Don't forget Saudi and Qatar. They had a friendly little competition to see who could arm and fund the most jihadist mercenaries in the Syrian conflict.

A 'War with Lebanon' would mean the Zionist entity's Ignoble End courtesy of tens of thousands of SRBMs, which (as Syed Hasan Nasrallah put it Years Ago) would send it 'Back to the Stone Age.'

Netanyahu may be a Genocidal Whack-job ... but even he is astute & politically savvy enough to know that if 'Israel' ceases to exist as an entity... he too, likewise, will cease to be. Therefore, 'Israel' at present can only rely on him... for anyone else in leadership would launch the suicidal War mentioned earlier, which would destroy the Zionist entity entirely, once & for all.

Hezbollah is a weak hand. The best possible outcome for Israel will be if Hezbollah stands and fights when the IDF attacks north. This is the opportunity of a generation for Israel. Thanks to the war in Ukraine, something in the dynamics has changed and the US is no longer able to impose a frozen conflict on Israel. The conditions Hamas and Hezbollah have counted on, no longer exist.

With Hamas destroyed and Hezbollah castrated or destroyed, voices for peace and prosperity in the ME may finally find room to speak.

Why would they stand and fight. The genus of Solemani is dispersed fighting force, dug into tunnels, allied with other regional actors, using modern technology in cheap drones and missiles. The classic pattern is hit and run. So no gunfighter duel at noon between white hat and black at noon. Just people fighting foreign thieves and oppressors with whatever works.

And since we can't get our heads wrapped around this new reality there is very little chance of defeating it.

Would think one would understand by now given the events in Ukraine that monetary might does not translate to physical power. The level of corruption over here (US) is so deep it’s hard to know what gears are actually getting greased appropriately.

Expand full comment

The corruption in the U.S. is at the executive level, and this is is across the spectrum from City to County to State to federal levels. The elected leaders are corrupt, as well as some procurement generals who push for specific weapon systems and then retire straight to a board seat for the defense contractor they awarded the contract to.

There is relatively little operational corruption. As in, once the funds get appropriated to maintain the weapons, the weapons get maintained. There aren't silo managers pocketing funds for maintenance and checking the form saying the maintenance was done. There aren't B-2 crew chiefs selling spare parts on the black market. There aren't drydock workers claiming they did upgrades to a submarine that they didn't do.

Operational corruption is what hampered the initial Russian offensive in Ukraine. They had trucks that couldn't go offroad because they were sitting on 20 year old tires that were supposed to have been replaced multiple times, but the unit commanders and sub-ministers just pocketed the funds instead of buying new tires.

What genocide?

You mean killing?

Let’s discuss your genocide in Checneya, Ukraine… except neither one was a genocide.

Kalingrad in 1945 was, but understandable.

Why an explicitly genocidal government- HAMAS - with the full support of its people became the victim- this is only possible in a world where men take maternity leave.

The Zionist entity can wipe its neighbors from the map with nuclear weapons, and if it weren’t being so publicity conscious could have finished Gaza months ago, and should.

Since you probably don’t know anything about that part of the world; the Palestinians are the Alphabet City of the Middle East- the bottom of the barrel housing projects for the Arab world. Their crocodile tears fellow Muslims would exterminate them within weeks of any unlikely victory.

As for the blockade, not to worry, the Arabs are shipping goods to Israel by land routes.

Gaza bought any fate including actual genocide on themselves.

No one wants them, least of all the Arabs.

What doesn’t make sense is Russians attempting to curry favor with Western elements that will hate them forever, or currying favor with Arabs who can’t help them, and certainly want nothing to do with the Filistina.

They should have chosen and committed.

Instead they vacillate, ideal for my people The Americans,

Actually, much of what he says is true; although I think Israel brought a lot of this down on themselves with their own actions.

Consider, Egypt was in control of the Gaza Strip for years. Who was it who killed Anwar Sadat again? Consider Trans-Jordan; what area was it that gave them the name Trans-Jordan again?

The Arab states liked having perpetual martyrs, none of them are innocent. The Saudi's were ready to normalize relations with Israel when this Hamas attack put paid to that.

I said in a different article/thread that neither side was innocent. If it wasn't for the oil wealth no one would give a damn and they'd let each side have at it.

