9. The Pier Con
The $320 million Gaza floating pier is a floating dock facility proposed by the White House immediately on March 7, 2024. It is being constructed by U.S. military forces on ships offshore the Gaza Strip, then connected with the shore by causeway, and when complete would enable delivery of maritime cargo for humanitarian assistance to Gaza. Israel will inspect the humanitarian aid in Cyprus prior to shipping, and again at checkpoints in Gaza when it is delivered off the pier. The pier has the capacity to deliver 150 trucks of aid per day.
Going by the Channel 14 map, the Netzarim Corridor appears to be almost exactly 2km wide—1km on each side of the road the IDF is paving down the middle of it from the border to the coast, much like the 1km-deep buffer zone being established inside Gaza along the border. THIS is the official cover story.
The REALITY is very different. Remember, the original reason that the US backed Israel in its genocidal campaign to take over Gaza, and grab control of Gaza’s off-shore gas fields, which would then be converted into a single ownership, that of Nobel Oil, which became a subsidiary of the Rockefeller’s Chevron Oil.
That plan did not go according to plan. Thus, this new gimmick by the Rockefeller Empire. If one looks at the map carefully, we find that the Netzarim Corridor distinctly bisects Gaza into north and south. Once the pier is built, this would then serve as a barrier, which will prohibit Gazans from returning to their homes in the north.
The next step would be to build a wall or a barrier to permanently seal off the north from the south.
Saying that this would allow 150 trucks of aid daily is a lie. All the US has to do is to allow more crossings to open, and increase the flow of aid trucks to as many as 2,000 trucks a day. In addition, this will allow for construction equipment in, and re-habilitate medical facilities and services. This, of course, will not happen.
Look at the map below. See where the gas fields are in connection to the Netzarim Junction. This corridor/barrier splits the north from the south, at the exact point where the gas fields lie. A coincidence maybe? Hardly! Even in war, the post-war objectives are clearly defined. And, from all the evidence shown here, the Rockefeller game-plan is still proceeding.
A Maritime Corridor for Gaza
In maritime operations, if a blockade is applied, no ships should be able to enter the area. Now, since the US has established a humanitarian corridor, this effectively nullifies the blockade and helps Tel Aviv pretend there isn’t one. Consequently, the US is practically invalidating the blockade decision recorded in the provisional measures decision by the ICJ, which was not supposed to be implemented – a legal loophole to provide succor to Israel’s massive international law violations.
The route’s strategic placement and military significance complicate the entry and distribution of aid throughout Gaza. For the aid arriving through the maritime corridor, once the goods are offloaded at the pier, they still need to be transported across Gaza to reach the populations in need.
The Netzarim Corridor’s checkpoints could become bottlenecks for these deliveries. It is uncertain whether these checkpoints will allow seamless transportation of goods from the maritime corridor to the northern parts of Gaza, where famine has struck badly. The suspicion is that the project, while ostensibly “facilitating” aid delivery, might also allow for increased control over the entirety of Gaza under the guise of humanitarian assistance. This control could potentially streamline Israel’s military operations and fortify its strategic positions within Gaza, ultimately influencing the broader geopolitical dynamics of the conflict.
Furthermore, the positioning of the pier may strategically protect Gaza’s nearby offshore gas fields, aligning with Israeli and US interests in stealing Palestinians’ energy resources. The positioning of the aid entry points away from the northern parts of Gaza, where famine is most acute, to areas controlled by the Israeli army suggests a strategic alignment with Israel’s military objectives to remain physically in Gaza despite ceasefire negotiations that demand their complete exit from the Strip.
Concerns have also been raised about the potential for the US to take over control of the Egyptian border, effectively aiding in a permanent blockade of Gaza from Egypt, which could sever Gazans from access to any non-Israeli access to goods – forever.
In essence, while the maritime corridor could indeed alleviate a tiny portion of Gaza’s immediate humanitarian needs, its broader implications suggest a tangled web of geopolitical strategies.
Instead of establishing a floating pier for humanitarian aid, one of the most practical solutions is to send aid directly to Israel’s Ashdod Port and from there to Gaza under UN supervision. However, in line with Israel’s military strategy, sending the aid through the Netzarim Corridor under Israeli military control to the assembly areas in the south of Gaza and directing the Palestinians to these aid points has facilitated the assault on Rafah. Palestine, situated at the crossroads between Asia and Africa and on the border of the Indian Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea, has been a source of contention since the earliest known great powers of history. Historically, for powers in Africa or those controlling Egypt, Palestine has been the key to securing the strategic Suez point for military strategy. Similarly, for powers in Asia or those emerging from the continent, controlling Palestine was crucial for accessing the Suez.
