⭕ — Iran’s Fars News has published an image depicting a swarm of Iran’s Shahed-171 drones.The text on the image says:
“And the Lord (God; Yahyweh) will bring a nation against you from afar, from the ends of the earth, like an eagle swooping down—a nation whose language you will not understand. They will come down upon you like eagles.”
– Torah, Deuteronomy, Chapter 28, Verse 49
[this is terrifying. Such drone swarms haunt NATO day and night in 404. And both Russia and Iran are among AI leaders, which provide more “real-time” maneuver and hunting and intra-swarm communication. War is becoming too dangerous to wage above ground… Consider the havoc and fear Hezbollah’s drones already wage; Iran is on another level altogether, in terms of finances, military-industry capability, etc. When the war is fully opened, not much of Zion will exist above ground, that’s for sure]

⭕ — 🛑| US & Israeli officials told Fox News:That Israeli warplanes took out multiple Iranian radar systems that are needed to guide those ballistic missiles that were fired at Israel in April and on Oct 1 when Iran fired 181 ballistic missiles at Israel.
As one senior official put it to me eliminating the missile sites is not enough. Removing the radar systems prevents Iran from firing those missiles in the future.
Israel told the White House and Pentagon in advance of the strikes. They were chosen to send a pin point message to Iran and to degrade Iran’s ability to fire ballistic missiles at Israel anytime soon.
— 📝 What a load of bullcrap!
These US & Israeli officials are fooling people, they really consider us like headless donkeys.
Ballistic missiles have internal guidance (e.g. fiber optic gyros) & are free of any external input. If the tombstone radar of the S-300 is destroyed, Iran will have problems guiding AIR DEFENSE missiles, not the ballistic missiles Iran fires against Israel (via Neutrino on X)
Whether their claim about harming Iran’s S-300 is true or not, by the grace of God they’ll witness a more stronger ‘True Promise’ real soon.

⭕ Annalena Baerbock’s Gaza Comments Fuel Accusations of German Complicity in Genocide.By Elijah J. Magnier
A petition led by the Palestine Academic Group (Pal-Ac) calls on Germany to end its complicity in the Gaza genocide and revoke Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock’s recent statement that disregards and encourages Israel’s violations of international laws in Gaza. Baerbock’s claim that civilians lose their protected status when “Hamas terrorists hide behind people” is viewed as an endorsement of civilian targeting and a dangerous precedent in the context of Gaza, where over two million Palestinians, including civilians, lack safe escape routes due to Israeli-imposed restrictions. The article highlighted fundamental international legal principles, like proportionality and distinction, that Israel, as an occupying force, is bound to uphold under IHL. It argues that Baerbock’s stance conflicts with these principles and Germany’s commitment to historical lessons against genocide to prevent atrocities and protect civilian life.
The petition has garnered international support from academics and professionals, with over 300 signatories from Germany, the USA, the UK, the EU, the Middle East, Latin America, Japan, Australia, South Africa, Canada and many other countries, underscoring a global concern about Germany’s stance. These signatories denounce Germany’s support for Israeli actions in Gaza, labelling them as genocidal and urging the government to retract Baerbock’s statement.
By backing the targeting of civilians, Germany risks further isolation from the International Criminal Court, the International Court of Justice, and the global Palestine solidarity movement, all of which are pressing for accountability and an end to the violence. The petition ultimately calls for Germany to assume a moral stance, retract Baerbock’s statement, and renew its commitment to humanitarian values.
A Precarious Precedent for Future Conflicts
Accepting that civilians lose protected status if near combatants could set a dangerous precedent with broad and troubling implications. Such a shift would not only affect civilians directly but also increase risks for European and Western troops, including German forces, deployed internationally. Here’s an exploration of these risks:
Reinterpreting civilian protection standards based on proximity would likely lead to higher civilian casualties, as military forces may operate with less regard for civilian safety, particularly in densely populated conflict zones.Civilian immunity is foundational to IHL. If some states adopt policies that relax protections based on combatant proximity, other nations may follow, undermining IHL norms globally. This would create a permissive environment for violence, weakening global compliance with IHL.
Reinterpreting civilian protection rules could make indiscriminate warfare routine, as states and armed groups invoke “military necessity” to justify operations that impact civilians, leading to intensified, unrestricted conflicts.
Western and German forces engaged in peacekeeping or advisory roles face more significant risks if adversaries adopt indiscriminate warfare tactics, viewing these forces as legitimate targets. This heightened hostility could place deployed personnel in constant danger.Erosion of civilian protections would likely prolong conflicts, causing immense suffering, displacement, and refugee crises that would further destabilise regions and strain international peacekeeping efforts.
Western forces, including German troops, adhere to strict rules of engagement that prioritise civilian protection. Eroding IHL standards may pressure these forces to adjust to more permissive norms, undermining their ethical commitment to humane warfare.
Any shift in military conduct that risks civilian harm could lead to domestic and international criticism, weaken political and social support for German missions, and place European governments in difficult ethical positions on the global stage.
The Protections of Civilians in Armed Conflict: A Legal Analysis
The assertion that civilians lose their non-combatant status if military forces operate nearby poses significant violations of international humanitarian law (IHL). International conventions, protocols, and judicial bodies have established a robust framework designed to protect civilians during armed conflicts, irrespective of the presence of combatants. This framework includes the Geneva Conventions and their Additional Protocols, the Hague Conventions, the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court (ICC), and various United Nations declarations. Baerbock undermined the specific laws that protect civilian status in conflict zones, the principles they uphold, and the consequences of undermining these protections.The Fourth Geneva Convention (1949)
The Fourth Geneva Convention (GC IV) and Additional Protocols I and II provide the foundational framework for protecting civilians in armed conflicts. Established after World War II, these conventions and protocols aim to prevent the atrocities observed in global conflicts by creating universally binding rules of engagement.
• Article 4 of GC IV defines civilians as those “who, at a given moment and in any manner whatsoever, find themselves… in the hands of a Party to the conflict or Occupying Power of which they are not nationals.”
• Articles 27–34 of GC IV require that civilians receive humane treatment and respect their person, honour, and family rights. Article 32 prohibits any “measures of intimidation or terrorism” against civilians, effectively ensuring that all measures to protect civilians apply equally, even if combatants are nearby.
• Article 51 of Additional Protocol I (1977) introduces the principle of distinction, which obligates combatants to always distinguish between civilians and combatants. Article 51.2 states that civilians “shall not be the object of attack” and that “acts or threats of violence the primary purpose of which is to spread terror among the civilian population are prohibited.”
The principle of proportionality, enshrined in Articles 51 and 57 of Protocol I, also requires that any attack weighs the anticipated military advantage against the potential for civilian harm, underscoring that civilians never lose their protected status.The Hague Regulations (1907)
The Hague Regulations 1907 were among the first international agreements to lay down laws of war and military conduct. Although some clauses have been updated in the Geneva Conventions, the regulations continue to be a relevant source of international customary law:
• Article 25 of the Hague Regulations prohibits targeting undefended civilian buildings and settlements, a principle that indirectly reinforces the immunity of civilians from intentional attack.
• Article 27 mandates that during sieges, “all necessary steps must be taken to spare… buildings dedicated to religion, art, science, or charitable purposes, historic monuments, hospitals, and places where the sick and wounded are collected, provided they are not being used at the time for military purposes.”
Although the Hague Regulations allow for military necessity, they establish the standard that civilians and civilian infrastructure should not be targeted intentionally or incidentally without preventive measures.Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court (1998)
The Rome Statute, the founding treaty of the International Criminal Court (ICC), codifies war crimes and crimes against humanity, including attacks on civilians, making it clear that civilian protection is not conditional:
• Article 8(2)(b)(i) of the Rome Statute criminalises “intentionally directing attacks against the civilian population as such or against individual civilians not taking direct part in hostilities.”
• Article 8(2)(b)(ii) prohibits “intentionally directing attacks against civilian objects, that is, objects which are not military objectives.”
Furthermore, the ICC considers acts of violence against civilians a war crime, regardless of the combatant status or presence of military personnel nearby. This reinforces that civilian status cannot be nullified by association.Principle of Distinction and the Protection of Civilian Status
The principle of distinction is a cornerstone of IHL, requiring that parties to a conflict always distinguish between combatants and civilians. This principle is reiterated in numerous treaties, including:
• Article 48 of Additional Protocol I to the Geneva Conventions states that the “Parties to the conflict shall at all times distinguish between the civilian population and combatants and between civilian objects and military objectives.”
This principle is further upheld by customary international law, as observed by the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), which considers the protection of civilians in armed conflict to be an established rule of customary international law applicable to all parties in armed conflicts.Collective Punishment and Civilian Immunity
The concept of collective punishment, prohibited under Article 33 of the Fourth Geneva Convention, reinforces the civilian protections in place during armed conflicts. Collective punishment refers to punishing a group of civilians for the actions of individuals or combatants within that group:
• Article 33 explicitly prohibits “collective penalties and likewise all measures of intimidation or terrorism… Reprisals against protected persons and their property are prohibited.”
This prohibition applies even if combatants are suspected of being among civilian populations, as civilians cannot lose their protected status due to the actions of individuals within their proximity.UN General Assembly Resolutions and International Humanitarian Law
The UN General Assembly has issued numerous resolutions underscoring civilian protection. Resolution 2444 (1968) reaffirms the requirement that warring parties distinguish between civilians and combatants, emphasising the need for restraint. Resolution 2675 (1970) further affirms that “civilian populations, or individual members thereof, should not be the object of reprisals, forcible transfers, or other acts of violence.”Such resolutions underline the international community’s view that civilian status is non-negotiable, reflecting the normative stance that civilians cannot forfeit their immunity under IHL.
The Customary Status of Civilian Protection
According to the International Court of Justice (ICJ) and the ICRC, the rules protecting civilians from direct attacks have achieved the status of customary international law, meaning they bind all states regardless of whether they have ratified specific conventions. The ICJ’s Nicaragua v. United States (1986) decision upheld the application of customary international humanitarian law to protect civilians, reinforcing that customary law norms regarding civilian protection apply universally.Eroding Civilian Protections: The Risks of Baerbock’s Precedent
Allowing civilian protections to be weakened near military or governmental targets could drastically increase collateral damage and civilian casualties. Such a precedent not only endangers civilians but could embolden terrorist groups and challenge the security frameworks of Germany and Europe.Relaxing protections based on proximity to targets—as Baerbock suggests—could make densely populated areas in urban centres, especially those near government buildings or military installations, more vulnerable. Terrorist groups might exploit this change, targeting these areas to maximise casualties and media impact. Major German cities with government buildings near commercial and residential areas would likely see increased risks.
Terrorist organisations might further weaponise this reinterpretation, strategically targeting civilian-dense zones to provoke high civilian casualties and complicate response efforts. Such tactics would likely increase the use of indiscriminate weaponry, raising the lethality of attacks and the likelihood of non-combatant casualties, potentially justified under Baerbock’s precedent. This reinterpretation of civilian protections could also undermine public trust, as people may feel that their safety is secondary to security priorities. Such sentiment would be influential in areas with heightened security installations, eroding public morale and the sense of safety in urban environments.
With civilian presence no longer a deterrent, terrorists might escalate operations in central areas, spreading anxiety across urban centres. Germany would be forced to heighten security measures visibly, potentially disrupting daily life, economic activities, and tourism, which relies heavily on public perceptions of safety.
Legal and Ethical Implications Under International Humanitarian Law (IHL)
Engaging with attackers in civilian-dense areas could place German forces in legally ambiguous situations. Response operations might increase civilian casualties, leading to both domestic and international legal challenges. In such scenarios, German authorities and military personnel could inadvertently contribute to civilian harm, exposing them to legal action under German and international law.Frequent scenarios of this kind may pressure German security forces to adapt their rules of engagement in urban settings, potentially reducing traditional civilian restraint measures. This shift could weaken Germany’s stance on prioritising civilian protection both at home and in international operations, affecting its moral authority on the global stage.
Relaxed civilian protections could embolden terrorist groups, who would likely target civilian-heavy areas near governmental or military sites to maximise psychological and physical impact. The increased civilian harm could amplify grievances and bolster terrorist recruitment and propaganda, intensifying long-term security threats for Germany and its allies.
Conclusion
The idea that civilians can lose their protected status due to the presence of combatants contravenes core principles of international humanitarian law, including the Geneva Conventions, Hague Regulations, the Rome Statute, and numerous UN resolutions. Upholding civilian protections is essential for preserving international law, safeguarding fundamental human rights, and ensuring stability in conflict zones. Undermining these laws opens the door to indiscriminate violence and weakens the global structures designed to protect civilians.Accepting a precedent that erodes civilian immunity based on proximity to combatants would set a dangerous standard with severe global consequences. This shift would likely increase civilian casualties, strain security resources, and heighten risks for European and Western forces, mainly German troops, who could face unprecedented operational challenges and safety threats. Such a shift would destabilise international norms, lead to humanitarian crises, and jeopardise global peacekeeping efforts. Therefore, maintaining strict civilian protections is essential to uphold humanitarian standards, prevent widespread instability, and preserve the ethical foundations of international operations.

