As you would know, David, Australia, after Israel, being the US's favourite #1 bumboy, just paid $798 MILLION to Trump ( a tiny deposit on a $360 BILLION total price) to be able to play along with the 'destined-to-fail-AUKUS' program for some nuclear submarines, expected to hopefully hit the water in 2042, but subject to the whims of 4 more US Presidents before delivery day.
I mean, Trump will not be around for the opening show, of course, but many billions of Australia's dollars will be safely tucked away in the pockets of his friends by then, providing of course that the US Empire itself is still around. (Unlikely)
That's the interesting part of being an Empire. Your lifespan is very limited when you take partners such as Israel and dance to their dirty ethic cleansing tunes, steal countries like Canada and Greenland, take over major transport hubs like Panama by force, declare war on the likes of Venezuela just for oil and gas, build tourists extravaganzas like Gaza Holiday Resort with the Gaza Country Club and Gaza Beach Hotel (Jews only, of course) and continue to prop up the European Military Club called NATO, formed to do its bidding in the wars against everybody, far too many to mention.
However, fingers crossed, there is a slim chance that they could end up with a President in 2029 or 2033 or 2037 or 2041 who is not a nihilist but a sane, decent and honourable man, not bribed with foreign money nor controlled by Military / Industrialists, Bankers from the Davos Club and the like, who thinks that health, education, social security, world peace and friendship are much more important objectives. Just a chance.
I absolutely HATE, DETEST, LOATHE, ...etc. the US Empire. I may be naive, but I believe the world will be a BETTER place WITHOUT the existence of this Empire. Now on to the REAL question -> WHO (and HOW) will someone/something rid the world of this monstrosity and incarnate evil that is the US Empire ???
It's looking like the Empire is imploding all on its own from the combined effects of a metastasizing infestation of lawyers and two generations of MBAs who come out of University to manage our economy after never having worked a day in their lives.
I've come to pretty much the same conclusion. Hopefully their vindictiveness won't cause them to take us all with them. After all we are dealing with a conglomerate of psychopaths.
And that is the problem. Exceptional psychopaths Zionist jews and christians are so beyond repair and reason. I believe that this will not end without almost total annihilation of human life. Still better if you ask me than living in the west-dictated dystopian society.
The ones I wonder about are the Zionist atheists. So is it outright racism when there is no actual Jewish "race" (they're mongrels like the rest of us)? Or is it just the unbounded desire to see destruction and misery inflicted on the powerless? I really don't get it.
I don't know about you but for me it is easy. At my age I don't think I have a lot of years left anyway. It is my grandchildren and great grandchildren that I am worried about. Hopefully they will see this through to the other side.
I understand and I agree. I am also sad and concerned for the generation of young people who did not start this. I cannot live normal life while watching jews murdering and torturing unarmed Palestinian children and civilians while fascist genocidal west is applauding and encouraging it.
Add to that, Brian, a US Defense Secretary who probably wouldn't know an F35A fighter jet from a small Cruise Missile Destroyer but who now controls a budget of $US 1 Trillion dollars.
Now that is a serious anomaly if ever there was one. Princeton University for this one. His experience working at Guantanamo Bay a great advantage in his new role.
Nothing... It's the Western institutions that are missing the use of their already shallow thinking faculties in the service of the US and Zionist agendas
Nothing is wrong with us that can see all their acts of evil with clarity, it's them and those still allowing themselves to be gasliighhted by them that should be questioning themselves... Alas, they never and never will until the moment they take their final breaths and that moment can't come soon enough I tell ya
The immense ability of the idiot mongrels in DC to twist reality into an inedible pretzel and deny simple logic that when there's nothing to eat everyone loses body mass.
I'm a bit puzzled, gypsy. The first 3 or 4 released Zionutty women were well-fed and looked like Hamas had done their best to divert resources to them -- I'd speculate as a PR win. Let's face it, these guys are fully aware of the need to counter the PR war against them. I surmise that as Israhell released the first bunch of emaciated abused Palestinian hostages, Hamas responded in kind in terms of ceasing to waste resources and just fed the remaining hostages the same paltry calories available to most folks in Gaza. Again, just a speculation.
My guess was that all hostages are not kept together in the same location with the same access to food, water and hygiene. It would then stand to reason that some will be in better condition than others due to the different logistics issues in those different locations. I have also heard that different groups have held different hostages. Hamas may have been the coordinators of the release, but it could be they were not the actual captors, which could also make a difference in the treatment and condition. This of course, would not be of any meaning or interest to those wanting any excuse to resume the fighting. But given the failure the last round of 15 months brought them, it's not clear how they will do much better in the next round.