Today, the US faces the potential loss of access to the Bab el-Mandeb passage due to Yemen’s maritime operations in and around the Red Sea, which are now expanding to the Mediterranean. Such a loss would likely shift the balance of power in the Red Sea strategic area and further across West Asia.
When considering historical and current rivalries, it is evident that a significant benefit for Washington is to control the Suez Canal through Tel Aviv. It is plausible that Israel’s dominion over the Gaza Strip and the US control of the offshore waters of Gaza under the guise of humanitarian aid could facilitate US control over the exits of the Suez Canal, as well as the routes from Iran and Russia to the Eastern Mediterranean through Lebanon and Syria. The alignment of Israel’s objectives in Gaza with Washington’s strategic goals explains the continued US support of Israel – in spite of intensifying global outrage over its enabling of ethnic cleansing and land grabbing.
The Rockefeller Empire, for its own reasons, will not abandon its plans for a “gas heist and consolidation” deal for Gaza’s gas resources. The second is to deny Russia any participation in these fields. Remember, at the end of 2013, Putin told PLA leader Mahmood Abbas, that when the license for the fields- given to British Gas (now a subsidiary of the Rothschild’s Shell Oil) expires in December 2023, Russia will take over the gas fields. The United States in recent days authorized the transfer of billions of dollars’ worth of bombs and fighter jets to Israel in secret. Citing Pentagon and State Department officials, the American daily said the new military aid package includes 1,800 MK-84 2,000-pound bombs and 500 MK-82 500-pound bombs, along with 25 F-35 stealth fighter jets that were initially approved as part of a larger package by Congress in 2008.
Israel requested the third squadron of 25 F-35s in July of last year, which when delivered will bring the total size of its fleet to 75. U.S. attempts to drop aid from the air have changed nothing in Gaza and its plan to deliver aid via a sea port, which is literally being built on the ruins of Palestinians homes, will not likely do any better. Despite the dire humanitarian situation in the Strip and the high possibility of Israel committing a massacre in Rafah, the U.S. support for the war appears to be as strong as ever. In fact, it may be safe now to say that the U.S. is now a full-on partner in the Israeli war.
This was the reason for the urgency of this operation. Now, we can understand the savagery of the genocide conducted by Israel and the US in this war.
The Israeli army is constructing a corridor splitting Gaza City from the south as part of a plan to implement Israeli control over the enclave. Channel 14 aired a report on the zone called the Netzarim Corridor, detailing how Israel’s reserve Engineering Corps are building the new Highway 749 which will run through the strip south of Gaza City. It revealed a 1-kilometer buffer zone north and south of the highway, with Unit 601 of the Engineering Corps tasked with demolishing surrounding buildings. Among the structures likely to levelled are the Turkish Hospital, a campus of Al-Azhar University, the villages of Mughraqa and Juhor al-Dik, Nour and Shams amusement parks, as well as acres of agricultural land.
The corridor will run through the former grounds of the Netzarim Settlement, which was evacuated in 2005 as part of Prime Minister Ariel Sharon’s disengagement from Gaza.
According to Israeli soldiers speaking with Channel 14, the highway will give the army a clear route to enable future incursions into the territory and prevent the movement of people from south to north.
Earlier in January, Ynet reported that the corridor could prevent one million Palestinians who were expelled from Gaza City earlier in the war from returning to their homes.
The Israeli government of Benjamin Netanyahu has demanded security control and the ability to conduct raids in Gaza as part of any post-war settlement in the enclave. Experts say the corridor plan indicates the army is preparing to stay in Gaza over the long term.
10. Cyprus –The CIA/MI6 Intel Base
U.S. SPIES HAVE ‘WIDE RANGE’ OF FACILITIES ON UK’S CYPRUS BASE NEAR GAZA—AND SHARE MATERIAL ‘DAILY’ WITH ISRAEL.
Leaked top secret documents reveal spying assets on British Cyprus are integrated with “military planning and operations”—and intelligence is likely being passed to Israel to help it bomb Gaza, further implicating Britain in war crimes. American spies class their bases on British Cyprus as “important assets”
The US has four spy sites on Cyprus, which are believed to form part of its “far-reaching” intelligence relationship with Israel. Israel “enjoys the benefits of expanded geographic access” to US spy sites. US spies have widespread access to Britain’s bases on Cyprus and share information ‘daily’ with their Israeli counterparts, leaked top secret documents show.
