20th November, 2023. X, YouTube, links, quotations. The cost of Israel-Hamas war to Israel. Israel was very popular as investment destination up to one year ago ie when Nethanyahu sought to weaken the Judiciary and lessen legal system. Stock Exchange fell and stocks went down too. Now add the impact of this war.

Quotations:-

=============

The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.

18 Nov 2023 #israel#israelpalestineconflict#economy For long, Israel has been seen as an oasis of stability in a volatile region. But the war in Gaza has come as a black swan event for Israel, which was holding up amid the global economic downturn. Thousands have lost their lives, properties and humans have been reduced to rubble, and the economy has taken a big hit. We also talk to Israeli economist Omer Moav for more perspective.

20 Nov 2023 “The Al-Shifa hospital…it’s sort of like Iraq and the WMD, the need to prove its case is very important to Israel.” Israel is unlikely to have “risked global opprobrium” by bombing the Al-Shifa hospital unless there was legitimacy to the claim that it’s built on top of a Hamas base, explains Times world affairs editor Catherine Philp.

Question? Hamas most often described as a “movement”. Terrorist groups eg even look to IRA pre Good Friday Agreement : one never heard of a centre as one would imagine in the UK war office. Mobility and cells and catching spies is more in line surely for Hamas too. Israel want to dismantle Hamas. We must also recall Iraq and WMD … propaganda is prolific

Speaking with Haaretz, Israeli reserve pilot Col. Nof Erez describes Israeli army’s response to Oct. 7 as “MASS HANNIBAL.” The Hannibal Directive orders the army to kill their own to prevent them being taken captive.

Fareed Zakaria is right: arresting  assets in the West, directing them to Ukraine, making russia bleed financially for its crimes would be the right thing to do. Morally, politically, historically.

The Israeli government deserves condemnation for closing all hospitals in northern Gaza. I just wish

@WHO

had been as outspoken while the Syrian government was deliberately bombing hospitals in opposition-held parts of Syria, as I often pressed it to be.
