BREAKING: Israeli outlet Haaretz has blatantly plagiarized my post about Sky News editing their video on the Amsterdam riots, lifting a number of sentences word-for-word and only slightly revising the rest.

A side-by-side analysis shows at least five paragraphs of the Haaretz article were directly taken from my social media profile and republished with just a handful of minor edits.

The plagiarist in question is Rachel Fink — the same Rachel Fink who wrote a hit piece about me in Haaretz in June, based on a smear job by the Washington Post which was so shoddily-written that its very first sentence was immediately retracted.

Her previous piece, labeling us a “fringe news site,” was merely Haaretz’s latest attack on myself and The Grayzone. Last November, the outlet labeled editor-in-chief
@MaxBlumenthal
a “conspiracy theorist” after he pointed out that the Israeli government killed large number of Israeli civilians in October — a ‘conspiracy theory’ which Haaretz itself went on to confirm two weeks later.

That same month, another Haaretz piece accused our top editor of carrying out a “masterclass in manipulation,” claiming Blumenthal “has a history of denying war crimes, so it's no surprise he provided a piece that very selectively uses facts, includes purposely edited quotes to change their meaning and grossly plays down the atrocities against Israelis.”

Given their long history of disparaging myself, Max Blumenthal, and The Grayzone in general, they were apparently unable to publicly credit a Grayzone employee. So they did the next best thing: shamelessly plagiarize our work and pass it off as their own.

The blatant forgery of my writing by Haaretz is pathetic — and likely illegal — but ultimately unsurprising. It does, however, raise the crucial question: is there anything Israelis won’t steal?

⚡️Hamas:

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

What the terrorist Finance Minister Smotrich announced today about proceeding with the implementation of a plan to extend zionist control over the West Bank and prevent the establishment of a Palestinian state, categorically confirms the colonial intentions of the occupation and its denial of our people's national rights, and refutes the claims of those deluded into believing in achieving peace and coexistence with this Nazi entity based on terrorism and the theft of rights and land.

We, in the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), reaffirm that we, along with our Palestinian people and all resistance factions, will continue to confront the occupation's schemes, and we will not allow the terrorist Smotrich or any other war criminals of the zionist entity to carry out any of their evil plans, which will not grant them legitimacy over our occupied land, nor will it alter the historical facts, that the West Bank is purely Palestinian land and an integral part of our independent Palestinian state with Al-Quds as its capital.

We call on the Arab League, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, and the United Nations to take active measures to curb this zionist colonial gang that continues to defy international legitimacy, and to stop these policies and plans that will only lead to more tension and escalation on the regional and international levels.

🇮🇱The Israeli newspaper Haaretz revealed on X that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was not invited to the annual conference of Jewish federations in North America.

The newspaper reported that this is the first time he has not been invited to give a speech at the conference of Jewish federations in North America, signaling the extent of division regarding Netanyahu in the United States, even among Jewish organizations that have typically refrained from criticizing the Israeli prime minister and his government.

Meanwhile, the Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth stated that the decision to exclude Netanyahu reveals the level of tension between Jewish communities and organizations and Netanyahu's coalition, especially after Benny Gantz's departure from it and the dismissal of Yoav Gallant.

So, ‘maximum pressure’ on Iran because of suspicions they might have nuclear weapons, meanwhile endless support to Israel who has demonstrated time and again the most criminal, irrational and violent behavior and who is actually in possession of nuclear weapons, the technology of which they stole from the US decades ago.
That’s the hypocrisy of the Trump regime.

Trump picks Iran hawk as UN envoy
Congresswoman Elise Stefanik has backed a “maximum pressure” campaign against Tehran

US President-elect Donald Trump has nominated Republican Congresswoman Elise Stefanik, a staunch ally of Israel and a foreign policy hawk, to serve as the next ambassador to the UN.

