This was the Iranian Axis.

A project spanning decades, led by the Quds Force of the IRGC. Tens, if not hundreds, of billions of dollars were invested in this project by the regime instead of in the welfare of the Iranian people.

At the beginning of 2024, it seemed that the axis was at its peak strength, but much has changed since then. Given all the developments over the past year, the Iranian regime has been forced to make significant adjustments to its security doctrine to ensure its survival.
A overview thread: Iran’s security doctrine consists of four main pillars:

1. Proxy warfare – Iran relies on pro-Iranian groups such as Hezbollah, Houthis, militias in Iraq, and Palestinian terrorist groups to project power and deter Iran’s enemies without being drawn into direct confrontation.

Today is “Wikipedia Day,” and I think it’s a good opportunity to talk about the rabbit hole that is Arabic Wikipedia. It’s bizarre how, no matter how bad some English entries are, Arabic Wikipedia is always worse, full of misinformation, lies, and antisemitism.

some examples: The Arabic entry for “The Protocols of the Elders of Zion” describes the book as:

“A leaked document whose authenticity is disputed between those who believe it’s genuine and those who believe it’s fake.”

During more than a year of war against #Hezbollah, the #IDF captured a significant amount of their equipment. Initially, this was achieved through dozens of covert operations near the border with #Lebanon, and later during the ground operation. A month after the ceasefire, the IDF is now summarizing the operation and presenting some of the captured equipment to the public. A short Thread🧵: The ground operation, involved four divisions. IDF forces operated against Hezbollah in over 30 villages and towns across southern Lebanon, uncovering and destroying various terror infrastructures, eliminating terrorists, and seizing a large number of weapons.

Hezbollah’s Plan to Conquer the Galilee:

#Hezbollah’s flagship plan for an attack on #Israel was the “Conquering the Galilee” operation, or at least parts of it in northern Israel.
What does this plan entail, and what is its purpose?
How did Hezbollah prepare for it? How has the #IDF disrupted Hezbollah’s ability to execute this plan in the past year? Can Hezbollah carry it out soon? A Thread🧵 After Israel’s withdrawal from southern Lebanon, Hezbollah’s position changed significantly.
From operating as guerrilla forces against the IDF in southern Lebanon, they began to control southern Lebanon while increasing their involvement in Lebanon’s political system.

Hezbollah's elite unit:

Radwan Force is the special and dangerous unit of #Hezbollah, the one that was supposed to carry out an extensive attack against #Israel. who are the Radwan Force, what are their goals and capabilities, and what has happened to the unit since the beginning of the war? A thread 🧵 After Israel withdrew from Lebanon, Hezbollah undertook a massive military buildup. Hezbollah’s commander Ibrahim Aqil established a special unit known as the “Rapid Intervention Force.” This unit was made up of several hundred of Hezbollah’s best-trained fighters,

Hezbollah’s Underground Lebanon.

For decades, #Hezbollah has built a huge network of tunnels that serves as a base for their activities.
With strategic tunnels, and tunnels built for an attack against #Israel, this is a huge challenge for the #IDF, here is how it was built & works. a Thread 🧵 Since the 1980s, Hezbollah has been developing and building an extensive underground tunnel network in Lebanon, funded by Iran and with assistance from North Korean and Iranian Revolutionary Guard advisors.

#Hezbollah known as a Lebanese terrorist organization backed by the Iranian regime.

How did Hezbollah turn from an ordinary terrorist organization into an international drug cartel and a global threat, and how do they use the drug networks to finance their terrorism?

Thread🧵 Cannabis and opium fields in Lebanon’s Baqaa Valley aren’t new. They’ve been there for nearly 100 years.
In the 30s, the French Mandate struggled after a crackdown on hashish in Bekaa. Since the 60s, drug production grew, and during the Civil War and Lebanon’s economic collapse,

1. הקשבתי אתמול בערב לדברי הנשיא וכאב לי מאוד.

מהיכרותי את אחורי הקלעים, היה מתווה רציני על השולחן, קצת חוסר הסכמות, מתווה שדרש ויתורים כואבים מכל הצדדים.

פתאום, אחרי הכל, הנשיא הביא מתווה חד צדדי ומוטה. מתווה של צד אחד.

האכזבה הייתה קשה. >

2. כתבתי בתגובה ל @amit_segal שלא מדובר ב'מתווה העם' אלא במתווה של 'הצד הצודק והאשכנזי' מתוך כאב אמיתי על מתווה והסכמות רציניים מאוד שהלכו לפח.

העיתונאית חן ארצי סרור הגיבה לי ושאלה: האם אני מזרחי? הגבתי לה שמדובר כמובן ב'אשכנזים כביטוי' בלי להסביר את כוונתי יותר מידי. >
