Main Points from today - Israel - Gaza War - Biden Era

Long form post:  CNN reports that there are ten thousand Israeli Soldiers in Gaza, they are taking on Hamas, they are supported by Tanks and Airplanes.  The HAMAS terrorists are using the underground tunnels as their way to attack Israel.  ONE assumes the hostages are being kept in the tunnels, Israel had good news, they rescued a Israeli Soldier, while reporting that one of the hostages from the music festival was dead, Hamas has released a video of hostages under duress, they complain about the Israeli Government.  ISRAEL is at war, the PM is no longer dithering, that is leadership. 

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 5.44pm the following from the Israeli PM, its clear and stark, " Netanyahu rules out a ceasefire, saying 'this is a time for war'....“The Bible says ‘there is a time for peace, and a time for war’,” he continues, “this is a time for a war”....“A war for our common future. Today, we draw a line between the forces of civilisation and the forces of barbarism.”  "

Lets Get Real:

In 1940 the then PM refused to do a peace deal with Nazi Germy, he was under pressure from the appeasers in the Cabinet, thus the Israeli PM must carry through with his WAR PLEDGE, the advice of the US President is important, but there are Israeli Lives that were taken on the 7th of October, there are many foreign nationals also taken and others killed.  Israel has to defend itself a ceasefire helps HAMAS, they have to be destroyed, very much like the old USSR or Putin's Government Regime in Russia, they are EVIL, the world does not need advice from Russia on the action in Gaza, the Ukraine did not invade Russia.  This is the time for the West to support ISRAEL, it failed the Jews in 1930 and 40s, lets recall 1400 Israeli's were killed, the last death total of that level was the holocaust, thus Israel has to fight, whatever the UN or the EU says, odd bods at the best! 

Israel also hits Lebanon - Israeli - Gaza War - Biden Era

 Guardian - Live Blog: Reports in its 11.48pm post the following, " IDF strikes targets in Syria and Lebanon.....Israeli forces have struck targets in Syria and Lebanon, the country’s defence force has said. In separate tweets, the IDF said an aircraft had attacked Hezbollah targets in Lebanese territory, including “infrastructures for directing terrorism and military infrastructures of the organisation”, and that a fighter jet had attacked launchers in Syrian territory. It said both attacks were in response to launches from those areas into Israel.  "

Lets Get Real:

The IDF attack on Hezbollah might be the more important, as they attacked the infrastructures of Hezbollah in Lebanon, as the old saying goes, uses it or lose it, and Iran might have to react, the West should be on ALERT for any talks  between Iran  and Lebanon.  The Israeli - Gaza WAR could take months, Iran knows that if it has the bomb it is protected, if not Israel and the West might have a go to reduce the chance of Iran getting the bomb.   Hamas wants its people to stay in the North of Gaza, this will cause problems for ISRAEL and the US and UK.  Israel should thinking about releasing the video of October 7th to the World, to show how evil HAMAS is.  As for the hostages, the Israeli PM and POTUS should think about 444 days, that is how long the US Diplomates were held in Iran, it cost Carter his 2nd term.

Israel HITS Syria - Israel - Gaza WAR - Biden Era

Sky News - Live Blog: Reports in its 11.40pm post the following, " 

Israel says it has struck 'military infrastructure' in Syria...

"In response to launches from Syria toward Israel earlier this Sunday, an Israeli Air Force (AIF) aircraft struck military infrastructure in Syrian territory," the IDF said in a post on X, formerly Twitter.  "

Lets Get Real:

The Israeli - Gaza war could expand to include Iran's terrorist franchise groups in Syria and Lebanon, this could drag in the US, thus the reason the BIDEN OVAL has sent two aircraft carriers to the Middle East.  The US has warned Iran, to stay out, it really depends if Iran has got the bomb, if so trouble anyway, Israel and the US has made it clear it will never allow Iran to get the bomb, it would be a threat to the existence of Israel and a threat to the Middle East.   The question is will Iran allow Hamas to go down, and does it want to risk the same fate for its franchise group in Lebanon.   The time for an answer from Iran might come sooner than any one expects, even them, REAL POLITIC is a tough business, lets hope that the CIA and the NSA are on the ball in the US and the same for MI6 and CCHQ in the UK.  