A reasonable guess, and if the "next round" includes another shutdown of humanitarian aid as I fear it will, the horror will continue, which in itself is both mind boggling and terribly sickening at this point. Where have all the flowers gone When will they ever learn.
Yes, I recall that report and in that light, your explanation sounds completely reasonable, especially in the way it contrasts the social customs of the two societies -- the chosen ones who kill and injure indiscriminately and the oppressed ones who are far more careful to distinguish combatants from POWs. Illustrating exactly who is or isn't truly civilized (hint: it surely isn't the Zionazis).
There was a report that Israeli soldiers were ordered to sodomize the Gaza hostages? Forget beating them or starving them? The outrage about malnourished guys should be the least of anyone concerns
Caitlin, It is not that the Gaza ceasefire is being sabotaged - there was never a ceasefire in the first place. While so many ceasefires were being touted and the media propaganda went into overdrive, the Israeli regime and its backers did what they know best. Went on bombing, destroying, pillaging ,killing and starving. Do we have any reason to believe that the most depraved of humanity will keep their word?
What happened to the ceasefire in Lebanon I wonder... They got a puppet government in place and made a liberation movement irrelevant.
In the first place a ceasefire is between equals.Israel has all the firepower needed to annihilate humanity and lay waste to lands; Hamas has no army, no bombs, nothing; Israel has the backing of the powerful US/West; and a propaganda machine that will make the most outrageous of lies look plausible. The Palestinians don't even have the support of the so called Muslim brotherhood. The Arab Nations didn't lift a finger to help the Gazans.
So the talk of ceasefires is just a conjuring trick. Surely we are all aware of that by now. Today the emperor gave an ultimatum - " ... if by Saturday 12 noon , if all the hostages are not released, all hell will break loose...".
We have to accept that majority of people in US and Israel love ethnic cleansing and genocide. as a former ex military, i have seen this first hand. We took oath to defend USA not to serve the empire killing innocent people and bootlicking tyrants and psychopaths.
Jenny, I believe that the intent is to slaughter them all, whether by armament, starvation or disease.
Now, what if a large group of us multinational supporters went to Gaza ( say, at least 1000) to help in any way we could? Would the Zios dare slaughter us? And suffer the repercussions of our collective nations?
During the west's inevitable implosion, I want to see a free Palestine, and for the rest of us who live in the west to find ways of supporting each other and surviving together.
Our work will definitely be cut out for us just to survive. I think we are about to see the naked Deep State possibly going as far as to exterminate those of us who are speaking out. Hopefully they will get theirs before they get that far.
Kushner reportedly penned the note card that Trump read the "own Gaza" plan from.
This short video compares Jared Kushner to Hunter Biden. Jared Kushner heads a $3.5 billion investment firm, Affinity Partners, invested in by Saudi Arabia, Qatar and UAE, with the intent to invest Arab nations in Israel, and a stated interest in developing Gaza commercially, rather than in the interests of Palestinians.
This could reflect the note passed to Trump, reportedly from Kushner, about the America-owning-Gaza scheme, as well as Trump blurting out that "everybody likes the plan", which is not a national position of any Arab country.
This is a closed investment vehicle until summer of 2026, which would facilitate one-big-project in that time, but does not exclude other investment approaches.
Israel, USA, Netanyahu, Trump totally disgusting beings! Absolutely no conscience! I wish that I knew how to stop this insanity, but it’s not being done in many of our names!⚖️🕊️🇵🇸🇵🇸
Let's not forget that the next phase in the hostage release was to include Hamas leaders and spokesmen . Israel and Trump are hand in glove playing bad cop and viscous vindictive cop in tandem.
No people or country in their right minds would rely on any agreements with the US and Israel.
Things are worse under Trump but that's not saying much. Just go back to hundreds of US broken treaties with native tribes.
Shameful and monstrous.
Israel has set world records in assassining the negotiators of the other side. Imagine, just imagine, being sent to negotiate with Israel knowing those bastards might kill you.
Having the world media shilling for you, means Israel doesn't worry about exposure on that front.
re: media complicity. yeah, virtually no pics of palestinian wounded and killed. it's all grossly disproportionate. I have no respect whatsoever for the traditional media outlets.
the notion of a 'free press' entertaining some kind of ethical standard like a sort of hippocratic oath (compare the tripe in the article vs arrests of medhurst, ali abunimah, death of countless palestinian reporters, ...) sure got another set of significant blows in this episode. also can confirm european press duplicity on the reasons for hamas' postponing. letting 'alledged' stand while it's a reporter's job to verify if the statement on the ceasefire violations is correct or not.
They're doing their best to distract us. Here in Australia, Anti-Israeli graffiti is now an act of terrorism.
I can remember when terrorists had bombs and we had free speech.
Now we no longer have free speech and it's our governments and their allies wielding bombs.

