what a mess. I’m not qualified to offer a solution. But I would like to say more about this situation and some of the kinds of things that all related to bring this about. However, I’m still unable to devote my 100% attention to the Avenue and I don’t want to do this topic a disservice (I hope to be back in the saddle in about a week or so).
Too bad we can’t wait that long.
Thank you for reading today's post. Have an InterStellar Day! ~PrP
Prior to 1948 the land of Israel did not exist. Over the history of time countries have come and gone. This ended during the Assyrian and Babylonian eras. The only reason the country exists today is due to the United Nations to create a controlled allied area in the middle east for the forward need when necessitating the disruption to other oil controlled middle east dictators and the continued fuel for maintaining the industrial military complex.
The notation of Israel in the bible notes a people and area rather than a country itself. It is the land of the people of the previous historically known gods of “IS”is, “RA”, and “EnliL” This is the biblical representation of the people of Israel.
You are probably correct, but whatever their grief, decapitating babies is an act too far.
What do you expect from a cult that uses religion to legally be pimps and pedophiles. If a people are okay with killing and maiming their women for not dressing “right,” then other people they have disagreements with can expect no mercy.
And let’s not forget their “honor” killings. I mean, damn, you have no honor if you are willing to kill someone to maintain yours.
What do you think about those Hama supporting niggers at Harvard?
Publish the unedited pictures of the massacre, including all those beheaded women and babies. Show the world the true horror of what was done. Do not hide it or diminish it. If anyone wants to support what they did, let people see what they want to support. Then allow them to show why and how they defend it.
You do know that Hamas knew the Jews would come into Gaza to avenge their barbarity? They have such diabolical plans for the Israeli army. They don’t care what happens to their people as long as they get to kill Jews.
Hamas is no different from ISIS. Obliterate them and stop appeasing its main source of weapons, training, and finance, the Islamic regime in Iran. They should be dealt with separately. The head of the snake is the regime in Iran.
Israel’s military has discovered unspeakable horrors in an Israeli community that was attacked by Hamas on Saturday, including dozens of dead babies, some with their heads chopped off, Israeli media reported.
According to local Israeli outlet i24News, Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldiers moved into Kfar Aza, one of the communities Hamas terrorists invaded early Saturday morning, and discovered about 40 dead babies, some decapitated — highlighting the brutality of the invading forces.
The IDF were removing the bodies of victims found in the area when they found the children’s remains. Israeli soldiers are attempting to use bones to identify the victims, according to the report.
“It’s not a war, it’s not a battlefield. You see the babies, the mother, the father, in their bedrooms, in their protection rooms, and how the terrorists killed them,” IDF Maj. Gen. Itai Veruv said, describing the scene, i24News reported.
“It’s a massacre.”
The Hamas leader who planned this lives in Qatar, where he is protected by the Qatarian Government. We will get him.

JOKE:
A monkey is sitting in a tree, smoking a joint, when a lizard walks past.
The lizard looks up and says “Hey! what are you doing?”
The monkey says “Smoking a joint, come up and join me”
So the lizard climbs up and sits next to the monkey and they have another joint.
After a while, the lizard says his mouth Is ‘dry’, and that he’s going to get a drink from the river.
At the riverbank, the lizard is so stoned that he leans too far over and falls in.
A Crocodile sees this and swims over to the stoned lizard, helping him to the side.
He then asks the lizard, “What’s the matter with you?!”
The lizard explains to the crocodile that he was sitting in the tree, smoking a joint with the monkey and his mouth got dry and that he was so wasted that, when he went to get a drink from the river, he fell in!
The Inquisitive crocodile says he has to check this out.
He walks into the jungle and finds the tree where the monkey is sitting, finishing a joint.
He looks up and says “Hey, MONKEY!”
The Monkey looks down and says
“FUUUUUCK DUUUDE HOW MUCH WATER DID YOU DRINK?!”

A blonde stormed up to the front desk of the library and with a screaming voice said, “I have a complaint!”
“How can I help you?” said the librarian looking up at her.
“I borrowed a book last week and it was horrible!”
Puzzled by her complaint the librarian asked “What was wrong with it?”
“It had way too many characters and there was no plot!” said the blonde.
The librarian nodded and said, “Ahhh. So YOU must be the person who took our phone book.”
Joke:
A large group of Russian soldiers in the border area in 1939 are moving down a road when they hear a voice call from behind a small hill:
“One Finnish soldier is better than ten Russian”.
The Russian commander quickly orders 10 of his best men over the hill where a gun battle breaks out and continues for a few minutes, then silence.
