This is good.. when an interviewer lays out proper context to frame an interview she has with Israeli president Herzog. Instead of keeping viewers stupefied as is usually done in the MSM. Chatham House (UK based think tank) director Bronwen Maddox vs Herzog. Look at him squirm!

They finally went after the other director for “No Other Land”. Used settler violence as an excuse to raid his home and interrogated his wife while he was at the hospital with injured relatives. He cannot return home.

Been a lot of chatter on social media (even among RW'ers) about an Israeli angle to the Charlie Kirk assassination. So much so that the ADL had to put out a statement addressing these 'anti-semetic conspiracy theories'. Even N'yahoo was asked to address this in an interview.

What seems to given rise to these theories was that Kirk in the last few weeks was breaking away from his pro-Israel stance and questioning the Israeli narative on Gaza, Oct 7, their influence over Trump admin, attacking Iran and Epsteins Mossad connection. Kirk even hosted Tucker and anti-Zionist comedian David Smith in recent weeks. He also declined N'yahoos invitation to visit Israel and new funding offers from US zio-billionaires.

Apparently Kirk received a lot of pushback from some of his powerful backers over this. And that if TPUSA were to move in that direction it could pose an existential threat to Israels support in the US. They've already lost the Dem base and losing a significant part of the Rep/MAGA base could be insurmountable to them.

I'm not pushing any conspiracy theories, just noting certain facts that may give rise to them. Including Israels rich history of world-wide assassinations since its inception in 1948 and the audacity to pull them off, no matter how complex (ie, Hezbollah pagers, Iranian scientists, Hamas, Pal targets in the region and in Europe).

The Gray Zone has an interesting article on this.

Given Turning Points product, it seems like a business decision.
When your main product are getting nazi worshipping white Christian nationalists voices in schools, Israeli influence looks bad since they are pretty heavy handed.

Turning Point losing its neo nazi/antisemitic demographic would kill its numbers and having antisemitic conspiracies floating over its head is bad for business.

They would lose the support of Red Squirrel

If you reduce a region that previously contained just shy of 2 million people to ~90% rubble, the actual casualty figures aren't ever going to be only a third of the population, especially when you factor in that Israel intentionally bombs highly populated areas, tells people to evacuate (then the evac centres are even more densely populated and have no structural defences), then bombs the evac centres.

What do people here reckon, will Israel resort to more thorough measures (and debatably too on-the-nose for a nation born from the Holocaust), or will indiscriminate shooting, bombing, starvation and encouragement of rampant disease tactics be sufficient for Israel's desires in this situation?

"Leave your home and walk to the dirt patch miles away surrounded by tanks and fences. We need to cleanse this area of undesirables.
Cleansing process will be thorough and we will turn the area to dust. This will include your home and all its contents. The infrastructure required for your home will also be cleansed.

Once the area is cleansed, you will be given further instructions and may be given the oppurtunity to return to your home, which of course will be dust. That dust may or may not be removed from the region as it is a safety hazard.

If you refuse to leave your home, it will be assumed that you are admitting to be aligned with the undesirables.
In that case you may remain in your homes during the cleansing process and you will be able to spend the rest of your life in your home."

I think the idea that the country is being controlled or manipulated by a foreign power to such a destructive degree is a horrendous proposition to anyone. Pretty sure all political persuasions, left, right, the extremes can find common ground there. Only hard core zios might not. Its whats driven Tucker, Candace, Bannon and MTG and Charlie looked to be moving there too.

One wonders if that was the actual intent? Get Qatar to pay some (to the tune of billions of $$$) "protection money" for enhanced US protection? More billions can only mean more funds getting lost here and there and unaccounted for.
better check the terms and conditions of that treaty with a fine tooth comb.....bet there's an exemption for a certain plucky ally of 'ours'

sounds like the Saudi's agree that America's word isn't worth shit anymore.....

Pakistan and Iran signed a series of new deals as well yesterday
And I dont think its because of Trumps idiotic mishandling of policy, but the US regardless of party or president. As long as Israel is the one calling the shots, the US has no credibility with anyone anymore.

Pakistan and Saudi Arabia are already partners and this takes it to the next level.

Pakistan gets money and reliable oil supply.
Saudi gets a substantial amount of expertise and pipeline for Chinese weapons and doctrine.

China defense industry wins as Saudi continues to diversify and look beyond what is now seen as a unreliable and fading partner thanks to 2 bouts of the Trump regime bizarre nonsense.
Both Pakistan and China get a better look at US tech, tactics and organizations through Saudi channels.

Iran benefits as channels further open up between Saudi Arabia and India and Intel flows between China/Saudi/India/Pakistan due to Trump Regime behavior.

Saudi now has a reliable nuclear armed partner that has an established manufacturing capability (aircraft) with a supply chain connected to one of world's major players. If they continue the path with Iran, they now have another partner with deep development and manufacturing capability.

This is a charmer by a shithead no good facist:

'Netanyahu, meanwhile, criticized Egypt publicly for its refusal to accept Palestinian refugees from Gaza. He recently accused Egypt of "imprisoning against their will residents in Gaza who want to leave a war zone."'

I.e, we are going to require YOU to take refugee as we bomb the crap out of them.

Tik Tok, which in recent weeks hired an ex-IDF instructor to combat "hate speech" with a focus on anti-semitism, is to be bought by a small group of Zionist billionaires.

Larry Ellison, Oracle mega-billionaire, with close ties to Trump and Netanyahu, along with Andreessen Horowitz are in final stages of buying Tik Tok. This comes after the recent acquisition of Ellisons son of Paramount/CBS and bringing onboard Zionist journalist Bari Weiss and her Free Press corp to basically oversee its news and editorial policies.

I think too little too late to salvage Israels deteriorating image in the US. ppl are now smarter and know when they are being fed BS and will just shift to alternate news sources.
