Did Zionists really think that they could just go back to Israel being seen as a normal country by the general population just because of a ceasefire?

Bulletins and International News Discussion from October 6th to October 12th, 2025 - A New Revolutionary Wave?
(hexbear.net)
There's way too much going on right now for me to really focus on any one country this week. The aftermath of the fall of the Nepal government has, somewhat surprisingly, reverberated around the world, and not only in countries that are enemies to the West as you'd expect; for example, Morocco's government battle fiercely with Egypt's and Jordan's to be first in line to lick the dogshit off the boots of Zionists, and yet Morocco is currently embroiled in a large protest wave based primarily around a youth unemployment crisis (though their population is also remarkably pro-Palestinian, which generates additional friction). We're also seeing similar protests in Madagascar, Peru, and Paraguay, and perhaps more will come. I'm personally fairly doubtful in the potential for meaningful economic results from these protests (the current imperialist system seems too deeply embedded for a movement that isn't explicitly communist and anti-imperialist to alter conditions), but it is quite possible for new political results at least.
Outside of the developing world, it appears that the unpopularity of western leaders, such as in the UK, France, and Italy, is creating new levels of unrest. In Britain, the political system has become so utterly moribund that even the artificial democracy of a two-party system (more-or-less; the Lib Dems do exist I suppose) no longer suffices, with both Conservatives and Labour gradually sinking. The Reform party appears like it may become the new standard-bearer of the capitalists and petit-bourgeois - that is, the historical wellspring of fascism - and the Left Party (whatever name they eventually choose) may or may not rise to meet the occasion. In France, they're on their fifth Prime Minister in two years, after Lecornu lasted about a month, attempting the liberal classic: promising change, and then appointing the exact same people who have ruled for the last few decades. And pro-Palestinian protests and general strikes have erupted in Italy, in defiance of their rightwing government under Meloni.
While there's plenty of other events (e.g. continuing aggression against Venezuela that might soon erupt into a war) it would be remise of me not to mention the very much ongoing events vis-a-vis Palestine and a potential peace deal there, seemingly supported to some degree by Trump. It could be legitimate, and it could be some big act (very likely the latter, IMO). Both Trump and Netanyahu seem to believe that they're very talented political masterminds, producing manoeuvres and feints that would make Machiavelli blush. Nothing could be further from the truth, and I trust the militant organizations inside Palestine to outplay these American failsons. Hamas and similar groups are not nearly as gullible as the Iranian reformist faction - though few people are!

Alexander Mercouris, who does daily videos on the conflict. While he is a reactionary and surrounds himself with likeminded people, his daily update videos are relatively brainworm-free and good if you don't want to follow Russian telegram channels to get news. He also co-hosts The Duran, which is more explicitly conservative, racist, sexist, transphobic, anti-communist, etc when guests are invited on, but is just about tolerable when it's just the two of them if you want a little more analysis.
Simplicius, who publishes on Substack. Like others, his political analysis should be soundly ignored, but his knowledge of weaponry and military strategy is generally quite good.

MKs Ayman Odeh & Ofer Cassif removed after disrupting Trump's Knesset speech. Hadash MKs shout "terrorist," hold signs demanding 'recognize Palestine' in middle of US President's address to the Knesset.
MKs Ayman Odeh and Ofer Cassif of the far-left Hadash party were removed from the Knesset plenum this afternoon (Monday) after they disrupted US President Donald Trump's speech to the Knesset.
The MKs held up signs saying, "Recognize Palestine" and shouted "terrorist" during the American President's address. The disruption occurred as Trump was praising his special envoy, Steve Witkoff. Both disruptors were quickly ordered removed from the plenary. Their removal by Knesset security was met with cheers from other MKs. Related articles:
President Trump remarked after they were removed: "That was very efficient." He then continued with his speech.
Following their removal from the plenary, MK Odeh wrote on X that he "raised the most basic demand, a demand that the entire international community agrees upon: To recognize a Palestinian state."
