“Isræl’s actions are straight up biblical-level evil. If the Jéwish religion were true, then God will be coming to destroy them for disobeying him again. There’s so many dead kids. Shooting little bøys in the Testic…..!?”
— @scotthortonshow

This is the moral line.

Every Jéw outside Isræl now has a choice:

Reject Ziønism publicly, or be counted with the ideology destroying Gaza, the West Bank, and most recently Bethlehem’s Christian community.

DMFÏ said Ziønists represent “95% of American Jéws.”

One architect of this evil is Jared Kushner.

Trump on Monday: Netnyahau is not my boss! I'm his! And we're ending this war!

Trump today: We're again bombing Iran like Netnayahu wants!

(I love the notion that Iran is the aggressor by attacking a US helicopter there to impose a full embargo on Iran, a classic act of war).

Sen. Tom Cotton's "Intelligence Authorization Act" Seeks To Hand Over U.S. Intelligence To Israel

[Joe Kent @joekent16jan19]

I’m skeptical that President Trump can secure a deal with Iran at this point in the war — I’ll explain why that is below, but let me first caveat my skepticism by reiterating: we don’t need to a deal to just declare victory and walk away. It’s the only way out of this mess in the short term that will deliver anything that looks like a win for the U.S.

Why can’t we reach a deal with Iran?

1. Iran believes they are winning—and they are not wrong to think they are. Iran is exploiting powerful leverage, which we delivered to them: closing the SOH has obviously significantly hindered the flow of oil/gas, putting massive pressure on us and the global economy.

Today, President Trump announced that the U.S. Navy has secretly escorted 200 oil tankers out of the SOH. While this is positive news and may have helped temper rising oil prices somewhat, the impact is not substantial enough to prevent a major energy crisis. These 200 tankers transiting the SOH over the past 100 days represent only about 2% of the normal volume—roughly 10,000 ships every 100 days—prior to the war. Furthermore, the U.S. has to deploy major naval and air assets to keep the SOH open. This is not sustainable and works to Iran’s advantage in the long run: Iran can disrupt commerce through the strait with relatively little effort, while the U.S. must risk two carrier battle groups simply to move 2% of the normal amount of oil and gas.

2. The Iranian hardliners have been emboldened and have no interest in reaching a deal. For years before the war, there was major tension between the moderates—who were open to dialogue with the U.S.—and the more militant factions of the Iranian government, primarily senior officers in the IRGC. At the outset of the war, we killed the leading moderate figure (moderate by Iranian standards), Supreme Leader Khamenei, along with several of his civilian counterparts like Ali Larijani. We’ve used the cover of peace talks as a ruse to launch attacks on Iran on two separate occasions. All of this bolstered the hardliners’ standpoint that we cannot be trusted in negotiations and that Iran had no choice but to fight.

3. Israel. Despite reports of tension between Bibi and Trump, the Israelis remain the spoiler of any progress towards a deal and prove it every time there are serious talks of peace. President Trump has made public statements urging Israel to show restraint, but has been ignored and, in many cases, outright defied. The Israelis consider any peace deal with Iran to be unacceptable and a major threat to their nation. Until President Trump takes away some U.S. military support from Israel, they will continue to sabotage any chance of a lasting peace.

If you read one article today, it should be former CIA analyst Paul Pillar’s alarm bell of how the Senate wants to force the US to share sensitive intel with Israel at the expense of the US itself.

“In intelligence, Israel is more of an adversary than an ally. Being an adversary in intelligence means indulging in the hostile act of espionage. Israel has a long record of conducting that type of hostile act against the United States.”

USS Liberty: Torpedoed, Sinking, and Denied Escape

Survivor Lloyd Painter said “the torpedo hit the hull and killed 25 American sailors instantly.”

Then, as he tried to move 20 or 30 wounded men to the life rafts, he saw an Isræli torpedo boat — plainly marked with the Star of David — machine-gunning those same rafts.

@RepThomasMassie said it plainly:
“The Isrælis machine-gunned the lifeboats. The Isrælis were intent on leaving no survivors.”

5:38 — leaked Isræli HQ recording confirms they knew it was American before the attack.

This was not a mistake.

This was an attempt to erase the ship, the crew, and the witnesses.

Just days after news broke that the National Defense Authorization Act for next year would virtually merge the US and Israeli militaries, we now are hearing that the Intelligence Authorization Act is doing the same thing with the US Intelligence Community!

Introduced by Sen. Tom Cotton, the provision would rip open our nation's secrets and hand them over to a foreign country - one that has just been accused of ramping up its spying on us!

Isn't there a name for this?

Amal Khalil was a devoted journalist who also rescued animals in southern Lebanon during Israel’s bombing campaign.

Israel killed her.

[courtneybonneauimages @cbonneauimages]

Fuck you, @washingtonpost . Amal did not ‘die,’ she was deliberately targeted and murdered after receiving threats from the Israeli army. She was in touch with us, her colleagues, during this situation. We all know exactly what happened. Shame on you for intentionally diminishing the criminality of the actions of the Israeli army with this headline. Shame on all of you and your correspondents in Beirut.

I hope to see you on trial for your propaganda in my lifetime.
