“We are not cobwebs to be brushed aside. We have sinews of steel” | Bibi Netanyahu

 

Click above for the video 
Occasional Readers, who are no fans of Benjamin Netanyahu -- who are Moshav residents, self-described as “secular, cosmopolitan, liberal”, say the following:

Bibi made this great speech to Israelis where he said “I did this, I did that.. “ and pissed most of us off..  it was “we”.. plans for this have taken years and involved the best of Israeli’s and he wants to take the glory.. and the irony is he couldn’t say “I failed Oct 7th”, or even, we failed.. and now he’s tanking the economy .. 

Assuming we're talking of the same speech -- the one above, and I can't find any other than the one above, recently, that is a Netanyahu "speech to Israelis" — then I don’t see that at all. I disagree, Occasional Readers! 

I have looked at both versions above, one with spoken translation and one with the subtitles. I see nothing of the “I did this, I did that..". Indeed, I see quite the opposite. 

The first two sentences of the speech above are: “The one who rises to kill you — rose and kill him first.” This, apparently, is an ancient Jewish saying. And then, second sentence: “The State of Israel has eliminated the arch terrorist Hassan Nasrallah.”  

All I see is Bibi saying "We". Towards the end of the speech he gives and specific, clear, tribute to all the people that made it happen -- from the beeper attacks to the successful elimination of Hassan Nasrallah:

"I would like to thank the IDF, the Air Force, IDF Intelligence, the Mossad and the ISA, for the great achievements, and not just yesterday". Clip here.

It is a gross misrepresentation, a disgraceful distortion to claim that Bibi said “I did this. I did that”, when the fact is the exact opposite. It’s all “We” and no “I”. Is this some kind of Bibi Derangement Syndrome?

If I were Israeli, I would thank whatever God I believed in, that we have a man, a leader, like Benjamn Netanyahu. A true leader for the times. The Lion of Israel. The true leader of the free world (see his UN speech). He has borne the slings and arrows of constant criticism, from inside Israel and from the feckless, inconstant, weak, domestic-politics-driven Biden administration, most of it unfair, and yet come out on top, in what was by any measure a gutsy call -- to kill the head of Hezbollah. A leader's call. 

They don't deserve a hero, the Lion of Israel, those self-described “secular, liberal, cosmopolitan” Israelis who were so "pissed off". I feel like saying shame on them, but better not. That would be too rude. 

As for the "failure on October 7th", my understanding is that it was a failure of Army Intelligence, not of Mossad, and not so much a failure of the intelligence itself, as a failure of the political leaders to take warnings seriously. They had warnings, but didn't believe them. Like happened before the Yom Kippur war. And my understanding is that the failure to take note of the warnings was by the Left in the Knesset — the “Gazans are peaceable” brigade — not of Likud. That may be wrong, or it may be right. In any case, to blame Netanyahu, with no sound evidence, simply because he was the PM, is obviously a form of "Blame everything on Bibi". Again “Bibi Derangement Syndrome"?

====================
Some random questions: 
(From here and there)
  1. Will the huge setback that Hezbollah has suffered, as the key proxy of Iran, mean that Iran is forced to speed up its nuclear program? 
  2. If so, and given that the nuclear program was to be protected by Hezbollah, which is decimated, does that mean that Israel can more safely fly missions to Iran to knock out the nuclear facilities?
  3. Will the huge setback that Hezbollah has suffered, as the key proxy of Iran, mean that Iran is forced into the arms of Turkey? 
  4. Will the huge setback that Hezbollah has suffered, as the key proxy of Iran, mean that Iran is forced into the arms of Russia or China? 
  5. Is the world a safer or less safe place as a result of the last few weeks' of Israeli actions against the Jihadi Borg? My own view: we are more safe. Even as some of the questions above are unanswered, to date. 
Some random notes: 

The IAF, the Israel Air Force, is now in charge of the Beirut airport. It is refusing landing of Iranian flights. 

