🇮🇱/🇱🇧 Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited today the Ramat David Air Force Base in the north
"The Air Force is our iron fist that knows how to strike at our enemies’ soft spots. If we have to, we will prove it time and time again.”
This is the base which Hezbullah was able to photograph (videotape) several times and map for future attacks.

It's important to understand that it's almost impossible to destroy an airbase, or fully end its operations. You can disrupt it, damage sections from it, but airports are resilient.

📸 Golan Heights (occupied by Israel), August 2024

Signed: The Islamic Resistance - Hezbullah

Re: Russia-Ukraine War: World News, Weapons & Battlefield Discussions - Live by Vic2023: 9:36pm On Aug 21
⭕️Video | Hezbullah released footage of their attack on Al-Raheb site, the Shtula settlement in northern occupied Palestine, and the Tsnobar base in the occupied Syrian Golan.

In the attack on Tsonbar base, rockets also impacted inside the illegal settlement of Katsrin, destroying a house and injuring an Israeli settler.

Notice in the footage of the attack, how a darker brown smoke is there? This is from fires caused from the rocket launcher, and has always been an issue that exposes launch sites and increases the threat of wild fires. A con for camouflage in such areas.

⭕️ Footage also shows the remarkable usage of an underground traditional artillery system, and a standalone launch of a Burkan rocket towards Shtula settlement and Al-Rahib base.

He made some good points honestly, the US is really good at dancing around the legal frameworks of most conflict resolutions to suit their aspirations, a clever move if I might add .

Clever or deceitful? Clever or cunning? If it was Russia or Iran or North Korea that dances around legal frameworks or deliberately mistranslates agreements, would anyone say the same thing?

🇮🇷🇮🇱⚡️- Iran’s permanent representative to the United Nations: “Iran’s response to Israel will be very precise and extremely sudden.”
Re: Russia-Ukraine War: World News, Weapons & Battlefield Discussions - Live by shoodboi2: 9:41pm On Aug 21
This thread is a very funny place. We have seen a human being who has spent a good part of the last 48 hours into redefining genocide just to deny the fact that Israel is committing a genocide in Gaza.

According to him, a genocide only happens when the population being massacred reduces. The fact that Israel keeps bombing them, killing them by the tens of thousands, destroying their homes, cementing their wells, burning their farms, and stealing their land is not genocide.

His sense doesn’t tell him that Palestinians have higher birth rates than Israel, which allows them to retain their population.

He is the joke here. I have been seeing his comments since this morning and it just gives me a headache. Please everyone should ignore him henceforth.

As for the argument about the founding of NATO and by extension, why Russia is very concerned about NATO, this statement by NATO solves everything:

Mind you, the statement is from NATO’s official website:

It is often said that the North Atlantic Treaty Organization was founded in response to the threat posed by the Soviet Union.

This is only partially true. In fact, the Alliance’s creation was part of a broader effort to serve three purposes:

-- Deterring Soviet expansionism

-- Forbidding the revival of nationalist militarism in Europe through a strong North American presence on the continent

-- Encouraging European political integration


As you can see, even NATO agrees that the so-called claims of the Soviet Union being aggressive is only half-true.

NATO was founded to prevent the Soviet Union from expanding its influence into neighboring countries and at the same time, prevent European states from arming themselves (before they start another war among themselves and tag it “World War”), and cause them to better integrate with themselves.


This should solve all the noise about NATO being founded due to Soviet aggression on this thread once and for all.

This is the link to NATO’s site: https://www.nato.int/cps/en/natohq/declassified_139339.htm

Knowing this about NATO, if Ukraine was any sincere, it should have joined the European Union and not NATO. The EU is an economic alliance (that doubles as a military and political alliance).

NATO is a military alliance. And not just any military alliance, but one that is fixated on containing the Soviet Union, and now, Russia.

Anyone can say whatever they want to justify Ukraine joining NATO. But whether justified or not, Russia has every right to be concerned, and afraid. Russia has every right to act. Your security should not put another man’s security at risk.

🇵🇸 Palestinian Head Mahmoud Abbas, during his visit to Turkey on August 15, canceled a dinner with parliament members, fearing an assassination attempt by Israel

The newspaper Hürriyet writes about this, citing sources.


As the publication notes, “nothing is more understandable than Mahmoud Abbas’s caution at a time when Israeli killings are happening everywhere.”

The head of the Hamas politburo, Ismail Hanini, was killed in an attack on his residence in Tehran. The movement blamed Israel and the United States for the killing and vowed to respond.
