In the Spirit of ’76, as a Canadian, I was highly visible at The Liberty Memorial Mall in Penn Valley Park and The Crown Center Hotel in Kansas City the whole time of the Republican National Convention. President Ford, Vice-President Rockefeller, their organizers and partisans were staying there.

Arriving in Kansas City after hitch hiking through some 45 States, the 1st place I went to was the Roman Catholic Archdiocese Office of the Archbishop. I was received by his Secretary, a very pleasant priest, and we talked for a long time in his office. Getting to the purpose of my visit, I asked him if there was any bed available in the entire Catholic Diocese  where I could rest my head for the duration? I was surprised when he told me all the beds were taken. “People from the Vatican are here for the Convention” he said. I had to wonder what Business the Vatican had, and who were they meeting away from the Public eye, at this American Republican Convention?

Having shoulder length hair and beard, he said, “I know where you belong” and he drove me to the Liberty Memorial Mall where all the action was. “You’re right” I said as I got out of his car.

The opening night of the Convention, the Youth International Party (Yippies) had set up a microphone on top of a school bus on the grass of Penn Valley Park with speakers that reverberated against the Crown Centre Hotel across the street.

It was wonderful to see hundreds, thousands of young people from all over America come to exercise their democratic rights. The only bigger crowd I was part of was at Rock concerts, never for any political demonstration. When I saw the yellow school bus and the huge crowd on the slope of Penn Valley Park, I climbed on top of the bus to stand in line with the others who wanted to say something over the incredibly powerful sound system reverberating against the windows of the Crown Centre Hotel.

Getting hold of the microphone, the words poured out in an extemporaneous expression of the ills and hopes of the world for an hour or longer. After a long time I became aware most of the other people on the roof of the bus were massaging my neck, shoulders or just rubbing my back. A one and only time in my life experience.

I happened to be speaking when Vice President Rockefeller and a retinue came out on a balcony of the hotel at eye level with me, and I addressed my words to him. He was not pleased as evidenced by his reaction to my words you see in the picture below.

Greeting him, I reminded him of a time earlier in his career I read about in newspapers, when he was in the blessed position to able give a friend a gift of $50,000 here, and another friend $100,000 there, and other friends even more as gifts. I reminded him the newspapers reported all his friends had powerful positions in regulatory agencies of government.

I explained there were hundreds of people on this side who had hitch hiked here from all over America, and many without cash, to show the American Spirit of Democratic Freedom and Peaceful Protest, and that we cared for America and its future. I then reminded him how wonderful it must be to be in a position to be so generous to friends.  I said these words, “Mr. Vice-President, would you be kind enough to donate a few hundred dollar’s worth of groceries to feed the poor among us while we are here?” That’s when he gave me the finger.

I’ve often wondered what Bob Dole and his friends are laughing at, hearing the same words that got the Vice-President so pissed off? I wrote him and sent a Tweet with the picture below to remind him and asking the question, but got no reply.

the finger

When I got off the bus and started walking through the large crowd I looked down on the grass and there was a $20 dollar bill. O Lucky Day! Thank you, Jesus! I decided to spend it having dinner in a Hotel Restaurant, but as soon as I entered the Lobby because of my visibility among the protesters, I was surrounded by Republican Party Security who physically lifted me up and threw me out.

The next Day the protest was moved from the Penn Valley Park to Washington Square facing the entrance to the Hotel. Police barricades were everywhere. Continuing the speech, I was so disappointed to see the Police stop and move the News Media away from filming.

Fortunately afterward, I met the Hotel Manager on the other side of the barricade, and he invited me into the Hotel and bought me breakfast. After an hour of conversation he said to me, “This is my Hotel, and I give you permission to go anywhere you want. If anyone causes you any problems, you just call me.” O Joy!

Walking softly and carrying my big stick, identifying them by name tag, I approached every Senator, Congressman, and Delegate talking in small groups within the thousands socializing in the Lobby of The Crown Centre Hotel.

My greeting was always the same, ¨Good Day!  My name is Ray and I would like to talk to you about some issues.¨ To my disappointment, walking through the constant crowds doing this for four days, not one Senator, Congressman or Delegate would talk with me as they dissolved and disappeared into the larger crowd. The event of this report happened the night of the fourth Day of that convention of silence.

In the afternoon, before Ford won the nomination over Reagan, since no Republican on the floor would talk with me up to that point, I changed tactics. A woman in California gave me a booklet having white stars in a blue background on the cover. In the Oval red center part of the cover, in old script, it read Constitution of The United States of America. I walked into the Lobby with the booklet covering my heart and the 3 of the jersey. Anyone coming toward me would only see 1 Constitution of The United States of America.

For the 1st Time, what Convention planners call a spontaneous demonstration happened. A crowd of Republicans gathered around me and different people asking at the same time, “Who are you” What are you doing? What is the significance of your actions?”

As I began to answer, Republican Party Security descended on the scene, telling me I had to leave the Hotel.

Asking why? I was told I couldn’t walk around carrying a club. In my mind, it was always a stick, but it gave new significance to the old saying, “walk softly and carry a big stick.” I thought, ‘My God, they have the power in this world, and they are so paranoid in their perceptions in guarding the power?’

I told the Republicans they had no power or authority to expel me from the Hotel. I have a Laissez-passer from the Hotel Manager. This was the first time since meeting 4 days earlier I had to call on him.

Arriving on the scene, the Hotel Manager told the Republican Whips I was allowed to stay. The Whips did their job though, and the growing crowd disappeared within the larger crowd in the Lobby. I continued walking softly, carrying my big stick with the star studded pamphlet covering my heart.