MK Cassif stated that he "didn't come to disturb, but to demand justice."
lfg Hadash the only good political party in the occupations political assembly known as the “Knesset”
This is how you know you’re the good guys
“Nazi fliers distributed outside Ofer prison (near Ramallah) where Palestinian prisoners are usually released, ahead of a prepared raid by the Zionist forces:
"We are watching you everywhere
If you express any support or affiliation to terrorist organizations, you are putting yourselves in danger of arrest and severe consequences
You have been warned"”
Alhamdulillah, the freed are now being checked out for medical issues by the Red Cross
Are USian troops getting paid or not? Can't get a clear answer on this. I think it's fundamentally important towards estimates for when something in Venezuela will happen.
Apparently they will get payed on October 15th, via money from research funds. Two days from now.
Troops in breadlines indicates no they're not.
Crazy that one delayed payment is enough to force the baby killers to need food assistance in a country with a $1 trillion military budget.
Concidering how most people in lower enlisted ranks make somewhere around 13 bucks an hour give or take and you're usually getting fucked with additional bullshit to pay for, not really. They're all usually like less than one paycheck away from having to be on additional government assistance programs just to fiscally function.
Hell the majority of 'em would be homeless if it wasn't for free housing in barracks.
that 50% APR muscle car loan isn't going to pay itself
I find it deeply sickening that after everything that's happened over two years, people still treat the release of the hostages like it's the fucking second coming. Hundreds of thousands are dead, who gives a shit about these two dozen people. Not the "Israelis", they would never have started bombing if they did.
Of course they act that way. It's settler colonialism. To the colonizer, there is no cost of colonized lives too great to further their own cause
Weren't there only occupation soldiers left?

Palestinian buses are moving from Gaza toward the "Kerem Shalom" crossing to transport Palestinian prisoners who will be released by the occupation.
Simultaneously, the resistance has released the names of 20 PoWs to be released and is preparing for handover in less than an hour
This channel is live streaming Al-Jazeera who have cameras at multiple locations. Despite the official ban on ceremonies at the release site, the brigades are there, announcing their commitment to the principles so long as israel is in compliance
Some of the prisoners who will be freed shortly:
The prisoner Tarek Adna Hussein from the village of Nazlat Issa, sentenced to three life imprisonments
The prisoner General Adib Abu Al-Rub from Nour Shams camp, sentenced to life imprisonment
The prisoner General Bahaa Al-Shabrawi from Nour Shams camp, sentenced to 35 years in prison
The prisoner "Bassam Abu Safaqa" from the city of Tulkarm, sentenced to life imprisonment plus twenty years, who has spent 24 years in captivity
Israel revises list of Palestinian prisoners slated for release: Report
Israel’s Haaretz is reporting that Israeli ministers have approved several changes to the list of Palestinian prisoners who are set to be released as part of the ceasefire deal.
The changes include the removal of a Palestinian who had been previously released and the addition of two others “who are not serving life sentences and are affiliated with Hamas”, the news outlet reported.
It said that seven minors were taken off the list and two women were added.
Overall, 1,718 Palestinian prisoners will be released instead of the previously agreed-upon 1,722, Haaretz added.
The report came as Israeli authorities warned Palestinians in the occupied West Bank against celebrating the release of their loved ones.
Hamas has meanwhile demanded the release of prominent Palestinian Marwan Barghouti, but it’s unclear if Israel will free him.
Absolutely disgusting country. 
This "country" can't be fucking trusted ever.
Peru's new president, José Jerí Oré, used to follow numerous accounts that shared adult content . So far, he has unfollowed more than 300 accounts, just hours after taking office.
Peruvian president José Jerí on his X account: "The good women are seduced by love, care and respect for all the others there's Mastercard ".
Peruvian president José Jerí on his X account: "The battles against women are the only ones that you win running. Napoleon I"
(CW: Sexual Assault): In January 2025, Jerí was formally accused of sexual assault following a New Year's Eve party in Canta. The alleged incident took place at the Santa Rosa Casa Club in Quives on 29 December 2024, where Jerí was with a group of friends. Among the guests was Marco Antonio Cardoza Hurtado, who had arrived with a 31-year-old woman (the complainant) and another person. According to the complainant, she lost consciousness that afternoon and later woke up with pain in her intimate parts. The complaint identified both Jerí and Cardoza as suspects.
