As we seem in the UK to only be allowed to see or hear biased reporting and screening out of relevant background information, I thought this attached report may provide a different perspective.
The Middle East– News detail you probably will not see or hear from the British media.
Israel Unleashes Operation Shield and Arrow
Tuesday morning, the Israeli Air Force (IAF) struck the leadership of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) terrorist group in Gaza. This action was in retaliation for the firing of 104 rockets at Israel on May 2. The bombs dropped from the fighter jets in Operation Shield and Arrow killed Khalil Bahtini, TareqIzzeldeen, and Jehad Ghanam, three of the PIJ’s top commanders. Yesterday, the terrorists struck back firing over 350 rockets across the border from Gaza into Israel. Only three fell in populated areas and no casualties were reported. The IAF immediately struck back at the launch sites of these rockets. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) also destroyed the homes of ten PIJ operatives. In all, 27 Palestinians were killed during the operation and more than 76 were injured. There were no reports of any Israeli casualties.
A Little Israeli Subterfuge Goes a Long Way
According to the Islamic Jihad, Israel does not play fair. Their claim is that their leaders were told that Israel was prepared to enter into peace talks with them in Cairo. So, these leaders, who had been in hiding for years, came out of their little cubbyholes to say goodbye to their families before leaving for Egypt. Once they were exposed, the IDF killed them. If that is what happened, then kudos to the IDF. As the old saying goes, “All is fair in love and war, especially when you fire 104 rockets at our cities.” By the way, if you guys don’t mind, maybe I’ll use your brilliant strategy in one of my novels! Talks are under way now for another ceasefire, but they are unlikely to be fruitful. The PIJ is making two demands: 1. No more targeted assassinations. 2. Cancel the annual Jerusalem Day Flag March scheduled for May 18. Israel will not agree to these conditions. What the PIJ doesn’t understand is that when you are losing badly, it is not time to make demands.
More Comes Out on Jordan’s Smuggling MP
Two weeks ago, I let you know about a Jordanian member of parliament (MP), Emad Zidan AKA Hamid Eladwan, who was arrested for smuggling weapons and gold across the border to terrorist groups in the West Bank. At the time, another MP angrily chided Israel for including “gold” in their report, because it made the “heroic act” seem like common smuggling. It now turns out that it was, in fact, just common smuggling. Since February 2022, Emad has illegally brought across the border gold, guns, birds, electronic cigarettes, and people. And these actions were in no way altruistic. Emad was in it purely for the money. Other Jordanian officials have now been arrested in Jordan, and Emad is being sent back for prosecution.
Jordanian Jets Join Fight Against Drugs
Jordan’s air force went into action Monday, taking out a Syrian drug factory with ties to Iran-backed Hezbollah. A second target was the home of Marie al-Ramthan, Syrian drug kingpin. Al-Rathman and his family were killed, and the house was left in ruins. Last Thursday, Jordan’s foreign minister, Ayman Safadi, told CNN in an interview, “We are not taking the threat of drug smuggling lightly. If we do not see effective measures to curb that threat, we will do what it takes to counter that threat, including taking military action inside Syria.” It appears that was not an empty threat.
Synagogue Attacked in Tunis
Tuesday, after first killing a colleague, a member of the Tunisian National Guard travelled to an ancient synagogue. He rolled up on a quad bike and opened fire. Two Jewish cousins who were making a pilgrimage to the site were killed, along with two police officers and a security guard. Four more police officers were wounded in the attack. The shooter was shot dead on the scene. The synagogue, located on the island of Djerba, is Africa’s oldest.
Meeting of the Axis of Resistance
Leaders in the Axis of Resistance gathered on Tuesday. At the meeting were commanders from Iran’s Quds Force, Lebanon’s Hezbollah, Syria’s Fourth Division, and Gaza’s Islamic Jihad and Hamas. Also represented were numbers of Iran’s other proxy militias and Hezbollah operatives in Syria. Wordis they had tea and finger sandwiches before discussing fund-raising ideas for a new water feature at the Qasem Soleimani Memorial site.
Syria Allowed Back into the Arab League
In 2011, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad came down extremely hard on street protesters. This led to the onset of a decade-long civil war. Due to Assad’s actions, the Arab League suspended Syria’s membership in their organization. On Sunday, the member states voted to allow the war-torn nation back into the fold. The move, criticized by the U.S. and others, is intended to help normalize relationships between Syria and some League members, and provide stability for the broken country. Not surprisingly, Russia hails this “long-awaited step” of returning their minion state to the “Arab family.”

Born and still living in Israel Amir was brought up as a Jew and was at one time a major within the Israel military. He converted from Judaism to Christianity using the some 360 prophecies foretelling of the coming of Jesus Christ in the Torah, what we would recognise as the Old Testament.
His regular news updates from the Middle East and other countries around the world seem to be ahead of our Media and to date have proved to be very accurate.
