Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah ‘suffocated in agony’ from toxic fumes inside bunker, Israeli report claims

An Israeli news outlet has claimed Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah may have “suffocated” from toxic gasses inside his secret bunker after it was demolished by an Israeli airstrike.

Officials pulled Nasrallah out of the bunker on Sunday, finding his body intact with no visible wounds on him, Israel’s Channel 12 reported.

This suggested he was buried by rubble after 80 tons of bunker-busting bombs were dropped on his fortified hideout on Friday,

The Israeli outlet claims the cave-in caused the 64-year-old to suffocate and die in “agony” as the room filled with fumes from the smoke and explosions.

“we bombed a compound full of children, and it just turned out that they were all child wives. yeah, pretty lucky right? we also found out hamas and hezbollah had been using this compound as a hideout, so it was a valid military target anyway”

are you genuinely this fucking stupid

[pattern-recognition]

The situation in regards to escalation of the ground war in Gaza is incredibly frustrating. As of yesterday, the IOF invasion is de facto in process, however their talking heads are deliberately avoiding the phraseology they constructed their previous threats around. Hezbollah has explicitly said they would respond should the Israelis launch a full ground offensive, and Iran has vaguely gestured in the direction that they would do something in parity, and thus out of fear of reprisal and their American handlers gently tugging at the leash behind closed doors, the Israelis are deliberately avoiding using language implying totality. They’re “extending the scope of their operations,” “targeting the hideouts of saboteurs,” anything but “launching the ground invasion.” This implicitly leaves a way out for Hezbollah, to both their and the Israeli’s advantage. Though it may seem grotesquely ironic given the situation, with the IOF raising Gaza to the ground with the kind of ordinance the Nazis could have only dreamed about during the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, but leaving a controlled corridor into which the enemy can flee is a part of military strategy gospel. Even if there are tanks in the street, if the word isn’t spoken the Israel can avoid a two front war and break apart Gaza piecemeal while Hezbollah can sit content with throwing pot shots at Merkavas across the border ‘til kingdom come, both keeping their promises. It’s obvious that if Iran does act, they’re going to have to do so without the support of the rest of the Arabic world. The bourgeois of Egypt, Jordan, etc are paying lip service in support of the resistance because of the overwhelming public support for Palestine domestically, yet materially they’re sticking to the status quo and avoiding treading too hard on uncle sam’s shoes. It’s a deliberate strategy to maintain their power base, and it bears clarifying that even bourgeois in the periphery are still bourgeois and will act solely in the interest of their class. Knowing that the Arab world is non-confrontational, Iran would be forced to rely on the worst case scenario partners, China and Russia, and no one else. The former is famously pacifist, being the only world power seriously committed to diplomacy in the current climate, and even if everyone in Beijing woke up tomorrow with an unprecedented enthusiasm for intervention, China is about as well prepared for a middle eastern conflict, even if it only extends to supplying lend lease which in most potentialities it would, as a snowball is for a summer in hell. Russia is of course Russia. Not only do they have their own US-backed war to deal with at the moment, but if the annexation of Artsakh is any indication they’re more than happy to sit on their ass while their allies get overrun, and Iran isn’t even a CTSO member. The options are so dire though purely because of the US leviathan standing behind its snarling lapdog, and those atomic spearheads the Israelis have thus far kept holstered but are itching to draw. The Arab capitalists have a clear avenue to sit tight and keep accumulating wealth, the Israelis have complete and unwavering support for their genocide; the only people who lose are the Palestinians. I hope I’m wrong

“we bombed this compound full of children, and it turned out they all just happened to be child brides. yeah the main guy convinced them he was god and forced them to marry him, pretty lucky for us that we burned down the right compound. we also found out hamas and hezbollah were using it as a hideout, so it was a valid military target anyway”

Just because the ATF fucked up the way cops keep fucking up raids doesn’t mean I have to join your militia-church that believes David Koresh was actually the second coming of Christ.