“I am honored to nominate Chairwoman Elise Stefanik to serve in my Cabinet as US Ambassador to the United Nations. Elise is an incredibly strong, tough, and smart America First fighter,” Trump said in a statement to the media on Monday.

If confirmed by the Senate, Stefanik, a congresswoman from New York, would replace career diplomat Linda Thomas-Greenfield, who has been representing the US at the UN since 2021.

In a post on X on Sunday, Stefanik wrote that the US was “ready for a return to President Trump’s MAXIMUM PRESSURE campaign against Iran.” She argued that Tehran has been “emboldened by the weakness of the Biden-Harris Administration.”

During Trump’s first term, the US scrapped the 2015 Iran nuclear deal and ramped up sanctions against the Islamic Republic. In January 2020, Iran’s senior commander, Qassem Soleimani, was killed in a US drone strike near the Baghdad airport. The White House accused Soleimani of orchestrating attacks on American military personnel and civilians in Iraq and Syria. Tehran condemned the strike as illegal under international law.
Stefanik has been one of the strongest supporters of Israel during its ongoing war against Hamas in Gaza and air strikes against Hezbollah in Lebanon. She backed West Jerusalem’s decision to ban the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine (UNRWA), whose staffers were accused by Israel of aiding Hamas militants. “The Biden-Harris Administration has sent over $1 billion to UNRWA since 2021, filling the coffers of this terrorist front. This must end,” Stefanik said earlier this month.

She also repeatedly drew attention to instances of antisemitism during pro-Palestinian protests on college campuses across the US.

Israel’s envoy to the UN, Danny Danon, welcomed Stefanik’s nomination, praising her “unwavering moral clarity.”

Outgoing President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have been criticized by Arab American and Muslim American groups for not suspending military aid to Israel and not doing enough to bring about a ceasefire in Gaza.

• Nearly a Million Lebanese Made Homeless by USA Funded Israel Aggression:

Today was a certain memorial:

Quote:

---

Head of Hezbollah Media Relation Department Hajj Mohammad Afifi held on Monday a press conference at Sayyed Al-Shuhada Complex in Ruweis, Beirut’s Dahiyeh, on the occasion of the Resistance Group’s Martyr Day which falls every November 11.

Afif recalled how every year the former Secretary General Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah attends the Complex in order to address the eager crowds on martyrdom and narrate the great stories of the martyrs.

This year the scene is different, and Sayyed Nasrallah has been martyred, yet still leading the battle of the “Formidable in Might”, Afif stressed.

Hezbollah designates November 11 as Martyr’s Day, a solemn occasion commemorating the sacrifice of all martyrs and especially Ahmad Kassir, who valiantly orchestrated a pivotal operation against the Israeli military command in Tyre back in 1982, reshaping the course of history.

Marking the anniversary of Martyr Kassir this year is done by achieving victory in the battle field, Afif stressed.

Afif stressed that valiant fighters of Hezbollah are eager to meet the enemy and avenge the martyrdom of their master, adding that the Resistance fight will determine the fate of the nation and the entire Middle East.

Afif added that around 65 thousand Israeli soldiers have failed to control any of the Lebanese border villages after 45 days of fierce clashes with Hezbollah fighters.

Hezbollah has the Husseini will to fight till martyrdom, enough time till the advent of the winter season when it will submerge the Zionist tanks in the Lebanese mud, and the land which it knows well and where the Resistance fighters can perform free movements and maneuvers.

Afif noted that the air force supremacy cannot grant the enemy victory, adding that, if the Israeli occupation forces fail to control the ground, Tel Aviv will not be able to impose its terms in politics.

“Along with more ‘home’ front cracks, there will be a turning point which will prove again that ‘Israel’ is weaker than a spider web. The North settlers will never return to the North.”

The reason behind the emergence of some political endeavors to establish an atmosphere of negotiations is the steadfastness of the Resistance fighters, Afif affirmed.

