It’s an Old Adage, ‘TRUTH is the 1st CASUALTY of WAR’ and yet these words attributed to Christ Jesus the Jew, are dismissed out of hand in this Time of the Revelation of Jesus Christ in the nominally Christian Nations.
[9] I know your works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but you are rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan. Revelation 2
[9] 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 3
There is no excuse! Our EYES have seen the Death, Destruction, Devastation and Demolition Israel has brought to Gaza with US jet fighters, US bombers and bombs, US Apache Attack helicopters, tanks, artillery and BULLdozers against the innocent women and Children of Gaza having no defence against Israel’s self-defence of kill them all!.
What else could be expected when the President of Israel essentially said there is little difference between Hamas and Palestinians in Gaza?
UNRWA Chief Accuses Israel of Torturing Staff as US Backs Ban on Agency at World Court
Nearly 300 UNRWA workers have been killed in Israeli attacks since October 2023, and dozens of other agency staffers have alleged torture during Israel Defense Forces detention.
As the International Court of Justice this week weighs an Israeli ban on a United Nations agency that provides lifesaving aid in Gaza, the program’s leader called out attacks on its workers while the United States defended Israel—the recipient of billions of dollars in U.S. military assistance.
The ICJ is holding a week of hearings in The Hague, Netherlands following the U.N. General Assembly’s December passage of a Norwegian-led resolution asking the tribunal, which is also known as the World Court, for an advisory opinion on Israel’s legal obligation to “ensure and facilitate the unhindered provision of urgently needed supplies essential to the survival of the Palestinian civilian population.”
Among the 38 nations and three regional blocs scheduled to address the 15 ICJ judges, only the United States and Hungary have so far defended Israel, whose forces have killed nearly 300 United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) workers during their nearly 19-month annihilation of Gaza.
“An occupational power retains a margin of appreciation concerning which relief schemes to permit,” U.S. State Department legal adviser Joshua Simmons argued before the court Wednesday, referring to Israel’s 58-year occupation of Palestine, which the ICJ ruled an illegal form of apartheid in a June 2024 advisory opinion.
“Even if an organization offering relief is an impartial humanitarian organization, and even if it is a major actor, occupation law does not compel an occupational power to allow and facilitate that specific actor’s relief operations,” Simmons continued, noting “serious concerns about UNRWA’s impartiality, including information that Hamas has used UNRWA facilities and that UNRWA staff participated in the October 7th terrorist attack against Israel” in 2023.
“Given these concerns, it is clear that Israel has no obligation to permit UNRWA specifically to provide humanitarian assistance,” Simmons added. “UNRWA is not the only option for providing humanitarian assistance in Gaza.”
In what UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini described at the time as an act of “reverse due process,” the agency fired nine employees in February 2024 following Israeli allegations that they were involved in the Hamas-led attack on Israel in which more than 1,100 Israelis were killed and 251 Israeli and foreign survivors were kidnapped.
Lazzarini admitted to terminating the staffers without due process or an adequate investigation of Israel’s claims. A subsequent probe by the U.N. Office of Oversight Services “was not able to independently authenticate information used by Israel to support the allegations.”
On Tuesday, Lazzarini reminded the world that “over 50 UNRWA staff—among them teachers, doctors, social workers—have been detained and abused” by Israeli forces since October 2023.
“They have been treated in the most shocking and inhumane way,” he continued. “They reported being beaten up and used as human shields. They were subjected to sleep deprivation, humiliation, threats of harm to them and their families, and attacks by dogs. Many were subjected to forced confessions.”
Those forced confessions spurred numerous nations including the United States to cut off funding to UNRWA. Almost all of the countries have since restored funding as Israel’s claims have been debunked or questioned over a lack of evidence.
The U.S.—which has not restored funding for UNRWA—earlier this week abandoned its long-standing position that the body is immune from lawsuits, opening the door for cases by October 7 survivors and victims’ relatives stemming from dubious claims of agency involvement in the attack.
In addition to accusing Israeli troops of torturing its staffers, UNRWA has also documented tortures allegedly suffered by Palestinians imprisoned by Israel, including interrupted drowning—also known as waterboarding—being shot in the knees with nail guns, sexual abuse of both men and women, and being sodomized with electric batons. The Israel Defense Forces is investigating dozens of in-custody deaths, many of them at the notorious Sde Teiman base in the Negev Desert.
While Israel’s physical assault on Gaza has killed hundreds of UNRWA workers, its diplomatic war on the U.N. has seen the agency banned from operating in Palestine and U.N. Secretary-General António Guterres declared “persona non grata” in Israel after he included Israel on his 2024 “list of shame” of countries and armed groups that kill and injure children during wartime.
The U.S.-backed 572-day war waged by the far-right government of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu—who is a fugitive from the International Criminal Court—has left more than 184,000 Palestinians dead, maimed, or missing in Gaza, according to the Gaza Health Ministry. Nearly all of the embattled enclave’s more than 2 million people have been forcibly displaced and Israel’s “complete siege” of the coastal strip has fueled widespread starvation and illness.