Israel - Gaza War update - Biden Era

The Last few days have seen many stories from the Israeli - Gaza War, the Israel's IDF going in to the Gaza with tanks and troops then returning in the morning, over the past few hours ( the weekend  ) Israel has stayed in Gaza with tanks and troops and is taking out Hamas terrorists, there have been large demos against Israel around the WORLD, who knew Palestinians had such support, the most important is that the US and the UK supports Israel and its actions in Gaza.  It easy to do  demos, Guardian readers, odd bods such as Charities  and the LIBERAL LEFT turn out in droves, as expected.

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 11.29pm post the following showing on how UN Countries reacted to a vote for a TRUCE, " Many Western states publicly back Israel. The US voted against Friday’s resolution, while Canada and the UK abstained. The EU (which cannot vote as a bloc) expressed support for Israel, but its members are split. "

Lets Get Real:

As long as the US supports Israel it does not matter what the WORLD THINKS, Biden has no choice, he needs the Jews to vote for him, they are the base of the Democratic Party, the hard left and the Squad in US Congress do not represent American voters.  Also the Republicans on this issue, are on the right side, expect the Republican House to support extra funding for Israel, not for the UKRAINE, that is a different matter, and the Biden Oval does not have to the poll numbers to get US Congress to  combine  the vote.  POTUS should be out everyday stating that the US should support Israel and the Ukraine, the hard fact is that the President is to old, he is 81 shortly, 86 at the end of the 2nd term if re-elected.  Karma or fate has placed the one guy you do not want in the Oval at this time, God this blog misses Reagan and Thatcher.

POTUS warns Iran over threats to US troops in the Middle East - Israeli - Gaza War - Biden Era

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 0.03am post the following, " Biden warns Iran in rare direct message.....The White House says Joe Biden has warned Iran against targeting US personnel in the Middle East, via a rare message to Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.  "

Lets Get Real:

Israel and the US want to keep Iran out of the Israeli - Gaza War, also they want to make sure that Iran does not allow its allies in the Middle East to start attacks should Israel go in for a tough land invasion of Gaza.  The thought of Biden dealing with the Ukraine War and major regional war in the Middle East would age POTUS and bring him a critical reaction from the left wing of the Party.   On the other hand Israel cannot allow itself to be told by the US if and when it goes in to Gaza, let's recall that October 7th was their 9/11, fifty years after the last major war in 1973.  One does think that Karma is putting Biden behind the 8 ball, think of all mistakes he has done in the past when it comes to foreign policy, on doubts that Biden thinks that, look at his mistakes with Afghanistan.  It is matter of waiting for the ISRAELI Government to decided when is the best time for an invasion to take out Hamas.

HOUSE has a NEW SPEAKER - Biden Era

Sky News: Reports "  Mike Johnson: Louisiana Republican elected as Speaker of US House of Representatives...While not the party's top choice, the deeply religious Mr Johnson has few foes and an important backer in former president Donald Trump.  "

Lets Get Real:

The race to be the new Speaker has been a farce, but the end Donald Trump has got someone he can support and has not peeved his colleagues off, thus the whole Republican Majority has supported him, the Democrats has a perfect target, he is against abortion, gay right and is funded by the gas and oil industry.  The attack ads will start Now, the White House has to work out how to combined funding for the Ukraine with support for Israel on to one bill that can pass the Senate and the House, they might get half of what they want, funding for Israel but the Ukraine might be tougher.  One hopes the new Speaker is given some Honeymoon period, the new Speaker is new to Congress and has not served as a Committee Chairman, thus learning on the job. 