The only ones truly guilty are the politicians on both sides, as they play their power games and the little people pay for it with their deaths.

The Arab governments certainly have a long history of treachery when it comes to the Palestinian cause. But their people definitively support the Palestinian cause which somewhat puts the brakes on the damage such governments are capable of, thank goodness.

But when you say "both sides" I am assuming you mean the bulk of Arab countries and Israel, Palestinians not being one of those sides - because they are not. Their cause is legitimate and the actions they have taken to date, weak as they are as an essentially unarmed people fighting against an occupying force, are legitimate resistance.The Palestinians are innocent as they, being under occupation for 50 years, have every right to resist by whatever means they can gather against this beast whether they have Arab support or not.

Thank God for resistance forces such as Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Hezbollah, the Yemenis and all others who stand with Palestine.

"being under occupation for 50 years"

Over 70 years Victor.

Expand full comment

Victor, have you even seen the result of a terrorist act against civilians? I have. And do not give me that what Israel is doing is a terrorist act of genocide.

The facts are:

The Israelis have not been in Gaza since 2005

Palestinians had self-government of Gaza and elected Hamas as their Government (a terrorist organization) - 2006

Hamas has prevented any further elections.

The Palestinians have not rebelled against Hamas, even though Hamas with all of its money taken from aid and other Arab countries has not delivered on hospitals, health, schools and keep going.

Infrastructure is very poor in Gaza - and billions has gone in in aid.

Israel only blocked Gaza going in and coming out by sea, land and air because the Hamas/Palestinians committed terrorist attacks on Israel from the sea and when allowed into Israel.

Hamas started this war - October 07

The Arab nations started the 1948 war.

Israel, in all actions, advises the civilian population that they intend to bomb the buildings and to leave.

Hamas prevents them from leaving and shoots them if they continue to leave.

Hamas uses women and children and civilian infrastructure, hospitals, schools.

The suffering stops when Hamas hands over the hostages and surrenders.

UNRWA supports Hamas.

Palestinians danced and abused Israeli bodies on October 07 and afterwards.

And there has not been 50 years of occupation. Hamas made their own bed - or well the PLO / Arafat did.

Palestinians have no legal right to the area of Israel.

The area of Palestine as described by Greek scholars is Jordan & Syria and a small area of the Gaza Strip.

Palestinians are not indigenous to the area of Israel. Palestinians invaded.

The Jews are. They have been there a very long time - Kingdom of Israel & Judea even mentioned in Greek literature.

And so, you offer the statement - "Thank God for resistance forces such as Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Hezbollah, the Yemenis and all others who stand with Palestine". The covenant of Hamas - the destruction of Israel and the removal of the Israelis from the area - "From the river to the sea".

Well, they will come for you Victor. Jihadists will not even be interested that you support Palestine. You are an infidel. You will have to convert to Ilsam.

Islamic Jihad is planned as follows: - Hamas & others.

First - the Israelis & destruction of Israel

Second - then all other Jews worldwide

Third - all Gentiles & others - infidels - and that is you Victor and I.

you do not believe me. I have seen the results in Afghanistan how members of NGOs, Aid Groups, those that were not Islamic - killed by the Taliban or Isis. Men women and children.

Keep believing you are safe. You are not. Suggest you look at France, Sweeden, Germany, UK, US, Australia - I never thought that I would live, to hear anti-Semantic cries and calls in Australia.

Look at the two peoples - one is massively killing and abusing and destroying the other this very day, this very moment. So I ask - who is genociding whom? The Zionist creature stole that land against UN authority in 1948. They murdered and displaced millions in the process, removing them from their homes and land on which they had lived for thousands of years. And the removal continues even to this day - first as they captured the the Golan Heights, the West Bank, Gaza and subsequently continuing til this day establishing illegal settlements filled with "sub-human-hating" Jewish maniacs who destroy Palestinian homes, murder, rape and destroy fields and olive groves. Here is a people who have penned in the Palestinians for decades into an open air concentration camp where the inhabitants must rely on the Zionist creature for its food, energy, medical supplies, and water - a creature who rations everything that enters or leaves Palestinian territory, always threatening to remove that support if they don't behave properly. Here is a creature who raids Palestinian homes in the middle of the night, terrorising families, beating up their children, taking their men into custody without charge or representation. Here is a creature that takes aim at children playing on the beach and kills them, laughing as they enjoy their sport. Look at this creature. How can you not hate him? How can you not wish God would wipe his presence from the face of the earth? How can you not understand the pain of the Palestinians and the rise of Hamas, a group that has stood up for the Palestinians and given them some degree of pride and firm resistance against the evil covering their land?

