ISRAEL GETS MORE TERRORIST AND WEAPONS DEPOS IN LEBANON.
WARN THE PEOPLE-WW3
EZEKIEL 33:1-6
1 Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2 Son of man, speak to the children of thy people, and say unto them, When I bring the sword upon a land, if the people of the land take a man of their coasts, and set him for their watchman:
3 If when he seeth the sword come upon the land, he blow the trumpet, and warn the people;
4 Then whosoever heareth the sound of the trumpet, and taketh not warning; if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be upon his own head.
5 He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning; his blood shall be upon him. But he that taketh warning shall deliver his soul.
6 But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman’s hand.
DANIEL 11:40-45 (WW3 BREAKDOWN)
40 And at the time of the end shall the king of the south( EGYPT) push at him:(EU DICTATOR IN ISRAEL) and the king of the north (RUSSIA AND MUSLIM HORDES OF EZEK 38+39) shall come against him like a whirlwind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he shall enter into the countries, and shall overflow and pass over.
41 He shall enter also into the glorious land, and many countries shall be overthrown: but these shall escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the chief of the children of Ammon.(JORDAN)
42 He shall stretch forth his hand also upon the countries: and the land of Egypt shall not escape.
43 But he shall have power over the treasures of gold and of silver, and over all the precious things of Egypt: and the Libyans and the Ethiopians shall be at his steps.
44 But tidings out of the east(CHINA 2ND WAVE OF WW3) and out of the north(RUSSIA, MUSLIMS WHATS LEFT FROM WAVE 1) shall trouble him:(EU DICTATOR IN ISRAEL) therefore he shall go forth with great fury to destroy, and utterly to make away many.( 1/3RD OF EARTHS POPULATION)
45 And he shall plant the tabernacles of his palace between the seas in the glorious holy mountain; yet he shall come to his end, and none shall help him.

GENESIS 16:11-12
11 And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Behold, thou art with child, and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael;(ARAB/MUSLIM) because the LORD hath heard thy affliction.
12 And he will be a wild man;(RIOTS-BURNING-MURDEROUUS RAGE) his hand will be against every man,(ISLAM WANTS WORLD DOMINATION) and every man's hand against him;(DEFENDING THEMSELVES) and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.(ARAB/MUSLIMS LIVE WITH ISRAELIS)
ISAIAH 33:1,18-19 Woe to thee that spoilest,(destroys) and thou wast not spoiled;(destroyed) and dealest treacherously, and they dealt not treacherously with thee! when thou shalt cease to spoil,(destroy) thou shalt be spoiled;(destroyed) and when thou shalt make an end to deal treacherously, they shall deal treacherously with thee.
18 Thine heart shall meditate terror. Where is the scribe? where is the receiver? where is he that counted the towers?
19 Thou shalt not see a fierce people, a people of a deeper speech than thou canst perceive; of a stammering tongue, that thou canst not understand.
JOHN 16:2
2 They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.(ISLAM MURDERS IN THE NAME OF THEIR MOON GOD ALLAH)
ISAIAH 14:12-23
12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, (SATAN) son of the morning! (HEBREW MEANS CRESCENT MOON ANGEL-ISLAM OVIOUSLY)(SATAN IS THE GOD OF ISLAM) how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.
Ecclesiastes 9:10
10 Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might, for in the realm of the dead, where you are going, there is neither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom.
EZEKIEL 31:10-17
10 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast lifted up thyself in height, and he hath shot up his top among the thick boughs, and his heart is lifted up in his height;
11 I have therefore delivered him into the hand of the mighty one of the heathen; he shall surely deal with him: I have driven him out for his wickedness.
12 And strangers, the terrible of the nations, have cut him off, and have left him: upon the mountains and in all the valleys his branches are fallen, and his boughs are broken by all the rivers of the land; and all the people of the earth are gone down from his shadow, and have left him.
13 Upon his ruin shall all the fowls of the heaven remain, and all the beasts of the field shall be upon his branches:
14To the end that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves for their height, neither shoot up their top among the thick boughs, neither their trees stand up in their height, all that drink water: for they are all delivered unto death, to the nether parts of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down to the pit.(HELL).
15Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the day when he went down to the grave I caused a mourning: I covered the deep for him, and I restrained the floods thereof, and the great waters were stayed: and I caused Lebanon to mourn for him, and all the trees of the field fainted for him.
16 I made the nations to shake at the sound of his fall, when I cast him down to hell with them that descend into the pit: and all the trees of Eden, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that drink water, shall be comforted in the nether parts of the earth.
17They also went down into hell with him unto [them that be] slain with the sword; and [they that were] his arm, [that] dwelt under his shadow in the midst of the heathen.
18To whom art thou thus like in glory and in greatness among the trees of Eden? yet shalt thou be brought down with the trees of Eden unto the nether parts of the earth: thou shalt lie in the midst of the uncircumcised with [them that be] slain by the sword. This [is] Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord GOD.
EZEKIEL 32:17-32
17 It came to pass also in the twelfth year, in the fifteenth [day] of the month, [that] the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
18 Son of man, wail for the multitude of Egypt, and cast them down, [even] her, and the daughters of the famous nations, unto the nether parts of the earth, with them that go down into the pit.
19 Whom dost thou pass in beauty? go down, and be thou laid with the uncircumcised.
20 They shall fall in the midst of [them that are] slain by the sword: she is delivered to the sword: draw her and all her multitudes.
21 The strong among the mighty shall speak to him out of the midst of hell with them that help him: they are gone down, they lie uncircumcised, slain by the sword.
22 Asshur [is] there and all her company: his graves [are] about him: all of them slain, fallen by the sword:
23 Whose graves are set in the sides of the pit, and her company is round about her grave: all of them slain, fallen by the sword, which caused terror in the land of the living.
24 There [is] Elam (IRAN) and all her multitude round about her grave, all of them slain, fallen by the sword, which are gone down uncircumcised into the nether parts of the earth, which caused their terror in the land of the living; yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit.
25 They have set her a bed in the midst of the slain with all her multitude: her graves [are] round about him: all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword: though their terror was caused in the land of the living, yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit: he is put in the midst of [them that be] slain.
26 There [is] Meshech, Tubal,(RUSSIA) (GERMANY, TURKEY) and all her multitude: her graves [are] round about him: all of them uncircumcised, slain by the sword, though they caused their terror in the land of the living.
27And they shall not lie with the mighty [that are] fallen of the uncircumcised, which are gone down to hell with their weapons of war: and they have laid their swords under their heads, but their iniquities shall be upon their bones, though [they were] the terror of the mighty in the land of the living.
28 Yea, thou shalt be broken in the midst of the uncircumcised, and shalt lie with [them that are] slain with the sword.
29 There [is] Edom,(JORDAN) her kings, and all her princes, which with their might are laid by [them that were] slain by the sword: they shall lie with the uncircumcised, and with them that go down to the pit.
30 There [be] the princes of the north, all of them, and all the Zidonians, which are gone down with the slain; with their terror they are ashamed of their might; and they lie uncircumcised with [them that be] slain by the sword, and bear their shame with them that go down to the pit.
31 Pharaoh shall see them, and shall be comforted over all his multitude, [even] Pharaoh and all his army slain by the sword, saith the Lord GOD.
32 For I have caused my terror in the land of the living: and he shall be laid in the midst of the uncircumcised with [them that are] slain with the sword, [even] Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord GOD.
EZEKIEL 38:1-23
1 And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
2 Son of man, set thy face against Gog,(RULER) the land of Magog,(RUSSIA) the chief prince of Meshech (MOSCOW) and Tubal,(TOBOLSK) and prophesy against him,
3 And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog,(LEADER OF RUSSIA) the chief prince of Meshech(MOSCOW) and Tubal:TOBOLSK)
4 And I (GOD) will turn thee back, and put hooks into thy jaws,(GOD FORCES THE RUSSIA-MUSLIMS TO MARCH) and I will bring thee forth, and all thine army, horses and horsemen, all of them clothed with all sorts of armour, even a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords:
5 Persia,(IRAN,IRAQ) Ethiopia, and Libya with them; all of them with shield and helmet:
6 Gomer,(GERMANY) and all his bands; the house of Togarmah (TURKEY) of the north quarters, and all his bands: and many people with thee.(AFRICAN MUSLIMS,SUDAN,TUNESIA ETC)
7 Be thou prepared, and prepare for thyself, thou, and all thy company that are assembled unto thee, and be thou a guard unto them.
8 After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which have been always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely all of them.
9 Thou shalt ascend and come like a storm, thou shalt be like a cloud to cover the land, thou, and all thy bands, and many people with thee.(RUSSIA-EGYPT AND MUSLIMS)
10 Thus saith the Lord GOD; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, and thou shalt think an evil thought:
11 And thou shalt say,(RUSSIA-ARAB-MUSLIMS) I will go up to the land of unwalled villages;(ISRAEL) I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely, all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates,
12 To take a spoil,(OIL IS IN SPOIL) and to take a prey; to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land.
13 Sheba, and Dedan,(SAUDI-ARABIA) and the merchants of Tarshish,(SPAIN) with all the young lions thereof,(ENGLAND,AND ALL ITS ASSOCIATES-CANADA,AUSTRALIA-NEW ZEALAND, USA, AND WESTERN ENGLISH SPEAKING NATIONS) shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?(OIL IS IN SPOIL-I BELIEVE THATS WHY RUSSIA,ARAB/MUSLIMS MARCH TO ISRAEL)
14 Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say unto Gog, Thus saith the Lord GOD; In that day when my people of Israel dwelleth safely, shalt thou not know it?