The voice once again calls out: “One Finn is better than one hundred Russian.”
Furious, the Russian commander sends his next best 100 troops over the hill, and instantly a huge gunfight commences. After 10 minutes of battle, again Silence.
The calm Finnish voice calls out again: “One Finn is better than one thousand Russians!”
The enraged Russian commander musters 1000 fighters and sends them to the other side of the hill.
Rifle fire, machine guns, grenades, rockets, and cannon fire ring out as a terrible battle is fought…
Then silence.
Eventually, one badly wounded Russian fighter crawls back over the hill and with his dying words tells his commander:
“Don’t send any more men… it’s a trap. There’s two of them!
Christopher Columbus’s later years were filled with triumphs, hardships, and controversy. After his historic voyage in 1492, Columbus made three more journeys to the Americas. However, his later expeditions were marred by challenges and complaints. Settlers accused Columbus of mismanagement, favoritism, and imposing harsh labor requirements. They claimed that he neglected their needs and concerns while granting privileges and positions to his own circle of associates.
Additionally, there were allegations of mistreatment and exploitation of the indigenous populations. The encomienda system, implemented by Columbus, allowed Spanish settlers to demand tribute and forced labor from the indigenous communities. This led to widespread abuses, including the enslavement and mistreatment of indigenous people. Reports of violence, forced labor, and inadequate provisions under Columbus’s rule contributed to the complaints against him.
Furthermore, there were concerns regarding Columbus’s accumulation of wealth and personal trading ventures. Some settlers accused him of monopolizing trade and hoarding riches for his own benefit, instead of distributing resources more fairly among the settlers.
In response to these complaints, Spanish authorities took action. In 1500, Columbus was arrested and brought back to Spain in chains, accused of maladministration and abuse of power. However, after a lengthy legal process, he was eventually released and cleared of some of the charges. Although he was not reinstated as governor, a new governor was appointed to replace him in the colonies, reflecting an attempt by the Spanish Crown to address the grievances of the settlers and indigenous populations.
Despite his removal from power, Columbus still managed to maintain some influence and continued to engage in legal battles and petitions in an attempt to regain his titles and secure the financial rewards he believed he deserved. The response of the Spanish authorities can be seen as a complex balancing act, acknowledging some of the complaints against Columbus while not imposing severe punishment or complete condemnation.
That was a very good observation about women and peace.
I am wondering, what’s the Aliens opinion about the situation in the Gaza and Israel?
Humans, killing other humans and then expecting, no demanding that others feel sorry for what the humans whose loved ones they killed do to them for revenge.
How are the Hamas different from serial killers? What excuses murdering women and children or unarmed teenagers or young men? What excuses taking women and children hostages? What excuses parading naked women hostages in the street and who are the people that would line up to jeer and spit upon them?
This is something one would expect from men who treat their own women as property to be used as they see fit. Now those same men are asking for others to feel sorry for the plight they brought upon themselves by their barbarism and butchery. Nothing justifies killing babies, raping women, or stripping them of their basic dignity.
If this were a situation we had to answer, we would wipe out the Hamas to a man. As for the people, since they elected those mad dogs and they condone their actions, then they do not have the right to expect us to stop our pursuit of those mad dogs because of their presence.
No, we will not intentionally harm them, but if their proximity to the mad dogs they elected to represent them causes them harm, they brought it upon themselves. Humans claim to have a code of War. Yet, they condone the actions that break that code.
Everyone has the right to resist oppression. But that does not give them the right to commit any atrocity in the name of that resistance. Women, children, and non combatants should never be harmed if it can be avoided. To deliberately go after them is the greatest example of cowardice and depravity there is.
The subhuman creatures who did it should be put down like a dog with rabies. The dog may have been your favorite pet, but now that it has rabies, you are required to prevent any harm it may do to others. Your love of the dog must not be superior to the prevention of harm to others by the dog.
Hamas has shown that they are without the basic human consciousness, or conscience to be allowed to exist in the same space of unsuspecting human beings. Simply put, they should be put down as one would any mad dog.
We couldn’t care less. Animals will do what animals do. That’s why you are food. If only those aliens who argue that humans have sentient qualities, would look at the savagery, brutality, and uncivilized behavior of the Hamas as an example of the human race, they would accept our logic that you are but animals mimicking sentient behavior.
The proof is in how so many of you humans work so hard to justify what the Hamas did. If that doesn’t work, you resort to denial that they even did it as if the murder of unarmed festival attendants and the taking of women and children as hostages is okay as long as you can deny that they murdered and slaughtered babies. So what part of that savagery was okay?
