– How can death be end of something that doesn’t have a beginning?
Hassan, my son, don’t be sad at my wedding night.
– Your wedding night?
– Yes. My marriage with eternity.”

The December 10th Starlink Test: A Human Experimentation Paralleling NTP and RI Rat Studies

“Introduction: On December 10th, SpaceX is set to conduct a significant test of its Starlink satellite technology, involving the irradiation of populated areas in 13 states across the USA. Thus creating control groups between different populations of microwave exposure from space. This event, while a leap in technological advancement, raises profound ethical concerns. It mirrors the structure of well-known scientific studies by the National Toxicology Program (NTP) and the Ramazzini Institute (RI), where some rats were exposed to RF radiation while others were not, to assess health risks.”

by Amir Khusrow
Translation-
Why did you part me from yourself, dear father, why?
You’ve given houses with two stories to my brothers,
And to me, a foreign land? Why dear father, why?
We (daughters) are just cows tied to your peg,
Will move on to where ever you drive us to, dear father.
We are just flower-buds of your garden,
And are asked for, in every household, dear father.
We are just birds from your cage,
Will fly off when its dawn again, dear father.
I’ve left at home, alcoves full of dolls;
And parted from my friends too, dear father.
When my palanquin passed beneath the terrace,
My brother fainted and fell, dear father.
As I remove the curtain from the palanquin,
I see we’ve reached the beloved’s house, dear father.
Why did you part me from yourself, dear father, why?

The Unrecorded Fatalities of the ‘War on Terror’
Nafeez Ahmed examines the direct and indirect deaths of the post 9/11 era, as a new kind of state-sanctioned mass violence became globalised and normalised :

“Twenty years after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, compelling statistical data has emerged suggesting that the true death toll of the ‘War on Terror’ could be as high as six million people – and that this colossal figure is itself likely to be conservative.”

Genocide in service of Nakba 2023

Genocide in service of Nakba 2023

“The ongoing genocidal war on Gaza is not about Hamas or Israeli captives, but the depopulation and ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people which is being implemented in brutal but deliberate stages.”

https://sputnikglobe.com/20231205/environmentalists-gazas-water-farmland-will-be-unusable-if-idf-floods-tunnels-with-seawater-1115413868.html
Gaza’s fragile ecosystem could be permanently damaged by a huge influx of salty seawater like that which Israel is considering pumping into the city, experts said. Some of the deepest tunnels dug by Hamas and other militant groups could be near groundwater depths, souring the area’s drinking water.

ADL Says “God’s Mercy” Is an Anti-Semitic Trope

The Anti-Defecation League (ADL) has issued a press release demanding the banning of the expression “God’s mercy” from social media. According to the ADL, the notion that God is merciful, and the associated idea that mercy is good, is “a direct attack on Jews and their beliefs.”

🌹Following a unanimous vote, the Dublin City Council has agreed to fly the Palestinian flag on top of the City Hall.
The decision is one of many similar acts of solidarity with Gaza, which is currently enduring a genocidal Israeli war that killed and wounded tens of thousands of Palestinians.
▪️“The 200th cargo plane carrying military equipment for the IDF (Israeli army) has arrived in Israel,” the statement read, adding:
“Over 10,000 tons of military equipment were delivered since the beginning of the war, including armored vehicles, armaments, personal protective equipment, medical supplies, ammunition, and more.”
▪️In a press conference in Beirut, Lebanon, Hamdan stated that Israel’s many massacres against innocent civilians are indicative of its vindictive nature, and the reflection of its failure on the battlefield.
Below is a summary of Hamdan’s press statement.
– The occupation’s horrific massacres against defenseless civilians reveal its retaliatory behavior due to the extent of (its) losses.
– The Nazi massacres are not limited only to Gaza, but also extended to the West Bank and Al-Quds.
– There are no safe areas in all of the Gaza Strip, despite American claims and the propaganda of the occupation.

