Haaretz on Netanyahu’s desperation
Despite his best efforts, Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu keeps bumping his head on a polling glass ceiling that refuses to crack. His Likud party is stuck in the low twenties in projected Knesset seats, a far cry from the 32 seats it won in 2022, and his coalition bloc is being overtaken by the opposition camp – led by Gadi Eisenkot – which is nudging the magic parliamentary majority number of 61 seats.
So the premier has decided to go into an encyclopaedic form of election hyperdrive, assembling, agitating and exploiting every possible front to extract more votes while, Steve Bannon-style, flooding the zone to inundate, confuse and exhaust the opposition. And he seems to be taking inspiration from the most ravenous incarnations of AI.
Just in the last day or so, Netanyahu has sent Israeli warplanes to bomb Idlib in Syria, southern Lebanon and the Gaza beachfront. His government has released tenders for construction in the E1 area of the West Bank, which everyone knows is aimed to thwart the territorial contiguity of any future Palestinian state. He has allowed settlers to continue intimidating Palestinian families in Qusra, while not even rapping the knuckles of his national security minister, Itamar-Ben-Gvir, who called to kill “30 or 40” Gazans a day.
He celebrated the retrieval from Syria of the body of the last remaining IDF casualty of the 1982 battle of Sultan Yacoub, Yehuda Katz, with the stunningly hypocritical claim that he has always been “committed” to bringing Israel’s missing and hostages home, as if he can memory hole his serial torpedoing of negotiations to release the suffering hostages held by Hamas.
He praised U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s announcement that the U.S. would sanction the president of the International Criminal Court, which just happens to have a warrant out for his arrest on charges of war crimes. He engineered a sycophantic list of Likud candidates, mocking its internal elections process while fittingly rewarding the architects of his assault on Israel’s democracy. …
But for Netanyahu, 69 days before his fate is decided at the ballot box, the instant gratification of bombs and demagoguery easily beats the slower burn of diplomacy and strategy. The lives and safety of Israelis and Palestinians, together with international law and whatever remains here of political norms, are just collateral damage.





The gloomy, negatively charged Scorpio Moon weighs heavily on the soul in a very tangible way. Until then, themes such as fear, paranoia, secrecy, mistrust, crime, control, power, and sexuality will dominate.
Don’t let the gloomy mood drag you down and pull you into brooding. Cheer yourself up with light poetry, humor, and uplifting music. In 10 hours, it will finally move into optimistic Sagittarius.
Astrologer and Capricorn Norbert Giesow from Kiel, born in 1961, urges his audience to engage in serious soul-searching through his daily interpretations (AI-generated audio track available in English).

Incidentally, Kiel—like hundreds of other cities—was almost completely destroyed on multiple occasions in the 1940s by Anglo-American terror bombings targeting its civilian population in the service of their Jewish masters.
As we all know, this was never prosecuted as a war crime, but has instead been distorted to this day as an “act of liberation.” What is called “Kiel” today bears no resemblance to the original. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Bombing_of_Kiel_in_World_War_II
The Holocaust Industry is a billion-dollar business, not just for the filthy rich Hollywood Jews. A few hundred thousand bucks can easily be made from yet another in the endless stream of sensationalist “books”—which also stirs up greed among non-Jews. And this also gives rise to disputes over who gets a slice of the pie. https://archive.is/zF5Zi
“Remember that Stroop lived in the shadow of the gallows, and this situation encourages people to talk.” [sic] “My father tried to talk to publishers in the late 60s, but the book was banned, totally banned.” [why?]
“It was not possible for Moczarski to take any notes in prison and he had to write the book from memory.” “My father built a kind of castle in his head. He could write in his head. He said once that for long-term prisoners the ability to hear is different and you learn to remember.”
One thing is certain: This work is a must-read of the utmost, most compelling credibility!