Israel is also telling ships coming from Iran and Turkey that they can't dock in the Port of Beirut. Thought not clear to me how they're enforcing that order. Makes sense, though. 

The 30% of Lebanese who are Sunni Muslims and the 30% of Lebanese who are Christians in Lebanon are celebrating the death of the world's King Murderer, Hassan Nasrallah. They're all celebrating, together with Muslims in Iraq, Iran and Syria. Even Saudi Arabia is on side with what Israel has done. 

“Only Israel can be attacked on 7 fronts and still be considered the aggressor”

 

That’s the feeling of the world, from the US to the EU and Gulf States and of the UN. And even the feckless Pope. And, sad for me, includes my own country Australia. The belief that Israel is the aggressor, in Gaza and now against Hezbollah. And so they are calling for “ceasefire” as soon as Israel begins any self defence. They were calling for “restraint” on October 8!

Their line is: “ Israel is entitled to self-defence, BUT…” followed by a litany of warning of what israel must not do. What Netanyahu must be sure to avoid doing. 

Bibi, the Lion of Israel, has wisely shut his ears to the capitulationist surrender monkeys. Which capitulationism has only given the Middle East 75 years of war, by Arab Muslims trying to kill Jews. This is no “land-for-peace issue” or “occupied territories” issue.  It’s a “get rid of all Jews from the Middle East” issue. A “Kill all the Jews” issue.

Instead, the Lion of Israel has the balls to kill the head of Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah. And change the very face and momentum of war in the  Middle East.

If one wants the “other side”, critical of Israel right through to pro-Hamas, pro-Hezbollah, pro terrorist, “peacenick”, one needs only go to the BBC, CNN, ABC, MSNBC, on cable, or the likes of the New York Times and Washington Post where all those views are loudly and endlessly bruited. This here is just a bit of balance. Just a tiny bit. Especially since many pro-Israel think that Israel has been losing the media/propaganda war since October 7.

Israelis celebrate.

Muslims in the Sunni Islam world celebrate. 

People of good will around the world celebrate. 

I celebrate. 

We all celebrate. 

Well... not quite all. Some Israelis don't celebrate. They are worried this might upset Iran. Or something. Some Lefties in the West don't celebrate, the likes of AOC, Biden, Blinken, Kaaaam'la, Penny Wong, Macron. Treacherous quislings the lot of them. 

And other assorted anti-semites, don't celebrate. Like you see on X. 

But those with a moral compass. Those that know the difference between Good and Evil. These people, we all celebrate the killing of the arch-enemy of Good.

Benjamin Netanyahu speech to the United Nations

Click above for the video
Five minutes after this speech to the United Nations, on 28 September, Benjamin Netanyahu got a phone call. The IAF were ready to attack Hassan Nasrallah, the butcher of Hezbollah, in his Beirut bunker. Bibi gave the go ahead. And the rest is history. 

History at its best. 

"Ladies and Gentlemen, we got him!" | The killing of Hassan Nasrallah

 "Ladies and Gentlemen, we got him!"

The immortal words of the feckless Paul Bremer in 2003, when they got Saddam Hussein. 

Getting Hassan Nasrallah, head of the Hezbollah brigade, the forward arm of the Iranian Republican Guard Corps, is much more significant. I'd say. Because Iran and its proxies are more dangerous than Iraq ever was. Bigger. Larger military. Near Nuclear. Supported by Russia. And China, a bit more covertly. 

But it's happened! The brilliant IDF, with the brilliant Mossad, tracked him down and killed him. 

Yay! Three cheers for the good guys!

Israel bombs Nasrallah

Erick Stakelbeck is a bit of a god-botherer and I don't have much time for Biblical prophecy as predictive. But still he's a knowledgable commentator on Israel, spends a lot of time on the ground there, and strikes me as being of sound mind. 

