This might interest you Israel approved new emergency regulations Wednesday that could pave the way for censoring Al Jazeera, the Qatar-based broadcaster that Israel has accused of bias and propaganda that harms its national security.
In any war, information is the 1st casualty and since we've seen that the US has already censored it's own people through the US 2020 elections, making the entire election suspect AND censored the people during the pandemic (this is now unequoivocally proven) they are now censoring anything about the war that may counter their narrative. |

Instead, the Abraham Accords were buried. Trump was smeared, and the US is now headed into TWO SEPARATE WARS (Russia / Ukraine and Israel / Palestine >>> Iran) under the Biden administration with more war looming. Remember, I posted on here OVER TWO YEARS AGO that the US would be going to war with Iran the-comic-book-forum.boards.net/post/85429/threadMany of you will remember the unrest in Iran over the last 2 years, with women's rights being championed. This was most likely a US intervention event. Why were you seeing news from Iran on American television? Why was every single media station pushing Iran onto the news showing humanitarian violations? These violations have been going on for 2000 years. Why pick 2022 as the year to put it in everyone's faces? Because this is how they foment support for war from the public. The US decide who is going to be the enemy, the put a spotlight on anything negative and then they just let people simmer and absorb it. Just like they did to Trump. If you'd only watched CNN, you'd NEVER hear Trump make an articulate, world changing speech like the one you just heard. In fact, to people who have never heard this speech and ONLY watch CNN, they'd think that this is fake.  So the US media is basically just one large propaganda machine, smearing it's enemies and then taking the to war. The US even likely funded the protests through cover operations. The protests even have their own Wiki page. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2021%E2%80%932022_Iranian_protests |

If you do an extensive internet search, you will see that almost EVERY LEFT LEANING, LIBERAL PUBLICATION pushed the Iranian protests to the forefront with MAHSA AMINI being chosen as the Avatar for this war. This isn't co-incidence. You always need a very appealing victim to focus on above all others to incite the public. Vox The Guardian CNN Wikipedia (they are well known to be corrupted and very left leaning - proof available if anyone needs it) MSNBC BBC WSJ It's quite staggering how one sided, perfectly timed AND HOW VAST this entire propaganda campaign is.  It literally spans the globe in a concerted effort. |

So, it seems pretty obvious in hindsight that a) the US was clearly planning war against Iran more than 2 years ago (or, I just made a lucky guess  ) b) there is an orchestrated campaign to build consent for a war against Iran as there ALWAYS is before a war is launched. c) they needed an event to trigger the war campaign - as there always needs to be one. ------------------------- Why Israel? I'm not sure yet. Superconductors are the new oil. As we move our reliance from oil to electricity and our intelligence from human surveillance to AI, the natural conclusion is that technology is the future for everything. There really are few countries as powerful as Israel when it comes to leading tech. Albert Einstein, considered one of the greatest scientific minds of all time was born to Jewish parents. Between Israel and Taiwan (the greatest producer of Super Conducters in the world) the US and the West could lock in those two countries in a tech race to win the AI race. Israel is #10 as far as countries go for Superconductor production. Now look at the top COMPANIES by market cap. www.yahoo.com/video/16-largest-semiconductor-companies-market-154350988.htmlGuess who is #1 by market cap in the WORLD?
1. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (NYSE:TSM)
Market Value as of December 4, 2022: $422.67 billionwww.insidermonkey.com/blog/5-largest-semiconductor-companies-by-market-cap-1093635/5/ |

1. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (NYSE:TSM) with a Market Value as of December 4, 2022: $422.67 billion
This single company, in a country the size of about 13,900 square miles (the size of a small US state) has a market cap the size of a medium sized country.
Known as The Republic of China now, they are #2 in the world for Super Conductor production behind only Japan and ahead of the US who is #3
Think about how important that small country is to the future of the planet. And it happened literally overnight as the tech bubble grew over the last 20 yes.
This is why the US is headed toward a war against China as well as Russia and Israel / Iran.

And so, these wars all seem to be part of a larger plan. A protracted foreign policy that is looking to secure future intelligence and tech, destabilize countries that are trying to unseat the US as the World Reserve Currency and a convenient excuse to unilaterally clear out Palestinian / Israeli land in favor of the US.
Let's not forget that it's very convenient to smear Trump in the process AND to reignite a US economy that is in the worst place it's been in nearly 50 years while at the same time keeping people's eyes and minds away from real news like the Biden corruption and money laundering in Ukraine, The Hunter Biden laptop story censorship affecting the 2020 election, the Covid censorship affecting people's personal freedoms and everything else they don't want you to see in this shell game they are playing with your lives.
It's no wonder the Biden administration (and all Western countries) feel they need to control "misinformation" and "disinformation".
They are at the root the greatest misinformation and disinformation campaigns in human history.
They control the globe.
I'd welcome some thoughts and discussion.
Anybody game?