15 And thou shalt come from thy place out of the north parts, thou, and many people with thee, all of them riding upon horses, a great company, and a mighty army:
16 And thou shalt come up against my people of Israel, as a cloud to cover the land; it shall be in the latter days, and I will bring thee against my land, that the heathen may know me, when I shall be sanctified in thee, O Gog, before their eyes.
EZEKIEL 39:11-22
11 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will give unto Gog (RUSSIA/ARAB/MUSLIMS) a place there of graves in Israel, the valley of the passengers (EAST OF THE DEAD SEA IN JORDAN VALLEY) on the east of the sea: and it shall stop the noses of the passengers: and there shall they bury Gog (RUSSIAN) and all his multitude:(ARAB/MUSLIM HORDE) and they shall call it The valley of Hamongog.(BURIEL SITE OF THE 300 MILLION,RUSSIAN/ARAB/MUSLIMS)
12 And seven months shall the house of Israel be burying of them, that they may cleanse the land.(OF ISRAEL)
13 Yea, all the people of the land (OF ISRAEL) shall bury them; and it shall be to them a renown the day that I (GOD-JESUS) shall be glorified, saith the Lord GOD.
14 And they shall sever out men of continual employment,(NUCLEAR ATOMIC BOMB EXPERTS) passing through the land to bury with the passengers those that remain upon the face of the earth, to cleanse it: after the end of seven months shall they search.
15 And the passengers that pass through the land, when any seeth a man’s bone, then shall he set up a sign by it,(WON'T TOUCH IT) till the buriers have buried it (PROPERLY) in the valley of Hamongog.(RUSSIA/ARAB/MUSLIMS NEW BURIEL SITE)(EAST OF THE DEAD SEA IN THE JORDAN VALLEY)
16 And also the name of the city shall be Hamonah. Thus shall they cleanse the land.(OF THE ISRAEL-GOD HATERS)
17 And, thou son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD; Speak unto every feathered fowl,(500 MILLION MIGRATING BIRDS THREW ISRAEL EVERY SPRING,FALL) and to every beast of the field, Assemble yourselves, and come; gather yourselves on every side to my sacrifice that I do sacrifice for you, even a great sacrifice upon the mountains of Israel, that ye may eat flesh, and drink blood.(OF THE RUSSIAN/ARAB/MUSLIM ARMIES)
18 Ye shall eat the flesh of the mighty, and drink the blood of the princes of the earth, of rams, of lambs, and of goats, of bullocks, all of them fatlings of Bashan.
19 And ye shall eat fat till ye be full, and drink blood till ye be drunken, of my sacrifice which I have sacrificed for you.
20 Thus ye shall be filled at my table with horses and chariots, with mighty men, and with all men of war, saith the Lord GOD.
21 And I will set my glory among the heathen, and all the heathen shall see my judgment that I have executed, and my hand that I have laid upon them.
22 So the house of Israel shall know that I am the LORD their God from that day and forward.
REVELATION 19:17-18
17 And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God;(AGAINST ALL NATIONS ARMIES THAT COME AGAINST JERUSALEM AND ISRAEL)
18 That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great.

7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse:(CHLORES GREEN) and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth,(2 BILLION) to kill with sword,(WEAPONS) and with hunger,(FAMINE) and with death,(INCURABLE DISEASES) and with the beasts of the earth.(ANIMAL TO HUMAN DISEASE).

34 I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken,(IN WW3 JUDGEMENT) and the other shall be left.(half earths population 4 billion die in the 7 yr trib)
35 Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken,(IN WW3 JUDGEMENT) and the other left.
36 Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken,(IN WW3 JUDGEMENT) and the other left.
37 And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he said unto them, Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered together.(Christians have new bodies,this is the people against Jerusalem during the 7 yr treaty)(Christians bodies are not being eaten by the birds).THESE ARE JUDGEMENT SCRIPTURES-NOT RAPTURE SCRIPTURES.BECAUSE NOT HALF OF PEOPLE ON EARTH ARE CHRISTIANS.AND THE CONTEXT IN LUKE 17 IS THE 7 YEAR TRIBULATION OR 7 YR TREATY PERIOD.WHICH IS JUDGEMENT ON THE EARTH.NOT 50% RAPTURED TO HEAVEN.
MATTHEW 24:37-42 (THESE ARE JUDGEMENT SCRIPTURES-SURE NOT RAPTURE SCRIPTURES)(50% OF EARTHS POPULATION DIE)
37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken,(IN WW3 JUDGEMENT) and the other left.(ON EARTH)

13 And it shall come to pass in that day, that a great tumult from the LORD shall be among them; and they shall lay hold every one on the hand of his neighbour, and his hand shall rise up against the hand of his neighbour.(1/2-3 BILLION DIE IN WW3)(THIS IS AN ATOMIC BOMB EFFECT)
EZEKIEL 32:18-29 (NOTICE ALL THE COUNTRIES LAND PROMISED ISRAEL BY GOD ARE IN THE JORDAN VALLEY BURIED)
18 “Son of man, wail for the multitudes of Egypt, and consign her and the daughters of the mighty nations to the depths of the earth with those who descend to the Pit:
19 Whom do you surpass in beauty? Go down and be placed with the uncircumcised! (IN HELL FIRES)
20 They will fall among those slain by the sword. The sword is appointed! Let them drag her away along with all her multitudes.
21 Mighty chiefs will speak from the midst of Sheol about Egypt and her allies: ‘They have come down and lie with the uncircumcised, with those slain by the sword.’
22 Assyria (SYRIA) is there with her whole company; her graves are all around her. All of them are slain, fallen by the sword.
23 Her graves are set in the depths of the Pit, and her company is all around her grave. All of them are slain, fallen by the sword—those who once spread terror in the land of the living.
24 Elam (IRAN) is there with all her multitudes around her grave. All of them are slain, fallen by the sword—those who went down uncircumcised to the earth below, who once spread their terror in the land of the living. They bear their disgrace with those who descend to the Pit.
25 Among the slain they prepare a resting place for Elam with all her hordes, with her graves all around her. All of them are uncircumcised, slain by the sword, although their terror was once spread in the land of the living. They bear their disgrace with those who descend to the Pit. They are placed among the slain.
26 Meshech and Tubal (RUSSIA) are there with all their multitudes, with their graves all around them. All of them are uncircumcised, slain by the sword, because they spread their terror in the land of the living.
27 They do not lie down with the fallen warriors of old, who went down to Sheol with their weapons of war, whose swords were placed under their heads, whose shields rested on their bones, although the terror of the mighty was once in the land of the living.
28 But you too will be shattered and lie down among the uncircumcised, with those slain by the sword.
29 Edom (JORDAN) is there, and all her kings and princes, who despite their might are laid among those slain by the sword. They lie down with the uncircumcised, with those who descend to the Pit.THIS IS RIGHT FROM 93:
SECOND ANGEL: MIDDLE EAST
Then I saw that the second angel had a sickle in his hand, such as is used in harvesting.The second angel said: "Harvest time has come in Israel and the countries all the way to Iran."I saw those countries in a few split seconds."All of Turkey and those [inaudible] countries that have refused me and refused my message of love shall hate each other and kill one another."I saw the angel raise the sickle and come down on all the Middle East countries. I saw Iran, Persia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, all of Georgia - Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Israel, all of Asia Minor - full of blood. I saw blood all over these countries. And I saw fire; Nuclear weapons used in many of those countries. Smoke rising from everywhere. Sudden destruction – men destroying one another. I heard these words:"Israel, Oh Israel, the great judgment has come." The angel said, "The chosen, the church, the remnant, shall be purified. The Spirit of God shall prepare the children of God."I saw fires rising to heaven.The angel said: "This is the final judgment. My church shall be purified, protected and ready for the final day. Men will die from thirst. Water shall be scarce all over the Middle East. Rivers shall dry up, and men will fight for water in those countries."The angel showed me that the United Nations shall be broken in pieces because of the crisis in the Middle East. There shall be no more United Nations. The angel with the sickle shall reap the harvest.
PSALMS 83:1-8 (GODS LAND PROMISED TO ISRAEL)
1 O God, do not remain silent;do not turn a deaf ear,do not stand aloof, O God.
2 See how your enemies growl, how your foes rear their heads.
3 With cunning they (ARAB,MUSLIMS) conspire against your people;they plot against those you cherish.(ISRAELIS)
4 “Come,” they say, “let us destroy them as a nation, so that Israel’s name is remembered no more.”
5 With one mind they plot together;(TREATIES) they form an alliance against you—
6 the tents of Edom (JORDAN) and the Ishmaelites, (EGYPTIAN ARABS SO CALLED PALESTIANS) of Moab (JORDAN) and the Hagrites,(EGYPT)
7 Byblos,(HEZBOLLOH) Ammon (JORDAN) and Amalek,(SYRIAN ARABS IN THE SINAI) Philistia,(ARABS) with the people of Tyre (LEBANON).
8 Even Assyria (SYRIA) has joined them to reinforce Lot’s descendants.
GENESIS 6:11-13
11 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.(WORLD TERRORISM,MURDERS)(HAMAS IN HEBREW IS VIOLENCE)
12 And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.
13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence (TERRORISM)(HAMAS) through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.
1 OF 3 GOD GAVE THEM OVER TO
1-PROMISCUOUS SEX AMOUNG EACH OTHER.