How many people did the FBI and DEA, and local law enforcement kill during drug raids in 1993? Sorry I don’t feel sympathy for the guy who chose to die in a siege because he thought he was god, and convinced dozens more to do the same. ATF fuckups aside, he, and his adult followers had every chance to walk out. His child brides didn’t have a choice. Koresh killed them, both figuratively, but also literally by shooting them after his followers set the compound on fire.

Know All Secrets and Purpose Behind the Hezbollah Bunker

This is why Hezbollah built a bunker under the hospital, a big revelation was made after the recovery of the treasure.

Last month, in September, Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah died in Lebanon's capital Beirut. The bunker in which Hassan Nasrallah was hiding was bombed by Israeli fighter jets. Now, about three weeks after Hassan's death, the Israeli Air Force has released a video. In this video, a treasure is shown in the ground right below a hospital next to Hassan Nasrallah's bunker, which has stunned the whole world. And there is discussion about this treasure everywhere. What is the reality of this treasure? Let's find out. 28 September 2024, 1.30 pm, Dehi - Lebanon

This was the date and time when the Israeli Air Force bombed a special building and a bunker built under the building in the Dahiya area of ​​​​Beirut, the capital of Lebanon, with its fighter jet. Till now the Israeli Air Force had the news that some people of Hezbollah were present under this building and bunker. But the news that came out from inside the bunker after this shocked the whole world. Actually, Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah also died in this airstrike.

Hassan Nasrallah had never come in front of the world in 18 years

Hassan Nasrallah's death was surprising even for Israel itself. The reason was that Nasrallah had never come in front of the world in the last 18 years. Nasrallah was last seen in public 18 years ago. This was the Nasrallah who had never spent a single night at one place in these 18 years. In such a situation, how did Israel get information about this secret hideout of Hassan Nasrallah? If the news is to be believed, then perhaps the information about Nasrallah's whereabouts was given by none other than the Iranian Kurdish Force Chief Ismail Kani himself. And the news about Kani is that he has been under house arrest in Tehran for the last 3 weeks.

Bunkers were built under the hospital

Israel had dropped bombs in the Dahiya area of ​​Beirut and Hassan Nasrallah died hiding in a bunker there. Actually, this is a residential area of ​​Dahiya. There is a hospital in this area. The name of this hospital is Al-Sahal Hospital. A bunker was built under a part of this hospital. But the path to this bunker does not go through the hospital. There are many houses around the hospital. Among them is a large residential compound consisting of 6 houses. Under the same compound, the Hezbollah chief had built some bunkers. In which he used to hide. One such bunker was also built underground, right under the hospital. But Hassan Nasrallah or his other commanders did not hide in this bunker built under the hospital. Rather, they used this bunker to keep the money that was to be used in the operation against Israel.

500 million dollars and treasure found in the bunker

Israeli Defense Force (IDF) spokesperson Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari made a sensational disclosure while talking to the media. Not only did he make the disclosure but also released a video and some graphics. According to Hagari, Hezbollah had kept about 500 million dollars, i.e. in Indian currency, gold worth about 42 billion and 4 crore rupees and several million dollars in cash in the bunker built right under that hospital.

Hezbollah's financial headquarters was in the bunker!

According to the pictures released by the Israeli Defense Force, Al-Sahal Hospital is in the middle. This hospital has two entry and exit points. There are two buildings in front and behind the hospital. One is Al-Ahmadi Building and on the other side is Center Al-Sahal Building. Bunkers were built under these two buildings and a part of that bunker was right under that hospital. Hezbollah used the same bunker under the hospital to keep its wealth. That is, in a way, it was Hezbollah's financial headquarters.

Dollars and gold were present in half of the bunker

There were many rooms inside this bunker. There were beds in the rooms. That means there was complete arrangement for someone to stay here for a long time. Not only this, this bunker also had all the weapons with which Hezbollah could fight its enemies. Or could retaliate against them. Gold and dollars worth more than half a billion were kept in one part of this bunker. The place where the gold and money were kept is right below the hospital. That means this place was built thoughtfully. Hezbollah was sure that Israel would never bomb the hospital. Therefore, this bunker and the money kept in the bunker will always be safe.

