    In response to targeting a Lebanese Health Center:



    Quote At least two rescue workers were martyred as Israeli warplanes targeted a health center in the southern border town of Blida, prompting Hezbollah to heavily retaliate.

    In retaliation to the Israeli aggression, Hezbollah flew on Friday two kamikaze drones, achieving accurate hits in the Israeli command headquarters of the Upper Galilee Regional Council, a statement by the group’s Islamic Resistance read.

    The occupation military then confirmed that an aerial attack was carried out in the Zionist entity’s north, claiming that one aerial target was intercepted. It also alleged that “there are no reports that the council’s headquarters was hit.”

    The Israeli occupation army rarely announces the nature of attacks staged against military targets, as it refrains from declaring accurate figures regarding the losses, especially the number of casualties among the Zionist personnel.

    In a second statement, Hezbollah military media indicated that the Islamic Resistance fighters targeted Al-Malkiya site at 04:00 pm on Friday, February 23, 2024, with two Burkan missiles, achieving direct hits.

    Hezbollah military media’s third statement maintained that the Islamic Resistance fighters targeted Ruwaisat Al-Alam site in the occupied Lebanese Shebaa Farms at 04:20 pm on Friday, February 23, 2024, with missile weapons, achieving direct hits.

    Islamic Resistance fighters targeted Al-Radar site in the occupied Lebanese Shebaa Farms at 04:30 pm on Friday, February 23, 2024, with missile weapons, achieving direct hits, Hezbollah military media’s fourth statement mentioned.

    Hezbollah military media’s fifth statement affirmed that the Islamic Resistance fighters targeted Al-Malkiya site at 05:50 pm on Friday, February 23, 2024, with missile weapons, achieving direct hits.

    They may be in a state of denial, but the tension mounts:


    Quote A heavy missile and artillery fire has left numerous fatalities among the enemy soldiers and settlers and caused a massive destruction in the settlements.

    Hezbollah attacks, thus, have overburdened the northern settlements. Dozens of thousands of settlers were obliged to flee the area.

    Many of them are losing their houses damaged or completely destroyed by Hezbollah missiles. Others are losing their factories and different businesses.

    Doren Cohen, Maariv Editor-in-Chief, said that Hezbollah has managed to impose a buffer zone on the “Israeli” side of the borders, defend Lebanon and support Gaza.

    Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper affirmed that Netanyahu’s government rejected to reassure the settlers of the north about their return and the process of funding their evacuation.


    What is a "buffer zone"? How much of northern Zion has become permanently uninhabitable by Zionists??

    All the way to Al Quds, my friends.

    Does the total destruction genocide tone of this remark sound appropriate in any way?

    In the most blunt military terms, you usually only escalate the level of force by an increment. Therefor, the way to gain trust of soldiers would be to say "would result in a corresponding strike on Montreal".

    Americans talk about eliminating entire countries in a rabid manner with salivation and crazed eyes.

    Surely, that broken vessel is completely filled with Satan.

    Let's get realistic about foreign attacks on American soil. During World War II, a Japanese Zero dropped two bombs in the woods in Oregon so it would have enough fuel to return to carrier. What are you so afraid of?

    These people are utterly vapid. You would rather deal with a court than with me. Buffalo can keep that messy vinegar sauce, I wish it had never been let out. Oh, and if you want a hotbed of white supremacy, Buffalo, Albany, Rochester...the reputation proceeds you Miss Jewish Philanthropist.

    Rafah is the next frontline in the Israel-Gaza conflict, and now the international community has changed its view on Israel's right to defend itself. Journalists Peter Oborne and Jake Wallis Simons debate how Israel should proceed with its attack on Hamas. Since the IDF's ground invasion, millions of Palestinians have been displaced, with hundreds of thousands killed – have they gone too far?

    Does anyone here knows what position Trump is taking on the current Israel war against Gaza? I haven't heard any comment from Trump one way or the other. He seems to be carefully avoiding that particular topic.

    On the other hand, Trump has recently (October 11, 2023) revealed that he "had a bad experience with Israel", with regard to the assassination of Suleimani. Trump stated that the assassination had been planned by both USA and Israel, but at the last minute Netanyahu decided to pull out and let USA carry out the operation on its own. That obviously left Trump with a bad feeling. Quoting from the video below:

    "I'll never forget that Bibi Netanyahu let us down. That was a very terrible thing... Very disappointed by that. But we did the job beautiful operation. But Bibi tried to take credit for that. That didn't make me feel too good. But they've got to strengthen themselves up, because they're fighting a big force..."
    (Unfortunately the video stops there.)