ROMANS 1:24
24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: (THE 60S FREE SEX)
2 OF 3 GOD GAVE THEM OVER TO
2-SODOMITES - MEN LUSTING MEN, AND WOMEN LUSTING AFTER WOMEN.
ROMANS 1:26-27
26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
3 OF 3 GOD GAVE THEM OVER TO
3-A DEPRAVED MIND-ANY SIN GOES.
ROMANS 1:28-31
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER GOD GAVE THEM OVER TO THESE 3 DEPRAVED ABOMINATION SINS?
OH OH NOAHS DAY. WHAT HAPPENED IN NOAHS DAY. THE WHOLE WORLD WAS JUDGED BY WATER.
GENESIS 6:7,17
7 And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.
17 And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth shall die.
GENESIS 7:4
4 For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth.
GENESIS 8:16
16 And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth.
WELL THE SODOMITES PICKED THE RIGHT SIGN OF A RAINBOW FOR JUDGEMENT. THE SODOMITES TRYED TO STEAL GODS SIGN THAT THE WHOLE EARTH WILL NEVER DIE FROM FLOOD WATERS AGAIN. BUT THE JUDGEMENT THIS TIME IS GOING TO BE BY FIRE.NOT WATER.
2 PETER 3:7
7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
EZIKIEL 38:12-13
13 Sheba, and Dedan,(SAUDIA ARABIA) and the merchants of Tarshish,(ENGLAND) with all the young lions thereof,(USA,CANADA,AUSTRALIA,NEW ZEALAND,EU,ENGLAND,ENGLISH SPEAKING shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company to take a prey? to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil? (AGAINST ISRAEL)
14 Therefore, son of man, prophesy and say unto Gog, (RUSSIA AND HER MUSLIMS HORDES)Thus saith the Lord GOD; In that day when my people of Israel dwelleth safely, shalt thou not know it?

2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:
3 And I will bless them that bless thee,(ISRAELIS) and curse (DESTROY) him that curseth thee:(DESTROY THEM) and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.
And here are the bounderies of the land that Israel will inherit either through war or peace or God in the future. God says its Israels land and only Israels land. They will have every inch God promised them of this land in the future.

PM holds security consult; Ben Gurion Airport open as usual-New wave of strikes in Lebanon as Israel braces for potential major Hezbollah attack-Home Front Command issues new guidelines for residents of Haifa and northward; IDF says it struck more than 400 rocket launchers Saturday, as Hezbollah fires nearly 100 at Israel-By Emanuel Fabian and Agencies 21 September 2024, 10:50 pm
The Israel Defense Forces carried out a wave of airstrikes against some 110 Hezbollah targets in Lebanon Saturday night, including rocket launchers, with the army saying it had identified preparations by the terror group to launch major rocket attacks against Israel.The strikes came after several waves of attacks on Hezbollah sites in Lebanon earlier in the day, which the IDF said hit some 290 Hezbollah targets, including rocket launchers and other facilities.In all, thousands of rocket launcher barrels were hit in the strikes, the IDF said, while vowing to continue striking Hezbollah to “dismantle and degrade” Hezbollah’s capabilities.The latest Israel strikes came after fighter jets struck some 180 targets in southern Lebanon on Saturday afternoon, taking out thousands of rocket launcher barrels that were primed for imminent attacks on Israel, according to the IDF.At the same time, officials issued new restrictions on residents of the Haifa area and northward as the country braced for the possibility of a large-scale assault by the Lebanese terror group in the coming hours, after it suffered heavy blows in multiple attacks in recent days.Over the course of the day, the IDF struck more than 400 Hezbollah rocket launchers, IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari said Saturday evening in a press conference.Significant Shockwaves produced by the ongoing Israeli Strikes against Southern Lebanon. pic.twitter.com/pO3L9Znw4T— OSINTdefender (@sentdefender) September 21, 2024-Amid the fighting, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was set to hold security consultations with ministers and top defense officials on Saturday night.According to the new instructions for northern residents issued by the Home Front Command, work and educational activity will only be able to take place where an adequate shelter is nearby and can be reached in time.In addition, gatherings are limited to up to 30 people outdoors and 300 people indoors.Hagari said there may be additional changes to the guidelines depending on developments, and warned that rockets could be launched at Israel in the coming hours.“If there are any further changes, overnight or tomorrow, we will update immediately. It is possible that in the immediate time frame, rockets and other threats may be launched at Israel. We ask of you to follow the Home Front Command guidelines,” he said.Some 100 rockets were launched from Lebanon at northern Israel on Saturday, according to the IDF. Hezbollah claimed responsibility for the attacks.No injuries were reported as a result of any of the rockets, but police said they received reports of rocket impacts that caused damage and sparked fires.The first barrage at around 2 p.m., toward Safed and Kiryat Shmona, included some 25 rockets. Over the following hour, a barrage of 10 rockets was fired at the Arab al-Aramshe area, and another 25 were launched toward the Golan Heights.Shortly after 3 p.m., a barrage of 10 rockets was fired at the Upper Galilee, and at 3:19 p.m., another 20 rockets were launched at the same area, according to the military.Video posted to social media appeared to show several missile interceptions. — כאן חדשות (@kann_news) September 21, 2024-Israeli Air Force chief Maj. Gen. Tomer Bar said the IAF was on the highest level of alert.“We are continuing to maintain the highest possible level of readiness in the Air Force,” Bar said during a meeting with IAF commanders. “We’ve placed all the Air Force’s capabilities… on the table. Everything is ready. Now, in accordance with the developments, we are enacting the plans that are most suitable,” he added.On Saturday morning, Israel’s aviation authority issued a NOTAM, or “notice to airmen,” closing the airspace from the coastal city of Hadera and northward. The notice is valid for 24 hours and largely affects recreational and agricultural flights. It does not apply to emergency fights by the military, police, firefighters, medical evacuations or flights servicing oil rigs.Ben Gurion Airport was unaffected by the notice. Commercial flights generally do not fly north of Hadera to reach the airport near Tel Aviv.Meanwhile, the head of the IDF’s Northern Command, Maj. Gen. Ori Gordin, held an assessment with senior officers in northern Israel, which the military said was “part of the broadening of the fighting” against Hezbollah.The military said Gordin met with the commanders of the 300th “Baram” and 769th “Hiram” regional brigades, and the commanders of other brigades and units deployed to northern Israel.“In recent days, the commanders of the divisions and brigades under the Northern Command carried out situation assessments and additional tours in the region, as part of preparations for the widening of the fighting in the area,” the IDF added.The fighting on Saturday came after Israel on Friday assassinated top Hezbollah commanders Ibrahim Aqil and Ahmed Wahbi, along with other top members of the group, in an airstrike on a residential building in Beirut, where the terror group leaders had gathered for a meeting in an underground room.Aqil was head of Hezbollah’s military operations, acting commander of its elite Radwan Force, and head of a long-gestating plan to invade the Galilee, while Wahbi, a former commander of the Radwan Force, was head of the terror group’s training unit.The devastating strike was a further blow to the Iranian proxy and brought the sides closer to a full-scale war, after 11 months in which Hezbollah has engaged in near-daily attacks on northern Israel.It also came days after thousands of Hezbollah members’ personal electronics — first pagers, then later walkie-talkies — exploded, killing dozens and wounding thousands, in an attack for which Israel was widely blamed.Since October 8, Hezbollah-led forces have attacked Israeli communities and military posts along the border on a near-daily basis, with the group saying it is doing so to support Gaza amid the war there.So far, the skirmishes have resulted in 26 civilian deaths on the Israeli side, as well as the deaths of 22 IDF soldiers and reservists. There have also been several attacks from Syria, without any injuriesHezbollah has named 501 members who have been killed by Israel during the ongoing skirmishes, mostly in Lebanon but some also in Syria. Another 79 operatives from other terror groups, a Lebanese soldier, and dozens of civilians have also been killed.
