Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | After Hezballah Kills a Dozen Children at a Park, Israel Launches Counterstrike Against Hezballah Commander in BeirutThey kill children, Israel kills the killer of children -- and Israel is the bad guy, of course. Israel responds to Golan Heights attack with retaliatory airstrike in Lebanese capital Quick Hit: Israel launched an airstrike on Beirut's southern suburbs Tuesday, targeting a Hezbollah commander accused of orchestrating a deadly rocket attack in the Golan Heights that resulted in the deaths of 12 children. Key Details: The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed in a statement that the airstrike targeted senior Hezbollah commander Fuad Shukr, also known as al-Hajj Mohsin, accused of orchestrating a rocket attack that killed 12 children in the Golan Heights, a disputed territory between Syria and Israel. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, vowed a "harsh" response to the attacks, with internal political pressure mounting following a civilian death in northern Israel due to a separate rocket attack on Tuesday. ... According to a report by The Guardian, Israel carried out an airstrike on the southern suburbs of Beirut on Tuesday, targeting a senior Hezbollah commander, Fuad Shukr, also known as al-Hajj Mohsin. Shukr was blamed for a rocket attack over the weekend that tragically killed 12 children. The airstrike caused a loud blast heard across the Lebanese capital, with smoke rising from the area known as a Hezbollah stronghold. In a statement, the IDF stated, "The IDF carried out a targeted strike in Beirut, on the commander responsible for the murder of the children in Majdal Shams and the killing of numerous additional Israeli civilians." While reports suggest Shurk was killed in the strike, it has yet to be independently confirmed. In response to the escalating situation, American diplomatic efforts have intensified to prevent the conflict from expanding.By which they mean: We're browbeating Israel while giving the green flag to our Terrorist Allies in Gaza and southern Lebanon. U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin emphasized the importance of resolving the conflict through diplomatic means, stating, "While we've seen a lot of activity on Israel's northern border, we remain concerned about the potential of this escalating into a full-blown fight. And I don't believe that a fight is inevitable."Catch covid you fat fuck. Meanwhile Kamala Harris refuses to condemn Hezballah. First, for background, when the antisemitic protest resulted in some of the more vile and disgusting Jew-hating imagery possible just down the street from the White House and the Congress, Harris waited an entire day to issue a carefully-worded statement decrying the antisemitism, but not calling for any criminal prosecution of those who engaged in the hate crimes. And this delayed statement came while her colleagues at DOJ and the District of Columbia were busy dropping the charges and releasing the perpetrators. So she has a track record of pausing before reacting...unless, of course, it's J6. In that scenario, there's no delay whatsoever. The Saturday attack that struck a children's park where a soccer game was underway, Friday night Washington time, was claimed immediately by Hezbollah. When it turned out it was all Druze kids that were blown up, Hezbollah began to walk back the claim of responsibility, but it was too late. The whole world knows it was Hezbollah, and the whole world knows it was an Iranian missile that they used. As of Monday morning, more than two days later, here is the official response of Border Czar Kamala Harris. [sound file of crickets] Nothing. Nada. Bupkis. Now perhaps Border Czar Harris is too busy chasing down pro-abortion voters to be bothered by an escalation of the war against Israel literally a day after she weighed in.Below: Paris learns that Diversity Is Our Strength.

Keep in mind the left wing view of this sort of conflict.
Since the Jihadis are the "oppressed" literally anything they do is justified - from blowing up school children to raping rave dancers. But since the Israelis are the "oppressors" literally nothing they do is justified so no matter how tightly Israel orchestrates a response it doesn't matter it is still wrong and unjustified.

I love the way the media excludes the past history of Fuad Shukr. If the name sounds familiar (probably doesn't) it's because he was a central figure in the bombing of the US Marine base in Beirut in 1983 that killed 241 US military personnel and wounded countless others.
How in the hell he was still walking around breathing for over 40 years post bombing is disgusting. Posted by: Orson at July 30, 2024 03:41 PM (dIske) 61

