US Troops Enter Israel as Russian Drone Attacks Israeli Base

if the Americans get involved it would be devastating because Iran would be forced to retaliate and it would strike American bases in the Persian Gulf region and those family dictatorships or family governments or states that host those bases will be seen as hostile and their oil and gas assets and INF infrastructure will be targets it will be seen part of as part of the aggression the Iraqi resistance has promised to sweep the Americans out of Iraq that would lead to a global economic catastrophe it would be worse than 1929 no one wants that US troops

enter Israel as a Russian drone launched by Hezbollah strikes a Israeli base resulting in over 70 casualties on top of that unifil says that Israeli soldiers purposefully attacked unul personnel which resulted in two injuries a spokesperson for un has said and I quote attacks against peacekeepers are in the breach of international law including International humanitarian law and they may constitute War crime just for some background unifil forces have been in Lebanon on the Israeli border since 1978 to maintain peace the group is headed by Irish troops and Israel has recently asked them to evacuate the

compound ever since Israel has started the ground invasion of Lebanon this request actually caused a bit of tensions between the Irish president and Israel now the situation has escalated even more as unifold troops are getting wounded Israel has denied purposefully targeting unifold troops and in fact prime minister Netanyahu released a video statement explaining the whole situation so let's get into that but first like always be sure to hit the like button down below YouTube is not a big fan of War related videos so sometimes our videos do get punished in the algorithm so your likes

help us out tremendously let's watch the clip now the charge that Israel deliberately attacked unifil Personnel is completely false it's exactly the opposite Israel repeatedly asks unifil to get out of H's way it repeatedly asked them to temporarily leave the combat zone which is right next to Israel's border with Lebanon in fact on the day that Israel began its ground operation next to our border with Lebanon we asked them specifically please leave this area so you're not harmed Israel is not fighting unifo it's not fighting the people of Lebanon it is fighting Iran's proxy kisala

which uses Lebanese territory to attack Israel kisala attacked Israel last year without any provocation on October 8th a day after the Hamas Massacre and it's continued to attack us ever since by launching over 10,000 rockets and missiles in Israel hasbalah uses unial facilities and positions as cover while it attacks Israeli cities and communities these attacks have claimed the lives of many Israelis including yesterday Israel has every right to defend itself against kisala and will continue to do so we regret any armed done to UniFi personnel and the the IDF is doing its utmost to prevent

such incidents but the best way to ensure the safety of unifil personnel is for unifil to heed Israel's request and to temporarily get out of Harm's Way now we'll get into the US troops and the Russian drones all in one second one interesting thing that unifil said was that IDF forces entered one of its Post in southern Lebanon and fired smoke shells that caused illnesses among peacekeepers on this comment Israel actually admits that that did happen but they go on to add that all that happened because IDF was trying to evacuate wounded soldiers that were

under Fire IDF says that based on initial investigation it appears that during the incident and for the evacuation two tanks reversed into a spot where they couldn't have gone elsewhere because they were under Fire also important to note IDF says that they maintained continuous contact with UNIF throughout the entire incident now let's get into a Israeli base that was attacked that caused more than 70 casualties allegedly that happened with a Russian drone at least that's what the Israeli media is reporting now the big reason this attack is being talked about pretty much everywhere is because

this attack was a major failure of the Israeli air defense system the Drone that attacked the base went undetected by the Iron Dome or I guess the whole Israeli air defense system and that's why it was able to do so much damage in fact it is being reported that this was the most deadliest attack away from the front lines since October 7th last year this happened the same day us announced that we'll give them air defense and send 100 soldiers 100 American troops to manage the air defense now we'll get into that but first I

have some clips from the aftermath of this drone strike like right after it happened so let's watch that first four Teenage IDF soldiers have been killed in a Hezbollah drone attack on an Israeli military base it's one of the biggest attacks against an Israeli position since the war started although few details were initially released it was confirmed that a UAV launch from Lebanon targeted the army base in benyamina located between haer and Tel Aviv more than 50 people were injured most of whom were thought to have been in a communal Canteen at the time of

the attack some of the injured were rushed to hospitals with helicopters deployed to the site seven people were severely wounded the Drone managed to evade Israel's usually stringent air defense system raising serious concerns this comes as heavy Israeli shelling continues to Target Beirut and Southern Lebanon with strikes killing 51 people across the country on Sunday Israeli air strikes have caused serious damage to parts of Lebanon with Drone footage revealing the devastation to this Marketplace in Nea where a mosque and surrounding buildings were battered by Israeli attacks over the weekend meanwhile on the ground the IDF