Collapsing Empire: China and Russia Checkmate US Military, by @KitKlarenberg
⭕ ⚡️ Four days later, we have a better picture of the results of the Israeli strikes on Iran.My initial observations have been largely confirmed.
The IAF strikes seem to have produced minimal results, but it appears covert operatives within Iran achieved several drone hits
🔻 C1: I found the vol market moves leading up to the event peculiar. If you had knowledge of this strike and its limited scope/potential effect, the last thing you would have been doing was buying vol late last week and hard into Fridays close. So did the Israelis pull up short on a larger plan leaving some ‘insiders’ holding the bag or did they leak a larger plan and sell that vol to their enemies?
🔻 WS: Good question, Jimmy. And I long since gave up trying to explain volatility moves.I remain convinced the Israelis encountered something they did not expect, and it freaked them out, so they aborted Plan A (deep penetration airstrikes) and settled for a much less ambitious Plan B involving mostly drones launched from within Iran by covert operatives.
🔻 C1: The Vix curve would concur
🔻 MAKE LOVE AND NOT WAR: I believe that the Israeli and American air forces imagined that it would be easy to overcome the Iranian air defense. But something went terribly wrong. S-400?
🔻 WS: I have seen no credible indication that S-400s are in Iran. And if there are, I have seen no credible indication that they have been used.
🔻 MAKE LOVE AND NOT WAR: Tank you
🔻 Exodus Gaming: All of irans air defenses and early warning systems were taken out they are left in the dark and without any capability of defending against another or more massive strike it was a huge blow by Israel and a flex of their strength
[LOL. I used to go to RT comments for laughter therapy from fellow idiot savants. I may have a new outlet, but for the opposite reason – some Cro-Magnons engaging in risible psywar! And WHOSE New Exodus should he be Gaming??]
🔻 C4: Be Israel
Make Iran think I’m launching attack
Iran positions Anti-Air, Air defense
Israel cancels attack
Israel gathers Intel on where Iran positioned defenses
Israel launches a second attack with new Intel gathered from the canceled 1st attack
Pretty sure that’s the script
🔻 C5: Are air defense systems permanently static objects? This layman would love to know.
🔻 WS: No. Most Iranian AD systems are highly mobile.
🔻 C4: They are not permanently static but it’s hard to come up with +10 new locations each & every time the Israelis pussy foot around.
If the Israelis do this song & dance 3 or 4 times all the hiding spots will be discovered.
🔻 WS: This is silly talk.I don’t understand why geography is so hard for so many people.
🔻 C4: Israel has to go EAST to go inside the WESTERN part of IRAN, so we know the attack vector.
If we repeat this song & dance a few times you can gather Intel on how & where Iran positions AD.
I’m not team Israel I’m just trying to understand why their Pussy footing around.
🔻 WS: There are many more variables, not least of which is the Israeli capability (or lack thereof) to saturate Iranian defenses sufficiently to defeat them.Most importantly, the IAF must be able to effect a deep penetration into Iran. I have my doubts about that.
🔻 C6: According to Crooke, the attack was called off due to the discovery of an unknown air defense system. It is speculated that this system may have been a Russian air defense missile system capable of attacking stealth fighters like Israel’s S35.
🔻 WS: Yes, but Crooke was not the first one to talk about this. It entered the discussion early on, based on certain reports out of Israel. My sense is that there was substance to those reports.
⭕🔻 C1: Interesting is the direction in which the walls of the shed & the debris created by the impact spread out, showing the direction of the impact in the shed, namely from North to South, meaning that the cruise missiles arrived in Shahrud from the direction of the Caspian Sea. 1/6 |media|
🔻 WS: I am dubious that cruise missiles were used. I think it is more likely that drones (with relatively small warheads) were launched from within Iran by covert operatives.
🔻 C2: What ever used had a really small warhead that couldnt do serious damage by itself, think Iran had dummies to trick Israel. Intelligence about Israeli attack vector was gained with minimal damage taken.
⭕ ⚡️ Here’s what I have observed at this point in relation to the Israeli strikes against Iran:– The Israelis launched a lot of missiles — all from maximum stand-off distance.
– Iran put up a LOT of air defense missiles.
– There are no firm reports nor video evidence (so far) of big missile strikes on any significant Iranian targets.
– The Iranians say they intercepted most of the attacking missiles, but admit some got through.
– All the usual purveyors of #EmpirePropaganda are claiming Israel crushed Iranian air defenses and devastated their intended targets.
My impression is that, although they probably hit *something* meaningful with this strike, by and large it was a demonstration of just how limited Israeli long-range strike capability really is — and how formidable Iranian air defenses have become.
🔻 C1: Did they hit a decoy?
🔻 WS: Quite possible, given that there is no evidence of secondary explosions or fire.I thought those big stacks of tubes around the building were supposed to be rocket booster stages, which are *highly* combustible.
⭕🔻 C1: Did the Israelis blow off the roofs of a few empty buildings under construction? No secondary explosions, no nothing. No signs of burning or debris, just a clean roof removal? Makes no sense!Also, note the construction equipment in the “after” image. |media|
🔻 WS: TheImaginaryWar goes to Persia.
🔻 C2: They hit the Magic Carpet factory.
⭕🔻 WS: How could anyone with his alleged experience not have known perfectly well that it was a kamikaze run?I’ll bet each and every one of them understood exactly what they were doing. Why they chose that path is no doubt a complex question.
[Yeah. Drugs, Exceptionalism, Hatred of Untermenschen, control files, avarice, whatever – irresistible unto expungement. In fact, a microcosm of the Imperial Overlords’ predicament right now.]
🔻 C1: There’s nothing about the mission that says “suicidal” really. Cross border raids have been on going for months now. He was with some exceptional fighters (the other body I saw was from the 75th Rangers.) They mostly were just unlucky to run into so many drones.
[Right! Try it yourself then. Invade RUSSIA with 9 other men. A mere day’s workout..]
🔻 C2: Unfortunately, a lot of people in the West believe the NATO/Biden regime propaganda that the Russkies are a bunch of drunk bumbling goofs & that going over to Ukraine to fight them is like going on a safari…🤷♂️
🔻 C3: bravery that come from certain drugs ? emotional imbalace that came from years of using PED ?or just pure ‘easy money’ as he got tempted by supposedly ‘easy border raid’
look at the arms captured with them , thats rather massive load for small raiding team
🔻 C4: Look at all this medals on his chest. I bet this dude was sure that he is superior and invincible for that “russian barbarians”. Murica str0nG! In fact, nato soldier killed in try to attack russian land. We have full right to nuke US now.
🔻 C5: Human sacrifice
⭕🔻 C1: 200 km is too short & too late. Here you can see over 110 Iranian ballistic missiles (including Kheybarshekan 1 & 2 & Fattah 1 at hypersonic speeds) in their terminal phase within the atmosphere & below the THAAD envelope over Jordan! They would all escape THAAD! |media|
and even within the envelope of THADD, Kheybarshekan 1 & 2 & Fattah 1 missiles capable of maneuvering at hypersonic speeds, will still have a high chance of penetration! We may see it soon! Lots of critical Israeli military infrastructures will be soon in grave danger!
[he refers to THAAD envelope in map just above, and:
“Approximatively the area covered by the THAAD, which is capable of engaging targets at ranges of 150–200 kilometers.Theorically, no Missile shall pass (theorically)”]
🔻 WS: With the caveat that I am naturally much more aggressive than the Russians or Iranians or Chinese, if I were in Iran’s position right now, I would go hard after the US THAAD systems in Israel. I would make them the primary target of my retaliatory strike.
🔻 C2: Tom Luongo wondered if Iran may be holding back specifically because they don’t want to risk hitting the THAAD systems/personnel, and then suffering a major direct retaliation from the US
🔻 WS: The US lacks the material and logistical wherewithal to launch a “major direct retaliation” against Iran. I do not believe they will even attempt it. And if they do, it will turn out very badly for them.
🔻 C3: I thought the same thing. But, would there be a risk of killing American servicemen?
🔻 WS: There absolutely would be a risk of US military casualties.War means fighting. And fighting means killing.
[there have already died THOUSANDS of Americans in 404+Zion (combined)… one of the reasons the fear factor died worldwide. FAFO.]
🔻 C4: Or, your Russian alter ego would leave the systems intact until they’d used up a painful number of interceptors (pointlessly).
🔻 WS: No, no, no. That would be part of the strike. Exhaust their magazines first. Then hit them with the money shot.
⭕🔻 Simplicius: ⚡️🇺🇦🗣️35th Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine:I am sorry for promising to liberate Crimea and other occupied territories. It turned out to be an impossible task. I wrote that because I believed in it, I felt that we could. But the harsh reality has shown that we are starting to lose the war. What I am sure of for sure is that the Russians will not be able to cross the Dnipro, never.
The rat Zaluzhny obviously had information that we would start losing, and he fled to London, leaving all the responsibility on Syrsky’s shoulders. Syrsky is a genius, but it’s very difficult to make candy out of shit.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine recruit homeless people and drug addicts, the disabled and the old out of desperation. They are only suitable for being a live target. In the trenches, these soldiers do three things: play online casinos, take drugs or jerk off. Their life expectancy is from three days to a month.
The operation in the Kursk region was the last hope, the best of the best were sent there, and now the Russians are methodically levelling our guys to the ground.
I’m sorry for the betrayal, but I just can’t keep silent. I wish you all peace!
Many of our fighters have remained forever in the soil of Donetsk region. Their bodies will never come back home, they will be eaten by dogs or hungry orcs.Orcs move very fast and there are a lot of them. We just can’t hold our positions, we’re being fuc*ed from all sides. The 35th Brigade may cease to exist.
It’s genocide, we’re just being exterminated, what’s the plan?
🔻 Armchair Warlord: “The Russians will never be able to cross the Dniper.”Belarus: Am I a joke to you?
🔻 WS: I remember back when people were saying the Russians could never mount an amphibious operation to capture Odessa.I said, “Of course not. They’ll take Odessa from the north. Without a fight. Transnistria, too.”
I still believe that.
🔻 Mike: crossing Dnipro river is still a HUGE and unknown challenge.
🔻 WS: I think you need to examine the map more closely. The Russians are already across the river. They always have been.
🔻 Mike: Sir, I don’t see it. On Kherson and Zapozizhia area, they still in the left bank of river. And I don’t hear any news about troops crossing it, if I remember correct.Small recon or special forces doesn’t count, of course.
🔻 WS: You’re wrong. They are already across the river in force, and their supply lines are deep and secure.
[Now what is “Sir” talkin bout? Does he mean the forces in Belarus or Kharkiv??]
⭕ TheImaginaryWar is a powerful drug.Bear in mind, there is ZERO actual evidence that DPRK combat troops are in the Kursk region of Russia.
That said, IF there are, there is literally nothing the US/NATO can do about it.

