Stray thought about Gaza, Israeli “military action”, and social media
What strikes me most about the UK Jew-Zionist outpourings on Twitter/”X” is the sheer sadism and hatred many of the Jew-Zionists are putting out. Many of them are gloating about how the civilians of Gaza are about to be crushed, subjected to pain and devastation etc.
Many Jew-Zionists are effectively or actually saying that the Gazan population (half of whom are under 18, and at least a quarter of whom are young or very young children) deserve to be wiped out or, more euphemistically, “taught a lesson they will never forget“.
What makes their comments even more contemptible is that the said Jew-Zionists are sitting in comfort in places such as North-West London, or in other suburban enclaves. They cannot wait for the poor, repressed, and helpless population of Gaza to be killed or injured; they themselves are in no danger, yet they are now already pretending to be “victims” and/or “fearful” that they will somehow be subjected to a pogrom in the UK!
It seems to be an ingrained psychological disorder.
Needless to say, the “holocaust” narrative is wheeled out in support….

Israel's military issued an evacuation order to Palestinians in Gaza, in its strongest hint yet that it prepares to launch a ground offensive almost a week after Hamas's surprise assault.
– ‘We have nowhere to go’: Gaza reacts to 24-hour warning to evacuate – US defence secretary arrives in Israel – Israel has right to ‘go after’ Hamas, says Shapps
Israel ordered the evacuation of more than a million civilians from the entire northern half of Gaza. The UN said the order would lead to “devastating humanitarian consequences,” and Gazan officials told Palestinians not to comply.

“The Israeli-Palestinian conflict distracts the West from Ukraine – expert It was no coincidence that the Hamas attack on Israel occurred on Vladimir Putin’s birthday, German expert Thomas Jaeger said in an interview with N-TV.
According to him, Russia is benefiting greatly from the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Moscow hopes that Western attention and, accordingly, military forces will now be redirected from Ukraine to the Middle East. As a result, support for Kyiv will weaken, and this, in turn, will open the way to victory for the Kremlin.
At the same time, the main events are now unfolding in the United States, where Congress cannot agree on a budget containing financial assistance for Ukraine. The results of this political chaos will predetermine the further development of events.”
YouGov Scottish Westminster Voting Intention:
SNP 33% (-5) Lab 32% (+5) C 20% (+4) LD 5% (-2) Green 5% (-1) Reform 2% (-2)
Fed into Electoral Calculus, the result of such a general election would be: Labour on 504 seats, Conservatives on 64 seats, LibDems on 27, SNP 32, Green 1 (plus a few Welsh and Northern Irish). Overall Labour majority of 358.
That would be a complete elected dictatorship, and one brought about not because voters really like Labour, but because the new multicoloured fake “Conservative” Party is not so much hated as despised (as useless). A Labour Party elected dictatorship by default.
The Conservative Party reduced to 64 seats. Existential peril?

Imagine the level of entitlement it takes for Jew-Zionists to sit in the UK, cheerleading the Gaza devastation and slaughter, and at the same time imagining themselves to be somehow “victims”, and demanding the sympathy of the population, police, and courts.

“Rapists could be spared jail from next week as prisons reach breaking point, it was reported last night.
Sex offenders and burglars could be let out on bail rather than handed an immediate custodial sentence, according to guidance issued to judges.
The most dangerous criminals will reportedly have to be held in magistrates’ court cells if they are remanded in custody.
Prisons in England and Wales are on the brink of maximum capacity, with 88,016 inmates last Friday – leaving just 650 spaces spare.
The senior presiding judge for England and Wales, Lord Edis, ordered that sentencing hearings will have to be postponed from Monday, The Times reported.”
[Daily Mail].
There has been a sentencing crisis for years. While many crimes of drunken violence, acquisitive crime etc attract, quite often, non-custodial sentences, other crimes, often very minor, not only result in prison time but in very considerable time.
Look at the political realm. Harmless teenage fantasists who have downloaded online material such as the notorious Anarchist’s Cookbook (which was sold openly in London bookshops in the 1970s, and without the State imploding) have been sentenced to terms of 4, 5, even 7 years, incredibly. Anything (political or otherwise) involving illicit possession of a weapon (even a WW2 revolver) has attracted sentencing as severe, or more severe.
Likewise, there have been sentenced to prison people such as Alison Chabloz (sentenced to a number of months for posting “antisemitic” satirical songs and cartoons online), Jez Turner (a year, for having suggested in a brief speech in Whitehall that Jews should be driven out from England as they were under Edward I in the 14th Century), and “Sven Longshanks” (James Allchurch, sentenced to a very harsh 2.5 years for having posted “antisemitic” material on an internet radio station).
The alert reader will have noted the common factor in the immediately-above three Draconian sentences, but what do you expect when 10 Downing Street has the Israeli flag projected onto its facade? Or when Keir Starmer, posing as Labour Party leader, thinks that the Israeli ethnostate has every right to cut off water, food, and electricity (and everything else) from the 2 million inhabitants of Gaza.
As far as non-political crimes are concerned, one often sees newspaper reports these days about various types of criminal sentenced to, say, terms of 4, 5, or 6 years in prison, when a far shorter term of, say, a couple of years would really suffice. Likewise, people are sometimes —in fact, often— sentenced to a year or more in circumstances where, even retaining a custodial element, a few months would be more than enough.
At the present time, the crisis of available space would easily be solved if judges were to work out carefully, as they are supposed to do, the proper sentence in every case, but then, after all that, cut off a percentage, as an emergency administrative-judicial measure. Say 20%, so that a headline sentence of 5 years becomes one of 4 years, or one of 2.5 years becomes one of 2 years. That would scarcely impact anything other than space in prisons and, within a few months, would start to solve the present problem.
“Captain Sir Tom Moore‘s daughter has confessed to pocketing £800,000 from books written by the NHS fundraising war veteran.
In a tearful interview, Hannah Ingram-Moore revealed how the family received the money thanks to her father – whose lockdown walks raised £39million for the nation’s health service.
Mrs Ingram-Moore said her father wanted them to keep the profits from his three books: Captain Tom’s Life Lessons, One Hundred Steps and his autobiography Tomorrow Will Be A Good Day.
The family is also adamant that people buying the books were never told their money was going to charity.
However, the prologue of his autobiography calls this claim into question and suggests the veteran thought his books were just another way for him to raise cash.
The extract read: ‘Astonishingly at my age, with the offer to write this memoir I have also been given the chance to raise even more money for the charitable foundation now established in my name.’“