(a) Killing members of the group; (30,000+ so far)

(b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group; (entire population traumatised by the destruction of Gaza)

(c) Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part; (purposeful withdrawal of food, energy, water and medical support from the entire population of Gaza, destruction of their homes, hospitals, schools, mosques, as well as forced displacement of the entire population.)

(d) Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;

(e) Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.

What utter nonsense. Next you will be claiming Biden was elected President.

Israel exists solely because the British Empire was crumbling all over the World and a "Gentlemen's Agreement" was set to create Israel on turf that the Brits could not hold. Perhaps Perfidious Albion knew what interesting times the Chosen chose.

And once Britain and France were spanked over the Suez Canal, the USA started a more serious Middle East Meddling operation, which included the shotgun marriage to Israel by sentimental U.S. Jews intoxicated by the meanderings of the Old Book, believing there was such a thing as "Sacred Dirt".

Cleverly enlisting American Bible Belters as another Jewish Army, and U.S. voting block, Israel brazenly stole more Palestinian land, killed more Palestinians (after all, they were not human), precipitating and encouraging pushback. Hence October 7th, a few days after Israel allowed the Settler Invasion of Al Aqsa Mosque.

“With shared forces, with deep faith in the justice of our cause and in the eternity of Israel, we will realize the prophecy of Isaiah 60:18.” - Nutty Yahoo

The citation refers to the violent, destructive establishment of Israel and Temple Mount where “nations kingdoms that do not serve Jerusalem will be destroyed and perish” (Isaiah 60:18).

“Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy all that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys.” - Nutty Yahoo

Far-right Zionists view Palestinians as Amaleks. Baruch Goldstein, the Jewish mass murderer, was inspired by these verses to kill Palestinians praying at a mosque in Hebron in 1994. More details can be found here and here.

“We will turn Gaza into a deserted island. To the citizens of Gaza, I say. You must leave now. We will target each and every corner of the strip.” - Nutty Yahoo

“We are imposing a complete siege on [Gaza]. No electricity, no food, no water, no fuel – everything is closed.”

[…]

“We are fighting human animals, and we act accordingly.” - Israeli defence minister Yoav Gallant

“Only an explosion that shakes the Middle East will restore this country’s dignity, strength and security! It’s time to kiss doomsday. Shooting powerful missiles without limit. Not flattening a neighbourhood. Crushing and flattening Gaza. … without mercy! without mercy!” - Likud Member of the Israeli Knesset Revital’ Tally’ Gotliv

"Hate on the enemy. Hate on the monsters. Every bucket of internal conflict is a horribly crazy and stupid waste of energy. Invest that energy in one thing: erasing all of Gaza from the face of the earth. That the brave monsters will fly to the southern fence and enter Egyptian territory. Or let them die. And his name is evil. Gaza needs to be wiped out. And fire and smoke on the heads of the the nazis in Judea and Samaria [West Bank]… Revengeful and vicious IDF is required here. Anything less than that is immoral.” - Likud MP, Galit Distel Atbaryan (see also here: https://twitter.com/GalitDistel/status/1719689095230730656?t=w9-8NB0gSv9gcpoq8eeNSw&s=19)

“There is one and only one solution, which is to completely destroy Gaza, before invading it. And when I talk about destruction, I mean destruction like it was Dresden and Hiroshima, without a nuclear weapon… Now they have very high number of deaths… but if you do to them like what was done in Dresden, like the British did, and if you burned everything, and if you threw bombs that penetrate defensive structures, to penetrate Al-Shifa hospital, and destroy the ground beneath it without any consequences [clip ends].” - Moshe Feiglin, Israeli politician and former Knesset member

