Israel changes the map in wartime

The modern State of Israel turned 78 years old yesterday. And today, we had more ballistic missile attacks shot from the Houthis in Yemen today in the morning and afternoon. Because of course.

Normally those missiles from Yemen don’t make it up to the north of Israel, but today they did. They were shot down by Israel’s air defense systems.

Shrapnel from the Houthi missile did do some damage. A kindergarten was reportedly damaged. Fortunately, no one was reported killed or injured.

Meanwhile, despite recent protests to the contrary, Israel is doing what can be done to help protect the Druze of Syria from the HTS terrorist organization that took power in that country a few months ago. Consider the recent message that Israel sent to the “interim President” of Syria, Mr. Sharaa (formerly known by his nom de guerre Mr. Golani or Julaani), by bombing near his presidential palace in Damascus. That was a message to tell him to leave the Druze of Syria alone. And that is because Mr. Shara’s HTS terrorists have been threatening and even attacking members of the Syrian Druze community with increased frequency since HTS took over the reins of power in Syria just some months ago / near the end of 2024.

As bad as it seems, if you think about how things have actually changed since Oct. 7, 2023, Israel has reshaped the map in positive ways. And Israel is apparently not done changing things yet.

Israel neutered Hezbollah. Israel has taken over the most important strategic posts at the top of the Hermon mountain range after the old Syrian army abandoned them. Israel has crushed Hamas and reduced them to a far more depleted terror organization. Israel has destroyed significant amounts of the Houthis’ arsenal in Yemen. And Israel has neutralized Iran’s most aggressive postures. All in all, despite all the insane things our enemies keep doing to harm us … Israel keeps defending its people, its nation and its land, and Israel keeps showing its enemies the cost of the mistakes they keep making against Israel.

Israel is a tiny nation, the smallest in the region, apart from Lebanon. And Israel has no beef with the Lebanese people. It’s literally invaders (Sunni Muslim Palestinians and Shi’a Muslim Iranian backed Hezbollah) that cause all the troubles in Lebanon and between Lebanon and Israel. Every Lebanese person I know, loves Israel and can’t stand the idiots ruining their country since so many years.

Indeed, we have full equal rights here for all people in Israel. And in Palestinian controlled lands, they have the exact opposite. LGBTQ+ … women … anyone of a different race or religion or political ideology … routinely gets oppressed, arrested, tortured, disappeared, even killed by the terror organizations of the PLO, Hamas, the PIJ, etc. It’s crazy. And we all know why (they’re run by death cults).

And we know why useful idiots in the West fall for their propaganda that Israelis are the big, rich, strong, harmful, evil oppressors and Palestinians are the small, poor, weak, harmless, good victims. Huge money from Qatar and Iran and propaganda through education that they pay for in the US and Europe, and through TV networks like Al Jazeera, have totally brainwashed the useful idiots for decades.

And originally this was the KGB’s plan all along back in the 1960s, for the Soviet Union to disrupt the middle east so that they could get a share of it. That’s why they funded/created the PLO in the early 1960s. And yeah, lots of people hate to say it or admit it … religion has a lot to do with this whole conflict.

If it weren’t for the fact that Israel is mostly Jewish … if all Israelis suddenly became Muslim … the Palestinians would not have any reason to fight Israel. That’s because the Palestinian leaders (currently the PA and Hamas) just hate the fact that there are Jews who have self-determination, living in the ancestral homeland of the Jewish people. And they hate the fact that Israel allows Jews, Muslims, Christians and everyone else as well, to live here in peace with equal rights.

The path to more victory and success for Israel is clear: Keep being an open society with equal rights for all citizens and guests. Keep building bridges with friends around the world, and with people who may not yet be Israel’s friends, yet may be Israel’s friends one day (and yes, this includes the Palestinians who wish for peace rather than conflict). Keep working to improve conditions for all people in Israel. And keep defending the values that make the nation of Israel good and strong.
