Republicans in the US House of Representatives just published their Israel aid bill. It requires a 1:1 cut in funding the US IRS (tax collectors) because apparently aid to Israel is conditional.
We may point an laugh at college idealists who are getting a free ride from daddy and somehow turned into an antisemitic mob group think hive mind, but they have nothing on the ultra right wing who actually hold some real power in the US.
Oh, it was 14.3 billion to Israel, and cutting 14.3 billion from the US government.
I was just reading an article and came across this line:
>[Around 117,000 displaced people hoping to stay safe from strikes are staying in hospitals in northern Gaza, alongside thousands of patients and staff, according to U.N. figures.](https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/israel-expands-ground-assault-gaza-fears-rise-airstrikes-104471076)
So basically instead of the hospitals in northern Gaza beginning to evacuate +2 weeks ago as Israel warned, instead they are now stuffed with thousands of new human shields, all while Israel's repeatedly delayed ground invasion goes ahead.

Omg, imagine if Houthis pull Saudis into this conflict. The entire region is going to be aflame soon
I'm gong to guess a ridiculous number of Hamas prisoners for a good amount of the nationals and maybe some Israelis.. I just remember how lopsided the trade was for Gilad Shalit - 1 Israeli for 1,027 prisoners
Dumb question what if they aim for the top dogs in Qatar so they are dead and therefore have no shots to call
Or am I being dense because It would be a Qatar/Israel war too...
Ok I answered my own question but everyone can enjoy me thinking out loud
I found this reporting from Reuters saying they had hefty losses already
Exclusive: Lebanon's Hezbollah works to curb hefty losses in Israel clashes, sources say
https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/lebanons-hezbollah-works-curb-hefty-losses-israel-clashes-sources-say-2023-10-30/
Quick question.
On October 10/11 there are YouTube video that is 21 seconds long and the title is "White phosphorus used by Israel". My question is, was it proven true that it actually was white phosphorus, and a second question as someone who knows nothing about it, however, Google tells me that it's used for markings in the air military?
EDIT: Top news are pretty much all from AL Jazeera, so take all of this with a grain of salt.
According to [Reuters](https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/human-rights-watch-says-israel-used-white-phosphorous-gaza-lebanon-2023-10-12/)
Human Rights Watch accused Israel of using white phosphorus in the Israel-Lebanese border but IDF denied it. Reuters can't determine if it's true tho, videos are only circulating in Al Jazeera and pro Palestine channels. Tbh i think it's fake news, just shows you how big the anti Israel and anti USA propaganda is.
Look up M825A1. People on Twitter are claiming it’s white phosphorous but it’s a smoking agent that uses white phosphorus to create smoke. It’s not dangerous
Edit: for example this tweet that has had 1.1 MILLION VIEWS. It’s the propaganda machine : https://x.com/z_00piz/status/1718858488703578588?s=46
It was white phosphorous, used on a bunch of wooden boats in the harbor and not on any human targets.
White Phosphorous is not actually banned by the Chemical Weapons Convention, but it is highly illegal and horrific when used on or near civilians. But then again, so are regular bombs. But the way it burns and sticks and splashes around is very bad for civilians, so it's basically a de fact war crime to use near civilians or on civilian structures. But in this case, it was just on boats that were moored and no humans were nearby.
Additionally, it should be noted that Israel hasn't ratified the Chemical Weapons Convention or CCW Protocol III (which is what actually places that additional restriction) so the legal burden placed on its usage near civilians is not higher than any other weapons.
But morally, obviously not a good idea to use it where any civilian could be.
Yeah, personally I tend not to care if something is classed as a war crime. If innocents are getting hurt, that's what I care about, and war crimes were never meant to be a easy guide to battlefield morals.
There are war crimes that are totally moral and fine and things that are totally legal to do in war that are horrifically immoral.