This is how Hezbollah used to get financial help

The question is where did Hezbollah get so much money from? According to the Israeli Defense Force, Hezbollah has two ways of financing itself. First, the Al Qadil Hassan Association in Lebanon helps Hezbollah by collecting donations from Lebanese people or taking a share from working people. Secondly, Iran helps Hezbollah the most financially. According to the IDF, the Iranian Kurdish forces deliver bags full of money and gold to the Iranian embassy in Beirut. This money, which reaches Beirut via plane, is given to Hezbollah.

Hezbollah people also ran factories

According to IDF, apart from these two sources, Hezbollah has another source of income. Hezbollah has set up many factories in Lebanon, Yemen, Syria and Turkey. A part of their income also goes into Hezbollah's account. Hezbollah's Unit 4004 keeps accounts of all these factories.

This treasure will be useful for Lebanon

Now the question is whether the Israeli Defense Force took away the gold and cash worth about half a billion rupees that is inside this bunker built under Al-Sahal Hospital. So according to the IDF, this is not the case. All this money is still present in that bunker under the same hospital. The IDF has said that the Lebanese government, which is struggling with a poor financial condition, can use this money for the welfare of the people. The IDF has also said that it will not target the Al-Sahal Hospital. However, the IDF also clarified that it is constantly monitoring this hospital through satellite. Not only this, as evidence, the IDF also presented pictures of all the activities of the hospital monitored by satellite.

Israel's fight is not with the citizens of Lebanon. However, along with this, the IDF has also threatened Lebanon and international organizations that Hezbollah should not be allowed to use this money. Because they keep an eye on the hospital building all the time. The IDF spokesperson also said that Israel's fight is not with the citizens of Lebanon but with Hezbollah. However, despite this threat from the Israeli Defense Force, it is unlikely that the Lebanese government will be able to use the money kept under the hospital bunker.

Lebanon has two governments!

The biggest reason for this is that the entire area of ​​Dahiya in southern Beirut where this hospital is located is under the control of Hezbollah. Actually, two governments run simultaneously in Lebanon's capital Beirut. One of these is the elected government of Lebanon. Which is headed by Prime Minister Najib Mikati. On the other hand, this area of ​​Dahiya is completely under the control of Hezbollah. Here, the Lebanese government, police or army are not under anyone's control.

Hezbollah's occupation of Maroun al-Ras

The last election in Lebanon was held in May 2022. There are a total of 128 seats in the Lebanese Parliament. But no one got a majority. The post of President of Lebanon is vacant since 2022. The Prime Minister there is also a caretaker. Maroun al-Ras is one of the two parts of Lebanon's capital Beirut. This is the area of ​​Beirut which is occupied not by the Lebanese government but by Hezbollah. And Hezbollah's headquarters is also in this occupied area of ​​Beirut.

Arab countries silent on Israeli attack

The entire area in the bunker where Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah died is also under the control of Hezbollah. The area of ​​Lebanon where the Israeli army is currently fighting a ground war is also under the control of Hezbollah. This is the reason why Arab countries are not speaking openly about the Israeli attack on Lebanon. Because in their view, this attack by Israel is not on Lebanon or the people of Lebanon but on Hezbollah-occupied Lebanon.

Both Lebanon and Gaza are bearing the brunt of today's attack on Israel this year.

October 7 - by Joseph Muyuela

Israel. Gaza. Beirut. The West Bank.

Jerusalem was, from its inception, asunder torn.

Israel's Jerusalem east, Palestine's Jerusalem west.

The Holy Land, in truth belonging to the people,

de facto belongs to autarchs and terrorists.

Something blares. In my ears? In the skies, lights glare.

The tea, left to boil in the teapot overnight, has

finally bubbled to the brim, the lid blowing off and

a war coming to all.

Israel counts around 1,200 civilians whose stories are

like candles snuffed.

The perpetrator? Hamas.

251 Israelis' stories are abruptly snatched and taken away,

like a thief perusing a shelf of books in a library and taking

as many books as it could find, taking them back to

his little hideout and defiling the casing, ripping out the

pages and undoing the book bindings.