I was in the minority of sceptics when the old ex-officer (he spent 6 years in uniform during WW2) started his “crusade”. While arguably wrongheaded, one had to respect the grit of the old fellow, yet the whole thing played into the “scamdemic” propaganda of the time, and even the £30M raised probably did little to help the maladministered NHS.
I could see that the daughter and her husband were basically a pair of freeloaders, if not outright frauds, but people so badly (and rightly) want to believe. In something. In anything. You only have to look at the well-known online “grifters” and frauds around. “Jack Monroe”, “Supertanskiii”, “Man Behaving Dadly” etc. There are dozens, probably hundreds, of them. They destroy trust in society, as do some of the family of the late Captain Moore.

I think that I may start including a random historical note from Wikipedia etc in all my blog posts. It is quite shocking how few British people know their own history, even in outline.
[little boy and his dead cat, following Israeli air attack on Gaza]
Were the atrocities not so terrible, it would be funny to see the UK Jewish/Israel lobby all both pushing out (identical) Israeli propaganda and —at the same time— saying, when asked about the quasi-genocidal Israeli Gaza siege, and mass murder of Gazan civilians, “oh, no, that has nothing to do with us; we bear no responsibility” and “we are just opposed to antisemitism, the actions of Israel are nothing to do with our campaigning in the UK...”.
Etc.
Typical.
Incidentally, I have never seen political fraud and con-man Nigel Farage so pumped-up as when parroting the current Israeli propaganda line in the past few days.
“In the wake of the merciless assault by Hamas, Israel seems to be planning the same approach.
All the signs are that its government is preparing to retaliate on a massive scale, mobilising the country’s formidable armed forces against Gaza, which is controlled by Hamas.
Yet just as Iraq turned out to be a calamitous error, fuelling a lasting cycle of violence, so I fear that – however understandable – any attempt by Israel to exact its vengeance with a savage display of military might could be just as disastrous.”
“…a full invasion, such as Israel’s generals are surely discussing today, would be a bloody quagmire. For Jerusalem, it would mean a conveyor belt of tired soldiers fighting day and night, resupplying with food, water and military hardware, rotating and evacuating casualties, for months on end.
It would chew up thousands of troops for little or no benefit, and poison the Arab world, and to a certain extent the international community, against the Jewish state.
Alas, it looks like Israel is set to take precisely this route.
Already the country has launched a barrage of air strikes, causing heavy civilian casualties – unsurprising given that more than two million people are living in a strip the size of the Isle of Wight.” [in fact, smaller than the Isle of Wight— 141 sq. miles as against 148].
“This bombardment has been buttressed by a siege designed to weaken the morale of the citizenry by cutting off their water and electricity.
Yet what is the ultimate objective? What does ‘victory’ for Israel even look like?”
[Gaza City, already devastated by Israeli air attack]
It would be even more interesting were Israel to face attack or, even more so, invasion from the directions of Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan, and perhaps even (though even less likely) from Egypt, and if the Palestinian Arabs of the West Bank were also to join in the fight.
The immediately-above scenario is unlikely, true, but the Americans must have some reason to have moved one of their fleets closer to the region.
If such a concerted invasion and uprising were to happen, though, Israel could be destroyed, its population fleeing in panic.

I was in New York at the time, in 1990. Those lies (blown up hugely by the Jew-Zionist mass media) were quite effective in moulding the TV narratives and the political conversation etc.
Food, fuel, medicine and water have all been cut off into the Gaza Strip, while the land itself comes under heavy bombardment.
Water cut off, food cut off, electricity and gas cut off; all other supplies cut off, and area bombing and rocketing of civilian areas, in a “ghetto” occupied by 2 million inhabitants, 600,000 of whom live in Gaza City.
Of the 2 million Palestinian Arabs in the Gaza Strip, about 1 million are under-18, and most of that million are young children.
If there was ever a war crime amounting to at least quasi-genocide, this surely must be it.

If, as voter, you vote Labour now, you get moneygrubbing tools of Israel such as Emily Thornberry (and Rachel Reeves, and Yvette Cooper, and Keir Starmer). Why bother?
Emily Thornberry, “human rights” lawyer (etc), who thinks it justifiable for Israel to cut off water and food (etc) from 2 million people, almost all of whom (about 96%) are non-combatants, half of whom are under-18, and hundreds of thousands of whom are young or very young children.
Douglas Murray says the celebration of the Hamas attacks shows there are "simple supporters of genocide” in the UK.
I used to wonder what Israeli Intelligence had on Murray to make him the unashamed propagandist for Israel and the Jew-Zionist lobby that he is. Now, I tend to think that he is just deeply psychologically damaged.
As for Julia Hartley-Brewer, I think (am unsure) that she is part-Jewish. She is certainly rather ignorant; I had to correct her on a couple of legal points when I still had a Twitter account (a pack of Jews managed to have me expelled in 2018). Instead of thanking me for schooling her, she tried to obfuscate, and then blocked me.
Murray is right with his “flare” metaphor, though. These events have shown what group really pulls the strings of our “democratic” political parties, and System politicians. With a tiny number of honourable exceptions, all puppets of Israel and the Jew-Zionist lobby. From Sunak to Starmer, and from Emily Thornberry to that fraudulent bastard Nigel Farage.

