Israel fabricated the Holocaust narrative, and those who challenge it are accused of antisemitism and prosecuted. He further alleged Israel enlisted "unscrupulous" directors to film October 7 documentation to control the historical record.

I’m now hearing what appears to be non stop interceptions, no sirens can be heard, I’m assuming it’s Hezbollahs rocket attacks in southern Lebanon towards IDF positions. Will know soon

I am 8 KM from Lebanons border today.

IDF: 188th Brigade forces in southern Gaza identified a Hamas operative who crossed the yellow line and posed an immediate threat. The Air Force struck and eliminated him. The operative took part in the October 7 massacre and had recently been planning attacks on IDF troops. Southern Command forces remain deployed per the ceasefire agreement.

A drone fired toward Israeli forces in southern Lebanon was intercepted this morning. No alert was triggered, consistent with IDF policy.

Israel's Energy Minister Eli Cohen: The Islamic Republic's leader is in hiding and under pressure. A Hormuz blockade would push Iran's economy toward collapse. If Tehran restarts its nuclear program, Israel will strike.

It’s been 80 days since Iran has shut down the internet in the country.

Absolute batshi* crazy.

Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich:

I have been informed that the prosecutor of the antisemitic court has submitted a request for a fundamental international arrest warrant against me.

This request joins the unprecedented arrest warrants issued against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.

This clumsy attempt to force upon us a policy of security suicide through sanctions and arrest warrants will not succeed.

As a sovereign and independent state, we will not accept hypocritical dictates from biased bodies that repeatedly stand against the State of Israel, against our biblical, historical, and legal rights in our homeland, and against our right and duty to self-defense and security.

Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich: “Issuing international arrest warrants against the prime minister, defense minister and finance minister is a declaration of war.

The Palestinian Authority opened this war and it will receive war in return.

I promise all our enemies: this is only the beginning.”

Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich:

I say here unequivocally: if Hezbollah does not surrender, we will take more and more territory from them.