To my great surprise, on the restricted Mezzaine, stood President Ford himself, surrounded by a retinue of about 25 people. He was no more than about 15 feet above my head and I addressed him saying, “Good Day, Mr. Ford. How are you Today, Sir!

He acknowledge me with my shoulder length hair, beard, jersey and stick saying,” I’m fine, thank you. How are you?”

Lifting up the pamphlet toward him, I said, “I’m doing great, but I’d love to talk to you about the Constitution of these Un-United States” On those words, within a nanosecond, The President and his large retinue moved on in unison, almost like a single organism Amoeba.

That night, President Ford won the nomination over Ronald Reagan.  My image, standing at the podium of The President of The United States on a Secret Service restricted balcony in the Crown Centre Hotel, must have appeared revolutionary in that 1976 revolutionary year as thousands of witnesses in person, and ABC, CBS, & NBC broadcasting live, were looking up to that spot expecting The President of The United States to be standing there.

This is how it all unexpectedly happened to me.

As a Canadian I was caught up in the Republican’s enthusiasm and excitement. I was looking forward to seeing a President give a speech in person for the 1st TIME. I had only seen that on TV.

A band was playing Paul McCartney & Wings `’Let em in’  and I was having a grand happy and excited TIME, content being one in the crowd. At one point, a live TV camera with the red light on top signalling a live broadcast was about 15 feet behind me. I took off my jersey and for an instant, to all the viewers of that TV network, all they saw was my jersey filling their screens.

I don’t know what others were thinking listening to the Band, but I was thinking of the following verses;

Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
To HIM THAT OVERCOMES will I grant to SIT WITH ME IN MY THRONE, even as I ALSO OVERCAME, and AM set down with my Father in his throne.
He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

Revelation 3

Spotting me in the compressed crowd below the restricted balcony, the Hotel Manager called out to me to come up out of all those Republicans! Since everybody was pressed against everybody, that was no quick or easy feat.

Going up the stairs, he told me the Secret Service wanted to question me, escorting me past all the SS Security checkpoints. As a Canadian, to my great wonder and surprise, instead of questioning me in some anteroom, they led me to the Podium of The President of the United States with the Seal in view of the Republicans in the Lobby below and the TV Networks pre-cable, broadcasting live.

With my shoulder length hair, beard, wearing my trademark jersey, waving to the thousands of Republicans in person below,  the image is such a revolutionary contrast in The Spirit of ’76, to the establishment, and standing at that symbol of the Power and Authority, nothing like it has been seen before or since. And I didn’t plan it! It happened to me.

The Best Part is, the Secret Service have a record of that Time long buried in their Archives.

seal of the president

Standing eye to eye with the SS Agent for some time at the Podium of The President answering his questions, he eventually asked to my astonishment, ¨Are you Jesus Christ?¨ Having no illusions about that then or now, in a nanosecond answered “No.”

The Agent then asked, ¨Who are you then? A Prophet?¨ Not having entertained the thought before these exceptional circumstances I unexpectedly found myself in, and being temporarily dumbfounded, I was not as immediate and able to answer that question.

They wanted to hold my stick for ¨security reasons” as the President was expected to be there momentarily. The ABC, CBS & NBC archive video of that live broadcast is out there somewhere. Being pre-cable, there was nothing else to see on TV, and the Secret Service  have records of the scene.

I had an exceptional American experience in a Mountain in Montana before the Convention on the 4th of July. At a gathering of The Rainbow Family I overheard others speculating my stick was the stick Judah and Joseph

At the time I could not understand why the SS didn’t question me in some anteroom, instead of leading me to the podium of the President of The United States, in full view of all the people and the TV Networks broadcasting live.  I can only speculate and wonder if God arranged that as a sign or symbol of authority, since there is such a great cloud of witnesses, Jews, Christians and Muslims, all claiming to speak for Almighty God, Creator of Heaven and Earth and all that is in it.

Even after all these years I have no doubt if senior Republican Party leaders and younger Republicans who attended that Convention saw the picture today, they would have to admit after thinking on it, “Yes, I remember that guy.”

On September 13, 1976 The Kansas City Times recorded and reported my visit to the City and the Republican National Convention.

Kansas City Times, September 13, 1976 (2)

For those who took the Time to actually read the Historical Record, there is a controversial line that needs clarification. The article quotes me saying Jimmy Carter “is a liar, deceiver and false prophet.”

I did say that in the narrow context of his 1976 Election Campaign. I certainly don’t think that these days. I wrote to him 3 Times to explain the context but got no reply. Besides, Politicians will be loath to acknowledge all The Kansas City Times published September 13, 1976.

As a Canadian, I have been watching US Politics since Eisenhower, and Carter was the 1st Presidential Candidate I saw wearing his Christian Credentials on his sleeve politic-ing. At the same Time, he was promising to increase the US Military Budget.

I saw a fundamental conflict of interest in that situation re Almighty God, The Christ and the Bible.

It’s only 1 line, but it’s one of the most important lines in the Bible to consider in the Light of the Fact, the Most Christian America is the BIGGEST ARMS MERCHANT of any Nation to appear out of the History of This Earth.

‘Not by military force and not by physical strength, but by My spirit,’ says the Lord of Hosts. Zechariah 4

It seems fundamental to me, the True Believers of the Christian Faith should be at the forefront having a unified Voice, preparing the Way for The Christ in them, to fulfill the Biblical Prophecy at this particular crossroad in Time,

he shall judge between the nations and reprove many peoples, and they shall beat their swords into plow shares and their spears into pruning hooks; nation shall not lift the sword against nation, neither shall they learn war anymore.’ Isaiah 2

‘And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said to me, See you do it not: I am your fellow servant, and of your brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy. Revelation 19:10

The Kansas City Times record above has an exact Future Time Line Time made True, concerned Israel’s relations with the external Arab Nations starting with Egypt, as detailed below.  Democratic Israel developed close relationships with all the Dictatorial Arab regimes in the Middle East since then, from Egypt to Saudi Arabia, except for Iran.