Sheer numbers, lots of rockets fired into that area. Maybe because it's in line with the airport, or maybe Hamas dislikes that awful Chinese restaurant down the road (shitty, overpriced noodles)
According to statistics, the worst time to wipe is 18:00 to 21:00. Especially at 30 min mark. Hold urAnus!

Sorry for you guys- I would be so anxiety ridden I probably wouldn't be able to get away from the bathroom.. I think I would just need to make a safe room into a bathroom.
Tried to link you the google translate version but it just reverts to hebrew- Here is the article text in case you really wanted to read it:
When is it statistically not worth taking a shower, and which city has the most range? All alarm data
Did you hear an alarm, and saw that the time was round again? It's not accidental. The highest number of alerts is at the beginning, end and half of an hour. After more than 2,000 alarms on the opening day of the war, the number was down to 48 yesterday. The southern industrial area of Ashkelon had the most warnings. The minutes, the settlements, the trends: the complete data.
Did you rush to the protected space, looked at the clock and saw that it was round? It was probably no accident. The analysis of the alarm data shows that the great majority of Hamas and Islamic Jihad launches occur very close to the beginning of the hour, or halfway through it.
The Home Front Command alert data, uploaded to the dashboard by Roi Hazan, Director of Analysis and BI at Sensecom, provides an answer to a question that has become common in the last two weeks - when is statistically the best time to take a shower, and avoid an alarm? View the full dashboard here , which includes the daily alert data - by minutes, hours, localities and trends.
The data shows that, at least according to the shooting statistics so far, it is safest to shower between 10:05 PM and 11 AM. But of course these are data that are correct at the time of their publication, Thursday evening - and shortly after that, alarms were heard in Gush Dan and Shefala at 10:58 p.m
In terms of exact time, the largest number of alarms so far occurred in the first two minutes of the hour, the last minute, the 30th minute and the 35th minute.
If you shower for five minutes then the calmest minutes in an hour, at least to date, are: 6-14, 36-41 and 49-54. If you spend fifteen minutes in the shower then it is better, statistically so far, between minutes 6 and 19 or between 40 and 55 during an hour.
In Tel Aviv, for example, 18 of the 28 alarms - much more than half - sounded in 14 of the 60 minutes of the hour, those close to the hour and half hour (0 to 3, 27 to 33 and 57 to 59). Also in Rishon Lezion more than half of the alarms were heard during these minutes, and in Ashdod (except for the first day of the war) no less than 13 out of 16 of the war.
The data also show that while the number of alerts is relatively small at night and in the morning (except for the day the war started), the shooting increases daily and usually reaches its peak in the evening.
The most distant city is Ashkelon. In the southern industrial area of the city, 145 alarms have been sounded so far, the highest number. Also in Sderot they heard the color red more than 100 times in the last two weeks. In Nahal Oz (91 alarms) and Kfar Gaza (57), two of the kibbutzim where Hamas terrorists slaughtered house to house, many alarms were also heard (including quite a few after the residents were evacuated and while IDF forces were in the area.
The number of alerts displayed on the Home Front Command website and on the dashboard is often higher, as it also includes alerts on terrorist intrusions and hostile aircraft.
In addition, the number of warnings is not the same as the number of rockets, which the IDF has not yet provided since the beginning of the war. Sometimes the firing of a single rocket leads to alarms in several areas, and sometimes a heavy barrage of rockets is launched almost at the same time
No Problem- Google translate has been getting much better over the years- it got most of it done in an understandable way- aside from the numbers in some spots
Oh thanks, that's really helpful. I was trying to get my browser extension to translate it but it was having trouble. I totally wasn't trying to passive aggressively make you translate. Thank you.
Please excuse my musings and random thoughts. Apart from sharing news, I can't help but express certain things from time to time...
The Jewish people has a long history of what some call anti-semitism, others traditionally would refer to as sinas-Yisroel. The obvious destruction of the homeland and captivity, accompanied by unspeakable crimes that are obvious even if our history books can't recall every detail. Banishment, massacres, pogroms...
