This map of Jerusalem shows a black rectangle marking the Temple Mount, the site of the Dome of the Rock. The red dots indicate the approximate locations of Iranian missile impacts in Israel’s capital over the past two weeks. Could the IRGC actually be trying to hit Al Aqsa in some deranged Hail Mary attempt to frame Israel for damaging it?Image
The missed by a whisker this time. Can this really be deliberate? There are no military targets within a mile.

It’s starting to look like this hunch was correct and that the IRGC, in a desperate attempt to set the region on fire and rally jihadists behind them, is trying to blow up the Dome of the Rock and Al-Aqsa Mosque on the Temple Mount. This cluster munition flew directly over Al-Aqsa and landed just 200 meters away. This shell would have destroyed the domes. This seems to be their plan. It is the only possibile reason they are repeatedly targeting the Old City of Jerusalem. There are no military targets there, and most of the population is Muslim.
This shows exactly how close they came to destroying the Al Aqsa mosque on Temple Mount. Alarming. Image
This is the damage that the cluster shell did to a roadway. Al-Aqsa Mosque would have been destroyed. The shell landed about 200 meters west; it was fired from directly east, and so whistled over the roof of the dome, which is just out of sight behind the police vehicles. Image

“...it’s just a shame the world couldn’t know Larijani as I knew him... Larry—as his friends called him—once he’d wiped the blood of tens of thousands of protesters off his jackboots and ended a long day of signing execution orders for suspected homosexuals, was the kind of chap who’d have been an asset at any dinner party—full of witty repartee and hilarious anecdotes about why the world would be so much better without immodest women.”

Thoughts and prayers with John Simpson and all Larijani’s other friends at the BBC. 🙏
The thing about the kind of people who run the BBC, like John Simpson here, is that they imagine themselves to be a cut above the rest of us mere mortals. They can’t help but brag that they know, on a personal level, the people the rest of us simply vilify from afar. It's a sort of wierd, patrician attitude. They imagine themselves as saviours, well menaing T.E. Lawrence types who truly understand the put upon people of the world.
Anyway, can you imagine Simpson saying of say, Netanyahu that he was "clever and reasonable"? Looks who's clever and reaosnable now.

The Qatari pivot towards Israel & the Abraham Accords was probable since Trump’s election, inevitable once Iran was exposed as a paper tiger in June, and now that the IRGC is exiting the realm of geopolitical relevance, Qatar’s pivot is actually happening. Poor Medhi & Tucker.🧵 Image
Qatar's Machiavellian schemes have reached a dead end. Can it make a U-turn?🧵

Nobody did more to support Hamas than Qatar—money, propaganda—so when this video of Qataris running from Iranian missiles in terror was shared in a Hamas group, what was the universal reaction? Laughter & joy. (2/8)
Qatar’s strategy was so clever. Whoever thought it up and implemented it is some true genius—or perhaps a very sharp team of Western consultants. They picked every point of influence in the West and made them their dependents.

It's almost as if they read "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion", believed it was real, and decided it to try it themselves. Who knows? That might actually be true, since The Protocols is a bestseller across the Arab world. (3/8)Image

While the Israeli successes in the Middle East over the last 2 years are astonishing, how has Israel done meeting its war goals in the Gaza Strip?

1. Destroy and disarm Hamas
2. Free the hostages
3. Ensure Gaza no longer threatens Israel

What will be happening in Gaza? (1/8) Image
1. Destroy and disarm Hamas (≈90% achieved)

Hamas has lost around 55% of its territory and about 90% of its initial trained fighting force of 35,000 through death, capture, or defection. While they may have recruited some new men, these recruits are low-quality, and the real bottleneck is arms. They have been hermetically sealed off from resupply for two years. They have lost almost all their heavy weapons and are reduced to IEDs and light arms, using ammunition very sparingly.

Their only real weapons are the Gazan people—more on that below. (2/8)Image
2. Free the hostages (≈99% achieved)

These are the only three hostages still held in Gaza, and all are confirmed dead: Dror Or, Ran Gvili, and Sudthisak Rinthalak. On October 6, 2023—and for many years prior—there were four Israelis held in Gaza, two of them alive. Israel did not go to war for the four; it will not go to war for the three.

So if Israel lacks sufficient motivation to disarm the dregs of Hamas, and the oppressed population lacks the ability, who will? Answer: nobody. So what’s the plan? (3/8)Image

Trump doesn’t get Europe. Trillions spent on windmills that need subsidies, raise electricity prices for everyone, and place an undue burden on the poorest—that’s money well spent, as it allows Europe to restore the landscapes that inspired so many artists like Constable… (1/6) Image
Sicne they also only provide occasional power, you still need all the coal plants, sitting and waiting to be used. But Van Gogh's classic, The Starry Night, is so much better in the original, with the turbines. (2/6) Image
People say that these windmills—sorry, turbines—are hideous and pointless, but who can argue that Da Vinci's masterpiece isn't improved by them? What could possibly make Tuscany more beautiful than more of these? (3/6) Image

Bill Nye thinks the Holocaust could have been avoided if Jews had made more effort to get to know their neighbours.

Zionism means Jews no longer have to stay and die, beg for their lives on bended knee, and can fight back when attacked. That’s why all Jew-haters hate Zionism.
Not all Jews are Zionists, but all Jew-haters are anti-Zionists.
So, aparantly, this clip is ten years old, someone sent it me, and @kahntra posted it recently. It's hard to tell as @billmaher doesn't age.

But so what? The lesson stands. Im fact, even more, since this is before these defamation clowns has the "genocide" or "famine" libels as cover.
