Starlink..
As of November 2019, Musk has launched some 122 satellites into the skies above us.
The ultimate goal is deploying some 12,000 by the mid-2020s.

in May/Netherlands...


there were more sightings last night...

The last weeks I've heard that ESA will start a program to remove "space garbage". Musk sends more garbage. 
Soon astronomers may watch satellites instead of far away stars and galaxies ...

https://twitter.com/saulbenkish
has put out some scorching tweets in the past few hours...
his basic theme:

Zionists needed Jews to fill their nascent State.
Zionists caused antisemitism & then claimed to provide a safe haven.
Israel's Zionist State is not the heir to the Jews massacred by the Nazis, but a partner of the Holocaust.
Zionist founders cooperated with the Nazis to take 6 million Jews to death camps.
Zionism used Jews and the Holocaust tragedy to invade the Holy Land.
The list of Jews the Nazis took to the concentration camps was prepared under the guidance of the Zionists.

The Satmar community was a harsh rival of Zionism, which it decided was deviant. Most of the 6 million Jews killed in 2 world wars were the @SatmarHasidic Jews. The World Zionist organization left them to die because they did not want to go to Palestine. @SatmarHasidic support. pic.twitter.com/eV0tgYr7vp

The Jewish Relief Committee, established by the Zionist Organization, which cooperates with the Nazis, opposes granting asylum to Jews in various countries.

.

he's speaking the truth ,and many jews know it.

but to be able to say it is something else.

this is a reaction to the ihra/trump jewish race declaration bullshit about equalling criticizing  israel with so called antisemitism.

torah jews have fought the same fight before 1933 and lost millions of followers in europe.

they can not rise in israel.

they live in concentrations around israel ,biggest group in jerusalem(mea shearim) ,then bnei brak and tzfat.

around 400-500.000 of them in israel,another 400-500.000 outside israel..

they have the (silent) support of 1 to 2 million non orthodox jews mainly outside israel,but they better shut up

they are like the jews in germany before the war,no rights,no work in govt, etc.

they are very poor,many of their children suffer hunger.

but they don't care ,they've been through it before.

right now in israel they are recognized as a treat to zionism,therefore they hassle and imprison them for refusing to serve in the zio SS army.

the media won't cover them ,and zio's and foreign jewish media always pictures them as loonies and childabusers.

95 % of jews in mainland europe were antizionist before WW2.

what's left of the antizio jews prepare themselves for another round.

we can expect many more uncomfortable truths from torah jews,and they know they are playing with their lives,like any nonzio jew.

now they are just being beaten ,humiliated  and imprisoned,.

let's wait for the first mass imprisonements and the first death in israel ,gb or US..

and again the world will be silent,too busy watching tv.

what gives.

Btw, what's your opinon on this, shachalnur (or others interested in the topic)?

A few days ago we have quite interesting debate on Twitter related to Judaism, zionism etc. Some interesting claims from anti-zionist participants were maid:

Judaism was first practised by Arabs in Mesopotamia  in the Abbasid Calipahte from 8th century AD and the Rabbinic and Karaite Jews crystallised in the 10th C. through efforts by Saadya Gaon.

I have no issues with Torah Jews and their beliefs, each is entitled to their own beliefs, as long as it doesn't hurt anyone. Judaism (partly) adopted Hebrew texts/prophets, and adopted the people as their own. That doesn't make Judeans into Jews though.

We even reached 1st/2nd century and Simeon Bar Kokhba. By Torah Jews his uprising is usually described as another example of oaths transgression:

"In the year 130 CE, Simeon Bar Kochba led a Jewish revolt against Rome and established a Jewish kingdom. This is another one of the cases listed by the Midrash when the oaths were transgressed. The Talmud (Sanhedrin 93b) says that when the Jewish Sages of that time realized that Bar Kochba was not the messiah, they killed him, putting a stop to his revolt."

He was seen as messiah and, thus, he tired to re-establish the kingdom. Rabbi Akiva gave him name "Bar Kokhba" - Son of Star.

The opinion of the participant was:

It was a Judean revolt, not "Jewish". "Judean" is a geographical reference, whose inhabitants in Jesus' time were all black people, including Judahites, Benjaminites, Levites, Edomites and other Hebrews. 1/2

Those amongst them who were faithful to Hebrew prophets, were also faithful to Jesus. hence not Jews. The remainder (including 'pharisees') were polytheists, ergo not Jews either. 2/2

What's your take on this?