Israel delays INVASION of Gaza on US request - Israeli - Gaza War - Biden Era

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in 23.51am post the following, " Ground offensive delayed, says BBC partner network CBS...We've just heard from CBS News, the BBC's US broadcast partner, that Israel is delaying the ground offensive into Gaza.....Earlier, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel was preparing for a ground invasion of Gaza, but he would not say when it would happen, adding it would be reached by consensus.  "

Lets Get Real:

It is reported that the US has requested a delay as to get its  FORCES ready should Israel attack Gaza and terrorists cells attack the US as a response.   This delay can only be a for a few days, the Israeli Army has made it clear that it is ready, a leadership is about taking decisions, that is the role of a successful leader, a leader willing to take risks.  In 2003 Tony Blair was offered an out to the US invasion of Iraq, he di not take it, and has paid the price since.   The Israeli PM is known for being a dither by nature, so he has to get his mind in to the WAR LERADERSHIP ROLE, ISRAEL will not wait forever for him to make the final call, whatever the US President wants, Israel has to stand tall and be tough, with the enemy and its friends. 

Two More hostages released - Israeli - Gaza War - Biden Era

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 9.10pm post the following, " Nothing Hamas says about the hostages in its hands should be taken at face value.....It’s clear the group is trying to win a public relations battle over the fate of the hostages, and perhaps aiming to sow doubt in the minds of Israelis by suggesting that their government is not doing everything in its power to secure their release.  "

Lets Get Real:

Hamas is doing the above to seed mistrust of the Israeli Government and create discord with those that support Israel, they want to force the US to prevent Israel sending in the troops, the number POTUS should recall is 444 days that the Tehran held the US Embassy staff in Iran as  hostages.  They play on people emotions, you need cold hard thinking when making decisions on international politics.  The Israeli Army has recalled three hundred thousand troops to the Colours.  The story thread in Israel is that they should take down the main terrorist group in Lebanon that is supported by Iran, think 1941, when Japan attacked the US, the Roosevelt Administration wanted to fight Germany, lucky for FDR, Hitler declared WAR on the US a few days later.  In other words Israel has to get lucky, and hope that Iran makes a big mistake when it comes to attacking US troops in the region.  The Israeli Government is not as lucky as the UK was in 1941, then the US had FDR as President, its Biden in the Oval now,  a weak old man.  Also seeking a 2nd term.  Hamas wants a ceasefire, then it MIGHT release 50 hostages.  They are playing games, the innocents are the pawns, Israel must not play their game. 

Main Points from Israeli - Gaza War - Middle East - Biden Era

There have been so many stories coming out of the MIDDLE EAST, the Israeli Army is being asked by the  US as reported by CNN to delay its land invasion of Gaza.   This is playing in to what HAMAS wants, they released two Americans, just to place pressure on the Biden Oval.  Before the hostages were release there was Biden's speech from the OVAL OFFICE, the Israeli Government cannot have its battle plans decided by the US and EU.   Let's recall that the Biden record is not great when it comes to Foreign policy.   On other hand, more hostages OUT  allows ISRAELI to gain intelligence on the tunnels that HAMAS has, it is a matter of time and Israel has to act soon, it can't just allow three hundred and sixty thousand troops and tanks to just stay on the border of Gaza and Lebanon.  Thus today:

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 8.19pm the following, " Iran's foreign minster warned Israel and the US that the Middle East may "go out of control" if Israel military action continues - and blamed the US for providing military support to Israel..  US Secretary of State Antony Blinken responded to Iran with a warning against any "escalation" of the conflict  "

Lets Get Real:

SO FAR, Iran is the big winner of this war so far, the proposed deal between Israel and Saudi Arabia is on ICE, the Arab Street has come out against the US and Israel.  Iran wants to return to the Middle East back to the relationship that existed before the Trump and Biden Administration sought and a better relationships in the Middle East.  There is no proof but one can see the HAMAS attack on the 7th October was planned from Tehran, one presumes Hamas agreed to the attack if IRAN came out and said they would support them no matter what.  Thus Israel faces WAR with Hamas and Lebanon, the major terrorist group there is as backed by Iran.  The French and Dutch leaders are coming next week to Israel, then the Israel might invade Gaza after they leave.  Troubling Days ahead.  This blog will not be surprised to see HAMAS pull at the heart string of the US and Europe, by the release of more hostages, they have 2012, women, men, children and babies.  Hamas is EVIL , like Putin's Russia. 