This is a great commentary on the intelligence breakdown leading up to the Oct 7 Hamas attack on Israel.
It certainly colors and may even change how I see some of the discussion points I brought up.
Very interesting stuff.

Welp, the American Thanksgiving Bombing Break is supposed to end soon.
Hopefully they had some good Turkey dinners over in Israel.

Someone bet against the Israeli stock market in the days before Hamas' Oct. 7 attack
Five days before the deadliest attack in Israel's history, a warning may have appeared on stock exchanges.
A study by researchers from Columbia University and NYU called "Trading on Terror?" suggests that a trader may have been aware of the coming attack, bet against the Israeli economy and walked away with a profit by short selling on the U.S. and Israeli stock exchanges.
Short selling is a trading strategy aimed at making a profit off an asset that is expected to drop in price; the seller "borrows" a security and sells it on the open market with the goal of buying it back later at a lower price and pocketing the difference.
The study looked at the Israel Exchange-Traded Fund, a common way for people to make investments in Israel, which on any given day has around 2,000 shares shorted. On Oct. 2, that number shot up to over 227,000 shares.
According to Columbia Law School Professor Joshua Mitts, one of the authors of the study, "that's extremely unusual."

Norman Finkelstein is a very interesting person to follow in the Gaza / Israel conflict, because he seems to counter MOST of what the narrative of the Legacy media seem to be pushing.
Finkelstein is a lifelong scholar of the Middle East conflict and activist, groomed by Naom Chomsky.
I'll start with this Russel Brand interview. Finkelstein makes the case that Israel brutally and forcefully kept the people of Gaza, one of the densest populated pieces of land in the world under deplorable conditions, allowing resources to keep them in "barely above starving" conditions perpetually, until the day of the attack.
Gaza has been called the world's largest open air ghetto.
He makes the case that the methods that Israel has been deploying in Gaza after October 7th were already being used before October 7th, October 7th simply caused them to increase intensity of those attacks and those atrocities caused / provoked the Oct 7th attack against Israel, while the Mainstream Media tries to make the case that the Oct 7th attack happened in a vacuum, unilaterally.
There are many other factors he discusses in this short video, and this is a pretty eye opening listen compared to what the mainstream news has been sharing.

Norman Finkelstein’s Long Crusade A cantankerous Israel critic takes a rare turn in the limelight.He wouldn’t actually destroy his life until several years later. In 1984, when he was a doctoral student at Princeton, Finkelstein investigated the sourcing of a celebrated new book by the journalist Joan Peters called From Time Immemorial. Peters argued that Palestinians didn’t actually exist and that Zionist colonization had lured non-native Arabs into the region, where they started waging war on the Israelis. It was mostly a fabrication, Finkelstein discovered, based on fudged demographic data, but a consensus had already formed that this was a monumental work; it was gushed over by the likes of Saul Bellow and Elie Wiesel. Initially, no U.S. publication would touch Finkelstein’s findings (In These Times eventually published them), nor would any American academic except for Noam Chomsky, who became his mentor. “You’re going to expose the American intellectual community as a gang of frauds, and they are not going to like it,” Chomsky warned his protégé. “And they’re going to destroy you.”

I've been fascinated by and studying the Middle East in detail, since the mid 90's, so almost 30 years, and used to even have the Jerusalem Post delivered to my door in Canada pre internet age. Try again.  At least you didn't pull the namisgr error of discrediting Russell Brand.  I wasn't posting that for me. I was posting it for everyone else. |

I think I can speak for most here and say BS, you post it for yourself because NO ONE HERE WANTS IT. imagine going to a party and EVERYONE there tells you what a jerk you are and you stick around. Now imagine the party has been going on for years and you never leave. Instead you argue with EVERYONE that no youre not you are humble and top notch. The forum is the party in this analogy. I mean, is that the sign of an intelligent person? Its almost a basic IQ test. Youre at a party. EVERYONE is telling you what a jerk you are. The 2 possibilities and responses for an intelligent person: You arent a jerk. So you leave because why stick around if everyone is calling you a jerk? You are a jerk. LEAVE. |