Iran has more Jews free to practice their Religion than any other Nation in the Middle East outside of Israel.

As if to underscore  the September 13, 1976 Kansas City Times article above with the picture of my trademark jersey, The Oslo Accord was signed between Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin and Palestinian Leader Yasser Arafat on September 13, 1993. This was supposed to remove the last remaining roadblocks to Peace between Jews and Palestinians within the Occupied Territories.

Below is Israel’s Netanyahu boasting how he derailed the Oslo process, not the Palestinians. He was candid, not knowing he was being filmed.

“He came to town for the Republican National Convention and will stay until the election in November TO DO GOD’S BIDDING: To tell the world, from Kansas City, this country has been found wanting and its days are numbered […] He gestured toward a gleaming church dome. “The gold dome is the symbol of Babylon,” he said.” […] He wanted to bring to the Public’s attention an “idea being put out subtly and deceptively” by the government that we have to get prepared for a war with Russia”

That 1976 FUTURE is NOW with the Revelation of the details GENERALLY unfolding in the spirit of the letter.

The World is waking up to see Americans just may hasten “its days are numbered” part of the 1976 Public record and waits with bated breath. The Trump action of withdrawing from the Iran Nuclear Deal, and Waging an Economic War against the 83 MILLION People of Iran to destroy their Economy will speed that up. Trump upped the ante to Military Hostility when he murdered such a High Official of the Iranian government in the person of General Soleimani on January 3, 2020, setting the Tone and Tenor of all that came after in 2020.

This is in addition of Trump and the Republican Congress rescinding the few Regulations Obama put in place to prevent another Global Financial Collapse as happened in 2008. It’s not a question of IF but WHEN?

belshazzar1 Writing On The Wall

“And this is the writing that was written, MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN.

This is the interpretation of the thing:

MENE; God has numbered your kingdom, and finished it.

TEKEL; You are weighed in the balances, and are found wanting.

PERES; Your kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.”

Daniel 5

As you can see, “this country has been found wanting and its days are numbered” are the 1st two parts of the 3 part writing on the wall above.

The whole world saw The Writing on the Wall for the 1st TIME at the same TIME with the Global Financial Meltdown-Economic Pearl Harbour in September of 2008, even if the world has not recognized it as such. It records the king of Babylon put on a feast for 1000 of the ELITE of the kingdom,

“They drank wine and praised gods of gold, silver, copper, iron, wood, and stone.”
In other words, from THEN to NOW, ‘It’s the Economy, Stupid!’

The whole World saw The Writing on the Wall for the 1st Time at the same Time after 8 years of Tax Breaks for the rich while fighting 2 Foreign Wars on Borrowed money.

It wasn’t recognized as such, ignored, and the US and the World continued with it’s profligate ways without undertaking any meaningful reform. The rich at the top of our Pyramid System are getting richer, and the increasing numbers of poor at the bottom are getting poorer.

It can no longer be ignored with Covid-19, the last Domino not having fallen over yet!

The 3rd part of the Writing on the Wall tells of the decline of Ancient Babylon, the 1st Biblical model of the Nation that reached Imperial Military-Economic Superpower Status, and the rise of Persia.

Ancient Babylon is now Iraq, and ancient Persia is now Iran.

The US is the latest, greatest of all the Nations reaching Imperial Military-Economic Superpower Status in the 2600 year old Biblical Babylonian superstructure.

The TAIL struck the HEAD, invading Iraq in violation of International Law, causing the unravelling of the Earthly Babylonian superstructure/infrastructure, undermining the
Global Order as represented by the United Nations since WWII, and ushering in the Law of the Jungle to the Middle East and this World. It also paved the way for increased Iranian influence in their own region of this world where the US is the interloper.

The Iranian Revolution happened 29 months later in the 1976 KANSAS CITY TIMES Timeline.

All the chaos in the Middle East since then, including the carnage in Syria, is the consequence of the vain attempt to reverse that God ordained, repeat of History, as a SIGN of The TIMES for our Generations.

The article continues in quotation marks, ¨There are 30 months before the fate of the world will be sealed with EITHER Destruction OR the Universal Brotherhood of Man,¨ he said. ¨The 30 month figure concerned a Treaty between Israel and Egypt.¨

NOTE: This does not say Armageddon happens in 30 months from the article.

Not 29 or 31, but exactly 30 months later, in March 1979, history shows a Treaty between Israel and Egypt was signed. The Camp David Accord.  History shows talks broke down on the 12th day and no Treaty was to be signed. Begin and Sadat were leaving. It was on the 13th Day, as in the date of the Article and the picture accompanying it, an unexpected window of opportunity appeared and opened the way for the Treaty to be signed.

This signified the Universal Brotherhood part of the quote.

Book review: ‘Thirteen Days in September,’ on Camp David accords, by Lawrence Wright

March 26, 1979 Camp David Treaty

As to the destruction part of the statement? The Iranian Revolution happened a month before the signing of the Camp David Accord in 1979. With Trump murdering General Soleimani, the Senior Iranian government Official, it brings the Destruction in the 1976 Kansas City Times record much closer.

The TV Movie made in Kansas City, ‘The Day After’ it was destroyed in a Nuclear Holocaust appeared 7 years later. It could have been made in any other city.