Israeli - Gaza War Update - Middle East - Biden Era

Sky News - Live Blog: Reports in its 4.34pm post the following, " 

Israeli defence minister tells troops: 'You will soon see Gaza from inside'.....

Israel's defence minister Yoav Gallant has told troops at the Gaza border they will soon see Gaza "from the inside", his office has said, in what appears to be a suggestion the ground offensive is nearing.  "

Lets Get Real:

It seems that the green light had been given, its just a matter of when, you cannot keep hundred thousands of soldiers on red alert, they will be edgy enough, just waiting, one presumes that the Israeli Government is waiting for the French President to come, this blog is shocked that former President Trump has not turned up, he will hate being out of the limelight, but then he has enough legal problems.  Israel could be waiting for the speech from the Oval Office, before going, allowing the Biden OVAL to take credit for sending in food, medicine and water in to Gaza.  There has been delay on that front, it looks like it will be Saturday, the Presidential Address might need to be redrafted  to make that point.   The Gaza - Israeli War and the danger it might spill over to other countries will be at its height after the Israel goes in to Gaza, Iran must be contained.

Israel hits Syria and Lebanon - Israeli - Gaza War - Middle East - Biden Era

Guardian - Live Blog: Reports in its 00.43am post the following, " Israel strikes Syrian govt position in south: NGO....The raid coincides with an announcement by the Israeli army on X, formerly Twitter, of strikes against “terrorist positions” of Hezbollah – an ally of the Syrian regime and enemy of Israel – in Lebanon, which borders Golan.  "

Lets Get Real:

The Israeli's are moving to remove any threats should they take Gaza.   One assumes that the Israeli Government is waiting for the diplomatic shuttling to end, the UK PM is coming to the region, so they will have to wait in till that is finished.  The Israeli people will be wondering if the Israeli PM is gun shy, there are times to wait, and then there are time for action.  IF Israel is going to annex  Gaza, then this is the time, the terrorists will think that Israel has lost its nerve, thus more threats form the terrorists.  Also if the Israel is going to take on Iran, better to do it before they have the bomb, afterwards would be tricky and very dangerous.  As a clever UK PM was asked by a junior Minister what could go could wrong in good times, the PM said, Events, Events dear boy, Events. 

Israeli - Gaza War Update - Middle East - Biden Era

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports  the following in its 11.34pm post, "  Israel strongly denies any involvement the hospital explosion in Gaza, and President Biden backed their claim, saying it was supported by "data" he had seen from the US defence department  "

Lets Get Real:

The Arab Leaders and the Arab Street does not care, it blames ISRAEL  no matter what, the US President stated that the US Department of Defence has confirmed that the rocket was from Islamic Jihad  or the other team as stated by POTUS.  At some point Israel must act, it cannot keep three hundred thousand Soldiers on ALER, it makes them weaker.  There was a story that Israel might annex Gaza, well if that is the plan, its about time to start, quicker to start and then quick to finish.  The Terrorist group Hamas must be destroyed, it is cancer to close to the heart of Israel.  President Biden is to give a speech on Gaza and the Ukraine War.  It seems that he is going to ask for a 100 billion dollars from the US Congress.  Good luck with that, the House does not have a Speaker yet.  Also linking Gaza - Israeli War to Ukraine might be a problem, Trump will be critical, it will need Democratic votes.

No Summit Meeting in Jordan - Israeli - Gaza War - Middle East - Biden Era

Sky News - Live Blog: Reports in its 10.27pm post the following, " 

Jordan cancels summit with Biden...