For certain what act or acts of barbarism a person admits that he/she is okay with tells you what type of human being they are. In our opinion any acceptance of deliberate attacks upon unarmed combatants, especially women and children is itself an admission by that person that he/she is a depraved human being, basically a wild animal walking upright and pretending to be able to perceive or feel the angst of the human beings around them.
Who would want to be at the mercy of creatures like that? And like the cowards they are, they are the first to beg for mercy when they are charged with paying the price for their savagery. Hence we will be inundated with pleas for mercy for their women and children while they are themselves using those women and children as shields to avoid being apprehended or killed for the murders they committed during their savage rampage in Israel.
Fuck the Jews.
Yeah, “fuck” us. There you go asking the world to intervene. Where were you when you sent you dogs to my country to kill us? Where were you when your mad dogs were parading our women in your streets? Oh, yeah, you were lining up to spit and taunt them. Now you sick motherfuckers are begging for mercy. I have lost my sister and two cousins to you hypocritical bastards.
Fuck you
You sick piece of shit. Now that you have to pay the piper for the indiscriminate murdering of my family and friends, you cry like the cowards you are. We are coming for you. Your pedophile Mohammed or god allah won’t save your evil asses.
Yeah, fuck us, We are going to bomb you disgusting murdering animals into oblivion .
The Jews need to put the two state solution into operation immediately before the rest of the Arab world stomps their ass.
Who would support someone who says they don’t have the right to exist? I say keep those animals in a cage so they can be watched.
You murdering bastards came into my country and murdered unarmed teenagers, young adults, women and children. You beheaded babies, and threw babies into fires. You riddled their bodies with bullets. Now you sick mutherfuckers are complaining about your women and children suffering. Fuck you! If Egypt doesn’t want to allow you into their country that should tell you that even Arabs don’t trust your murdering animals.
Quit begging the world to come and save your sick asses. The more of you that die the better off the world will be. You support Hamas, so die with them. But you think that if you bitch and cry foul enough the world will come to your aid. You do your dirt and then pull out your women and children as shields. All the while willing to kill other peoples’ women and children.
Fuck you, fuck you!!!! Your murdering Hamas captured my sister and raped and tortured her. You have killed and taken captive many of the friends that attended the festival we attended. Fuck you. You didn’t attack the IDF, you gutless mother fuckers attacked homes and murdered our elderly, our women, children and babies. You were armed with automatic weapons and rockets, they were unarmed. Kiss my ass. You will be hunted down and dealt with. Using your women and children as shields won’t save you. We are coming for your murdering asses!!!!!!!!!!
What about the cowards that don’t have the moral clarity to call what the Hamas did an act of terrorism? I am a catholic and an Arab, what Hamas did is without a doubt evil.
Bitch, we will come for you infidels.You will be next when we finish off the Jews. Allahu Akbar.
Wow!Tell us what you really think here. And to add to this the Internet is full of fakes. The existence of these language-dubbing tools is another reminder that the era of deepfakes is really here. Essentially Lipdub creates its own kind of deepfake: The result is a video of someone saying something they never said with realistic voice and lip movements.
Another tool I reviewed from HeyGen creates an avatar of a speaker that, once trained, can be used to say anything typed into a text field. In that case, a user has to send along a video indicating consent before the company will create the avatar.
My rule of thumb is that any powerful technology offered in a safe, constrained way by responsible actors will soon be offered by less scrupulous players for a wider range of more problematic tasks.
CBS News CEO Wendy McMahon says the network has sifted through over 1,000 videos of the war in Israel — and only 10% are usable.
Why it matters: “There are many reasons why, but some of those reasons are directly tied to misinformation. They absolutely are,” McMahon told Axios’ Sara Fischer at the Axios BFD yesterday in New York.
The broadcaster is investing in its own AI capabilities — and in combatting misinformation, she said in her first public interview since taking the helm of CBS News in August.
Threat level: “The reality is that there will be an influx of deep fakes and misinformation flowing into our newsrooms at a scale, at a speed, at a level of sophistication that will be staggering,” she said.
The war in Israel is already providing a case study on how this can play out: The EU has warned TikTok, X and Facebook about disinformation spreading on their platforms.
We suspect that global war is coming. Is there anything we are allowed to do to prevent it?
For years, Israeli officials have worried about the threat of Hamas in the Gaza Strip. Still, they viewed a full ground invasion of Gaza to be too dangerous and costly to try. Many Israeli soldiers would die. The widespread killing of Palestinian civilians would damage Israel’s global reputation. The invasion might fail to dismantle Hamas.
