Israeli troops massed on Gaza Border, poised for invasion ~ link ~ Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak said Israel’s bombardment of Gaza on Wednesday mark only the beginning of military operations, just hours after Israeli President Shimon Peres called President Obama to update him on the airstrikes.
Israel’s Meretz Party leader Zahava Galon said the program of airstrikes and assassinations in Gaza will not be productive. “The only way to bring peace and quiet in the long-term to the
innocent residents of Sderot and communities in Gaza is through the
ceasefire agreement and not high profile assassinations,” Gal-on said.

Israel launches fresh airstrikes on northern Gaza Strip ~ link ~ Israeli forces have
launched a fresh airstrike on the northern Gaza Strip as Tel Aviv
intensifies its attacks on the blockaded Palestinian enclave.
The strike occurred late on Wednesday night, shortly after the military wing of Hamas, the Ezzedine al-Qassam Brigades, said they had fired a homemade missile into Tel Aviv.
At least ten Palestinians, including senior Hamas commander Ahmed al-Ja’bari, were killed in Israeli airstrikes on the besieged Gaza Strip on Wednesday.
Ja’bari - the most senior Hamas official to be killed since Israel’s invasion of Gaza in late 2008 - died after the car he was traveling in was hit by an Israeli airstrike in Gaza City.
Two children and a woman are also among the victims of Israel’s deadly raids, which the Islamic Jihad Movement in Palestine described as a declaration of war.
The Ezzedine al-Qassam Brigades also stated that Israel opened gates of hell for itself by killing Ja’bari.
Tel Aviv's attacks drew a fiery response from Palestinian resistance movements, who fired dozens of rockets at Israeli settlements in Negev, leaving several Israelis injured.
Hamas also announced that it has hit Tel Aviv with a homemade rocket, prompting Israelis to declare a state of alert.
Rockets fired from Gaza also hit an area near Israel's Dimona nuclear facility. It is the first time that Palestinian rockets have reached the area.
Israeli drones and warplanes continue to target the long-blockaded Gaza Strip, while an Israeli official has said that Ja’bari's assassination was not the end of Tel Aviv's assault on the coastal sliver and that more strikes would follow.

As soon as the first reports appeared on popular microblogging site Twitter, Tel Aviv began trending worldwide.
The the Ezzedine al-Qassam Brigades tweeted the claim, but so far, no confirmation is available.
Meanwhile, Israeli Defense Forces spokesperson Avital Leibovich took to her Twitter account to slam the claim as propaganda. She said "Clarification: no rockets were fired toTel Aviv. The rumors are part of Hamas propaganda."

Palestinians call on UN Security Council to stop Israeli aggression ~ link ~ On Wednesday, the Israeli military
launched a series of new air and sea attacks, dubbed as Operation Pillar
of Cloud, against the Palestinians of the coastal territory. The
offensive left at least ten Palestinians dead, including senior Hamas
commander Ahmed al-Jabari, the head of Izzeddin Qassam Brigades.
Riyad Mansour, the Palestinian Authority ambassador to the UN, said the Israeli offensive amounted to "illegal criminal actions."
In a letter to Indian Ambassador Hardeep Singh Puri, the president of the Security Council this month, Mansour said that a "message must be sent to Israel to cease its military campaign against the Palestinian people under its occupation, including the cessation of extrajudicial killing."
"This escalation, which continues at this moment, demands the attention of the international community, including the Security Council, with the aim of averting the further deterioration and destabilization of the situation on the ground and the fueling by Israel of yet another deadly cycle of violence and bloodshed," the Palestinian Authority envoy added.
"We want the Security Council to act in accordance with its responsibilities to stop this aggression against our people," he stated.
On Monday, Israeli Minister for Military Affairs Ehud Barak said that Tel Aviv was mulling over various options to punish the Palestinians of the coastal territory and had not ruled out the possibility of launching a new war on Gaza.