The British so-called Sovereign Base Areas (SBA) on Cyprus, which comprises 3% of the island’s landmass, sits just 300kms from Gaza. The bases are said to be the largest British intelligence facilities outside of the UK, although they have never been officially acknowledged. The main US spy agency working on the British territory in Cyprus is the National Security Agency (NSA). It is likely intelligence obtained from Gaza by US spy agencies on British Cyprus is being fed to the Israelis, further implicating both countries in Israeli war crimes in Gaza. The US and British militaries are key partners of Israel, and have supported its bombing of Gaza. The documents show intelligence gathered on Cyprus is likely to be part of this support. Over 30 UK military transport flights have flown from the Cyprus base to Tel Aviv since the bombing of Gaza began.
Meanwhile, US surveillance drones are known to be flying over Gaza, while the US is moving arms to Israel from around Europe using RAF Akrotiri, Britain’s vast air base on Cyprus. For 50 years, the US and Britain have attempted to keep secret the size and activities of the American presence at the UK bases and “retained sites” on Cyprus. 129 US airmen are permanently deployed to RAF Akrotiri, which is a staging post for bombing campaigns across the Middle East. The US spy force, the 1st Expeditionary Reconnaissance Squadron, is also permanently deployed at Akrotiri.
The intelligence relationship between the NSA and its Israeli counterparts is shown to be unusually close. The relationship had recently undergone an expansion to include other Israeli and US intelligence organisations such as CIA [and] Mossad – this SIGINT relationship has increasingly been the catalyst for a broader intelligence relationship between the United States and Israel. US-Israel intelligence sharing is also shown to focus on the Middle East, the region covered by the NSA sites on Cyprus. The single largest exchange between NSA and ISNU is on targets in the Middle East which constitute strategic threats to US and Israeli interests.
Meanwhile, NSA’s partnerships with Israeli spies had “expanded” to include Israeli Defense Intelligence’s Special Operation Division and Mossad. This had resulted in “unprecedented access and collection breakthroughs”. It is believed the CIA is also operating from Britain’s bases on Cyprus.
The Royal Air Force has flown 200 surveillance flights over Gaza since December. The extraordinary number of missions over the past five months works out at well over a flight per day and continues as Israel invades the supposedly “safe” southern city of Rafah. March saw the highest number of British spy flights over Gaza with 44 missions.
The Rothschilds Employ 1000s of Mercenaries for the Genocide
The international community is not only silent about Israel’s genocide but also needs foreign mercenaries to fight alongside IOF in Gaza. The IDF summoned hundreds of reserve soldiers to reinforce its ranks in preparation for its ground attack on the Gaza Strip. To bolster their Israeli ranks the IDF promoted an influx of people holding Israeli passports and living in foreign countries.
Tel Aviv contacted international security contractors to provide fighters to perform military tasks during its ongoing war in Gaza.
Pedro Diaz Flores Corrales, aged 27 years, is a former soldier in the Spanish army and had previously fought as a mercenary in both Ukraine and Iraq. In addition to this, he is known for belonging to a fascist political group, the so-called Neo-Nazi movement. The group is involved in illicit arms trafficking, as well as mercenary exploitation.
Corrales justified his decision to fight alongside the IDF, and said that each participant in the fighting receives about 3,900 euros ($4,187) a weekly salary and perks associated with the tasks they perform.
There pictures of Corrales surrounded by mercenaries of different nationalities, including French, Germans, and Albanians, and even American Marines or members of the Special Forces who fought in Iraq, Afghanistan, Mali, or Kosovo.
Last October, French media circulated news about a large number of French fighters joining the fight alongside the IDF. A report revealed in the past the presence of hundreds of European mercenaries who volunteer for military service in the ranks of the IDF, as part of Special Forces, especially in the Gaza Strip. Organizations directly linked to right-wing Jewish and Christian groups within Europe are organizing projects and campaigns to invite Europeans to join the IDF, as well as to join campaigns to support illegal settler operations against Palestinians in the West Bank. There are a total of 4,600 foreign volunteers in the ranks of the Israeli forces, in addition to many dual citizens from all over the world, whether in active or reserve service.
