IDF discovers Nasrallah’s half a billion dollar money bunker beneath Lebanon hospital


 IDF spokesperson Daniel Hagari announced that Israel’s military has uncovered a money bunker worth half a billion dollars belonging to Hezbollah’s deceased leader Hassan Nasrallah underneath a hospital in Lebanon.

The store of money was discovered underneath the Al-Sahel Hospital in Dahieh, Beirut, and was used as Nasrallah’s hiding place during emergencies.

Hagari said that Israel’s military will not strike the hospital.

However, hospital director Fadi Alameh has denied the facility has any connection to Hezbollah and has urged the Lebanese army to guard the site.

According to a N12 report, the money is used by Hezbollah to fund its activities and much of it has been diverted from funds intended for the Lebanese public.

“This bunker is deliberately placed under the hospital and on both sides of it,” Hagari said. “You can see the buildings under which the entrance shafts to the bunker are located.”

“This money could and still can go to rebuilding the state of Lebanon. This money had been intended to go exclusively to arming the terrorist organization Hezbollah and had no other destination,” he added.

Hagari said the IAF will continue to monitor the compound.

He continued, “We call on the citizens of Lebanon, the Lebanese government, and international institutions – do not allow Hezbollah to keep terrorist funds under a hospital. Even in the coming hours, we will continue to attack Hezbollah targets throughout Lebanon, including in Beirut in Dahieh.”

The IDF also reported it carried out airstrikes against Hezbollah’s banks and financial institutions used to launder money and fund terror attacks.

The Al-Qard al-Hassan Association (AQAH), often referred to as Hezbollah’s “bank,” is technically a charitable association.

Israel apparently struck 20 of AQAH’s 34 branches in crucial Hezbollah strongholds, including Beirut, Tyre, Sidon, and Baalbek, on Sunday night.

In comments to The Press Service of Israel, one senior figure in the Israeli intelligence community described AQAH as “one of the largest centers of economic power for the Iranian proxy.”

The Secret of Bibi’s Unacknowledged and Historic Popularity

 

It was strange to watch Fox News’ Martha MacCallum yesterday refer to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s “unpopularity” in Israel. McCallum is a straight-shooting journalist. So how is it that she is unaware that Netanyahu is the most popular prime minister Israel has had in ages?

Direct Polls is Israel’s most accurate polling company. It was the only one to accurately call the 2022 Knesset elections that returned Netanyahu and his Right-Religious bloc to power. Over the past year, Direct Polls accomplished what was previously considered impossible: It conducted uniformly accurate polls of much smaller local government elections.

Benny Gantz resigned from Netanyahu’s government in June, Netanyahu steadily rose in Direct Polls tracking polls—leading Gantz and Opposition leader Yesh Atid Party head Yair Lapid by double digits in head-to-head matchups. In the intervening months, the gap between Netanyahu and his rival has grown steadily.

On Sunday, two days after Israel eliminated Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, Direct Polls published the results of its latest tracking poll for Channel 14. It found that for the first time since Oct. 7, the parties comprising Netanyahu’s governing coalition have an outright majority in Knesset seats. If elections were held today, the government would be re-elected.

Major Security Breach: Seven Israeli Jews have been exposed as *Iranian agents* during the war.

 

 Seven Israeli citizens from northern Israel and Haifa have been exposed as *Iranian agents* during the war.
The seven include a deserter soldier, two minors!

They allegedly photographed critical military bases, including Nevatim and Ramat David Air Force bases, the Kirya compound, and Iron Dome battery sites.

Additionally, the suspects were given strategic maps from Iranian handlers, including the Golani Training Base, *which was attacked by a UAV two weeks ago.*

On Friday, the prosecution will file charges for serious security offenses.

Iran launched many of its missiles in the early October attack at targets identified by this group. 

Each target marked for an Iranian strike was photographed by the suspects. 

Even *after the attack*, they were sent to assess the damage and report whether the missiles hit the targets or missed, providing feedback to their Iranian handlers for improvement.

JUST IN!!!!!!

It has been released for publication that Israel’s Shin Bet, the Police’s Lahav 433 unit, and IDF’s Intelligence Security Department have uncovered a network of seven Jewish-Israeli citizens, including a deserter soldier and two minors, working for Iranian intelligence. The group, based in Haifa and other northern towns, gathered sensitive information on IDF bases, energy infrastructure, and Iron Dome systems, all for hundreds of thousands of dollars in cryptocurrency.

Over the last two years, under the guidance of Iranian agents known as “Alkhan” and “Orkhan,” the suspects executed espionage tasks such as collecting intel on military installations, including the Nevatim and Ramat David airbases, IDF HQ in Tel Aviv, the Golani training base, and Iron Dome batteries. 

The group also conducted surveillance on Israeli citizens. Investigators believe this information could have directly contributed to missile attacks. The suspects even used advanced equipment provided by their Iranian handlers to carry out their tasks.

The plot’s discovery has highlighted the growing threat of Iranian intelligence exploiting Israeli citizens to carry out espionage and terror activities.

 Israeli security officials stated that the group’s actions compromised the nation’s security at a time when the country is already engaged in conflicts on multiple fronts.

 A senior Shin Bet official commented that the network’s actions caused serious harm to national security, as they transmitted extensive sensitive material, including photos and videos of strategic sites across Israel.

A police spokesperson added, “The scale and severity of the suspects’ actions are among the most dangerous Israel has ever faced. They knowingly engaged in acts that endangered the state and its citizens for financial gain.”

Indictments against the network members are expected to be filed by Friday, as the case once again underscores Iran’s relentless efforts to recruit Israeli citizens for espionage and terror activities. Israeli security forces vow to continue their efforts to expose and counter Iranian infiltration, holding those involved accountable to the fullest extent of the law.