⭕🔻 John Konrad: I ask againwho has nuclear launch authority right now?
Also… if he makes a mistake authorizing nukes will he apologize after?
🔻 WS : “Who has nuclear launch authority right now?” is an intriguing question.I would guess it is no one in the executive branch of government, and can only realistically be CQ Brown.
🔻 C1: The President of the USA.
Look it up
🔻 C1: He didn’t have the authority to run for President again.
🔻 WS: There was a coup d’etat in the US a few months ago. I guess you slept through it.I guarantee Joe Biden has ZERO authority to order a nuclear launch.
⭕ ‼️ There are extremely valuable military lessons to be learned from this story.
In 1932, a group of Australian soldiers and farmers waged an unconventional war against a horde of emus, large flightless birds that were destroying crops and livestock in Western Australia.The Great Emu War, as it was dubbed, was a military failure and a public embarrassment for the Australian government.
The soldiers were armed with machine guns and trucks, but they proved to be ineffective against the fast and agile emus, who scattered and regrouped at will.
The emus also seemed to have a remarkable ability to survive bullets, as some of them were reported to have taken up to five shots before falling. The soldiers managed to kill only about 250 emus out of an estimated 20,000. The war ended after six weeks, with the emus declared the victors.
[OK. I’ll spread the Word in Africa. (1) Buy Emu hide, (2) Run like the Wind in the opposite direction, (3) come back at Night while they’re sleeping or drinking….] -

🔻 ‘In 1982 when Israel invaded Lebanon, Hezbollah did not exist – and they occupied the South until 2000, with the aim of justifying a permanent presence and making settlements’
🔻 ‘Israel did not leave in 2000 due to international resolutions, but because of the unity of the Lebanese people and Resistance factions’
🔻 ‘Between 2006 and 2023, Israel committed 39,000 violations of Lebanese airspace and other violations’
🔻 ‘You cannot say Israel was provoked, they have continuously provoked us’

🔻 ‘This is not simply an Israeli war on Lebanon and Gaza, this is an American-Israeli WORLD WAR to eliminate our people from the entire region’
🔻 ‘We cannot stand and watch while 39,000 are martyred in Gaza, while tents of the camps are being burnt’

🔻 ‘We are fighting together with our brothers in the Amal movement against the Israeli aggression’

He added that his country would never change its policy of bolstering its nuclear forces.
The North Korean Defense Ministry said Pyongyang had “conducted a very crucial test,” adding that the launch was carried out on the orders of the leader, according to KCNA.
The test-firing updated recent records of North Korea’s strategic missile capability and demonstrated the modernity and credibility of the world’s most powerful strategic deterrent, the ministry added.