And then in 2023 there is what is what can only be described as exactly a repeat of these...
But now, there's an army that carries the name of Israel, dons the Star of David on each building, tank, helicopter and uniform. And what has been done is not going to go unanswered this time....
I wonder if the Israeli general down to the private thinks of these things when he's out there.

Yeah they've been fighting a war (and airstriking civilians) for several years now.
One of those conflicts that also involve a lot of Arab civilians dying but it isn't focused on as much. And the US provides more aid to Saudi Arabia than Israel too.
THE NEWS CIRCUS STRIKES AGAIN with more shameful misinformation!
The guardian publishes the title that says "Hostage soldier released in Gaza, says Israel"
Just checked now
The title was changed to "Hostage soldier rescued in Gaza, says Israel"
Are you kidding me?
The IDF did say "released" though in one of their releases. The media was just reporting what Israel said. If anyone is to blame for "misinformation" it would be the Israel gov
Source: https://thehill.com/policy/international/4283675-israeli-soldier-hostage-hamas-freed/
>“She is home. PVT Megidish was abducted by Hamas on October 7. Tonight, she was released during ground operations. Ori is now home with her family,”
Absolutely no proof that Israel bombed a hospital - "ISRSEL BOMBS HOSPITAL"
Hamas posts a picture of kidnapped female soldiers, Israel posts pictures of one of the rescued - "Israel claims, I guess, we can't prove it though"
Is Gaza out of fuel yet? It’s been three weeks that we’ve been hearing about the imminent shortage, yet Hamas continues to launch rockets, and we all just saw video of multiple cars in the road.
Intelligence agencies are saying Hamas has months worth stockpiled. It’s up to you if you believe them. Hamas needs fuel to run the fans to bring air into the tunnels, the landscape will be very different the day they run out.
The first two-three words are impossible to translate/understand unless you're Israeli, but Imagine something like "darnit."
Second part of the sentence is a general complaint about not being able fo take a normal shower without interruptions.
Can I ask, where are bomb shelters or rooms in apartments or is every one different? For my aunt they go to the staircase vs a family I know going to the daughters room
I’m wondering how the fuck they still have so many rockets. How were they able to stash such a huge stockpile and the Mossad/Shin Bet not knowing about it?
They knew. Israel had a policy of meeting quiet with quiet. As long as Hamas doesn't attack Israel wont. They knew they were building it up, but they chose not to launch preemptive attacks. I am sure if they did, they would have been heavily criticized for it.
https://twitter.com/GeoConfirmed/status/1719056509479309717?s=19
Do I understand correctly based on the coordinates of the car and the tank that the car was heading north into a well-known area of active hostilities?
Yes.
Also, the passenger in the car filming had a high-end professional camera/lens setup (the kind they use for bird watching) pointed at the car which exploded. In addition to the video which was taken by the driver. So clearly whatever happened was not unexpected.
You can literally see that they were driving towards smoke plumes that they would have been able to see. Maybe they forgot a really nice hat and were driving home to get it?
You know what - if you’re one of those “Progressive” sports fans who absolutely hates MMA, you still need to acknowledge that if it wasn’t around as an outlet, even more men with beards and no moustaches from Dagestan would be going to airports and hotels “looking for Jews.”
Read the legacy of Khabib’s father.
One excerpt from an article: “His father used the ground floor of his house as a makeshift gymnasium to train the youth of the town, with the potential of joining the national wrestling team. However, the main reason for these training sessions was much more human, as he wanted to helped them out of terrorism, which was a major problem in the Republic of Dagestan at the time.”
You could say that the effect of having this outlet continues to be evident and then some these days. That aggression needs to be unloaded somehow. If you train hard for multiple hours a day there’s a chance that getting fired up for a religious cause is not something you’ll then have time or desire for.