    Is there the beginning of understanding from Trump that he was manipulated by Bibi to conduct this criminal operation, so that Iran's retaliation would be aimed at USA's military bases and not Israel? This is an important question, even if Trump doesn't become president at the 2024 elections. Trump has the highest number of supporters, and he will be the leader of the Republican Party, and what they think and know about Israel might change USA's relations with Israel.

    Unhappy Re: Israel vs Palestine/Lebanon/Iran/Yemen/Syria: a New Middle East War

    • WARNING! ... GRAPHIC CONTENT:
    Loved ones of Aaron Bushnell, 25, reached out to me and gave me consent to post a blurred version of Bushnell’s protest today against genocide in Palestine.

    “Aaron is the kindest, gentlest, silliest little kid in the Air Force,” said Errico, who met Bushnell in 2022.



    We've been informed that Aaron Bushnell, self claimed active member of the Air Force, who lit himself on fire outside of the Israeli embassy in Washington DC today in protest of the genocide happening in Gaza, has passed way.

    "Bushnell (25) did incredible work here in San Antonio for various mutual aid and unhoused coalitions. He spent every penny and second he had on serving his community ... And living his anarchist principles in action" - T, a friend from San Antonio who worked alongside Aaron in mutual Aid work throughout San Antonio

    Some of Aaron's last words were, "I will not be complicit in genocide." Aaron videoed himself and You can hear him scream "Free Palestine" as flames engulf his body.

    It's been one month since the International Court of Justice ordered Israel to prevent genocide in Gaza.

    The ICJ gave Israel until today to submit a report showing that is complying with six separate orders. The court did not find that Israel was committing genocide - but nonetheless issued six orders meant to make sure a genocide does not occur.

    Aaron Bushnell.

    Lucas Gage..
    Thank you John.

    Provisionally I have no words for what Aaron did. He is with the angels now anyhow. I plan to send Lucas Gage’s contribution to others.

    I think that this – controlled, but very forceful – anger Gage musters, is the ONLY style of public utterance that is warranted; and that since quite some time.

    With my friends – the few ones who think as I do – only shared tears help us come to terms with our experience.

    With the ignorant and shallow ones – far more than 90 pc. of the population – I use cryptic language, language that puzzles them, and when they are a little more curious and and a lot more brave, they address my hint in another conversation. And then, maybe, a door may be opened.

    But occasionally I leave aside the veiled way of speaking with them, and I erupt in precisely the same anger as Lucas Gage does.

    Then they flee, occasionally after saying that I am deranged.

    ...

    A reserve formulated vis-a-vis of Lucas Gage.

    I do not share the 1 p.c. of his tears shed for the poor betrayed Americans.

    I only share the 99 p.c. of his tears for Aaron Bushnell, as I do for the Palestinians and for the the non-Zionist Jews who are being persecuted.

    Question Re: Israel vs Palestine/Lebanon/Iran/Yemen/Syria: a New Middle East War

    Quote Posted by Michel Leclerc (here)
    Aaron Bushnell ...
    Maybe a weird question of mine, discussing 25-year young Aaron Bushnell (here & here) ... He may have a girlfriend or is married ... I do not know ... maybe he has (a) sister(s)/brother(s), definitely a father, mother, grandparents etc. etc.
    • What can we say to all potential future drastic activists out there who might want to do the same? ... What can we say to convince there are other ways to make a difference?
    Before I answer/respond to that question, I want to see other Avalonians come with some ideas/suggestions ... Hoping to prevent more loss of very sensitive, super committed Souls!

    There must be a way to reach out to many others who also have strong feelings about what is happening in Israhell vs Gaza ... the systematic demonization & dehumanization of all Palestinians is so obvious that when using systematic generalization rhetoric to "justify" what they do >>> OTHERS can do the same to all ISRAELI ... They set a new standard of how to dehumanize a whole group of people and when that is mirrored back they seem to forget why things are to backfire on a massive scale. Not all Israelis "hate" all Palestinians, but they make sure that almost all eventually do, through their genocidal actions that will have HUGE consequences.
    • Would ISRAEL have done what they did without the backing & (financial & military) aid coming from the USA/EU?
    • Would ISRAEL have done what they did without the "blessing" coming from US NeoCons & US NeoLibs PLUS the Mainstream Media (Fox/CNN/MSNBC/ABC/AP/Reuters/New York Times/Washington Post etc.) who are equally complicit?
    cheers,

    I've already sent many letters to my Canadian government criticizing their support of Israel's genocide of Palestinians since 1948. Got one response from my MP, that stated the conflict with Gaza started on October 7, 2023, and Hamas started it. Of course I responded that this is a lie, and the Turdeau regime is complicit in this genocide.
    We need to reiterate the truth again and again.

