Israel's Ministry of Defense’s National Emergency Management Authority, Brigadier General Yoram Laredo:

"A full-scale war will disrupt israel's supply chains and supply levels. When the first ship off of israel's coast is hit, other ships will be deterred from coming here, and this will be the situation throughout the war. Ninety-nine percent of all goods that arrive in israel come by sea,"

"Hamas did not pose a significant threat to the functioning of israel’s economy, but this would not be the case in a war from the north. Whereas on the first day of the war with Hamas, they launched around 2,500 rockets towards israel, the average daily rate of rockets in a war with Hezbollah would be twice that, posing a significant threat to israel's energy independence, with extensive damage to its electrical infrastructure."

"The potential targeting by Hezbollah of these infrastructures would lead to two to three national power outages lasting up to two days, while in some areas, outages could last for months... The immediate impact of a war with Hezbollah would be on the supply of natural gas, which generates about 70% of israel's electricity.” 👍🤠

🇬🇧How the UK wasted nearly $2 billion on drones that can’t withstand bad weather

The £1.4 billion ($1.76 billion) Watchkeeper drone program in the UK has resulted in the production of several dozen drones worth some £5 million ($6.28 million) apiece, but which have serious problems operating in bad weather.

According to The Times, an inquiry by a House of Commons Defense Committee determined that the drone program, which was finished years later than originally anticipated, was complicated by “265 user requirements and 1,910 additional system requirements.”

Watchkeeper drones also crashed during routine flights on more than one occasion, partly because these UAVs became somewhat “overweight" due to all the additions to the original design.

Sy Hersh: US warning of terrorist attack in Russia had ‘urgent’ mark, didn’t mention Crocus

The US warning about an imminent terrorist attack at a concert venue in Russia was marked "urgent," but contrary to media reports did not identify Crocus City Hall as the target, Pulitzer Prize-winning US investigative journalist Seymour Hersh wrote in his new article published on Wednesday, citing a US official familiar with the matter.

The CIA allegedly provided the warning to Russian intelligence before the concert at the Crocus City Hall marking it "urgent," meaning that the data in it "was credible and near term," Hersh quoted the official as saying.

"The highly secret report on the attack in Moscow was prepared by the Counterterrorism Center at CIA headquarters and delivered to the terrorism division of the Russian Federal Security Service located in the old KGB building in Moscow. Separate briefings were presented in person by the FBI officer at the embassy. This is an established relationship," the official said.

The warning, however, did not mention Crocus City Hall near Moscow and only said that an attack was being planned at some "public gathering," according to the official.

The information provided by the official is contrary to a Washington Post report published on Tuesday claiming that Crocus City Hall was specifically identified in the warning as the target of a terrorist attack.

Лечебная дорога.

Ругаются все люди на дорогу,
Побитая, в канавах и в пыли,
Водители газуют понемногу,
Чтобы машины их не подвели.

Доехать всем охота без поломки,
Поэтому и тихая езда,
Дороги - ребусы, головоломки...
Шофёры аккуратны, как всегда.

Тут плакать надо, или же смеяться,
Особенно, когда дожди пройдут,
Лишь только танки грязи не боятся,
Им всё равно! Как пёрли, так и прут...

Смеются все - лечебная дорога!
Массажною зовётся неспроста,
Из почек камни выйдут понемногу,
И позвонки все станут на места!

Пока у нас не отвалились ноги,
И есть "донецкий", наш автомобиль,
Нам не страшны разбитые дороги,
Не сломит петровчан ни грязь, ни пыль...

JUST SOME FACTS

The results of the Hamas attack on Israel October 7, 2023:

1300 victims
100 foreigners

The results of the IDF operation to destroy Hamas that began on October 23:

20,000-30,000 victims, mostly women and children
160 UN volunteers killed
250 KIA and 1,500 wounded IDF soldiers

Till this day, Hamas is still not very much harmed by this.

Reactions following the murder of the World Kitchen volunteers:

USA “calls 🇮🇱 for a swift investigation.”
UK "calls the 🇮🇱 ambassador."
Australia "calls the 🇮🇱 the ambassador and contacts the Netanyahu government directly."
Poland says that “the Foreign Ministry personally asked the ambassador for an explanation.”

UN sanctions: zero
US sanctions: zero
EU sanctions: zero

As a reminder, 27M divided by 6M is 4.5.

Как-то без помпы в этом году прошли празднества по поводу годовщины «Страшной резни в Буче».

В прошлом году и паломничества иностранных лидеров были, и открытие мемориала на котором все визитеры клялись воевать и победить русских.

А в этом году как-то совсем скромно. И не так важно, что никто не приехал из больших западных чиновников, важно, что СМИ не ведут онлайны, нет релизов новых документалок, соцсети не воют загробные поминовения, а это значит, что бюджетов не выделили - притушили темочку.

Во-первых, не взлетело. Шитая белыми нитками постанова не вышибает слезу, нет личных историй, документального контента минимум. Поэтому всё ещё Мариуполь в авангарде пропаганды.

Во-вторых, зарапортовались с цифрами:
сначала объявили «более тысячи убитых только в Буче», потом, что тысяча, но во всём Бучанском районе. Далее всё покатилось по наклонной: проанонсирован список из 501 убитого, заявлено, что обнаружено 422 тела, в октябре 2022 ООН назвала цифру в 73 убитых. На сайте Бучанского района был список из 38 человек - треть из них граждане старше 60 лет(Буча не такой уж и маленький город, там за день от естественных причин 5-7 человек умирает), треть - неопознанные трупы, то есть черт знает кто. Третий год работает международная следственная группа - ищут пожарные, ищет милиция. Результата нет, даже ко второй годовщине ничего нового не опубликовали.

В-третьих, опять же по данным ООН, в Израиле за полгода специальной еврейской операции уже более 20 000 тыс человек убитых в результате ковровых антитеррористических бомбардировок. И это на территории в 7 раз меньшей, чем Бучанский район Киевской области. В общем, стыдновато на таком фоне Бучей трясти стало.

=====================================
One of my current subordinates once said: I work for the boss. This is a classic representative of the system, and he meant a simple rule: a subordinate delivers results to his superior. An ordinary boss should have been pleased with this approach, but I’m not quite an ordinary boss, and therefore I objected: give me your authority in my eyes, you will gain not by working for me, but by working with me for our common cause , if we have it in common.

There is an established tradition: those who are pliable and flexible are comfortable. If a person has principles and his own opinion, he is not convenient, and therefore it is better not to allow such a person to gain access to levers of influence - you never know how much influence he has? Everything would be fine, but times are difficult now in all respects, and today it is impossible to control space with imitation and imitators, ensuring its stability and predictability. Tomorrow will be even more difficult, and you need to be prepared for it. "