76 I think picking off commanders one at a time, while emotionally satisfying for the Israelis, is a bad policy that only guarantees a forever war where nothing ever changes. Commanders are a dime a dozen in the arab world, this guy goes down, 100 murderous idiots will be clamoring for his job by nightfall.
If you’re going to fight a war, then fight a war. Posted by: Tom Servo Unwise to do a two front war-Biden's Dog probably has better info than we do but the Israelis have not finished mopping up in Gaza and are still discovering (unfortunately bodies last week) where hostages are. Internal politics probably demands hostages be accounted for first along with the remnants of Ham Ass fighters before turning into a complicated invasion of S. Lebanon. But in the interim, killing commanders of Hezbollah causes disruption in the chain of command and newer commanders may not have the rapport nor experience that the older ones do. Useful if you are planning to invade in the near future. Posted by: whig at July 30, 2024 03:49 PM (qdbNv) 117
Keep in mind the left wing view of this sort of conflict. Since the Jihadis are the "oppressed" literally anything they do is justified - from blowing up school children to raping rave dancers. But since the Israelis are the "oppressors" literally nothing they do is justified so no matter how tightly Israel orchestrates a response it doesn't matter it is still wrong and unjustified.

Posted by: TheJamesMadison, riding the anarchy train with John Landis at July 30, 2024 03:44 PM (GBKbO) Yeah, I sadly agree, and I also think they know that while they could win a war with Hezballah, it would be far more devastating to Israel than the war with Hamas has been. Erdogan has been making noises about entering the war on Hezballahs side, and while no one believes that nonsense, it is true that Turkey has a huge number of sophisticated drones and other military assets (they’ve been supplying Ukraine) and it’s expected that they will make these available to Hezballah. The IDF would be facing a level of sophistication in weaponry they’ve never faced before.

Druze Beliefs
The Epistles of Wisdom is the foundational and central text of the Druze faith.[32] The Druze faith originated in Isma'ilism (a branch of Shia Islam),[33] and was influenced by Christianity,[34][35] Gnosticism, Neoplatonism,[34][35] Zoroastrianism,[36][37] Gandharan Buddhism, Manichaeism[38][39] Pythagoreanism,[40][41] and other philosophies and beliefs, creating a distinct and secretive theology based on an esoteric interpretation of scripture, which emphasizes the role of the mind and truthfulness.[20][41] Druze believe in theophany and reincarnation.[42] Back in the 80s when we were in Lebanon I got the idea they were more Christiany, but it seems they are a split off from Islam very early and are not prone to the same world view anymore.

A Syrian Antifaette in Portland whines:
Building right across the street from where some of my family lives was bombed by Israel in Beirut like 30 minutes ago. I actually lived in that building for some time. It’s gonna be impossible to know if everyone is ok for a bit. Fucking hell 💔💔💔💔💔 Fuck these colonizing genocidal bastards. Family is ok 🖤🙏 they happened to be in the village for a family gathering and miraculously no one was there when it happened. This is all still very heartbreaking. Beirut in its entirety is beautiful, but Dahieh neighborhood is probably my favorite place there. The kindest most welcoming people, the best food you could imagine. The most talented artists. The bravest children. While most of my family is Syrian, we have a lot of Palestinians and Lebanese in our family too. Due to the economic crisis in Lebanon, many parts of Lebanon have been a bit hostile towards Syrian and Palestinians, especially refugees. Never ever experienced that in Dahieh.

Hapsburg Empire implosion post WWI is a perfect example. They went to war in part to try to be cohesive in fighting the Russians and Serbs and instead collapsed into its component parts.
Posted by: whig at July 30, 2024 03:52 PM (qdbNv) That’s a very good point.

Posted by: Deplorable Jay Guevara ========== Yugoslavia indeed. It was an abortion from the start and put historical enemies in the same state. Much like Iraq and other British/French/Portuguese colonies where the ethnicities and the maps are not congruent. The collapse of the Ottoman Empire and its coercive forces led directly to much of today's problems in the Middle East where state boundaries put historical enemies in the same state. Westphalian politics made those borders sacrosanct and Wilsonian self determination language made those borders absurb. Posted by: whig at July 30, 2024 04:01 PM (qdbNv) 205

wikipedia:
The Druze, who call themselves al-Muwaḥḥidūn, are an Arab and Arabic-speaking esoteric ethnoreligious group from West Asia who adhere to the Druze faith, an Abrahamic, monotheistic, syncretic, and ethnic religion whose main tenets assert the unity of God, reincarnation, and the eternity of the soul. Syncretic means "blending multiple faiths." Most Druze religious practices are kept secret.[29] The Druze do not permit outsiders to convert to their religion. Marriage outside the Druze faith is rare and strongly discouraged. The Druze maintain Arabic language and culture as integral parts of their identity, and Arabic is their primary language.[30][31] ... The Druze faith originated in Isma'ilism (a branch of Shia Islam), and was influenced by Christianity, Gnosticism, Neoplatonism, Zoroastrianism, Gandharan Buddhism, Manichaeism Pythagoreanism, and other philosophies and beliefs, creating a distinct and secretive theology based on an esoteric interpretation of scripture...