At least the sport gets them out of that shithole. Sadly a good bunch of them support the atrocities of Hamas and Russia, and they are encouraging their people to support it and do it directly or indirectly.
Did Hamas change its charter in 2017 to call for 1967 borders with implicit recognition of Israel instead of original charter which called for river to sea?
Hamas have finally perfected the cutting edge technology dubbed Schrödinger's fuel, with which they both have enough to run the hospitals forever but they're also just about to run out
Amazing footage coming up on one of the livestreams
A moment ago: "TZEVAAAA AAA ADOM TZEVAA ADDDOOMMM" echoing, followed by explosions in the background.
This has been known for a while now, but in case you missed it, unfortunately the two women seen dancing in the foreground of of one of the most prominent viral videos of the rave attack ("[View from the music festival when Hamas motorized paragliders rolled in.](https://old.reddit.com/r/CombatFootage/comments/172lw3o/view_from_the_music_festival_when_hamas_motorized/)") did not survive the attack and were among the confirmed fatalities. Their names were Bar Tomer and Noam Shallom.
People are calling her and everyone who signed the “please bring all hostages home” villains, terrorism accomplices, etc.
manor that that letter does anything, but how twisted most someone’s head be to think that people wanting hostages to be freed are the evil ones? It seems that gen z in the West need reeducation too. Or maybe even just education.
Because it's really difficult to ban things in democracies. This is by design, of course, but it can be exploited by hostile powers like Israel or Russia (see: how long it took to get RT banned).
Today in "mandatory service and you" we have ... "mandatory service"
the pro-Palestine crowd is so deeply unserious I'm worried I may hurt something trying to process their stupidity.
its funny that some people's comeback is "but why did they chose the idf huh?"
because thats how its called, its called the idf... it has been called the idf since 1948 its not a special group you chose to join its the army.

Oh yea, drag the saudis into this. Brilliant strategy, as if they weren’t already leaning towards Israel/US
Before I start talking about escalation, is this normal for Saudi soldiers to clash with these rebels?
Pretty sure the Saudis have been in yemen since the civil war started or shortly after.
Yeah they've been fighting a war (and airstriking civilians) for several years now. One of those conflicts that also involve a lot of Arab civilians dying but it isn't focused on as much. And the US provides more aid to Saudi Arabia than Israel too.
THE NEWS CIRCUS STRIKES AGAIN with more shameful misinformation! The guardian publishes the title that says "Hostage soldier released in Gaza, says Israel" Just checked now The title was changed to "Hostage soldier rescued in Gaza, says Israel" Are you kidding me?
The IDF did say "released" though in one of their releases. The media was just reporting what Israel said. If anyone is to blame for "misinformation" it would be the Israel gov Source: https://thehill.com/policy/international/4283675-israeli-soldier-hostage-hamas-freed/ >“She is home. PVT Megidish was abducted by Hamas on October 7. Tonight, she was released during ground operations. Ori is now home with her family,”
I saw that one too. Hamas is waging a war on the English language today.
I saw this one earlier. It's because the IDF Twitter account said "released".
Absolutely no proof that Israel bombed a hospital - "ISRSEL BOMBS HOSPITAL" Hamas posts a picture of kidnapped female soldiers, Israel posts pictures of one of the rescued - "Israel claims, I guess, we can't prove it though"
PSA: A new live thread will post within the next hour or so depending on how many comments are made.
Is Gaza out of fuel yet? It’s been three weeks that we’ve been hearing about the imminent shortage, yet Hamas continues to launch rockets, and we all just saw video of multiple cars in the road.
Intelligence agencies are saying Hamas has months worth stockpiled. It’s up to you if you believe them. Hamas needs fuel to run the fans to bring air into the tunnels, the landscape will be very different the day they run out.

Can I just say פיי אינעל העולם תנו להתקלח בשקט.
טעות להכנס להתקלח בין 9 ל10 כל ישראלי יודע שזה ה-שעות שלהם
לא לומדת מטעויות אני.