Carmel Gat's family: Victory depends on bringing hostages home-Army says it killed 2 Hamas terrorists who likely murdered 6 Israeli hostages in tunnel-Spokesman says findings from scene of hostages’ execution shows terrorists were there when they were killed-By Emanuel Fabian-21 September 2024, 10:42 pm
Two terrorists who likely murdered six Israeli hostages in a tunnel in the southern Gaza Strip last month were killed by Israeli troops, Israel Defense Forces Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari said Saturday.The bodies of Hersh Goldberg-Polin, Eden Yerushalmi, Ori Danino, Alex Lobanov, Carmel Gat and Almog Sarusi were recovered from Gaza early on September 1, a short time after their murders.“A day after the murder of the hostages, forces with the 162nd Division identified two terrorists emerging from a nearby tunnel in the Tel Sultan area of Rafah, and killed them in an exchange of fire,” Hagari said in a press conference.“After we investigated the findings from the tunnel and equipment from the terrorists, we found DNA and several items that belonged to the terrorists that we killed,” he continued.Hagari said that the findings revealed that the two terrorists were inside the tunnel where the six hostages were murdered during the killings.He said the military was continuing to investigate the matter.In a statement after the IDF announcement, the family of one of the six murdered hostages, Carmel Gat, said, “Israel’s victory will not be measured by how many terrorists we eliminate, but by how many hostages we bring home.”The family thanked IDF soldiers for “risking their lives in impossible conditions for 11 months,” and added: “It would have made no difference to Carmel if those who murdered her, or murdered her mother [Kinneret at Kibbutz Be’eri on October 7], are alive or dead. She would have wanted to know that the hostages returned home alive.”“There is no comfort in revenge,” the family adds. “The answer to Carmel’s murder is not revenge against the murderers. The answer to death is not more death; it is life. The only response to the murder of Carmel must be a deal that brings the hostages home, and prevents regional escalation, before it is too late,” the family added. “That’s the difference between us and our enemies. They sanctify death. We sanctify life.”Israeli officials said upon recovering the bodies of the hostages that they had apparently been murdered in the previous 48 to 72 hours.The announcement sparked mass protests across Israel demanding a deal to release the hostages.The tunnel where the bodies were found was a narrow 120-meter-long passageway — not tall enough to stand in without bending over — that connected parts of a large underground network in the Tel Sultan neighborhood, which according to the IDF belonged to Hamas’s Rafah Brigade.The tunnel network was one of the largest underground complexes found by the army in Gaza to date, military sources said.The military said it did not have any concrete or real-time intelligence on the six hostages being held there in the weeks before they were murdered, but had general indications that Israeli abductees could be in the neighborhood, and therefore had operated carefully above ground and even more so underground.The terror group has hinted that after spotting Israeli forces approaching the area, the Hamas terrorists guarding the six hostages decided to execute them. Israel also believes this is what transpired.On August 30, the IDF discovered the tunnel shaft in a children’s room in a home that had been blocked up by Hamas.A day later, on August 31, troops finally managed to enter the tunnel using heavy machinery, where they discovered a locked blast door — believed to have been locked by the terrorists who murdered the hostages. Later that day, the bodies of the six were found.By early morning on September 1, they were extracted and brought to Israel for identification and burial.Hamas kidnapped 251 people during its October 7 rampage across southern Israel, which also saw the terrorist organization kill some 1,200 individuals, most of whom were civilians.It is believed that 97 of the 251 hostages abducted by Hamas on October 7 remain in Gaza, including the bodies of at least 33 confirmed dead by the IDF.
Tehran unveils new ballistic missile with 1,000-km range-Khamenei: Israel committing ‘shameless crimes’ against children, must be eliminated-After deadly strikes on Hezbollah in Lebanon, Iran’s leader claims Jewish state not combating ‘fighting men, but ordinary people,’ urges Islamic countries to remove ‘malignant tumor’ By Agencies and ToI Staff 21 September 2024, 6:31 pm
Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said on Saturday that Israel was committing “shameless crimes” against children, not combatants, and called on Islamic nations to work together to wipe it out.Khamenei said Israel was not even hiding its different forms of “shameless crimes” in Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon and Syria. It is not combating “fighting men, but ordinary people,” Khamenei falsely told a group of envoys from Muslim countries in Tehran in remarks broadcast on state TV.“Unable to hurt the real fighters in Palestine, they are venting their malicious anger on small children, on hospital patients, and on schools filled with young children,” he said.He called on Islamic countries to “completely cut off their economic relations” with Israel and “weaken political ties.”“This inner strength can eliminate the Zionist regime, this malignant cancerous tumor, from the heart of the Islamic community in Palestine and get rid of US domination and coercive interference in the region,” he said.His comments came a day after an Israeli airstrike on the Lebanese capital Beirut killed multiple top commanders of the Hezbollah terror group, including its head of operations.Israel has specified that at least 16 leading Hezbollah fighters were killed in the strike, including many of the top commanders of Hezbollah’s elite Radwan Force and the force’s acting commander, Ibrahaim Aqil, the head of a long-gestating plan to invade the Galilee. According to the Lebanese health ministry, the strike killed at least 31 people, including three children and seven women.Friday’s strike was the deadliest in a year of conflict between Israel and the Iranian-backed terror group, which has been attacking Israel’s north since October in support of the Hamas terror group in Gaza.The strike followed two days of attacks in which pagers and walkie-talkies used by Hezbollah members exploded. Lebanon blamed the attacks on Israel, which has neither confirmed nor denied its involvement.Also on Saturday, in a show of strength, Iran unveiled its “Jihad” single-stage liquid-fuel ballistic missile with a high-explosive detachable warhead and a range of 1,000 km, according to state TV.The missiles were displayed, along with other military hardware, during a parade marking the anniversary of the start of the 1980-88 war with Iraq.It also displayed an upgraded one-way attack drone. The Shahed-136B drone is an upgraded version of the Shahed-136, with new features and an operational range of more than 4,000 kilometers (2,500 miles), state news agency IRNA said.Iran stands accused by Western governments of supplying both drones and missiles to Russia for use in its war with Ukraine, a charge it has repeatedly denied.New President Masoud Pezeshkian attended the annual parade in Tehran.“Today, our defensive and deterrent capabilities have grown so much that no demon even thinks about any aggression towards our dear Iran,” he said.“With unity and cohesion among Islamic countries… we can put in its place the bloodthirsty, genocidal usurper Israel, which shows no mercy to anyone, women or children, old or young.”Middle East tensions have soared since Iran-backed Palestinian terror group Hamas attacked Israel on October 7, killing some 1,200 people and kidnapping 251, sparking war in Gaza and drawing in Iranian allies around the region.The tensions have intensified in recent days as the focus of Israel’s firepower has shifted north to the Lebanon’s border where its troops have been battling Hezbollah. The Iranian-backed terror group has been attacking Israel since October 8, and has forced tens of thousands of residents of northern Israel from their homes.
IDF says it struck Hamas operatives at inactive Gaza school; 21 reported killed-Hamas authorities say 13 children among fatalities at al-Falah school; senior Hamas intelligence officer and armed looters of aid killed in separate strikes-By Emanuel Fabian, AFP and ToI Staff 21 September 2024, 6:51 pm
The Israel Defense Forces carried out an airstrike on Saturday against a group of Hamas operatives at a command room embedded within a former school in Gaza, the military said, in an attack that reportedly killed more than 20 people.Hamas was using the al-Falah School in the Zeitoun neighborhood to plan and carry out attacks against IDF troops and against Israel, the military said.The school, inactive amid the war, had also been serving as a shelter for displaced Gazans.According to the Gaza civil defense agency and health ministry — both run by Hamas — 21 people were killed in the strike.“Civil Defense crews recovered 21 people, including 13 children and six women,” one of whom was pregnant, agency spokesman Mahmud Bassal told AFP.There were “around 30 injured, including nine children [needing] limb amputations, as a result of an Israeli bombing on al-Zeitoun School C” in Gaza City, he said.To mitigate harm to civilians in the strike, the IDF said it carried out “many steps,” including using precision munitions, aerial surveillance, and other intelligence.“The Hamas terror organization systematically violates international law, brutally exploiting civilian institutions and the population as a human shield for terror activity,” the military added.It said the target was “embedded inside” the al-Falah School, adjacent to the Al-Zeitoun School buildings. An AFP reporter at the scene confirmed that Al-Zeitoun School C had been hit.Witnesses told AFP that before the strike, orphans had gathered there because they were due to receive sponsorship from a local NGO for humanitarian assistance.The IDF has repeatedly hit Hamas operatives at schools, civilian shelters and hospitals, frequently drawing international condemnation. The military says it is doing so because terror operatives regularly hide behind civilians, and argues that it takes pains to avoid harm to innocents.Earlier Saturday, the military said the Israeli Air Force carried out some 20 airstrikes during the previous day. The strikes targeted buildings used by the Hamas and its operatives, the IDF said.In another recent airstrike, the IDF said Saturday that it had killed Muhammad Mansour, a prominent Hamas intelligence officer who the military described as a “significant source of technological knowledge in Hamas’s military intelligence.”Separately, the military released footage Saturday showing drone strikes in the Rafah area of the southern Gaza Strip against gunmen who had attempted to loot a humanitarian aid convoy.The footage showed the gunmen climbing onto the trucks carrying humanitarian aid as they drove on a designated route.The IDF said the gunmen were spotted by troops, who directed a drone strike against them as they tried to flee in a car. Another gunman was killed while trying to flee the scene.The IDF has said Hamas operatives frequently try to hijack aid deliveries before they can be distributed to civilians.According to the Hamas-run Gaza health ministry, a separate incident on Saturday saw an Israeli airstrike hit a warehouse in a “densely populated” area of southern Gaza, killing “three ministry of health personnel and a passer-by” and injuring six others.“The warehouse was directly targeted with several missiles while doctors and staff were performing their duties, preparing to transport the medicines stored there to hospitals under the ministry of health that are facing severe shortages of medicines and supplies,” a statement said.The war has badly battered Gaza’s health sector, and the World Health Organization said earlier this month that only 17 of its 36 hospitals were partially functional.War broke out on October 7 when Hamas terrorists infiltrated Israel, killing some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and kidnapping 251. It is believed that 97 of the hostages abducted by Hamas on October 7 remain in Gaza, including the bodies of at least 33 confirmed dead by the IDF.The Hamas-run Gaza health ministry says more than 40,000 people in the Strip have been killed or are presumed dead in the fighting so far, though the toll cannot be verified and does not differentiate between civilians and fighters. Israel says it has killed some 17,000 combatants in battle and another 1,000 terrorists inside Israel on October 7.Israel has said it seeks to minimize civilian fatalities and stresses that Hamas uses Gaza’s civilians as human shields, fighting from civilian areas including homes, hospitals, schools and mosques.
