Israeli released captive, Yasmin Porat, 44-years- old, gave a special interview to the radio program Haboker Hazeh, on Israeli Radio Kan. She answered several questions and provided details about what has happened since October 7th.
Contrary to the image of “terrorists” promoted by the West, Porat reveals that Palestinian fighters showed humanity all the time and guarantees of life, by providing safe passage to Gaza for hostages amid the chaos.
When the interviewer asked her if Israeli forces were responsible for the killing of civilians, Porat replied “undoubtedly, they eliminated everyone, including the hostages.”
Porat said that Israeli forces brutally eliminated everyone, including the hostages, amid intense crossfire and tank shelling.
Porat speech is challenging the narrative and highlighting the need for a more comprehensive and impartial investigation into Israel’s crimes against civilians..
Later, the full interview was blocked on social media networks and Kan Radio website.
As for the others:
The Military Spokesperson for Al-Quds Brigades, Abu Hamza, indicated that, after eighteen days since the battle of Al-Aqsa Flood, it has become clear to us that the occupation government does not want its captives to see the light and does not show the slightest concern for their lives.
As for a line they use and the question if it would be in context:
“Permission [to fight] has been given to those who are being fought, because they were wronged, and indeed, Allah is competent to give them victory.” – Quran (22:39).
Aljazeera.com is probably the best source at this time for information on the genocide of Gaza by Isreali forces.

Jon Rappoport (on his substack) on „colliding religious stories“ which are baked into the current conflict.
„Organized religion is frozen poetry.
The predator priests—who between them couldn’t write a nursery rhyme—take a work of great imagination, an epic poem, for instance, and edit it, cut it to shreds, insert some extra pumping and thumping, and come up with DOCTRINE.
—This is what God did, this is what He wants, this is how we, your Church, will administer it, these are the rules, this is where you drop your money in the till, this is how we control your lives.
There is a specialized form of this op, in which certain purported physical objects (usually missing) are promoted as holy holies.
Like the Ark of the Covenant.
“The inner room, or Holy of Holies [underground, in Jerusalem, below the Muslim Dome of the Rock], was thought to be the actual dwelling place of the God of Israel, who sat invisibly enthroned above a solid slab of gold that rested on the Ark of the Covenant and had a cherub at each end. This Ark was a gold-covered wooden box containing the tablets of the Ten Commandments.” (Jerusalem Post)
Wikipedia: “The Ark of the Covenant, also known as the Ark of the Testimony or the Ark of God, is an artifact believed to be the most sacred relic of the Israelites, which is described as a wooden chest, covered in pure gold, with an elaborately designed lid called the mercy seat. According to the Book of Exodus, the Ark contained the two stone tablets of the Ten Commandments. According to the New Testament Book of Hebrews, it also contained Aaron’s rod and a pot of manna.”
“The biblical account relates that approximately one year after the Israelites’ exodus from Egypt, the Ark was created according to the pattern given to Moses by God when the Israelites were encamped at the foot of Mount Sinai. Thereafter, the gold-plated acacia chest was carried by its staves by the Levites approximately 2,000 cubits (approximately 800 meters or 2,600 feet) in advance of the people when on the march. God spoke with Moses ‘from between the two cherubim’ on the Ark’s cover.”
Uh-huh. Right.
So where is the Ark now?
Encyclopedia Britannica: “Jewish and Christian tradition presents the Ark of the Covenant as the physical manifestation of God’s presence and supreme power.”
“Ancient Israelites marched the Ark into battle and brought whole cities to their knees. The Ark was so sacred that touching it meant instant death. And once it was laid to rest in the Temple of Jerusalem’s holiest chamber, only the high priest was allowed in its presence and only once a year. Then Babylon sacked Jerusalem in the 6th century BCE, and the Ark disappeared. In the thousands of years since, its fate has stymied readers of history. Perhaps most famously, it inspired Steven Spielberg’s blockbuster Indiana Jones film Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981). Finding the Ark’s real location probably doesn’t involve an adventuring archaeologist and secretive Nazis, but what do we know about the Ark’s final resting place?”