Jordan has cancelled the summit it was due to hold with Joe Biden and Egyptian and Palestinian leaders in Amman tomorrow....The White House has not yet commented on the cancellation of the summit.  "

Lets Get Real:

The King of Jordan has to worry about the Arab Street after the bombing of Gaza and the latest bombing of a Hospital.  One expects Egypt to also cancel the Summit, in other words what is the point of the President going to the Middle East.  The President has shown that he supports Israel, the big crunch will should Israel invade Gaza, that might drag in Iran and Syria.  The OVAL has made it clear who they support by sending in two aircraft carriers, the new USS Gerald Ford and the  Eisenhower.  Iran has to be warned off, the World does not want a regional WAR in the Middle East, that would help Iran, Russia and not the West. This could be a long year of WARS.

The FOG OF WAR - The Gaza Hospital Attack - Israeli - Gaza War - Middle East - Biden Era

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 9.57pm post the following, " Israeli prime minister says 'barbaric terrorists' behind hospital blast....Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been quoted by the Reuters news agency as saying "barbaric terrorists" are responsible for the blast at the hospital in Gaza...He rejects Hamas's claims that the Israel Defense Force carried out the strike.  "

Lets Get Real:

This is the FOG OF WAR, Israel is blaming the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, another terrorist group in Gaza and Hamas is blaming Israel for the attack.  The effect so far is that the Prime Minister of the Palestinians  in the West Bank has cancelled a meeting with the US President in Jordan. The White House will be flooded by the press wanting to know what they think and what does US intelligence think, that is going to take time.  There could be trouble in the Arab World tomorrow, while Biden is in Israel, it might be a good idea to have only a Israeli part of the tour.  Israel has to ACT on Gaza no matter what Biden wants, the security of Israel is at stake.  This meeting tomorrow  with the Israeli PM could define the rest of the Biden Presidency. 

Biden to TRAVEL to Israel - Middle East - Israel v Hamas in Gaza - Biden Era

Sky News - Live Blog: Reports in its 1.09am post the following, " 

Biden to travel to Israel....

President Biden will travel to Israel on Wednesday as fears increase about the war with Hamas expanding into a larger conflict.  "

Lets Get Real:

This might be a massive mistake, Biden since Afghanistan has showed he does not understand foreign policy, as the former Defence Secretary Robert Gates stated in is memoir that Biden has not been right on foreign policy in forty years and when a staff member told him that he had agreed with a Biden point, the Secretary went over to where he agreed with Biden to see what wrong path he has taken.   The Biden Oval wants a new Iran deal, that is not on the cards, the best that the Oval can hope for is that Iran stays out of this mess in the Middle East.  The US should not try to contain Israel, its their Country after all and they were attacked on the 7th of October, it was there 9/11.  

199 Hostages in Gaza - Middle East - Israeli vs Hamas - Biden Era

 BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 11.41pm post the following, " Israel has confirmed at least a 199 hostages were taken to Gaza. A spokesperson for the military wing of Hamas says there are "about 200 to 250" Israeli captives being held in the enclave  "

Lets Get Real:

The reason that the IDF has not invaded Gaza could be the hostages and pressure  from the Biden Oval and of course the threat from Iran to take action.  The problem is that you cannot keep three hundred thousand men on ALERT, you either get going on go for a very much smaller action.  Hamas cannot be allowed to get way with the murders of two weeks ago.  There must be JUSTICE, the fate of the hostages is important but it can not rule that Israel does next, that is harsh, IF Israel does not act then other terrorists groups will try the same thing in the West.  President Biden is weak and is being lead by the US State Department, that would be a mistake, its like the FCO in the UK, cannot be trusted, the West has to stand tough with ISRAEL. Otherwise the terrorists win, that does not help the World.

Jim Jordan the NEXT Speaker ? - 2024 Candidate/2024 General Election

The Hill: Reports "  Jordan clinches Speaker nomination in GOP’s second go at the gavel...Jordan, currently chair of the House Judiciary Committee, earned 124 votes to win the nomination  "

Lets Get Real:

Former President Trump will be happy, he endorsed Jordan, and Jordan is in charge of the Committee investigating Biden for impeachment, of course he needs to get 217, the question is, it has to be asked, is the Republican Majority broken, does ever member see himself or herself as the next SPEAKER.  The DEMOCRATS are very united, they should win the HOUSE in 2024, the Republicans have made themselves a laughing stock, the have showed how not to run the people's HOUSE. There could be more fun if Jordan does not get to 217.