are targeting Hezbollah tunnels in this video the IDF claimed to have found a tunnel a few hundred M from a un peacekeeping Force Base along the border the tunnel contained a weapon cache with explosives bullets and camouflage uniforms came here put the UN has accused the IDF of forcing its way into a peacekeeping base in southern Lebanon they claimed two IDF tanks destroyed the base's main gate and fired rounds nearby Israel says it encroached on the position to evacuate injured soldiers this comes after Israel issued repeated warnings urging the UN to leave Southern Lebanon also

this is what IDF spokesperson Daniel hagari had to say about how the UAV the Drone was able to get in without being detected we are now busy contacting their families all of the soldiers at the base were instructed to call home and update their families that they are okay we are managing the incident we will learn from and investigate the incident how a UAV entered without an alert at the base the threat of uavs is a threat we are dealing with since the beginning of the war we need an improvement to our defense now some

Israeli media has reported that this drone was Russian which definitely makes sense we have talked about this on our podcast too chaos and peace but Russia just keeps supporting these groups that cause chaos all around the world that way people can take attention off of Ukraine here's that clip with Ben hajes Iran provides drones and ballistic missiles and other things to Russia which by the way keep that in mind Russia Great Russia depends on Iran and North Korea for ammunition and drones okay I mean that gives you some sense of the state of the Russian

economy and the and the defense industry uh and it's possible because we have not stopped Russia from exporting oil and gas to China and India um I I do believe that the the Middle East and the Russia Ukraine war are connected that uh because Iran has no friends but Russia they depend on Russia for things and Russia depends on Iran for things and so um if Israel is able to severely damage Iran's ability uh their defensive capabilities um they would be less able to keep just sending ammunition and weapons up to Russia as well as

to their own proxies like Hezbollah and and Hamas and the houthis uh and if if we help Ukraine defeat Russia then Iran becomes isolated as would North Korea so you know success in both of these if we're thinking strategically think strategically and organize for victory with all of our allies and and use our economic power and you help Ukraine defeat Russia that leads to the isolation of Iran which is then less capable of helping their three Proxes it leads to the isolation of North Korea who will have no friends and then the Chinese will say

whoa the West the West really does have the political will the military capability and Industrial capacity to do all these things uh what is North Korea's interest of course North Korea uh is in a a place where they have the South uh South Korea very prosperous also with a very capable military and about 30,000 US troops in South Korea so North Korea has always had this uh to protect the regime now the third generation of chims um so what what is their strategic interest obviously it's U regime survival number one uh China is not an

ally of North Korea although I think the CH because the Chinese know that if if when Korea North Korea finally does implode because of all the you know enormous problems that North Korea has in terms of starvation of their own people um at some point does that crack I don't know but you'll have millions of really hungry North Koreans pouring into China so China um keeps an eye on that and I think the Chinese like having a buffer between them and a us-backed South Korea um North Korea does have friend though in Russia uh I

mean you remember Putin was just there not too long ago and so um I think that there's a a relationship that's based on U shared some shared objectives and probably Russia is able to pay North Korea a lot of money for this ammunition that they get by selling oil to India and China oil and gas still um now what we don't know is the quality of the ammunition that's been provided i' I've seen mixed reports but even if 50% of it was rotten 50% of 3 million that's a lot of artillery ammunition so it's not

inconsequential um uh and I'm I'm hoping that at one point uh the ukrainians or somebody will figure out a way to disrupt this supply chain the ukrainians did destroy a railroad tunnel early in the process but that was repaired or bypassed uh and so it's going to take a sustained effort to really disrupt this effort where North Korea moves Ammunition by its ship up to Russia to a Russian port and then it gets on trains uh and and moves across to uh moves across Russia to Ukraine now how many Ukraine North Korean troops are there

not surprised that there would be officers that are there whether it's technical help I don't I've heard that the North Koreans were going to provide engineering units for example combat engineers I I can't assess the quality of what they've provided yet the this would be a time where the United States and South Korea should remind North Korea that there's a very large potent South Korean force with a large American contingent in South Korea uh to make sure that North Korea doesn't feel like they can just take everything they have and give it to Russia but