On 12 August 2025, the Public Prosecutor's Office, now led by Tomás Gálvez, dismissed the case against Jerí for the alleged assault after determining there was insufficient evidence to proceed. It was also reported that Cardoza Hurtado, the other suspect, had left Peru for France on 4 February without notifying prosecutors and failed to appear for the collection of biological samples.
Death, taxes, single digit approval ratings for the Peruvian president
Looks like the "SDF" is on the verge of capitulating to the "HTS" regime in Damascus:
“The SDF will become a strong part of the new Syrian army. In the coming days, we, as the SDF command, will dispatch a delegation to the Syrian defense ministry in Damascus in order to implement the March 10 agreement. The process of SDF’s integration into the Syrian army will begin,” Abdi said.
Who could have seen it coming
That’s truly pathetic. the SDF has become a mere shadow of what it once aimed to be. This is what you get from cooperating with the US: Assad deposed, and in the end, Al-Qaeda took the stage. And frankly, they’re working more closely with the clerical fascists now than they ever did with Assad. What a complete mess. [Insert 
qoute here.]
lmao the Rojava skeptics of 2015-2017 are beyond vindicated, hell even their predictions were too optimistic
All the shit I caught for the pointing out that if the US wins in Syria, then al-qaeda wins in Syria and all I got back in response were fantasies about how Rojava would liberate (with US permission implied) the rest of Syria and install a anarchist utopia
So many delusions back then
I honestly would have preferred to be wrong at almost every point where Syria is concerned. That would be a nicer world to live in.
The SDF will become a strong part of the new Syrian army.
Woke, federated Al-Qaeda and ISIS.

Military Coup in Madagascar
“I give him my blessing,” the minister said of Pikulas at the ceremony in Antananarivo.
The elite CAPSAT army unit, which played a major role in a 2009 coup that first brought Rajoelina to power, joined forces with the youth-led demonstrators on Saturday.
Early on Sunday, the contingent claimed in a video statement that “from now on, all orders of the Malagasy army – whether land, air or [naval] – will originate from CAPSAT headquarters.”
The declaration came hours after the presidency accused unnamed forces of attempting to overthrow Rajoelina. In a statement, the presidency said “an attempted illegal and forcible seizure of power” was under way in the African nation, without providing details.
After the army ceremony in the capital, Pikulas admitted to journalists that events in Madagascar over the past few days had been “unpredictable”.
“So the army has a responsibility to restore calm and peace throughout Madagascar,” he said.
Asked about calls for Rajoelina to resign, he said he refused to “discuss politics within a military facility”.
‘Do not obey orders’
On Saturday, military personnel from CAPSAT had urged their comrades to stop following orders and instead back the youth-led uprising.
“We have become boot lickers,” some members of the unit said in a video posted on social media. “We have chosen to submit and execute orders, even illegal ones, instead of protecting the population and their property.”
“Do not obey orders from your superiors. Point your weapons at those who order you to fire on your comrades in arms because they will not take care of our families if we die,” they said.
CAPSAT Colonel Michael Randrianirina said his unit’s decision to join the protesters did not amount to a coup. “We answered the people’s calls, but it wasn’t a coup d’etat,” he told reporters.
Prime Minister Ruphin Fortunat Zafisambo, a military general appointed after Rajoelina dismissed his predecessor under pressure from demonstrators, said the government was “fully ready to listen and engage in dialogue with all factions – youth, unions or the military”.
Separately, the country’s Senate announced in a statement that Senate President General Richard Ravalomanana – a close ally of Rajoelina’s – had been removed from office, citing “the current political situation in Madagascar and in response to the Malagasy people’s aspirations for stability, justice, and transparent governance.”
People on the streets of Antananarivo were pleased about the announcement, said Al Jazeera’s Fahmida Miller, reporting from the city’s Independence Square on Sunday.
“People here say that his dismissal is important because it could mean that Andry Rajoelina could leave office. We don’t know if that’s the case; it could be that the Senate is trying to appease Malagasies who have been out protesting on the streets,” she said, but added that this in addition to CAPSAT coming out in support of the protesters has given many hope.