In a new tactic, Israel is warning civilians to evacuate neighborhood after neighborhood, and then inflicting devastation, in what could be a prelude to a ground offensive.

[Israeli attack on Gaza]
If there were an invasion from the North (Lebanese/Syrian territory), that would place the Israeli army under great strain; even more so were Jordan to attack Jerusalem from the East. Neither is likely, though. So far, not even the West Bank Arabs have joined in, not in any substantial way.
For me, as observer, it seems that the importance of these events has been psychological and not military, as such.
The repressed Palestinian Arabs must now realize what may be possible, and the Israeli Jews must also realize what may one day happen (maybe not so far down the line). The Arabs must be feeling emboldened (despite the effectively genocidal Israeli siege and pounding of Gaza), but the Israeli Jews must be feeling fear that all their military might may, one day soon, not be enough to save them. Many must be keeping their second or third passports to hand, in case they decide to flee.
Obviously, from a strict military point of view, the Israeli Army, with its 2,000 or more tanks, and the Israeli Air Force, with hundreds of strike planes, fighters, attack helicopters, and now also drones, cannot be defeated by the poorly-equipped militia of the Palestinian factions. The Israeli Goliath looms over the Palestinian David.
That may, though, in the end, not be the whole picture.

Of course, I was one of the first to realize what a useless lump of nothing “Boris” Johnson was/is. About 20 years ago. Everyone else, pretty much, was willing to swallow the line that “Boris” was brilliant, principled, strong, interesting, a Poundland Churchill for our times. The Jews liked him because he is part-Jew, the Muslims liked that he is part-Levantine, the petit bourgeois Daily Mail readers liked the fact that he had been to Eton and Oxford.
In fact, Johnson was only ever a “cosplay”, as people now say; an am-dram “Churchill”, or a matrioshka with nothing inside. A mainly faked “British upper class” persona, a persona with which the part-Jew, part-Levantine chancer was able to fool the plebs.
Of course, put to the test in political office, it all fell to pieces. He proved himself again and again a liar, unprincipled (and not even in an intelligent way), not any kind of “intellectual”, useless, incapable of either ideology or religion, disloyal, and without a real idea in his muddled head.

The sick thing is that Labour, especially under Starmer, has so very little to offer the British people.

I do think that, after the last few years especially, the Conservative Party has probably reached the end of the road. That may result, once Starmer has really angered people, in the first real and sustained upsurge for social nationalism in my lifetime.

America must attack Iran if Hezbollah attacks Israel – 19FortyFive
According to geopolitical analyst Brandon Weichert, Israel will not stand up to Hamas and Hezbollah, so the United States will join the war in the Middle East to “protect its interests in the region.”
“Gaza has constant power cuts, dismal public services, dirty water and a crushing lack of jobs.
Most of its energy comes from Israel – but even the small contributions from Gaza’s single power plant, like all private generators, rely on imported diesel.
Much of the struggling health services depend on the United Nations and charities. Patients in need of more serious treatment require permission from Palestinian and Israeli officials to travel outside the Strip, which is ringed with 20ft fences, motion sensors, radar and cameras.
But the most critical shortage here is of hope. This is one of the world’s most densely populated places and has one of the youngest populations – yet more than two-thirds of young adults are unemployed, while eight in ten residents rely on external aid.
Although tens of thousands of Palestinians used to leave Gaza to work in Israel, the border was sealed after the Hamas takeover, so an entire generation has grown up never able to leave the Strip and never having met an Israeli.
This all makes it fertile ground for Hamas to find ‘martyrs’ for its twisted cause, especially amid the trauma of living under frequent attack and bombardment.
It is little wonder that past polls have found half of Gazans want to leave this blighted place – and no surprise that it was the source of the latest explosion of hatred to stain this turbulent region.“
[Daily Mail].
A 2018 account from Conservative Party-supporting journalist Ian Birrell (he wrote some speeches for David Cameron-Levita c.2012), but interesting, and worth reading the full version.
Gaza has been called “an open prison” but it is is probably more accurate to call it a large-scale guarded ghetto. In fact, to me it resembles from a distance— I have never been there, nor (obviously) Israel— the Warsaw Ghetto of the early 1940s: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warsaw_Ghetto.

Of course, casualties in Gaza will be given less prominence than those in Israel, because the Western mass media is —mostly— controlled, or at least heavily influenced, by Jew-Zionists.

Do you understand Israel cut communications in Gaza to carpet bomb it without warning (as a bare minimum requirement of human rights) and then making sure they can’t call for help or check on each other.

Israel is not even informing civilians about the residential buildings to be targeted to be able to evacuate. This is direct evidence of intent, after verbal intent by Liberman and Netanyahu earlier, that they're literally on a mass slaughter campaign.

Israel possesses the most accurate and precise technology in the world, and every Palestinian civilian and non-combatant killed is an intentional targeted kill.