🔻 WS: TheImaginaryWar has become the most popular daydream cope in Israel in recent days.Of course, the claim that the IAF “destroyed Iran’s long-range air defenses” is easy to prove: launch deep-penetrating airstrikes into Iran and let’s see how it goes.
🔻 C2: Every s300 battalion has 1 or 2 battle management radar+8 fcs+48 missiles. Iran bought 5 or 4 battalions of pmu2 variant and 29 tor-m1
🔻 WS: The latest versions of the Iranian Bavar-373 are purported to be equivalent to the S-400. How many does Iran have? Unknown.
🔻 C2: Bavar is still under development, but better tactical systems are delivered to both the army and IRGC.
For instance, the Arman

🔻 C1: what does the self-destruct activation mean (mentioned in quoted post)?
🔻 WS: If Israeli SAMs don’t hit a target they are aimed at, they are designed to self-destruct so they don’t blow up civilians when they hit the ground.
🔻 C1: Can the David’s Sling system defend against the ballistic missiles seen in the video?
🔻 C2: Currently no anti-ballistic missile system exists in the world (in significant numbers) to defend against what Iran can launch. It is a game of basic numbers. Even the best BMD systems have few hundred interceptors in the whole world, COMBINED.Also very low kill probabilities.
🔻 WS: The Russians intercepted well over 90% of the ATACMS missiles launched against them, mostly with Buk systems, in the terminal phase.
⭕ ‼️ There are a few of us in the ranks of the armchair analysts who, amid mocking laughter from the “expert class”, have been writing for years about the inability of the US to engage in protracted high-intensity war.They’re not laughing anymore.
🔻 C1: Most people probably think, uhm, no big deal. US is running low on SAMs, ok, let’s just ramp production and produce asap what we need and a year from now or two everything will be fine.
The crucial issue is that this cannot be done! Not even if $ and political will are there.
🔻 WS: I have been writing on this topic for a long time:The Arsenal of Democracy Isn’t
🔻 C2: The real danger in this is if US is backed into a corner and facing imminent defeat/humiliation. What do you think happens then? This also applies to other nuclear powers BTW.
🔻 WS: So you believe the US, if facing “imminent defeat/humiliation” will commit suicide?I find that hard to believe.
[I disagree. They really may have become so delusional – i.e. fooled by fake scientists espousing “Nuclear Primacy”; or maneuvered into the suicide by Zion, clearing all rivals and obstacles for the Moshiach…]

They can’t quickly produce these SAMs even with a $1tn budget

🔻 WS: As I have long argued, World War Three is well underway. It’s simply that most people do not recognize that it has assumed a different form than what they thought WW3 would look like
🔻 C2: “Coincidence is the word we use when we can’t see the levers and pulleys.” ~ Emma Bull
🔻 C3: That’s too bad. That’s too bad.
🔻 Armchair Warlord: When enough suspicious incidents in critical facilities pile up in wartime after decades of safe peacetime operations, Occam’s Razor points to sabotage rather than accidents.
🔻 C3: Isn’t it also possible they’re trying to operate at a higher capacity than they’re used to, and perhaps than they’re really capable of, and that that makes accidents more likely? I mean sabotage is definitely possible but I guess I just tend to favor dumb luck as an explanation.
🔻 Armchair Warlord: I don’t think they’ve increased production rate at all due to the war in this facility.
⭕ ‼️ S-500 Anti-aircraft ReachIt is rumored Russia has deployed S-500 air defense systems in Crimea.
Here are some basic specifications to consider in relation to the S-500:
The S-500 has a 600km range in an anti-ballistic missile role; 500km in an air defense role.
Viewed solely in terms of its anti-aircraft capabilities:
Positioned near Sevastopol, S-500 coverage would encompass everything from Sochi to Donetsk to Dnipro to Bucharest, most of eastern Bulgaria, and all of the Black Sea.
Positioned near Brest (in western Belarus), S-500 coverage would encompass everything from Kiev, all of western Ukraine, parts of Romania, Hungary, Slovakia, most of Poland, parts of the Baltic Sea, all of Kaliningrad, and all of Lithuania.
Put simply, it could menace all aircraft in a huge swath of eastern Europe stretching from the Baltic to the Black Sea.
🔻 C1: How do the ranges relate to the radar horizon?
🔻 WS: Why do you (apparently) believe (along with many others) that Russia’s “radar horizon” is insufficient in relation to the range of its missiles?The Russians are capable of seeing well beyond the range of their missiles, and can target effectively within that range.
🔻 C2: Rumors aren’t true. Just TG drama.
🔻 WS: That’s beside the point. I am not confirming the rumors. I am simply providing essential specifications in terms of S-500 range.S-400 has 400km range — only 20% less.
If Russia wants to make a no-fly zone over much of Poland, Romania, and the Black Sea, it has the tools.
🔻 C3: All of you arguing over the horizon have forgotten about the A-50 providing long range detection, acquisition and guidance. Radar detection as always been a multicomponent system. There’s also satellite now.
🔻 WS: To the contrary, I assume an integrated radar picture, including A-50s and multiple layers of Russian AD systems.Of course an S-500 system would not be reliant solely upon its own radar unit. I would assume it can now receive in-flight targeting updates from the network.
🔻 C4: These sophisticated strategic SAM systems are big, expensive, explosive and soft. They are to expensive not to be a bunkers. The Radar units may get toasted but the launchers and command components can be secured.
🔻 WS: Nonsense. These are highly mobile systems. That is a strength, not a weakness. -

The military must decide on an appropriate response.’ Since then, the narrative has completely shifted, and a strong response seems almost certain.
This echos a similar experience after the assassination of Ismael Haniyeh in Tehran, when it was President Masoud Pezeshkian that wanted to avoid retaliation, but the Supreme Leader forced his hand, after the United States failed to abide by their promise of reaching a ceasefire in Gaza.

⭕ ‘Iran is preparing to attack Israel from Iraqi territory in the coming days, using a large amount of drones and ballistic missiles’ – Axios
⭕ I highly doubt this:1. First of all, Iran was attacked on Iranian territory by Israel itself, so the response will come from Iran, and it will be directly on Israeli territory. Iran even responded directly against Israel when Israel targeted the Iranian Embassy in Syria. Iran could have easily chosen to target Israeli assets abroad, but they decided to strike Israel itself, from Iran, with Iranian missiles. If they did it back then, when Iran was not even directly attacked, then they’ll definitely do it now.
2. Second of all, it’s not like Iran has missile bases or military bases inside Iraq. Saying that ‘Iran will attack Israel from Iraqi territory’ implies that it will be Iraqi militias doing it. This is not feasible, as the Islamic Resistance in Iraq does not have enough ballistic missiles and drones to launch a major attack against Israel simultaneously. They could launch probably a few dozen at once, but nothing more. And it will be easy to intercept. It would likely also instantly exhaust the majority of their current stockpile.
3. Third, it seems to me that the Israelis are publishing this in order to signal to Iran that this is a type of response they’ll allow to go unpunished. Barak Ravid, the Israeli journalist who wrote the article, is basically telling Iran; ‘attack us from Iraq, and we won’t strike back’, in the hopes that Iran will avoid a direct strike on Israel.
All in all, I think it’s extremely unlikely for the response to come from Iraq. It’s possible that the Iraqi Resistance is planning their own attack, but this would be seperate and independent from Iran’s response.
[this is why i rarely republish their crap, or Politico, or other western yellow rags. BTW, the youngster appears uninformed of Iraqi stockpiles, which I heard are impressive. But they are saving them for western bases and ISIS and occasionally potshots at Zion..]
⭕ Like bro, Iran DIRECTLY struck Israel after the Damascus embassy attack, and after Ismael Haniyeh’s assassination.