Israel needs to defend itself, but how?

I know. 41,000 (and counting) dead Palestinians.

Hamas took the lid off the teapot. Hezbollah

smashed the teapot into a million pieces and let all

the chamomile bleed onto the carpet. October 8.

I'd make an analogy for the Houthis, but I

can't think of one.

All of these terrorists organizations are proxies for

another government, a threat so domineering, yet

hiding cowardly behind the people who let the teapot

simmer before shattering it, who hide behind the

thieves that break into the library to steal and defile books.

This is the cost of war, but on a scale unimaginable.

Not just 1 teapot shattered or left to simmer, but millions.

Yet the world, watching in either silence or with an

extremist eye, lets this teapot-shattering, book-defiling war

go on without any measure in place to ensure civilian safety.

All civilians are assumed terrorists, or otherwise brushed

off as the byproduct of war.

Civilians resist terrorists on all sides as the

uninformed hallow terrorism. Children become child

soldiers or are left behind to be swallowed by the ash clouds

and mud giants collapsing upon them. The displaced

clamor for safety in the next humanitarian zone.

The hungry starve. The impoverished are stripped

by both sides of charity.

Always on the precipice of a ceasefire, always on the

verge of a hostage deal, always on the edge of war.

Enlightenment.

Love as an imperative.

Perhaps at the end of the tunnel, there is light.

People come to realizations, find common grievances.

Netanyahu. Hamas. Terrorism. These, we all hate.

Wounds mended, aggravation healed. Perhaps

the end of the tunnel is closer than we think, so much so

'tis not only us reaching out to the light, but the light–

in its elegance and grace–reaching out to us.

I'm sorry. I don't know what to write.

Israel killed Hezbollah leader Nasrallah with 80 tons of bunker-buster bombs after spies spent years penetrating his entire network

The devastating airstrike that killed Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah was the result of a years-long operation by Israeli intelligence that penetrated the terror leader’s entire network — allowing him to be tracked to his underground command center in Beirut.

The Israeli military used 80 tons of specially designed bunker-busting bombs to blast through the heavily fortified hideout on Friday and kill the slippery Nasrallah — who had survived multiple previous attempts to assassinate him.

Nasrallah’s death was exactly what Israel had been hoping for when it launched a bombing campaign that day, the Financial Times reports.

Unbeknownst to Nasrallah, Israeli intelligence was well aware of the movements of Hezbollah’s leadership following years of hacking and surveillance work on the Lebanese terror group — which is one of the largest and best-armed militias in the world.

The exact context of this photo is not yet available: False. A reverse image search turns up the news article it came from:

The IDF's latest operation in the northern Gaza Strip continues to expand along with the evacuation of the population from large areas. The forces carry out raids on the compounds of the terrorist organization in Jabaliya, encounters with terrorists and continue cleaning the area. As you may recall, on Friday our military commentator Noam Amir said that the IDF should continue its special operation in the north of the Gaza Strip, move the Gazans from Jabaliya and start slowly building the territory of the north of the Gaza Strip completely free of Gazans. The goal after that is to settle the Gaza Envelope - to return the residents of the Strip back to their homes.

[emphasis mine]

Notably, this was the only news article that showed up in the search for the first two days. There are a few others now, like this from the American Chinese News Network:

Translated:

Although Israeli forces recently eliminated Hamas leader Sinwar, in northern Gaza Hamas has repeatedly rallied in the Jabaniya district, indicating the presence of a vast network of underground tunnels. The Israeli military carried out a large-scale clearing of the area and required all civilians to evacuate, preparing to conduct a thorough attack on the area to ensure regional security. The rout of Hamas marked the group's overall collapse in strategic locations such as the Jabalia district. According to a post by X@Israelwaronhama, the Israeli army will completely destroy this Hamas hideout and end the security threat in the Jabaniya district. The Israel Defense Forces has made significant progress in a series of recent military operations. Hamas' top leader Sinwar was killed by the Israeli military, which immediately triggered a large-scale surrender of Hamas members. It is reported that Hamas's military structure has been severely hit, and some armed forces have voluntarily laid down their weapons in Gaza and surrendered to Israel. The Chinese Communist Party's official media, which has long supported Hamas, still mourned him and issued a statement to pay tribute to Hamas's "heroes" in an attempt to maintain its support for Hamas in international public opinion. However, as Hamas's leadership structure disintegrates, this support appears more isolated. In addition, an IDF spokesman disclosed important intelligence at a press conference, pointing out that Hezbollah has a large amount of gold and banknotes hidden beneath a hospital in Nasrallah's command bunker in Beirut. Israel says it did not destroy the site, but the exposure sparked widespread concern and could make it a target for future Israeli military operations. After Hamas' top leader Sinwar was killed by the Israeli army, Hamas formally surrendered to the Israeli army. And the CCP is still mourning Hamas.

However, multiple journalists have reported seeing or speaking to people who have seen captured civilians being detained by the IOF: True. Multiple journalists have reported that civilians are being detained while they're identified as civilians, rather than Hamas members, and then are released to go to Gaza City.

In at least one instance, outside the Indonesian Hospital, the occupation is believed to have dug a pit forced several captives inside: False. The "pit" described here and shown at the link above is that big dirt patch on the left. You can see a group of people standing around. There's no sign that they were forced inside.

Based on the adults standing in it, the "sides" appear to gently slope down a few feet to the "bottom." This just looks like uneven terrain.

Whether this was for detention purposes, or for something even more sinister, is not yet known: False. The stated purpose is explicitly to separate civilians from combatants, and there are numerous pictures out there from civilians driving to Gaza City, Hamas members who have surrendered, and pictures like the one above, where civilians are just safely standing around.

Nobody has reported any alternative "sinister purposes."

21 October 2024

Journalist Mahmoud Al-Awadia reposts on Telegram a photo recently shared to social media by an IOF soldier in Jabaliya this morning. It appears to show dozens or even hundreds of Gazans crowded together in the street, closely guarded by IOF soldiers. The exact context of this photo is not yet available. However, multiple journalists have reported seeing or speaking to people who have seen captured civilians being detained by the IOF. In at least one instance, outside the Indonesian Hospital, the occupation is believed to have dug a pit forced several captives inside. Whether this was for detention purposes, or for something even more sinister, is not yet known. What is known is the IOF’s pattern of behavior, and it gives us ample reason to be extremely concerned for the captives. Please keep your eyes on Jabaliya and north Gaza.

The leaks from the investigation so far do not touch on the claims that Hezbollah turned the port into a weapons warehouse and had actually seized the ammonium nitrate stockpiled there to create explosive devices (IEDs). In 2015, a Hezbollah warehouse storing 8.3 tons of ammonium nitrate was discovered in Cyprus, and six months later, three tons of ammonium nitrate were found in four London hideouts. “On top of the risk of accidental detonations that threaten residential neighborhoods, it was revealed that the charge used in the Burgas bus bombing in 2012 contained ammonium nitrate,” according to one report.

Nor is it mentioned by the investigators that the massive explosion may have included a smaller blast of Hezbollah weaponry that was stored near the ammonium nitrate stash, as al-Arabiya TV reported on Aug. 4. Viewers of the videos of the port explosions claimed they saw “fireworks going off.” It can be said with relative certainty that the many tiny flashes were from low-caliber ammunition exploding.

Hezbollah stores explosives, missiles, rockets and ammunition throughout Lebanon, especially among the civilian population, to make it difficult for Israel to destroy them. The Iranian-backed group has transformed Lebanese residents into “human shields” to protect its weapons.

Who is responsible for the terrible catastrophe in Beirut? The answer is written on the wall. Everyone in Lebanon assumes Hezbollah and its government puppets will steer the investigation in the direction they want and will ignore the fact known to every child in Lebanon: Hezbollah controls the port of Beirut. Hezbollah knows everything that goes on in the harbor, just as it controls the other border crossings in the country.
