Missiles still hitting Israel’s cities, bases, stock exchange, diamond exchange – many not even triggering warning sirens
Daylight in Israel this morning revealed further devastation from Iranian missiles overnight – and continued strikes this morning, with many of the missiles not even triggering warning sirens before they struck. Israelis continue to share the footage despite the regime’s ban on doing so:

Iran’s state news agency reported that this morning’s missile strikes were aimed directly at IDF C41, the occupation army’s ‘Command and Intelligence’ HQ, and at a military intelligence facility in the Gav-Yam Technology Park. In another example of the Israeli regime’s ‘every accusation is a confession’ syndrome, one of the targeted sites sits right next to the Soroka Hospital in Be’er Sheva, southern Israel – Israeli civilians and medics being used as human shields, though this will not, of course, be reported as such in UK ‘mainstream’ media. Israel’s accusations of militia command centres in and under hospitals in Gaza have been repeatedly shown to be false.

Tel Aviv’s Stock Exchange building was also damaged in this morning’s strikes:
Palestinian journalist Wissam Nassar, who shared the above Israeli-shot footage on his Instagram, said:
Iran has struck the stock exchange in Tel Aviv — an attack on the heart of Israel’s economy. The message is clear: nowhere is immune.
The Diamond Exchange in Ramat-Gan, Tel Aviv, was also hit as Iran targeted Israel’s economy:
The attacks have caused panic among the colonial population. A propaganda trip from the ‘Birthright Israel’ programme, which is designed to encourage more Zionist Jews, particularly from the US, to emigrate permanently to Israel, collapsed in chaos as 2,800 participants chose to flee by boat. The right-wing ‘Jewish News Syndicate’ (JNS) reported that the:
13-hour voyage by [Birthright Israel] cruise ship from Israel to Cyprus was conducted under the protection of the Israeli Navy.
Many Israeli settlers were not offered the same protection as they also fled to Cyprus by boat, a decision treated with derision by anti-apartheid and anti-genocide observers:
Others, primarily Poles, organiser buses to flee to Egypt and then back to Poland:
The daylight attacks came after the Iranian bombardment continued through a night that had begun with mass penetration of Israel’s defences and damage to Tel Aviv from misfiring ‘Iron Dome’ defence missiles. Fisherman out at sea captured on of the later huge barrages:

To paraphrase Air Marshal Arthur ‘bomber’ Harris
“They sowed the wind, and now they are going to reap the whirlwind,”
My understanding of the timeline of events of that period are that the British were concerned about the level and amount of damage being inflicted on RAF fighter bases across southern and eastern England.
As a result, the political decision was taken by Whitehall to bomb civilian targets in Berlin in order to enrage the Germans into reciprocating. Taking the heat off the RAF fighter bases by getting the Germans to switch to civilian targets in London and elsewhere in the UK.
The point being that it was the British who were the first to start deliberately bombing civilians, not the Germans.
The Iranians are being more canny.
As for the Germans today, nothing seems to have changed over the past eighty years:

As far as i was always taught, prior to the nazis turning their attention to bombing British cities, (AKA the blitz) they’d had no problem with levelling European ones (think Rotterdam May 1940, for example).
It was after a raid on Berlin (with the intention of hitting the government and military quarters, but hitting civilian areas – bombing technology wasn’t so advanced back then) that hitler went all Billy big bollox and fully turned his attention from the airfields to our cities.
…Which turned out to be some sort of perverted blessing in disguise (and brought about a much-needed relief to Dowding and fighter command).
A far cry from today, where there are satellite and laser-guided technologies available, ensuring pinpoint accuracy, rather than the indiscriminate overkill of 2000lb bombs needlessly dropped on gaza that we’ve witnessed from the rodents.
“The point being that it was the British who were the first to start deliberately bombing civilians, not the Germans”.
Unless you count Guernica!
Guernica had completely slipped my mind (for shame) 😕
Good post, Tim 👍
According to UK mainstream media, it’s only Iranians moving out. They are simply putting out PR releases from Bibi’s office.
“They are simply putting out PR releases from Bibi’s office.”
They are not the only ones adopting this dubious practice:

They always claimed they wanted a place to feel safe in and that was the reason for settling in Israel, now they don’t feel safe there any longer they are running back to places they said they didn’t feel safe in. You couldn’t make this stuff up!
Boss post, Merv!
(And boss name to go with it’s context 👍😋)
Thing’s can only get better for Iran what a pleasure it is to see the zionist scum get a taste of their own medicine i wonder why they are not singing anymore about destroying Gaza or starving children
Yep.
I’d it just me or is bluerinsed nenny white as a sheet?
Mustn’t be getting much of a tan wherever he’s skulking…
I’ll post that again…properly this time.
Is it just me or is bluerinsed benny looking as white as a sheet these days?
Mustn’t be getting much of a tan wherever he’s skulking…
I mean….look at these two freaks’ contrasting complexions. Urgh!!

Really does neither any favours being seen next to each other.
It’s great to see the Zionists getting a pasting.
BUT
Don’t cheer too loudly – If USA gets directly involved, Iran could still be on the receiving end of some pain.
God bless Iran !!
God damn USA and Israel !!
It’s great to see the Zionists getting a pasting.
BUT
… But they haven’t had a pasting. They’ve been scratched by the cat after poking it with a stick, and now they’re squealing like the rodents they are; begging daddy to kick poor mog. 😕
400,000 Palestinians killed (Harvard) by Zionists.
£400b hit on illegal Israeli Occupation Force economy since Nov 23 (on FT calculations).
Can’t gloat even when Israel is getting a bit of a come uppance (and people are dying)- they have been captured by
Zionism.
But can’t help thinking – “Live by the sword……………..”
I heard it’s costing israel $300m per day. That’s $2.1bn a week. Almost $105bn a year.
So when are you gonna call THAT largesse in – O! Orange protection racketeer??
…And what have they got you want? Is whatever it might be actually worth the hundreds of billions??
I sincerely doubt it. Unless it’s the entire strip…
Meant almost $110 billion per year.
Zionist Israel wants to expand into a ‘Greater Israel’ and as well the West profiting from arms sales, they want Gaza’s land, oil, gas & a new canal in The Levant+other Arab land+the West wants to gets its snout in the profits trough.
Perhaps over a million will die for Western profits?
As an old saying goes: What do we think of Western civilisation?
“It would be a good thing.”
But a free, multi-ethnic Democratic state of Palestine from the rivers to the sea could do all of the above to benefit world trade & its diverse citizens.
So why do the Lightweight Grotesque Western politicians always use violence
to achieve their political ends?
Perhaps they as the true ‘Little People of the Planet’ know no better?
The Greater Israel Project may not be going quite to plan, seeing as the Amalek are fighting back quite effectively.
As Damo observes here:
……and Danny Haiphong here:
Damo’s report on what is at present a trickle of Israeli’s from Josep Borrell’s Garden joining those from Borrell’s jungle as boat people refugees raises some interesting questions.
Not least of which being that if this modern day Exodus of the chosen people fleeing the Promised Land and abandoning their almost eighty year Lebensraum project increases in the same way as similar cases – Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, Afghanistan – and similarly washes up on European shores, what type of narrative we will see from rabid and racist right wing media (Gibberish News, Daily Heil et al) and the dog whistle Reform Corporation?
Will they be welcomed with opened arms like the Ukrainian refugees have in Ireland and elsewhere across the EU? Or will they receive the same scapegoating treatment from these sources as those from Borrell’s ‘Jungle’?