Afif maintained that Hezbollah has enough weapons, equipment and supplies to engage in a long battle, adding that the Resistance use of heavy and precision missile barrages, including Fateh-110, answers the Zionist claims about the deficiency of Hezbollah rocket stockpiles.

Hezbollah official underlined the firm ties between Hezbollah and the Lebanese Army, recalling the martyrdom of martyr Sayyed Hadi Nasrallah along with the Army officer Jawad Azar in addition to the martyrdom of the army officer Mohammad Farhat in the border village of Aitaroun as well as his funeral in Zgharta which turned to be a national wedding.

This reflects the real role of the army in protecting Lebanon, Afif affirmed.

Some Lebanese parties who fought the Army in the civil war allege now to defending the army by opening the political fire at the Resistance raising a normal question about the Israeli landing operation in Batroun, Afif said, emphasizing that those will fail to strike the relation between Hezbollah and the Resistance.

Afif highlighted the malicious pro-Israeli propaganda against the Resistance and its social milieu, adding that it witnessed a come-back after Hezbollah restored its power.

The Israeli aggression dates back to the thirties of the past century and has started before the emergence of Hezbollah, according to Afif who wondered about the intentions behind this reality distortion.

Afif indicated that Hezbollah acknowledges the high cost of the resistance against the occupation and aggression, asking about the alternative choice and maintaining that patience will certainly lead to victory.

Afif underscored that the battlefield was portrayed by Maariv which said that 50K Zionist soldiers have failed to occupy any Lebanese village.

Hezbollah official praised Amsterdam protests against the Zionist hooligans, adding that, despite the governmental complicity in the West, the public can highlight Israeli’s isolation.

After the press conference, Afif led the reporters in a tour to inspect the massive destruction caused by the barbaric Zionist aggression on Beirut’s Dahiyeh.

Personal note: the following is a brilliant interview with Professor Jeffrey Sachs. Starts with a discussion on the repercussions of Trump’s election. Israel’s Smotrich now claiming that it’s a good time to annex the West Bank. However, the neighboring arab countries will no longer acquiesce to Israel’s land grabs, and are now drafting a peace agreement stipulating a 2 state solution with the 1967 borders.
Most interesting part begins at 19:40, Sachs describes Netanyahu’s strategy for the last 30 years, of regime change (or attempted regime change) several countries to weaken opposition to the ‘greater Israel’ project. That’s why Israel got US to fight those regime change wars against Iraq, Syria, Lybia. At the cost of trillions of US taxpayers’ dollars, all of which has been a disaster for US. “The Israel lobby puts in a $100 millions in, and gets trillions $ out on the other side” from the US. Netanyahu doesn’t see these wars as failures, because the US keeps complying to his requests. However, the new Trump administration will find out that the world is moving away from the US-Israel axis of war, and now wants peace. Israel and US in bad shape financially.

The first operation targeted the American aircraft carrier (Abraham) located in the Arabian Sea with a number of cruise missiles and drones while the American enemy was preparing to carry out hostile operations targeting our country, Sarea said.

The operation has successfully achieved its objectives, and led to thwarting the operation that the American enemy was preparing against our country, he added.

“The other operation targeted two American destroyers in the Red Sea with a number of ballistic missiles and drones.
The operation has successfully achieved its objectives.”

The two operations took eight hours in a row, Sarea affirmed.

🇸🇾 President Bashar al-Assad's Speech at the Arab and Islamic Summit in Riyadh

In a powerful address, President Assad highlighted that the core issue with Israel extends beyond the current Netanyahu government. He said the problem lies with the deep-rooted ideological foundations of the Zionist state, describing it as a “mind sick with bloodshed” and “obsessed with the illusion of superiority.”

