🚨ECONOMIC COLLAPSE: UP TO 60,000 ISRAELI BUSINESSES TO CLOSE IN 2024

The Israel-based information company CofaceBDI predicts that up to 60,000 businesses will be forced to close down in 2024. 46,000 businesses have already closed since October 7th.

Israel’s economy is buckling after almost a year of genocidal slaughter in Gaza, with Hamas still not defeated.

Added pressure from Hezbollah’s strikes making northern Israel a ghost town, Iran’s looming retaliation for the assassination of Ismail Haniyeh, and Yemen’s attacks on Israeli-linked shipping in the Red Sea has been a recipe for disaster for the Israeli economy.

Was this little girl Hamas as well?

Israel, the US, UK and European Union countries have turned Gaza into the world’s largest children’s graveyard through wanton mass murder.

Whether it’s Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria or the many other countries targeted by the US, UK, EU and its allies, there is one common theme:

Wherever they have gone, they have brought unparalleled levels of destruction, tragedy, and death

Israel’s Lt. Col. Yoel Betalbi threatens Palestinians living in Israel by saying simply waving a Palestinian flag inside Israel, or condemning Israel will result in a prison sentence and exile, or getting transferred to the ruins of Gaza or the West Bank.

The apartheid state backed by the US, UK and EU will punish Palestinians for waving the flag of their national identity, resisting occupation, and speaking out against the ethnic cleansing of their own people.

🚨AFSHIN RATTANSI CHALLENGES FORMER ISRAELI DEPUTY FOREIGN MINISTER:

'If Hezbollah failed, why would you need to put reporting restrictions? Surely you should be crowing about it and saying how successful Israel was, not banning all Israeli media from covering it unless you're trying to cover something up and Mossad Unit 8200 and Shin Bet were actually hit hard.'

On Monday's Going Underground, Afshin Rattansi challenges former Israeli Ambassador to the USA and former Israeli Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Ayalon on Hezbollah's retaliation strikes, the Gaza genocide, and looming regional war with Iran

Israel’s Haaretz reports that US mediators have completely lost faith that Benjamin Netanyahu is negotiating in good faith for a ceasefire in Gaza.

While an average citizen watching the horror unfolding in Gaza can see Netanyahu wants the genocide to continue, US mediators apparently have only just realised this.

Predictably, the Biden administration will react to this not by pressuring Netanyahu by halting arms supplies, but will continue ramping them up ahead of a regional war with Iran, and for the slaughter in Gaza to continue.

The Biden Administration is not stupid, they understand Netanyahu’s ‘negotiations’ are nothing but political theatre and are in lockstep with the genocidal Israeli war machine.

On this day in 1955, American investigative journalist Gary Webb was born.

In 1996, he exposed how the CIA hired drug traffickers to sell massive amounts of crack cocaine in the US to fund the Contra death squads in Nicaragua, who were engaged in CIA-backed regime change operations against the Sandinista revolutionaries.

The crack cocaine epidemic disproportionately ravaged African-American communities, the lives of many families ruined for the pursuit of US imperial interests.

Gary Webb was smeared by the mainstream media and vilified. In 2004 he was found with 2 bullet wounds in his head, and his death was swiftly ruled a suicide. Many suspect he was murdered for exposing the crimes of the CIA.