Good luck with that wish cast, simps. Understand that the appellation "weird" that they are trying to tar Vance with is their way of seeking to put down hillbillies as being "others". Vance should embrace it and make it clear what is their game.

Building right across the street from where some of my family lives was bombed by Israel in Beirut like 30 minutes ago. I actually lived in that building for some time. It’s gonna be impossible to know if everyone is ok for a bit. Fucking hell 💔💔💔💔💔 Fuck these colonizing genocidal bastards.

Beirut in its entirety is beautiful, but Dahieh neighborhood is probably my favorite place there. The kindest most welcoming people, the best food you could imagine. The most talented artists.

Posted by: whig at July 30, 2024 04:14 PM (qdbNv) Sanctions are never going to beat a continental power overflowing with resources and land borders to all of Asia.

Taylor Swift 'in shock' after horrific UK stabbing, as police say 3rd child dies

Posted by: Oldcat FDR was a politician playing war and deemed himself a naval expert due to granddaddy and his brief stint as asst secretary to the Navy. He ordered the fleet sent to Pearl Harbor over the protests of Admiral Kimmel and staff. FDR and co thought the initial blow would be the Philippine Islands, not Pearl and by staging the fleet at Pearl, it would send a 'message' that the PI were not to be fooled with as succor would follow rapidly. It is an act of fate that had the Japanese not take out the oil farms at Pearl during the attack and that the carriers were off doing training. Posted by: whig at July 30, 2024 04:30 PM (qdbNv) 399

Fox News liberal Neil Cavuto attacks Senator Kennedy for calling Kamala Harris a "ding-dong," lecturing him that he needs to stop making fun of the "surging" Harris

Lot to like about living in the country but tradeoffs exist. Some people cannot slow down enough to match the pace of country life nor deal with everyone knowing everyone else's business. Plus, it can be difficult for outsiders to tolerate existing power and social structures and essentially start again.
Posted by: whig at July 30, 2024 04:26 PM (qdbNv) yeah. But my friend's dad was cool as hell, until someone did something stupid (keep in mind, my town did not have a murder for 30 or 40 years). he was not some het-up city cop bent on serving justice to the hicks. he was sick of NYC, and just wanted a paycheck for his family. To this day, he is one of the best men I have ever met. Posted by: Pug Mahon, Misunderstanding Comments for Humorous Effect at July 30, 2024 04:36 PM (Ad8y9) 427

Let us pray Maduro meets a Mussolini Ending.
Posted by: Thomas Bender I hope they shake out his pockets along with Chavez's daughter before they get rid of the trash. Chavez and Maduro have stolen billions from the people of Venezuela and both destroyed civil society and the economy in that country while looting it. Even the really old time Latin American caudillos did it better--they did not care much what the people did or said so long as you did not directly challenge the regime. They did far less damage than these modern Commie dictators who turn society and the economy into walking corpses. Jeanne Kirkpatrick was right back in the day. There are dictators and then there are murderous thug Commie dictators that despoil everything they touch. Posted by: whig at July 30, 2024 04:38 PM (qdbNv) 435

Hitler wasn't getting much out of the Tripartite Pact. Italy was using more German resources than they were helping and, after getting their asses kicked in Manchuria, Japan wasn't pressuring Russia and holding down the Siberian units so that Hitler could take Moscow.
Posted by: G'rump928(c) at July 30, 2024 04:30 PM (aD39U) The Japanese got their asses kicked an Nonmonhan in Mongolia in a border dispute. They pushed aside light forces and stayed there until the Russians brought in reinforcements, artillery, and tanks and just crushed them. Samurai swords and courage didn't compensate. After that they avoided getting involved with Russia. They should have done the same with the US because pretty much the same thing happened once the Americans got into production.

I liked the commenter who called Kamala a "hare-brained ninny".
I assume that "ninny" is a shortening of the word "nincompoop", but no doubt some idiot on the left will say that it has racial undertones.

The fat giggler always tries to pretend on the Fox set that he's impervious to his critics - but then proceeds to read people who write criticisms on the air and denigrates them while giggling like a ten-year-old. This is always a sure sign of a thin skinned, immature man - albeit one with a thinly encased overstuffed sausage interior. Posted by: Boswell at July 30, 2024 04:40 PM (K+UlC) 448
