Larry Johnson – SONAR Feb 17, 2024
There is a lot going on in the world that is generating fear in the West because they have lost control of the narrative and the battlefield. Ukraine’s retreat from Avdeevka has exposed the lie that the Russian military is a spent force comprised of coerced, untrained, poorly supplied conscripts. This has left NATO scrambling to try to find a way to keep Ukraine in the fight, but Ukraine’s Army is being ground into dust and its morale is flagging.
But that is not where the real danger lies. Israel is signaling that it will invade southern Lebanon and fight Hezbollah. This is insane. Israel reminds me of the evil Queen in Snow White — they have convinced themselves that they are the best army in the Middle East. They gaze at their own reflection and fail to see how the world has changed. They are no longer the juggernaut that the imagine themselves to be.
Here is General Halevi doing his version of Mirror, Mirror on the Wall.
But this is not just some idle fantasy confined to Halevi. He has the backing of an overwhelming majority of Israeli citizens.
A poll published by right-wing Israeli newspaper Maariv has showed that 71% of Israelis believe that Israel should launch a large-scale military operation against Lebanon.
Israel has been carrying out heavy air strikes on villages in southern Lebanon during the past week, but it has not weakened Hezbollah. To the contrary. Hezbollah is stepping up its own missile attacks on Israeli settlements. Saraya al-Qassam and company is hitting “Ashkelon” with massive barrages of projectiles, setting off the missile sirens and sending the Jewish settlers running for shelter!
Hezbollah also reportedly targeted, at 01:00 in the afternoon on Saturday, February 17, 2024, the Branit Barracks with a “Falaq 1” missile, scoring a direct hit. The average Israeli citizen does not understand that Hezbollah has a significant escalatory capability in terms of being able to launch big missiles into Israeli cities that previously have not been targeted. Hezbollah also has a trained army. It is not a group of rag tag terrorists. And Hezbollah has well-fortified defensive lines capable of stopping an Israeli attack.
Making matters more interesting and dangerous, Iran has unveiled two new air defense system — the martyr Arman mid-range/short-range defense system and the Azarakhsh short-range air defense system. The Arman has a maximum detection range of 180 km with the following capabilties:
— Target tracking range of up to 160 km
— Maximum engagement range of 120 km
— Maximum engagement altitude of 27 km
— Reaction time of less than 20 seconds
The Azarakhsh has a much shorter range:
– Operational range of 50 km with radar detection and 25 km with optical tracking
– The ability to carry 4 portable missiles
– The ability to destroy aerial targets, including helicopters and manned/unmanned aircrafts
– The ability to operate in different weather conditions
If Iran decides to provide these systems to Hezbollah then Israel will face a new threat.
The bottomline is this — both Israel and Hezbollah appear to be stepping on the gas and moving towards a full scale war.
I will close with a video interview I did on RT Friday night regarding the situation in Ukraine with Adesewa Josh.

Guaranteed. In fact, the preamble has started. This will be then end of Israel. Much quicker than I thought.
“Will Israel Invade Southern Lebanon?” Of course. Is about to create Greater ISrahell from Egypt to Iran and Turkey to Yemen.
The chosenites think they’re exceptional looks like they’ll soon find out, now what about the rest of the Anal Empire will they help ? Obviously somebody will have to be bombed, the Houthis wouldn’t roll over so ? Now who hasn’t got an air defence system looks like Grenada needs some democracy and freedom.
A Yahoo News UK article says ‘Labour calls for ‘immediate humanitarian ceasefire’ in Gaza’. Actually it’s Keir Starmer calling to save his career after badly misjudging the mood of the British people over this Israeli genocide. But yeah, go for it, as if we’re all mooks anyway.
More CIA-KGB disinfo/nonsense from a ‘former’ CIA agent. What none of these charlatans tell you is that Oct 7 was an IDF-Mossad-Hamas black op/false flag–thus the current progress of the ‘conflict’ must be staged & planned out as well. Of course, these CIA-KGB shills on these ‘alternative news’ sites must present it otherwise to convince the morons that Israel is in a real ‘struggle’ here. They (Ritter/Johnson/Macgregor) also don’t want you to know that the Ukraine-Russia war is also staged by the Jew-Commie syndicate that covertly governs both ‘sides’ (NATO-Ukraine/Russia). But thanks to me, now you know what’s really going on.
THIS MADE ME LAUGH
Police investigating after Palestinian sticker attached to Amy Winehouse statue
The Metropolitan Police are investigating after a tiny Palestinian flag sticker was stuck over a star of David necklace on an Amy Winehouse statue.