I caught a few minutes of Kay Burley on Sky News this morning. Complete pro-Israel bias. Not surprising. After all, the job pays well, and enough to dine at the Chiltern Firehouse, with bottles of wine at £400 apiece.
To be fair to Kay Burley, she did apparently put ludicrous “Foreign Secretary” James Cleverly on the spot, also today:
Kay: What support does the British Govt offer to the people of Gaza?
Foreign Sec @JamesCleverly : We are trying to minimise the risk of escalation.
Having someone like Cleverly as Foreign Secretary is just embarrassing.

The events in Israel/Palestine have resulted in an outpouring of System virtue-signalling.
Sunak, Starmer, and many others all falling over each other to pledge allegiance to Israel. Political con-man, and “controlled opposition” kingpin Nigel Farage, too. In a way, it is a good thing that those who are under that control have identified themselves.
On a different note, I wonder whether the “answer” to the otherwise intractable Gaza problem might be to establish a programme whereby Gazans can relocate to new towns across the Middle East, with co-operation of governments within the region. Instead of one very crowded city of 2 million inhabitants, 19-20 towns, each with 100,000 inhabitants. Gaza itself to be reduced to 100,000, or perhaps to be returned to sparsely-populated farmland.
The above “solution” might be acceptable both to the Gazans themselves (giving them greater freedom and better living conditions) and to the Israeli government (reducing the “security threat” to near-zero), if it could be organized.

The U.S. is likely to feel pressure to strengthen Israel’s defences against Hamas rockets with weapons like the highly effective Patriot surface-to-air anti-missile system.
America does not have a big stockpile of these Patriots, and Israel will receive priority, meaning there will be far fewer for President Zelensky’s government.“

The stories coming out of Gaza and Southern Israel are more than merely unpleasant; terrible. As far as the Palestinian combatants are concerned, if they are sometimes monstrous, it is because they have been made monstrous, and made so mainly by the behaviour of the Israeli Jews.

All that, and the bastard will probably also take to wearing a skyblue-and-white tie soon…
My guess is they’re trying to link up Gaza with the West Bank and cut off southern Israel. Combine Gaza, southern Israel and the West Bank into a Palestinian state. With pressure from Hezbollah from the north and anyone else who joins in they might pull it off.
That compares to about 157 immediately-available tanks in the British order of battle (though Britain does have over 3,000 of all types of armoured vehicle). Germany has about 2,500 main battle tanks, the USA up to 9,000, China about 9,000, and Russia as many as 23,000.
The importance of the large-scale incursion from the Gaza “open prison” into Israel lies in its psychological effect on the Israelis. I predicted on the blog, several years ago, that something like this would probably happen eventually. The Palestinian Arabs would break free of their confinement and start to kill Israeli combatants and civilians.
Once combat is taking place in urban and suburban areas, weapons such as heavy tanks, jet fighter aircraft, bomber aircraft and nuclear weapons become less effective. In such situations, infantry come into their own and, in infantry combat, the Israelis may not have a huge person-to-person advantage over ad hoc or militia forces.

Gaza is effectively an open prison. A loose comparison, but fairly accurate. At a push of a button, the Israelis, i.e. Jews, can cut off water, food, electricity, medical supplies etc, and have done so now.
In the short term, militarily, the Palestinian Arabs cannot win, but in the longer term, looking at demographics etc, they can scarcely lose. As for the Israeli Jews, they have now seen, on a limited scale, their likely future, which may come to pass in 5 years, 10 years, 20 years, or the day after tomorrow.

Tamworth constituency has a fairly ancient history (on various different boundaries and names), going back to the 13th Century. Its most famous MP was Sir Robert Peel, who represented the town from 1830-1850 (he was MP for three other places from 1809-1830), and who was Prime Minister 1834-1835 and 1841-1846: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Peel.
The most recent MP, the appropriately-named Chris Pincher, was rather less distinguished, having been finally forced to resign in 2023 after several years of having been accused, then eventually adjudged guilty, of having sexually molested men, including MPs, in bars.
Looking at his Wikipedia entry, it seems that Pincher only became an MP in 2010, at age 41, and had done nothing very interesting prior to that (though Wikipedia is not infallible). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Pincher.
Tamworth, on its present boundaries, was held by Labour from 1997 (when the present seat was brought into being) until 2010; Pincher failed to secure the seat in 2005, but took it in 2010 with a vote-share of 45.8%. Thereafter, his percentage vote increased at every election, peaking in 2019 at 66.3%.
At that 2019 election, Labour Co-op came in second, but poorly, on 23.7%. The other 4 candidates were very much also-rans, only the LibDems retaining their deposit (with 5.3%).
The by-election will be held on 19 October 2023, and has attracted 9 candidates: Conservative, Labour, LibDem, Green, UKIP, Reform (the latest Farage vehicle), Britain First, Monster Raving Loony, and an independent. See https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-stoke-staffordshire-66864806 for candidates’ details.
The Government is obviously deeply unpopular, and also seen as useless. However, Labour is not much liked either. There may be protest vote possibilities, but the main object may be to send a message to the Government, and I suppose that a vote for Labour is most likely to cause the Government pain, if it results in the by-election ending with a Labour win.
Hard for me to call. I have only once even driven through the town, and that was long ago. Not an area I know. Overall, it seems to me that the LibDems are too marginal here to have much chance, so it is between Con and Lab. To elect the Labour candidate would require a huge swing, but I think that it must be possible, as public feeling now stands.
If Labour can pull it off at Tamworth, the 2024 General Election will look sealed. The over-used word “seismic” comes to mind.
So we turn to Mid-Bedfordshire.
Nadine Dorries had to be almost forced out of the seat she had held since 2005, and which had provided her with a good income; both salary and very inflated expenses. She was lucky to have avoided prosecution. A very stupid, entirely uneducated, but withal cunning woman. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nadine_Dorries.
The by-election, to be held on 19 October 2023, the same day as that at Tamworth, has attracted no less than 13 candidates, mostly minor or crank.
Nadine Dorries scored 59.8% at the 2019 General Election (Labour 21.7%, LibDems 12.6%).
Mid-Bedfordshire has been a Conservative Party seat since the 1920s.
This would normally be a shoo-in for the Conservative Party candidate, but several factors make that less than likely. Anger at the freeloading and fraudulent behaviour of Nadine Dorries. The general anger at the present Government. Perhaps also the fact that the Con candidate is a careerist black: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Festus_Akinbusoye.
The Conservative Party candidate is presently Police and Crime Commissioner for Bedfordshire, only came to the UK at 13 from his native Nigeria, and is a Mormon.
The opinion polls have Con and Lab neck and neck, with the LibDems not far behind. Tactical voting may play the decisive role, but does that mean anti-Con voters voting Labour, or voting LibDem?
Reform, the Farage vehicle, is polling around 7%, as is county council chairman Gareth Mackey, standing as Independent.
Very hard to call, but Labour may just have the edge.
I suppose that the other point is that Sunak may be pressured to stand down as Con Party leader if one contest is lost (or only if both are lost?).
[Update, 22 January 2024: in the end, Labour won both by-elections.

