    “Donald Trump says it is a ‘historic day’ for Lebanon, after the ten-day ceasefire with Israel took effect at midnight local time. He writes this on Truth Social.

    ‘Good things are happening!’

    But he also writes that it is important that Hezbollah adheres to the ceasefire.

    ‘It will be a big moment if they do. No more killing. We must finally have peace!’

    The statement comes as the Lebanese military reports attacks from Israel just hours after the ceasefire took effect.”

    Israel is accused of continuing to attack Lebanon despite the ceasefire that began at midnight local time, writes Sky News. It is the Lebanese military that claims to have recorded several Israeli attacks on areas in southern Lebanon.

    People are still urged to be cautious if they return to the villages. According to the Israeli military, forces still remain in the area and residents are advised to avoid the Litani River, writes SVT Nyheter.

    Israel has not commented on the reports.

    Completely Off-Topic but it is election time soon anyway..

    Imagine if one could talk to whales!

    “At first glance, humans have little in common with sperm whales. But the communication of these enormous animals is so complex that it is actually very similar to that of humans, new research from the whale project CETI published in Proceedings of the Royal Society B shows.

    The researchers have discovered that the whales use a complicated alphabet. The sperm whales’ clicks are not uniform. Like human vowels, the clicks are either long or short, with a pitch that is rising or falling. The pattern is found in Mandarin, Latin, and Slovenian, writes The Guardian.

    According to the researchers, the language is more complex than that of parrots and elephants. The founder of the whale project CETI, David Gruber, believes the findings inspire humility:

    – These whales may have passed down information from generation to generation to generation for over 20 million years.”

        At a bar in Yokohama: A number of American navy soldiers with unlimited confidence addressed the bar owner’s daughter something like this: What kind of “nese” are you, honey? Chinese or Japanese? The friendly reply came
        reptile-fast: What kind of “kee” are you? Yankee or monkey?

    A lot of artillery!
    Nice that you wrote a bit about whales. May I join in?
    Because of my job, I have had the privilege of seeing these animals in their natural element. Amazing creatures! I think of a lifeboat drill in good weather off the west coast of Mexico when we launched both lifeboats with crew. We tested engines and emergency transmitters, etc. Some curious gray whales came and studied us by lying on their side and looking curiously with their large eye. Children in Mexico who have experienced various kinds of trauma often go out with smaller boats and get so close that the children can pet these giants. The contact becomes like balm for the soul for these children and yes – it is exactly as if the whales understand this.🐋

      Have seen whales once from a long distance when I was on vacation in the Azores and we took a boat trip.
      It would be amazing to get close, so I am a bit jealous of you! 

      Nice with the children!
      It has been shown that elderly and dementia patients who get to interact with, among others, cats also react positively.

      Even though the whales kept their distance, the dolphins in the Azores were more curious and close. But it was difficult to get good pictures of them. When they jumped and you tried to take a picture, you were usually too late and they were already on their way down under the surface, or you guessed and were too quick so you only saw them halfway up! 
      A better camera would of course have solved that by taking fast burst shots (or today a high-resolution video camera)-

      Both whales and dolphins feel like sympathetic creatures in some way.

      Unfortunately no access to any high-resolution images but here are some dolphins from the Azores.

       

      Can warmly recommend the Azores for a somewhat different travel destination with beautiful nature.

      Sorry, got even more off-topic, from whales to the Azores! 😄

    Maybe wishful thinking now, but can such large artillery losses originate from captured areas?

    Alternatively, newly captured areas that allow them to reach further with drones.

    In any case, quite a bit of information, which can admittedly be difficult to assess, in recent days points to Ukraine having something in the works.

    Now you dismissed the film yesterday MXT so you killed my point.

    Which was that RU is working against it and that the fuel crisis was an important ingredient.

    And raff is burning in third countries all over the world now, not just MENA and RU. “technical errors” will be everyone’s excuse but there is a bit too much oil infrastructure that now has technical errors.

    If you have the energy to watch the whole thing, the RESEARCHER FROM KINGS COLLEGE in London and his RESEARCH GROUP have some important points but the first five minutes were a bit flattering for the audience, as if civil war is inevitable – a bit of an exaggeration.

    But the broader point is important and what is happening now in Ireland is exciting – they put in the arm, or at least tried.

    So please watch the film yesterday, I don’t dare repost it because then I’ll get MXT after me and it’s Friday – God’s peace applies and Mariestad is purchased.

    I am therefore after the broader picture.

      I am not saying that we will have a civil war in Sweden.

      But we could be heading towards unrest in several countries in Europe with general strikes, sabotage, and deadlocked politics, government crises, and all that.

      a fuel crisis is needed for that

    What you see is that the UA drone coverage is over the artillery range.