Israel relies on private security contractors, most notably the local company Global CST. The mercenaries working for this company are accused of committing crimes against humanity in the conflicts in which they participated in Latin America, South Ossetia and Africa. Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) said they have sent 2,000 mercenaries to Israel to fight in Gaza. The PKK is an international recognized terrorist organization which has killed over 30,000 people in Turkey over three decades.
The IDF are afraid to enter the tunnels dug by Hamas, and fear that they will not emerge from the tunnels alive, and for this reason they use PKK and other mercenaries for this purpose, and mercenary fighters from European countries, Iraq, Syria, and America have arrived in Israel.
Foreigners fighting for Israel in Gaza are war criminals and mercenaries along with the IDF. In December, Thomas Portes, a member of the French National Assembly (Parliament) revealed a letter he had sent to the Minister of Justice, asking him to investigate some 4,185 French citizens believed to have been fighting with the IDF. The letter, posted on X, calls for the investigation of war crimes the French volunteers might have been participating in while fighting in Gaza, where war crimes have widely been reported. French volunteers make up some 45 % of the total foreign volunteers joining the IDF as mercenaries. In contrast, the French people have been pouring, in their hundreds of thousands into the streets in support of Palestine and demanding a ceasefire.
According to Israel’s Defense Ministry report, published in 2016, Americans contribute 29 % of the foreigners joining the IDF annually, followed by the British, at 5 %. Some 100 Brits are currently serving in the IDF as it continues its genocidal war in Gaza. 80 % of the mercenaries usually serve for 18 months within the ranks of the IDF and get the same pay and treatment as regular IDF personnel. The majority of them join the IDF’s combat infantry, responsible for the daily killing of Palestinians in the West Bank, East Jerusalem and Gaza. On top of their regular monthly salaries, they receive nearly $7,000 after they complete their training. Not a single European country, or the US and the UK, have publicly warned their own citizens against joining the IDF. The foreign fighters have participated in the war crimes taking place in Gaza. A study published in June 2022, revealed at least 1,200 Americans are serving in the IDF at any given time. The study found that, on any given year, some 3,500 foreign Jewish soldiers have been serving in the IDF over the last two decades. 21 American soldiers were killed when the IDF suffered its biggest single day loss in Gaza at the hands of the Palestinian Resistance fighters, who killed a total of 24 soldiers of the invading IDF. While precise number of American citizens fighting in Gaza is unknown, they are thought to be in their hundreds. Since the Israeli attack on Gaza started on 7 October, at least 10,000 people living in the US have received draft notices from the Israel army to report for duty. Many of them do have dual Israeli citizenship, making accountability for possible war crimes a tricky legal issue, despite America’s Neutrality Act, dating back to the founding days of the US, making it illegal for any American citizen to take part in any foreign war, or establish a militia for that purpose. However, the Act has not been reinforced recently, as hundreds of Americans have participated in wars in Ukraine, in Libya in 2011 and, now, in Gaza.
Besides the US, foreign fighters joining the IDF come from at least five European countries, including Italy, France, Belgium, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. According to Italy’s Foreign Minister, Antonio Tajani, there were some 18,000 Italian nationals working and living in Israel when the war started, among them 1,000 who work for the IDF. Not a single Western government has, so far, taken any action to punish its citizens fighting for Israel as it carries out genocide in Gaza.
Israeli-Kurdish Relationship
Israel has become the only country to openly support an independent Kurdish state, a result of good ties between Kurds and Jews. In September 2017, Israel became the first and so far only country to openly voice support for “the legitimate efforts of the Kurdish people to attain a state of its own.”
The Kurds have been and will continue to be reliable and long-term allies of Israel since they are, like us, a minority group in the region, according to Kurd-Israel analysts. The relationship between Israel and PKK and also the Peshmerga forces of northern Iraq, is nothing new. One of the biggest supporters of Massoud Barzani’s failed independence referendum in 2017 was Israel. While Israel was being established, many Jewish Kurds immigrated to Palestine. There are currently more than 200 thousand Jewish Kurds living in Israel. Mickey Levy, who was once elected as the Speaker of the Israeli Parliament, is one of them. The Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) in northern Iraq has remained silent amid Israel’s escalating war in Gaza. With delicate political and economic ties to the US, Israel and Iran, it’s hoping to avoid being dragged into a regional conflict. The Kurdistan Region is a pro-American island in a sea of anti-American sentiment. If the war escalates, there will be pressure on it from both sides.
