GAZA WAR DIARY: 15 SEPTEMBER 2024

I have to say, I cannot understand why the world tolerates the Houthis, those barely-out-of-loincloth savages chewing psychedelic gat all day long. They use the weapons supplied to them by Iran (and I have no doubt at all there are Iranians among them actually behind the launching of their missiles, since the Houthis are illiterate morons). For almost a year now, they have been crippling international shipping lanes. These people should have been shut down the minute they destroyed their first ship! And yet, nada. No one seems to mind. And here they are today emboldened to launch a super sophisticated hypersonic Iranian-made missile at Tel Aviv. The Houthis claim it can travel 2050 kilometers in 11.5 minutes. What is it I don’t get? Their spokesman said: “The missile caused great panic among the Zionists.” Er, not really. None of us even knew about it until after it exploded mid-air harming no one and nothing.

Most of the time we in Israel laugh at the Houthis. It’s hard not to. They make all these grandiose threats, and report all these wild, invented successes which everyone knows is ridiculous. But this morning, when the shrapnel from the Iron Dome attempting to shoot down the missile hit a train station outside of Modi’in (which is where my son and his family live) we were not amused. But neither did it disrupt our day. Kids went to school. Parents went to work.

Nevertheless, I am looking forward to the wrecking ball coming the way of these savages, and hopefully from more than one direction. If only there was a President in the White House who was not on permanent vacation with dementia, the same man all my Democratic Jewish friends were so gung-ho to elect, the way they are now trying to elect his witless Vice President, so she can be the first Communist heading the United States of America. Kamala Harris, aside from being equally mentally challenged, is morally challenged.

Here is an example. Her tax on unrealized capital gains. This means that people who bought a house with their hard-earned money, and struggled to keep up their mortgage payments are now going to be hit with a whopping tax in the tens of thousands of dollars for the amount that house is now worth, even if they don’t sell. Most of them will probably wind up homeless.

You see how that works? You punish hard work, and give out people’s financial gains to those who never bothered to buy a house or pay a mortgage. That is just un-American. That is my problem with Kamala. She is un-American. She wants the country that her Communist university professor father has been preaching about in his subversive classes all these years. But I do not. And neither should any other American, because that spells the end of the American dream, for which people all over the world have been willing to risk their lives to obtain. It’s the end of democracy. Everything they say about Trump, they are guilty of in spades.

I’ll tell you one thing: Trump may be many unsavory things, but he is not a Communist. And spare me your horrified rebuttals. This is the truth and everyone knows it. I’m not even going to talk about what it would mean for Israel, because if that is not obvious at this point, nothing I can say will enlighten the “true believers.” I’ll just say this: we wouldn’t have been hit by the Houthis if Trump had been in the White House. For shame.

There were also forty detected launches from Lebanon towards the Upper Galilee and the Golan Heights. Some were intercepted, some fell in open areas. No one was harmed.

According to Abu Ali, Gazan sources report that Mahmoud al Jazar, an engineer and resident of Rafah, was shot two days ago by Hamas operatives and left to bleed to death in the Mawasi area following negative comments he wrote on social media against Hamas. Al Jazar, who is seen in old photos holding a rifle and also taking part in the riots of the return marches in 2018 at the border of the Gaza Strip, started working at UNRWA as an engineer in 2021. In recent months, he has been outspoken in his criticism of Hamas. For example, he wrote that Sinwar after being released from prison should have gone to get (medical) treatment and not control 2.5 million people. Abu Ali wonders “ if UNRWA and the UN will issue a special condemnation against Hamas for this, or if their ire is only raised when Israel kills UNRWA people?

Israeli continues its successful attacks both in Lebanon and Gaza, eliminating more terrorists. I won’t bother elaborating.

In the meantime, in Jordanian elections, the Islamic Labor Front Party, which is part of the radical Muslim Brotherhood, are celebrating tripling their strength by winning 38 seats in the Jordanian Parliament. The last election they won only ten. Worrisome. We certainly don’t need yet another front.

    Naomi is spot on regarding American politics (and has every right to her opinion) and I am in complete agreement with her. She doesn’t even live in America, yet she knows more about what’s really going on than most Americans do. Most Democrats don’t even know what she stands for. If Harris/Walz get in, our country is doomed.

  2. Sd

    You should stay out of American politics since you don’t live here.Your comments about Harris are rude and terribly misguided. Trump is one you cannot believe and will throw Israel under the bus if G-d forbid he wins

  3. Sara

    If all of you who post here are so pro Hamas Harris, why do you follow this blog?
    I am in complete agreement with you Naomi.

