Hi Karl,

I thought your reading audience might like more information on the boycott of Israel. https://bdsmovement.net/Act-Now-Against-These-Companies-Profiting-From-Genocide

Response to Karl Sanchez' "Vengeance or Eschatological Rage? Both Are Genocide in Gaza"

"Most of that 40 Million are Christian-Zionists who dream of the Final Days, yet another eschatological delusion)."

They might someday be surprised to find that it isn't a delusion. Of course, it will be their Final Days, not ours. If they choose to contest the new Transhuman species, well, it will end much worse for them than it does for Captain Kirk.

As b noted at Moon of Alabama, Nasrallah said what happens on the battlefield is more important than his speech, so we can't count out a fuller intervention by Hezbollah in the coming weeks. That will finish the Israeli economy, as I've said for many years: with Hezbollah able to keep the entire Israeli population in bomb shelters 24x7 for months, the economy will evaporate. Nasrallah has to weigh the costs of the inevitable US and Israeli retaliation on Lebanon, which may sour Hezbollah's public image (allegedly already rocked by earlier events), but my guess is that will not prevent Hezbollah from acting more forcefully. The current process appears to be an incremental increase in activity, a sort of "boil the frog" approach which will increasingly hamper Israels ability to target Hamas.

Speaking of Hamas, I saw a picture over at Andrei Martyanov's site that showed a street full of destroyed Merkava tanks. Some estimates put the number lost at 100 or more during the conflict so far. Israeli casualties will quickly exceed the 2006 war with Hezbollah if that keeps up, if it hasn't already.

The stupid Israelis can't comprehend that they have to kill or move 2.3 million people. That's impossible and too time-consuming if it isn't. Only dropping several nukes could accomplish it and that would destroy Israel. And long before Israel can move or kill that many, the rest of the world will come down on them like a ton of bricks, regardless of Israel's nukes. As I've said before, Russia can take out most of those nuke launchers without even leaving the Black Sea and probably even the Israeli submarines can be tracked and sunk by Russian and Chinese, maybe even Iranian, subs.

Israel is doomed if they don't back down. Good riddance to another fanatical deluded state. Simplicius covered the disintegration of Ukraine's political structure in an article today. That war is almost over.
