Gaza Strip
Attacks: There are no safe places for the militarily-dominated population in Gaza, who find themselves subjected to airstrikes and other missile attacks on buildings, homes and many essentialfacilities, as well as constant gunfire and invasions by Israeli forces. The Israeli Navy continues to fire missiles, targeting facilities and buildings along the entire Gaza shoreline.
Victims: 60 more people have been killed within the past 48 hours, bringing the total number killed (including 62 bodies just found under rubble in Gaza) since 7 October 2023 to at least 47,035. Another 341 have been wounded, bringing that total to 111,091. The daily average number of men, women and children killed in Gaza is at least 99 and, that of those injured, is now more than 235.
What is the new American imperial plan in the Arab world?
The respectable journalist and former diplomat Craig Murray discusses in this video the massive construction project of a new “US Embassy” in Beirut. Craig points out innumerable inconsistencies and suspicious realities behind this “Embassy”, including the fact that it is staffed by over 5,000 employees, far more than even the most extensive US Embassy around the world . . . With Craig’s guidance, we can clearly understand that this project is certainly not an Embassy at all . . . It is, in fact, almost certainly a base for the ongoing military imperialist ambitions of the United States in the Arab world.
Anyone with a clear understanding of the history of these matters will justifiably expect that this building will also play a central role in the ongoing “intelligence” activities of the CIA, Mossad and the worldwide deep state/dark power structures of military imperialist nations. Craig also points to the central role of Cyprus within these imperialist power structures—and it should not be overlooked that Cyprus has been regularly reported to be on the path towards joining NATO, which is the predominant military arm of these imperialist powers in the region . . .