US officials say killing of top Hezbollah man a ‘good outcome’ and ‘nobody sheds a tear’At the same time, Washington says its policy is to prevent full-blown war between Israel and Lebanese terror group-By ToI Staff 21 September 2024, 8:32 pm
US officials on Saturday expressed approval of the death of Ibrahim Aqil, a top Hezbollah commander responsible for a 1983 bombing that killed 241 Americans in Beirut, who was killed by an Israeli strike on the Lebanese capital on Friday.Aqil, the head of operations for Hezbollah, was killed in the strike along with top commanders of the terror group’s elite Radwan Force, as they met in the basement of a Beirut residential building. Lebanese officials said 37 people were killed in the strike, including three children and several women.US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan called Aqil’s death “a good outcome,” adding that he planned to speak with Israeli officials later Saturday about the operation.“That individual has American blood on his hands and has a Reward for Justice price on his head,” Sullivan told reporters on the sidelines of the Quad summit that US President Joe Biden is hosting in Wilmington, Delaware. “He is somebody who the United States promised long ago we would do everything we could to see brought to justice.”Before Friday’s strike, the US had offered a $7 million reward for information on Aqil.Sullivan added that the moment was also meaningful for the American victims. “You know 1983 seems like a long time ago,” he said. “But for a lot of families and a lot of people, they’re still living with it every day.”Nevertheless, Sullivan said he was still worried about possible escalation between Israel and Hezbollah.“Ibrahim Aqil, who was killed today, was responsible for the Beirut barracks and embassy bombing 40 years ago. So nobody sheds a tear for him,” Brett McGurk, the White House Mideast czar, said Friday while addressing the Israeli-American Council’s conference in Washington.“That said, we have disagreements with the Israelis on tactics and how you kind of measure escalation risk. It is a very concerning situation. I’m very confident that through diplomacy, through deterrence and other means, we’ll work our way out of it,” he added.“We do not think a war in Lebanon is the way to achieve the objective, to return people to their homes. We also fully stand with Israel in their defense of their people and their territory against Hezbollah,” McGurk continued. “We want a diplomatic settlement to the north. That is the objective, and that’s what we’re working towards.”WH coordinator for the ME at the @israeliamerican conference on Lebanon:“We do not think a war in Lebanon is the way to achieve the objective, to return people to their homes.

Profile-Cristiana Barsony-Arcidiacono, mystery woman whose company licensed exploding pagers-A multi-lingual physics PhD with a passion for painting, Italian-Hungarian has denied direct ties to exploding Hezbollah pagers, disappeared from view, been questioned by Hungary-By Krisztina Than 21 September 2024, 4:37 pm
BUDAPEST, Sept 20 (Reuters) – She speaks seven languages, has a PhD in particle physics, an apartment in Budapest plastered with her own pastel drawings of nudes, and a career that took her around Africa and Europe doing humanitarian work.What Cristiana Barsony-Arcidiacono, 49, the Italian-Hungarian CEO and owner of Hungary-based BAC Consulting, says she hasn’t done is make the exploding pagers that killed 12 people and wounded more than 2,000 in Lebanon this week.After her company was revealed to have licensed the design for the pagers from their original Taiwanese manufacturer Gold Apollo, Barsony-Arcidiacono told NBC News that she didn’t make them.“I am just the intermediate. I think you got it wrong,” she said.Since then, she has not appeared in public. Neighbors say they haven’t seen her. Barsony-Arcidiacono has not responded to calls and emails and there was no answer when Reuters visited her private address in downtown Budapest. Her flat in a stately old Budapest building, where a door to a vestibule had been open earlier in the week, has been shuttered.On Saturday, the Hungarian government said that its intelligence services have conducted several interviews with Barsony-Arcidiacono since the explosions.Following publication of this story, Reuters again reached out to her but received no reply. The Hungarian government said on Wednesday that BAC Consulting was a “trading-intermediary company” that had no manufacturing site in the country and that the pagers had never been to Hungary.The New York Times reported earlier this week that BAC Consulting was part of a front set up by figures in Israeli intelligence. Two other shell companies were also created to help mask the link between BAC and the Israelis, according to the report. The Times claimed that rather than merely managing to tamper with the devices at some stage of their production or distribution, Israel actually “manufactured them as part of an elaborate ruse.”Discussions with Barsony-Arcidiacono’s acquaintances and former work colleagues paint a picture of a woman with an impressive intellect and a peripatetic career in a string of short-term jobs in which she never quite settled down.An acquaintance of hers, who like others who knew her socially in Budapest asked not to be identified, called her “Good-willed, not a business type.” The person said she appeared to be someone who was always enthusiastic about trying something new and readily believed things.Kilian Kleinschmidt, a veteran ex-UN humanitarian administrator who hired Barsony-Arcidiacono in 2019 to run a six-month Dutch-funded program to train Libyans in Tunisia in subjects such as hydroponics, IT and business development, described hiring her as a big “mistake.” After disagreements about how she managed staff, he said he let her go before her contract was over, which Reuters could not independently verify.At her Budapest home, a steel outer gate encloses a small vestibule where life drawings of nudes sketched in red and orange pastels can be seen taped up on the wall. An inner door leading into her apartment was ajar when Reuters first visited the building on Wednesday, and closed when the reporter returned on Thursday. No one answered the bell.A woman living in the building for the past two years said Barsony-Arcidiacono was already a resident when she moved in, and described her as kind, not loud, but communicative.She practiced her drawing as part of a Budapest art club, though she hadn’t attended for a couple of years, said the organizer of the group, who said she seemed like more of a businesswoman than an artist, but was upbeat and outgoing.A schoolmate of Barsony-Arcidiacono said she grew up in a family with a working father and housewife mother in Santa Venerina, near Catania in eastern Sicily, and attended high school nearby. He described her as a quite reserved youngster.In the early 2000s, she earned her PhD in physics at University College London, where her dissertation on positrons – a subatomic particle with the mass of an electron and a positive charge – remains available on the UCL website. But she appears to have left without pursuing a scientific career.“As far as I know she has not done scientific work since then,” Akos Torok, a retired physicist who was one of her professors at UCL and published papers with her at the time, told Reuters by email.A resume she used to get the job working for Kleinschmidt included references to other post-graduate degrees, in politics and development, from the London School of Economics and the School of Oriental and African Studies, which Reuters was not able to verify.She then went on to describe a string of jobs working on NGO projects in Europe, Africa and the Middle East.In a separate CV on the BAC Consulting website, she described herself as a “Board Member at the Earth Child Institute,” an educational and environmental charity in New York. The group’s founder, Donna Goodman, told Reuters Barsony-Arcidiacono had never held any role there.“She was a friend of a friend of a board member, and contacted us about a job opening” in 2018, Goodman said. “But she was never invited to apply.”That CV also described her as a former “Project Manager” at the International Atomic Energy Agency in 2008-2009, who organized a nuclear research conference. The IAEA said its records indicated she had been an intern there for eight months.On BAC Consulting’s website, which was taken down by the end of this week, the company gave little idea of its actual business in Hungary. Its registered address is a serviced office in a Budapest suburb.“I am a scientist using my very diverse background to work on interdisciplinary projects for strategic decision-making(water & climate policy, investments),” Barsony-Arcidiacono wrote on her CV.“With excellent analytical, language, and interpersonal skills, I enjoy working and leading in a multicultural environment where diversity, integrity, and humor are valued.”Times of Israel staff contributed to this report.
NOW TLAIB THE TERRORIST SUPPORTER CRYS FOUL AGAINST A CARTOON.TYPICAL PERVERTED ISLAMIST ARAB.
Tlaib slams ‘racist’ cartoon that shows her pager exploding-Palestinian-American member of Congress says the cartoon, which implies an association with Hezbollah, will incite hate and violence-By Agencies 21 September 2024, 4:17 pm
Palestinian-American member of US Congress Rashida Tlaib condemned a cartoon published in a conservative magazine that depicted her next to an exploding pager, implying an association with Hezbollah.The cartoon by Henry Payne, published Thursday in the National Review, referred to a wave of exploding communication devices this week in Lebanon.The blasts that killed at least 37 people and wounded nearly 3,000 on Tuesday and Wednesday targeted pagers and walkie-talkies used by the Iran-backed Hezbollah terror group, which blamed Israel for the attacks.“Our community is already in so much pain right now,” Tlaib, a Democratic representative from the state of Michigan, wrote on X.She added: “This racism will incite more hate + violence against our Arab & Muslim communities, and it makes everyone less safe. It’s disgraceful that the media continues to normalize this racism.”In the cartoon, a woman identified as Rep.