One Hour Left of Israeli Deadline - Israel - Gazza War - Middle East

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 7.33pm post the following, " Netanyahu: Counter-offensive only the beginning....Benjamin Netanyahu has just addressed the nation and said that Israel's counter-offensive in Gaza is "only the beginning". "

Lets Get Real:

There is an hour and a bit to go before the Israeli deadline to the people of the Gaza runs out, the usual bods are complaining about the deadline, from the EU to the liberal left.  The Israeli air force dropped leaflets to warn the people, one is not expecting the Israeli Forces to go in on the HOUR, Light is better for the invasion, no matter what Israel did, the left would complain, the Israeli Government has no choice after Saturday and the Hamas still throwing rockets at Israel.  The people of the Gaza had years to throw out HAMAS and they have not, thus this is a matter of JUSTICE, the Hamas terrorist group has to be removed, once and for all.

Two Front War faces Israel - Middle East - Israel's 9/11

Sky News - Live Blog: Reports  " Israel-Gaza latest: Israel planning and prepared for 'two-front war' if Hezbollah enters fray, Netanyahu adviser says...Israel is ready to fight a "two-front war" if Lebanese militant group Hezbollah enters the conflict, an adviser to the prime minister has told Sky News. Meanwhile, Hamas has fired missiles at an airport in Tel Aviv, shortly after a BA flight was diverted away over security fears.  "

Lets Get Real:

The big is question is what does Iran want, will it allow its franchise operator Hamas to do down fighting in Gaza or does it want to open a 2nd front in Lebanon, and make the Israeli - Gaza WAR even a bigger war.  The Biden Administration has just sent the Aircraft carrier Gerald R. Ford in to region as  a warning to Iran and is also sending in the Eisenhower carrier fleet to the region.  Does Iran want to divert the World's attention from its nuclear plans and thus a regional war in the Middle East, also the Russians will want to divert the World attention from the Ukraine, the axis of EVIL, Russia, Iran North Korea, China might think this is the perfect time to act, with China going after Taiwan and North Korea coming out a nuclear armed power, as in having a working ICB.  The US voter does not have confidence in POTUS when it comes to foreign policy, he is seen as WEAK, would you trust POTUS with multi crisis events?   

BBC Shows True COLOURS over Hamas Terrorists - Israeli - Gaza War - Middle East - Israel's 9/11

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 8.13pm post the following " BBC defends policy not to call Hamas 'terrorists' after criticism..... The BBC has defended its decision not to describe Hamas militants as "terrorists" in coverage of the recent attacks in Israel.  "

Lets Get Real:

The BBC needs to understand, that giving Hamas the equal billing of Israel is taking a side, Hamas is a Terrorist group, it killed and butchered people in Israel, it has become the new IS, it must be destroyed and removed from the face of this earth.  This is no time for the BBC News, Guardian, New York Times to take its high handed liberal view that it is the fault of the West.  Israel was attacked, this is their 9/11.  The Israel Forces must react and remove Hamas, what ever the cost.  One doubts Churchill or Thatcher would tolerate this from the BBC, it is was about time it was SOLD, someone who understands right and wrong, as the BBC have lost the plot.  Sometimes you have to take a side, and thank god you have no choice.