Whatever may be said of Labour or Angela Rayner, that tweet is surely correct. The 2024 General Election is Labour’s to lose. The Conservative Party is just dissolving. I notice that evil sociopath Chris Grayling is now not going to stand for re-election.

At first, the rockets sent by the Palestinian resistance were little more than fireworks, but over the years and decades the technology has improved. It seems that now at least some of those rockets are quite powerful.
Israel, for all its military might, and for all its money, and its control/influence in other countries, is doomed in the long run. Demographics alone, in the region as a whole, would seem to indicate that.

There is a high probability that the invasion from the Gaza Strip is just a diversionary maneuver, and a much more powerful invasion will follow from the north, by Hezbollah forces – Senior Lieutenant of the Israeli Defense Forces Yigal Levin.
I have to admit that I would never have guessed that the Arabs would be able both to co-ordinate such attacks and also keep the date and time of them secret. Presumably, the Israelis were also not expecting this.
Israel's military leadership unanimously agreed that the only proportionate response was a full-scale ground operation in the Gaza Strip – Israeli media
Again, quelle surprise— Israel almost always hits civilian targets.
Hamas commander Al-Arouri: We had information that Israel was planning a military operation against the West Bank and Gaza Strip after the Jewish holidays.
Possible/plausible “conspiracy theory”: the Israeli ruling circles knew of the Hamas plan, but allowed it to happen, “throwing under a bus” their own Jewish inhabitants, in order to be able invade Gaza as a form of “self-defence”. That is what, mutatis mutandis, Roosevelt did before and after Pearl Harbor.

What is important about the events of the past 24 hours is not the statistical rate of attrition, not the damage done, and not even which side eventually “wins” in the short term (bearing in mind Israel’s huge military superiority, that can hardly be in doubt), but the fact that an incursion like that seen has happened at all.
Hamas has broken something now— the sense of effortless Israeli military might, and the idea that any invasions or incursions into Israeli territory will be slight, only in one area, and easily repulsed.
In the longer term (i.e. after 2023), that may prove to be the most significant fact about these events. The Palestinian Arabs now know what is or might be possible, no matter what Israeli/Jewish repression follows the current events.
This may just be the beginning of the end for Israel.