⭕ — 🔴 🇱🇧 Full statement by the Operations Room of the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon, November 1:The Islamic Resistance continues to confront the Israeli aggression in Lebanon, inflicting heavy losses on the enemy in terms of equipment and personnel along various confrontation axes and deep into occupied Palestine.
1. Land Confrontations:
In recent days, the Israeli army attempted to advance in southern Lebanese villages, facing resistance across multiple axes:- First Axis: In the area of the 146th Division, Israeli forces attempted to infiltrate towards the southern neighborhoods of Sheheen and Al-Jbeen, as well as Wadi Hamoul. The Mujahideen confronted them, forcing a withdrawal and targeting enemy positions in Al-Dhuhayrah and Ras Al-Naqoura.
- Second Axis: In the area of the 36th Division, the Resistance targeted Israeli gatherings amidst attempts to penetrate Aita al-Shaab and Aitaroun.
- Third Axis: In the 91st Division area, after heavy losses during recent confrontations, the enemy maintained fire control but did not attempt further advances.
- Fourth Axis: In the area of the 98th Division, resistance fighters confronted an Israeli force advancing towards Kfar Kila, inflicting casualties and forcing evacuation by military helicopters.
- Fifth Axis: In the area of the 210th Division, the Resistance targeted attempts to advance near Kfar Shouba and Shebaa, effectively countering enemy movements.
2. Missile Force: The missile force has conducted 655 operations since September 17, 2024, including 63 in the last three days, targeting Israeli military sites up to 105 km into Israel, reaching the northern suburbs of Tel Aviv with various types of missiles, including precision guided ballistic missiles.
3. Air Force: The Air Force has conducted 76 operations with over 170 drones since September 17, 2024, striking deep into occupied Palestine, including 11 operations in the last three days, reaching up to 145 km deep into Israel.
4. Air Defense Unit: The Air Defense Unit has launched 20 surface-to-air missiles against Israeli aircraft, with 4 launches in the past three days.
— Total Enemy Losses:
- Over 95 Israeli soldiers killed and 900 wounded.
- 42 ‘Merkava’ tanks, 4 military bulldozers, 2 ‘Humvee’ vehicles, an [unnamed] armored vehicle, and an armored personnel carrier destroyed.
- 3 ‘Hermes-450’ drones and 2 ‘Hermes-900’ drones shot down.
The Islamic Resistance asserts that enemy forces avoid visibility to prevent being targeted and rely on nighttime infiltrations. Supply lines remain intact, allowing for continuous resupply of weapons. Despite Israeli intelligence efforts, resistance fighters maintain the ability to launch rocket barrages from Lebanese territory without interruption.
⭕❗️🇱🇧 Hezbollah announces the Zionist losses since the start of the ground war in Lebanon:- Over 95 dead and 900 wounded among officers and soldiers.
- Destruction of 42 ‘Merkava’ tanks, 4 military bulldozers, 2 Hummer vehicles, an armored vehicle, and an armored personnel carrier.
- Downing of 3 ‘Hormuz-450’ drones and 2 ‘Hormuz-900’ drones.
These losses do not include any casualties or damage from missile and drone attacks inside occupied Palestine.

- The Foreign Ministry wrote on the social network X that Iran’s chargé d’affaires in Berlin had been summoned to hear “our strong protest” against Tehran’s action and added that it reserved the right to take “further measures.” It did not provide further details.
- He is one of several Iranian dissidents abroad who in recent years have been tricked or kidnapped into returning to Iran as Tehran began to unravel after the collapse of its 2015 nuclear deal with world powers including Germany.
Iran has accused Sharmahd, who lived in Glendora, California, of planning a 2008 mosque bombing that killed 14 people — including five women and a child — and wounded more than 200 others, as well as plotting other attacks through the little-known Kingdom Assembly of Iran and its Tondar militant wing.

⭕ ⁉️ Tomahawks to Ukraine?Tomahawk missiles cannot be delivered to Ukraine.
First of all, it is almost exclusively a naval missile. It would require an Aegis-Ashore installation, of which I believe there are currently only two: one in Romania; one in Poland.
The Pentagon doesn’t even have enough Tomahawk missiles to load all its warship magazines ONCE.
The Tomahawk has been effectively deprecated as an air-launched system, being mostly replaced by the JASSM.
The Tomahawk is slow and relatively archaic. Even the Syrians have been able to shoot down several over the years.
And besides, any NATO cruise missiles penetrating Russian airspace will be treated as a US/NATO nuclear first strike-in-progress. The vanguard of the Russian counterstrike will probably hit before any of the Tomahawks make impact on Russian soil.
See: the two Aegis-Ashore missile installations in Romania and Poland. These are what you call “static targets”.
🔻 C1: Moreover, Tomahawks are guided by GPS. Good luck getting any GPS guided weapon to hit a Russian target. Ain’t gonna happen.
🔻 WS: The Tomahawk also has terrain contour matching. But it is still a slow-flying relatively antiquated system that can be detected, tracked, and defeated without much difficulty.They would need to be launched in the hundreds to achieve meaningful strike impact against Russia.
🔻 C2: There’s a thing called the Strategic Mid-range Fires System, and it can launch Tomahawks just fine.
🔻 WS: 🤣Typhon is effectively still in beta-testing mode. As I understand its purpose, it is primarily intended to fire SM-6. They say they will put one in Germany next year. I guess we’ll see.
This much is certain: they can’t be sent to Ukraine.
🔻 C3: The Aegis Ashore does not fire Tomahawks. It has been repeated again and again, it can only use SM-3 interceptors, no offensive armament.
🔻 WS: You are misinformed. Aegis Ashore can be configured to fire every missile type an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer can fire.
🔻 C4: I agree with your larger points. Tomahawk does not need Aegis. Tomahawk in denied environments needs DMASC. I’ll dm you with for more details if you like.
🔻 WS: You have misapprehended the argument. The point is how a Tomahawk could be launched at this point in time.They could NOT be launched from Ukraine.
🔻 C4: You argument is it cannot be land or air launched because it needs Aegis. It does not need Aegis. We know this because Subs/Bombers launch Tomahawks. In an EM contested environment it needs DMASC, otherwise GPS is sufficient.
🔻 WS: You have misunderstood the argument.Air-launching has nothing to do with Aegis Ashore, which is obviously a ground-launch platform.
But, as I wrote, air-launching Tomahawks has been deprecated, and would require extensive refitting to enable.
Ukraine cannot launch Tomahawks.
🔻 C5: Why do you seem to discount the US/NATO attempting a nuclear first-strike? The likelihood of this occurring at some point in the not too distant future is much higher than many are comfortable with contemplating

🔻 Armchair Warlord: I posited earlier that, based off the experience of the First World War, the Ukrainian War is likely to eventually end via a revolution or series of revolutions in Ukraine leading either to a general state collapse or unconditional surrender.So what will that look like?⬇️
Well, first we need to assess the existing Ukrainian government – now ruled by President-for-Life Zelensky and a crony clique. The important thing to remember is that while there are plenty of Nazis in Ukraine, Zelensky is not Hitler – he is not some kind of Fuhrer figure that the ultranationalists will support unquestioningly. He is a tolerated frontman, approved by Ukraine’s Western sponsors, and he has amassed great power and wealth because of that – but he is replaceable.
Zelensky knows this, of course – many of his absurd power-fantasy statements lately read more like attempts to bolster his position among the ultranationalist hardliners that keep him in power than attempts to communicate serious talking points to a Western audience. They’re meant for internal consumption, and they suggest his position is rapidly weakening.
That position will collapse once there is an unmistakeable, un-spinnable, un-copeable disaster at the front. I suspect that disaster will be a rapid Ukrainian defeat in the upcoming Battle of Pokrovsk – a battle which I suspect will have more in common with the recent and relatively bloodless fall of several cities in that immediate area than the Bakhmut meatgrinder. That defeat will yank out the linchpin of the entire Ukrainian defensive scheme in the Donbass and set up the Russians to advance on a “big arrow” level for the first time since February 2022.
And Zelensky will be out of answers. At that point there will be a good case to be made that his failures caused this disaster and he must pay – more could have been done and he failed to do it, relying instead on promises of Western support that didn’t materialize (it’s nonsense but he’s been complaining about that recently) and complicated operational-strategic schemes that didn’t pay out. “Enough with NATO! Enough with Europe! Ukraine must fend for itself, with fire and blood and steel!”
So Zelensky and his clique will be overthrown by the ultranationalists and replaced by people made of sterner stuff – this is the “Kerensky government” I mentioned earlier. A government that will resort to the desperate measures we got a small glimpse of in February 2022 – national mobilization, calling out the Volkssturm, going from scraping the barrel to throwing the barrel itself into the fires of war.
Will NATO support this? Maybe, Western governments and media have shown a remarkable willingness to gaslight the public about the nature of their Ukrainian clients. Will this faze the Russians? No, they’ll accelerate their advance as the AFU turns into a rabble. That will probably lead to the outright collapse of the AFU, the collapse of the Ukrainian state with it, and either unconditional surrender by some rump government or otherwise the rapid conquest and partition of Ukraine by Russia and opportunistic NATO states.