Assad called on Arab and Islamic nations to take a firm stance—urging a boycott of Israel and stop talking with “the thief in the language of the law, to the criminal in the language of morality, and the butcher in the language of humanity,”

He might not be the one who's going to lift a really big stick in this slugfest, but he knows everything. He had to include "Arab" because his country is technically not "the Umma". Let's compare his remarks to those of another head of state:

Quote:

Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu has claimed responsibility for personally ordering the detonation of thousands of communication devices across Lebanon that killed and injured thousands of people in September.

Omer Dostri, spokesperson for the premier’s office, cited him as making the remarks on Monday, ending draw-out efforts by the regime and its allies to distance it from the murderous atrocity.

At least 39 people, including two children, were killed and more than 3,400 others suffered mostly debilitating injuries throughout the country after explosives planted in advance in numerous pager and walkie-talkie devices were set off on September 18 and 19.

The casualties included many members of Lebanon’s Hezbollah Resistance Movement.

The blasts maimed many of the victims, afflicting them with eye and limb injuries. The injuries that ranged from missing limbs to gaping abdominal wounds and other lesions occurred after the devices beeped indicating incoming messages.

Beirut has denounced the attacks for being "unprecedented in its brutality."

On Wednesday, Lebanon’s Labour Minister Mustafa Bayram said that his country had filed an official complaint with the United Nations International Labour Organization (ILO) over the explosions.

It appears to be an answer to the call:

Hezbollah has, for the first time, attacked a major Israeli air force base with a significant rocket barrage as part of its retaliation against the regime’s atrocities.

The movement announced on Tuesday that it targeted the HaHotrim base, a key Israeli air force facility housing equipment, transport formations, and an engine factory.

The base is located south of the occupied city of Haifa, approximately 40 kilometers from the Lebanon-Palestine border.

Hezbollah stated that this attack was part of the Khaybar series of operations, which aim at the regime’s sensitive intelligence bases and other strategic locations.

In addition to this operation, Hezbollah launched a swarm of attack drones at the command center of the Ramim Brigade at the Hunin barracks, successfully hitting the targets with precision.

The group also targeted a logistical base of the 146th Division located north of Sheikh Dannun village, east of Nahariya.

Resistance forces further struck the Shraga base north of the occupied city of Akka with a missile barrage.

The regime’s Tel Nof air base, south of Tel Aviv, was also targeted by Hezbollah as part of these operations.

Hezbollah said in a statement on Wednesday that its fighters had conducted an "aerial attack with a squadron of exploding drones" on the HaKirya base housing Israel's main military institutions, Press TV said in a report on Wedensday.

Hezbollah said the base serves at the Israeli regime’s “ministry of war and general staff, the war management room, and the air force’s military control and oversight authority.”

Drones of the resistance have also targeted Israel's Amos base— the main logistical support and transportation hub— in northern occupied territories.

I can't clarify it, but, it seems to be a new phase against "stuff" other than "personnel gatherings". So far, it has been limited munitions kind of slipped off to the side at such targets; today was more honest and concentrated.

Ex-governor Mike Huckabee, has been appointed as ambassador to the land where his 'savior' once walked, talked and kicked some ass. He is talking about taking christian pastors to Auschwitz and not to the killing fields of Gaza. That is the visual impression that all people need to see. In the near future please do note the absence of Mikey's "humanitarian" visits to any neighborhood occupied by those living in the rubble, in the graveyards alive with the living ghosts of the innocent. The other real citizens of this country will never see that creature shed one damn, single tear for those slaughtered by his masters.

'For every inch of land in the middle east controlled by israel (the zionists) there are 644 inches controlled by muslims', ex-governor Huckabee just said. Whose colon dropped that enlightened, psyop-created insight into your ambassadors assignment package? Got a goal in your hand Mikey? Ambitious to kill "in God's Name" some, more?

Chuckabee and his ilk criticize another religious offshoot as different to their own faith as zionism is to Judaism, imaginary or not, that has been known to offer virgins in their afterlife, regardless of how tired and worn out those "virgins" have to be by now. The kettle of 'christian' evangelists is as full of the same fossilized crap as any cult has ever cooked, but they still stand at the gates of hell feeding the fires. Has Mikey also been given an outline of top secret orders for the future, orders that include the extension of genocidal and complicit acceptance of murder, rape, starvation, theft and torture?

