Israel Waiting For US Greenlight To Renew Iran War: New ‘Targets Marked’, Says Katz

Published by Jenni Sidey

It should come as no surprise that the Netanyahu government is not happy with this current lull in the Iran war, as Trump’s initially declared 3-5 day ceasefire extension has become more of an indefinite truce, with the Hormuz Strait blockade still on. Israel is now preparing for the possibility of a return to fighting, the country’s media is on Thursday reporting. Israel’s leadership has consistently stated that it wants to see regime change or else total government and societal collapse, saying that only then would Iran never more be a ‘threat to Israel. Fresh remarks by Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz have made clear that “Israel is prepared to renew the war against Iran. The IDF is prepared for both defense and offense, and the targets are marked.” But tellingly, he admitted a big obstacle stands in the way before the go ahead for a renewed bombing campaign can be given. “We are waiting for the green light from the U.S., first and foremost, to complete the elimination of the Khamenei dynasty and to …

‘Tears and grief’: Mother’s Day in Gaza marked by mourning | Israel-Palestine conflict News

Published by Sam Flores

Day of intense hardship as mothers mourn children lost in war and children face day without their mothers. While much of the Middle East celebrated Mother’s Day with flowers and gifts this weekend, in Gaza, the occasion served as a painful reminder of precious lives lost. Sitting in her tent in Gaza City on Saturday, Em Rami Dawwas remembered the three sons she lost in Israeli attacks, two of whose bodies are still being withheld by the authorities. Recommended Stories list of 3 itemsend of list “I miss my sons on Mother’s Day. They used to bring me gifts, flowers, sweets, and ask me about my needs. They were the light of my life,” she said, sitting among boxes filled with their clothes, which she cannot bring herself to throw away. Palestinian children have borne the brunt of Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza that began in October 2023, with UNICEF estimating in October last year that 64,000 children have been killed and wounded in Israeli attacks. Reporting from among the tents in Gaza City, Al …

Love Marked By Fate: Soulmate Romance Books

Published by Jenni Sidey

These soulmarks are preordained and can come in the form of a character’s name, a physical symbol found somewhere on the characters’ bodies (identical or complementary), a timer for when the characters will meet or when one will die, or even words spoken to each other upon meeting for the first time. The possibilities are endless. Like it or not, you have to admit this subtrope is a crafty idea to create tension and anticipation. While soulmarks are mostly preordained by the popular definition, there is also a type of soulmate mark that occurs after the main characters mutually accept their soulmate or mating bond, which can be a physical acceptance (often sex) and/or a psychological/spiritual acceptance. This type of soulmate mark can come in many forms as well. A popular example: a bite mark, often utilized in shifter romances. In paranormal romances and romantasies, this can also take the shape of a tattoo, scar, or symbol etched onto the main characters’ bodies. There are dozens of examples of these types of marks. Soulmarks are …

These On-Ear Beats Headphones Are Marked Down by $70

Published by skeptic

While most wireless headphones nowadays include some form of active noise canceling, there are a variety of reasons why you might not need or want the feature. Maybe you need them to work where you can clearly hear your surroundings, or battery life is crucial. No matter your reason, you can save $70 on the Beats Solo 4 at both Amazon and Best Buy in a variety of colors. Unlike most Beats headphones, which have a distinctly bass-forward sound profile, Apple’s influence has been increasingly toning down the brashness in favor of a more balanced and delicate approach. As a result, they have a tone that reviewer Ryan Waniata described as “tempered with a pleasant layer of smoky warmth.” The sound isn’t as impressive as on more expensive pairs, but it’s an enjoyable listen. Like most Beats headphones, they lack any kind of custom equalizer, so you’re stuck with how they sound out of the box, for better or worse. Aesthetically, they’re what you’d expect from Beats, with classic colors like matte black and slate …
