    Channel 14: Israel is weighing a preemptive strike against Iran.

    Again? We know they are crazy but this is a major crazy! Big talk to maintain their narrative.

    Palestinian Ministry of Health:
    —
    A distress call that may be the final one.

    The occupation forces continue to heavily bombard and destroy Kamal Adwan Hospital, affecting all of its facilities.

    There are numerous injuries among the medical staff and patients, and the medical teams are unable to move between the hospital departments or save their injured colleagues.

    It appears that a decision has been made to execute all the staff who refused to evacuate the hospital.

    BREAKING: The Hanzala hackers, one of the largest & most well-known Iranian hacking group, announced that it has breached the computer systems of the Elad municipality (in Tel Aviv area).

    They succeeded in obtaining about 3TB of sensitive data, including residents’ personal documents, contracts, geographic information, and more.

    Additionally, the attackers reportedly deleted some information from the servers, disrupting municipal operations.

    The Hanzala group is known for its activities against Israeli targets. In the past, it has carried out cyberattacks on government websites and private companies. Last April, simultaneously with Iran’s True Promise-1 strike, the group sent half a million text messages to Israeli settlers, urging them to oppose their government and support Iran.

    No worries emersonreturn. Put it in and I’ll check regularly and fix if any fixing has to be done.

    Let me grab this moment for a trick, a tip. If anyone wants to add a youtube video, right-click on the video and choose copy embed code. And then put the code in here, in text mode … right hand side top of this input window .. just see that text is chosen and not visual. But if you don’t want to, that is fine as well.

    That will allow the video to be normal sized and not so big as we have them here. (Yes yes, AHH knows .. he is just too busy usually to make one more click lol – every stupid video platform now has a different way to do it and it drives me nuts.)

    This week is a week of spreading the work. My dear colleague is taking a few days off to rest his weary soul, and I’m asking all of us who so regularly enjoy and appreciate his updates, to take up the sword and update this thread for us for this week. Feel the heat!

    We are much obliged!

    I wish AHH a time of deep relaxation and send much love!

    From Channel ResistanceTrench

    Israel: We are ready to stop ground operations in southern Lebanon for siege of Lebanon.

    Channel 12 of the Zionist regime announced that Tel Aviv has proposed to Lebanon that in exchange for stopping and not expanding the ground operations in Lebanon, they should accept that United States begin a land, sea and air blockade of Lebanon.

    I’m so sorry to hear that. There are complaints everywhere of being silenced. Of course people blame the platforms whereas it is really those with influence over the platforms.

    The South Africans were quite proud of it .. they said: We Took Him Out! At least to me in later years when I asked the grands to explain this to me. I took it to be big talk from soldiers or mercenaries. One grandfather fought for the allies and another fought for the Germans so my education on these things came from two perspectives and both sides repeated that story.

    I checked the UN Library but cannot find the report. It was given to the assembly they say, so it should get to the Library.

    And where that plane fell — there was nothing there. Bush, thick African bush, perhaps a farm or two, perhaps a farm dirt airstrip for small planes. The guys back from the war flew small planes to service farms and surely they did other dirty business. How they could let Northern Rhodesia (now Zambia) investigate a plane crash goes over my head.

    I think they take the file out now and again – kinda like an open case.

    Funny, there was a time that we could sass the cops. They continually raided our house for ‘unwanted literature’ as everything was banned in my world. Sometimes the excuse was that they are checking if we were sheltering dissidents to which I replied yes .. I am a dissident and we’re sheltering me in this house. Small community and the one cop’s family were neighbors. That young one I just threatened that I’ll tell his mother. It was surreal – he was in my swim class, a little round lazy pudgy, and now he is raiding my house? But we knew when they were coming as the clicks from the phone intercept became more than usual and they followed me to and from work more frequently as their investigation took shape. Usually we also got a warning of a raid. They also knew they would not find anything, so it was simply intimidation. Our cops did not have much education and I’m afraid I was not very nice to them and mocked them. Mao’s Little Red Book had a new cover .. Little Red Riding Hood. Wild times, those years through the last gasps of apartheid and colonialism. Only to be replaced by a vicious neo-colonialism.

    The phrase “Seek Truth from Facts” was introduced to the People’s Republic of China (PRC) as a hallmark slogan of Mao Zedong.

    One forms your thoughts on geopolitics and international relations on your information and your full and complete grasp of most everything around that. Example, major speeches of world leaders I like to post the whole speech, and not the meta data, i.e., what someone says about it .. Meta data is dangerous, because we miss the woods for the trees.

    And I like to honor our fellow truth seekers and to honor them, their information must be of high value and correct, in as much as we can be, so that I can quote them with confidence, even if I have not read their stuff. There are only two that I can quote, without even reading. All of the other pundits I must read or listen to carefully.

    Things happen if we seek truth from facts. I have this story about Michael Hudson who at one time changed my complete view on economic geopolitics with a 3-word sentence. I stood on my head after that sentence and all I could stammer was Yeah, of course!

    Then Iran specifically needs to get a pat on the back now. They’ve been crawling through hell and stood fast all these years. Stolen valor now is not a good thing. Now specifically … because we are in a world of lies and hasbara and false projections. And now specifically, because we cannot be alone and we need to trust our fellows.

    Something for all. OK, we hear the Russian pundits (basically everyone out there) saying that Iran had Russian weapons or defensive systems and that Russia helped Iran.

    Why can we not be happy for Iran’s performance? Why do we have to grab it for Russia? Or for China for that matter. Iranians are not fools and they’ve planned for these days for a long time. Even the DPRK has missiles and defense systems. In addition, there is no real proof that “Russia gave Iran missile defenses. There was press that Iran bought S300s, but just as much press saying the deal had fallen apart. This was in any case in 2006; https://www.armscontrol.org/act/2016-11/news-briefs/russia-completes-s-300-delivery-iran Do a search on that and you’ll see. (The Russian exceptionalists will claim the space visitors for Russia alone really.) (But Donald Trump says that he knows all about the space visitors. I punished myself and listened to the one and only Trump stump that I’ll listen to in this election season, the discussion with Joe Rogan).

    So now here is something. “For the first time, China’s laser defense weapons have been used in large-scale combat on the battlefield. In Israel’s air strikes on Iran, China’s laser defense system reached an interception rate of more than 99%, remember, this is just an old version of China’s foreign trade.” What they are talking about is called Silent Hunter. But there also is ‘Shen Nung’ or ‘Shennong’.

    https://www.eurasiantimes.com/chinese-laser-weapon-protects-irans-supreme/

    So, the interception rate is overstated because the laser defense weapons are made for “low, slow, and small” aerial threats, or at least the ones that I was able to read about – who knows, perhaps they have more. It is not a missile killer but it is a drone killer and low flying airplane killer. (So those Israeli jets flew low but in my understanding, did not cross the border.)

    I have another thesis. All the pundits (USA based or influenced) are so scared that Russia will let fly a missile in the US direction, that they forget China can do that too.