Their air defenses played a role in interception, but even so, there’s been significant opposition within Israel because expectations were much higher.
- Iran will certainly respond to this act at an appropriate time and in a suitable manner. Israel’s calculations have been incorrect from the start.
- Should an existential threat arise, Iran will change its nuclear doctrine. We have the necessary capability to build weapons, with no issues in this regard; only the Supreme Leader’s fatwa currently prohibits it.
More in detail regarding extending missile range:
◽️ Everyone acknowledges Iran’s missile power. The only matter is missile range, which, until now, took Western and European sensitivities into account. But when they disregard our concerns, there’s no reason for us to consider theirs, so it’s possible Iran will extend its missile range.“We no longer consider Western concerns and may increase the range of our missiles (above the threshold of 2000km to fire at Israel).

However, recent incidents indicate a shift toward the intentional targeting of civilians, even in areas devoid of what Israel describes as “high-value targets.” This troubling escalation risks provoking Hezbollah into a reciprocal response.
Israel’s approach in Gaza has demonstrated its capacity for widespread civilian impact, with over 43,000 casualties reported. Will this intensifying cycle of violence in Lebanon be restrained, or will Israeli occupation forces be allowed the same latitude to act with impunity as seen in Gaza?

⭕ 🏦 IMF becomes financial appendage of NATO, impossible to respect, ex-IMF director for Russia says“The fund has become a financial appendage of NATO, into a conductor and instrument of the foreign policy of Western countries,” former IMF Executive Director for Russia Aleksey Mozhin told Sputnik on Friday, shortly before resigning.
The fund has become impossible to respect as it has become completely dishonest and unfair, he pointed out.
The IMF has a blacklist of member countries that are discriminated against on the basis of geopolitical preferences, Mozhin added.
🚫 Countries such as Iran, Venezuela, Zimbabwe, Syria, Afghanistan and Myanmar are on the blacklist, he said, noting that recently African countries such as Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso, which have broken away from Western influence and asserted their independence and sovereignty, have also been blacklisted along with Georgia as a “punishment for disobedience.”

⭕ Hezbollah just released a new video showing off the work of their anti-tank teams in Lebanon.It’s pretty typical for them, but they show off a few new types of weapons, namely ATGM launchers with 2-3 barrels. These are probably designed to counteract the IOF’s “Trophy” active defense system, which intercepts missiles with what is essentially a massive, radar guided shotgun. The primary weakness of this system is limited ammo and an inability to reload, so the 2 and 3 barrel launchers are designed to brute force their way through.
It is worth pointing out that “Trophy” has failed badly in Gaza for a variety of reasons. First and foremost, it cannot be used when operating with infantry because this automated system would kill them all. Even with a successful interception, the air is filled with shrapnel from both the missile and the Trophy system, and that shrapnel has to go somewhere. When the tanks are operating alongside infantry, the system must be turned off.
Secondly, it has a minimum operating distance of 50m. The Palestinian resistance in Gaza tends to operate from point blank range for precisely this reason. Ironically, the proliferation of Trophy means a lot of IOF tanks do not operate with the traditional infantry screen for safety reasons, meaning that resistance fighters can walk right up to the tanks. We have seen many cases of IOF Merkavas destroyed by satchel charges and RPG rockets at close range in resistance videos. |media|
⭕ 🔥🔥🇮🇱🔥🔥An entire salvo of Hezbollah rockets just impacted the Zionist settlement of Karmiel in the Galilee region of Occupied Palestine.Karmiel was founded in 1964 on the site of three depopulated Arab villages, Deir al-Asad, Bi’ina and Nahf. It is what’s called a “development town”, where settlement is heavily subsidized as part of the Jewish agency’s goal to “Judaize the Galilee”. These towns are basically military forts, designed to be a buffer between the Zionist entity and the “wild” frontiers and increase the number of Jewish residents at the expense of Arabs.
When 500 Arabs protested the settlement in 1965 by marching from Occupied Jaffa (“Tel Aviv”), they were told “Karmiel was not built to solve the problems for the people in the surrounding area.” This is because the so-called State of “Israel” is not a nation for the Israeli people, but rather a nation for the Jews and the Jews alone. It was designed at the expense of the native people from day one. The leaders of the protest were arrested, tried by a military tribunal and shot.

⭕ The drone strikes are happening at the same time as rockets fall on Haifa. Multiple direct impacts have been seen as IOF army radio reports 10 rockets launched from Lebanon.
⭕ As far as the factory strike is concerned, Zionist media says it’s located in Achziv, just north of Nahariya. That means our most likely candidate is the Kimberly-Clark manufacturing plant, located right here on Achziv beach. The plant was founded in 1971 and makes toilet paper.

⭕ 🤦♂️ Mearsheimer’s Blind SpotsHere is a perfect example of John Mearsheimer’s American-exceptionalist blind spots severely impairing his capacity to accurately discern the world in which we live |THREAD|
🔻 C1: He gets Russia and Israel correct, but his China views are more in line with people he usually criticizes….
🔻 WS: He grossly underestimated Russia’s military and economic power in the years leading up to the war in Ukraine.
🔻 C2: What part of what he says makes u think he has a “severely impaired capacity to discern the world in which live”?If anything, all he argues fits perfectly with his theory of offensive realism, the same one that earned him a place among the greatest political thinkers in history.
🔻 WS: I do not believe Mearsheimer is “among the greatest political thinkers in history”.At any rate, read my other replies in this thread for examples of what I regard as his “severely impaired capacity to discern the world in which live”
🔻 C3: Exactly Emmanuel Todd’s critic of Mearsheimer: ‘He still thinks the US is a nation’
🔻 C4: Freud: *snort* Every woman envies penises, every man wants to have sex with his mother and kill his father.Mearsheimer: Every country logically wants to stomp on the face of the rest of mankind until the heat death of the universe in a zero sum descent to hell to secure power
🔻 WS: Extending your Freudian quip, the overriding “reality” is that NONE of the current major powers has the reproductive vitality to pursue anything more than regional hegemony.Absent a baby-boom of unprecedented proportions, demographics will constrain imperial aspirations.
🔻 C5: Can you tell more about the blind spots?
🔻 WS: In addition to an incurable case of American Exceptionalism, Mearsheimer is borderline clueless about military matters, and understands next to nothing about China. He suffers from full-blown “Yellow Peril” virus.
[And he’s lived long enough in the Windy City.. Nuff said]
🔻 C6: But he is spot on regarding Ukraine
🔻 WS: I’ve followed Mearsheimer for at least a decade. I’ve watched his views on Ukraine and Russia undergo a slow evolution over that time. It took him until about mid-2023 to finally come to grips with many realities he either rejected or resisted up until then.
🔻 C6: Haven’t followed him to that extent, but he was talking about NATO expansion and the 2014 Maidan coup for years.Anyhow. I am not an expert and don’t pretend to be. I’ll take your expertise on issue over mine
🔻 WS: Mearsheimer spoke very eloquently and insightfully about the folly of NATO expansionism and using Ukraine to strategically weaken Russia. I recommended him quite often over the 2014 – 2022 time frame. (Search Mearsheimer from:imetatronink).But he still underestimates Russia.
🔻 C7: Yet his Ukraine analysis is entirely believable and is being borne out in real-time
🔻 WS: Mearsheimer’s Ukraine analysis was not the same in 2014 as it was in 2021, and then morphed rather reluctantly until mid-2023 (or so) when it finally caught up to the realities of the situation — when it finally became politically acceptable to speak the whole truth.
🔻 C8: “Realism” is a dead-end street. It’s just interventionism-light.
🔻 WS: My biggest criticism of the so-called “Chicago School of Realism” is that it is only sometimes (and then often only tangentially) in touch with reality.

🔻 C8: I’d still take Mearsheimer over any neocon, any day of the week. And on a personal level he is the consummate intellectual and gentleman
🔻 WS: I have learned a LOT from Mearsheimer over the years. I have always regarded him highly, and I agree with you that he is a “consummate intellectual and gentleman”.My criticisms of him are quite narrowly focused. But I consider it very important to recognize his blindspots
🔻 C9: What I adore about Mearsheimer is he never takes those criticisms personally and is always willing to change his mind if he finds the counter-argument compelling. I, however, agree with your assessment of his blind spots.
🔻 WS: I like Mearsheimer a lot. He is a very personable guy. I agree with him on many things. But I do think he tends to be myopic at times — failing to take into account big picture realities.He is also, imo, effectively clueless about military and economic matters
🔻 C10: I appreciate Mearsheimer’s take on Ukraine; however, he cannot transcend his roots in Anglo-American hegemonic thinking.Imperialism is inherently destructive; it is not sustainable. Only a “balance of power” can achieve peace and stability. Hegemony requires permanent war

🔻 C13: You’re mistaking Mearsheimer’s views. He’s not advocating these views because he is American. He would be saying the exact same thing if the roles were reversed. It’s nothing personal, just the nature of his ‘realism’ perception of international relations.

