Israel's War Against Hamas - Updates




Our defense systems are deployed, we are prepared for any scenario, both in defense and attack. The State of Israel is strong, the IDF is strong, the public is strong.We appreciate the US standing by Israel's side, as well as the support of Great Britain, France and many other countries.

I established a clear principle - whoever hurts us, we hurt him. We will defend ourselves from any threat and we will do so with coolness and determination.

I know that you citizens of Israel are also keeping your cool. I urge you to listen to the directives of the Home Front Command.

Together we will stand, and with God's help - together we will overcome all our enemies."
 


And it begins.

Iran has just launched an attack on Israel!!

Their drones and missiles headed to Israel and expected to hit throughout the night.

What kind of drones or missiles is unclear, but suffice to say, this is a massive escalation.

Make no mistake, this is a historic event and will be a defining moment.

Pray for Israel.
 


These drones are the same “Shahed” drones that have been terrorizing Ukrainian cities, and will take hours to reach Israel - at least 6 hours if launched from Iran.

Oct 7 atrocities? A continuation of over 100 years of genocidal Arab campaign

On CNN, Apr 11, 2024. 10:42pm with Abby Phillip, Pro Nation of Islam Hitler-fan Farrakhan - Melina Abdullah, Islamist bigot, 'naturally,' refused to denounce Oct 7.

She went on about "75 years ago" and even stated "a state that was founded on G". Nevermind that the --Arab on Jews-- massacres and the genocidal calls of Itbakh [Adbakh] al Yahud began over 100 years ago: in 1920 [Another Tack: A-Dawla ma’ana], 1921, 1929 [October 7 Happened Before, in Hebron], then some 3 years after Arab-Palestine's leader, al-Husseini the Mufti rushed to offer help for the Nazi regime barely 2 months with Hitler ascend to power, that 1936-9 terror with the help of Nazi Germany's weapons, and of course we all know his crimes during WW2 and the consensus among Arab-Palestinians right after that, cheerfully backing his leadership.

As a journalist put it: 'The language of Hamas’ leaders echoes the language of Al-Husseini, who invoked listeners on Radio Berlin in 1944 to "Kill the Jews wherever you find them."'

As to mass-rape, that was already back then in 1929 Hebron massacre: "He learned that they had been living in Hebron for generations, that they knew their Arab neighbors well and regarded many of them as friends. In fact, the Sephardic community had been living in Hebron for eight hundred years, the Ashkenazim for perhaps one hundred. ... Sixty-seven Jews had been killed. Most were Ashkenazic men, but there were also a dozen women and three children under the age of five among the dead." [Year Zero of the Arab-Israeli Conflict 1929] [https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-moral-duty-to-destroy-hamas-ba626a41] on non-Zionist pious Jews, as well as in the other massacre which the aforementioned al-Husseini and Arab-Palestinian teachers instigated ahead of the Al-Muthanna / Futuwwa led Arab-Nazi pogrom in Iraq June-1941, the Farhoud. Author: 'Toddlers and babies were murdered in the arms of their parents. They also attacked girls and women and raped them in front of the men and then abused them, cut them to pieces and spread their organs all over.' [Yehude Bavel].

And what about "75" years ago? Truth must be told about the genocidal calls by Arab leaders, from the Muslim Brothethood (Hassan Al Bana on Aug 1, 1948: "If the Jewish state becomes a fact, and this is realized by the Arab peoples, they will drive the Jews who live in their midst into the sea" [AIM TO OUST JEWS PLEDGED BY SHEIKH; Head of Moslem Brotherhood Says U.S., British 'Politics' Has Hurt Palestine Solution (Published 1948)]) to Arab League (Azzam Pasha on Oct 11, 1947: "a war of extermination and momentous massacrewhich will be spoken of like the Mongolian massacre and the Crusades" [Azzam's Genocidal Threat]), and others. As well as the massive German Nazis, ex SS, training and aiding Arab soldiers to fight in 1947/8.

The first "liberation" guy [PLO], Ahmad Shukeiri [Shukairy] who advocated for Hitler during WW2 [Congressional Record] [Congressional Record] [February 03, 1967 - Image 9] and, with Jamal Husseini, had justified the Holocaust [‎⁨Behind the British Conspiracy ⁩ | ⁨B'nai B'rith Messenger⁩ | 12 July 1946 | Newspapers | The National Library of Israel] less than a year after, declared days ahead of the Six-Day war that "none of them will survive." [‎⁨emtorial ⁩ | ⁨B'nai B'rith Messenger⁩ | 11 August 1967 | Newspapers | The National Library of Israel].