We -- those of us who love Israel and hate Jihadi terrorism -- are exultant at recent Israeli IDF triumphs. Which just may include the killing of Hezbollah leader Hassam Nasrallah. Not confirmed yet. But I hope so. We have no doubt that it's a good thing if Nasrallah is now consorting with those 72 virgins, his houris. And telling Allah how Great He Is. We have no doubt that it's a battle between good and evil, that Israel is good and that Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthis are bad. No doubt. With moral clarity. With certainty. Just as the allies were good and the axis were bad. That's it. End of. 

ADDED: 

Israelis are coming together to help those who've been driven from their homes in north Israel. They've got Food Kitchens happening an they need help. I've sent my help. There's a bit about this in the vid above.

What’s going on with the West calling for a ceasefire against Hezbollah?

Click above for the video 
Good stuff from Caroline Glick. As usual. She much qualified. In IDF. Embedded war reporter. Connected in U.S. and Israel. 

Exulting, as do we all who care for the moral, the correct, the decent side winning. The civilised side vs the barbaric side. For the other side of this coin just turn on your CNN, BBC, ABC…. This here is the pro Israel side. With facts and figures. 

We exult. For the destruction of Hezbollah. So many are tough Jewish women. Like Caroline, above. The Quad. 

While the United Nations comes out again as sleazy and useless. Supposed to implement UNGA Resolution 1701, bit failed. And now claiming immunity for its UNRWA workers who took part in the October 7 massacres. Shame and scandal.

Couple of points from Caroline:

  • Hezbollah is best seen as the forward position of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps. Iran funds, trains and arms them. It’s Iran in southern Lebanon.
  • Hezbollah/ Iran have no interest in a state, or the two-state solution or any swap of land for peace. As for Hamas, their single, clear, oft-repeated aim is the destruction of Israel and killing of all Jews. 
  • The IDF has a huge tactical advantage against Hezbollah and has destroyed a lot of its rockets and infrastructure. 
  • Just as Israel is gaining a winning advantage the West and some Arab states are calling on it to ceasefire. Alsmot as if they want Iran’s proxies to survive and Iran to remain strong. Hmmm….
  • In addition to killing and wounding thousands of Hezbollah operatives with Beep, Beep, Boom, the IDF has killed a huge chunk of Hezbollah’s leadership. Looking pretty lonely at the top there for ol’ Hassan:

“Please, Madame Vice President, do it for your country: QUIT!” | Kathleen Parker

Let us not forget this: that everyone — including everyone on the Left, all the Democrats, not to mention independents and Republicans — thought Vice President Kamala Harris was the worst politician ever. Her polling was terrible. She had the lowest approval rating of any Vice President ever. Ever. That is true, a true fact; it’s not my imagination. 

Yet now she’s the "second coming of Obama". She's wonderful and amazing. 

Which of course she’s not. We have to remember and recognise this. Her performances on softball shows like Oprah or on NPR or on CNN, all have been less than stellar. They all show that her mediocrity is real and that her poor polling was well-deserved. 

Below is an example in WaPo. Kathleen Parker is today telling us how wonderful Kaaaa-mla is. Just a few short months ago she was begging her to Quit! I mean, we’re allowed to change our minds. But in three months?! And all of you, every single one, in the media?! 

Give us a break, mainstream media!

“Please, Madame Vice President, do it for your country: QUIT!”

Kathleen Parker, Washington Post 15 March 2024

The Democratic Party’s indulgence of identity politics has proved successful in building a diverse organization, but its strategy of courting (and pandering to) minority voters is the road to ruin.
In 2020, Joe Biden’s promise to tap a woman as his vice president — along with Rep. James E. Clyburn’s election-altering endorsement in South Carolina — paved Biden’s way to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
His “history-making” selection of the telegenic Kamala D. Harris might prove to be his downfall in 2024 — and he has had enough fall-downs to make voters worry. Harris’s résumé was impressive. A former California attorney general and sitting U.S. senator, she seemed to have been created by Central Casting. Or was it artificial intelligence? As the first Black woman and the first woman of Asian descent to be nominated for vice president, she was a doubleheader.
But her evolving beliefs undercut that appeal.