the more important story here is the fact that Hezbollah claimed the responsibility for this attack and they went into detail as to how they were able to pull it off how they were able to fool the air defenses according to them they first attacked on the north side of Israel just with missiles and stuff that distracted the air defenses and the drones came in from the south now here's a clip that explains it a little better than I did so Hezbollah over recent days has been threatening to Target bases and collections of of of Israeli

troops away from the border this is something that it's been threatening to do now after this strike tonight they claimed that this was the act of a suicide drone and Hezbollah describes a scenario where they appear to have tried to cheated it or fooled the uh defense the air defense systems uh here in Israel they fired they say lots of rockets dozens of rockets into Northern Israel and then after that with the intention they say of confusing the air defense systems and then send a a squad of uh suicide drones to Target the base now

that may be an overstatement of what they did but it clearly shows that Hezbollah has been trying to find over recent weeks a way to get around the air defense systems here now the same day in fact before the Israeli base attack us announced that it will be giving Israel a terminal high altitude area defense battery which is the air defense system or the Tad air defense system and 100 troops along with it to manage the system to run the system now of course this in itself is an important news but the implication of this

may be a little bit more important and the fact is that us is strengthening the Israeli air defense May mean that Israel has decided what kind of attack they going to carry out against Iran in retaliation to the October 1 ballistic missile attack and US probably believes that there will be a retaliation and it's likely going to be a stronger retaliation than what happened in OCT October 1st so maybe that's why us is giving the pad system now another important response that happened because of this was Iran publicly announced that it will no longer be

having any indirect communication with USA I guess indirect what they really mean is all this back Channel diplomacy that goes on no more of that basically that's what Iran is saying now here's a clip discussing that in more detail well I think it is significant for a couple of reasons symbolically it is signaling to the and especially to the Iranians that the United States is standing by Israel in the face of Iranian aggression and I think it's sending to the Israelis uh that the United States uh has its back this system is designed that ballistic

missiles and that is something that Israel's existing systems really aren't structured to do and so it provides another layer of defense capability and it suggests that Israel is going to launch a significant attack against Iran that would have the Iranians responding with their ballistic missiles so all of this is anticipatory you can sort of tease it out and think about how it might play its way out but again a very strong signal to the Iranians that the US is in this fight as well interesting there you think it's a preparation uh when Israel retaliates for

that original ballistic missile attack that Iran will then come back it doesn't suggest to you that although the recent the Iranian ballistic missile strength I think now of almost two weeks ago it did little damage but I think Israel and America were worried that some got through it could have done damage and there is potential for much more damage in further Iranian ballistic missile strikes hence sending Thad I think that's exactly right I think just under 200 of these ballistic missiles some did get through uh they have many more thousands of missiles and drones that

they could send uh overwhelming Israel's defenses and that's why I think the United States is as much deterrence as it is defense uh and we'll have to see how the Iranians respond assuming that the Israeli strike now over the last 3 days some of our videos have gotten demonetized because YouTube considers the content we covered to be sensitive and violent now that's just the reality of the war and of course it sucks that we are not able to to monetize some of our videos but what makes the situation even worse is the fact that when

YouTube demonetizes a video it basically stops promoting that video to you guys that means if you haven't seen that news you may never see it even though you're subscribed to the channel now this kind of makes sense cuz YouTube is a private company as in it wants to make money and when a video doesn't make YouTube money it doesn't want to promote that video but sometimes that means some important news that is demonetized may not get to you guys and and to solve this big problem we launched Global Recaps a geopolitical newsletter that covers world

forth that has been going on over the unifold troops Irish forces in Lebanon are getting concerned as Israeli ground offensive continues near their Base According to UN agency IDF forces are currently few hundred meters from the camp un 652 which is the Irish base as all countries are working together to resolve the situation before things get out of hand prime minister Netanyahu has released yet another statement calling for Lebanese people to rise up against Hezbollah all the while the world is still waiting to see what the Israeli response will be after 200 ballistic missiles were

fired on the nation by Iran so let's get into all that and more in today's video starting with netanyahu's message to the Lebanese people this is a message to the people of Lebanon do you remember when your country was called the pearl of the Middle East I do so what happened to Lebanon a gang of tyrants and terrorists destroyed it that's what happened Lebanon was once known for its tolerance for its beauty today it's a place of chaos a place of War Israel withdrew from Lebanon 25 years ago but the country that actually conquered Lebanon