Still no explanation from BBC Question Time as to why “Jack Monroe” was invited onto the show not long ago, thus facilitating more of her fraudulent activities. She was exposed years ago as a continual liar, and increasingly, certainly since mid-2022, as an outright fraud.
I myself have been surprised, over the past year, as to how outrageous the “Jack Monroe “grift”/fraud is and has been.
Thinking about the “Jack Monroe” fraud and/or “grift” reminded me of a similarly untruthful character I encountered 30 years ago.
When I returned from the USA in 1993, and started to try to make a living at the Bar (based in exceptionally-poor chambers in London), I did both civil and criminal cases, though I was never much at home in the criminal courts.
At that time (maybe still today, I do not know), solicitors employed unqualified stray persons as “outdoor clerks”, who would attend court hearings on behalf of the instructing solicitors, and in support of Counsel appearing. They had no rights of audience but were more or less messengers and “spear-carriers”.
Such “outdoor clerks” were people most of whom had no legal training at all: out-of-work actors, retired people in need of a financial top-up, all sorts. The advantage in employing them, for solicitors, was the low cost. I seem to recall that a recently-retired lady I knew got £10 or so (maybe £40 or £50 in today’s money) to attend. Most of the hearings were brief, and even with the waiting around etc, the “outdoor clerk” was usually free by lunchtime if not before. Any more-serious hearings, including trials weightier than minor traffic matters, would usually be attended by an articled clerk (trainee solicitor) or a solicitor in person.
One fine day, I was sent to appear in the magistrates’ court somewhere, and was met at court by an outdoor clerk, a rather swarthy mustachioed person, maybe late thirties, who looked more like what the police might term a “villain” than any kind of quasi-legal representative. As soon as he had introduced himself, a furious man accosted him and said “I need a word with you!“, upon which the pair adjourned to a nearby room where I could see them arguing.
The outdoor clerk, one Mitch Baird, then re-emerged, explaining that the furious man was a solicitor with mental health problems. I accepted that explanation by default. I was thinking more about the case in hand, the first appearance of a defendant in an indictable case.
After that, I was instructed on other matters (civil as well as criminal) by the same firm of solicitors, headed by a Jew called “Maxwell”, so encountered Mitch Baird fairly frequently. I met his West Indian girlfriend, with whom he lived (when around). A pleasant woman. I also met her mother. Their house (belonging to the mother) was a large detached Victorian house in the Stamford Hill area of London better known for its population of Hasidic Jews. I even attended a kind of garden party there, well-attended by an eclectic mix, including at least one Metropolitan Police detective (I would never have guessed his occupation).
That all-day barbeque/garden party, which I helped Baird to set up, was also notable for the amount of booze consumed: Baird and I alone drank (I think) 12 (it may have been “only” 8, but even so…) bottles of Bulgarian red wine between us (it seems impossible to me now…), before, late in the evening, heading to Le Caribe, “London’s only silver-service Caribbean restaurant” (now long-closed), a mile or so away, for a couple of imported (Trinidadian) Carib beers at the bar, overlooking a scene of gold-festooned Yardie types dining nearby. Baird then drove me home to Little Venice and dropped me off there. God knows what his alcohol reading would have been, had he been stopped.
Well, suffice to say that the said Baird was not to be trusted. Reports and complaints gradually emerged. For example, he had, apparently, actually taken money in cash from the family of a young Trinidadian visitor for legal defence, when the latter was supposedly legally aided! I had appeared for the defendant, managed to get the charge dropped as well (possession of an offensive weapon), but was never paid (Baird had obviously not put in the requisite legal aid papers).
In a civil case involving defamation, Baird had (in my own chambers, after a conference), got the lay client to make out a cheque for £2,000 to Baird himself. I was myself totally unaware of those facts at the time.
When the lay client discovered that my written advice was that the case was unlikely to succeed, he complained to my clerk that he had been cheated by both the Jew solicitor, “Maxwell”, and by Baird (I was cleared by the client of dishonesty but described in his letter as having not understood what a good case he had! His letter had gone to the Law Society (the solicitors’ body), I think, with the names of all concerned, such as MILLARD, in capital letters, as in the files of the Security Service. That detail has always stuck in my memory.
The lay client had demanded that my clerk, or I myself, somehow get back his money.
Though I was myself blameless (as was my almost useless clerk of the time), I could see the situation snowballing. My clerk had discovered that the £2,000 cheque (worth at least £6,000 today) had been paid into a bank account controlled by Baird’s girlfriend, Baird having himself been blackballed by all banks. I therefore pressured the girlfriend on the telephone, telling her (truthfully) that she could go to prison if the money was not handed back.
I am not a natural bully, but needs must, and after a great deal of bitter tears, the girlfriend did agree to give the money to my clerk, who returned it to the lay client.
I believe that Baird split up later with that woman. No loss (to her). She was probably unaware that she was but one string to his bow. In fact, a very nice St. Lucian bar owner woman had told me that various West Indian women were always telephoning the bar for Baird, leaving messages etc.
Baird then had the cheek to telephone me at chambers and threaten to “give you a good hiding”, as he put it, if I refused to give him, via my clerk, the £2,000. I invoked the name of the Metropolitan Police, then put the telephone down. I never heard from Baird again.
In the interim, though, I happened to meet, at court, that furious man described at the beginning of this story. It turned out that, far from being the lunatic described by Baird, he was a most reasonable fellow, a solicitor who had employed Baird in the recent past as outdoor clerk, and who had discovered that Baird was stealing money, tricking clients out of cash, demanding cash even when the defendant was legally-aided etc.
That solicitor also gave me some background. It seemed that Baird’s parents were mestizos from one of the main Caribbean islands (I forget which), and that his father was a pillar of the community (I think a surgeon). Baird was white-ish but his half-brother not. Baird himself had apparently been a shocking disappointment and source of shame to his parents, by reason of his various behaviours in the Caribbean.
That solicitor had told me how it had taken him a long time to untangle the skein of fraud, theft, and lack of any responsibility, of Baird. The Law Society had been on the solicitor’s neck, I think.
I was contacted not long afterward by that half-brother of Baird, who begged me to meet him and his Polish girlfriend to discuss the matter. Turned out that he worked in a senior (he said) or middle-management (my guess) role at Citibank. He was afraid of scandal tarnishing him, especially the fraudulent aspects of his half-brother’s behaviour.
I met the couple at Ronnie Scott’s, the famous Soho jazz club, which I had not visited previously, and which I found quite interesting. The “Citibank” Baird and Polish girlfriend (a blonde dentist), who seemed to have some kind of VIP membership (we were able to jump the queue to get in) were not unpleasant, and we discussed the problem amicably enough before parting.
What struck me at the time is how the fraudulent Baird had managed to get away with many things because most people, most of the time, believe most of what is told to them, especially when they are introduced (by others, or via mass media “validation”) to the fraudulent individual in such a way as to lull suspicion.
It takes time to wake up to the lies of a hard-core narcissist.
Here we come to the similarity with “Jack Monroe”, the so-called “Bootstrap Cook”. She was introduced to the public by sort-of-trusted organizations and people. The Guardian. The Observer. TV shows. Nigella Lawson, the Jewish TV cook. Others.
That validation (which to some extent continues— incredibly, “Jack Monroe” was on BBC Question Time recently, long after her “grifting” and outright fraud was exposed) makes many tend not to question her bona fides.
Even now, you see on Twitter those unthinking people perfectly happy to accept that “Jack Monroe” crowdfunded to “sue Lee Anderson”, then did not sue Lee Anderson (a few of the mugs even think that she did sue— and won!), and then (as she claims) donated all those crowdfunded monies to an unnamed food bank, indeed to one which she refuses to name. Meanwhile she tries to pull the old “mental health”, “physical health”, and “fear of stalkers and trolls” stunts, which she has used many times previously when suspicions about her gather.
Some commentators think that I am wasting my time on “Jack Monroe” and her mug supporters. Probably, but it makes me angry to see vulnerable, well-meaning, often elderly and, not-infrequently seen, disabled and sick people being taken for mugs by that cheat and liar, who is just laughing at them, if only they were able to wake up and see it.
Where are the police? Still seizing “racist” teddy bears? Still snooping on Twitter or blog posts?
Finally, I have no idea what happened to the egregious Mitch Baird. Maybe the bastard died. Many of those who target me seem to live relatively short lives. Or maybe he just faded into terminal obscurity.