Hezbollah in disarray; US: Nobody sheds a tear for Aqil-IDF confirms eliminating multiple top Hezbollah commanders in Friday’s Beirut strike-Radwan Force leadership taken out; Hezbollah acknowledges 2 top leaders, 14 others died in attack that killed head of operations Ibrahim Aqil; Lebanon says overall death toll at 37-By Emanuel Fabian and Agencies 21 September 2024, 3:09 pm
The Israel Defense Forces confirmed Saturday that it had eliminated many of the top commanders of Hezbollah’s elite Radwan Force in the Friday strike in Beirut that killed Ibrahim Aqil, the head of Hezbollah’s military operations.Hezbollah acknowledged that the airstrike had killed two of its most senior commanders and 14 other members of the terror group who were meeting in the basement of a Beirut residential building. The devastating strike was a further blow to the Iranian proxy and brought the sides closer to a full-scale war.The military named 11 top Radwan officials killed in the strike. The Radwan Force has spearheaded Hezbollah’s ground operations in south Lebanon.Aqil was the head of Hezbollah’s military operations, the acting commander of the Radwan Force, and the head of a long-gestating plan to invade the Galilee. Aqil had been meeting with the senior commanders of the Radwan Force under a residential building in Beirut when the IDF carried out its strike.Ahmed Wahbi, identified by Hezbollah and the IDF as the head of the terror group’s training unit and a former commander of the Radwan Force, was also among the dead in the strike.The IDF said Wahbi was among those involved in the planning of a Hezbollah invasion of the Galilee, and was also part of “advancing Hezbollah’s entrenchment in southern Lebanon, while attempting to improve the organization’s ground combat capabilities.”Over the years and during the first months of the war, the military said Wahbi was involved in planning and carrying out rocket fire and infiltration attacks. Signifying his stature in Hezbollah, Wahbi, was identified by the terror group as a “commander.” Hezbollah rarely refers to its senior operatives slain in Israeli strikes as commanders.A poster announcing the death of the Hezbollah official Ahmed Wahbi, September 21, 2024.Other top Radwan Force commanders killed in the strike are identified by the IDF as: Hassan Hussein, commander of special forces in the Aziz regional division; Samer Halawi, commander of the coastal region; Abbas Muslimani, commander of the Qana region; Abdullah Hijazi, commander of the Ramim Ridge region; Muhammad Reda, commander of the Khiam region; Hassan Madi, commander of the Mount Dov region; Hassan Abd al-Satar, head of operations; Hussein Hadraj, chief of staff; Mohammad al-Attar, commander of the training department; and Mahmoud Hamad, a senior operations officer.“These commanders had been leading and planning the Radwan Force’s attack and infiltration plan into Israeli territory for years, to be executed when given the order,” the military said. “Aqil and the commanders eliminated in the strike were responsible for planning, advancing, and executing hundreds of terrorist operations against Israel, including the planning of Hezbollah’s murderous scheme to raid the communities of the Galilee.”Lebanese Health Minister Firass Abiad said the overall toll from the strike had risen to 37, including three children and several women. Abiad said emergency services worked “through the night” to recover dead and wounded from the debris, adding that the “residential building collapsed on top of occupants” after the Israeli attack.Abiad told reporters 68 people were also wounded, of whom 15 remained in hospital, adding that search and rescue operations were still ongoing, with the number of casualties likely to rise. Minister of Public Works and Transport Ali Hamie told reporters at the scene that 23 people are still missing.Aqil’s body was recovered overnight and Hezbollah announced his death, saying “one of its great leaders” was killed “on the road to Jerusalem,” the phrase it uses to refer to fighters killed by Israel.Lebanese troops cordoned off the area preventing people from reaching the building that was knocked down as members of the Lebanese Red Cross stood nearby to take any recovered body from under the rubble. On Saturday morning, Hezbollah’s media office took journalists on a tour of the scene of the airstrike where workers were still digging through the rubble.Hezbollah in disarray-The deadly strike appeared to push Hezbollah into further disarray after the terror group suffered a pair of unprecedented attacks earlier this week in which thousands of pagers and walkie-talkies used by its members exploded, killing 37 people and wounding thousands. That attack was widely believed to have also been carried out by Israel, which has neither confirmed nor denied its involvement.Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah vowed on Thursday that Israel would face retribution for the blasts. The terror group did not immediately respond to Friday’s strike.Following the strike, Hezbollah appointed senior officers Ali Karaki and Talal Hamia to jointly lead the terror group’s operations division following the killing of Aqil, the Saudi news outlet Al-Hadath reported.Both officers already sit on the Jihad Council, Hezbollah’s top military body.Karaki is the head of Hezbollah’s southern command, responsible for the terror group’s military activity in south Lebanon, and Hamia is the head of Hezbollah’s Unit 910, the terror group’s foreign operations unit, responsible for attacks abroad.The Jihad Council was believed to have had seven members, although now it was down to five following the killings of Aqil and Fuad Shukr, Hezbollah’s military chief, who was killed in July.Aqil had also been wanted by the United States for his role in the 1983 bombings of the American Embassy in Lebanon and the US Marines barracks in Beirut.In a curt statement issued on Friday evening, soon after the start of Shabbat, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said, “Our goals are clear, and our actions speak for themselves.”Before and after the strike targeting Aqil, Hezbollah fired some 200 rockets Friday at the northern Galilee and the Golan Heights. No casualties were reported following the barrages, which happened as the IDF alerted residents in the area to remain close to bomb shelters.Alongside Aqil, the top brass of Hezbollah’s operations array and the leadership of the Radwan Force were killed in the strike, according to the military.“They gathered underground, under a residential building, in the heart of the Dahiyeh, while using civilians as a human shield. They met to coordinate terror activities against Israeli civilians,” IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari said in a press conference. Lebanese media reported that the strike was carried out by an Israeli F-35 fighter jet using two missiles to target the apartment building in the Dahiyeh area of south Beirut, a known Hezbollah stronghold.“Aqil and the Radwan Force commanders who we attacked are the commanders who drew up and led the Hezbollah terror group’s plan, to be carried out on the day the order was given, to attack into the northern territory of the State of Israel — what they called ‘The plan to conquer the Galilee,’” Hagari said at his press conference on Friday evening.In this planned invasion, “Hezbollah intended to raid Israeli territory, occupy the communities of the Galilee, and murder and kidnap Israeli citizens — similar to what Hamas did on October 7,” Hagari continued.“The commanders who we eliminated today” had been overseeing attacks on Israeli citizens since October 8, and planned to carry out more such attacks,” he added, calling Aqil “a terrorist with a great deal of blood on his hands, responsible for the deaths of many civilians and innocents.”Aqil joined Hezbollah in the 1980s, and was also responsible for the terror group’s attacks outside of Lebanon, according to the IDF. The military said he participated in many attacks in other countries, including targeting civilians.Since 2004, Aqil has been serving as the head of Hezbollah operations, responsible for the terror group’s bombing and anti-tank attacks on Israel, air defenses, and other aspects of the organization, the military said.The IDF said Aqil was involved in an anti-tank guided missile attack against an army post near Avivim in 2019, a bombing attack at the Megiddo Junction last year, and several attempts by Hezbollah operatives to infiltrate into Israel amid the war.
Not shedding a tear-The US had accused Aqil of a role in the Beirut truck bombings at the American embassy in April 1983, which killed 63 people, and a US Marine barracks six months later that killed 241 people. He was also wanted for directing the taking of American and German hostages in Lebanon in the 1980s.The US had placed a $7 million bounty on Aqil’s head.White House Mideast czar Brett McGurk said the Biden administration was not shedding a tear over Aqil, but indicated that the US might not agree with the move given the risk it brings for regional escalation.“Ibrahim Aqil, who was killed today, was responsible for the Beirut Embassy bombing 40 years ago. So nobody sheds a tear for him,” McGurk said while addressing the Israeli-American Council’s conference in Washington.“That said, we have disagreements with the Israelis on tactics and how you kind of measure escalation risk. It is a very concerning situation. I’m very confident that through diplomacy, through deterrence and other means, we’ll work our way out of it,” he added.Friday’s strike was just the third time Israel has targeted Beirut since the IDF began responding to cross-border fire from Hezbollah that began a day after Hamas’s October 7 onslaught.In July, an Israeli airstrike in Beirut killed Hezbollah’s military chief Shukr, and before that in January, Hamas deputy leader Saleh al-Arouri was killed in an IAF strike in the Lebanese capital.Hezbollah has pledged to continue its fire until there is a ceasefire in Gaza. Most of the strikes by both sides have been contained to the border area, but have forced tens of thousands of Israelis and Lebanese to evacuate their homes.While Israel has repeated for months that it would prefer a diplomatic solution that would allow its residents to return to their homes, it has said it would use military force if necessary.The US has sought to broker a deal, which among other things would see Hezbollah retreat 10 kilometers away from the border, in line with UN Security Resolution 1701, which the terror group has long violated. However, it has acknowledged that the surest way to strike such an agreement will be by first reaching a ceasefire in Gaza, which has also remained elusive.Still, US special envoy Amos Hochstein told Israeli leaders during a visit earlier this week that launching a war against Hezbollah isn’t any more likely to secure Israel the conditions it is seeking to return its 60,000 evacuated residents to their homes and argued that the sides will ultimately be pushed to agree to the same deal currently on the table after both suffering major losses.Israel announced earlier this week that it was amending its war objectives — formulated after Hamas invaded southern Israel from Gaza on October 7, slaughtered some 1,200 people and abducted 251 hostages — to add the additional imperative to return displaced northern residents safely to their homes.Since October 8, Hezbollah-led forces have attacked Israeli communities and military posts along the border on a near-daily basis, with the group saying it is doing so to support Gaza amid the war there.So far, the skirmishes have resulted in 26 civilian deaths on the Israeli side, as well as the deaths of 22 IDF soldiers and reservists. There have also been several attacks from Syria, without any injuries.Hezbollah has named 483 members who have been killed by Israel during the ongoing skirmishes, mostly in Lebanon but some also in Syria. Another 79 operatives from other terror groups, a Lebanese soldier, and dozens of civilians have also been killed.Meanwhile, Kata’ib Hezbollah, an Iranian proxy operating in Iraq and Syria that is not directly affiliated with its Lebanese namesake, announced the death of a member in an alleged Israeli airstrike near Damascus on Friday morning.The terror group said in a statement that Abu Haidar al-Khafaji served as a security advisor in the Damascus area.