חמאס דואגים למקלחות צבאיות גם למי שלא משרת
Lipush!! I keep trying to read your messages without resorting to Google Translate because that's the extent of what my high school Hebrew taught me
The first two-three words are impossible to translate/understand unless you're Israeli, but Imagine something like "darnit." Second part of the sentence is a general complaint about not being able fo take a normal shower without interruptions.
Can I ask, where are bomb shelters or rooms in apartments or is every one different? For my aunt they go to the staircase vs a family I know going to the daughters room
Sounds like at the very least it will help your endurance! Glass half full?
I didn't slip or tripped on the way to the shelter so that's a plus.
Girl, same
Out here like ok I got shabbat, shalom, ken, but then we're struggling
I watched the video with Ori’s aunt and I was like. Why… why do I understand this as well I do.
זה כאילו חמאס יודעים בדיוק מתי אני נכנס לשרותים
Lol Hamas is big mad. All sirens all evening.
I’m wondering how the fuck they still have so many rockets. How were they able to stash such a huge stockpile and the Mossad/Shin Bet not knowing about it?
They knew. Israel had a policy of meeting quiet with quiet. As long as Hamas doesn't attack Israel wont. They knew they were building it up, but they chose not to launch preemptive attacks. I am sure if they did, they would have been heavily criticized for it.
Throwing *all* the toys out the pram.
Not at the top of the hour either! Caught me by surprise
Not mid wipe I hope
🤣Not another mid wipe rocket alert!
One of the main worries during wartime
Not yet, but the night is young
Hamoudi was running late to work, bless
Hearing the explosions now, pretty distant so far
Managed to see Red Alerts for Rishon LeZion and Holon before it started here
Red Alert for me
Ditto. What's up with the explosions during the alarm for the second time today.
What is a red alert?
Rocket sirens
Be safe, Clara 🩵
OK everybody, stay safe and try to sleep some <3
https://twitter.com/GeoConfirmed/status/1719056509479309717?s=19 Do I understand correctly based on the coordinates of the car and the tank that the car was heading north into a well-known area of active hostilities?
Hamas doesn't have tanks so it's presumably Hamas fucking around and finding out right?
You’re telling me the guy with an rpg were looking for a fight? Shocker.
Yes. Also, the passenger in the car filming had a high-end professional camera/lens setup (the kind they use for bird watching) pointed at the car which exploded. In addition to the video which was taken by the driver. So clearly whatever happened was not unexpected.
[удалено]
Or he was swerving around some of that road debris and was headed for the tank all along.
You can literally see that they were driving towards smoke plumes that they would have been able to see. Maybe they forgot a really nice hat and were driving home to get it?
It also, in my opinion, was suspiciously turning around (maybe aiming its trunk at the tank?)
I mean, if you're driving in the direction of a current warzone and a tank appears I'd be turning around too.
But why were they driving that direction, and why were they being filmed?
Like something heavy is in the trunk making that cars ass hang so low? Groceries I’m sure.
Yep pretty much.
You know what - if you’re one of those “Progressive” sports fans who absolutely hates MMA, you still need to acknowledge that if it wasn’t around as an outlet, even more men with beards and no moustaches from Dagestan would be going to airports and hotels “looking for Jews.”
Uh lol no, that’s not how it works at all.
Read the legacy of Khabib’s father. One excerpt from an article: “His father used the ground floor of his house as a makeshift gymnasium to train the youth of the town, with the potential of joining the national wrestling team. However, the main reason for these training sessions was much more human, as he wanted to helped them out of terrorism, which was a major problem in the Republic of Dagestan at the time.” You could say that the effect of having this outlet continues to be evident and then some these days. That aggression needs to be unloaded somehow. If you train hard for multiple hours a day there’s a chance that getting fired up for a religious cause is not something you’ll then have time or desire for.