“One of the most well-known theories about the Ark is linked to Ethiopia’s 14th-century national epic, the Kebra Negast. According to this account, the Queen of Sheba visited King Solomon in Jerusalem during the 10th century BCE and had a son by him on her journey home. Their son, named Menelik, returned to Jerusalem once he was of age. Although Menelik ultimately chose to go back to his mother, Solomon sent with him a company of Jewish scions. But unbeknownst to Solomon or Menelik, these companions, frustrated about leaving Jerusalem, decided to take a souvenir of sorts: the Ark of the Covenant. It was too late for Solomon to retrieve the sacred vessel. Menelik brought the Ark with him to the city of Aksum, and, with the Ark at his side, he later conquered a number of surrounding territories for what would become the Ethiopian empire.”
“The Kebra Negast and its account of the Ark are major parts of Ethiopia’s national history. Although many scholars now believe the text to be apocryphal, Ethiopia’s medieval kings—called the Solomonic dynasty—claimed direct descent from Menelik and Solomon. This dynasty ruled until 1974, and their biblical connection was codified in Emperor Haile Selassie I’s 1931 and 1955 constitutions. Apart from the Ethiopian government, the country’s largest religious denomination, the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church, understands the Kebra Negast to be legitimate Christian history. According to church leaders, the Ark of the Covenant has for centuries been closely guarded in Aksum at the Church of St. Mary of Zion. Not even the high priest of Aksum can enter its resting chamber. Its sole custodian is a virgin monk who cannot leave the sacred grounds until his death. The Ark’s influence, though, is felt throughout the Ethiopian Orthodox world. Each one of their churches houses its own tabot, a sacred replica of the Ark. Tabots are kept in the Qeddest Qeddusan, or Holy of Holies, and are only taken out during festivals and times of need. Indeed, each tabot is venerated as if it were the Ark itself.”
“Despite being an integral part of Ethiopian Orthodoxy, the nature of the Ark’s supposed guardianship at Aksum has made the church’s claim to ownership unverifiable. Most historians think that if it existed, the more than 3,000-year-old relic either disintegrated over time or was destroyed. But this, too, is only speculation. For many, the final fate of the Ark remains a fascinating mystery and a perhaps unsolvable one.”
But wait. That’s not all.
There are claims the Ark passed through Atlantis and Lemuria, and much later was temporarily possessed by the Knights Templars and other secret societies.
Yes, well…
Even if the Ark were found, and brought into the light of day, who is to say it was originally more than the production of human artists and craftsmen working for a King, a priesthood?
But people love legends and stories that invent legends. I certainly like them. But I like them as innovations of individual poets and imagination.
Not as fact.
And definitely not, when according to many Israelites, the original resting place of the Ark was in an underground room, a holy of holies, beneath another sacred shrine, the Muslim Dome of the Rock, in Jerusalem.
Because to unearth that room now would mean destroying the Rock, from which Muhammad supposedly stepped off into Heaven.
And destroying the Rock would bring millions of Muslims to Jerusalem and start a holy war that would make the current war in Israel and Gaza pale by comparison.
Not only is the work of ancient poets stolen by the priests and turned into organized religion; THEN other predatory men take the religious stories and make them collide with each other…
For war.
For destruction.
Dear Steven Spielberg,
Make THAT movie.
I’ll pay a few bucks to see it.“

- 10 Catastrophic Scenarios! Israel-Palestine Conflict's Shocking Impact On Us Economy
With the intensifying Israel-Palestine conflict, economists are sounding alarms about its potential impact on U.S. financial markets. In this video, we explore ten adverse economic scenarios that could emanate from this crisis, including regional war escalation, OPEC oil embargoes, and global inflation risks. Join prominent economists like Peter Schiff as they analyze these critical concerns.
As the Israel-Palestine conflict deepens, the United States faces the looming threat of at least five major financial catastrophes. This concern is accentuated by ongoing government debt negotiations and China's active divestment from U.S. Treasury bonds, a move that could have far-reaching implications for the dollar's reserve status and the global economy.
China, the world's second-largest holder of U.S. debt, has consistently sold Treasury bonds for five consecutive months. This shift raises questions about the dollar's future, and China's strategic move into gold reserves adds another layer of complexity.
China's remarkable pattern of divesting from U.S. debt while increasing gold reserves sets a precedent. The country has become the world's largest buyer of gold and the largest seller of U.S. Treasury bonds, shaking up global financial dynamics.