Oh yeah...that's right. I remember that you, Mike, follow a fictional character who bears no lived resemblance to the real man who lived and was born of a natural conception and gestation from a real woman. Now that's a very imaginative, if not diabolical concept where both men and women, supposedly created by an omniscient creator god, would never be able to also create the whole life needed for a good and great soul to live on this planet. All that tells me is that, under that concept, that fairy tale, everyone is screwed...but not by the Almighty, in which case the screwing is highly, religiously selective.

Immaculate conception....Really? Are the religious authors so bold as to assume that Mary could only conceive and gestate a great soul thru artificial insemination or alien seminal donation? What else did they sell you when you traded your soul for promises? I have to conclude that those who wrote those "religious" texts didn't know women at all. No way....

Why people call themselves "christians" while having their lips firmly affixed to the anuses of the completely anti-christian zionists is the most cruel of ironies. It would make sense to think that those same christians would then be repeating the same vile insults to the victims of their complicities and donated armaments, but that never seems to be heard in public discourse. Do Ya speak Zionese Mr. Ambassador? Do the demonic, pagan settlers in the Golan and the dogs in Amsterdam chanting death and rape to Arabs meet with your approval?

Don't expect anything Peaceful from the new man in Jerusalem....Saalem..Salam..Shalom..Peace..Isn't that what the name of the town, the city, the land is advertised to be? Is there even a hint of Peace left in that land where the stench of rotting corpses of the innocent chokes the air....
F**king humans....are everything but.........human.
Just like those christians are everything but..........christian.

In whose imagination, vast and unlimited, alive and open hearted, as compassionate as the common understanding of the word "Christian" denotes, could anyone calling themselves "christian" even imagine that the inspiration of their "religious" path, Yessuah Messah, Jesus the Christ, would condone any of the evil actions the zionists have perpetrated upon the inhabitants of any land, especially the land where that Christ once walked?

• 'Chilling' testimony from British surgeon who worked in Gaza for a month: 'Children mowed down with ISRAELI 🇮🇱 drones':

British surgeon who has been working in Gaza for a month said on Tuesday that children were brought to him with bullet wounds to the head after they were "deliberately targeted" by Israeli snipers. Nizam Mamode worked at Nasser Hospital in Gaza from mid-August to mid-September. In 60 to 70 percent of cases, women and children were brought in, he told the International Development Commission in the British House of Commons. "We saw a number of children who had been shot in the head by snipers. No other injuries. They were clearly targeted by Israeli snipers. And yes, this happened day in, day out."

source

• Never seen anything on this scale before

“What’s happening in Gaza is something I’ve never seen before,” said the surgeon, who has worked in a number of conflict zones. “I was there when the genocide happened in Rwanda. But I’ve never seen anything on this scale.” ... The professor said medical aid was being denied on a large scale, aid supplies were being blocked, hospitals were being bombed, ambulances were being attacked and health workers were being killed. ... “If all that hadn't happened, tens of thousands of lives would have been saved,” Mamode claimed.

• Mowing down children with drones

He further said that most of the victims were from the Green Zone, which would not be attacked. Fighting back tears, the surgeon described how bombs were dropped on tent camps, after which drones appeared to shoot children who were still alive.

• Very chilling

Children told how they were shot at close range by a quadcopter after a bombing. Civilians were deliberately targeted. There were one or two mass casualty events a day, he said. MP Sarah Champion, chair of the committee, called the examples Mamode gave "very chilling" and spoke of "shocking evidence". Britain must consider the possibility that there have been serious breaches of international humanitarian law in Gaza, she said after his evidence. Champion said he would do everything he could to ensure his voice was heard.