The incident happened in the north yard of Camden Market on Monday and it has since been removed.The Met Police said they were aware of the image and that they know this would cause offence to jews living in the area So while they do not come out for burglaries of muggings they will investigate a small sticker on a stature the absurdity made me laugh They added: “We are making enquiries with Camden Market to establish the circumstances and what evidence, such as CCTV footage, may be available.” The monument of the Jewish singer has been displayed in Camden Market since 2014 near to where she lived in the last years of her life. Camden Market said the sticker had been removed immediately before the incident was reported to the police.They added that: “Camden Market remains first and foremost a place of diversity – a global destination that welcomes everyone. Any form of discrimination on our estate will not be tolerated.” Mass genocide in the middle east does not concern us, stickers on statues do
CALL TO STOP ISRAELI TERRORISM IN GAZA
UK Parliament will vote tomorrow on whether it supports a ceasefire in Gaza. Even if you’ve already written to your MP, please do it again tonight. We need MP inboxes to be swamped over the next 24hours with demands from constituents to vote for an immediate ceasefire. Please email your MP, and – if you can – also join us lobbying MPs inside parliament tomorrow.Please send a message to your MP demanding that they vote for the SNP motion being debated tomorrow. This is the only motion which is unambiguous in clearly calling for an immediate ceasefire. Let your MP know that you will accept no excuses for failing to support this motion. (See here PSC’s statement on why Labour’s amendment would dilute the call for a ceasefire)The situation in Gaza is dire. Over 29,000 Palestinians have lost their lives, and thousands more are suffering from starvation and facing the threat of famine. Israel is now on trial at the International Court of Justice for the crime of genocide, and the UK must act decisively to put an end to these war crimes. This means calling for a ceasefire, ensuring humanitarian aid can get to those in need, and to stop selling weapons to Israel.
Crowley, your comments are generalized…can you address Mr. Johnson’s answers on a point-by-point basis? His analysis seems very rational and sensible.
As for me, I hope to God that Israel really is in a real struggle here and will soon have its ass kicked good and proper.
The Israelis want Lebanese water. Israel will try to steal it as they have stolen everything else including the Palestinian land they now sit on claiming their heritage. They are Europeon Jews and have no association with the Hebraic Jews in the time period.
Ignorant Americans that agree with the Israeli claim that it was their homeland first should give their property back to the Indian Tribes who were there first.
The US government handing over bombs and other killing tools to Israel is way outside the boundaries of its constitution.
@ dwd
Crowley does not have to flesh his reasons our in a point by point format to this CIA shill, like I have done in numerous comments, with facts and reasons, which people do not bother to read or reason with. What Crowley said is called “free speech” which includes his impressions, intuitions, and common sense. With the pattern of all mass deceptions we have been subjected to over the past 100 years, and with Israel being such a specialist is orchestrating psyops, likely what is going on is part of some long-planned operation. This “war” in Gaza, at least in my opinion, is as controlled as the war in the Ukraine. We have no basis that they are any less staged as the Covid plandemic. Israel is simply expanding its borders with the total consent of the world powers, despite their ineffectual protests. It is all part of the Zionist Greater Israel Project (the “Yinon Plan”). You give them an inch they take a mile. They are little different from the Nazi filled with the Arian myth of superiority, who instead of doing something noble such as liberating the people from the communist yoke in the USSR, instead were so exclusive that they went about exterminating all whom they deemed as outsiders or impure.
“Will Israel Invade Southern Lebanon?” … Sure sure, go for it, Israhell. Let’s see how that turns out… Israhell can’t be incinerated soon enough.
Fred B: What part of this is fake? Are you saying that Israel doesn’t actually exist? Are you saying it exists but in fact is doing so at the invitation of the Palestinian people? Are you saying it exists but not at the invitation of the Palestinian people but the decades-long abuses of Palestinian people are lies and theater (the Jews and the Palestinian people are both in on the charade)? Are you saying the abuses were real until the beginning of the current “war” but are no longer real? Have any of the reports of war between Israel and Arabs ever been real? Why would the Israelis portray themselves as absolute animals and lower-than algae pond scum? Why destroy their “victim” image on the world stage? Do you know anyone who lives in Israel or Palestine? Do you know anyone who knows anyone who lives there? Where have the billions that have been handed over to the military/industrial complex to fight wars in the ME gone? No bombs were ever dropped, eh? If they were dropped, where were they dropped? I personally have an Iraqi friend who tells me that the war there was/is very real and has destroyed the country. I can put you in touch with him if you like.
