Hezbollah Leadership eliminated

[Hardy Boy]

You are right HB, the US could stop this but there is a huge pro Israel lobby there which makes it difficult for main stream politicians to do what is right.  The only one who tried was Jimmy Carter.  The UK only suspended 30 licences out of about 300 which was only a gesture.  It has had little effect on the key exports.  I do think we have to wake up to this.  History will judge us harshly.  I take comfort from the fact that many Jewish people are opposed to the actions of the Israeli government, and some are leading  the campaigns here and internationally.  They do that despite attacks from the Zionist lobby, which makes it very hard for them.

 

I often think that the USA is Using Israel now to weaken Iran, they seem to be taking out Iran's Proxies,  Iran is a big worry for the USA with the Nuclear programme and the influence thay have in the Middle east, it's seems to me that they are in with it underhanded?

I think this answers what iv'e been saying,  the USA are backing and promoting what is happening in Lebanon?

Biden calls Hezbollah leader Nasrallah's assassination 'justice' and 'enhances' U.S. military in the Middle East to prevent all-out war as Iran vows revenge

100 per cent Netanyahu went to the USA before the strike took place to seek assistance and asurance and backing, it was all planned beforehand with the USA who are as much behind it as the Israel leaders themselves.

I agree HB.

Afaik Mossad is considered even better than MI5/6 and CIA in terms of intelligence gathering.  Given Mossad's recent successes in targetting Hezbollah leaders and others via electronic devices and the targetting of the right buildings it rather begs the question how 7th Oct happened on Mossad's watch?

Israel appears to have wiped out the entire Hezbollah chain of command. Including Hassan Nasrallah. 

In a speech a few years ago, Nasrallah said:

Lebanon was a Christian country, but we took it and now it’s ours. After we kill all the Jews in Palestine, we will just have begun. We won’t stop until every country on Earth is ruled by the law of Allah and the people of Islam, like our prophet promised.

Netenyahu's currency is high after the stunning successes against them.

Hezbollah will appoint a new leader, re-group and come back stronger.
 
Meanwhile, we have the rather gorgeous BBC Middle East correspondent Hugo Bachega delivering the news.

    Too true, CC. Those gloating over the killing of Nasrallah along with hundreds of civilians have lost their souls. It will only strengthen Hezbollah in the long run. Hezbollah aren't going away. Nasrallah's killing and those civilians slaughtered have created yet more volunteers.
    I'm sure that you are a better judge than I when it comes to Hugo's charms.

What has happened to Gringo?  I miss his enlightening posts.

     :-[Very kind of you, CC.
    I haven't posted for some time largely because I had assumed that everyone had seen through the Western facade by now. This includes the usual apologists for Empire, whose own lack of posting indicated that even they could no longer pretend that the side bombing hospitals, civilian infrastructure, UN centres and refugee camps(to name a handful of their crimes against humanity) were the good guys, and were keeping a diplomatic silence. Kind of, it's all been said and is now unfolding. A multi-polar world is being born and the old uni-polar Empire isn't bowing out gracefully, to no-one's surprise.
    The deliberate targeting systematically of civilians particularly in the last few months has ripped off any veil or mask that apologists for these monsters have previously hidden behind. Freedom/Democracy/Human Rights are an an embarrassing joke and shouldn't have the same rallying effect when those shouting it are committing obvious genocide and crimes against humanity live on foreign and social media day after day after day.
    The civilised world looks on in horror whilst western governments and their compromised media normalise genocide and ethnic cleansing, amongst sundry other crimes against humanity. The Zionists and their sponsors are morally and ethically indefensible.
    The world is coming together against Empire, CC, and the balance of power in the world is shifting away from the West. Militarily, economically and the soft power of narrative control are crashing down. The BRICS summit in Kazan on October 22nd also promises big developments especially around de-dollarisation. Slowly, slowly, cut by cut the fall of Western Empire is building and seemingly unstoppable.
     False flags, massive terror attacks are to be expected. It is, after all, the MO of Western Empire. I doubt it will be a smooth transition(but hope otherwise), although it could have been if we had leaders in the West who weren't compromised and acted in their own national interests rather than the interests of mysterious corporations, financial interests, lobbyists and warmongers.
     Well, that's my two minute rant, for what it's worth.

Hugo Bachega delievered the BBC's lunchtime bulletin from the Middle East.  Today he was wearing a tight fitting black t-shirt.  He usually wears a dark shirt. Toned biceps and upper body.  I wonder how long the war will go on for?

I agree Cutie, when you look at it now.............. cell phones and emails are out because they are too traceable. Pagers and walkie talkies blow up. In person meetings are tracked and bombed. Seems like the options keep shrinking for communication, i would hate to go to the toilet in case the bog roll exploded? They should set some phones up around London and catch the Phone snatchers with the exploding phones.