"Harris will impose a weapons embargo on Israel." Bernie Sanders

 


*"Harris will impose a weapons embargo on Israel."*


Jewish Senator Bernie Sanders, known for his criticism of Israel during the war, told CNN that he believes Kamala Harris will accept his proposal to impose a weapons embargo on Israel due to the war in Gaza.


Douglas Murray Sits on Sinwar's Throne ...Sinwar's Last Seat!



It is only a few days since evil Hamas mastermind Yahya Sinwar was killed in a building in Tel Sultan, Rafah, deep in the south of Gaza.

It was the area that geopolitical genius Vice President Kamala Harris said that the Israel Defense Forces should not enter.

Thank goodness their leaders ignored her. Because as they destroyed his tunnel system and fought their way house to house through Gaza for a year, this was where he was finally found.

On Sunday, The Post was given exclusive foreign media access to the site where Sinwar met his end.

I went in with the IDF along the southernmost part of the Gaza Strip, along Gaza’s border with Egypt. Here huge Egyptian watchtowers overlook the border. It was under this border that Hamas was for years able to smuggle rockets, guns and other weaponry.

As we made our way along what is known as the Philadelphi corridor, we finally came upon Rafah.

The city is destroyed. Hardly a building is left unmarked by the scars of war. Many homes have been blown open along the sides.

Many have the marks Hamas leaves for other Hamas members to tell them they have booby-trapped the building. Many multi-story buildings have crumpled like a deck of cards from airstrikes after the IDF told civilians to leave the area.

It is a scene of unbelievably intense fighting.

After Sinwar, the ICC and Sen Schumer Stand Exposed

 



The death of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar has left many so-called moderates in grief. The Palestine Liberation Organization’s executive committee, led by President Mahmoud Abbas, offered condolences on Sinwar’s “martyrdom,” calling the mastermind of the Oct. 7 massacre a “great national leader.” Does anyone think this group, which the Biden Administration would have rule postwar Gaza, would thwart terrorism?

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan also saluted Sinwar—while receiving Iran’s foreign minister and Hamas’s top terrorists-in-suits for meetings. Another day in the life of a NATO ally.

Hardest hit by Sinwar’s death, however, should be Karim Ahmad Khan, the prosecutor of the International Criminal Court. Recall that Mr. Khan had claimed to be evenhanded by seeking arrest warrants for a trio of Hamas leaders—Yahya Sinwar, Ismail Haniyeh and Mohammed Deif—alongside Israel’s Prime Minister and Defense Minister.

The moral equivalence was offensive, but now that all three Hamas chiefs have been killed, Israel has stripped Mr. Khan of his fig leaf. He is prosecuting Israelis alone for their defensive war to free hostages and defeat the death squads who want to repeat their Oct. 7 attack.

There was never any chance of Sinwar standing trial in The Hague or being deterred by the prospect. While an ICC indictment means something to a democracy like Israel, it is meaningless to terrorists who have no respect for international opinion, and already live in hiding to escape being killed as illegal enemy combatants under the traditional rules of war.

Mr. Khan knows all of this. He rushed to seek arrest warrants, before seriously investigating or even talking to the Israelis, as he had promised U.S. Senators he would, for its effect on Israel. When Mr. Khan was dangling his threat, the goal seemed to be to deter Israel from entering Hamas’s stronghold of Rafah. After Israel went in, Mr. Khan made his announcement to try to stop the tanks.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu proved him wrong by safely evacuating Rafah’s civilians. Then Israel uncovered tunnels to Egypt, hostages and now Sinwar in Rafah. The Hamas No. 1 seems to have been flushed out of his tunnels by Israel’s military pressure.

Mr. Khan was wrong about Rafah, as were President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, who said she had “studied the maps.” They blocked arms to Israel over it. But Rafah’s centrality to Israel’s mission and to the chance of peace in postwar Gaza is now clear.

Yet the White House is still protecting the ICC. Over Mr. Biden’s objections, 42 House Democrats joined Republicans in early June to pass a bill sanctioning the ICC. The measure likely could pass the Senate, but Sens. Chuck Schumer and Ben Cardin have done the White House’s bidding and sat on it, despite pressure by Sen. Jim Risch and other Republicans.

Mr. Schumer promised bipartisan negotiations on an ICC sanctions bill. He never delivered, so the U.S. does nothing as the ICC expands its jurisdiction and stands poised to take up Hamas’s political struggle against Israel.

Prominent Donor to the University of Pennsylvania Will Donate to Israel Universities Instead!


Immediately after the terrible events of October 7, 2023, American college campuses were turned upside-down by dramatic anti-Israel protests and campus encampments that seemingly formed overnight. Antisemitic incidents became widespread as Jewish students and staff at major universities reported harassment, verbal and physical altercations, and more.


 Already in mid-October, David Magerman, a venture capitalist, investor, and computer scientist who had been a prominent donor to the University of Pennsylvania’s School of Engineering, publicly announced that he was withdrawing his grants to the school over the administration’s handling of the situation. He was one of several major donors to Ivy League schools to withdraw his donations.

But Magerman, an Orthodox Jew with long-term business and philanthropic interests in Israel, did more than that. He later announced that, through his Tzemach David Foundation, he would redirect funding intended for UPenn and donate $5 million dollars, divided among five Israeli universities, with the express intent of creating degree tracks for English speakers.

In June, the first of these donations was announced as a $1 million dollar grant to the Jerusalem College of Technology, and last week, it was announced that Tel Aviv University was the second recipient of the same amount. The funds are to be paid out over a five-year period.
