The title is in reference to Esser Agarot's final remark on a recent blog post, Will Israel Continue to Fight America's Wars for them, wherein he said in response to the glee being expressed over Trump's announcement of a "takeover" of Gaza, "Isn't it time to put the pom-poms down?"
It reminded me of my 2013 blog post, Not-so-secret US military involvement in the Jewish State, when up to eight "secret" US military bases could be documented in Israel.
However, I only recently heard about another revealed in 2017, thanks to our intrepid researcher. Following are the contents of her report submitted to me on January 29, 2025. (All emphasis mine.)
In 2017 the US established the first permanent base (site 883) in Israel at the Israeli Mashabim Air Base west of Yerucham.US Army Opens Permanent Base in Southern Israel as Trump Slams Iran Deal
Years in the making, Site 883 expands on long-standing and active ballistic missile defense cooperationFor the first time in history, the United States on Monday established an official, permanent military base in Israel: an air defense base in the heart of the Negev desert. Dozens of US Air Force soldiers will call home the new base, located inside the Israeli Air Force’s Mashabim Air Base, west of the towns of Dimona and Yerucham.Quietly, the U.S. builds its first Army base inside Israel
[Me: Remember, this is the first "Official" base, the rest are supposed to be unacknowledged, "secret" bases]In a little-noticed but significant move by the Trump administration, the United States has begun construction on its first military base within Israel.The permanent facility flying the U.S. flag will be independently operated by American troops on the IDF Air Defense School grounds in southern Israel’s Negev Desert near Beersheba. Its mission was described as defending against rocket and missile attacks.But it’s also both a symbolic gesture of the deep political and defense solidarity that both countries’ leaders have stressed and a substantive one, since it places an unknown number of American military members on the ground where hostile fire has fallen. Both Trump and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have vowed that bilateral relations are now the closest in history.Groundbreaking for the isolated, new U.S. base was first reported earlier this fall by Defense News, but attracted little immediate attention.Speaking at the modest ceremonies, U.S. officers enigmatically called the facility Site 883 Life Support Area. “This life support area represents the first ever stationing of a U.S. Army unit on Israeli soil,” said Maj. Gen. John Gronski.He added: “The U.S. and Israel have long planned together, exercised together, trained together. And now, with the opening of this site, these crucial interactions will occur every day. We’ll have Israeli airmen, U.S. soldiers living and working side by side.”There is another US base just 20 miles from Gaza and five miles from Egypt. Started in 2008, it was just a radar station with 100 soldiers but 2 months before the Simcha Torah massacre, the US began expanding it into a base.2008“When a contingent of U.S. soldiers opens a radar facility on a mountaintop in the Negev desert next month, Israel will for the first time in its 60-year history have a permanent foreign military base on its soil. And despite the early warning that the American radar would provide if Iran launches a missile attack on Israel, some senior Israeli officials are nonetheless wary about its presence. Complained one top official, “It’s a like a pair of golden handcuffs on Israel.”"Israel has its own radar system trained on Iran, but its range is much shorter. Still, some see several drawbacks for Israel in the radar, and blame Defense Minister Ehud Barak for requesting its deployment in Israel without consulting anyone other than his chief of staff. Some in the upper echelons of the Israeli Defense Force fear that although the radar will enhance