وَأَعِدُّوا۟ لَهُم مَّا ٱسْتَطَعْتُم مِّن قُوَّةٍۢ وَمِن رِّبَاطِ ٱلْخَيْلِ تُرْهِبُونَ بِهِۦ عَدُوَّ ٱللَّهِ وَعَدُوَّكُمْ وَءَاخَرِينَ مِن دُونِهِمْ لَا تَعْلَمُونَهُمُ ٱللَّهُ يَعْلَمُهُمْ ۚ وَمَا تُنفِقُوا۟ مِن شَىْءٍۢ فِى سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ يُوَفَّ إِلَيْكُمْ وَأَنتُمْ لَا تُظْلَمُونَ

وَإِن جَنَحُوا۟ لِلسَّلْمِ فَٱجْنَحْ لَهَا وَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ ۚ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلسَّمِيعُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ

وَإِن يُرِيدُوٓا۟ أَن يَخْدَعُوكَ فَإِنَّ حَسْبَكَ ٱللَّهُ ۚ هُوَ ٱلَّذِىٓ أَيَّدَكَ بِنَصْرِهِۦ وَبِٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ

— 🇮🇱 Israeli media are furious at Netanyahu

@Middle_East_Spectator

🇱🇧🇮🇱⚡️- Israeli Minister of Security, Itamar Ben-Gvir, has made a statement on the bombing in Majdal Shams:

"Since October 8th I have been saying that we are at war in the north and the enemy must be defeated, and groups of decision makers have for 10 months avoided acknowledging that we are fighting Hezbollah.

Today, no one, no one, including the Secretary of Defense, who sought only to contain Hezbollah, can escape the bloody reality that we are at war.

I call on the Prime Minister to immediately convene the Cabinet of Ministers, also via an encrypted communication channel, to make a decision that I have been demanding for a long time - war in the north now!"

I can really recommend this channel btw – just double check their posts to make sure.

I'd say they're accurate 80% of the time. Good stuff. Good friends.

📄 Netanyahu cuts his visit to the USA, will fly the soonest back to Israel.

His return flight was scheduled after the end of Saturday in the US. So he's coming half a day earlier.

وَمَا لَكُمْ لَا تُقَاتِلُونَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَالْمُسْتَضْعَفِينَ مِنَ الرِّجَالِ وَالنِّسَاءِ وَالْوِلْدَانِ الَّذِينَ يَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَا أَخْرِجْنَا مِنْ هَٰذِهِ الْقَرْيَةِ الظَّالِمِ أَهْلُهَا

صدق الله العظيم

🇱🇧 In the 2006 war, Hezbullah's rockets accidentally fell on an Arab town in the Palestinian territories occupied in 1948, killing two Palestinians.

At the time, Hezbullah did not deny responsibility, but rather confirmed it and apologized for the unintended mistake.

Sayyed spoke about the matter in a speech he gave during the war and offered his condolences to the families of the martyrs.

I recall that incident to say that the party has the courage to admit the mistake, which lends credibility to its denial today of responsibility for the fall of a missile in the occupied Syrian town of Majdal Shams.