“Navon posted incendiary remarks on Facebook saying it was not enough to ‘flatten Gaza’. ‘It won’t calm the storm of emotions, it won’t dull the intensity of the rage and pain that can’t find an outlet for them,’ Navon wrote. Instead, she said the culprits should be captured and tortured ‘one-by-one’ by pulling out their nails and skinning them alive. Further detailing the type of torture she said they should endure, Navon said that male genitals should be cut off, fried and fed to the captured. ‘Save their tongues for last, so we can enjoy his screams, his ears so he can hear his own screams, and his eyes so he can see us smiling,’ she said.” - Adviser to Benjamin Netanyahu’s wife, Tzipi Navon

Netanyahu’s digital aide, Hananya Naftali, posted an image of dead Palestinian children with the message:

“The world should thank us for destroying these little time bombs. In fact, we are preventing similar events from happening to other nations in the coming years.”

Ezra Yachin, 95-year-old Israeli reservist. Yachin was a member of the Lehin or Stern Gang terrorist group, which engaged in terrorist attacks, including against the British to establish Jewish homeland. Lehin was responsible for the horrific Deir Yassin massacre, where its members killed at least 107 Palestinian Arab villagers, including women and children. He has been supporting the Zionist army by urging them with the following words:

“Be triumphant and finish them off and don’t leave anyone behind. Erase the memory of them. Erase them, their families, mothers, and children. These animals can no longer live… Every Jew with weapon should go out and kill them. If you have an Arab neighbour, don’t wait. Go to his home and shoot him. Attack them, and don’t wait for them… We want to invade, not like before, we want to enter and destroy what’s in front of us and destroy houses, then destroy the one after it. With all out forces, complete destruction, enter and destroy. Let them drop bombs on them and erase them. All the prophesies sent by the Prophets are about to occur.”

IDF soldier’s mother:

“From the Jordan River to the Middle East, all of it is ours. It was promised to us. There’s no Palestinian nation. No one wants them. So why we? The only innocent people that are in Gaza now are the 229 hostages that were taken. Once they will go back to Israel, we will bomb Shifa Hospital, all the hospitals, all the tunnels, and kill them all… we are the centre of the world now.”

Israeli journalist, Zvi Yehezkeli:

“If the definition is to destroy Hamas, you have to destroy everyone connected to Hamas. The government, the commanders, military personnel, supporters, clans, and anyone who kicked out the Palestinian Authority in 2007 and established the Hamas government. Its hundreds of thousands.”

Former military officer of Unit 8200 turned researcher, Eliyahu Yossian (see here, here, and here):

“There are no innocents in Gaza, there are 2.5 million terrorists. After the first attack, we had to kill 50,000 Gazans.”

He repeated this statement in another interview, adding:

“You have to enter Gaza at the height of brutality, with the aim of revenge, zero morality, maximum corpses.”

You have used the terms Arabs are shipping goods to Isreal, when vassal states of the Middle East would be more appropriate in this situation but I do feel there is a disingenuous note in your comment if not outright support for the present situation in Gaza and the West Bank and the passing off of the vile role played by western installed puppets as being wholeheartedly supported by the Arab street(sic.).

The house of Saud play a treacherous role with Isreal as they have with the taking and controlling of Makkah up to this day so one could hardly suggest their actions represent the wishes of their population or Islam as a whole.

What are the wishes of Islam as a whole? Other than the destruction of Israel?

And destruction of____

And destroy ____

And____

Sure Islam has more to offer.

But only if the others are in utter, degrading thrall to Islam.

Paying head tax with foot on heads, yellow stars… the rest.

Only the occasional murder rape/raid when the boys get frisky… try and understand boys will be boys.

NOT that Islam can actually run anything for centuries….

Nor defend itself from outside powers since the Mongols and Turks laid it waste.

But all would have been well…

… except for oil.

No one would care except for oil.

No one will care when the oil is gone or replaced. We already have all the oil, LNG and the rest… what actually happened was we overreached in peace trying to make a deal with Iran on the side while the Saudis made peace with Israel. This would have left the bottom feeder slums called Palestine- the refuse of Islam - out. Also Iran has their little Houthi side counter against Saud, etc.

What Islam wants is BLOOD, and then slavery, then one can have the peace the Spartans gave the Helots. And we’ll all just have to put up with it because boys will be boys. NO WE DON’T.