    Aaron Bushnell, a 25-year-old US Air Force member, protested US complicity in Israel's genocide in Gaza by self-immolating in front of the Israeli embassy in Washington.

    Just last month, The Intercept revealed documents that suggested Biden sent US Air Force personnel to help the Israeli military with targeting in Gaza.

    2. The Palestine Red Crescent Society announced it was going to suspend for 48 hours its coordination procedures on medical missions, citing that Israel was not abiding by mechanisms agreed by UN groups to allow those missions to take place.

    3. Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant said the Palestinians who Israel displaced from their homes in northern Gaza will be able to return “only after all hostages” are released.

    4. A delegation of US Congress members called on Israel to increase the flow of aid into Gaza, after they returned from a trip to Egypt, Israel, and Jordan, where they met with senior military and civilian officials.

    5. In an open letter, more than 6,500 artists are calling for Israel to be excluded from one of the world’s biggest and most prestigious art exhibits, the Venice Biennale.

    Jordan successfully air-dropped aid for Gaza in Mediterranean Sea
    As the hunger-stricken people of southern Gaza were waiting for aid deliveries set to be airdropped by Jordan and France in the blockaded strip, three Jordanian C-130H Hercules transport aircraft and a French one made their way over Gaza and conducted several airdrops into Gaza's south in coordination with the Israeli air force bombing the strip.

    Hundreds of thousands are awaiting daily aid as they sit on the brink of starvation due to the Israeli siege.

    Jordanian forces made "four air drops carrying aid for the people of Gaza", under the directive of Jordanian King Abdullah II, a statement issued by the Jordanian army said.

    Jordan has thus far carried out 16 airdrop operations since the start of the Israeli war on Gaza in October in coordination with the Israeli air force after the Israelis themselves blocked the entry of aid into the blockaded strip.

    Previously announced airdrops, including a joint operation with the Netherlands, sent medical and other aid to the Jordanian field hospital in northern Gaza.

    However, the operation that took place on Monday, which was "aimed at delivering aid to the population directly and drop it along the coast of the Gaza Strip from north to south," almost completely failed.

    It comprised "relief and food supplies, including ready-made meals of high nutritional value, to alleviate the suffering of the people of the Gaza Strip", the statement added.

    However, interestingly enough, most of the supply drops were swimming with the fish before they made it to the hands of the people of Gaza as they were dropped straight into the Mediterranean Sea instead of on the coast of southern Gaza.


    Criticism befell Jordan over its aid delivery as the goods it airdropped were extensively damaged by the water and still, the people of Gaza, with nothing else to eat, swam into the sea to retrieve the aid because of the lack of a better alternative.

    Jordan's supplies included dates, flour, rice, and meat, all of which were rendered inedible due to the water. However, there were MREs (military-dispatched Meals Ready to Eat) that were unaffected.

    The airdropping also received criticism because it did not involve northern Gaza, which is completely blockaded and where starvation is affecting hundreds of thousands.

    The cargo, which floated down via parachutes, was not dropped using any sort of GPS technology and was scant compared to the amount of people in dire need in southern Gaza.

    Hunger afflicting Gaza

    The UN's Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) stated that the Gaza Strip's population is experiencing "unprecedented levels of near famine-like conditions" due to the prolonged Israeli aggression on Gaza.

    Approximately 550,000 people are now at risk of catastrophic food insecurity, and the entire population is in a state of crisis, it added.

    "There are unprecedented levels of acute food insecurity, hunger, and near famine-like conditions in Gaza," FAO Deputy Director General Beth Bechdol said in an interview published by the Rome-based agency.

    "We are seeing more and more people essentially on the brink of and moving into famine-like conditions every day," she added.

    Every one of the 2.2 million individuals in Gaza falls within the top three hunger categories, ranging from level three, classified as an emergency, to level five, labeled as a catastrophe, according to the statement.

    It is worth noting that the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) measures hunger levels on a scale from one to five.

    "At this stage, probably about 25 percent of that 2.2 million are in that top-level IPC five category," Bechdol said.

    Before the ongoing Israeli aggression, the people of Gaza had "a self-sustaining fruit and vegetable production sector, populated with greenhouses, while there was also a robust backyard small-scale livestock production sector," Bechdol said.

    "We've recognized from our damage assessments that most of these animal inventories, but also the infrastructure that is needed for that kind of specialty crop production, are virtually destroyed," she stressed.

    The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), in a statement, has expressed its full solidarity with Aaron Bushnell's family and with all American supporters who have taken an honorable stance. Endorsing their struggle and pressure to stop the genocidal war on Gaza. Stating that the American people have awakened and now reject this American involvement, calling on the American administration to cease its support and bias towards Israel.