I was probably the only human on earth, including THE KANSAS CITY TIMES reporters, to notice at the TIME of the appearance of the movie in November, 1983, it pauses at the exact same picture frame THE KANSAS CITY TIMES used in their November 2, follow up report 7 YEARS EARLIER.

At the 9 second mark, the Movie below pauses at the exact same picture frame you see above from ALL SOULS DAY, November 2, 1976  record in The Kansas City Times 7 years earlier, except I had nothing to do with the Movie or the Date and picture The Kansas City Times chose to publish in the Spirit of ’76.

What are the odds?

With the growing anti-Russian/Putin hysteria taking hold of the Political-Military-Intelligence Community in the US and the West, this world may be at the precipice of it actually happening, either by design or accident. These historical records are clear WARNING SIGNS for our TIME in our Generations.

This Public record and Marker of Time from 1976,  reporting specific Time related event for the Middle East, the Time Line of History confirmed the letter later. It also records, “and explained his own  mission as  “waging war  against the beast” – the  beast defined as  government of man and tyrants.” The new Presidential limousine called “the beast” is an aptly named confirming Spiritual “symbol.”

the beast of a limo

It’s taken all these years, but the whole world and America can now see its days are numbered if radical reform is not started soon in the People.

Ottawa Today, October 18, 1977

Obviously, as regards the mission, I was not talking of my own personal action other than being a messenger in the right place at the right time, but since this report is from the Revolutionary Spirit of ’76, it is only now the Revolutionary Spirit of ’11 is beginning to overturn the tyrants and government of man in the Middle East. This we can see. It will soon spread worldwide.

It would be tragic if the “little people” in America, compared to the Biblical term ‘kings of the earth,’ couldn’t relate to the “little people” in Afghanistan/Pakistan and other poorer Nations. Logic and Reality would identify the ‘kings of the earth’ Today being the Billionaires, Presidents, Prime Ministers, CEOs and other IDOLS of the People.

The bottom line is that they are people like the “little people” all over this earth, no matter what country, colour, language or religion, and it is becoming perfectly clear all the “little people” everywhere are demanding “regime change.”

Most Christian America is the most apostate of them all as to understanding and practising the reason Christ died for all humanity, so humanity would be lifted up from its current downward spiral, rushing headlong on the Road to Destruction.

The Bible says both good and evil would grow side by side until the time of the harvest. It’s time, and many more good people are needed to work in the vineyard to bring in a good harvest.

AFTERMATH – ISRAEL’S ACT OF WAR ON IRAN.


As a News Junkie, I read many reports and analysis by many paid MSM Professionals on the consequences of Israel’s April Fools Day 2024 ACT of WAR attacking the Sovereign Diplomatic Territory of Iran in Damascus in violation of another International Law.

The US West excuses and ignored it, already forgotten in the rapidly changing News Cycle. It’s like the 2023 Oscar winner is happening all the Time now, ‘Everything Everywhere All At Once.’

I came across Kit Klarenberg’s Blog recently, and she put it together better than all the paid Professionals. This is the re-post of her article,

Iran’s Israel Strike Reshapes West Asia Forever

https://www.kitklarenberg.com/p/irans-israel-strike-reshapes-west

This is what I wrote in her Blog,

Kit, this is the best read of the consequences and implications for the World, because of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood October 7, in the Year of Christ of the Common Era 2023.

Spiritually, it’s interesting so see what’s unfolding in the Missile Middle East since October 7.

The Jews really need the Saving Graces in the anticipated 1st appearance of Messiah.

At the same TIME, Christians are expecting the 2nd appearance of Messiah.

Muslims are anticipating the Hidden Madhdi, already secretly living among the People somewhere, to come forward and show himself.

Since those 3 groups of People ascribe their Religious Beginnings to the Relationship Abraham had with God who LIVES, before Jews, Christians or Muslims existed, this is quite the Ending or Beginning to see, unfolding these 4000 years later in the mostly nominally Christian, materialistic irreligious World.

The Powers and People take their Religion Deadly Serious in the Middle East, we ignore at our own peril.

No one is an island in Today’s World when our Common Humanity is on Trial because we can see the GAZA GENOCIDE unfolding in REAL TIME over there.

On April 13th, Iran, alongside Lebanon’s Hezbollah and Yemen’s AnsarAllah, executed Operation True Promise, a vast wave of drone, cruise and ballistic missile strikes on the Zionist entity, launched in retaliation to Tel Aviv’s criminal bombing of Tehran’s Damascus embassy less than two weeks earlier, which killed two Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) generals. As a result, history was made, and the world – in particular West Asia – will never be the same again.

Iran’s first ever strike on the entity, following decades of provocations, escalations, assassinations, incendiary threats, and determined lobbying for U.S.-led war against Tehran by Tel Aviv officials, the effort targeted airbases, Israeli Air Force intelligence HQ, and a constellation of air defense systems. The U.S., Britain, and France scrambled jets to help shoot the vast payload down – unsuccessfully – while Jordan controversially permitted Western powers to use its airspace for the purpose. The entity claimed a 99% interception rate.

However, extensive photo and video material shows many missiles hit their targets, and wrought much damage. In the process, Iran demonstrated to Tel Aviv and its Western backers a hitherto unknown ability to circumvent layer upon layer of protective measures, including top tier fighter jets, NATO-supplied air defense systems, and the much-vaunted Iron Dome. One by one, they largely failed in their duty, leading to the astonishing sight of Iranian missiles soaring unmolested over the Knesset.