The Levant Braces for Regional War ~ link ~ From Israel's point of view, the present situation near Gaza is eerily similar to that of late 2008, when a ceasefire broke down in the middle of an Israeli election campaign and the Jewish state launched a brief incursion codenamed "Operation Cast Lead".
Israel ranked as most militarized nation on Earth ~ link ~ War is a three-lettered word that is totally opposite of another three-lettered word, God. The State of Israel is a millstone around the neck of the world in these final days. Stirling
Israel tops the list of the
world's most militarized nations, according to the
latest Global Militarisation Index released by the
Bonn International Centre for Conversion (BICC).
Israel's main regional rival, Iran is far
behind at number 34. Indeed, every other Near
Eastern country, with the exceptions of Yemen (37)
and Qatar (43), is more heavily militarized than
the Islamic Republic, according to the Index,
whose research is funded by the German Federal
Ministry for Economic Co-operation and
Development.
Is Israel escalating war on Gaza to foil US-Iran Deal? ~ link ~ What matters is that we are now in the Beginning of World War III. Stirling
This escalation occurs just days after widespread reports about newly
reelected Obama mulling a grand bargain with Iran over its disputed
nuclear program. Barbara Slavin and Laura Rozen at Al-Monitor reported
on Monday that US officials told them Washington was considering
offering a “more for more” deal with Iran, based on the fuel swap deal
from Obama’s first term.
There will be War in the Middle East ~ link ~ The military action that we are watching in the Middle East right now
is just a preview of coming attractions. Tensions in the region are
rising with each passing day, and all sides have been anticipating
future conflicts and preparing for war for decades. It would be
wonderful if everyone could sit down, forgive each other and agree to
quit fighting, but that is not going to happen. Most of us that live in
the western world have a very difficult time understanding the mindset
of those immersed in these conflicts. In the Middle East, there are
vendettas and grudges that go back literally thousands of years.
Children are raised in schools where they are taught to bitterly hate
their enemies from the time that they are first able to speak. As
Americans, we have forgiven former enemies such as Germany and Japan and
we just expect that everyone else should be able to forgive as well.
But that is simply not the way that it works over there, and there is no
long-term solution in the Middle East that is going to be acceptable to
all sides. Right now, Israel, Hamas, Hezbollah, the Muslim
Brotherhood, Syria and Iran are all preparing for war. Hopefully cooler
heads will prevail in this current crisis, but that will only delay the
inevitable. There will be war in the Middle East. Yes, politicians
such as Barack Obama will do their best to broker more "peace
agreements", but even the declaration of a "Palestinian state" will
never stop the fighting. In fact, it would just set the stage for more
war. I don't mean to sound pessimistic about the region, but the truth
is that there will be more war until it is not possible to fight any
longer. Any "peace plan" will just be a pause in the warfare.
Pillar of Biblical Cloud ~ link ~ Once again we've learned today that in the Jewish State, Goyim's
blood translates into political power. In order to win the Israeli
election, Benjamin Netanyahu feels the need to present the Israeli voter
with a substantial pile of Palestinian corpses.

