๐งตSome thoughts re where we're at:
1. Hamas committed war crimes on Saturday.
2. Hamas war crimes are not justified by Israel's war crimes.
3. Hamas war crimes don't justify Israeli war crimes, before or since.
4. Calling out Hamas war crimes doesn't invite Israeli war crimes.
EL-SAYED: I get that the President takes personal offense to my first name. He doesn't mind as much when it's the Saudis who are funding his son-in-law's private equity. Doesn't seem to mind as much when it's the Qataris who are giving them a $400 million private jet. He just seems to have trouble pronouncing it when it's my name.ย
I don't care how he pronounces my name. I don't even care that he remembers my whole name. Because he can just go on and call me senator after November.

Sheffi Paz, who almost single-handedly pioneered lynch-mob-level, specifically anti-African racism in Israel and has vocally and virulently hounded subsaharan African asylum seekers and their kids for a good 15 years, has died.

When Israel went to war against Iran in the past, its generals and spies were behind Netanyahu. He no longer has that level of support:
"Israel's intelligence community does not accept that the Iranians have restarted their nuclear programme, nor that there is any imminent threat that currently justifies going to war." economist.com/middle-east-anโฆ

I flew into Israel yesterday along with thousands of others who flew in explicitly to vote in the upcoming election.
All the planes were full.
Except mine. At least 100 people were turned away during checkin-told by those at the counter that the plane was full.

More than 2,000 people in Hebron appear to have suffered similar fate to Ahmed over the last ~48hrs. Demolitions, expulsions, evictions, displacement.
Netanyahu is threatening a broad operation in West Bank โsuch as has not been carried out since the Six-Day War.โ
Reminder Netanyahu had to beg for this
Trump on Truth Social: To the people of Israel, to those who havenโt seen it, I am attaching the Endorsement I gave one week ago to your Prime Minister, Bibi Netanyahu. As everyone is aware, including the enemy, Bibi and I have had a great relationship in winning together. I did the Venezuelan attack, one of the most successful Military Operations in History but, before that, we did Operation Midnight Hammer, stopping the Worldโs Number One State Sponsor of Terror from obtaining a Nuclear Weapon. Then we did Operation Epic Fury, and Iran now has No Navy, No Air Force, and both their Military and Economy are in shambles, including the fact that Iranโs Inflation is at 301%. The Naval Blockade has precluded them from getting Oil, and two levels of leadership, both Military and otherwise, are gone. When you go to the Polls please remember that Bibi has been an outstanding Warrior Prime Minister! Israel was called The Little Satan, with the United States being called The Big Satan, by some very evil people. There can no longer be the chant heard around the World of โDeath to America, Death to Israel,โ and there wonโt be. Vote for Bibi Netanyahu for Prime Minister, we have to finish the job that we started! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Zamir was Netanyahuโs military secretary from 2012 to 2015. At his appointment in 2025, Bibi publicly said he had previously tried *twice* to make Zamir chief of staff. And he was finally getting his man.
So if Eyal Zamir is ringing the alarm bell: then there really is a fire.

I might be wrong, ofc, but I just don't think any provocation short of overt attack would invite Iranian strikes on Israel. Iran has twice proven capable to absorb devastating first strikes and still fight attackers to a standstill. No reason for them to change tack now.
๐จINCREDIBLE breaking C12: IDF chief of staff has received a certain instruction from govt w regard to Iran. Details of request remains classified but Zamir responded by formally requesting (the seemingly lacking) "thorough discussion, a written order and legal assurances."