This week’s ICJ hearing comes amid the tribunal’s ongoing genocide case against Israel, which was brought by South Africa and is backed by dozens of nations either individually or via regional blocs. The court has issued three provisional orders in the case, all of which Israel has been accused of flouting.
Responding to the U.S. intervention in this week’s ICJ hearings, Palestinian Ambassador to the Netherlands Ammar Hijazi told Middle East Eye that “everybody knows that Israel is using humanitarian aid as a weapon of war and is starving the population in Gaza because of that.”
U.N. agencies and international humanitarian groups have warned in recent days of the imminent risk of renewed famine in Gaza as food stocks run out.
“The U.S. intervention is very narrow in its scope, when it highlights the rights of an occupying power but ignores the so many layers of duties of that occupying power that Israel is in violation of,” Hijazi added.
Among the countries defending UNRWA during Wednesday’s ICJ session were Indonesia and Russia, which is currently waging a war against Ukraine. Indonesian Foreign Minister Sugiono affirmed “the Palestinian people’s right to self-determination,” while Maksim Musikhin, legal director of Russia’s Foreign Ministry, argued that “international law should be respected by Israel” and that UNRWA deserves a Nobel Peace Prize.
On January 31, 1975, at the age of 31, I walked away from a lucrative career as National Marketing Representative, Mining Division, Dominion Engineering Works Ltd., a prominent Montreal-based company. The job, which I had taken with high hopes, turned out to be a far cry from what I had envisioned.
I thought I was being hired to travel coast to coast in Canada, all expenses paid, selling very expensive ball mills costing in the $100s of thousands in ’74 dollars to mining industries. Instead, I found myself confined to a desk, preparing sales proposals and production schedules. The realization that Canadian and American companies were outsourcing labor to third-world countries for excess profit—leaving workers here jobless—left me disillusioned. I quit without a backup plan, unaware that the next day would mark the most profound turning point of my life.
On February 1, 1975, the veil lifted. I experienced a spiritual awakening that redefined my existence. In an instant, I became acutely aware of God’s presence within me—a truth echoed in both the Old and New Testaments. This moment of divine connection was not just a personal revelation; it was a call to a higher purpose. Over the next 36 years, I grappled with this newfound reality, eventually sharing my story in a blog post titled “Day of Awakening – David vs Goliath vs Armageddon.“ Today, I revisit that journey, reflecting on its enduring significance in a world still grappling with greed, inequality, and spiritual blindness. That day, I was in high spirits. I was finalizing the deal that just by Time and Chance dropped out of the sky, to take possession of a dream apartment—a five-room space beautifully decorated by a French Canadian artist, complete with artwork and furnishings, all for going for $1,000. The rent was just $69 a month, plus utilities. It was a steal, and I was eager to make it my own. It was right in the heart of downtown Montreal on Hotel de Ville St. near Sherbrooke & St. Laurent, the dividing line between East and West. A 1 or 2 bedroom apartment on that Gentrified block in Montreal costs between $1700-$2300 Today.
I arrived with a wealthy Jewish friend to seal the deal. After handling the business, we got into an intense discussion about society, morality, politics, and religion—the human condition, life and death, war and peace on Earth. As I sat back, listening to their passionate debate, something extraordinary happened. At a certain point, it was as if a veil was lifted from my eyes. With what felt like the sound of rushing water, I was overcome with an undeniable realization: God! You’re alive! You exist! You really exist! In that moment, I came alive to God—or perhaps God came alive to me. It was a spiritual awakening, a connection to another dimension that I had never before experienced. I said nothing to the others—they didn’t have the same experience.
Later that evening, still processing the profound change within me, I met with another group of friends. Among them was an American artist avoiding the draft I asked three months earlier to create a portrait of me to encourage him, paying a deposit. When he unveiled the finished piece, I was stunned. It was no ordinary portrait. Instead, it was a symbolic masterpiece: a headless body standing tall, with a shield and a slingshot, standing in front of a car at the edge of a cliff, its license plate marked with a single letter—“D.”
The original portrait was done in pencil and larger than this copy of a copy of the original size drawing, both copies distributed on The Sparks Street Mall with a collage of scriptures with the header, PUBLIC NOTICE The original was stolen during a break and enter of my apartment in Ottawa. I added the Canadian Coat of Arms and the colour in the green arrow pointing up and the red light.
No one in the room knew about my spiritual awakening earlier that day. As I studied the drawing, I joked, “Dave, that’s a jock-looking image. I wish my body looked that good.” Pointing to the shield, I asked, “Is that a cowboy hat?” He replied, “No. It’s a shield and a slingshot. You know, like David and Goliath.” His words struck me like a thunderclap. David and Goliath. Here I was, hours after my awakening, holding a portrait that seemed to mirror the very themes now stirring within me.
