IDF troops posed inside the Palestinian Legislative Council before blowing it up | Israeli troops destroyed the Palestinian parliament building in Gaza on Wednesday, describing the act as part of the war against Hamas. ● Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Arabic-language spokesman, Ofir Gendelman, posted a minute-long video of the demolition on X, formerly Twitter. It showed the heavily damaged building exploding in a pillar of smoke and dust, as Israel Defense Forces (IDF) troops in nearby trenches laughed and cheered.

There is a complex history behind Israel’s October 2023 Plan to “Wipe Gaza off the Map”. It’s Genocide, An Absolute Slaughter: 💬 “We are going to attack Gaza City very broadly soon,” Israel’s chief military spokesman, Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari, said in a nationally broadcast address, without giving a timetable for the attack.” It’s a criminal undertaking based on Israel’s doctrine of “Justified Vengeance” which was first formulated in 2001. (See below: my January 2009 article published at the very outset of Israel’s 2008-2009 invasion of Gaza under “Operation Cast Led”) The “Justified Vengeance” doctrine propounds in no uncertain terms that (despite its limited military capabilities) Palestine rather than Israel is “the Aggressor” and that Israel has the right to defend itself. It is now established that the Hamas October 7, 2023 attack was a False Flag operation carried out by a “faction” within Hamas, in liaison with Mossad and U.S. intelligence.

US officials have backed the country’s allegations that militants are stationed within the complex | [...] On Tuesday, IDF spokesman Daniel Hagari said the Israeli Army considers Gaza hospitals to be legitimate military targets, and reiterated claims that Palestinian forces maintain a command center in underground tunnels below al-Shifa. ● Hamas later denounced the IDF raid, saying it would hold both Israel and the US “fully responsible for the repercussions of the occupation army’s storming of the Shifa Medical Complex.” The militants accused US officials of peddling a “false narrative” that would enable “more massacres against civilians,” after the White House backed Israeli claims that Hamas was using the hospital for military purposes.

[Editor: False narrative? Absolutely! The Zionists want to destroy the hospitals, thus slamming the door shut behind the Palestinians in Gaza. This presumably would make them migrate in the direction of Egypt. It will do no such thing. The death toll will move upwards. The genocide is already a fact; the only uncertainty being the final numbers.]

A new preprint study up for peer review finds billions of residual DNA fragments in COVID-19 mRNA vaccine vials. | A new preprint study up for peer review finds billions of residual DNA fragments in COVID-19 mRNA vaccine vials. ● The lead author of the study, molecular virologist David Speicher, who has a doctorate in virology, told The Epoch Times that the study is "the largest study" on residual DNA in COVID-19 vaccines to date. 💬 "In our study, we measured DNA copies of spike, ori (origin of replication), and SV40 enhancer genes," he told The Epoch Times. "The loads of SV40 enhancer-promoter, ori, and virus spike in Pfizer are up to 186 billion copies per dose."

   ● U.S. lawmakers are derailing funding for Israel's and Ukraine's military spending for this year. The reasons are technical and... not quite technical. It is clear that everything will resume in the new year. However, it is an important symptom of the development of the disease.
   ● If the story with Israel is obviously technical, because this country is more important to the U.S. Congress than its own, the Ukrainian regime is more complicated. As has been repeatedly noted in this channel, America easily betrays "its sons of bitches" when they become useless. It seems that this period is definitely coming for Kiev. And it's not just the Republicans and Democrats squabbling on the eve of the U.S. presidential election. They're just fed up. They are fed up - they eat too much money, steal wildly and do not achieve military success. Plus, the Israeli-Palestinian mess happened. In short, support for the "son of a bitch" is nearing its inevitable end. Not overnight, of course.
   ● There will be a lot of money, and schizoid incantations about democracy, and bravura assurances of the coming victory on earth, and false beliefs in alliance for all times, and so on and so forth. But the situation is clear: the time to go to oblivion for the next American " son of a bitch" is coming.
   ● The problem is that this Bandera spawn never realized who he [really] is...(DeepL + LanguageTool)

INGIn London on Saturday, one million people came out in support of a Free Palestine. This is the largest march the UK has ever had in support of Palestinian liberation, and follows marches of similar size in Istanbul, Jakarta and Mexico City. Around the world, protests have grown in magnitude over the past several weeks as the Israeli atrocities against the Palestinian civilians in Gaza continue unabated. | Tens of thousands marched to the capitol in Austin, marking the largest protest in solidarity with Palestine in Texas history. Tens of thousands marched multiple times in Kuala Lampur, Malaysia. Hundreds took to the streets in San Juan, Puerto Rico to rally in support of Palestine and to demand Israel agree to a cease fire. This is the third such protest in Puerto Rico’s capital since the siege began more than a month ago. [...] All of the protests called for a ceasefire in Gaza, and most called for an end to the brutal, decades-long Israeli military occupation of Palestine. Some chanted “From the River to the Sea, Palestine Will Be Free”

RSF, allied Arab militias targeted Massalit civilians in el-Geneina suburb of Ardamata in ethnic-based killings, witnesses and local activists tell Middle Eeast Eye | Around 1,300 people, mostly civilians belonging to the Massalit tribe, were slaughtered in Sudan's West Darfur over three days earlier this month by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and its allied Arab militias. The massacres in Ardamata, an area on the northeast outskirts of West Darfur's state capital el-Geneina, were committed after the RSF, a paramilitary force, expelled Sudanese soldiers from a military base in the suburb during battles from 2 to 6 November. ● For the second time in a matter of months, the streets of el-Geneina and its surroundings have been left filled with corpses. Witnesses said the scenes were reminiscent of June, when Arab militias and RSF fighters killed more than 500 people in what human rights organisations described as ethnic cleansing against the Massalit, a Black African tribe.
