The Iranian response appeared to begin at midday on Saturday when IRGC commandos seized an Israeli-linked container ship in the Strait of Hormuz.
13 April 2024
22:58 GMT
More than 100 Iranian drones have been downed outside of Israel by the US and UK, an unnamed Israeli defense official told the country’s Army Radio.

Israel getting punished with ‘Operation Truthful Promise’
Israeli reports say Iran has already fired three waves of drones at Israeli positions, as well as a number of cruise missiles. Footage captured by citizens in Iraq, suggests Iran's famous Shahed-136 drones are among the UAVs launched at the occupied territories.
ABC News has quoted American officials claiming that 400 to 500 drones are currently making their way towards Israel after being launched from Iran's territory.
Before the direct Iranian attack on Israeli targets, Hezbollah initiated a significant rocket barrage targeting the northern areas of occupied Palestine and the Golan Heights.
A cyber attack also plunged vast areas of the occupied territories, including Tel Aviv, into darkness.
Further Information indicates that both the Lebanese group and the Ansarullah movement in Yemen have initiated drone attacks on the occupied territories concurrently with Iranian strikes.
_______________________________--
TEHRAN- The Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) has issued a statement announcing the firing of dozens of drones and missiles against targets inside Israel in response to its "numerous crimes" including its air raids on the consular section of the Iranian embassy in Damascus, Syria, on April 1 in which seven Iranian military officers were martyred.
"In response to the numerous crimes of the Zionist regime, including the attack on the Iranian consulate in Damascus and the martyrdom of a group of our military commanders and advisors in Syria, the aerospace force of the IRGC targeted specific positions inside the occupied territories by firing dozens of missiles and drones," the statement reads.
________________________________________
“Definitely these insane operations will be the last struggles of the Zionist regime,” Major General Qassem Soleimani said, according to a Twitter account attributed to him.
It came days after Israel said it had launched air raids against Iranian targets near the Syrian capital city of Damascus. The Israeli military claimed its raids had prevented an attack on the Israeli-occupied territories “using killer drones.”
In a statement issued after the Israeli army announced its attack, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu praised the Israeli military for its “major operational effort.”

I was only 12 at the time but I was asking my mom do you think he killed her? She said yes he did because her lover is also dead. Had to be a jealous ex. True. Plus you can’t kill another big man unless you’re a big guy yourself. It had to be him. Because that man will fight for his life with everything he’s got. Again. True.

Ukraine army chief says that eastern Ukraine is under extreme pressure from Russian forces. The warmer weather makes it easier for advancing tanks etc. A British military chief thinks that this year could see an end to the war due to Russia's superior strength.
So, this really is when decisions as to whether greater support is given to Ukraine, or not.