is not Israel it's Iran Iran which finances and arms kbal to serve Iran's interest at lebanon's expense hasbalah has turned Lebanon into a stockpile of ammunition and weapons and a forward Iranian military base just one day after the October 7th Massacre a year ago heala joined the war against Israel it launched an unprovoked attack on our cities and on our citizens it has since fired over 8,000 missiles at Israel killing civilians without distinctions Jews Christians Muslims and Drews Israel has decided to put an end to this we've decided to do whatever is necessary to return

our people safely to their homes Israel has a right to defend itself Israel also has a right to win and Israel will win we've degraded kis bala's capabilities we took out thousands of terrorists including Nala himself and Nala's replacement and the replacement of his replacement today balah is weaker than it's been for many many years now you the Lebanese people you stand at a significant Crossroads it is your choice you can now take back your country you can return it to a path of peace and prosperity if you don't heala will continue to try to

fight Israel from densely populated areas at your expense it doesn't care if Lebanon is dragged into a wider War Christians Jews Muslims sunnis and Shiites all of you are suffering because of kah's futle war against Israel today I ask every mother and every father in Lebanon a simple question is it worth it because it doesn't have to be that way I know you want a better future for your children so I'm speaking to all of you today there is a better way a better way for your children for your cities for your Villages for your

country you deserve to restore Lebanon to its days of Tranquility you deserve a Lebanon that is different one country one flag one people don't let these terrorists destroy your future any more than they've already done stand up and take your country back you have an opportunity that hasn't existed in decades an opportunity to take care of the future of your children and grandchildren you have an opportunity to save Leon before it falls into the abyss of a long war that will lead to destruction and suffering like we see in Gaza it doesn't have to be

sometimes the content can get buried in the algorithm that's where yikes help us out tremendously so thank you so much and let's again this brings us to the Ireland Israel back and forth unifil or United Nations interim force in Lebanon recently put out a statement saying that the idf's proximity to an outpost where a number of Irish troops are stationed is concerning you see there are about 10,000 UN peacekeeper soldiers in Lebanon headed by Ireland Irish troops have been in the region since 1978 and currently there are about 350 Irish Personnel in the country is

Israel did request SL demand that un troops be evacuated from the region which prompted a angry response from the Irish Prime Minister Michael D Higgins calling the demand outrageous and an insult to un which is the most important organization in the world IDF has released a statement saying that they are in constant communication with unifil to make sure no un peacekeepers are hurt as the Israeli ground offensive continues in southern Lebanon the Israeli military announced on Tuesday Tuesday that a new division of soldiers the 146th was operating in the region the Israeli military has publicly

said that four different divisions have sent troops across the border into Lebanon though it has not publicly disclosed how many soldiers are involved in The Invasion or how many each division has contributed all this is happening while Israel is busy deciding how to properly respond to Iran's ballistic missile attack that happened last week as that's happening Iran issues its strong EST warning yet saying that if any Gulf State allows Israel or the US to use their airspace for air strikes against Iran the Islamic regime will retaliate against all Gulf States as I'm recording this there's

also news that President Biden is expected to hold a crucial phone call on wenesday morning with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu what makes this even more crucial is the fact that this is the first phone call between the two leaders in months which is unprecedented considering how much is going on in the Middle East according to two Israeli officials the Israel's retaliation is expected to be significant and will likely include a combination of air strikes on Military Targets in Iran and clandestine attacks like the one that killed Hamas leader isal hania in tan Israel has

also weighed potential strikes on Iran's oil infrastructure which President Biden's signal he would oppose now many experts do believe that we are closer to the end in the middle Middle East conflict so how Israel retaliates against Iran is extremely important because Israel has an opportunity to stop Iran's nuclear ambition once and for all here's former US ambassador Mark Wallace explaining this exact thing I think we're coming to the climax I think that um after I was speaking to some colleagues in the National Security Community this morning and you know the the regime has been around

since 7879 um and I think really the the intensity of this Shadow conflict has been going on 253 years and I I sense that it's coming to a head right now because for far too long the West has wanted to stick its head in the sand and indulge Iran's prevarications its lies its overstatement and I think Iran is being revealed for its lies it didn't need a nuclear program for so many reasons it has the some of the largest oil and gas reserves um its so so-called support of all these proxies was was actually quite