UN rights chief claims detonation of Hezbollah comms devices could be a war crime-At Security Council session requested by Lebanon, Volker Turk says he’s ‘appalled by the breadth and impact of the attacks’ while Lebanese FM calls Israel a ‘rogue state’-By AFP and ToI Staff 21 September 2024, 5:41 am
UNITED NATIONS — The United Nations claimed Friday the detonation of hand-held communication devices in Lebanon could constitute a war crime as Beirut’s top diplomat accused Israel of orchestrating what he called a “terror” attack.The blasts that killed dozens and wounded nearly 3,000 on Tuesday and Wednesday targeted communication devices used by the Iran-backed Hezbollah terrorist organization.Pagers and walkie-talkies exploded as their users were shopping in supermarkets, walking on streets and attending funerals, plunging the country into panic.“International humanitarian law prohibits the use of booby-trap devices in the form of apparently harmless portable objects,” the UN’s High Commissioner for Human Rights, Volker Turk, told the Security Council during an emergency session on Lebanon requested by Algeria.“It is a war crime to commit violence intended to spread terror among civilians,” he added, repeating his call for an “independent, rigorous and transparent” investigation.Lebanese authorities blame Israel for the attack and have said the targeted devices were booby-trapped before they entered the country.Hezbollah has vowed retribution and launched its own internal probe into the explosions.“I am appalled by the breadth and impact of the attacks,” said Turk.“These attacks represent a new development in warfare, where communication tools become weapons,” he added.“This cannot be the new normal.Speaking at the Security Council, Lebanon’s top diplomat Abdallah Bou Habib called the attack “an unprecedented method of warfare in its brutality and terror.”“Israel, through this terrorist aggression has violated the basic principles of international humanitarian law,” he said, calling Israel a “rogue state.”‘Diplomatic efforts’Israel has not commented on the device blasts but has said it will widen the scope of the war with Hamas in Gaza to include the Lebanon front.“I can tell you that we will do everything we can to target those terrorists,” Israel’s Ambassador to the UN Danny Danon told reporters on Friday when asked about the device explosions.He spoke after Israel announced it had killed the commander of Hezbollah’s elite unit in a strike on Beirut on Friday.“We have no intention to enter a war with Hezbollah in Lebanon, but we cannot continue the way it is,” Danon said.Speaking at the Security Council, Danon said Israel will do “whatever it takes” to restore security in northern areas.“If Hezbollah does not retreat from our border… through diplomatic efforts, Israel will be left with no choice but to use any means within our rights,” he said.Stephane Dujarric, spokesman for UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, said the body was “very concerned about the heightened escalation” across the Lebanon-Israel frontier after Friday’s Israeli strike on Beirut.He called for “maximum restraint” from all sides.Iran-backed Hezbollah is an ally of Palestinian terror group Hamas, which has been fighting against Israeli forces in Gaza since starting the war with its October 7 attack on Israel. Hezbollah has been launching near-daily attacks on Israeli communities and military posts along the border since October 8, saying it’s doing so in solidarity with Gaza.So far, the skirmishes between Israel and Hezbollah have resulted in 26 civilian deaths on the Israeli side, as well as the deaths of 22 IDF soldiers and reservists. There have also been several attacks from Syria, without any injuries.Hezbollah has named 484 members who have been killed by Israel during the ongoing skirmishes, mostly in Lebanon but some also in Syria.

Gallant: Hezbollah is 'feeling persecuted' IDF hits more than 100 loaded Hezbollah launchers in series of major Lebanon strikes-After strikes, army tells residents of several northern communities to stay near bomb shelters; Metula mayor reports ‘tremendous damage’ after rockets hit buildings, spark fires-By Emanuel Fabian, Agencies and ToI Staff Today, 12:02 am-SEP 20,24
Israel carried out dozens of strikes on Thursday across southern Lebanon, in what Lebanese security sources said were some of the most intense bombings since Hezbollah began daily cross-border attacks on northern communities after the start of the Gaza war on October 7.The military said fighter jets had struck over 100 Hezbollah rocket launchers in southern Lebanon that were primed for immediate attacks on Israel. It said that in total, the launchers included around 1,000 launch barrels.Several buildings and a weapons depot belonging to Hezbollah were also struck in several areas of southern Lebanon, according to the military.The strikes began in the afternoon and were carried out in several waves.“The IDF continues to damage and degrade the terror capabilities and military infrastructure of the Hezbollah terror organization,” the military added.Following the strikes, the IDF published a list of guidelines for civilians in several communities and cities in northern Israel, telling them to remain close to bomb shelters.The guidelines applied to civilians in the Merom HaGalil Regional Council, Upper Galilee Regional Council, Mevo’ot HaHermon Regional Council, Yesud HaMa’ala, Hatzor, Rosh Pina, Safed, Metula, and towns in the Golan Heights from Katzrin and northward.The IDF called on civilians in those areas to reduce movement outside of homes, avoid large gatherings, guard the entrances to the communities and remain close to bomb shelters, with the guidelines in place until further notice.However, the guidelines were removed Friday morning.Israeli fighter jets in the last several hours struck over 100 Hezbollah rocket launchers in southern Lebanon that were primed for immediate attacks on Israel, the military says.The IDF says that in total, the launchers included around 1,000 launch barrels.The strikes began… pic.twitter.com/nHoxC7nRQs— Emanuel (Mannie) Fabian (@manniefabian) September 19, 2024-The major airstrikes came after a heavy barrage of rockets from Lebanon on northern communities, and as the Israeli defense establishment put preparations for a possible all-out war with Hezbollah into full gear.Eli Bin, head of the Magen David Adom rescue service, told the Ynet news site that he had received reports that an MDA station in Metula suffered a direct hit. There were no injuries reported, he said.David Azoulay, the mayor of Metula, released a statement reporting “tremendous damage” from rockets that struck a number of homes and sparked fires.“I haven’t seen anything like it since the start of the war,” he said.Earlier on Thursday, two IDF soldiers, Maj. (res.) Nael Fwarsy, 43, a logistics company commander from Maghar, and Sgt. Tomer Keren, 20, of the Golani Brigade’s 51st Battalion, from Haifa, were killed in Hezbollah missile and drone attacks on northern Israel. Nine soldiers were also wounded in the attacks.Also Thursday, as Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah delivered a televised address, vowing revenge on Israel for this week’s deadly wave of explosions of portable devices belonging to the terror group’s operatives in Lebanon and Syria, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant held a situational assessment on what he called “a new phase in the war.”Gallant said that the IDF would continue strikes in Lebanon in order to fulfill the newly officialized war goal of returning displaced northern residents to their homes.“Hezbollah is feeling persecuted,” he said in a video statement. “There are significant opportunities, but also heavy risks.”We will bring our communities home.

As time goes by, Hezbollah will pay an increasing price,” he said.“At the same time, we will continue and carry out the effort to return the hostages and dismantle Hamas,” Gallant added.The major airstrikes in Lebanon came as Israeli military officials were set to present the political echelon, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, with various plans for the northern front during a meeting on Thursday evening, amid the heightened tensions.IDF sources said the military was seeking to return displaced Israelis to their homes without causing the conflict with Hezbollah to expand to a regional multi-front war.The IDF has been on heightened alert following the recent events in Lebanon, and expects that the coming days may also be intense.#Israel #Lebanon The Israeli Air Force strikes over 70 targets in Lebanon.Unprecedented Intensity of Israeli strikes on Lebanon is being reported.#Israel #Palestine#Gaza#Hamas#Lebanon #Hezbollah#IDF#Hezbollah#Houthis #Yemen#Iran pic.twitter.com/SeFajAvRPw- Politics World Wide Web (@PoliticsWWWeb) September 19, 2024-Israel has not taken responsibility for the communication device attacks in Lebanon in the past two days that killed dozens of people, the vast majority of them terror operatives, and injured thousands.In the past few days, the IDF has been holding continuous assessments, and presenting plans to the political echelon.