🔻Israel Has Crossed Its Rubicon
by Ted Rall
https://sputnikglobe.com/20231204/israel-has-crossed-its-rubicon-1115381012.html
“A few weeks ago, from an international and domestic-U.S. PR standpoint, Israel might have been able to bring its war in Gaza in for a hard landing. Now, it has painted itself into a corner.
Gaza has been destroyed. By this time next year, so will Israel-not its physical plant, but its current status as a privileged, funded, protected nation-state…

“Salting the earth, ploughing a toxic chemical into farmland so that no food can be harvested again, was the invention of Abimelech, one of the tribal leaders of the Jewish people after they had invaded Caanan to create the Israelite kingdom, and after the Israelite tribes had begun fighting among themselves.

🤐 Abimelech’s salting of Shechem is about three thousand years old. The Israeli use of depleted uranium ordnance supplied by the US, which invented depleted uranium as a “terrain-denial” weapon in 1943, is right now. The objective is the same as the Book of Judges 9:45 tells the story – genocide by making the land occupied by the Palestinians uninhabitable for the future.”

🔻Forwarded from Ostashko:
Investors in stock markets made billions after the Hamas attack on October 7.
Israeli publication Haaretz writes that those who made big bets against Israeli stocks on the Tel Aviv and US stock markets in the days before the Hamas attack made billions.
📝 “The volume of short transactions on October 2 was so huge – 227,000 units compared to several thousand on any given day – that it doesn’t seem like anyone was gambling. Whoever was behind the deals apparently knew for sure that disaster would hit Israel ,” the publication writes.
https://archive.ph/YSiVs
❗️ Journalists do not exclude that Hamas or persons in contact with this organization who were aware of the group’s plans may be involved in the operations. For a moment, the circle of these individuals (who knew about the attack) includes the official leadership of Israel, as well as the Americans, including Biden.

🤦‍♂️ It turns out that they ignored the Hamas attack not only in order to have a reason to “wiped the Gaza Strip off they face of the earth, but also in order to earn extra money by playing on the stock market.” To whom is war, and to whom is mother dear?

▪️An outbreak of gastrointestinal diseases and food poisoning has been reported among Israeli soldiers who are deployed in the Gaza Strip, Israeli media reported.
▪️Israel has evacuated nearly 70 percent of its forces from the northern Gaza Strip, according to a source in Al-Qassam Brigades, speaking to Al-Jazeera Arabic channel.
The reason behind the Israeli decision to reduce the intensity of its military operations in the north is the steadfastness of Palestinian Resistance, according to the source.

Gaza and Muslim Immigration to Europe
by Israel Shamir
https://www.unz.com/ishamir/gaza-and-muslim-immigration-to-europe/
“We are trying our best to figure out – why is Jewry so keen to import as many Muslims to Europe and USA as possible, and at the same time prepare the Gaza genocide? Do they do it out of sheer idealism? Out of compassion (hard to believe)? Or out of silliness? Could it be that this calculating people didn’t take into account that Muslims might react to genocide against Palestinians?”

Documents expose Israeli conspiracy to facilitate October 7 attack
by Andre Damon
https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2023/12/02/klox-d02.html
“On Friday, the New York Times published a report establishing conclusively that Israel was fully informed, in detail, of plans by Hamas to attack its border that were executed on October 7. These revelations make clear that Israeli officials, knowing full well where and how Hamas would strike, made a deliberate decision to stand down in order to facilitate the attack.
These revelations mean that the Israeli government allowed and abetted the killing of their own citizens and that the Israeli government is responsible for the deaths that took place that day. This criminal conspiracy was aimed at establishing a pretext for a long-planned genocide against the people of Gaza…

These revelations expose the Gaza genocide to be a criminal conspiracy by the Netanyahu regime and its imperialist backers, whose victims include not only 20,000 slaughtered Palestinians, but the Israeli population itself.”

▪️According to Israeli Channel 12 and Israeli military expert Barham Meir, in the last 24 hours the IDF suffered its heaviest losses since October 7. 25 armored vehicles were destroyed or damaged, 75 personnel were killed.
Some of the personnel died in ambushes organized by Hamas using tunnels.
▪️Despite heavy casualties in yesterday’s fighting, the IDF continues its attacks to cut the southern Gaza Strip in two. The group’s command faces an obvious task – to break the resistance of Hamas and Islamic Jihad units, to reach the sea, and to try to undermine as many tunnels as possible in the breached gut.