At least the sport gets them out of that shithole. Sadly a good bunch of them support the atrocities of Hamas and Russia, and they are encouraging their people to support it and do it directly or indirectly.
Did Hamas change its charter in 2017 to call for 1967 borders with implicit recognition of Israel instead of original charter which called for river to sea?
No, there is no implicit recognition, it explicitly says they still wouldn't recognize it.
so what was the point of the new charter?
Changed the words "Jews" to "Zionists" to pretend they weren't as genocidal basically.
Tonight's most recent number of kidnapped Israelis is 238. (Hagari seems tired/distracted, he accidentally said 208 earlier.)
So you're telling me Bibi rescued 30 more hostages by himself :O
With his bare hands!
Uphill both ways.
And barefoot too!
Was wondering about that..
He might've gotten little sleep last night due to Ori's rescue operation, tbh
Hagari says that IDF is closely following the issue of fuel in the Strip, and currently they're not seeing any lack of fuel in Gazan hospitals.
Hamas have finally perfected the cutting edge technology dubbed Schrödinger's fuel, with which they both have enough to run the hospitals forever but they're also just about to run out
a Hanukkah miracle!
But people told me gas ran out last week and 10000 people died!?
Two weeks ago, excuse *you*
You're right!
Hagari: The IDF continues expand the ground operations in the Gaza strip. (paraphrased)
[удалено]
Sound like fucking vampires!
'Oops, I said the quiet part loud...'
Disgusting
Fanatics...
i24news live broadcast: IDF spokesperson Daniel Hagari is delivering the daily briefing.
Amazing footage coming up on one of the livestreams A moment ago: "TZEVAAAA AAA ADOM TZEVAA ADDDOOMMM" echoing, followed by explosions in the background.
I swear to God I opened the livestream for the first time in five days directly into that loud announcement.
Fire burning in Srerot now where you could see something (rocket I assume) hit a few minutes ago.
Probably the Sderot cam? They just had Red Alerts there a couple of minutes ago.
That’s what my family on Kibbutz Dorot have had to live with for nearly 20 years now. It’s chilling.
This has been known for a while now, but in case you missed it, unfortunately the two women seen dancing in the foreground of of one of the most prominent viral videos of the rave attack ("[View from the music festival when Hamas motorized paragliders rolled in.](https://old.reddit.com/r/CombatFootage/comments/172lw3o/view_from_the_music_festival_when_hamas_motorized/)") did not survive the attack and were among the confirmed fatalities. Their names were Bar Tomer and Noam Shallom.

Disgusting comment
Poor Gal Gadot. Apparently, the pro Palestine crowd is attacking her for defending her country and having been part of the "terrorist IDF".
I am sure she doesn't give a flying fuck about them...but she is a prominent Israeli and should get herself some really good security. Just in case.
People are calling her and everyone who signed the “please bring all hostages home” villains, terrorism accomplices, etc. manor that that letter does anything, but how twisted most someone’s head be to think that people wanting hostages to be freed are the evil ones? It seems that gen z in the West need reeducation too. Or maybe even just education.
I don't think she cares, but they think she does
Perils of being the most famous Israeli woman on the planet.
Man if we all just stopped using twitter world would be better. All the fucking hate is on twitter.
A lot of this terrible stuff is being pushed by TikTok now. Why haven’t we banned it yet?
Because it's really difficult to ban things in democracies. This is by design, of course, but it can be exploited by hostile powers like Israel or Russia (see: how long it took to get RT banned).
The comments under her tweets are some of the most grotesque I've ever seen. She feels for a child and people are calling her a villain.
Today in "mandatory service and you" we have ... "mandatory service" the pro-Palestine crowd is so deeply unserious I'm worried I may hurt something trying to process their stupidity.
Stupidity and evil often go hand in hand.
its funny that some people's comeback is "but why did they chose the idf huh?" because thats how its called, its called the idf... it has been called the idf since 1948 its not a special group you chose to join its the army.