The headless body symbolized humanity without God—a body that cannot stand on its own. The car at the cliff represented the global economy, teetering on the edge of collapse. The “D” on the license plate, when I asked Dave if it was his signature was met with a cryptic response: “It could be Death. It could be Divinity. I have no idea.” The timing was uncanny. It was as if God was speaking to me through the artist’s hand, using symbols to affirm the path ahead.
That night, alone in my apartment, I was overwhelmed with peace, joy, and gratitude. Tears streamed down my face as I thought, God, I don’t know what you’re doing with me, but whatever it is, keep doing it. I love it! I love you! At that exact moment, a radio broadcast began with the words, “Now that you’re a Christian, your work is just beginning.” From that day forward, I began a deep communion with God and Christ within me. Though I didn’t fully understand what was happening, I knew it was real. But my life was forever changed. It was a profound, visceral knowing. God is real. God is alive. And God is in me.
This awakening was not something I sought or expected. I had spent no time searching for God in my live, thoughts or actions. Yet, in that moment, I was born anew—not of flesh, but of the Spirit, as described in John 1:13. It was a clear demarcation in my life: BC (Before Christ) and AD (Anno Domini). From that day forward, I began a journey of communion with God, learning to live not by the will of man, but by the will of the Spirit.
The day of my spiritual awakening—February 1, 1975—was not just a personal turning point; it was a microcosm of the larger battle we face as a global community. The portrait I received that night, with its headless body, shield, slingshot, and car at the edge of a cliff, was a prophetic image of the world we live in today. The headless body symbolizes a humanity adrift, disconnected from its spiritual source. The car at the cliff represents a global system teetering on the brink of collapse. And the slingshot? It’s a reminder that even the smallest among us, armed with faith and courage, can confront the giants of our age.
Those giants are more visible now than ever. The spectre of World War III looms large in the U.S. war with Russia over Ukraine, concurrent with the Middle East on the path to Armageddon—aka the Battle of the Great Day of God Almighty—shaping up between Jewish Israel, Christian America, and the Islamic nations. Escalating tensions between global powers, the rise of militarism, the erosion of moral values, and the unchecked greed of the few at the expense of the many are all signs of a world in crisis. Yet, as my awakening taught me, these challenges are not merely political or economic—they are spiritual. The battle we face is not just against flesh and blood, but against the forces of division, destruction, and despair.
In the biblical story of David and Goliath, David’s victory was not just a triumph of skill or strategy; it was a testament to his faith in God. Today, we are called to embody that same faith. Each of us, in our own way, has a role to play in confronting the giants of our time. Whether through art, activism, prayer, or simply living a life of integrity and compassion, we can be instruments of divine justice in a broken world.
The concept of Armageddon is often associated with catastrophic conflict, but it also represents a moment of reckoning—a time when the forces of good and evil come to a head. For me, the question is not whether we will face these challenges, but how we will respond to them. Will we succumb to fear and despair, or will we rise to the occasion, trusting in the power of faith and the promise of redemption?
My journey since that day of awakening has been one of learning to see the world through spiritual eyes. It’s about recognizing that the battles we face are not just physical or political, but spiritual. The forces of greed, division, and destruction are real, but so too is the power of faith, love, and divine justice. Like David, we may feel small and ill-equipped, but with God on our side, we are more than conquerors.
Now, in my 81st year, I have come full circle. That dream apartment with the low rent, where I came alive to God on February 1, 1975, I gave up seven months later to enter the U.S. and discover the Spirit of ’76. God saved it for me. Today, I have a large, well-laid-out one-bedroom apartment, heated, with a parking space on Hotel de Ville in Hull, costing $398/month US. That is a dream apartment in these times of crazy rents!
This personal blog has chronicled many episodes in my search for God since that February day to the present. Through all the ups and downs, The LORD is my Shepherd. I shall not want. He causes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul; He leads me in paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. Even when I walk in the valley of darkness, I will fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff—they comfort me. You set a table before me in the presence of my adversaries; You anointed my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
The day the veil lifted was not just a personal turning point; it was a microcosm of the larger battle we face as a global community. The portrait I received that night, with its headless body, shield, slingshot, and car at the edge of a cliff, was a prophetic image of the world we live in today. The headless body symbolizes a humanity adrift, disconnected from its spiritual source. The car at the cliff represents a global system teetering on the brink of collapse. And the slingshot? It’s a reminder that even the smallest among us, armed with faith and courage, can confront the giants of our age.
The day the veil lifted was the beginning of a journey—a journey of faith, humility, and divine purpose. It was a call to see the world through spiritual eyes, to recognize that the battles we face are not just physical or political, but spiritual. The forces of greed, division, and destruction are real, but so too is the power of faith, love, and divine justice. Like David, we may feel small and ill-equipped, but with God on our side, we are more than conquerors.
And I said, “Woe is me for I am lost, for I am a man of unclean lips, and amidst a people of unclean lips I dwell, for my eyes have seen the King, the Lord of Hosts. Isaiah 6:5
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,
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 toldPolitico 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:
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!

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.