So what does Israel’s impending war on defenseless Gaza have to do with Iran diplomacy? Here’s a tweet from the Tehran bureau chief for the New York Times, Thomas Erdbrink:
But hopefully the current crisis in the Middle East will not
immediately erupt into a full-blown regional war. That would not be
good for the global economy. In fact, that would not be good for anyone
at all.
Here are some of the most recent developments...
After the US Election, Syria War Threats Mount ~ link ~ The Syrian/Iranian/Hezbollah-Hamas Axis has taken the Strategic Initiative away from the Israeli/globalist/NATO/GCC Alliance to ensure that the General Regional War/WWIII begins over Gaza, with the resulting massive deaths of Arab civilians. This will greatly complicate things in the Arab streets for the GCC nations and their Alliance partners. This is an important strategic aspect of what is happening that most are overlooking. Stirling
One week after the reelection of President Barack Obama, the drumbeat for war against Syria has escalated sharply.
Over the past two days, military threats have escalated on both
Syria’s northern and southwestern borders, with Turkey threatening
intervention and Israel repeatedly firing on Syrian forces, allegedly in
retaliation for stray shells that have landed in the Israeli-occupied
Golan Heights.
Simultaneously, Washington has plowed ahead with the sordid business
of fabricating a new “sole legitimate representative of the Syrian
people.” This was placed on the agenda after US Secretary of State
Hillary Clinton’s announcement at the end of last month that the last
body to be so anointed—the Syrian National Council—had turned out to be a
bunch of out-of-touch exiles who needed to be replaced with more
representative figures, handpicked by the American State Department.
A Covert Affair: Petraeus caught in the Honeypot? ~ link ~ This is typical of Netanyahu. When then President Clinton, who also detested dear old Bibi, was ready to send a visiting PM Netanyahu back to Israel to face a coalition collapse, on the eve of the visit the 'Monica thing' blew up in Bill Clinton's face and it was Clinton who ended up fighting for his political life. On the eve of the Beginning of World War III and its trigger event, the General Middle East War now unfolding, Netanyahu has used another attractive Jewish woman to effect chaos in key government circles in Washington, and to replace a CIA Director not friendly enough to Israel. Do take the time to read all of this excellent story at the link. Stirling
All this establishes a context that goes far beyond the
titillating details of the alleged affair between Petraeus and Broadwell
— and this is no doubt what set alarm bells ringing in the intelligence
community when it was revealed. Is there really any need to point out
the uses of the “honeypot” in intelligence-gathering and other covert activities regularly engaged in by spooks of all nations? From Mata Hari to the Mossad agent
who lured Israeli nuclear scientist Mordecahi Vanunu, sex is a
time-honored weapon in the war of spy-vs-spy. A secret affair with the
CIA Director is the equivalent of the Honeypot Olympics, and we have to
ask: was the remarkably fit Ms. Broadwell a lure? If so, she’s won a
Gold Medal.
Broadwell’s actions — sending emails that were bound to
be traced back to her — appear to make little sense on the surface. But
if the goal of luring a 60-year-old geezer into an affair with a much
younger woman was to expose him, and get him fired, then surely her
antics succeeded in accomplishing that goal.
So who would have an interest in getting rid of
Petraeus? Here’s where the Cantor connection comes in. The tip by an
anonymous “FBI employee” that wound up in Cantor’s office two weeks ago
came through Rep. David Reichert,
Republican of Washington state, who has a friend who knows the
whistleblower. Cantor then spoke to the whistleblower directly, who put
him in touch with FBI Director Mueller.
Cantor is a great friend of Israel, and Petraeus — not so much. The General was attacked, as you’ll recall, by partisans of the Lobby, including Abe Foxman, when he delivered testimony
before Congress citing Israel as a strategic liability in the Middle
East. As the executor of the new Obamaite policy of sidling up to
Islamists, not only in Libya but also in Syria and Egypt, Petraeus was no doubt seen by the Israelis as an enemy to be neutralized.
Broadwell’s affiliation with the Jebsen Center, and the
Center’s connection to the neoconservative network, sets the scene: a
young, attractive woman with impeccable national security credentials
throws herself at Petraeus, and he takes the bait. Whether she’s been
recruited by a foreign intelligence agency at this point or not is
irrelevant: he’s already put himself in a vulnerable position, and there
are any number of actors on the international stage more than willing
to press their advantage.
Will we ever know the full story? At this point, the
story is so hot that it may burn the cover story — “it’s all about sex” —
right off the wrapper. Because there’s more — a lot more — here than
meets the eye. When Cantor pledged
to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that he and his fellow
Republicans “will serve as a check on the administration” in regard to
the President’s policy toward Israel, he was clearly aligning himself
with a foreign leader against American interests as perceived by the
White House. But would he really go this far — deliberately taking down a
key figure, one beloved by Republicans, in order to keep his promise to
Netanyahu?
Netanyahu talks to President Obama and Baroness Ashton on Gaza War ~ link
Like in the case of previous IDF's genocidal operations, the current Israeli Pillar of Cloud also has a Biblical connotation. In Exodus 13:21-22, you will find the following: “By day the Lord went ahead of them in a pillar of cloud to guide them on their way and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light,”
Seemingly, the current Israel murderous assault against civilians is
consistent with the Zionist secular interpretation of the Old Testament.
" …then you must destroy them totally. Make no treaty with them and
show them no mercy.” (Deuteronomy 7:1-2). However, this time it isn’t
God who guides his chosen people. It is actually a democratically
elected war criminal that was chosen by God’s favourite people.