Is Israel at war with Lebanon? Boom, boom boom | Ruthie & Mark

Click above for the video 
From the intro:

Israelis in cities across the country's central region woke up early Wednesday morning to air-raid sirens warning of incoming terrorist missiles fired by Iran-backed Hezbollah from Lebanon.

The attack comes after a series of major Israel Defense Forces victories over the past week.

Tune in to "Israel Undiplomatic" for a complete assessment of what has been happening and how things may unfold between Israel, Hezbollah and the Islamic Republic of Iran.

Join JNS senior contributing editor Ruthie Blum and Mark Regev, former Israeli ambassador to the United Kingdom—both former advisers at the Prime Minister's Office—as they share insights not to miss.

I’m with Ruthie on this. Hardline. Not the language of luvvie-peacenicks. But the language understood in the region. Victory. Not capitulation. Or… capitulation but only by the terrorists. Not by Israel, especially when it has all the power.

Five big Israeli wins to celebrate. All the “booms”:
  1. Beep, beep, boom. The pager attacks. Acts of counter-terrorism 
  2. Walkie Talkie boom. The mobile radio attacks. More acts of counter terror 
  3. Fly-by boom. Jets over Beirut, breaking the sound barrier to show who’s got air superiority 
  4. Beirut bombing boom: killing 13 top Hezbollah bosses in their Beirut apartment 
  5. Boom boom boom. The current air attacks in Hezbollah missile bases
Mark is upset at Leon Panetta calling Beep, beep, boom an “act of terrorism”. Mark is right to correct this and to be upset. But remember Panetta is a long-time Democrat. Democrats right now are driven more by the Islamist vote in Michigan, than by the reality of war in southern Lebanon. So much so that they can’t recognize that a long-time democratic ally is engaged in an existential war. 

Mark speculates that Iran may not be helping Hezbollah because they have Hezbollah in place to protect Iran’s nuclear bomb program. Not to further the “Palestinian” cause.

Trump landslide?

 

From "On Point Politics". 

This analysis gives the victory to Trump by 312 to 226.

What I fear is dirty tricks. The Dems have shown themselves to be willing to do anything. Including publishing the letter from the latest guy to have a shot at Trump, in which he says he'll pay $150,000 to anyone who succeeds where he failed. Why would the DOJ release that letter?? Polls show that nearly one in three Democrats wish that he'd been killed already. That's crazy stuff right there.

Hezbollah BEGS Iran to attack Israel | Erick Stakelbeck

Click above for the video 
A bit too much God-bothering for my taste, but otherwise Erick Stakelbeck is an interesting commentator on Israel and Middle East. On the Christian news channel TBN. (Which I’ve no doubt Hamas luvvies would smear as “far-right, Christian-fundamentalist, white-supremacist bigots”. Or something). 

I do like that TBN celebrates Israeli wins against the terrorists of Hezbollah and Hamas. Not triumphalist, but celebratory. The other side of this coin — being down on Israel, criticising Israel not matter what they do, hating on their successes, hating on Netanyahu — I get plenty of that on BBC, CNN, ABC and all the rest of the mainstream media. 

Australia’s ABC, for example — the public broadcaster which is supposed to be impartial, is paid $1.2 billion a year in tax dollars to be so, “our ABC” — yesterday called the Israeli strikes against Hezbollah an “aggression”. No mention of  the 8,000+ Hezbollah rockets shot into Israel since October 7th — one of which killed 12 children on the Golan Heights — nor of Iran’s rocket, missile and drone attacks. No mention that Hezbollah two months ago announced its aim to attack and occupy Israel down the  Sea of Galilee. No, none of that. Just wittering about “Israeli aggression” against Hezbollah. 

