviv

The conclusion: A new objective was officially added to the war; ‘returning the citizens to their homes in the North’.

In other words, dealing with Hezbollah is now an official war goal.

Some in the Zionist entity tend to forget quickly, so he’s a reminder from Sayyed Nasrollah’s speech:

“Our proportional responses have always been effective, productive, and impactful. And they (i.e. the Zionists) know that if they escalate and face our appropriate response, those they are counting on—whether it’s 100,000 or 200,000—whom they promise to bring back to northern occupied Palestine, they will not return. They will not return to northern occupied Palestine. Is that clear?”

More foreign (yeah western!) military basis in Latin America

Ecuador’s President Daniel Noboa will seek changes to the constitution to allow foreign military bases to be established in the Andean country, he said on Monday via a post on X.

🗣”Today we will present a partial constitutional reform to the national assembly which substantially modifies article 5 of the constitution that prohibits the establishment of foreign military bases … for military purposes. In a transnational conflict we need a national and international response,” Noboa said in the message.

Ecuador’s constitution has prohibited the presence of foreign military bases or installations for military purposes on Ecuadorean territory since 2008.

Re: “NOW: Hezbollah swiftly retaliated against Israel’s deadly assault in central Beirut.” Not yet. Even the earlier barrage was reported to be revenge for southern Lebanese villages, not the pager mass terrorism.  Both these latest events remain unavenged.  They are deliberating. They had set the earlier rules: civilian for civilian,… Read more »

The non-targeted nature of the exploding beeper affair makes it a criminal act under Geneva 1949. An act, by definition, of state sponsored, or simply state, terrorism. Not that anybody is shocked these days by crime or terrorism.

Exploding beepers by itself is a focus of injuries and emotions, yes, but disrupting the comm by both explosions and the ensuing distrust, etc, would “traditionally” coordinate with an actual kinetic action. In the instance, we look to the zionazi attempting to invade/attack Lebanon, as has been of their drang… Read more »