Invisible Ink Embeds Immunization Records Into a Child’s Skin, “The Team Eventually Wants to Inject Sensors”
https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/invisible-ink-could-reveal-whether-kids-have-been-vaccinated/

Keeping track of vaccinations remains a major challenge in the developing world, and even in many developed countries, paperwork gets lost, and parents forget whether their child is up to date. Now a group of Massachusetts Institute of Technology researchers has developed a novel way to address this problem: embedding the record directly into the skin.

Along with the vaccine, a child would be injected with a bit of dye that is invisible to the naked eye but easily seen with a special cell-phone filter, combined with an app that shines near-infrared light onto the skin. The dye would be expected to last up to five years, according to tests on pig and rat skin and human skin in a dish.

The work was funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation…

Mercenaries flock to Libya raising fears of prolonged war
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/dec/24/mercenaries-flock-to-libya-raising-fears-of-prolonged-war



Hundreds Sudanese flood to LNA/Haftar (at least 3,000 total)
also been reinforced by Russian mercenaries in recent months
biggest Sudanese groups based in Libya once fought in Darfur
and include many who had fought against Sudan's rule of Omar al-Bashir.

“I know that we are mercenaries and we are not fighting with honour and dignity …. but this is temporary,
we will go back home after we are done with our mission here,”

Another commander said that fighting as mercenaries in Libya
"was the only way to obtain resources necessary to fight the Sudanese state in the future."

“The younger people are coming in to earn money. It could be one year, two years or more but eventually the conflict will cool off.
At some point they will start to return home [to Sudan],” he said.

There are also claims that a large contingent of Sudanese fighters from the feared paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF)
were deployed to Libya on the request of Hafter.

The most recent UN report said that a thousand Sudanese troops from the RSF,
(which has been accused of major atrocities earlier this year and in Darfur)
were deployed to Libya on 25 July 2019 by Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, a warlord turned senior official (also known as Hemedti.)
The Sudanese mercenaries are also involved in smuggling and other activities.

One commander said he helped smuggle migrants hoping to travel to Europe across the frontier between Sudan and Libya, and the hostile desert.
“You know when the militants have nothing to do, they have to work, so they sometimes smuggle people,” he said.

Tim Eaton, a Libya expert at Chatham House, London, said mercenaries were known to extort money from smugglers and from migrants.
“This usually means raising ‘taxes’ by either facilitating or impeding them,” Eaton said.

One Sudanese commander said that the his troops played a crucial role in “liberating” the oilfields seized by Hafter’s forces.
The claim is corroborated by previous reports from the UN panel of experts which said Sudanese mercenaries
'helped the LNA secure the country’s strategic “oil crescent”.
“Without our help, they would not be able to liberate it, we contributed to 50% of the military work there,”

Israel opposes Turkey-Libya maritime border accord
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-israel-turkey-greece/israel-opposes-turkey-libya-maritime-border-accord-idUSKBN1YR1VN
Erdo strikes out again.


The Israeli government had previously made no public comment on the accord, though Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will travel to Greece next week to solidify plans with Greece and Cyprus to build a subsea pipeline to export gas from Israel to Europe.

Nicosia said that Netanyahu had told Cyprus’ president last Friday that the maritime deal was to be condemned as “illegal”.

Asked to confirm the Cypriot account, Foreign Minister Israel Katz said: “That is the official position of Israel. But that doesn’t mean we are sending battleships to confront Turkey.”

We say that it's unacceptable for North Korea to obtain nuclear weapons, but that's more rhetorical than a real policy at this point. The risk to US forces & our allies is imminent & more effective policy is required before NK has the technology to threaten the American homeland.

— John Bolton (@AmbJohnBolton) December 23, 2019

John Bolton: "When the president says, 'Well, I'm not worried about short-range missiles,' he's saying, 'I'm not worried about the potential risk to American troops deployed in the region or our treaty allies, South Korea and Japan.'" https://t.co/8zrLorQ6yZ

— Jonathan Swan (@jonathanvswan) December 22, 2019

It's EZ for Bolton to make trump look weak. The NK 'policy' is not 'new' and not 'Bolton's'.
The 'logic' and rock solid 'position' has been drilled into the American brain for almost 70 years.
To change it, Trump would have had to follow through with softening sanctions, striking new agreements and encouraging SK/NK reconciliation.
He didn't (cuz he honestly had NO PLAN. None.)
For the Donald it was simply a 'photo op' and a craving to be seen by the world as a 'brilliant maverick'. a stable jenius.
he's actually just a alpha dog real estate clown that likes to shoot from the hip then claim (or deny) the 'outcome' when the dust settles.
He truly is NOT 'brilliant' and this is a 'walk in the park' for someone as lethal and cunning as Bolton.