I’d be shocked if I weren’t so used to this hypocrisy from the MSM. 

ADDED: And booh-sux to those who supported or just abstained from the recent horrid Islamic inspired UNGA resolution on Israel which basically denies Israel the right of self-defence. The Abstainers incudes Australia via our egregious Foreign Minister Penny Wong — she who’s never met a terrorist she didn’t rather like — directing Australia’s Rep at the U.N. to abstain. Not to Oppose, as we should have done, but to Abstain. Shameless cretins. And Wong in a presser talking of a “2-state solution” as a matter of “when not if”, thus proving she knows zero of the issue. Or cares only to be wilfully ignorant, cloaked in her comfy virtues. Dripping insincerity. Oozing self-righteousness. Oh Penny, Penny, Penny… you’ll never add up to a dollar. 

Ok, enough of the ad hominem. But gee it felt good.

The One-Israel Solution: the only realistic option

Click above for the video 
I couldn’t have said it better than Ron DeSantis. Every. Word. True.

Speaking at the Israel America Council meeting. The one where Trump yesterday trod on a rake.

Though, to my shame, it’s only quite recently that I came to understand that the “2-State solution” is not only not possible, but is not even what the “Palestinians” want. Is not what they ever wanted. Try to find a map of a “2-State” which the “Palestinians” would accept. It doesn’t exist. Because that was never the aim and is not the aim today. The aim from the beginning was to destroy the Jewish state. The same Jewish state that in its founding in 1948 had a Constitution which welcomed all people of all ethnicities of all religions into its borders. Contrast that with the Hamas Charter which calls for the genocide of Jews in all of the Middle East and in all the world.

At the end of the vid above he talks of the Jewish state being granted by God. As an atheist Zionist, I don’t think that’s persuasive. I’m more persuaded by the history, the legality, the morality, than by God. Though as he says, in the region nothing is more important than God. Aka Allah. And that is of course true. So it doesn’t matter I guess if I think the God reason is persuasive or not. It’s what counts in the region. And so far it does seem god I’d in the side of the Jews…

And yet. Leaders on all sides — Wang Yi, Kaaaah-mla Harris, Keir Starmer, Antony Albanese — keep talking about the “2-State solution” as if it’s an option. It’s not. The sooner the west recognises the reality the sooner peace will come. You don’t get peace by surrendering. Which is what a call for “ceasefire” is. Surrender. Capitulation.

Trump treads on a rake at Israel America Council … and war with Hezbollah

Click above for the video 
Trump was featured guest at the Israel America Council meeting. They were of a mind to like what he said. But what he said was horrible. Not intentionally so. But still horrid. As Alex Traiman and Josh Hastin describe above. Still, Trump has been better and would be better, for Israel, than Kaaaah-mla would be. But he drives even his supporters to distraction. 

What a maddening man, Trump, who keeps on stepping on rakes. When absolutely not needed. And easily avoidable.

Before that, which comes at the end, Alex and Josh talk the war at Israel’s northern border and into southern Lebanon, to fight Hezbollah’s rocket machine. Ground war may be imminent. In southern Lebanon and even north past the Litani river. 

The brilliance of Mossad, Israeli Intelligence, and the IDF. Which all humans do good will as clear moral compass must cheer. Yay!

“A better deterrence”: Hillary Clinton’s hypocritical efforts to stifle Republicans free speech

 Hillary Clinton has long been one of the most anti-free speech figures in American politics, including calling upon European officials to force Elon Musk to censor American citizens under the infamous Digital Services Act (DSA). She is now suggesting the arrest of Americans who spread what she considers disinformation. It is a crushingly ironic moment since it was her campaign that funded the infamous Steele dossier and spread false stories of Russian collusion during her presidential campaign. Presumably, that disinformation would not be treated as criminal viewpoints.

