In case you haven’t noticed, Israel seems to be at war with pretty much fucking everybody right now and they show little sign of slowing down anytime in the near future. In fact, if anything, the Netanyahu regime seems to be accelerating the violence to downright dizzying heights of global sadism with every new corner of the map he bombs.

What began in October of 2023 as a gruesome revenge kick in the Gaza Strip over a Hamas attack that the Nakba made a forgone conclusion has rapidly evolved into a twenty-month rampage against everyone and everything that got in Bibi’s way to the maternity ward. Now, nearly 35,000 separate acts of IDF facilitated terrorism have scarred the face of seven separate sovereign nations and counting so far.

Israel currently occupies large portions of Southern Lebanon which the invaders back in Tel Aviv are pushing to forcibly depopulate and turn into a US Military controlled “Trump Zone” complete with a new phalanx of permanent Israeli bases. Meanwhile, just north in Syria, where an Al-Qaeda affiliated government now clings to power largely as a result of Israeli destabilization, IDF forces are pushing deeper and deeper into the long-embattled nation’s territory while launching airstrikes on the capitol of Damascus and openly contemplating mandating the forced demilitarization of the entire country.

In Yemen, where the Houthi rebels have shown the region what real solidarity looks like by cutting off Israeli access to the Red Sea, Bibi has bombed power plants, oil refineries, neighborhoods and other forms of civilian infrastructure, assassinating the nation’s prime minister Ahmed al-Rahawi and murdering 25 journalists from the nation’s two most prominent newspapers in the process. In Doha, the capitol of the Kingdom of Qatar, Israeli airstrikes targeted a gathering of Hamas diplomats meeting to discuss the Trump regime’s latest peace proposal.

This was a remarkably similar set-up to the one that kicked off Israel and America’s 12-Day War on Iran, when scores of senior Iranian military officials were lured into a false sense of security by Washington diplomacy only to be obliterated at the peace table. And as if bombing potential peacemakers weren’t enough, Israel has even used its bloodthirsty military to target unarmed international activists, launching incendiary drone strikes on boats in the waters off the coast of Tunisia that are being used by the Global Sumud Flotilla to bring aid to starving Gazans.

Amazingly, none of this mayhem has done........