The Arab governments are letting Israel slow walk Gaza into extinction because then the Jews did it, or the Americans did it, or the Circassians did it, or the Mameluks did it… Anyone but Muslims did it…

*The Jews are your Janissaries* for this gruesome housekeeping, which they are now happy to do, because the morons went too far, even for Iran HAMAS went too far.

The Jews are just your latest Janissaries for the Palestinians, as the Americans were the Janissaries against Iraq, and so on. This is what comes of not doing your own dirty work.

That we Mameluks and Janissaries have our own interests and ideas should not be such a shock.

No one want’s the Palestinians, don’t feel bad, many peoples have vanished from history.

Most in fact. No one wanted the Ruthenians either.

The Jews are your Janissaries, the Americans the Mameluks, like both we have our own ideas.

Maybe Islam needs some version of the Golem or Frankenstein tale…

Did I read that right? You just wrote about how Muslims are all bloodthirsty slavers, while referring to "we Mameluks and Janissaries" that are apparently respectively Americans and Jews (by which I assume you actually mean Israelis)?

So, Americans and either Jews or Israelis are male slaves who got penectomied by sickle blade without anaesthesia and physically and mentally tortured until they became obedient, trained warrior-slaves, and the latter are of the elite variety, having been castrated young and properly beaten into it since their capture and enslavement in childhood in order to fight for the Sultan?

What are you even talking about? Islam wants blood and slaves, and your people are its followers' castrated slaves? What? Are you a centenarian and former slave of the Ottomans, migrated to America, who missed when the last countries in the Arabian peninsula made slavery illegal?

I would say I can't really expect someone who knows nothing about Islam while ranting about it to know anything about Arab slavery, but on the other hand, such rants are usually emphasising the horrors of the Arab slave trade rather than referring to their own people as castrated male slaves who are the property of Arabs. Not seen that before, that's a brand new statement.

Janissaries were not castrated, nor were the Mameluks - how could they have established dynasties if they were castrated?

I hardly think that Islam is uniquely a bloodthirsty religion - the Jews or the Christians might actually come out ahead in such a contest!

Of course, the destruction of Israel is not actually a goal of Islam, although it might be for the people that were displaced and massacred by the state of Israel. In actual historical fact, both Jews and Christians lived well in Islamic governed states for hundreds of years. Not so the other way around.

I do not think any human religious group (sect? cult?) or any human ethnic group holds a monopoly on persecution - either as perpetrators or as victims - or on savagery, hatred, and butchery. Fortunately, wise, compassionate, and spiritually enlightened people arise from every religion and ethnicity as well. All of us humans may be capable of the most depraved and barbaric acts as well as the most generous and uplifting.

In the current situation in the land of Israel/Palestine, the power imbalance shows the Israelis to be the most barbaric, and much of the world is revolted by their delight in causing suffering to the people they despise. If the people who are making these genocidal and hateful statements, and supporting and encouraging the massacres and displacement of Palestinians, actually do represent the opinions and desires of the majority of Israeli Jews, then those who wish to see a complete dismantling of that state may have right on their side. The defeat and dismantling of Israel as a state in not the same thing as the killing or evicting of all the citizens of Israel, any more than the dismantling of Nazi Germany resulted in the massacre of all Germans.

Expand full comment

I don’t think so.

Hizbollah is well aware of the difference between nuclear weapons and a bunch of flying telephone poles, admittedly ones that explode on impact.

The Israelis are forced into an entirely artificial restraint by the Americans , far more than the Americans restrain themselves (and I’m an American veteran, it’s already absurd).

The entire plan of Israel’s enemies is totally contingent on Israel restraining itself unto its own extinction. Now that they got a good taste of extinction, it’s not as important to have good public relations and optics.

The other part is the highly overrated and misunderstood support from the Americans.

No matter what America is about to be consumed this year with internal combustion, er affairs and will not be in a position to demand suicide, if it ever was.

Israel was not founded by America, it was founded by Settlers and frankly Great Britain. Israel is the one time the Rothschilds are actually “guilty” of what they so often were accused of ….. see the Balfour Declaration. It is true the USA supported the UN vote in 1947.

It is also true that the arms for Israel in 1947-1948 hostilities came from England, or Czechoslovakia, and at the time all had the blessing of Stalin.

He regretted it.