This righteous scene no doubt sent untold chills scouring around Western and Israeli corridors of power, searching vainly for spines to run up. It also dispatched a palpable message – Tehran could, if it wished, have struck the Zionist legislature, but didn’t do so. For the time being, at least. The floor was now Tel Aviv’s, to decide whether – and how – to retaliate. A response came on April 19, in the form of pre-dawn drone sorties across Iran.

Initially framed by Western media as hugely impactful, in reality a small swarm of Israeli quadcopters attempted to breach Tehran’s air defenses, but ultimately couldn’t. An Iranian spokesperson subsequently referred to the effort as “failed and humiliating.” This characterization surely applies more widely to the pathetic state to which Tel Aviv has been reduced, following Operation True Promise’s seismic success. As we shall see, the Zionist entity now has little time remaining, and no good choices left to make.

‘New Equation’

Despite its astonishing optics, and unprecedented nature, some West Asian observers were disappointed that the attack on Israel wasn’t a decapitation. Such perspectives overlook the Islamic Republic’s longstanding commitment to caution. Devastation of Tehran’s Syrian embassy was without historic parallel, and clearly concerned with eliciting a major escalation, in order to drag the U.S. into total war. A measured, well-advertised show of strength deterred wider response, while signaling a major shift in Iranian policy towards the entity. IRGC commander Hossein Salami has said:

“We have decided to create a New Equation, and that is if from now on the Zionist regime attacks our interests, assets, personalities, and citizens, at any point we will attack against them.”

Those are fighting words, and Operation True Promise plainly demonstrated they can be backed with action. Iran has shown it can strike the entity directly from its own soil, its fleets of missiles and drones capable of traveling thousands of kilometers over both friendly and hostile airspace, separate timezones, and multiple countries. Along the way, Tehran will have gleaned an enormous amount of invaluable intelligence on the defensive capabilities, and vulnerabilities, not only of Israel, but the local Western infrastructure upon which its defenses depend.

Any future Iranian strike would make the most of whatever was learned on April 13th, and the data yield was likely enormous. Since Russia’s “Special Military Operation” began in February 2022, defense cooperation between Moscow and Tehran has reached extraordinary levels – and intensive learning and on-the-go refinement of battle strategy is core Russian military doctrine. As a nameless Ukrainian Army officer bitterly told Politico on April 3, Western weapons systems sent to Kiev “become redundant very quickly because they’re quickly countered by the Russians”:

“For example, we used Storm Shadow and SCALP cruise missiles [supplied by Britain and France] successfully – but just for a short time. The Russians are always studying. They don’t give us a second chance. And they’re successful in this.”

If there’s a next time too, Iran’s missile and drone fleet is likely to be considerably more sustained, playing out over several days, weeks, or even months, wave after wave, burst after burst. Estimates suggest around 300 separate projectiles fired at the entity during Operation True Promise. Largely unsuccessful attempts to repel the blitz by Tel Aviv alone cost $1.08 – 1.35 billion, according to an Israeli Occupation Force (IOF) general.

“One Arrow missile used to intercept an Iranian ballistic missile costs $3.5 million, while the cost of one David Sling missile is $1 million, in addition to the sorties of aircraft that participated in intercepting the Iranian drones,” they told local media. Meanwhile, an Israeli think tank researcher calculates the costs “were enormous”, comparable to what Israel spent during the entire 1973 Arab/Israeli war, which lasted almost three weeks.

Those sums were spent on missile interceptors, missiles, jet fuel, and other military equipment and infrastructure. It is uncertain how much Iran spent on the Operation, but it is undoubtedly a great many orders of magnitude less. Some sources have suggested $30 million, which could well be accurate. This massive cost discrepancy is a very, very grave issue for the entity, as the U.S. can attest, given its embarrassing experiences attempting – and completely failing – to end AnsarAllah’s anti-genocide blockade of the Red Sea.

Almost immediately, Politico reported that the Pentagon was aghast that it was squandering missiles costing millions to shoot down $2,000 AnsarAllah drones. “That quickly becomes a problem because the most benefit, even if we do shoot down their incoming missiles and drones, is in their favor,” a CIA officer lamented. “We, the U.S., need to start looking at systems that can defeat these that are more in line with the costs they are expending to attack us.”

An AnsarAllah freedom fighter holds a sign declaring, “Oi, Zionist! My sea is your grave!”

‘Israel Goes Under’

There is no sign publicly yet of Washington having rectified this concern, which may account for why US officials at the start of April offered AnsarAllah a sweeping offer of total surrender in return for ending the Red Sea blockade, which was rejected. But in the event of a subsequent Iranian strike on Tel Aviv, Tehran’s Shahed drones will not be used to deter shipping, but tie up, smoke out, and exhaust the entity’s air defenses.

This tactic was used to significant effect on April 13th, as it has been by Russia since its airstrikes on critical Ukrainian infrastructure began in late 2022. Now, Kiev is on the verge of being de-electrified, which will cause a battlefield and population displacement, with potentially devastating knock-on effects on neighboring countries, and states trying to keep Kiev’s lights on. It seems safe to say neither Israel nor its Western allies could sustain a serious defense to a protracted assault by Tehran, economically or materially.

That conclusion is supported by an April 22nd Wall Street Journal report, which revealed the Biden administration was shocked at the scale of Iran’s barrage. It “matched worst-case scenarios” outlined by U.S. intelligence and the Pentagon, an unnamed senior official despairing, “this was on the high end…of what we were anticipating.” White House Situation Room attendees on the day allegedly feared Israel and its allies would not be able to repel the assault. And they couldn’t.