⭕ So, the German navy UNIFIL mission not only downed a resistance drone recently, marking its first public participation of the Israeli war on Lebanon, but also reportedly facilitated the mission of an Israeli naval commandos force today to abduct a Lebanese civilian ship captain.The UNIFIL, on behalf of Germany, of course denied complicity in the crime.
However, there is no way the speed boat made it to Lebanon’s northern coast without being spotted by the UNIFIL’s Naval mission.

⭕ Iran leader Sayyed Ali Khamenei ending the doubt: Iran will hit Israel strongly.It is only a question of when.
⭕ Israeli Special Forces landed in northern #Lebanon, in Batroun—a region under Lebanese Army jurisdiction—and conducted a targeted operation to abduct civilian naval captain Imad Amhaz. The forces approached by sea, carried out the abduction, and then withdrew the same way. This incident raises significant questions about security and sovereignty in Lebanese coastal areas, particularly under military control, as well as the nature of Israel’s covert operations in Lebanon. Further details on the motivations behind Amhaz’s abduction or his possible links to broader intelligence interests remain unconfirmed at this time.
⭕ Germany has a @UN naval force patrolling the Lebanese coast that downed a drone heading towards an Israeli target but couldn’t see an Israeli boat with large Special forces violating the Lebanese sovereignty and kidnapping a Lebanese citizen.
⭕ In this war, the resistance needs a determined ground forces and thousands of drones, than @netanyahu is done, his arrogance will be buried and he will be left with a defeat and a war criminal title.
⭕ Urgent:#Israel engaged many jets in the air and asked tens of thousands of settlers to seek shelters because a drone sent by #Hezbollah crossed several locations, disappeared and can’t be intercepted or found. Any one can help to look for it?
⭕ It is reasonable to question why #Israel would conduct such a high-risk operation involving 25 elite Shayetet-13 special forces to abduct a target—an inexperienced 20s-year-old naval trainee— who did not hold a prominent position or intelligence value.The individual could have family ties or connections that Israel finds valuable, particularly if he has relatives or close contacts in Hezbollah or other groups of interest. If Israel assessed that he could become an asset in the future due to these connections, they might justify the illegal, riskier operation.
Sometimes, individuals outside the core leadership serve as essential, with knowledge of movements or plans due to their roles in logistics or communications. Israel could have gathered intelligence indicating that this individual had access to important communications channels or personnel, warranting direct interrogation or debriefing.
Israel might have used the operation to test the Lebanese Army’s readiness and response time in a controlled area and the UNIFIL Navy under German control. By conducting a high-profile abduction, Israel could assess the logistical difficulty of covert operations in Lebanese Army-controlled territory away from this specific area, essentially probing for weak points in security or response patterns.
Sometimes, intelligence is interpreted with incomplete information, leading to operations based on the assumption that the individual may have more valuable connections or information than they actually do. This could explain why Israel dedicated resources to a seemingly low-value target.
Conducting a high-profile operation in a region under Lebanese military control could also serve as a form of psychological pressure. Such an action could sow fear or mistrust within Hezbollah and other groups, making individuals in certain regions wary of their safety even outside typical areas of conflict.
⭕ Why is Hezbollah using dozens of drones daily/weekly?
What is the advantage/benefit?#Hezbollah’s drones have evolved into one of the organisation’s most formidable tactical assets, exhibiting a level of effectiveness that poses a direct and persistent challenge to #Israel’s security protocols.
These drones have not only demonstrated their ability to reach sensitive areas but, on two separate occasions, they penetrated security perimeters around Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s residences, even causing damage to his bedroom area. Such attacks, including the one against the Golani barrack, underscore the precision, range, and disruptive potential of Hezbollah’s drone capabilities, highlighting their capacity to strike high-value targets deep within Israeli territory.
Hezbollah’s drones are equipped with sophisticated navigation and targeting systems, enabling them to conduct precision reconnaissance and direct strikes. Operating at low altitudes and leveraging terrain-following capabilities, these drones can evade traditional radar systems, allowing them to infiltrate areas with high-value targets without early detection. By utilizing GPS and other satellite guidance technologies, Hezbollah’s drones can strike or surveil specific locations within a precise margin of error, posing a real threat to secured facilities and key personnel.
The ability of Hezbollah’s drones to reach critical Israeli sites indicates a remarkable range and penetration power. These drones are designed to fly extensive distances, breaching secure zones and dodging multiple layers of defence. Their effectiveness is not limited by proximity to the Lebanese border, granting Hezbollah the ability to project power deeper into Israel than traditional ground-based forces.
Hezbollah’s drones are relatively affordable to manufacture even locally, which allows the group to deploy them in more significant numbers than many conventional weapon systems. This scalability enables Hezbollah to launch multiple drones in swarm formations, overwhelming Israel’s air defences by saturating radar systems with numerous targets. Swarm tactics allow Hezbollah to increase the likelihood of at least one or several drones successfully reaching their intended target, as intercepting every unit in a multi-drone operation presents significant challenges to air defences.
Hezbollah’s drones fulfil multiple roles, including intelligence gathering, precision strikes, and psychological operations. For surveillance, these drones are used to monitor Israeli troop movements, observe defensive deployments, and gather real-time data, which bolsters Hezbollah’s planning capabilities and situational awareness. When outfitted with explosive payloads, the drones can target specific military (or other) infrastructure or high-profile individuals, including potential assassination attempts on leaders such as Netanyahu.
This versatility makes Hezbollah’s drones an invaluable intelligence and offensive operations asset.
Hezbollah’s adoption of drones aligns with its strategy of asymmetrical warfare, allowing the organisation to challenge Israel’s conventional military superiority. Each successful drone incursion not only demonstrates Hezbollah’s tactical reach but also creates a profound psychological effect on the Israeli public and the army leadership. The capability of these drones to penetrate secure areas is a stark reminder of Hezbollah’s reach and technical prowess, creating a sustained atmosphere of vulnerability that Israel must continually address.
Hezbollah’s reliance on drones for high-risk missions minimises the need to deploy personnel into dangerous situations, thereby reducing human risk. These remotely operated systems provide a critical advantage in missions that would otherwise entail substantial risks for human operatives, especially in heavily fortified areas. The ability to execute strategic goals from a distance enhances Hezbollah’s operational flexibility and allows it to engage Israeli defences with relatively minimal manpower and resources.
Hezbollah’s drone program has forced Israel to allocate significant resources to counter-drone defences, including enhanced radar systems, electronic countermeasures, and missile defence batteries. Each incursion or successful targeting operation by Hezbollah’s drones imposes operational and psychological costs on Israel, as it compels the country to continually fortify its defences while remaining vigilant to the potential for future attacks.

⭕ Israel’s Systematic Targeting of Children and Healthcare: A Policy Replicated in LebanonSince October 4, the Israeli military has killed at least one child and injured 10 daily in Lebanon, according to UNICEF, but the real numbers are likely higher by the dozens. The World Health Organization reports at least 55 verified attacks on healthcare workers and facilities in Lebanon by Israel.
A recent CNN investigation analyzed over 240 airstrikes in Lebanon, revealing that at least 24 hospitals are within a 500-meter ‘danger zone’ designated by the Israeli military. Israel dropped munitions within a lethal range of 340 meters from at least 19 hospitals.
In Beirut and its southern suburbs, CNN confirmed that 10 hospitals fell within the ‘kill zone,’ where bomb fragments can cause fatalities.