Either “Jack Monroe” called in a few favours to get onto Question Time or the BBC has gone completely mad.
Question Time does not pay guests, but of course the free publicity and attendant credibility is worth rubies.
One to watch: will Jack Monroe finally face the music & be forced to reveal how much money she’s squeezed out of donors? Especially fund-raising for legal cases she never took to court? Tick tock… https://t.co/5E3tYwa4jE
After the recent revelations about how much cash Jack Monroe has scammed from people, and evidence of her habitual lies, I am genuinely surprised so many people are retweeting her fallacious rhetoric as if nothing has happened.
There is, quite obviously, an attempt now being made to turn the clock back and rehabilitate the reputation of thieving “grifter” “Jack Monroe”.
This is horrendous behaviour and I’m sorry it’s happened to you. She constantly complains people doxx her and then she does it to someone else simply for asking for a refund. Jack Monroe is the lowest of the low. #PayItBackJack
Oh, look… Jack Monroe is trending again. Pretending to live in poverty while they make loads of money. Oh look…. its not because they're pretending to be poor, it's because they just doxxed someone.
People have been trying to hold Jack Monroe accountable for her very questionable fund raising and Patreon subscriptions for some time now (she calls them trolls) Her response that she has to attend court is to dox the claimant to her 500K followers. WTF? https://t.co/AX9Ftry6cb
When #JackMonroe speaks at a festival or on TV, she gets away with cheap soundbites which play well in endlessly repeated social media clips. There’s no depth of analysis, no substance. The REAL experts like @jrf_uk are doing the real work. 👇 https://t.co/ouSFutwNcA
“Jack Monroe” is but a small part of a wave of lies and fakery that has swamped our culture for several decades. Not just online “grifters” such as Melissa Hadjicostas/”Jack Monroe”, “Supertanskiii”, Rachael Swindon (not as bad as the others, arguably), “Man Behaving Dadly”, Mike Stuchbery (antifa cheerleader and mentally-odd anti-free-speech type), “Dr.” Louise Raw, and many many others, but also political figures (prominent among which would be “Boris” Johnson, of course) and the msm-promoted “real world” “activists” such as Greta Nut.
It goes beyond even individuals, to beliefs and “causes”: “global warming”/climate change via “emissions”, “Black Lives Matter”, migrant-invaders as something somehow positive, “Ukraine”, “Covid”, “Covid” “vaccines”, UK “austerity” 2010-2023, “UK terror threat” from podcasters and tweeters such as Sven Longshanks and others, etc. The tendency of large-scale falsehood might be traced back to the still-flourishing “holocaust” and “anti-Nazi” farrago. History as mixed fact and fakery with, often, more fakery than fact.
Talking of “Sven Longshanks”, the political prisoner, his resettlement fund (to help him get back on his feet when he is released next year) remains open:
I just donated 20 British pounds to support Sven Longshanks. Chip in if you can!
“Jack Monroe” stands out from the other two mentioned because she is a fake front or facade, with nothing behind it except her appalling “recipes”. Maugham is a barrister, and had a career, apparently lucrative, in that field before becoming an online personality. Owen Jones too, was known as scribbler on socio-political issues before he became a kind of msm/online caricature of himself.
“Jack Monroe” is actually more than a mere fake and “grifter”; she is a classic criminal type, psychologically (in my admittedly “non-expert” opinion), and who in other circumstances might have been (again, in my “non-expert” opinion) a career criminal, terrorist, or even something worse. She strikes me as being a dangerous woman. I think that the police should (at long last) start looking at both her fraudulent activity and her repeated organization of harassment against her critics.
Needless to say, the BBC etc should not allow her onto shows such as Question Time (which publicity wrongly validates her).
I’m so sorry LG, Jack Monroe has just shown what a nasty, vicious, narcissistic person she really is and proven what we’ve all been saying for months, that she doesn’t deserve her platform and she’s a danger to others with her grifting. Look after yourself xx
Hello new people. You've probably seen a number of my Tweets about how I'm facing Jack Monroe, aka @BootstrapCook in court soon. Here's the full story:
I subscribed to her Patreon. She failed to fulfil the contract and didn't send out any rewards. I asked for my money back. She…