Majority Leader Steve Scalise the NEXT Speaker of the House - 2024 Candidate/2024 General Election

The Hill: Reports " Scalise secures GOP Speaker nomination....House Republicans on Wednesday nominated Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) to be the next Speaker, sending his candidacy to the House floor following Rep. Kevin McCarthy’s (R-Calif.) stunning ouster last week, multiple lawmakers told The Hill.  "

Lets Get Real:

CNN reports that the Chamber vote will not happen today, as the future Speaker does not have the votes, also he was not endorsed by former President Trump.  This is a bad image compared to the firm support given by POTUS for Israel and the moving of military it to support Israel.   As the BBC notes that 1,200 Israeli and others were killed by the Hamas attack on Saturday, while Israel readies itself for a ground attack on Gaza.   The NEW Unity Government is ready for a two front war as reported by Sky News.   Israel must not allow itself to be controlled by the West, already we have seen the UN and the EU go weak on the issue, what do these people expect, Israel to turn up at the Gaza border with an arrest warrant and ask for Hamas to give it self up, after the deaths over the weekend, Israel must stand firm, it was attacked and must take out Hamas, once and for all.

Hamas NEW threat to KILL Hostages in Gaza - New Israeli and Gaza War - Biden Era

Sky News - Live Blog: Reports the following, " Israel-Gaza latest: Israeli PM warns 'any place that Hamas operates will turn to rubble' - after threat hostages will be killed if Gaza is bombed without warning...Hamas says it will start executing an Israeli captive for every new civilian house bombed without warning in Gaza; Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu says his country's response to the incursion will "change the Middle East"; reports say around 1,500 people have died on both sides.  "

Lets Get Real:

Hamas terrorists have killed around nine hundred citizens of Israel and taken between 100-150 hostages, they started this NEW WAR, they must pay the price, the Israeli Army should go in to Gaza and clear house, force HAMAS in to the SEA warn, Iran to back off or face a nuclear reply, ISRAEL might have to do that anyway, if Iran has got the bomb.  Mossad will have to answer questions, why its eyes were off the ball, was it Egypt that gave the only warning. How come the NSA in the US and GCHQ in the UK were not on ALERT.  This is a new DAWN in the Middle East, we will see more deaths on both sides, Let's pray for a quick Israeli for victory. 

Gaza and Israeli War - Middle East - Biden Era

Sorry about delay in writing on the New War in the middle East, the events have been going so fast

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 9.27pm post the following, " Biden confirms 11 Americans killed....US President Joe Biden has confirmed at least 11 Americans have been killed in the Israel-Hamas conflict....."Sadly, we now know that at least 11 American citizens were among those killed — many of whom made a second home in Israel," he said in a written statement from the White House.  "

Lets Get Real:

This is why Biden should never have been President, he is weak, he has just allowed Iran access to its own money, 6 billion dollars in return for American hostages in Iran. The Tehran Government say that they are sending that money to Gaza to help the people, in other words to help Hamas, a terrorist group.   The Israeli Government needs to go in strong in Gaza, take and throw Hamas out, that would be a favour for Gaza on the whole, and keep the Oval Office out of it, Biden will just want to appease, that is his nature.  Iran has to be warned to keep out of the fight or face drastic reaction from Israel.

Rep. Jim Jordan has the support of Trump - Speakership vote - 2024 Candidate/General Election 2024

BBC News: Reports " Trump endorses Jim Jordan for House Speaker.. Donald Trump has endorsed staunch conservative Congressman Jim Jordan's bid to become the next Speaker of the House of Representatives.  "

Lets Get Real:

There was talk that Trump would not mind being temporary Speaker of the House, that has faded with this news from Trump.  Jordan would follow the whims of Donald Trump and will go ahead with the impeachment of President Biden should Trump want it.   Thus far a lot of smoke from the impeachment inquiry but no hard facts as CNN keeps saying.  The Republican nomination fight is looking like a coronation for Trump, Haley or DeSantis have to take the fight to Trump, take him down before Iowa and New Hampshire.  Otherwise it is a re-match between Trump and Biden. It will lead to the same result, a Biden win, the Ukraine needs American money and weapons to win. 

