3 Cheers for our good ally Israel! Est. 1200 BC

Over 2 million Brazilians hit the streets in support of Israel. This is likely the largest protest in World history.





 
Over much of the World:

- the Left hates Israel
- the Right mostly likes Israel, or is at least neutral towards Israel
- the Far--Right hates Israel

In Islamic countries, they ALL hate Israel (left, right, far-right, centrist, etc.)



Rightist Brazilian leader Bolsonaro stands up to Latin American Leftists, and stands proudly with the 2 million person outdoor rally in support of Israel. Left winger Lula predictably came out in opposition to Israel (no surprises there...).

If both Brazil and Argentina can put, and keep, right-of-center leadership in place for a long time, they could have something of an economic Renaissance.

Bolsonaro has to take back power from that squirrely leftist anti-Israel/anti-USA punk Lula.
 
Everyone was on crazy alert for Y2K....crickets

Everyone was convinced the Mayans had it right....crickets

Everyone is certain something is happening tomorrow.....I'm going with more crickets

Eclipses have been happening all over the universe for eternity. Nothing is different about this one except maybe the location.

Crickets.

Surprise, surprise, surprise....!

Hamas fails to uphold its end of the deal for a ceasefire.

Who could have ever seen that coming...?

"Hamas has indicated it is currently unable to identify and track down 40 Israeli hostages needed for the first phase of a ceasefire deal, according to an Israeli official and a source familiar with the discussions, raising fears that more hostages may be dead than are publicly known.

The framework that has been laid out by negotiators says that during a first six-week pause in the fighting, Hamas should release 40 of the remaining hostages, including all the women as well as sick and elderly men. In exchange, hundreds of Palestinian prisoners would be released from Israeli prisons.

Hamas has told international mediators – which include Qatar and Egypt - it does not have 40 living hostages who match those criteria for release, both sources said."


WTF did Hamas do to the hostages? Go and murder them?

How Israel plays this is out of our hands of course, but things might get a whole, whole lot worse for Gaza if they murdered the hostages, I guess we'll have to see...

I've got it. Let's tie this all together in a nice bow.

Once the military finishes building that pier for relief aid in Gaza, for charity relief, the USA should ship them a load of Red Heifers (Red Angus female cattle -- with blemishes and all), unload them at that pier, and walk them into town. Here's the beef! Heads would explode.
 
Tousi TV (UK) reports

Multiples waves of hundreds of drones are arriving is Israeli airspace from Iran and Lebanon.

Iran is reported to have had some level of success against Israel radar in some sort of cyber attack.

News is coming in real fast. Very fluid. Multi wave attacks. Israel anti aircraft defenses appear to be working well so far.
 
Per Tousi TV

Euros (esp UK and France) are lining up with the USA on Israel’s side.
And multiple Arab states are leaning towards Israel, if not outright declaring support for Israel, including neighbor Jordan.

Remember, Iran is NOT Arab. Persians and Arabs have historical enmity.
 
Over 500 “slow” drones so far. Experts expect fast even supersonic missiles in future waves from Iran.

Slow drones also entering Israel from Yemen now.
 
English Prime Minister gives strong unwavering support for Israel.

US, UK, French planes helping Israel intercept the “slow” drones.
 
Jordan and Israel close their airspace to all but their militaries and Allied military aircraft.
 
Jordan declares itself an ally of Israel against Iran.

Jordan is pissed that Iran invaded its airspace to attack Israel. (Jordan also doesn't want the Gazans moving into Jordan).
 
French Foreign Minister, per CBS:

"France reaffirms its attachment to Israel's security, and assures of its solidarity."


UK Prime Minister Sunak, per CBS:

Condemns Iran's regime and states: "The UK will stand up for Israel's security."
 
Reports (unconfirmed), new wave --- and yep, this time it's (fast) ballistic missiles coming from Iran.

Chop's speculation---> Iran's tactic was probably to try to eat up as many Iron Dome counter-missiles as possible with the massive slow drone attack, then hit them with the ballistic missiles hoping many will get through. Either that, or coordinate the fast and slow waves so the hit at the same time.

Egypt "expressing concern". (internal politics make it very difficult for Egypt to actually ally with Israel)