Israel’s protection against Iran, it may also open up Israel’s own military secrets to the Americans.""The radar will allow the U.S. to keep a close watch on anything moving in Israeli skies, “even a bee”, says one top Israeli official who asked not to be identified. The U.S. may be a close ally, but Israel nonetheless has aviation secrets it would rather not share. “Even a husband and wife have a few things they’d like to keep from each other,” explains this source. “Now we’re standing without our clothes on in front of America.”2012[Me: Note, it works for us or against us however the US decides.]“First, while the US shares all data regarding potential inbound strikes with its Israeli ally, the US does not share all collected data. This tethers any potential Israeli response to an American chain of command located in California, at the U.S. Missile Defense Agency. “We share a lot, but there’s a valve on the pipeline, and it’s a one-way valve,” a Western military official involved in the program told Time. Second, the hyper-accurate detection works both ways. AN/TPY-2 is just as capable of noticing an Israeli surprise first strike against Iran as it is the other way round. This prevents both sides from throwing up missiles willy-nilly; and that fact alone could be keeping us from World War III.” [Me: Or an attack on Iran without US approval, which is why the PM has made no move as of yet.]On a desert hilltop in the remote southwest of Israel stands a compelling argument against any notion that the Jewish state will launch an attack on Iran without the United States. The discreet complex atop Mt. Keren is a U.S. military installation, and the 100 U.S. service members who staff it are the only foreign troops stationed in Israel. Most are guards; a few are support. The technicians are recognizable by the protective suits they wear to shield them from the extraordinary amounts of radiation generated by the no less extraordinary apparatus the base is built around.Nov. 2023(Site 512)The site houses a AN/TPY-2 Surveillance Transportable Radar operated in 2021 by the United States Army's 1st Space Brigade. Originally operated by approximately 100 soldiers, that number has increased significantly since the site's initial construction, with a $35.8 million expansion in 2023 increasing the base's capacity to 1000. Other data indicates that the operating unit is now the 13th Missile Defense Battery, 52nd Air Defense Artillery Brigade, 10th Army Air and Missile Defense Command, United States Army Europe.Private security contractors Constellis and SOC on frontline to secure US facilities in IsraelSOC and former Blackwater are reinforcing their armed security teams in Israel. Constellis is working for a secret Pentagon base near Beersheva that aims to give Israel advance warning of missile attacks. SOC, meanwhile, is protecting US diplomatic missions.[Me: This calls to mind the introduction of private contracted security now in Gaza: Private Military Companies Find a Role in Gaza's Security Void.](Here is a google maps shot of the base.)Shocking Newsweek article from October 13, 2023
I'll say it again, their presence here serves them and their interests, not us and it's just one more proof that they were in on it.
They own and control us until HKB"H delivers us from their hands. We are once again enslaved by Rome. Hashem yerachem!!
When asked by reporters who would live in Gaza subsequent to its reconstruction, Trump replied, "world people."
Asked who he envisions living in Gaza, Trump said, “I envision the world people living there. The world’s people. I think you’ll make that into an international, unbelievable place,” positing that some Palestinians might live there one day.What do you think he meant by that? And what are its implications for us - for a Jewish State?
This is not why our children have sacrificed their lives and futures. Hashem yerachem!!
Trump brings the Gog UMagod war! What's bad about it?

