🚨 Israel has notified the U.S that the constant requests for delays to delay the ground invasion into Gaza is beginning to "wear thin." The U.S is requesting delays to allow time to negotiate a release for the hostages. The Department of Defense is also unprepared for an outbreak of violence in the region once the invasion begins. The US military still has assets moving into position and targets being identified.

🚨BREAKING: ISRAELI HOSTAGE EXPOSES DISTURBING ACCOUNT In a shocking revelation, Israeli hostage Yasmin Porat has raised disconcerting questions about the tragic events of October 7. The Testimony: In an exclusive interview, Porat disclosed that Israeli forces eliminated everyone, including hostages, amid heavy crossfire and tank shelling. Censorship Concerns and Unfiltered Truth: Porat's account mysteriously vanished from the "Haboker Hazeh" program, sparking questions of potential censorship. The full interview has also been completely censored off of all social media platforms and off of Kan's website. However, her unfiltered testimony has already resonated widely on social media. In her interviews, Porat reveals a shocking twist: Palestinian fighters treated the hostages humanely, offering them hope of a safe passage to Gaza, despite the chaos. The compassionate act stands in stark contrast to the chaos that unfolded. The captive group's relief was brutally disrupted as Israeli forces arrived, unleashing a storm of gunfire that wounded fighters and hostages alike. She said this about the Israeli forces to Israeli radio: "They eliminated everyone, including the hostages." Amid this revelation, questions arise about what truly transpired on October 7, shedding new light on a day marked by profound sorrow for both Israelis and Palestinians. The harrowing testimony of Yasmin Porat challenges the narrative, emphasizing the importance of a thorough, impartial investigation into the events of that fateful day.

🚨🚨STATEMENT FROM SECRETARY OF DEFENSE AUSTIN Statement on Steps to Increase Force Posture: Following detailed discussions with President Biden on recent escalations by Iran and its proxy forces across the Middle East Region, today I directed a series of additional steps to further strengthen the Department of Defense posture in the region. These steps will bolster regional deterrence efforts, increase force protection for U.S. forces in the region, and assist in the defense of Israel. First, I redirected the movement of the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower Carrier Strike Group to the Central Command area of responsibility. This carrier strike group is in addition to the USS Gerald R. Ford Carrier Strike Group, which is currently operating in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea. It will further increase our force posture and strengthen our capabilities and ability to respond to a range of contingencies. I have also activated the deployment of a Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) battery as well as additional Patriot battalions to locations throughout the region to increase force protection for U.S. forces. Finally, I have placed an additional number of forces on prepare to deploy orders as part of prudent contingency planning, to increase their readiness and ability to quickly respond as required. I will continue to assess our force posture requirements in the region and consider deploying additional capabilities as necessary.

🚨🚨BREAKING - U.S CENTRAL COMMAND STATEMENT: "In response to recent escalations by Iran & its proxy forces across the Middle East, Secretary of Defense Austin directed the USS Eisenhower, a THAAD BTRY, & additional Patriot BNs to the CENTCOM region to increase force posture, strengthen capabilities & ability to respond to contingencies."

🚨🚨BREAKING - U.S DEPARTMENT OF STATE WARNING | OFFERING CRISIS LOANS FOR EVACUATION "U.S. citizens who wish to depart Lebanon should leave now, due to the unpredictable security situation. There are still commercial flights available, but there is reduced capacity." "If you need a financial assistance loan from the U.S. government to purchase tickets on a flight to depart Lebanon," fill out the form on their website. ADDITION: I've also received reports from U.S citizens in Lebanon receiving an email advising them to leave. This is the FIRST TIME SINCE 2006 this has happened.