Worth mentioning, that Oct 7 Arab Palestinian sick attackers were laughing [https://www.cnn.com/2024/01/04/middleeast/sexual-assault-october-7-israel-witness-int/index.html] as they raped and shot people in cold blood, or the large group surrounding hostage girl jeering as she wails [Terrifying new footage shows Noa Argamani being seized by Hamas], or the racist Arab nasses in Gaza rejoicing with jubilation upon receiving the injured hostages and some beating a boy too. I.E. it is the frightening revelation what happnes when just given the opportunity, the twisted groomed masses, to dehumanize Jews, by radical Imams' sermons and official media - burst out in the open.

First Abdullah tried to cop out by saying she is not a member of Hamas, but the anchor replied "I'm also not a member of Hamas and I have no problem to condemn the Oct 7 attacks." Then she began that ranting: "I find it..."

She appeared with Israelophobe Cornell West and reaffirmed proudly BLM's pro-Palestinian statement right on Oct 9.

The issue of Hamas' vision of an only Islamic state was not mentioned.

West (who also repeated that "75" song) seems more misguided seen it in his black liberation lense, than cynical malicious-Melina.

One can fairly assume, these two "activists" would not want to know that the essence of Arab rejection in 1947/8 was explicitly Arab racism. In the words of aforementioned Jamal Husseini representative of the Arab Higher Committee (AHC) at the time, that it would be against "Arab homogeneity." [Israel's Moment]. This same Jamal, on Sep 29 1947 served notice that they would drench the soil of the Holy Land "with the last drop of our blood in the lawful defense of all and every inch of it." [PALESTINIAN ARABS REJECT U.N. PLANS; WARN OF A BATTLE; Jamal el-Husseini Threatens to Drench Holy Land With Blood 'in Lawful Defense' (Published 1947)].
If one seeks the 'perfect' combination of racism and genocide, that is.

Iran launches dozens of drones, cruise missiles at Israel.
Cabinet ministers summoned to military HQ in Tel Aviv; IDF confirms attack begins, warns GPS disruption possible; Israel closes its airspace as of midnight ; Biden due to speak from WH.
ynet correspondents, Agencies | 04.14.24

Iran began its planned attack on Israel late on Saturday with hundreds of drones and cruise missiles launched from Iran. The attack comes after the killing of a senior member of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) in a strike on Damascus that was attributed to Israel.

British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said on Saturday he condemned Iran's "reckless" attack against Israel, which he said showed that it was "intent on sowing chaos in its own backyard".

"These strikes risk inflaming tensions and destabilizing the region. Iran has once again demonstrated that it is intent on sowing chaos in its own backyard," Sunak said in a statement. "The UK will continue to stand up for Israel's security and that of all our regional partners, including Jordan and Iraq."
Al Arabiya is reporting that some of the UAVs and missiles were shot down by U.S. military.
The IDF spokesperson confirmed cruise missiles and hundreds of drones were launched and said they would need between 2 to 5 hours to reach their target and a second wave is seen as possible.
Jordan's air defenses were ready to intercept and shoot down any Iranian drones or aircraft that violate its airspace, two regional security sources said. They said the army was also in a state of high alert and radar systems were monitoring drone activity.
Iranian television quoted the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) saying the attack which they have named "The Real Promise," has began. Earlier Supreme Leader Ali Khamene posted his speech threatening Israel on his account on X...
Reuters quoted two security sources in Iraq who said dozens of drones had been spotted flying from Iran toward Israel over Iraqi airspace in what Iranian Press TV called "extensive drone strikes" by the Revolutionary Guards.

Netanyahu convenes War Cabinet ahead of broader Security Cabinet session.
“The State of Israel is strong. The IDF is strong. The public is strong,” said the Israeli PM.

(April 13, 2024 / JNS)
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Saturday night decided to convene the War Cabinet and then the broader Security Cabinet.

The move comes after Iran dispatched dozens of unmanned aerial vehicles from its territory towards Israel, in a much-anticipated response to the April 1 killing of several IRGC officers in Syria.

The drones were expected to take several hours to reach their targets in the Jewish state.

“Citizens of Israel, in recent years, and especially in recent weeks, Israel has been preparing for a direct attack by Iran. Our defensive systems are deployed; we are ready for any scenario, both defensively and offensively,” said Netanyahu.