Switzerland's recent divestment from U.S. Treasury bonds in the face of a U.S. credit rating downgrade suggests a potential wave of U.S. debt divestment. This shift may reignite concerns of high inflation and its butterfly effect.
The U.S. economy's reliance on debt financing, from the government to households, has contributed to an unsustainable situation. The Federal Reserve's rate hikes have amplified interest costs on U.S. debts, further complicating the economic landscape.
U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen acknowledges the challenges, with debt interest consuming a significant portion of economic output. The risk of debt default looms, posing a significant threat.
As the future of the U.S. debt-dependent economic model lies in the hands of China, preparations for a potential divestment of $800 billion in U.S. Treasury bonds become essential. Experts predict China may continue to divest billions in U.S. debt, painting a complex picture for the U.S. economy.

What's Israel's endgame in Gaza?
https://youtube.com/watch?v=D5-aF...JazeeraEnglish (23.21 mins)
The former Israeli justice minister (Yossi Beilin) says that Hamas’ leadership must leave Gaza for the war to end. In this episode of Sidebar, the veteran Israeli politician also answers questions about Israel’s killing of Palestinian civilians, and if there are any future prospects for a peace deal.
Having listened to the video, and given that Yossi Beilin is one of the more moderate Israelis, any negotiator for peace will certainly have their work cut-out.
Who knows how they know--but in a recent statement:
Retired Col. Douglas Macgregor told US talk show host Tucker Carlson on Monday that an confrontation near Gaza has already occurred “in the last 24 hours or so.”
“In the last 24 hours or so, some of our Special Ops forces and Israeli Special Ops forces went into Gaza to reconnoiter, to plan for where they might want to go to free hostages and make an impact, and they were shot to pieces and took heavy losses, as I understand it,” Macgregor told Carlson on Twitter/X.
“And once we are a co-belligerent, we enter this thing, it is going to be very difficult for Russia and Turkey not to also come into this fight against us because they will not tolerate the sort of collective punishment that Israel plans for Gaza.”
From someone who probably should know, the "minor" attacks on American bases were not bottlerockets:
In a recent development, the United States has acknowledged that twenty four of its soldiers were wounded in separate attacks on its occupation bases in Syria and Iraq. These attacks have raised tensions in the region and caused serious concern for US interests, potentially leading to a regional conflict.
And he know what we know--recap from Syria's Dr. Assad:
Damascus, SANA- President Bashar al-Assad said on Wednesday that the role of World Trade Unions is directly linked to the concept of justice and making efforts to achieve this purpose, and based on this concept, the relationship between Syria and “World Federation of Trade Unions” is old and “set off from the conflict between capitalism and the labor forces.”
President al-Assad added in a meeting with Mr. Pambis Kyritsis, Secretary General of World Federation of Trade Unions ( WFTU) that the major companies are leading politics and making decisions in the U.S. and Europe, and they create conflicts and wars to achieve their economic and financial interests, and “what is going on today in the occupied Palestinian territories is, in part, a reflection of this brutal reality that accepts committing massacres and killing innocent people simply because they stick to their rights and defend them.”
“We have many battles to carry on, in which the political issue is inseparable from the economic, ideological and social ones,” the President added.
It's hard to say what is truth or just propaganda, but, I still feel like Iran is the target and they are just getting ready to go for it....

Israel agrees to U.S. request to delay Gaza invasion
(Reuters) -Israel has agreed to delay an expected invasion of Gaza for now so that the United States can rush missile defences to the region to protect U.S. troops there, the Wall Street Journal reported on Wednesday, citing U.S. and Israeli officials.
U.S. officials have so far persuaded Israel to hold off until U.S. air-defence systems can be placed in the region, as early as later this week, the WSJ said.

That simply describes Moses himself doesn't it? From there on out.
And I think the Pastors may be worse. A "priest" is such a part of an institution, that he has little flexibility. But now we have "churches", operated by those who may have some kind of a degree to help them run their mouth, and the unity ends there. Especially in America, anything that might even be traced to any European school such as "Lutheran" is a minority compared to the "denominations", represented by any words you can think of, ending with "of God" or "of Christ", and these things are more like private businesses, or clubs.
I was forced to find out about them yesterday in this post, where the Ark is linked to a far more dangerous thing, that is, the Throne of David is really the Throne of the UK--due to an 1897 poem.