    I will get back with posts I know, but UA has the advantage.

    It’s going to be a bloodbath now that the ground is firm and moving forward – Russian black blood.

    The boat we were going to take on Victory Day has sunk, and the only clue is small wheel tracks, very small, and some empty beer cans by the boat – who do you think sank the boat 🧐

    Today it was to be decided how the Strait of Hormuz would be cleared of mines. Without the USA, Israel, and Iran. Was it Macron who was convening, I wonder? We will see what they come up with. Otherwise, they can call Zelenskyy and let Ukraine solve it too.

    2. jockesoft

      Thank you 🙏 and the same to you.

      Now it’s Friday drinking in progress here and I really need to finish off The Old Man’s weak beer, the way he downs a barrel every evening is impressive to say the least, I have needed a month. 🤪

  16. jockesoft

    Regarding the USA and Iran, there is an insane amount of equipment and resources on their way to the area from the USA; they have sent additional aircraft carriers, three in total now, tens of thousands of soldiers, and those who follow US military cargo flights can see how much material is heading to the region. It must be incredibly expensive to send so many resources here.

    It really doesn’t feel like the USA is done here in the Middle East, although I can definitely get a knot in my stomach about where this is actually going to lead. Iran has threatened to shut down freshwater production along with energy supply; they usually back up their threats. So scary if the USA/Israel actually starts up again, and the question is whether they are waiting until the ceasefire is over before they strike.

    I probably shouldn’t think about it too much; it’s Friday, so maybe I should just enjoy that instead. 😁

    All the best from my plastic bathtub in Abu Dhabi as usual.

      I think it’s to trick Castro in Cuba. Every now and then the armada sets course for the Caribbean. I believe Johan has already booked a spot on a minesweeper.

       

      Seriously, I don’t think so.

      As you wrote yesterday, uranium cannot be bombed away and Iran is unlikely to hand it over voluntarily. One might ask why: is a ground operation the goal for Iran?

       

      If that is the goal, what says that Iran would be so much more successful on the ground than they have been in the air and at sea, where they relied on Russian and Chinese equipment, which proved not to meet the standards. 

      1. jockesoft

        There is a consensus that Iran is probably not stronger on land than in the air or at sea.

        My concern is more about how many missiles and drones they manage to send to the GCC countries around, as it seems to be Iran’s modus operandi to handle attacks. Shoot at those who do not shoot back 🤷‍♂️

    Dn:

    [Apelsinführern] has decided to extend [Sleepy Joes]’s ban as of April 21, 2022, on Russia-linked ships entering American ports or waters for another year.

    “The policy and actions of the Russian Federation still constitute a national emergency due to a disruption or threat of disruption of the United States’ international relations,” reads the justification.

  18. 205

    The Ukrainian Armed Forces are set to launch a new way of fighting with drones, a kind of combined units of infantry and unmanned units both in the air and on the ground. On Telegram, it is written that the model has been successfully tested on the southern front.

  19. jockesoft

    Okay, maybe the US strategy against Iran to block the Strait of Hormuz worked:

    “Strait of Hormuz ‘completely open’ for rest of ceasefire: Iran FM
     

    Iran announced that the Strait of Hormuz is now “completely open” for the remainder of the ceasefire to commercial traffic, a major step towards ending a war with the US and Israel that has sent energy prices surging.” https://gulfnews.com/world/mena/lebanon-israel-10-day-ceasefire-begins-as-trump-says-iran-nuclear-deal-close-1.500509689

    And Trump thanks for that on Truthsocial, things might be moving fast now…

    Someone really needs to explain to him how CAPS LOCK works.

  20. N Eklund

    The oil price is at 87.05 USD/barrel for Brent Crude OTC-Spot and is falling as I write.

    The reason is that Iran says the Strait of Hormuz is open during the ceasefire in Lebanon.

    1. CB500four

      Hm, so now Iran has made it about Israel whether the strait is open or not…

      And Trump can also take credit for the US having negotiated the ceasefire and subsequently the opening of the strait.

      What will be the next move, and by whom?

      Israel wants to smash Hezbollah, and continue with Iran until the regime is replaced.

      The Iranian people want help to smash the mullahs.

      Europe and China want peace and quiet and oil and gas.

      Trump wants to declare it over, wants uranium, and oil, and money, and power over the oil flow in the Middle East, and at the same time move the American armada to Cuba, and gain honor and fame. 

      Iran’s mullah regime wants to control the strait, sell its oil, throw Israel into the Mediterranean, lock up the women, turn back time 2000 years, kill all infidels and get fifty-something virgins in paradise.