On top of a mass crime against humanity amounting to a 21st century Holocaust, the entity’s genocide in Gaza has been utterly destructive to its own economy. A Financial Times investigation of November 6th 2023 documented how the assault has ravaged personal finances, job markets, businesses, industries, and the Israeli government itself. “Thousands” of companies were teetering on the brink of collapse, with entire sectors plunged into an unprecedented crisis. One in three businesses had either shuttered or were operating at 20 percent capacity.

The race to escape Israel

One can imagine how much worse things have gotten in the six months since, and Israel isn’t yet embroiled in an all-out war. An extended period of mass strikes from Iran, AnsarAllah and Hezbollah could completely paralyzse the entity economically, render entire areas of the entity uninhabitable – or, at least, uninhabited – destroy infrastructure, and much more. Among the infrastructure in Tehran’s crosshairs could well be the Dimona nuclear power plant, which would unleash deadly chaos on a grand scale.

Resultantly, the entity’s “Samson Option”, under which it is committed to launch a mass nuclear strike if its existence is threatened, should no longer be taken very seriously. Israeli military theorist Martin van Creveld once boasted, “we have the capability to take the world down with us, and I can assure you that will happen before Israel goes under.” But Tehran’s hypersonic missile capabilities are in every way an effective counter-deterrent. They could even deliver a nuclear, or chemical/biological payload of their own.

‘Whoever Moves’

The Zionist entity’s Iranian drubbing is further exacerbated by its attempt to crush Hamas being an absolute disaster, in every conceivable way. The fiasco’s consequences are and will remain wide-ranging and grave, to the extent of fatal. This may account for Netanyahu’s flailing bid to draw Tehran into all-out war. After all, the scale of Israeli Occupation Forces’ defeat is such that in an absolutely scathing op-ed for Haaretz on April 11th, Zionist “journalist” Chaim Levinson lamented:

“We’ve lost. Truth must be told…It’s unpleasant to say, but we may not be able to safety [sic] return to Israel’s northern border…No cabinet minister will restore our sense of personal security. Every Iranian threat will make us tremble. Our international standing was dealt a beating. Our leadership’s weakness was revealed to the outside. For years we managed to fool them into thinking we were a strong country, a wise people and a powerful army. In truth, we’re a shtetl with an airforce, and that’s on the condition it’s awakened in time.”

Even the Western media, which since the genocide began has been at best silent and at worst complicit – and much more active in the latter sphere than the former – has acknowledged Tel Aviv’s battlefield cataclysm. The Economist, a nakedly Zionist publication that has whitewashed, diminished, or outright justified every conceivable crime committed by the IOF, has condemned the Forces’ “military and moral failures”, and how “its generals botched the strategy, and discipline among troops has broken down”:

“[Israel is] accused of two catastrophic failures. First, it has not achieved its military objectives in Gaza. Second, it has acted immorally and broken the laws of war. The implications for both the IDF and Israel are profound…Hamas fighters are still ambushing Israeli forces throughout Gaza and the group is reasserting itself in areas the IDF has left…Accusations that Israel has broken the laws of war are plausible.”

An Israeli Occupation Force psychopath

The Economist went on to slam a “lack of enforcement” of already virtually non-existent “rules of engagement” under which the IOF operate. A “veteran reserve officer” was quoted as saying commanders could arbitrarily “decide that whoever moves in his sector is a terrorist or that buildings should be destroyed.” A sapper in another unit admitted, “the only limit to the number of buildings we blew up was the time we had inside Gaza”:

“Soldiers have filmed themselves vandalising Palestinian property and, in some cases, put those videos online. On February 20 the IDF’s chief of staff published a public letter to all soldiers warning them to use force only where necessary, ‘to distinguish between a terrorist and who is not, not to take anything which isn’t ours – a souvenir or weaponry – and not to film vengeance videos.’ Four months into the war, this was too little, too late.”

That The Economist printed such things at all reflects how far the Zionist entity has fallen since October 7th. Now, it is a global pariah, viscerally loathed by the overwhelming majority of the world’s citizenry. Its once-vaunted military is not feared by adversaries, and their ability to unilaterally strike Muslim countries with total impunity, and no comebacks, is over. Tel Aviv’s claim to “defense” and security primacy, upon which much of its exports were successfully marketed for decades, has been amply demonstrated to be bogus.

Meanwhile, the entity has suffered population collapse, with concomitant mass brain drain and workforce freefall as settlers flee or get conscripted. Demand for mental health services has reached all-time highs, as the trauma of perpetrating genocide, and living under the daily threat of attack as Palestinians have since 1948, ravages soldiers and civilians alike. But scores of psychiatrists have relocated elsewhere due to stressful workloads, and likely won’t return. Such are the foundational flaws of a settler colonial state.

For many, these developments may be little consolation, coming as they do off the back of thousands of murdered and mutilated Palestinian children. Yet, they are unambiguous indicators that the Zionist entity is on the brink of extinction, which wasn’t the case before Hamas breached Gaza’s concentration camp walls on October 7th 2023. Palestine is now closer to being free than at any point since Israel’s creation. And there is no going back to “normal”.

Refaat Alareer

Time is now and forever on the side of the indefatigable, undefeated Resistance – so too justice, and virtue. We should never forget the immortal, galvanising words of Palestinian poet Refaat Alareer, slain in cold blood by a targeted IOF airstrike on December 6th 2023:

“If I must die, let it bring hope.”

It’s my writing below the line, not Kit’s

Bear in mind, now that Israel and Iran attacked each other’s Sovereign Territory having the potential to set the Missile Middle East and OUR Material World on Fire, it is still only a TRUCE for NOW. Unexpected, unforeseen circumstances could break the TRUCE in an instant incident.