I wish I wasn't as lazy as I am. Otherwise I'd do the transcript of that wonderful lady, talking straight talk about Trump. From the Black perspective. 

Please let's remember: Trump was beloved of the liberal elite in New York. Right up until the time he went for president and then, so unexpectedly, so surprisingly, so disconcertingly, won. 

Since then they hate on him bigtime. To the tune of wanting him ded. 

But he's the same man they all loved. Until they didn't. But this lady remembers. And appreciates. And does not appreciate that Barack Obama doubled Black unemployment from 8% to 16%.

“Beep, beep, Boom!” | Mossad paging Hezbollah

Click above for the video 
When I first heard the news of Hezbollah’s exploding pagers I thought “Nah”.

“Who uses pagers anymore?” (Gen Z don’t even know what a “pager” is!).

Turns out it was true, and it was Israel wot did it. Turns out Hezbollah had just recently switched to using low-tech pagers because their head, Hassan Nasrallah, told them to switch, because Israeli intelligence could hack their smart phones. 

They tell the rest of the story in the above vid. Also here

And when it turns out to be true, I’m, like, Yay! Hezbollah are, in a word: Horrid. They should not exist in this world. They can go off and exist in their Islamic heaven with their 72 dark-eyed houris, for all I care.

To lefties and luvvies who are upset that the attacks were “indiscriminate” or that “innocent civilians” were killed, I say, booh-hoo. And let’s stipulate that neither side in this War, wants children or babies killed. 

But that’s what happens when you start a war and when your aim is to massacre your Jewish neighbours, man, woman and child. And when that neighbour decides to fight back. You get this. You get exploding pagers. You get Walkie-talkie-boomies. 

For which, to repeat: Yay 🎉!

“Am I Racist?” movie Breaks the Woke, Breaks the Box office

Click above for the video
This is now number 3 in U.S. Box office takings. Which is amazing because:

1. It’s a documentary and docos don’t normally do well in theatrical releases. 

2. It’s a documentary by a known conservative podcaster, Matt Walsh

3. It’s had only limited marketing, limited screens and limited budget ($US 3 million). 

Still, it’s receiving rave reviews on the socials, and 99% on Rotten Tomatoes from the people who’ve seen it. 

The socials say that it’s not overtly political, just shows up the grift of the race hustlers, and makes fun of them. It’s very funny, the funniest film of the year, according to many.

Meantime, the Left has gone insane over this movie as Derek Anderson shows in the above video. If I have time I’ll link to some other YouTube reviews, but if I don’t it’s easy to find them, and they’re all positive. 

So, if you’re in the US, do go along and see it.

And now we have an Occasional Reader in the US who's seen the movie and says: 
Good evening and freshly back from the movies. Great entertainment in sharp focus. It lays bare the incredibly contorted logic of white guilt and systemic racism. 10 out of 10 and a must see. Regards from your friends of color ...

The Obama — Harris administration wants Israel defeated

Click above for the video 

Obama gave us the “be nice to Iran” policy. Result: more money to the “3-H”: Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthi.

Trump gave us Abraham accords. Result: Iran constrained. Terrorism down. No new wars.

Obama-Biden gave us return to “be nice to Iran”. Result: more money to the “3-H”: Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthi.

The Biden administration is the “ally” you don’t really want. Who says “we support your right to defend yourself.” But then does everything to stab you in the back. Because they’re worried about their home politics. Specifically the big radical Islamic community in key swing states. 

From the intro:

Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi terrorists launch a missile into central Israel unstopped by air-defense systems; the situation on the Jewish state's northern border escalates further with Hezbollah shooting dozens of rockets deeper and deeper into the country; and Israel’s left and the Biden administration join forces to topple Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

If you’re in America, time to hit one of the 1,500 theatres it’s now in. Running at 99% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. (Audience score being the only one worth paying attention to, imo. The critics on RT are gonna hate on this movie because it shows up hypocrisy on the Left).