“What we can say is that Madagascar is in crisis,” Miller said. “[But] people here are optimistic that there is change coming. They call it a revolution. People here have given Andry Rajoelina one day to leave office … They are demanding that he leave office, they are also demanding that he apologise for the people who have been killed [by security forces].”
Madagascar’s army has a long history of intervening in politics during crises. Since independence from France in 1960, it has backed or led several power shifts, including coups in the 1970s and in 2009, when it helped oust President Marc Ravalomanana and bring Antananarivo’s reformist mayor, Rajoelina, to power.
Though the military has stayed mostly in the background in recent years, it remains an influential force in the country’s often fragile political landscape.
These "Gen Z" revolutions sound pretty color revolutiony to me. Can't judge though until things play out. I think geopolitical rivalries are heating up ahead of the big game over Taiwan coming up in a year or two. I see increasing signs that China has resigned itself to the reality of military confrontation and they're planning on starting things off on their own initiative. The US for its part seems to be preparing for 2027-28, but measures seem a bit half-assed and insufficient. It seems like there are planners in the US military who realize that it's just not going to work, but the political leadership isn't really willing to entertain that notion just yet. China meanwhile is catching up in military technology at a rapid pace and has so much spare industrial capacity that they can easily use to flood US defenses with autonomous weapons systems. I just really hope the US backs down, and if things get hot between the US and China, I hope we pull out of the conflict before the Chinese start hitting the mainland US in earnest. If the US stays in I think it's pretty likely we'll see mass destruction of our cities by drone swarms, even if the conflict doesn't go nuclear. The US is a rich nation, even without the imperial exploitation, much like Britain, it simply isn't worth it to go all in on holding on to imperial power - even more so than Britain because we're bigger and richer and more capable of autarkic development. A lot is going to depend on the mindsets of the individuals in decision-making positions.
Anyway, sorry for the rant, this stuff has been on my mind lately.
The PRC would be unlikely to do anything to the US mainland other than electronic warfare IMO. Any direct physical attacks would be a huge escalation that the PRC could simply avoid by sticking to the actual objective of reintegration. Perhaps there would be physical attacks on some US territory in the pacific, but the PRC's biggest advantage is waging war within range of their own coastline. Perhaps there would be drone swarms on US pacific bases, but beyond that they simply do not have the range to reach the US without great risk to more important PLA Navy assets
I think it's pretty likely we'll see mass destruction of our cities by drone swarms
Launched from where? Most drones don't have the range to cross the Atlantic. They are too slow. China would have to park ships off the coast of the US, which they won't do because that would be giving up their biggest advantage against the US navy which is fighting in proximity to their own mainland. If China hits US cities it will be with ballistic missiles. Even that is unlikely because there are much more high value targets they would likely prioritize. If US cities are getting hit it's a good chance the conflict has gone nuclear.

🚨 Resistance security forces completed two successful operations against collaborator and outlaw militias in the #Gaza Strip.
The first mission targeted a criminal militia in Al-Sabra neighborhood in Gaza City, where security forces seized control of the area before killing and arresting dozens of militants. Sources in Gaza confirmed that the group had refused to surrender themselves to security forces in exchange for amnesty.
The second mission targeted a militia in Khan Younis, southern Gaza Strip. Over 58 members of the militia were arrested following intense clashes. One member, confirmed to be a spy for the occupation, was executed.
Beginning tomorrow, internal security forces in Gaza will open a weeklong window for outlaw militants to surrender themselves in exchange for amnesty.
Hamas accuses Israel of ‘manipulating’ list of prisoners to be freed
Hamas senior official Ghazi Hamad tells Al Jazeera that Israel is not playing fair with the list of Palestinian prisoners it agreed to free in exchange for captives held in Gaza.
“The occupation is manipulating the lists of prisoners and even evading the Americans,” Hamad said.
About 250 prisoners serving life sentences are expected to be released on Monday along with 1,500 others detained in Gaza since the war began.
Hamas has demanded the release of prominent Palestinian Marwan Barghouti, but it’s unclear if Israel will free him.