ReplyDeleteFirst point regarding the US spying and transfer of critical information to our enemies in wartime. The spy ship USS Liberty was strafed by Israeli aircraft on June 6th, 1967 while off the coast of Egypt. The Liberty was actively engaged in passing tactical information to Egypt. When it was discovered, Lyndon B. Johnson told McNamara to recall the 6th fleet air support en route to defend the Liberty. He is recorded as saying, "I want that g-ddamned ship on the ocean floor." He wanted no evidence left to incriminate the amerikkans in espionage on behalf of an enemy.
Second point regarding Har Keren, another spy operation, Israeli fears are well founded. There is zero Israeli oversight of this operation. Nobody knows what the amerikkans do here. Nobody.
The big picture becomes clearer when it is acknowledged that amerikka is the military wing of the Crown Corporation, along with the City of London (Financial), and the vatican (spiritual)
They don't just want the real estate and vast natural resources off the coast of azza, they intend to establish their temple in Jerusalem.

Absolutely correct on every point.
DeleteI've heard this theory, and it made sense to me, until I read Ron Unz's incredible analysis a few years ago.
DeleteThe Liberty was meant to be false flag, planned and overseen by America, and executed by Israel, posing as Egypt (unmarked planes and all that), who was probably given an offer it couldn't refuse. The goal was to draw America into the conflict and basically take over the entire Middle East.
Israel, instead of being a mildly uppity client state, would have instead been rendered a complete vassal.
Instead, a miracle occurred (even atheist Unz uses the word to describe what happened), and Israel couldn't sink the ship, no matter how hard it tried, foiling the entire plan, giving Israel an incredible victory that vastly expanded its area by many times (until the Sinai was relinquished). Even though America had the upper hand, Israel felt confident enough to resist total subjugation.
This makes MUCH more sense to me than some simple-minded explanation that America was aiding and abetting Egypt. And it is extensively researched.
The explanation is far more congruent with America's extraordinary effort to quash all investigation or recognition of the incident.
Deletehttps://voxday.net/2021/10/19/that-would-explain-a-lot/
DeleteRon Unz delves deeply into a surprisingly compelling theory concerning a) why Israel attacked the USS Liberty, b) why US Secretary of Defense refused to permit the Sixth Fleet to defend it, and c) why the US government aggressively covered up the undeniable fact of Israeli responsibility for the attack.

DeleteI have also read of the false flag theories regarding the Liberty spy ship, but they don't really make sense because the IAF did not use unmarked aircraft or naval vessels. The Israeli aircraft and torpedo boats were clearly identified by the surviving crew members of the Liberty and reported as such to the 6th fleet command.
I have read accounts of disciplinary measures taken against four IAF pilots that refused to fire on the Liberty and returned to base after they informed command that it was an amerikkan vessel.
That the subsequent investigation ignored a lot of testimony and evidence, including Johnson's order to abandon the ship and it's crew, is not in question. The investigative whitewash was simply a cover for amerikkan duplicity in this sordid and treacherous incident.

I heard two pieces of info from different sources, I don't know for sure so take it with limited liability:
ReplyDelete1. The CIA was involved in Oct 7
2. There were people at the Nova party wearing distinct clothing, directing the terrorists.
More than anything, the whole Trump phenomenon is a test of emuna. Most of us are just regular people, not affecting world events. Although we do in the sense of where we truly place our emuna. The more we trust in Hashem alone, the more Hashem takes care of us. And tragically the opposite. If you put your trust in anything outside of Hashem, Hashem leaves you to deal with it alone. No-one is perfect, we are all here to learn and refine our emuna. The question is what is our focus, what are we striving towards. Are we even aware that we are being tested?
Hitoreri
Good points.

ReplyDeleteI also heard of foreign involvement in the Simchat Torah massacre, whether al cia duh, and/or other agencies, possibly us special forces.
The attack commenced at about 2:30am, not 6:30am as reported. The border intelligence units were taken out before the fence was breached four hours later. So logic begs the question, if the forward surveillance posts were taken out before the mass incursion, then there had to be elite forces operating from within prior to the invasion itself. It would be hard to envision Israeli special forces involvement in the ice cold murder of young girls in their pajamas.
That pretty much leaves the amerikkan special forces as the prime suspect regarding foreign involvement, as they have free access to wander around Israel and do whatever it is they do.
As commentator Hitoreri wrote regarding the Nova festival. The security team hired for the event was reported as majority Arab. That's another detail that needs to be investigated.

G-d said: ''I'll be kind to you, and you have to be quiet (or silent)''. It means we do not have to be for or against anything, just be quiet, ''I'll do all the Job''! This is our test that many of us do not get it. Choose God, make tshuva, and the things will go the right way בע''ה אמן
ReplyDeleteWow, fascinating information. Where else would I find such detailed information and just proves to me all that we think and suspect is being proven. We have had the most corrupt leadership since the 'State;s' establishment and everything is worse, i.e., on steroids at this time. All the past years to build up this new version of the Romanized Israel, r'l.
ReplyDeleteOnly and really only Hashem can set things straight, because on the natural level, it seems almost impossible. May Hashem speed up our
Geulah b'rachamim k'heref ayin, like we can't even imagine such a
possibility. It will be so fast, we won't even know how our Geulah came about, and, hopefully, with great Rachamim!