In the 1950s Israel was an ally of France and England, France gave them nuclear reactors, later Mirage Fighters. See also 1956 war and Suez. At this time Israel ISN’T our friend, nor America hers… in fact we’re not allies at all until after the 1967 war.

Being America’s ally is costly;

In 1973 Kissinger would not let them strike back.

It means Israel has to give up land it paid in blood for; in the Sinai, in Lebanon, in Gaza, in the West Bank, at every turn land for peace becomes land for war, although the nation states of Egypt and Jordan made peace.

Neither Iran, nor the incapable of peace Lebanese of any variety, nor the incapable of anything but murdering the helpless Palestinians ever made peace.

Truly they would rather die, as they have never stopped saying.

Truly all now believe them.

But America has been holding Israel back since 1969 when the alliance began, in exchange for weapons and protection from the USSR. Most of the money goes to our own weapons manufacturers BTW, so it’s essentially a subsidy of our own arms industry.

Now Israel only needs from us that we not make Israel a pariah state in economics and trade, although like Russia she could quite survive these blows. But asking for mass suicide was too much, just as asking Russia to endure a NATO member on their border was too much.

As for the Russians toying with you here, oh Filistina , that’s all they are doing. They can’t help you if they want to, they don’t.

Russia aka Simplicus wants to cause America trouble, this is reasonable and understandable.

It doesn’t go anywhere.

Russia can’t and won’t go to war with Israel. Russia will probably remember that Israel dragged their feet on their tech being used against Russia, to some effect. In any case Russia is now in a position to win Ukraine and probably dominate Europe as America contracts. In no way does that translate into Filistina or River to Sea. That was always hopeless, no one ever attempted it… not really. They fundraised for it, they indulged it…

It isn’t real.

Not possible; look at what you have to work with?

This will end soon.

Cheers!

Every time I game it out I come to the conclusion that Israel is living on borrowed time and has almost no self awareness of it. If there isn't a long term peace deal in Israel by the time Ukraine collapses, then I'm pretty sure they're doomed. The Russian war industry will be able to flood the region with weapons, drones and air defense and in numbers that the US Navy won't be able to overmatch... There is also the fact that Israel is a tiny country with only about 11M people surrounded by 1.5B Muslims.

"There is also the fact that Israel is a tiny country with only about 11M people"

It's even worse than that.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Israel

Only about 7.2M are Jews. The remaining 2 million are a mixture of people who have no dog in this fight. Add to that 1/2 million have already left, mostly Jews with dual citizenship I'd imagine. Also, about 1.3 million are Haredi - not exactly military grade guys, in fact most of them have never served. That makes about six million (odd coincidence, no?). So out of that number, how many are actually trained and ready for combat, as opposed to just playing soldier on weekends? And when the great call-up begins (you'll know when they close the airports) where are they going to train, since every square inch of the land is within range?

The crusaders created forts in various locations, but were eventually ousted. The aircraft carrier state of Israel is no different. In fact it's ironic that it's referred to as such because aircraft carriers have been rendered obsolete by modern missiles. Israel is a western imperial imposition which in a multipolar world makes it obsolete.

Expand full comment

Aircraft carriers aren't obsolete for the same reason B-52s aren't: they can haul the delivery systems for cruise missiles and other munitions around the world.

Now, super expensive single point of failure aircraft carriers are quite possibly obsolete due sheerly to cost. But having a floating runway and aircraft/missile storage platform will always be valuable, even if they have to remain further and further offshore.

Those are definitely big dangers. Of course, the submarines and frigates firing them are in danger as well.

Still, if you had to sacrifice a frigate in exchange for taking out a super carrier, it's a win for everyone but the sailors on the frigate who get smoked.

When the US carriers start getting sunk I doubt the US will able to replace them, but they're heading towards oblivion as the costs and US ability to finance endless wars comes to its end. The US urgently needs to find better investments than these floating imperial dinos.

Modern warfare, and the proliferation of cheap advanced electronics, has largely taken away Israel's main advantages.

Their adversaries can use encrypted comms and build cheap, effective drones that are perfectly capable of taking out armored vehicles and tanks. Israeli air power is still substantial, but you can't win urban battles with fighter-bombers unless you plan on leveling everything.