King James was favorable to or interested in "Israel", but I do not know of any official doctrines or actions that may extend this beyond his own head.
In the 1700s, we *do* find new interpretations of the Book of Ezekiel, which are still not quite Zionistic, because they are still in favor of the British Empire, and I am not sure any "right of return" is discussed, because it's not Jewish.
You would think 1897 might be a bit late for an Englishman to be defining true Judaism--and the poem's author knew it was fiction and said he was ignorant about any real history behind it.
But that idea IS taken extremely seriously by a gamut of "denominations".
Try to look it up! You will find at least fifty kinds of churches with this tucked well under their wing, seething Rule Britannia throughout the universe.
This movement is at the exact same time as true, international Zionism on the part of the Jewish community.
I don't remember any Jews saying something about the Throne of David since 586 B. C. E..
This would appear to be a more crucial issue than "whose Holy Land" is in a few sites, or the legality of who owns some property 195 generations later. Spontaneously in 1897 it is the the United Kingdom and her divine mission on earth!
No proof is necessary.
No one really needs King David's DNA, or the Ark of the Covenant--it is like they finally discovered the truth after all these times of, apparently, shouldering scriptures for no reason.
The Ezekiel thing at least has the excuse of actually being the scripture.
This Throne belief is now the foundation of so many British and American churches that it may be incurable.
It is clever to maintain this as a "private belief" rather than a state law, so I, for example, never heard of it. We are made to think Zion is about the Jews, when, obviously it is not.
If anyone has been exposed to this and can offer insight, that would be helpful.
It explains warnings about our Constitution, such as a way "a minority can be easily oppressed", such as stealing our taxes to commit genocide while trying to hide this doctrine.
Secondly I found no echoes of this with the Orthodox. They are forced to accept the same Christian scripture, which only says the Second Coming would be in the House of David. There is no eschatology, battle cry, or obsession with bloodlines or property, is almost purely mystical.
Again it appears more true that Orthodoxy is Christianity, and the "denominations" are some kind of Messianic Judaism. Not sure what else to call it when you attempt to run an Empire based on a legend of a Judaic king, and use business and governmental enterprise, the economy and taxes, to make it look like something which it is not.
That is the Frankist concept, or, if you were born that way, it means you can be a Jewish Christian.
It will be easy to attach these "religions" to the current reputation of Anglo Zion. Already made that way.
Fair enough. If you had done this when it started, you would have been taken by a Witchfinder. This is just making it easier to undermine the whole mentality.
Israel-Hamas War: "I Refuse To Talk To Genocide Deniers!" Piers Morgan Debates Palestine With Panel
Piers Morgan Uncensored
Oct 25, 2023 #piersmorgan #palestine #israel
Piers Morgan Uncensored is joined by the founder of 'Within Our Lifetime' and Pro-Palestinian activist Nerdeen Kiswani and author and broadcaster Emily Austin to debate the historical conflict between Israel and Palestine and why some people refuse to condemn Hamas' terrorist attack on October 7th.
The panel first give a brief reaction to Piers' heated debate with rapper and pro-Palestinian activist Lowkey and they debate his refusal to condemn the attacks.
Nerdeen then explains that Palestinians are tired of condemning the attacks on October 7th because it becomes the starting point of this conflict which goes back many years. -
Something to watch for in the coming days/weeks as this escalates, is the possibility of Israel's gas plants being targeted. Two large gas fields, the Tamar and Leviathan Gas fields were discovered in 2009 and 2010 as well as host of smaller fields in the vicinity. This gas has made Israel self sufficient for its energy needs and a boom for its economy. Once a net importer for fuel, Israel is assured energy independence for several decades to come as well as becoming a net exporter of fuel. These plants will likely become a target.
Is this what the Future Forecasting Group has been remotely visualising? Is this what the Polish clairvoyant Krzysztof Jackowski been seeing?
[From cable 09TELAVIV1732] “Diskin said that the PSO shares with ISA [Shabak] almost all the intelligence that it collects”
--------------------------------
-------------------------Placing this historical article here so that we can add this to the canon of literature. It doesn't necessarily reveal anything some of our more diligent researchers don't already know, but good to have on record.