  4. Mary Lou S

    I find it pathetic that many (many with trump derangement syndrome) want to kill president trump. Okay, so you don’t like him. But goodness gracious. Okay, so you like the dodo Harris. Then you hate America. I support trump and despise Harris but I would never want to have someone hiding in the bushes with an Ak/47 waiting for her. The world is sick and America is being overtaken by evil. We are becoming a pagan country and I fear the abandonment of our Judeo-Christian ethics. I am an American Christian, I will NEVER vote for a communist. I believe in the power of G-d and I pray daily for the Israel as well as all Jews around the world. I have a great love for the Jewish people. They are our brethren.

    Naomi “shame” on you to describe Kamal as witless.
    The senile Biden selected her to be his insurance policy.
    Now the madam Kamala selected that clowen Tim Waitz
    to be her insurance policy. (The guy remindes me of Don Rickles.)

    • Liz Kittredge

      Guy –Kamala is not only witless –i.e. yellow school busses; venn diagrams — she is a shameless LIAR. She spouted debunked lies at the debate. She has no principles,/morals –raised money to free incarcerated criminals who burned and vandalized Minneapolis. Worse of all (that was a hard pick) she is a PHONY. Her “values haven’t changed” but she has flip-flopped on every issue important to average hard-working people. Bernie Sanders explained–she is only saying what she has to say to get elected…doesn’t mean them. Not sure why I took time to answer you who misspelled many words–made no sense.

    I am definitely pro-Israel and hope that Israel will not stop until Hamas is eradicated and Israelis are safe.
    It is hard to believe that anyone who has seen Kamala in ongoing videos would believe that Kamala Harris would be better than Donald Trump. Admittedly Donald Trump is not afraid to say whatever is on his mind, but if you know from people who have worked around him, he is very fair and kind. He loves America and our Constitution.
    Kamala Harris doesn’t say anything she believes and lies constantly. Even Bernie Sanders said that Kamala said in the debate whatever she needs to say to get elected.
    Please don’t vote for Kamala and Tim Waltz. They do not support Israel.

  7. Ellen Calderon (Solomon)

    Someone tried to kill trump again today on his golf course here in Florida every one here where I live in an assisted living community knows and no one care, nor do I

    • Liz Kittredge

      Ellen –We know you don’t like Trump–you comment here often. Obviously you are completely clueless about everything Trump has done for Israel. You need a lot more assistance than you are getting in your assisted living community.

  8. Audrey

    Ellen – Trump! Doesn’t matter if people can’t stand his personality- he is the standard bearer of freedom and democracy in the USA and around the world. Kamala is not a bumbling idiot but she IS dangerous. Even Bernie Sandrrs said the other day that she hasn’t lost/changed her Marxist principles- she’s just saying what she needs to say in order to get elected. In other words- she’s lying!

  9. MERALEE GOLDMAN

    NAOMI—You’re way too smart to repeat the Russian propaganda about Kamala Harris which is from Mr. Trump’ rambling speeches. Love you,, my friend, though we may deeply disagree about American politics! Wishing, alway, for peace!, MeraLee

    • Liz Kittredge

      Meralee Poor gaslight …Meralee “Russia, Russia..” AGAIN? Kamala is a socialist–actually communist…left of Bernie Sanders voting in the Senate. And anti-Semitic: She skipped Netanyahu’s speech to Congress to meet with sorority sisters. Then did her –“I am having it BOTH WAYS with –“….Israel has the right to defend itself–but what about the Palestinian civilians..”? Last–WHO rambles about yellow school busses and venn diagrams? WHO will pay for her give-aways? YOU–Merall..and me ..and all honest taxpayers…WHY doesn’t Kamala explain? Because she can’t.

  10. Roberta Meyerson

    It is impossible to reason with die hard democrats, mostly because of never Trump syndrome. I suggest sending articles you have read by noted experts. That is a gentler approach. I wish that more Israelis and American would think like you!

    • Donald A Goer

      You can be pro-Israel but not insane. Of course Hamas should be destroyed, but anyone who saw the debate between Harris and Trump and still decides to vote for Trump, is as deranged as he is. Trump is a danger to the USA and the rest of the world. America will always have Israel’s back, no matter the party that is in the White House. To advocate for Trump as you have been, is a disservice to all who believe in Democracy. I won’t say what I feel about Netanyahu and you should not interfere with American politics.
