“One of the participants in the operation against Mr. McMaster, Barbara Ledeen, said she was brought on by someone ‘with access to McMaster’s calendar.’”
Does she still work for @ChuckGrassley/Senate Judiciary comm GOP?
“When confronted with details about her involvement in the McMaster operation, Ledeen insisted that she was merely a messenger...she passed the message to a man she believed to be a Project Veritas operative.” The plan was to try to honeytrap the then US national security advisor
piece further down reports that Ledeen retired from the Senate this year.
Would the FBI ever investigate something like this? a bunch of US operatives trying to entrap the US national security advisor with a woman they were paying for that purpose?
“One woman living at the house, Anna Khait, was part of several operations against various targets, including a State Dept employee.” nytimes.com/2021/05/13/us/…
more on Khait, born in St. Petersburg, Russia; photographed with Steve Bannon. projectveritas.exposed/anna-khait
Re NYT Barbara Ledeen/Project Veritas orchestrating op v McMaster, this shows Barbara Ledeen writing Flynn’s then attorney Robert Kelner in Dec. 2018 passing message from Derek Harvey. Flynn’s attorney reported the message to DOJ & said not responding

from Khait’s Twitter. looks like Patrick Byrne in her group on sunday
The reported Ledeen-involved operation to entrap & remove the US national security advisor McMaster occurred just a few months before Giuliani involved operation to remove the US ambassador to Ukraine, reportedly under current investigation, & which led to Trump’s 1st impeachment
And which is reportedly being investigated to see if it was secretly conducted on behalf of unidentified paid foreign interests
Looks like Khait deleted the tweet of her and Patrick Byrne among a group together on Sunday. Here are screenshots of the tweet and the photo. Remembered this morning that Byrne reportedly also had a relationship with Russian agent Butina and reportedly reported on it to FBI.

🧵Excerpts of US State Dept report to Congress concerning Israel’s compliance with NSM-20. (I typed these quickly, apologies for typoes in advance.):

“Israel has, upon request, shared some information on specific incidents implicating IHL, some details of its targeting choices, and some battle damage assessments. Although we have gained insight into Israel’s procedures and rules, we do not have complete information on how these processes are implemented. Israel has not shared complete information to verify whether U.S. defense articles covered under NSM-20 were specifically used in actions that have been alleged as violations of IHL or IHRL in Gaza, or in the West Bank and East Jerusalem during the period of this report.
“Limited information has been shared to date in response to USG inquiries under review to determine whether U.S. munitions were used in incidents involving civilian harm. However, certain Israel-operated systems are entirely U.S.-origin (e.g., crewed attack aircraft) and are likely to have been involved in incidents that raise concerns about Israel’s IHL compliance.
“One specific area of concern is the impact of Israel’s military operations on humanitarian actors. Despite regular  engagement from humanitarian actors and repeated USG interventions with Israeli officials on deconfliction/coordination procedures, the IDF has struck humanitarian workers and facilities.

🧵State Dept spox Matt Miller: “We actually think that a Rafah operation would weaken Israel's position both in these talks and writ large. …a major military operation in Rafah would further weaken Israel’s standing in the world, would further create distance from its partners in the region, who actually share Israel's goal of seeing Hamas defeated and want to see a Hamas replaced with a different governance structure in Gaza.”
And then also, if you look, just look at Hamas’ track record. They've never cared about Palestinian civilian lives. If they did, they would not have launched these attacks in the first place, which they knew would produce a response. They wouldn't hide behind civilians, and they would have agreed to a ceasefire long ago so I just don't think that that that the argument holds any water with respect to the talks itself.
They (the Government of Israel) have made quite clear they intend to conduct an operation, the operation they have conducted so far has been limited. They have talked, quite openly about conducting a major military operation in Rafah. We are opposed to that, but we'll see what happens. We have made quite clear, we don't want to see it happen. We continued and I should say, we do continue to engage with them about other options that they can pursue.

🧵NSC’s John Kirby: The President and his team have been clear for several weeks that we do not support a major ground operation in Rafah, where more than a million people are sheltering with nowhere safe to go.
The President has said that publicly, and he has communicated that repeatedly and straightforwardly to Prime Minister Netanyahu.
We proposed alternative methods of defeating Hamas that do not involve a major ground operation in Rafah, and those conversations with the Israeli government are ongoing.

State Dept. Spox Matt Miller on US holding back 2000 and 500 pound bombs from Israel: We have paused one shipment of near term assistance, and we are reviewing others.
Miller on Rafah: We do not believe Israel has presented a credible humanitarian plan that would account for both the potential harm to civilian life…of an operation in such a crowded area, or for properly evacuating and caring for the over million people who were there.
Miller: not going to speak to what actions we might take in the future. We make these assessments day by day based on what is happening on the ground and make our appropriate policy determinations based on those facts.

WSJ: “Israel has given Hamas a week to agree to a cease-fire deal or it will begin a military operation in Rafah, Egyptian officials said Friday…

Egypt worked with Israel on a revised cease-fire proposal that it presented to Hamas last weekend, according to Egyptian officials. …But Yahya Sinwar…hasn’t responded, the officials said. 

Egyptian officials say Hamas is seeking a long-term truce and guarantees from the U.S. that a cease-fire will be respected by Israel. Hamas officials have expressed concerns that the latest proposal is still too vague and gives Israel room to restart the fighting.

“Egyptian officials said they have invited senior Hamas officials to return to Cairo in the coming days to continue the negotiations. Hamas in a statement Thursday said that its negotiating team will go to Egypt soon to discuss the terms.
“Hamas officials have voiced concerns that Netanyahu was provoking the group into refusing the proposal in order to invade Rafah and blame Hamas for the failure of the negotiations. The group is expected to respond to the proposal with a counter offer rather than outrightly rejecting it, according to the Egyptian officials.”