The two main parties are the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP), and the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK), and the main political power lies with the KRG Prime Minister Masrour Barzani, who has studiously avoided commenting on the war in Gaza. Although the KRG has no official ties with Israel, the two governments have economic ties and Israel has supported the establishment of an independent Kurdish state.
Should the Kurdish authorities take a pro-US and Israel tilt in the war on Gaza, Iran-backed parties in Baghdad could decide to turn up the pressure on the KRG, and for this reason the Kurds are trying to avoid taking a position. They want to maintain a balance in the middle and appear neutral in the current war, while they will express sympathy for the Palestinians as a moral issue and consider the Kurdistan Region and its people to be uninvolved, say regional analysts.
In contrast, the Kurdistan Region’s two Islamist parties — the Kurdistan Islamic Union (KIU) and the Kurdistan Justice Group (KJG) — have loudly condemned Israel’s bombardment of Gaza. There are also economic considerations. Until the Kurdistan Region’s independent oil exports were suspended in March 2023, Israel was a major destination of Kurdish crude starting in 2014. According to media reports, it received 183,000 barrels per day in February, although the amount fluctuated from month to month. Intending to use them in tunnels of Hamas, Israel offers Kurdish PKK terrorists $2,200 to join the frontlines in its genocidal war against Palestinians with thousands of terrorists and mercenaries already transported to Israel. The Israeli government made a contract with PKK terrorists, with whom they agreed to a salary of 9 thousand Israeli shekels ($2,200) in addition to $25,000 of compensation in case of death or injury. Israel intends to use PKK terrorists in its land attack on Gaza as it does not want to send its own soldiers into the tunnels of Hamas. Nearly 2,000 terrorists and mercenaries from Europe, Iraq, Syria and the US have moved into Israel. Peshmerga forces from northern Iraq have also been sent to the frontlines in Israel.
Calls are being made to recruit militants to fight for Israel, and many organizations have been carrying out extensive activities, such as: the “Kurdish-Israeli Friendship Union” founded by Mordehay Zaken, the “Kurdish Institute” and the “Israeli Jewish Kurds” organization. Israeli organizations have been negotiating with Peshmerga to send Kurds from northern Iraq to Israel, reminding them of the support given by the Tel Aviv regime to them since 1958.
In Ayn al-Arab, an Israeli colonel and his team of seven people have been carrying out activities to find people experienced in urban warfare. The mercenaries recruited from Iraq and Syria was given Israeli citizenship identities. These were then transported to Israel by three planes. The last flight took off on October 29 from Erbil. Eight of those whom Israel sent to the front were killed in Gaza.
The Kurdish PKK members sent to Israel are mainly from northern Iraq, and were sent with the help of Masoud Barzani- its leader, who loves to be used by Israel and the US, time and time again. And, time and time again, Brazini is brutally dumped after its usefulness to these two crooks has served its purposes. It is estimated that there are about 200,000 Kurdish Jews in the area, some of whom have been sent. The US is trying to make the Kurds partners with Israel. But, many Kurds take the side of the people of Gaza and the Palestinian resistance. Some have warned that the Kurds, who side with Israel in Gaza, would become a new target in the Islamic world together with Israel. For other Kurds, there is a sense of empathy with the Palestinian suffering, but they also feel that there’s an immense double standard against the Kurds.
11. The Al Jazeera Shutdown
Ever since 2010, the IOF has targeted journalists that were present on the ground in both Gaza and the West Bank. The most severe case of this is Al Jazeera. In the past, the IOF has destroyed/bombed and brought down the press building in Gaza. In addition, during the current genocide, the IOF has targeted Al Jazeera and its staff on a relentless rate. Israel does not want any outside press in Gaza in order to hide their crimes, and to avoid any pro-Palestinian sentiment in the world. But, what made Israel to finally shut down Al Jazeera.
The Resistance has captured many drones from the IOF. The videos recovered from these drones provides with Hamas with PROOF of IOF war crimes. Hamas releases some of this footage to Al Jazeera, which then airs it for the whole world to see. It has happened several times in the past few days. There were three days when such videos were aired on Al Jazeera. On day 4, the IOF shut the station down. They confiscated all the equipment, computers and cell phones. This was the last international media network operating in Gaza. But, all is not lost. The Resistance has ways of getting this information out to the world. The IOF can shut down Al Jazeera, but the IOF forgot that there are thousands of Gazans who have smart phones, which can record the war crimes of the IOF, and post it on social media.