💠 @Yemen | Bab-el-Mandeb:
⭕ 🔸 This is how “Um al-Dunya” has become in the era of Ibn al-Raqasa.Yemen prevents any ship that supports the Zionist entity, while Egypt allows ships carrying explosive materials to pass through to the entity and also permits Zionist warships to transit through the Suez Canal. To what level has Egypt, “Um al-Dunya,” reached in terms of decline and betrayal?
[“Um al-Dunya,” is the self-styled nickname of Egypt, meaning “the mother of the world”, as they’re one of the oldest civilizations extant since the Flood. The betrayal of Egypt is sad. Not surprising in the others, but the Fall of Egypt is historic]
⭕️ 🌐 The escalation of America, Britain, and Israel against Yemen is not an inevitable matter, but rather a very likely possibility based on ten certainties:- The continuation of the Zionist entity’s war and aggression against Gaza and Lebanon!
- Yemen’s ongoing military support for Gaza and Lebanon, both in the air and at sea!
- Yemen’s complete military and logistical readiness to face any upcoming escalation!
- The participation of Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and their mercenaries!
- The collapse of the truce between Yemen on one side, and Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and the mercenaries on the other!
- The igniting of fires in all oil wells in Saudi Arabia and the UAE!
- The collective awareness among the Arab street, recognizing that the war on Yemen is due to its support for Gaza and Lebanon!
- The clarity of vision within society and the fall of the neutrality option, imposing a single equation with no alternatives: either with Yemen and the Muslims in Gaza and Lebanon, or with America, Britain, Saudi Arabia, Israel, the UAE, and their mercenaries!
- The ineffectiveness of any innovative propaganda titles that Saudi Arabia and its mercenaries will try to create and operate under, not to mention their attempts to recycle worn-out narratives such as ending the coup, confronting the Persian tide, and defending the companions, etc.!
- With God’s help, the methodology of the Quran, the wisdom and faith of the Yemeni people, and their steadfastness under the leadership of the righteous scholar Sayyid Abdul-Malik Badreddin al-Houthi, Yemen will prevail!
⭕ 🌐 If the Saudi and Emirati knew what Yemen has prepared for them in terms of preparations if they were to engage in aggression against the country, they would quickly announce their disavowal from America and Israel.
[Don’t be sad about Brazil and South Africa, folks! There are far worse inside BRICS. Real Trojan horses, and enemies of humanity.]
💠 @ejmalrai:
⭕ The commander of the Israeli army’s Northern Command, Ori Gordin, shouted the word ‘Hezbollah’ as he drove into Lebanon while reading a report on the heavy casualties suffered by his forces. His driver thought his commanders were warning him of Hezbollah’s proximity, so he veered off the road and panicked. Gordin came out with some injuries that were less serious than if he had been confronted by Ridwan’s forces (sarcasm).
☝️ wow. Do the Limeys read this thread? They’re going “incognito” in a hurry, catching up with the Yanks! Under how many comely dyed skirts can they hide? Panic sets in. It is pointless to try to “whitewash” a Sea of High Crimes at this point! And the Götterdämmerung is upon them -
This is a telling plug by China. Civilizational-states are shoulder to shoulder. Locked & loaded.
The wretched Anglo-Zionist is already Defeated, and worldwide. Too dumb to recognize it…💠 @Middle East Spectator:
⭕ — 🇱🇧 Hezbollah: ‘Keep looking up.’ |media|💠 @Palestinian Commie:
⭕ Hezbollah carried out 26 operations on November 2, 2024- Targeted 8 gatherings/movements of Israeli soldiers/vehicles at settlements across the border and forces attempting to infiltrate the border/advance in south Lebanon (including Maroun al-Ras) using rockets and artillery shells, causing injuries and deaths.
- Targeted an Israeli mechanized force trying to advance towards the town of Houla with two guided missiles that hit two military bulldozers at the forefront of the force, destroying and burning them, killing and wounding those inside them, and forcing the them to withdraw.
- Launched 11 rocket/missile barrages at different cities, sites, settlements and Israeli positions both behind and across the border in the Galilee, at varying distances.
- Carried out 5 ‘Khaybar’ special operations with the call “At your service, Nasrallah”, targeting critical Israeli sites, including bases south of Haifa and Tel Aviv.
- Launched attack drones at the Shraga base (the administrative headquarters of the Golani Brigade Command) north of Acre, hitting its targets.
💠 @Fotros Resistance:
⭕ 🛑|🇺🇳 JUST IN: US, Israel, Canada & Australia voted AGAINST a resolution on missile proliferation.The resolution was proposed & led by Iran at the General Assembly on missile proliferation. Iran is concerned about the rapid increase of WMD of Israel against harmless civilians.
[So the West signifies it shall be a holocaust of Greater Syrians to the end. Well done, digging graves deeper. And note Iran turned the tables — the criminals had howled about Iran’s ballistic missiles in last years; they even had the temerity to demand inclusion in revamped JCPOA. Now they nuke their own lies!More important in the voting above is the “abstentia” — especially those doomed bedouins living just across the Persian Gulf!]

“The Islamic Republic has the right to attack the Zionist entity from anywhere in Iraq.”
“The Islamic Resistance has not stopped its operations against critical sites within the entity [Israel],” and added that in the next round of attacks “the resistance will use more advanced missiles, in line with the planned escalation.”

💠 @imetatronink:
⭕ 🔻 C1: Any prediction?
🔻 WS: Only an observation:If you’re gonna talk big, you better go big, or go home
🔻 C2: Perhaps aiming for the THAADs in place, but then again that’s probably why US flew over those B-52 bombers. However, if Iran really wanted to, it could aim for those bombers in Qatar and elsewhere first since they are riiiight there..Still think it would not be wise, that’s war
🔻 WS: The war has already begun.
⭕️ ☠️ Pick Your PoisonThose who believe Trump is an “antiwar” candidate have conveniently forgotten what happened during his first administration:
- the arming and training of #TheMotherOfAllProxyArmies in Ukraine was expanded and accelerated;
- several covert US bases and bioweapons labs were built in Ukraine;
- massive US missile strikes were launched against Syria;
- Iranian general Qasem Soleimani was assassinated by a drone strike in Baghdad.
A second Trump presidency is certain to be AT LEAST as geopolitically and militarily reckless as the first. I am convinced the US will blunder into a military disaster and suffer a shocking defeat.
Of course, a Kamala Harris presidency will lead to the same outcome.
So … pick your poison. ☠️
🔻 C1: Everything you state is true my friend; however, I disagree. Trump is the best antiwar candidate in the race. Most countries understand one thing – strength. Weakness will always be exploited. Strength equals peace
🔻 WS: How exactly is Trump — or anyone else, for that matter — going to conjure “strength” from a rapidly deteriorating and irreversible state of US soft and hard power decline?Sorry, but I submit the trajectory of events is set in stone.
alea iacta est
🔻 C1: Damn it Will – you make a strong argument as usual. I can only speak from experience, which is not as solid as I wish it was. Foreign leaders recognize strength. Trump projects power. Yes, the soft and hard power of the U.S. had declined. But how did Putin reverse the decline?
🔻 WS: Putin has reversed the decline in Russia over the course of a quarter century since he commenced in earnest to do so.When I discern an earnest commencement to do so in the US, I suspect it will take at least that long to achieve
🔻 C2: What was the date of the Soleimani hit? Right before he left office. The entire Russia collusion ploy to knee cap his term had a chilling effect, wouldn’t it? He made horrible choices (Pompeo/Bolton) and I agree his Syria policy is all wrong. Tulsi might be a factor this time.
🔻 WS: Soleimani strike: January 3, 2020 — over a year before Trump left office.Pompeo will probably be made Secretary of Defense.
Lindsey Graham has Trump’s ear.
Gabbard is gung ho for war against Iran.
People are deceiving themselves about these things to an unprecedented degree
🔻 C3: where have you heard Gabbard calling for war with iran or any war ?
🔻 WS: I pay close attention to such things. You should, too. Tulsi Gabbard is not what she has pretended to be. She is as devout a disciple of American exceptionalism as all the rest
🔻 C3: trust me i do; Tulsi Gabbard is the ultimate anti war candidate and she did all that despite dem media calling her an Assad and Putin puppet
🔻 WS: Believe what you will. She has strongly backed Israel over the past year+, and supported the idea of the US/Israel acting in concert to defeat Iran’s regional dominance in the Levant/Persian Gulf region.She doesn’t understand how the world has changed.
🔻 C4: Tulsi is not for war with Iran. Pompeo will never be anything in the next admin. Everyone in DC knows what Lyndsey Graham is. Trumpy is concilliatory to some of these fiends for a variety of reasons of his own as its a complicated game especially at present.
🔻 WS: I hear this combination of denial and hope quite a lot.I don’t believe it is true.
But I will be glad if it DOES turn out to be true.
🔻 C5: Crippling sanctions against Venezuela led to starvation, exodus of millions.
🔻 WS: 21st century siege warfare. -

“Zelensky will be killed in any case” When yer outta coke yer outta luck
Yesterday, in one of his infrequent interviews, Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev said that any new government, a new Maidan in Ukraine, will most likely start by executing those who previously sat on Bankovaya Street and, in fact, seized power in the country: “While they are in power, they will not be able to get out of power. they are alive, [but] as soon as they are not in power — they do not exist.”