Remember Ukraine! Minsk II in 2015 gave the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) the Responsibility to monitor all TRUCE violations between the Ukraine government and the majority Russian speaking Ukrainians closest to Russia resisting the 2014 Coup/Regime change of the Democratically Elected Russian friendly government they voted for.

Since the 2014 installation of an anti-Russian government, over 14,000 Russian speaking Ukrainian Civilians were killed by the Ukraine government. From 2015 until 2022 there were always TRUCE violations in the uncivil-civil WAR.

In the 10 days before February 24, 2022, TRUCE violations shot up to 2000 EVERY DAY that didn’t get much reporting in the US West MSM. That reality PROVOKED Russia’s SMO to stop it!

ISRAEL’S APRIL FOOLS DAY


NOTE: This was posted Saturday morning, before Iran retaliated in a sublimely measured and effective way later in the Day, to Israel’s Act of WAR against Iran on April Fools Day 2024

It’s hard to make sense of Israel’s Massacre and blatant Ethnic cleansing of Palestinians from their Homes in Gaza the World can see if not Israelis.

Israel did 2 stupid things on April Fools Day 2024, escalating the World’s horror of Israeli behaviour, as if Israel deliberately wants to turn the World against it so it could take even more drastic measures in Gaza, the Middle East and the World!

The 1st stupid thing Israel did on ALL FOOLS DAY April 1, 2024 was to deliberately target the World Central Kitchen convoy delivering the insufficient aid reaching besieged Gaza. If only Palestinians were killed, most probably it wouldn’t have been hyped like it was by the Global Media, but white Europeans were killed, and that changed everything! The World was finally outraged!

To keep what is unfolding in the ultra-Religious Middle East in perspective, People must be aware the Old Testament Jewish Establishment Religion became the Israeli government under Netanyahu in January 2023 whose sole/soul goal is to establish on the ground in the West Bank and Gaza, the Likud Party platform which expressly says, “between the Sea and the Jordan there will only be Israeli sovereignty.”

One also has to bear in mind Nuclear armed Israel Today, is a recreation from the Jewish Old Testament some 2700 years ago. For them, the Old Testament trumps Today’s International Law, whether we in the irreligious US West likes it or not, deluding ourselves into thinking it can’t affect MY Future Plans and Goals.

The United Nations Secretary-General said the plain obvious TRUTH, “October 7 didn’t happen in a vacuum” but Israel, in it’s WAR Propaganda where TRUTH is still the 1st casualty of War, wants the World to believe the 17 year Israeli siege and control of Gaza had no influence that led to October 7.

The 2nd stupid thing Israel did on April 1 Fools Day 2024 was to effectively expand the Gaza Massacre with it’s deliberate ESCALATION of the War by Israel’s ACT OF WAR attacking Iran’s Sovereign Diplomatic Mission in Damascus in a gross VIOLATION of International LAW the US West still will not recognize and hype as Israel has drawn in the US into backing Israel’s aggression directly to Iran without conditions.

2024_Iranian_consulate_airstrike_in_DamascusIsrael attacks Iran consulate

This is very interesting to read in The Jerusalem Post!

“The situation is tense on all levels of the government and the IDF. On the one hand, the general assessment is that Iran does not want an all-out war and it is with that assessment that the IDF reportedly came to the security cabinet when recommending that missiles be fired at a building in Damascus to kill Iranian General Mohammad Reza Zahedi.”

There’s no discussion of the FACT, the Israeli attack on Iranian Sovereign Diplomatic Territory in Damascus is in FACT, an Israeli Declaration of WAR on IRAN and a gross violation of International Law.

Israel can get away with consistently violating International Law and getting a free get out of Jail pass since 1967 when the US World KNEW Israeli Settlements in OCCUPIED PALESTINE were a violation of the Real International Law and said don’t do it, but did nothing to stop it.

With all the expert panels, there’s no talk on CNN & MSNBC how dangerous that Israeli ESCALATION in violation of International Law is for the World. With that Israeli ACT OF WAR, Israel just put the World on Notice: EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED!

ARMAGEDDON is on the WAY if the People don’t wake up before that END is too late to stop!

Israel and the US already told Iran if they retaliate against Israel’s ACT of WAR against Iran, together they will retaliate against Iran-again! NO ONE IN THIS WORLD ANYWHERE WILL ESCAPE THE CONSEQUENCES!

https://www.jpost.com/opinion/article-796593?

The Israeli Illegal action warned the World: EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED!

In a hyper Religious State like Israel, how would the IDF react when Netanyahu cites a 3000 year old Bible verse saying, “YOU must remember what Amalek has done to you, says our Holy Bible equating present Day Palestinians as the descendants of those Amaleks 3000 years ago? They would kill without mercy because Netanyahu told them it’s God’s Will! Every Palestinian would be expendable.

Now, go, and you shall smite Amalek, and you shall utterly destroy all that is his, and you shall not have pity on him: and you shall slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and donkey.’ ” 1 Samuel 15:3

That’s exactly what the World sees Israel is doing in Gaza in REAL TIME these 3000 years later.

If that wasn’t Religious enough in Israel here is a Jewish Rabbi telling Israeli Troops, “We must kill them all. Not only those who take up arms against us, it is clear that we must also kill their women and children. This is the generation that wants to kill us in the future, and it is women who give birth to these children.” https://twitter.com/MyLordBebo/status/1766757419231609031

Related insights, ‘It’s a crucible of human misery, this tented existence that spills out of shelters, blankets sidewalks, and covers any inch of empty space in Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip.