Last weekend’s attacks by Hamas — killing more than 1,300 people, mostly civilians — have changed this calculation. Israel’s leaders and many of its citizens seem to have decided they now have no choice but to invade, and the military has ordered more than one million people to evacuate northern Gaza. Israel’s goals are to prevent Hamas from being able to conduct more attacks and to reestablish the country’s military credibility.
But the same challenges that kept Israel from invading Gaza before have not gone away. The war, as a result, has the potential to become another case study in the strategic difficulties of urban warfare, as the U.S. experienced in Falluja, Iraq, nearly two decades ago, Israel did in Lebanon during the 1980s and Russia has in Ukraine.
“It’s one of the most complicated fighting scenarios that you can have, It makes for bloody, awful conflict.”
Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel’s leader, has vowed to “crush and destroy” Hamas. But many analysts expect that the group will continue to exist, in some form, for the foreseeable future. What, then, would qualify as a success for Israel?
It would involve a Hamas that was so weak it could no longer govern Gaza, could no longer fire missiles into Israel and could no longer launch terrorist attacks that look anything like last weekend’s. To accomplish that, Israel is planning an invasion larger and longer than its previous campaigns into Gaza since Israel ended its occupation there in 2005.
Israel has mobilized 360,000 troops — more than 3 percent of its population — and cut off power, fuel and water to Gaza. That lack of resources has created dire problems for Gaza residents — and will also make it harder for Hamas to operate. In the meantime, Israel will try to kill or arrest Hamas fighters, destroy its supply of major weapons like missiles and close the tunnels where the group hides.
But Gaza’s densely populated streets will make the mission extremely difficult. Hamas fighters will be able to hide in alleys and buildings and will be difficult to distinguish from civilians. Civilian deaths, in turn, may damage Israel’s international support. Hamas’s leaders, as Tahani Mustafa, an analyst at the International Crisis Group, told us, “were definitely trying to draw Israel into a conflict.”
What Israel’s worst enemies — Hamas and Iran — want is for Israel to invade Gaza and get enmeshed in a strategic overreach there that would make America’s entanglement in Falluja look like a children’s birthday party. We are talking house-to-house fighting that would undermine whatever sympathy Israel has garnered on the world stage, deflect world attention from the murderous regime in Tehran and force Israel to stretch its forces to permanently occupy Gaza and the West Bank.
The Israelis do have advantages, though. “They probably have detailed computer images of every major building in Gaza, and they can use robots and drones to scout those buildings, find the Hamas defenders and kill them,” David Ignatius of The Washington Post noted. “Many of the terrorists who kidnapped Israeli hostages were recorded on video — and it’s a safe bet that every one of them will be a target for Israeli revenge.”
Some experts believe that Hamas’s weekend attacks were more successful and deadlier than even Hamas’s leaders expected. Either way, Hamas almost certainly understood that the attacks would provoke a large Israeli response, and have prepared for it.
In the past, urban warfare has helped insurgent groups beat back stronger militaries. In the first battle of Falluja, in 2004, Iraqi militants were able to hold onto the city by fighting from a maze of buildings.
Hamas militants will probably use a similar approach in Gaza. They will hide in booby-trapped homes and tunnels, ready to lob grenades at Israeli troops. They will also likely dress as civilians, as they have in the past.
“It’s almost inevitable that Israeli strikes on Hamas targets will hit or wound civilians,” our colleague Steven Erlanger, who has covered the Middle East for years, said on “The Daily” this week. “And it’s partly because Hamas deliberately lives among them and hides its munitions among them and in mosques and in hospitals. I’ve seen these things for myself. And I don’t expect them to be any different this time.”

Finally, Hamas has the grim tactical advantage of holding at least 150 hostages. Israeli officials need to worry about the killing of these hostages with each attack. Hamas has also threatened to execute a hostage each time an Israeli airstrike hits Gazans in their homes.
Among the few confident predictions experts make are that the coming invasion will be brutal, and will include major surprises.
“That a major operation is coming is hardly in doubt,” The Times explains, in a preview of the likely ground invasion. “But there are tactical arguments over how any operation should start, whether it will begin massively or with raiding parties, and how best to coordinate Israel’s overwhelming strength in land, sea and especially air power.”
We know who gave the humans the knowledge about how their brain cells work. You will be disciplined. We are recommending the highest discipline. Who knows what these animals will do with that information.