U malign and what's revealing is that they really these proxies are the Canon fod of the regime the regime is tenuously holding to power in Iran the Ayatollah is facing a dramatic succession moment there's only been two Ayatollah in history the question is will there be a third and it sure seems to me that the Iranians are only concerned about clinging to power exercise ing dominion over the Iranian people while trying to um convince their proxies that they're behind them and this missile attack last night um while largely ineffective was the largest ballistic missile attack

of any country on another country in history and I think it brings it to a climax finally I think certainly Israel is going to strike back and I think the um United States will be compelled to support those strikes and participate in them in some way in my um my colleague Governor Jeb Bush and I put out a statement calling unequivocally for Israel with the support of the United States to to strike a comprehensive array of Iranian t uh military targets from irgc facilities missile facilities um to their nuclear facilities that must happen and if

it doesn't uh we are making the world a much more dangerous place lastly here's the segment we did when Israel eliminated hezbollah's leader Hassan nasal big breaking news it seems just an hour ago IDF targeted hezbollah's Main Headquarters and early reports show that the Hezbollah leader Hassan nasal was inside the building when the strike happened before we get into the reports that he was inside let's listen to the statement that IDF released right after the strike a short while ago IDF conducted a precise strike on the central headquarters of the hasbullah terror organization embedded under

residential buildings in the heart of dahi in beut right after the strikes the IDF spokesperson gave a video statement to that we'll watch in a sec but this was around an hour ago around 11: a.m. CST at that point there were no reports of the hasbullah leader being inside the headquarters but the report started coming out 1 hour after the strike so let's watch the statement real quick moments ago the Israel Defense Forces carried out a precise strike on the central headquarter of the kisala terror organization that served as a epicenter ofis bala's Terror kis

bala's Central headquarter was intentionally built under residential buildings in the heart of the D in Beirut as part of kisala strategy of using Lebanese people as human shields on October 8th kisala started attacking Israel after almost a year of kisala Fire firing Rockets missiles and suicide drones at Israeli civilians after almost a year of Israel warning the world and telling them that kisala must be stopped Israel is doing what every sovereign state in the world would do if they had a terror organization that seeks their destruction on their border taking the necessary action to protect

our people so that Israeli families can leave their homes safely and securely what's a little bit more interesting is right when the strikes were happening around the same time Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was in un was in New York giving the speech and some of the clips from the speech seemed like they were sending a coded message so let's watch that real quick but before that for some reason YouTube doesn't consider us a news channel because we're not traditional media and that means whenever we say stuff like strike or Hezbollah our videos get buried

in the YouTube algorithm so if you can please just hit the like button below share this video on social media that helps us out tremendously when it comes to the YouTube algorithm now let's listen to the speech Mr President ladies and gentlemen I didn't intend to come here this year my country is at War fighting for its life but after I heard the lies and Slanders leveled at my country by many of the speakers at this Podium I decided to come here and set the record straight I decided to come here to speak for my

people to speak for my country to to speak for the truth and here's the truth Israel seeks peace Israel yearns for peace Israel has made peace and will make peace again yet we Face Savage enemies who seek our Annihilation and we must defend ourselves against these Savage murderers our enemies seek not only to destroy us they seek to destroy our common civilization and return all of us to a Dark Age of tyranny and Terr I have a message for the tyrants of Terran if you strike us we will strike you there is no place there

is no place in Iran that the long arm of Israel cannot reach and that's true of the entire Middle East here you can see from the picture that was published after the strikes and the speech the prime minister is holding a security consultation on a secure line from what seems like a small hotel room now as I said there are reports that Hassan nasal was eliminated and we'll get into that just in a sec but what confirms that at the very least this strike was a huge deal was the fact that the prime minister of

Israel is now cutting his trip short to New York and he's flying back to Israel in just fews hours it is highly unusual for Israeli Prime Ministers to travel on Sabbat the only exception to this rule is if the matter is life and death now here are few sources that have been confirming that he was potentially killed in the strike one of them being on your screen the next one here but there were some sources confirming that he was just injured so I guess one thing that's important to point out that even considering both sides

of the reports one thing that that's for sure that he was in the building now as I'm editing the video if the more information does come out I'll put it right here here's hezbollah's chain of command that mostly seems to be eliminated by now and Hassan nazal is still questionable but if he's eliminated too I'm sure that will be a big hit for Iran who has invested decades and hundreds of millions of dollars in proing up Hezbollah on Israel's border
