Neuberger Berman, the financial firm, announced last week that Steven Eisman, a star managing director made famous in the movie “The Big Short” on how he bet against the housing market, was placed on indefinite leave after a social media post celebrating the horrors in Gaza.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is considering plans that would force the removal of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians from northern Gaza under the auspices of employing a siege to force Hamas to release the remaining 101 hostages, according to a report.
IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi said in a video statement on Sunday that Israel’s recent attacks on Lebanon should send a clear message to Hezbollah and that it should expect more strikes as long as residents in northern Israel can’t return to their homes.
Hamas said last week that it plans to carry out a dramatic increase in “martyrdom operations” in the Occupied Territories amid the ongoing genocide in Gaza and Israel’s violent crackdown in the West Bank.
Hassan Nasrallah, the head of Hezbollah, said in a speech last week that Israel “crossed all rules, laws, and red lines” with its pager attack on Lebanon and said the attack should be considered a war crime or a “declaration of war.”
Israel’s deadly pager attack on Lebanon served no clear strategic objective other than terrorizing the country and embarrassing the military group, analysts said.
The moral rot in the IDF was on full display last week when soldiers were seen pushing three Palestinians off a roof in the occupied West Bank.