Temporary Speaker throws former Speaker out of her Office - 2024 Candidate/General Election 2024

BBC News: Reports " Interim House Speaker 'evicts' two senior Democrats from Capitol...Nancy Pelosi and her long-time deputy Steny Hoyer have been ordered to leave their workspaces in the US Capitol by acting House Speaker Patrick McHenry.  "

Lets Get Real:

The Democrats might have won a short term victory, but look at the results, the leading Democrats have LOST their private offices, the barbarians, the extreme right of the Republican will be in control of the House.  A weak Speaker in debt to the Democrats have been a better option.  The House has to approve funding for the Ukraine, Kyiv needs the funds, also as CNN reports that arms from Iran that the US has taken will be sent to Ukraine.  As stated previously Iran is giving drones to the Russians,  so arms from Tehran will be supporting both sides.  Tehran will not be happy and could take more US hostages as a reaction.  The vote for a new Speaker will be next Wednesday, it will be interesting to see who stands.

The bid to oust the House Speaker starts - 2024 Candidate/General Election - Biden Era

Guardian: Reports "  Matt Gaetz introduces motion to oust Kevin McCarthy as House speaker....Far-right congressman files motion after expressing outrage at speaker’s bipartisan effort to avoid government shutdown  "

Lets Get Real:

This is all about Matt Gaetz wanting to get rid of the Speaker, because they do not like each other, its personal.   Matt Gaetz did state that he was worried about the national debt, he has a point, but everyone knows its personal hatred, there for he has only a few supporters, but all he needs is 5 members of the Republican majority to support him, then the Speaker it out, as long as Democrats support the motion, will they sit on their ands or save the Speaker because of the Ukraine.  politics at this micro level in fun, no one can be trusted!! 

Update:  

The Speaker was ousted , the first time in history, 8 of fellow Republicans voted against him and the Democrats took short term pleasure in getting rid of the Speaker, the results is that the House is on pause, and Former Speaker Pelosi has lost her private office.  One of the candidates to replace McCarthy has already said that he opposes further funding for the Ukraine.  As Spiderman says, with great power comes responsibility, the Democrats would have been better off with a weakened Speaker in debt to the Democrats.  Thus the Democrats and Republicans have failed at basic politics. 

Will the US House pass funding for the Ukraine ? - 2024 Candidate /General Election 2024

Sky News - Live blog: Reports in its 11pm post the following, " 

Biden 'fully expects' renewed Ukraine funding

"

Lets Get Real:

One can see an outline of a DEAL, POTUS get his funding, but the Democrats do not help the right wing of the Republican Party get rid of the Speaker, and the deal should include border protection, that might be a hard thing for the left to agree too.  Biden is an old hand at making DEALS, lets  see how the sausage is made on the Hill.   Biden must be aware that funding could be an issue in 2024, he has to stress it through 2024, its about Democracy and defeating Putin in the Ukraine and preventing WW3 over Poland and the Baltic States.  Also Biden needs to get his polls up, otherwise he could lose to Trump, that would be massive disaster to the US and Western Europe.  Its late for the Biden Campaign to get its adverts out, Putin might try to help Trump, by stating he would agree peace terms with Trump in the White House, that might find favour with the US voters.

Trump in COURT TOAY - 2024 Candidate/General Election 2024 - Biden Era

BBC News: Reports " Defiant Trump turns up at $250m New York fraud trial to blast 'scam'....... Former President Donald Trump has attacked a judge and prosecutor in a day of courtroom drama as he attended the opening of a fraud trial that could threaten his business empire.  "

Lets Get Real:

Of all the Courts that Trump faces, its this civil trial that gets to him, his image is his money and the success he has had in business.  The prospect of jail time does not seem to unnerve him much, that will never happen, the job of the Secret Service ,is to protect the President and the former President for up to 10 years.  The Secret Service could never allow Trump to be taken to a prison, that would make him a martyr on the right wing of the Republican Party, and the Democrats would pay a heavy price, there in no Gerald Ford in the White House who could  stop these Federal Trials with a stroke of his pen.  The 2024 match up looks like is it on, in less one of the Republican candidates can take Iowa or New Hampshire in 2024.  Trump would a disaster in a 2nd Term, in less US voters want to put two fingers up to the press and the liberal elite, it could happen.
