it's going to be another 'temp buffer zone' that'll accidentally start accruing settlers isnt it
Clear as day. Not calling it out and condemning it at the highest level is a disgrace.
As soon as anyone calls it out they are immediately shut down with accusations of being anti semetic. Its a classic technique to shut doesnt any legitimate criticism

That’s not fair - Keir Starmer is very concerned about it.

It's time to build a wall around the 1967 borders and say. "get back inside - don't come out otherwise you will be arrested/shot"
Thats how they've treated the Palestinians for decades so what's suitable treatment for one is suitable treatment for the other.......right?........ 🤔
im hoping you posted that because you hadn't really thoguht it through

Perhaps read it again……….
And if you take offence to the words then perhaps take it up with Stephen Kapos, an 88yr old holocaust survivor who recently discussed how the world would react if the tables were turned and the Jewish people were treated in a similar fashion to the Palestinians in Gaza/West Bank
Really good discussion with Tom Fletcher U.N. International Aid Chief where he discusses all the conflicts that need urgent attention, he also discusses the targeting of Red Cross and aid workers
"There has been widespread condemnation after an image of an Israeli soldier apparently hitting a statue of Jesus with a sledgehammer in southern Lebanon went viral."
Hmmm...
Not sure how this will go down with the fundamentalist, Trump supporting Christians in America?

It's all very innocent, you see his helmet had slipped forward over his eyes and he mistook the Jesus statue for an injured Palestinian teenager...

Perhaps its a hamas operative hiding inside a carefully constructed “Jesus” suit,
meanwhile the young generation of Palestinian children otherwise known as “potential Hamas operatives” are successfully blocked from attending their terrorist training camps. All in a days work for these brave settlers who receive funding from within this country

A third of the Lebanese are Christian.

I don't think they'll give a shit. They've been pretty indifferent to the occupation's effects on Christian Palestinians in Bethlehem, Ramallah and Jerusalem. If you don't care what happens to fellow Christians in the places where Jesus was born, died and resurrected... you're not going to be motivated by similar stuff elsewhere.
Interestingly, there are a bunch of Christian Lebanese and other Arab peoples living in Michigan and California. If they come out for the Dems as a result of this and similar war crimes, that could mean something. But probably it won't be electoral significant
It's an occupation. We'll see the usual ethnic cleansing so beloved of Netanyahu and co. The population that have been drive north can't return to their homes if their homes are now just piles of rubble
Cleansing of the terrain of Southern Lebanon is Israel's openly-announced policy.

The Israeli propaganda machine is being exposed and of course………the usual retort against media exposure is a cry of “antisemitism”

So what does taco Trump do when a Chinese tanker decides they are going to go just where they want
Or when Iran starts flirting missiles around the Gulf states in response to the blockade
In an entirely unpredictable missile strike on the UAE, Project Freedom lasted 10 minutes after the WH press conference yesterday.
Trump pauses Project Freedom one day after launch, citing progress in Iran talks
Shipowners unsurprised by reversal, with one calling it "another TACO"
Strait of Hormuz remains largely empty as passage rights become Tehran's bargaining chip
All eyes on whether Trump's May 14–15 summit with Xi yields any consensus on Iran

China telling 'them' to suck it up and reopen the strait. Would be fully if 'them' turned out to be the US and not Iran 😂
I thought Pete Hegseth was telling us all, only yesterday, that the greatest navy the world has ever seen was going to get the Straits open in no time, for all our benefits, freeing all those stranded ships?
What happened to that then? Surely they had this all worked out beforehand and weren't just making it up as they go along?
Watched Michael Clarkes update - over 1000 ships trapped inside the straits and as many waiting outside trying to get in. May be the US navy's total of 2 in 24/36 hours has made they now realise the difficulty of the task (finally) - and sinking/burning US navy or Commercial ships in the straits is not a good look for voters.
The Israeli propaganda machine is being exposed
While I have no doubt at all that Israel has a pretty sophisticated SM propaganda machine. Re-posting anything that has Owen Shroyer (used to be employed by Alex Jones on Infowars) content is the equivalent of asking folks to take a Trump Truth Social post at face value. He is a far right propagandist himself who has the very predictable viewpoints of a Christian nationalist and often anti-Semitic far right personalities on his podcast discussing Jewish conspiracy theories.
the greatest navy the world has ever seen was going to get the Straits open
Interestingly the US Navy cannot operate its Ohio class subs in the Straights easily (they can carry over 100 tomahawks so they'd be quite useful) because it's so shallow, noisy and crowded with commercial shipping... and Iran (AFAIK) still has operational smaller much more agile subs of it's own.
^, took you a while to catch up Nick,
Is there anything falsified in the actual report?, I had a look at other reporting on the issue and it appears to be entirely factual and a true representation of how the propaganda is used/disseminated by the IDF/israeli government
Its almost like of a bunch of obnoxious, pompous "business men" got the ladybird book of international relations and thought they'd do a practical. Grifters.

arent they all sunk now?