Millions of workers strike over government spending cuts in Europe ~ link ~ And the banksters could care less about all these "useless eaters", they are after all just "two-legged soulless animals", nothing in comparison with the high and mighty super-elite. Stirling
Police and protesters clashed in Spain on Wednesday as millions of
workers went on strike across Europe to protest spending cuts they say
have made the economic crisis worse.
Hundreds of flights were cancelled, car factories and ports were at a standstill and trains barely ran in Spain and Portugal where unions held their first ever coordinated general strike.

International rail services were disrupted by strikes in Belgium and

demonstrations as part of a "European Day of Action and Solidarity".
"We're on strike to stop these suicidal policies," said Candido Mendez, head of Spain's second-biggest labor federation, the General Workers' Union, or UGT.

"We have no future!" EU anger unites millions in protest - with photos and video ~ link ~ Yep...time to kick off WWIII to control the sheeple! Stirling
Massive anti-austerity strikes and protests swept across Europe as
millions took to the streets to express their frustration over rising
unemployment and dire economic prospects. Many rallies ended with
violent clashes with police.
Workers marched in 23 countries across Europe to mark the European Day of Action and Solidarity. General
strikes had been called in Spain and Portugal, paralyzing public
services and international flights, in Belgium and France transport
links were partially disrupted by strikes and demonstrations, in Italy
and Greece thousands of workers and students marched through the
streets. Other EU countries, such as Germany, Austria and Poland, saw well attended union-led rallies.
The
Europe-wide strike action, the largest in a series of protests against
the austerity policies, was coordinated by the European Trade Union
Confederation (ETUC) and promoted on Twitter under the “#14N” hashtag.

Why bankers rule the world ~ link ~ In the 2012 edition of Occupy
Money released this month, Professor Margrit
Kennedy writes that a stunning 35% to 40% of
everything we buy goes to interest. This interest
goes to bankers, financiers, and bondholders, who
take a 35% to 40% cut of our gross domestic
product.
That helps explain how wealth is systematically transferred from Main Street to Wall Street. The rich get progressively richer at the expense of the poor, not just because of "Wall Street greed" but because of the inexorable mathematics of our private banking system.
This hidden tribute to the banks will come as a surprise to most people, who think that if they pay their credit card bills on time and don't take out loans, they aren't paying interest. This, says Kennedy, is not true. Tradesmen, suppliers, wholesalers and retailers all along the chain of production rely on credit to pay their bills. They must pay for labor and materials before they have a product to sell and before the end buyer pays for the product 90 days later. Each supplier in the chain adds interest to its production costs, which are passed on to the ultimate consumer. Kennedy cites interest charges ranging from 12% for garbage collection, to 38% for drinking water to, 77% for rent in public housing in her native Germany.

A solution whose
time has come
Public banking may be a radical solution, but it is also an obvious one. This is not rocket science. By developing a public banking system, governments can keep the interest and reinvest it locally. According to Kennedy and Creutz, that means public savings of 35% to 40%. Costs can be reduced across the board; taxes can be cut or services can be increased; and market stability can be created for governments, borrowers and consumers. Banking and credit can become public utilities, feeding the economy rather than feeding off it.