Good luck with that one, America.
I wonder if the Gaza Country Club will include a Trumpland theme park?
Perhaps with such rides as the Golden Parachutes and the Slide into Fascism.
They "can not end up with a President in 2029 or 2033 or 2037 or 2041 who is a sane ". There are none such.
Can you imagine they'll surrender willfully ?
The only hope is brics, but still - war with Russia/brics is coming.
Hold your breath ,people .
Who will that be? I don't see anyone.
I absolutely HATE, DETEST, LOATHE, ...etc. the US Empire. I may be naive, but I believe the world will be a BETTER place WITHOUT the existence of this Empire.

Yes, I suspect the end of the US Empire will likely come from an internal implosion (much like the Roman Empire and so many others).
I've come to pretty much the same conclusion. Hopefully their vindictiveness won't cause them to take us all with them. After all we are dealing with a conglomerate of psychopaths.

those who work do not have money, just for necessities . and even with that .... we are needed for exploitation.
guess we can all sit back and do nothing then?
Well, BRICS and their members look to be having a good try.
Why would hostages be anything but emaciated if food aid is not allowed entry into Israel? What am I missing?
Nothing... It's the Western institutions that are missing the use of their already shallow thinking faculties in the service of the US and Zionist agendas
Nothing is wrong with us that can see all their acts of evil with clarity, it's them and those still allowing themselves to be gasliighhted by them that should be questioning themselves...

On the other hand, Vin, I’ve seen a released female hostage who was actually overweight.
I'm a bit puzzled, gypsy. The first 3 or 4 released Zionutty women were well-fed and looked like Hamas had done their best to divert resources to them -- I'd speculate as a PR win.

That’s a good theory, Vin. I had considered this myself.
But I really suspect the women receive better care BECAUSE they were women. Muslims honor and protect them.
One of the previously released female hostages had this to say when she expressed fear that Israhelli bombs would kill them:
She said she was told “Women are queens. We will die before we allow you to die”.
The last three female hostages released were fit and healthy, came out speaking Arabic, and talked about arm-wrestling matches with their captors!

also read some re-enlisted immediately.

Israel should “let hell break out.”
Hmm... It's actually been "hell" in Palestine since before 1948.
Caitlin, It is not that the Gaza ceasefire is being sabotaged - there was never a ceasefire in the first place.

💯👍 Completely agree on all points!
re lebanon: isrealis didn't fully withdraw as promised resulting in footage of an israeli woman confronting an israeli tank.
Hi Indu
I think that tRUMP is the one who needs to worry about “all hell breaking loose”, right here in Amerikkka.
We have to accept that majority of people in US and Israel love ethnic cleansing and genocide. as a former ex military, i have seen this first hand. We took oath to defend USA not to serve the empire killing innocent people and bootlicking tyrants and psychopaths.
Hamas is right about Israel’s violations
👉🏾20 Gazans killed
👉🏾attacks on West Bank ongoing
👉🏾foodId trucks not allowed in
👉🏾US supplies israel 2000lbs bombs
👉🏾US provides Israel $7.8 billion arms
👉🏾Trump want to remove Gazans
👉🏾Israel states to destroy Hamas after hostage release
Where exactly are these Palestinians going to go (the ones left standing). Egypt/Jordan won't take them. Syria probably not.
Jenny, I believe that the intent is to slaughter them all, whether by armament, starvation or disease.
Now, what if a large group of us multinational supporters went to Gaza ( say, at least 1000) to help in any way we could? Would the Zios dare slaughter us? And suffer the repercussions of our collective nations?
I’d do it in a heartbeat; I am afraid of nothing.
Yes Gypsy I think they would slaughter us too.
The best thing that can happen is Yemen starts blasting rockets again and it looks like Iran is getting fed up with idle promises.
MY best guess, having read and listened to TOO much info. (my head is spinning) Israel is finished.
Arab nations are coming together.
Correct, Jenny. They WOULD slaughter us. But I’d be counting on outrage from the various nations from which we came (well, maybe not Amerikkka.)
But I agree that Iran is our best hope to tame the vampires.
Don't think our Govts. would care.
Probably right.
During the west's inevitable implosion, I want to see a free Palestine, and for the rest of us who live in the west to find ways of supporting each other and surviving together.
Our work will definitely be cut out for us just to survive. I think we are about to see the naked Deep State possibly going as far as to exterminate those of us who are speaking out. Hopefully they will get theirs before they get that far.
Again, Peter;
More of us than them!
Can’t wait for the next Luigi.
As an American, I admit that my country deserves nothing good.
Except perhaps a good swift kick in the hindquarters
Hi Vin
Someone wrote on another thread that we should deport the IsraHellis to Greenland… and they’d be the “Frozen Ones” 😂

Hamas Suspends Further Hostage Releases As Trump Says No 'Right Of Return' Under His Plan https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/hamas-suspends-further-hostage-releases-trump-says-no-right-return-under-his-plan
The word own is so retarded.
Everything is a one way street for the empire of lies(mafia). It matters not
what the facts are. And when those facts don't matter anything goes, I don't
believe they sent those 2000lb bombs to the zionist pigs to collect dust.
Trump is governing as if he's King Donald and that's not good for the world
Israel, USA, Netanyahu, Trump totally disgusting beings! Absolutely no conscience! I wish that I knew how to stop this insanity, but it’s not being done in many of our names!⚖️🕊️🇵🇸🇵🇸
Power selects strongly for sociopathy.
And vice versa!