As stated in the article (from December 2010) it was written before the subsequent 2011 tranche of US Embassy cable releases. The actual Wikileaks site has returned to its locked-out state so mirror sites are the only option, for now. I've linked to the numbered cables here via Avalon library copies so that they can be seen in full. [NOTE: Shabak = Shin Bet].
Wikileaks: Insights on Palestine from the Cables
Original source: Asa Winstanley
Avalon Library source: https://avalonlibrary.net/Tintin/201...Winstanley.pdf
One of the first things that struck me while reading the cables from the US embassy to Israel in Tel Aviv was how worried the Israeli government seems to be about the Goldstone Report into war crimes committed during Israel’s 2008-2009 attack on the people of Gaza. In cable 09TELAVIV2777 of December 2009, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is said to have named the report as one of three “principal threats” facing Israel—the other two being Iran’s alleged nuclear programme and “missile proliferation”.
Second, there are important insights into the high level of collaboration between Israel and forces that have been called the “Palestinian Contras” in the occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip. Indeed, the first “cablegate” headline on Palestine was sourced from cable 09TELAVIV1177, in which Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak is reported to have said he “had consulted with Egypt and Fatah prior to Operation Cast Lead, asking if they were willing to assume control of Gaza once Israel defeated Hamas”. In other words, Fateh leader Mahmoud Abbas (whose term as PA president expired in January 2009) knew the massive Israeli onslaught was coming but said nothing. This was widely suspected, but to read confirmation of it from a confidential US government source is something new.
There’s more. Cable 07TELAVIV1732, which I like to call “War of the Puppets”, was released this week. To my mind, it’s the most interesting of the Palestine cables released so far. Written in June 2007 during Gaza street-fighting caused by the ultimately unsuccessful Fateh coup attempt, it details a meeting between then-ambassador Richard H. Jones and Yuval Diskin (head of Israel’s secret police, the Shabak—aka Shin Bet). It is a portrait of how divided Israel’s Palestinian collaborators really were. “[Gaza warlord Mohammed] Dahlan is trying to manage Fatah’s security forces by remote control. We are not even sure where he is… ” Diskin is quoted as saying. He continued: “[Dahlan’s men in Gaza] ask us to attack Hamas. This is a new development. We have never seen this before. They are desperate.” Again, this is all important corroborating evidence for things we already knew or suspected. Recent media reports of a power struggle between Abbas and Dahlan (whom Fateh elements close to the US now blame for “losing” Gaza) suggest little has changed in terms of Fateh infighting.
Diskin is also reported in 07TELAVIV1732 to have claimed the Shabak had “a very good working relationship with the [Palestinian Authority] Preventive Security Organization (PSO) and the General Intelligence Organization (GIO).” The most striking quote in the whole cable to me is this: “Diskin said that the PSO shares with ISA [Shabak] almost all the intelligence that it collects”.
There is also something of an overlooked smoking gun in this cable. Of Tawfik Tirawi, leader of the PA’s GIO: “Diskin said… he is trying to develop ties with the Dughmush family in the Gaza Strip.’” The Doghmush clan (aka the “Army of Islam”), you may recall, are the same group that in March 2007 kidnapped BBC journalist Alan Johnston (he was rescued by Hamas in July). While a Fateh connection to the group has long been suspected, to my knowledge this is the first confirmation of it from official sources.
Overall, this is a Palestinian Authority acting as nothing more than an extension of the Israeli occupation forces – a relationship that has only deepened in the last three-and-a-half years. However, there is a lot missing in the cables: little on the 2008-2009 Israeli assault on Gaza, nothing on the assassination of Mahmoud al-Mabhouh in Dubai and little on the July 2006 Israeli war on Lebanon. Despite some rather unlikely conspiracy theories currently doing the rounds on the internet, the likely reasons for these gaps are more mundane. First, none of the cables are rated “Top Secret”; second the inherent bias of US government personnel towards Israel; and third, only a small fraction of the leaked cables have actually been published so far. Indeed, during an interview with Al Jazeera this week, Julian Assange claimed they had thousands of cables on Israel still to come, including material on the al-Mabhouh assassination and the July 2006 war.
Also, of note is a graph illustrating the composition of the cables cache on the Wikleaks website. It appears to show that around 2000 cables from the US consulate in Jerusalem are still to come. These could be more interesting than the cables released so far (almost all from the embassy in Tel Aviv).
To be continued, in all likelihood.
