Impressive: moment of impact of a Burkan IRAM rocket on Shlomi
📑 US mainstream media is claiming that Israel was planning a pre-emptive attack on Lebanon on 11-October, to destroy whatever they could of Hezbullah in order to foil an imminent ground invasion by the Ridwan forces of the Galilee.

However the US president personally contacted Israeli prime minister and forced him to step aside and don't do this mistake.

Netanyahu and Gallant debated for 6 hours, then decided to call it off, despite Gallant's insistence.

This report was officially denied tonight by Netanyahu, who claimed he's been focused on Gaza since day one, and eye a war only there now.

— To add to this report, October 11th is also the day we saw an absolutely massive Red Alert in the north, which turned out to be a false alarm according to Israel.

Could be coincidence, or it could've perhaps been a simulation by the IDF to see how fast they could get everyone into bunkers in case of confrontation with Hezbollah.

— Just a thought, but, this could totally be an election stunt for Biden

"Look people, he helped avert a regional war. Foreign policy miracle!"

Similar to how they used the Iran nuclear deal to win Obama his second term.

— On the other hand, if it is indeed true, one has to wonder why Israel would've considered a pre-emptive strike on Hezbollah at that specific moment.

Honestly, it shows to me they were desperate and panicking. On October 11th, Hamas fighters were still holding onto their positions inside Israeli settlements, and had not yet been expelled into Gaza.

Perhaps if Hezbollah had struck at the same time, Israel would've been overwhelmed, since they couldn't have handled two fronts simultaneously, especially since Hamas was still fresh.

I believe if there were to be war with Hezbollah, it would have been much more favourable earlier rather than now, considering that Hamas is now somewhat exhausted, but I'm no military tactician.

Anyway, we'll see what happens, I'm still positive in all this, and it's difficult to make decisions in the heat of the moment. The resistance did what they could, and we have to focus on what's next.

Reportedly, the Netherlands, Norway and Denmark will only send liaison officers to the U.S. command center in Bahrain to assist in 'coordination efforts'.

This comes after Italy, Spain and France already announced they will not be taking part in the US-led naval coalition.

🇾🇪/🇺🇳 NEW: After 9 years, all factions in the Yemeni civil war have reached an agreement to work towards a permanent settlement to end the conflict - UN

According to Hans Grundberg, special UN rapporteur to Yemen, the warring factions including the Houthis & the internationally recognized Yemeni govt. have agreed on basic steps towards peace, including:

1. A permanent nationwide ceasefire.
2. The improvement of basic living conditions throughout the country.
3. Resumption of oil exports.
4. Opening the roads in Taiz & easing the restrictions on Sana'a and Hudaydah ports.
5. An inclusive political process under UN supervision.

According to sources, negotiations regarding the political future of Yemen will begin in 2024, with a real possibility being the restoration of the country to its pre-1990 borders, which would mean the Houthis gaining legitimate rule over much of Western Yemen, including the nation's capital, Sana'a.

🇾🇪/🇺🇳 UN press release regarding the roadmap for peace in Yemen:

'The UN roadmap will include, among other elements, the parties’ commitment to implement a nationwide ceasefire, pay all public sector salaries, resume oil exports, open roads in Taiz and other parts of Yemen, and further ease restrictions on Sana’a Airport and the Hudaydah port.

The roadmap will also establish implementation mechanisms and prepare for a Yemeni-owned political process under UN supervision.'

This is super important.

Ansarullah (the Houthis) will now finally have their own internationally recognized state in the near future.

An Iranian-backed Pro-Resistance Axis state controling the Bab Al-Mandab and Red Sea for the next few decades is a huge blow to the US-Zionist project in the region.

Not to mention that Yemen will be able to receive Iranian arms shipments without any restrictions or foreign controls, considering they'll be recognized as a legitimate nation by the UN.
ISIS - Failed
Syrian Revolution - Failed
Kurdish Independence - Failed
War against the Taliban - Failed
War against the Houthis - Failed
Regime change in Iran - Failed
Occupation of Palestine - Failing

The US project for the Middle East is failing. It's only a matter of time before they will be forced to pack their bags and leave.