Analysis-Hezbollah device explosions hurt psychologically more than practically, analysts say-In terms of physical damage, attacks are unlikely to have greatly affected manpower, but will force terror organization to find new way to communicate-By AP and ToI Staff 19 September 2024, 11:52 pm
BEIRUT, Lebanon — The waves of remotely triggered explosions that hit pagers and walkie-talkies carried by Hezbollah members in grocery stores, on streets and at a funeral procession this week made for an eerie and shocking spectacle.Analysts said Hezbollah will be able to regroup militarily and find communications workarounds after the attack, but the psychological effects will likely run deep.The explosions — widely blamed on Israel, which has neither confirmed nor denied involvement — killed at least 37 people, including two children whose fathers’ pagers blew up, wounded more than 3,000 and deeply unsettled even Lebanese who have no Hezbollah affiliation.The detonating devices hit workers in Hezbollah’s institutions, including its health care and media operations, as well as fighters, dealing a blow to the terrorist group’s operations beyond the battlefield. It is not clear how many civilians with no link to Hezbollah were hurt.The attacks also exposed the weaknesses in the low-tech communications system the group had turned to in an attempt to avoid Israeli surveillance of cell phones.Mohanad Hage Ali, a senior fellow at the Carnegie Middle East Center think tank who researches Hezbollah, said that because the blasts hit people across the group’s institutions, the attack was “like a sword in the guts of the organization.” Hundreds of people were severely wounded, including many who lost eyes or hands.“It will require time to heal and replace those who were targeted,” he said.But Hage Ali and other analysts agreed that the loss of manpower is not a crippling blow. Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah has said the group’s fighting force numbers more than 100,000, meaning that the attack — as dramatic as it was — would have put only a small percentage of its operatives out of commission even if all those wounded and killed were fighters.Hezbollah, which is Lebanon’s strongest armed force, has exchanged fire with Israel’s military almost daily since October 8, the day after a deadly Hamas-led assault in southern Israel triggered a massive Israeli counteroffensive and the ongoing war in Gaza.So far, the skirmishes have resulted in 26 civilian deaths on the Israeli side, as well as the deaths of 22 IDF soldiers and reservists. There have also been several attacks from Syria, without any injuries.Hezbollah has named 478 members who have been killed by Israel during the ongoing skirmishes, mostly in Lebanon but some also in Syria. Another 79 operatives from other terror groups, a Lebanese soldier, and dozens of civilians have also been killed.Speaking Thursday, Nasrallah acknowledged that the pager and walkie-talkie attacks represented a “severe blow,” but he vowed that the group would emerge stronger than before.Hezbollah continued to launch rockets and missiles over the border Wednesday and Thursday after the attacks, including one that killed two Israeli soldiers.The impacts on Hezbollah’s communications network are likely to be more disruptive than the human loss.“Telecommunications is the nerve of military operations and communications,” said retired Lebanese army Gen. Naji Malaeb, an expert on security affairs. A delay in communication could spell disaster, he said.In February, Nasrallah warned members not to carry cell phones, which he said could be used to track them and monitor their communications.But long before that, Hezbollah relied on pagers and its own private fiber-optic landline network to avoid the monitoring of its communications.The pagers that detonated Tuesday were a new model the group recently began using. It appears that small quantities of explosives had been implanted in the devices at some stage in the manufacturing or shipping process and then remotely detonated.Hanna said the group might rely more heavily on its landline network — which Israel has attempted to tap into on multiple occasions — going forward, or on even lower-tech solutions such as hand-delivered letters.“Maybe you have to go back to human communication, the postman,” he said. “This is what is really helping [Hamas leader] Yahya Sinwar not to be targeted” in his hiding spot in Gaza.Orna Mizrahi, a senior researcher at the Tel Aviv-based think tank Institute for National Security Studies and former intelligence analyst for the Israeli military and Prime Minister’s Office, said losing the ability to communicate through pagers is a “dramatic blow,” but the terrorist organization has other communication methods and will rebuild its communication network.The bigger damage to Hezbollah was psychological, she said.“It’s the humiliation of having such an operation, it shows how much the organization is exposed to the Israeli intelligence,” she said.Amal Saad, a lecturer in politics and international relations at Cardiff University in Wales who researches Hezbollah, said much of the attack’s impact was the “demoralization and the fear” it sowed.“It’s not just a security breach against the military,” she said. “Hezbollah’s entire society is going to be extremely concerned because everything is liable now to be hacked and rigged.”The group will “be rethinking many things now, not just the pagers,” Saad said.
ran vows 'crushing response' from 'axis of resistance' Nasrallah says device blasts ‘could be seen as declaration of war,’ vows vengeance-Hezbollah leader promises attacks on Israel until Gaza war ends, says country’s northern ‘settlers’ won’t be able to return home until then; IAF jets fly low over Beirut during speech-By Gianluca Pacchiani, Agencies and ToI Staff 19 September 2024, 8:09 pm
Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah conceded on Thursday that the terror group had suffered a “major and unprecedented” blow this week when thousands of its communications devices suddenly exploded, but vowed that the Lebanon-based terror organization would recover and not lay off its attacks on Israel after months of cross-border fire.In a televised public address, Nasrallah blamed Israel for the pager and walkie-talkie attacks of Tuesday and Wednesday, which he said constituted “an unprecedented massacre.”“There is no doubt that we have been subjected to a major security and military blow that is unprecedented in the history of the resistance and unprecedented in the history of Lebanon,” Nasrallah said in his address, filmed at an undisclosed location.“This type of killing, targeting and crime may be unprecedented in the world,” he said, appearing in front of a featureless red background in his customary black turban.The attacks “crossed all red lines”, he said. “The enemy went beyond all controls, laws and morals,” he said, adding the attacks “could be considered war crimes or a declaration of war.”The first round of attacks took place on Tuesday when at least 12 people were killed and thousands injured as pagers held by Hezbollah members across Lebanon exploded in what appeared to be a widescale, coordinated attack. A fresh wave of explosions ripped across Lebanon on Wednesday, appearing to target mainly handheld radios used by Hezbollah members, killing at least 25 people and injuring at least 450, according to Lebanese officials.An Israeli report Wednesday said Jerusalem believes the death toll to be higher than reported, with Hezbollah’s elite Radwan unit hit hard by the attacks.Claiming that the attacks had been meant to kill thousands, Nasrallah asserted that “the Israeli effort has largely been thwarted.”He added that the group would probe how the attacks had happened.Videos posted to social media showed Israeli fighter jets flying low over Beirut and breaking the sound barrier as Nasrallah spoke from an undisclosed location.Over Beirut Now https://t.co/Dzcd5Xz5ws pic.twitter.com/YkflrFEw4k— ???????????????????????????????????????????? (@MarioLeb79) September 19, 2024-Fears have risen that 11 months of exchanges of fire between the two sides could escalate into an all-out war, particularly after this week’s device bombings. Hezbollah-led forces have attacked Israeli communities and military posts along the border on a near-daily basis since October 8, with the group saying it is doing so to support Gaza amid the war there.Israel began moving more troops to its border with Lebanon on Wednesday as a precautionary measure, according to Israeli officials. Israel Defense Forces chief Herzi Halevi held an assessment and approved battle plans for the northern front on Thursday, a short while before Nasrallah’s speech began.Nasrallah said Hezbollah actually hoped IDF troops would enter southern Lebanon because “what they see as a threat we see as an opportunity.”He said Hezbollah was using all means to seek out Israeli soldiers and tanks, and this task would be easier “if they come out toward us. Welcome.”Nasrallah also derided an idea recently put forward by IDF Northern Command head Maj. Gen. Ori Gordin of creating a buffer zone in southern Lebanon, calling the commander an “imbecile.”“We will not fall, and we will come out stronger. We are preparing to face even worse attacks,” Nasrallah said.In terms of retaliation, he vowed, “There will be a just punishment. I will not say when, where or how. You will know when the time comes.”“On Tuesday, Israel intended to kill 4,000 people in one minute by detonating the pagers. Many of them were civilians,” Nasrallah said, though the attacks appeared to have hit only devices used by Hezbollah operatives. “The following day, 1,000 more in one minute. In two minutes, Israel intended to kill 5,000.”“We have suffered a heavy blow. This is war, this is conflict. We know the enemy, not only Israel, but also the US and NATO, has technological superiority,” he said.The Shiite terror leader also referenced the upcoming anniversary of Hamas’s October 7 onslaught in southern Israel. “Shortly, we will celebrate the one-year anniversary of the blessed Al-Aqsa flood operation,” he said.“There is no doubt that Hezbollah, since it joined the fight, has registered impressive achievements in the north of Israel,” he said, claiming that the “criminal” attacks against Hezbollah’s portable devices were conducted by Israel to cover up its incapacity to achieve a military breakthrough against Hezbollah in the north, where it is “embroiled in a war of attrition.”“We say to [Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu, [Defense Minister Yoav] Gallant and the Israeli people: We will not stop our attacks as long as the enemy continues its war in Gaza.”Nasrallah specifically vowed that the terror group would prevent Israel from realizing its recently added war objective of returning Israeli citizens displaced from northern communities near the Lebanon border to their homes.“The goal of the resistance is to prevent the enemy from realizing its goals. Its latest objective is to return settlers to their homes in the north of occupied Palestine. Let me tell the Israeli government, the Israeli army and the Israeli people: You will not manage. I tell Prime Minister Netanyahu: You can do what you want, you will not manage,” he said.“The only solution is to halt the aggression against the people of Gaza. No military escalation, no killings, no total war will return your settlers to the border area. You know it.”Hezbollah’s backers in Tehran also vowed revenge for the device explosions, with Iran’s Revolutionary Guards Commander Hossein Salami telling Nasrallah on Thursday that Israel would face “a crushing response from the axis of resistance,” according to Iranian state media.“Such terrorist acts are undoubtedly the result of the Zionist regime’s despair and successive failures. This will soon be met with a crushing response from the axis of resistance and we will witness the destruction of this bloodthirsty and criminal regime,” Salami said in his message to Nasrallah.The axis of resistance refers to Iran’s proxies in the Middle East, including Hamas and Hezbollah, along with Yemen’s Houthis, and Iraq’s Popular Mobilization Forces.Iran’s envoy to Lebanon, Mojtaba Amani, was among those wounded in Tuesday’s explosions, suffering injuries to the hand and the face and reportedly losing an eye.So far, the skirmishes on the northern border with Lebanon have resulted in 26 civilian deaths on the Israeli side, as well as the deaths of 22 IDF soldiers and reservists. There have also been several attacks from Syria, without any injuries.Hezbollah has named 478 members who have been killed by Israel during the ongoing skirmishes, mostly in Lebanon but some also in Syria. Another 79 operatives from other terror groups, a Lebanese soldier, and dozens of civilians have also been killed.
After blasts, Lebanon bans walkie-talkies and pagers from flights leaving Beirut-Devices also banned from air shipping after two-day attack on Hezbollah, allegedly carried out by Israel-By Agencies and ToI Staff 19 September 2024, 7:54 pm
BEIRUT, Lebanon — Lebanese authorities on Thursday banned walkie-talkies and pagers from being taken on flights from Beirut airport, the National News Agency reported after thousands of such devices exploded during deadly attacks on Hezbollah this week.The Lebanese civilian aviation directorate asked airlines operating from Beirut to tell passengers that walkie-talkies and pagers were banned until further notice.
