"But if we do not, we will do whatever it takes to defend the State of Israel and the border of Israel."

So this guy defends the border of Israel, meaning stationing the army beyond the border so nothing can get to it. Interesting. Extends "the hand of peace" US-style: we are here to bring you peace, please do not resist.

Having significantly degraded Hezbollahs' capabilities and razed Gaza (and a lot of Hamas), Israel now looks to secure the Golan Heights/border with Syria and neuter a future Syrian military capability vis a vis Israel.

I'd also expect Israel to seek to weaken further an Iran rendered far more vulnerable by the collapse of the Assad regime.

I know a lot of people on Mastodon share posts by @Free_Press, but I really wish they were more careful in validating their news. I have counted at least 4 separate times they posted items (on #Ukraine, #Israel and #MiddleEast at least) that turned out to be rumour or plain false. Some people, including myself, even asked questions about them but got no response. No apology or correction was issued.

It makes me unlikely to boost their posts. I prefer to not partake in spreading misinformation.


After 13 years of civil war, Syria's opposition militias sensed an opportunity to loosen President Bashar Assad's grip on power when, about six months ago, they communicated to Turkey plans for a major offensive and felt they had received its tacit approval. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/12/09/world/syria-rebels-assad-ouster/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #syria #turkey #middleeast #israel #gaza #iran #lebanon #hezbollah

Turmoil Intensifies as Gaza Hospital Hit Amid Renewed Middle East Conflicts


In Syria the secularist Baath party, under the mass murdering dictatorship of Bashar al-Assad, which was supported by the rancid authoritarian and Shia Iranian government, was defeated by a Israeli-Turkish-US-Sunni Arab backed coalition that used to be known as Al Qaeda Syria; the same folks behind ISIS and the World Tower attacks. Everyone is a sociopath, fraud, and gangster in this region.

Heck of a job Biden. Meathead.

Below is a prospective analysis of the event’s consequences, ranked from most to least probable, covering Israel’s global position, the impact on the Shiite axis and Iran, Russia’s posture and the repercussions for the Ukrainian front, as well as a SWOT analysis of regional developments.

Is this the end of Christianity and the church in Syria? Will countries across Europe and the USA open their doors to Christians fleeing? These are two questions no one has yet answered.

An international Catholic charity is rushing to the help of Christians suffering in Syria, asking for prayers and are also fundraising for emergency aid in response to the resurgence of violence.

#Israeli historian produces vast database of war crimes in #Gaza

Lee Mordechai says his country is committing genocide, as his report documents a wide range of atrocities committed by Israeli forces

... the historian has produced what Haaretz calls “the most methodical and detailed documentation in Hebrew (there is also an English translation) of the war crimes that Israel is perpetrating in Gaza”.

Some of the most shocking incidents documented by Mordechai include a Palestinian woman with a child being shot while waving a white flag, starving girls being crushed to death while queuing for bread, a handcuffed 62-year-old Palestinian man getting run over by an Israeli tank and an air strike targeting people trying to help a wounded boy.