online today!What Makes Jesus Unique? No one else made the claims that He did, He is alive...............
What feels good in the moment isn't always the thing that's the good thing and the right thing in the short term or the long term. But we live in a culture where it's where it's promoted and celebrated. We just follow your heart, follow your heart. And what I'm trying to do for us right now is to identify the source of humanity's problems. And it all begins here. And so. That's point one, here's point to. The highlight, humanity's feeble attempts to fix our problems on our own, we have a heart problem inside of us, something broken, something spiritually unclean, producing these things from the inside of us.
That's what Jesus says. So how do we go about fixing it once we know that the problem has been made plain to us? Well, this is what we're going to come to our text, Matthew. Chapter 23, verses 25 to 28. Here's a little bit of context. This is in this scene. Jesus is at the tail end of his three to three and a half year public ministry. He's been going around from town to town all throughout Israel, teaching and preaching and displaying the power of the kingdom of heaven through signs and wonders and and miracles of all sorts.
And he's been doing that for about three and a half years. But now his public ministry is coming to an end. It's Wednesday now, two days before his crucifixion. He's in Jerusalem is at Passover. It's packed in chapter. Twenty three of Matthew's Gospel is is documenting a back and forth that Jesus has been having with the religious leaders of his day as they're trying to entrap them, as they're trying to discredit him, as they're trying to prove him as a fraud, as a phony, and ultimately they want to have him destroyed.
That's the tension. And that's the scene that we're that we're in right now with Jesus and Jesus. And Matthew, 23, is pronounced in a series of woes upon the religious leaders, judgment upon them for their refusal to believe in him. God has come in. The person of Jesus wrapped themselves up in flesh and come to people and they reject God. And now he is produce, pronouncing judgment upon them. To those in our voices here tonight and in both of them and both of these walls in these verses, Jesus highlights the religious leaders, feeble attempts at fixing their own problems.
And we need to pay close attention, special attention, because we're going to realize that we can do the exact same things that they were doing 2000 years later, halfway around the world, different culture, different time, different space. It's the same humanities problem is the same. Our problem is the same. So here's there's two feeble attempts here, a feeble attempt. No one at the religious leaders trying to fix their own problem. They try to clean up the outside part of their life without addressing the inside part of their life.
They worked really hard at trying to fix the outside without paying attention to the inside. Listen to what Jesus says in versus 25-26. Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees hypocrites for you, clean the outside of the cup and plate, but inside they are full of greed and self-indulgence. You blind Pharisee first clean the inside of the cup and the plate that the outside also may be clean. I get this image of Jesus as you as I see it, I see the truth of it in my kitchen all the time, both myself and my daughter, Sydney, we both have protein shakes every once in a while that the using the blender put in the frozen fruit and the yogurt and the protein powder and all that kind of stuff.
It's great. You you blend it up and pour it into a glass cup and then you drink, you drink it and you're getting all the nutrients, all your muscle building power in. One shot problem, though, is that when you pour your protein smoothie in a glass cup and you don't rinse it right away. You know what happens if you better add protein shakes? You know what happens in a matter of time.

This defines a person. Do you not see that whatever goes into the mouth starting to go down 17, do you not see that whatever goes into the mouth, passes into the stomach and is expelled? But what comes out of the mouth proceeds from the heart, and this defiles a person for out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, s*xual immorality, theft, false witness slander. These are what the file a person. But to eat with unwashed hands does not defile anyone to hear what Jesus is saying, evil thoughts, murder, adultery, s*xual morality, theft, false witness, slander.
These things are the major problems in our world today. These are the problems. And Jesus are saying they don't originate outside of us. They originate on the inside of us. Our heart is the problem. It produces our problems from the inside. You won't be hearing this, many might be asking the question, yeah, OK, but what if I'm just minding my own business and someone actually outside of me, outside of my heart actually does something immoral or wicked or evil towards me?
Isn't that a problem that's outside of me and my heart? Yes and no. Let me try to address that. If someone does something wicked to you, what's the source of that problem? Their heart. Their heart is producing that wickedness that's been levied against you still, that has nothing to do with you yet, but here's where the more here's one of the stuff that happens against us and to us, where it becomes compounded and it becomes a real issue because we have we have unfortunate things happen to us all the time.
We have wicked things and unjust, unjust things happen to us all the time. Everyone does. But here's where it gets really messy, really bad, really fast. Not necessarily stop being that us. But what how do you respond to those things? How do you respond to those things when they happen against you, when someone does you wrong, big or small? Does your heart produce anger, vengeance, despair, violence, abuse, denial? Stuff happens to us, but our heart produces the response that we don't respond the way that we ought to to those things, and that compounds it and makes that experience far greater against you and for you than it would be if we had hearts that knew how to respond properly to things.
If left unchecked and undealt with our heart is what produces the things that keep us separated from God if we haven't come into a relationship with them yet, if this if this thing is not addressed, this this producer of this of the wicked and the evil and and the problems, if it's not left, if it's not addressed, we're we're in big trouble. So whatever you do, friends, brothers and sisters, whatever you do, whatever you do, don't follow your heart.
Don't follow your heart. If I had a quarter for every time I've heard people in person or on social media or whatever, say a kind of phrase similar to this man, I just got to follow my heart. I just got to do what feels right. And I and the amount of times I've type things and erased them or had to bite my tongue because if I had a quarter for every time, I'd be a rich, rich man. Our world lives this way.
It is it's this propaganda. It's it's promoted. Follow your heart. Do what makes you feel right. Do what you what you think is right. And what we've learned so far is we we cannot should not follow our heart because our hearts are the source of the problem. The Bible says that the heart is deceitful above all things. Who can know it? Our hearts trick us. They deceive us. They don't lead us down the right path.