The worst of it is that, thanks to (LGBTQXYZ? Cocaine-abusing?) friends or contacts at the BBC, which contacts got her onto Question Time yesterday, “Jack Monroe” now has yet more msm “validation”, and many more ignorant mugs will probably be sucked into sending her cash via Patreon etc.
Having said that, and as Abraham Lincoln said, “you can fool some of the people some of the time but not all of the people all of the time“. I notice that the number of Patreon mug donors sending cash to “Jack Monroe” is, as of today, 404, less than half of the number donating last year, and fewer than were donating even a month ago.
Between this and Jack Monroe on Question Time it’s not been a great night for the promotion of criminality on national television.
The tweets above attracted a host of “Jack Monroe” admirers to attack the tweeters. The admirers tend to be men (sometimes also women) of a certain age, and who want to “white knight” for the fraud/grifter. Pathetic.
As blogged previously, I see few if any young people taking “Jack Monroe” at face value; also, few if any ethnic minority people. I have speculated in the past that the latter probably know too much about real poverty or struggle, and /or look upon the swill “Jack Monroe” puts out as “recipes” with disdain or horror.
What I find incredible about the naivety of so many on Twitter is that they have been applauding the mediocre soundbite-uttering of “Jack Monroe” on Question Time as if it were some brilliant exposition of the horrible flaws of the “Conservative” governments of the past 13 years. In reality, she said (from what I have seen on Twitter) nothing new, nothing at all.
Appearing on Question Time and tweeting a bit about the “Tories” does not qualify as (serious) “campaigning“, by the way.

Leaving aside the Martin Amis news (which for me was not in any way major), Britain started to go wrong in the Thatcher era of the 1980s, and started to slide steeper downhill from, particularly, the Blair-Brown years. The UK may be still a bit of a “toytown” or “poundland” dystopian police state, but it gets darker all the time. It does not even have the saving grace of most police states— low (real) crime.

Duncan Smith wants it to be 75. Above life expectancy in our poorest and most deprived areas. The Tories don't see why they should give our pension money back to us at all. #r4todayhttps://t.co/AiJFqrHbfU
“There is a myth that as a country we cannot afford our state pensions. And that myth is central to Iain Duncan Smith’s proposals to raise the state pension age to 75.
But there is a problem with the premise of IDS’s bright idea. The reality is that according to the OBR, public spending on the state pension is expected to rise by less than 1 per cent of GDP between 2017-18 and 2022-23.
In the even more distant future, the OBR forecasts that by keeping the current system in place, by the 2060s when those people currently in their twenties are drawing down on a state pension, our country will only be spending around 2 per cent more as a share of our GDP.
No government wishing to be re-elected will ignore the largest voting bloc in the country, therefore there will need to be some form of income support for this group. The cost increase is clearly not beyond the realms of manageability under current forecasts.
The poorest pensioners are the ones who are most reliant on the state pension – moving the goalposts is a callous response to a rise in poverty among the elderly. Under IDS’s plans, the elderly will have to work longer in an unforgiving job market typified by low wages and zero-hours contracts. Do we really want to condemn a 70-year-old to in-work poverty? It’s utterly cruel…
Serious government policy in the 21st century should focus on how we ensure everyone from cradle-to-grave shares in the wealth of our nation. A universal basic income, a shorter working week, and the maintenance of the triple lock system: these are the policies of tomorrow.“
[The Independent]
If implemented, a plan such as that suggested by Iain Duncan Smith, under present circumstances, would mean that people 65-75, i.e. at the age where most people now are receiving State pensions, and who are often managing long-term health problems, would be made subject to the ridiculous and shambolic, yet extremely repressive DWP regime started under Labour after 2005 and then made far harsher by “Dunce” Duncan Smith (his real name is plain “Smith”) after 2010.
I do not understand how Smith has lasted this long politically, being terminally thick, having falsified his CV several times, and having cost the State huge amounts via his half-baked programmes. That is not even taking into account his own outright frauds in respect of his MP expenses. Hundreds of thousands of pounds. I also do not understand how he has survived generally. He must be well-guarded.
That last in fact is a major reason why things are as they are in the UK: instead of MPs and ministers being afraid of the people, the poor British people are afraid of the cruel, corrupt, and freeloading MPs and ministers.
Something has to be done about the state of the UK. That much is becoming obvious to almost everyone. That, however, just begs the question, in a political milieu where the main System parties are very similar in policy terms.
Do Labour have any policies !?
Starmer has broken all is Leadership election pledges….
She is, in a sense, correct here too, sadly. Except that she wants the UK to become non-white (like her), and I (of course) do not.
The non-European, non-white population is exploding. Their birth rate is far higher than that of (real) British people, and of course there is the continuing migration invasion, not only via small boats crossing the Channel but also via so-called “legal” immigration. All in all, over 700,000 in the past year alone.
All System parties either support or do nothing to stop the invasion of non-whites into the UK. Meanwhile, idiots or malicious grifters of the Ash Sarkar type applaud our upcoming racial and national demise.
The laws re. free speech or, rather, repressing free speech, are now so harsh that I cannot say here what should be done with System political frauds, malicious groups (both Zionist groups and those who can mainly be described as their “useful idiots”), and other enemies of the people. My readers will have to read between the lines.

For me, socialism effectively died in 1989 (I tend not to use the poorly-defined “Left/Right” descriptors). Look at a mild version of socialism, that of the Labour Party in the UK. It veered between socialism and social-democracy in the 1956-1989 period, then chucked out its socialist elements during the 1990s, under Blair.
Look at Labour now. It is very very obvious that Jewish-lobby puppet Starmer will do nothing radical to help the poorer part of the society, but will try, so to speak, “to run the workhouses better”, and no more.
Ironically, Labour might have recovered some old-style socialism under Corbyn, had he stayed on, but of course the Jewish lobby finished off Corbyn and anyone supportive of him in Labour. Most of them have been expelled or stamped on hard enough to shut them up.
Labour’s “offer” to the voting public amounts to a possibly more efficient (maybe not even that) version of what the Conservative Party has been doing for 13 years.
Labour is doing well in the opinion polls by default, purely because the “Conservative” misgovernment is so bloody awful.