I couldn't give a single shit. You're giving air time to someone who has his own very clear reasons for posting the things he does. They don't align with yours (or anyone else with any critical thinking skills). Simple as that really. You wouldn't re-post anything from Tommy Robinson? Same thing.
arent they all sunk now?
TBH, I'd assume so, but at the same time I can't find any credible evidence either way. So I just don't know.

Made me smile
Which bit of "We're hiding under a mountain and couldn't care less" is he struggling to comprehend.
Trump is currently in China.
Probably trying to convince them to talk to Iran and get the straits open again.
Prediction - I suspect he is going to tell China, that the US won't interfere militarily if they make a move on Taiwan
Yep - thats very likely I think too.
Those in the know are saying it isn`t possible to sort out the issue regarding Taiwan and China within 2 days because of its complexity. But .. Trump and his like-minded idiots in his administration will happily betray Taiwan if Xi gets Iran to agree to opening the Strait ... Trump would likely agree to them having the Philippines too, then claim to have stopped 3 more wars .. Iran, Taiwan and the Philippines.
The USA is so dangerously vulnerable under Trump its bonkers
The latest attempt to make him go to Congress for permission to continue after 60 days has failed 50:49 in the Senate.
Several Republicans have voted against the war now, but one Dem has remained pro-war
Did anyone see the arcade machines placed at the national memorial?
There's an online version of the game here. You play Trump trying to win the war take the oil in Iran. Just don't spend too long burning Epstein files or fighting Iranian schoolgirls🤣

What???? Honestly how in the hell can he _not_ be going to them now? I know it 's a law and he has a bad rep for following that, but can't congress just stop the funding?
The Congressional Research Service (CRS) has published a report on U.S. Aircraft Combat Losses in Operation Epic Fury.
The report has missed several aircraft thought to have been destroyed, but it may be that they didn't have confirmed evidence

How does Congress not have access to this information? I can understand them not knowing exact Iranian figures, but their own? Surely ask the carrier captains or the base commanders.
"I counted them all out, and I counted them all back again. Well, mostly"
I can also understand them not publishing it if they do know, but not knowing seems odd
still just says of the F-15E that were involved in a friendly fire incident in March were shot down by Kuwaiti Air Defences, and haven't specified whether that was Kuwaiti CAP F-18 or Patriot. I wonder if they're trying to be diplomatic...
That list says the E3 was 'damaged' 🤣 Photos on the internet show the entire fuselage from the wing back, including the radar, is completely destroyed. That's not going to buff out.
The list is also missing at least 2 'little bird' helicopters destroyed during the pilot rescue.

It appears to be only open-sourced material,
Listed here are 42 fixed-wing or rotary-wing aircraft, including uncrewed aircraft (i.e., drones), reportedly lost or damaged in OEF, according to news reports and statements by DOD and U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM).
The MH-6 "Little Bird" helicopters that were sent to rescue downed aircrew have been missed as one example. As many as four were supposedly destroyed by their crews on site
Looks like there may be American strikes this weekend, trump missing his sons wedding waa a bit of a signal
Or maybe he just fancied going for a game of golf instead? I expect he cares as little for his son as he does for anyone else other than himself. He’s a sociopath. They don’t give a shit about anyone.
I think on Iran, the Trump ‘strategy’, such as it is, is to keep repeating that ‘we’ve won’, we’ve destroyed their Air Force, we’ve destroyed their navy and blah blah, blah….. then just hoping that somehow that will magically opens the Strait of Hormuz.
rumours of Houthis preparing to block gulf of aidan in response
might fill up the car this afternoon
Thought to myself that this has gone quiet recently.
trump now saying theres a peace deal......
TACO then
I expect he cares as little for his son as he does for anyone else other than himself. He’s a sociopath. They don’t give a shit about anyone.
To be fair his son seems to be taking the same approach to marriage as his dad (okay he hasnt buried an ex on the golf course to possibly claim tax exemptions but...)
Personally I tend towards first marriage lets celebrate but when its onto the nth iteration then maybe I can be arsed turning up.
trump now saying theres a peace deal......
Is it the best peace deal? They said sir please this is the best peace deal and Obama could never have achieved this biggest peace deal. They said sir the only thing bigger than this peace deal which is very big is the test you passed. They asked sir who is the president and I said I am the bigglest president.
All Trump will do is Ctrl + Z. Back to Obama's deal.