True he can not. Russia is like a weak guy with a gun inside a bodybuilders union... they have to let him out or they mught get a bullit. That's been the understanding since day one that Nato can't really touch him here. He'll nuke us (you incuded) so if I was you I'd forget all hard stances here cos I can tell you Putin WILL NUKE US, if we send in our forces. Why? Cos there is millions of Russians in this part of Ukraine. He just spread out his umbrella over them.
After what happened in Jugoslavia you can still only see the western version here:
he attaced a severeign country and we can not just sit by? Really?
He is taking these 4 regions now as he took Krim last time. He ain't backing down.
The majority there are Russians or Russian decendants if you will.
Can't leave now, ever.
This is the Russian view of today.

Thanks for comment.
Everything appears to be loaded against Ukraine. I don't believe they can succeed without continual support from other countries, especially USA. The question is, should they be left to fail, or should Western Europe plus USA make the big decision to supply everything needed to turn the tables on Russia, including long range missiles and aircraft, and possibly, nuclear war heads. Drastic measures I know, but I don't see why Russia should be allowed to hit Ukraine without expecting the same destruction in its own territory. The one alternative is for NATO to step in and issue an ultimatum, get out of Ukraine or we enter the war. A risky stance, but this would, make Putin think hard as to whether the war is really worth the consequences. He knows he couldn't defeat NATO.
online today!RE: UK & USA ELECTIONS THIS YEAR. UKRAINE?
That's likely to happen either way.
Let the Ukrainian people decide.
Russia can match everything thrown at it. They will take Kiev too.
China is playing a huge part in Russia's war on Ukraine.
"The officials spoke to Reuters news agency and said China has massively increased its sales to Russia of machine tools, microelectronics and other technology to Moscow.
These items are important because Russia is using them to make tanks, aircraft, missiles and other weapons for the war.
They also said:
About 90% of Russia's microelectronics came from China
Nearly 70% of Russia's approximately $900m in machine tool imports in the last quarter of last year came from China
Chinese and Russian entities have been working together to make drones in Russia
China is helping Russia improve its satellite and other space-based capabilities for use in the war. This could increase the threat Russia poses across Europe.
US President Joe Biden has previously raised concerns with Chinese President Xi Jinping about Beijing's indirect involvement in the war.
US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen returned this week from a visit to Beijing and said she had warned China that the Biden administration was prepared to sanction Chinese banks, companies and Beijing's leadership if they helped Russia's military in the war.
She has already been given the go-ahead from Mr Biden to sanction financial institutions that help Russia's military-industrial complex.
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken is due to travel to China for talks next month."

Chinese leader using meeting with Ma Ying-jeou to promote peaceful ‘reunion’ as only alternative to annexation, say analysts
China and Taiwan are destined for ‘reunification’, Xi tells former president
Xi claims Taiwan as a province of China and has sworn to annex it, by force if necessary.
In the interim he has presided over a wide-scale campaign of political, economic and cognitive warfare, and near-daily military intimidation, in order to persuade Taiwan to accept Chinese rule.
Taiwan’s ministry of foreign affairs said Beijing’s “publicity campaign” couldn’t hide its ambitions to “eliminate Taiwan’s sovereignty”.
“External interference cannot stop the historical trend of reunion of the country and family,” Xi said, “there is no rancour that cannot be resolved, no problem that cannot be discussed, and no force that can separate us”.
Some people trust Trump while others trust Xi. C'est la vie. I suppose it's a case of who you like.