“The State of Israel is strong. The IDF is strong. The public is strong,” he added.

Lawmakers react to Iran’s drone attack on Israel.
By Filip Timotija - 04/13/24 10:32 PM ET

Israeli Iron Dome air defense system launches to intercept missiles fired from Iran, in central Israel, Sunday, April 14, 2024. Iran launched its first direct military attack against Israel on Saturday. The Israeli military says Iran fired more than 100 bomb-carrying drones toward Israel. Hours later, Iran announced it had also launched much more destructive…)

Iran launched a missiles and drone attack on Israel on Saturday, in retaliation for the alleged Israeli strike on the Iranian embassy that took out two senior Iranian officers.

The attack started late Saturday night local time in Israel. Israel has its Iron Dome air defense system on high alert, and American forces have reportedly intercepted several Iranian drones targeting Israel.

Several lawmakers and officials reacted to the Iranian attack, which is expected to target the Israeli government and military sites.

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) said that Israel is facing a “vicious” attack and the U.S. “must stand with its ally. Johnson accused President Biden’s administration of “undermining” Israel.

“As Israel faces this vicious attack from Iran, America must show our full resolve to stand with our critical ally,” Johnson’s office said on social media platform X. “The world must be assured: Israel is not alone.”

“I will continue to engage with the White House to insist upon a proper response. The Biden Administration’s undermining of Israel and appeasement of Iran have contributed to these terrible developments.”

Republican Sen. Marsa Blackburn called for the U.S. to retaliate against Iran.

“Iran has begun launching drone strikes on Israel,” Blackburn said on X. “@POTUS — we must move quickly and launch aggressive retaliatory strikes on Iran.”

House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) announced the lower chamber would change schedule for next week to consider Israel legislation.

“In light of Iran’s unjustified attack on Israel, the House will move from its previously announced legislative schedule next week to instead consider legislation that supports our ally Israel and holds Iran and its terrorist proxies accountable,” Scalise posted on X.

“The House of Representatives stands strongly with Israel, and there must be consequences for this unprovoked attack,” he continued. “More details on the legislative items to be considered will be forthcoming.”

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), a longtime Israel ally who called for new elections in the country last month, said he “stands” with Israelis.

“As Israel is under attack from Iran, we stand with Israel and its people, and the United States will do everything we can to support Israel’s defense against Iran,” he said on X.

Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto (D-Nev.) said the U.S. stands with Israel and that she will “continue” working to bring support for the country’s defense.

“The United States stands firmly with Israel and its right to defend itself against attacks from Iran and its terrorist proxies,” she said on X. “I will continue working in the Senate to deliver the support Israel needs to protect itself.”

Iran did not expect: these are the countries that sided with Israel against it.
The Iranian attack was widely condemned around the world, but the international response was not limited to talk - several countries participated tonight in defending against the unprecedented threat, including our neighbors.

A historic night passed over our country, when 331 missiles were fired at Israel from Iran, in the first ever direct confrontation between the two countries. On the one hand, not the history we would like to experience, on the other hand, the IDF's response to the unprecedented threat was impeccable, which is reflected in the fact that the incident ended with almost no casualties, except for a 10-year-old girl who was seriously injured by shrapnel, and with very little damage to property. Another positive aspect What can be taken from this night - the reaction of the world.Hundreds of UAVs and ballistic missiles: an unprecedented Iranian attack on Israel

The deterrence failed, the containment succeeded: Iran's attack makes it clear to everyone who is the head of theOnline.

Opinion Ma'ariv.

From the moment it became known that the Iranian attack had begun, it received widespread condemnation from all over the world, including harsh messages from France, Germany, Austria, Argentina and also from countries that have recently harshly criticized Israel on the background of the fighting in Gaza, such as Canada for example. But the international support was not only expressed in words, but also in actions.

First: the US Army cooperated closely and in full synergy with our forces, when most of the Iranian weapons did not reach Israel at all, due to the response of air defense systems and the US Air Force. In addition, British Army planes took to the air over the borders of Cyprus, and were ready to respond yes for any interception that stands in their way.Jordanian air defense systems also operated tonight, and intercepted dozens of threats, despite Iran's direct threats to our neighbor - that if it takes part in the defense, it will be considered an enemy. Saudi Arabia, which is considered a moderate Arab country in the region, expressed concern about the situation. Its neighbor on the other side - Egypt, was tonight on high alert with its air defense systems and air force.