“They’ve reduced us to the way the world wants to see us,” one of my Gazan companions comments to me. “Miserable, begging, and in tents.”

This is madness, I think to myself, staring out the car window. We’re barely moving every few minutes through this crush of people, donkey carts, and aid trucks. Ambulance sirens wail, drones buzz above head, and people yell and shout.

It’s the beginning of April, six months into the Gaza war. Rafah’s population has swelled from around 275,000 to, by some estimates, 1.4 million as Gazans were forced to flee their homes in other parts of the strip.

I lock eyes with those of a mother, her infant passed out on her shoulder. She gives me a weak smile. I see two teenage girls hanging off the back of a donkey cart, giggling at each other, and I am relieved—relieved that I caught that moment in the middle of this sea of human sorrow. People look like ghosts but are haunted by all those they have lost.

It’s nearing the end of the holy month of Ramadan, during which Muslims around the world fast from sunrise to sundown. Iftar meals traditionally bring families and friends together to break their fast.

In the Hebrew Bible, Moloch is presented as a foreign deity who was at times illegitimately given a place in Israel’s worship as a result of the syncretistic policies of certain apostate kings. The laws given to Moses by God expressly forbade the Jews to do what was done in Egypt or in Canaan. Moloch is associated in biblical sources with the practice of child sacrifice. The name derives from combining the consonants of the Hebrew melech (“king”) with the vowels of boshet (“shame”), the latter often being used in the Old Testament as a variant name for the popular god Baal (“Lord”)

It’s obvious to those with the eyes to see, Israel lifts up Amalek justifying the killing of all Palestinians, but in reality by killing so many children in Gaza, Israel is in effect, worshipping Moloch.

BLESSED ARE THE PEACE MAKERS FOR THEY SHALL BE CALLED THE CHILDREN OF GOD

This IDF Soldier fought in Gaza and with what he saw and experienced, now he has turned against the Occupation and Genocide!

WAR CRIMES WE SEE AND SAY NOTHING


Abby Martin Debunking Israel’s ‘Human Shield’ Defense in Gaza Massacre

I have noticed since the US-Israeli Massacre of the People of Gaza started, Israel has systematically destroyed the Hospitals and Health Care in Gaza. The Israelis always tell us Gaza’s Hospitals have Hamas terrorists operating in there, not Doctors, and so far it’s just accepted without question because Israeli says it in WAR Propaganda. TRUTH is still the 1st casualty of WAR in demonizing ‘the enemy’ or covering up WAR CRIMES

Israeli spokespeople always assure us, Israel takes extreme care to avoid civilian Causalities. They can say it 1000 times, but my eyes aren’t lying from what I see on TV, the Israelis are.

The reasoning is very simple! If the 30,000 + US bombs Israel dropped on Gaza since October 8, an area NO BIGGER that Greater Philadelphia, don’t KILL INSTANTLY, not including those buried under the rubble from those US-Israeli bombs, then without any functioning Hospitals or Health Care, many, many, many more Palestinians will die of their untreated wounds over a longer period of time living in the rubble with No Escape but for our COMMON HUMANITY.

That is ON TRIAL these Days seeing the EVIL brutality in Gaza which is not SELF-Defence, but the brutal Massacre of defenceless WOMEN and CHILDREN.

‘And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things say he that is holy, he that is true, he that has the key of David, he that opens, and no man shuts, and shuts and no man opens.

I know your works: behold, I have set before you an open door, and no man can shut it: for you have a little strength, and have kept my word, and have not denied my name.

Behold, I will make them of the Synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you. Because you have kept the word of my patience, I also will keep you from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, TO TRY THEM that dwell upon the earth. Revelation of Jesus Christ 3:7-10

WE COLLECTIVELY, the HUMAN SPECIES, without acting on any NOTION of COMMON HUMANITY with the People of Gaza, become complicit with our silence and there could be Hell to pay for all of us down the Road.

Leonard Cohen, in his song ‘The Future’ released in 1992 was prescient. The FUTURE he saw 32 years ago in the PAST is NOW!

Anyone with eyes wide open can see the Israeli operation just ended to get Hamas out of what Israel calls their place of operating, the last big Hospital operating in Gaza, Israel just completely destroyed it so that there was no distinction in Israeli eyes between Civilians and Hamas.

To my mind, reading the article and seeing the pictures, is Israeli EVIL made manifest to the World. so there can be no doubt!!!

This was Israel demolishing the last place where Doctors operated from, not Hamas, and now they can’t even do that!

‘No life here’: Israel’s army withdraws from Gaza’s al-Shifa Hospital’

Witnesses say hundreds of bodies were found inside al-Shifa Medical Complex and outside in the surrounding streets.

Israel has withdrawn its forces from Gaza’s al-Shifa Hospital following a two-week operation, leaving behind scenes of devastation.

The Israeli military confirmed the sudden pullback on Monday, saying it had completed operational activity in the area of the hospital and claiming to have killed and captured numerous Hamas fighters. Witnesses report a swath of death and destruction at the medical complex, where a large number of displaced Palestinians were sheltering.

“Troops have completed precise operational activity in the area of the Shifa Hospital and exited the area,” the Israeli military said. Despite the LIE the Israeli military said, looking at the result of the Israeli operation, “IT WAS NOT PRECISE” in any way.

It is the picture of Israel totally demolishing the WHOLE HOSPITAL in SELF-DEFENCE!

It is an OBVIOUS WAR CRIME and the POWERS in the US West do nothing as Israel escapes accountability with impunity!

April 13 Just came across this other perspective of what this article is about. It is sad and tragic what Israel did in the BLIND HATREDS OF WAR. Reading it rings True to me. What do you think?
