Easter Sunday: Full of I$raHell Massacres in Lebanon | Steve Sweeney

It has been a very bloody Easter Sunday here in Beirut, with a number of massacres reported across the country. IDF strikes on civilians, wiping out whole families, aiming for Christians. Next Sunday is Orthodox Easter; we can expect the same.

Since the early hours of Sunday morning, fighter jets have been roaring over the Lebanese capital. Several strikes have hit the southern suburbs—an area known as Dahieh—which has borne the brunt of Israeli attacks. Thick plumes of smoke could be seen rising from buildings struck in the air raids.

I$raHell wiped out the village of Taybeh, in South Lebanon—a village that stood for over 7,000 years. Not a battlefield. Not a military base. Homes, people—young and old—erased today.

After facing no consequences for genocide and land grabs in Gaza, I$raHell is now seizing more land in southern Lebanon in pursuit of 'Greater I$raHell': another village in Maaraka was blown up today, people were murdered, and survivors driven out. 

Later in the afternoon, a deadly strike hit Jnah, a densely populated residential area where buildings are tightly packed together. The scenes unfolding there have been catastrophic. Emergency services, along with volunteers, are still working at the site, transporting the dead and wounded to the nearby Rafik Hariri University Hospital using makeshift stretchers.

Steve Sweeney, Beirut, Lebanon, April 5, 2026.

  

I spoke with someone at the scene who said the area that was struck is home primarily to migrant workers—from Africa, India, and other countries. They described the devastation as unlike anything they had ever witnessed. This civilian building appears to have suffered significant casualties, with some estimates putting the death toll higher than the Lebanese Health Ministry’s preliminary report of four dead and many more wounded.

 

» Trump is a psychopath, and you can only imagine what they have on him—what kind of leverage or dirt they hold. But Iran is not going to back down. When those 10 days are over, if he begins to annihilate Iran’s key infrastructure, then everything in the Persian Gulf region will be annihilated. That will be the end of Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and the United Arab Emirates. It will be over. Everything tied to the US presence in West Asia will collapse overnight. Of course, the Iraqis and the Yemenis will act. So if the US goes for all-out war, the Iranians will respond with all-out war, along with the Axis of Resistance. And who will be the biggest losers? Zionism. Trump. Netanyahu. Because the world will see who destroyed it. The world will see everything for what it is. «

Earlier that same morning, there was a mass exodus as people fled for their lives after Israeli forces warned they would target the town of Kfar Hatta in the Sidon District, north of the Zahrani River. This area had become a refuge for those who had already fled regions south of the Litani River following evacuation orders. As people tried desperately to escape, roads became gridlocked. At least seven people were reportedly killed in that strike—entire families, in some cases, wiped out. One of the victims is believed to have been an officer in the Lebanese army.

I$raHell is now looking for yet another genocide... Shimon Riklin during a Channel 14 panel with National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, openly calls for the extermination of the Iranian people: "It's time for Israel to use a nuclear bomb against Iran. Or why not use a neutron bomb? It's better than nuclear bombs because it doesn't destroy buildings, but it kills people!" March 29, 2026. 

Southern Lebanon has come under heavy bombardment, and another strike was reported near Tyre District earlier in the day. Large plumes of smoke could be seen rising even from offshore.

All of this comes after Hezbollah claimed, in the early hours of Sunday morning, that it carried out a successful strike on an Israeli vessel approximately 68 nautical miles offshore. According to Hezbollah, the ship was preparing to launch attacks against Lebanon.

Using sea-launched cruise missiles, Hezbollah struck I$raHell's largest
 warship on April 5, 2026, as it was preparing more attacks on Lebanon.

 

Meanwhile, fighting continues. Israeli forces have struggled to maintain ground positions, while footage has emerged showing Hezbollah deploying FPV drones to destroy Israeli Merkava tanks—each valued between $3 million and $5 million. Reports from within Israel suggest growing unease, with some soldiers’ families voicing concerns over poor conditions and a lack of resources. Israeli military casualties on the battlefield are also increasing.

in Tokyo: "Down with America! Down with Israel!"

 

An open letter has reportedly been sent to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz. At the same time, there appears to be a shift in Israel’s strategic position. Just last week, Defense Minister Katz stated that Israel planned to occupy territory up to the Litani River. However, Israeli media now report that this objective may have been scaled back to establishing a security zone extending six to eight kilometers into Lebanese territory.

On April 5, 2026, IRGC spokesman Ebrahim Zolfaghari addressed US citizens directly in English:

"The United States President, due to entanglement in the Epstein case, is compelled to pursue in

line with the demands of the Mossad and the terrorist prime minister of the Zionist regime."

As fighter jets continue to roar overhead and bombardment persists, this remains a violent and tragic Easter Sunday in Lebanon—a war that shows no clear sign of ending.

'With the Help of God Almighty,' Yemen Intensifies 'Battle of the Sacred Jihad'

Statement of the Yemeni Armed Forces Regarding the Strikes on a Number of Sensitive and Military Targets
in Southern Occupied Palestine With a Salvo of Cruise Missiles and Drones – March 28, 2026

In the name of God, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

The Almighty said: "And Allah will surely support those who support Him. Indeed, Allah is Powerful and Exalted in Might." God Almighty has spoken the truth.

» Our second military operation in the Battle of the Sacred Jihad 
has successfully achieved its objectives by the grace of God. «  

In continuation of supporting and backing the resistance fronts in Palestine, the land of sacrifice and redemption; Iraq, the land of glory and opposition; Lebanon, the land of dignity and steadfastness; and Iran, the land of pride, honor, and defiance, and within the framework of confronting the Zionist plan in the region, and in carrying out of what was declared in the statement of the Yemeni Armed Forces dated March 27 of this year:

Ballistic missiles from Iran, cruise missiles and suicide
drones from Yemen target I$raHell. — March 29, 2026.

Our armed forces, with the help of God Almighty and reliance upon Him, realized the second military operation in the Battle of the Sacred Jihad, using a salvo of cruise missiles and drones that targeted a number of vital and military objectives of the Zionist enemy in southern occupied Palestine. This operation coincided with the military operations being delivered by our mujahideen brothers in Iran and Hezbollah in Lebanon, and it successfully achieved its objectives by the grace of God.

Ongoing escalation—and why Yemen's entry
in the war could be a game-changer. 

The Yemeni Armed Forces affirm that, in conducting their religious, moral, and humanitarian duties toward the free people of the global Muslim community (al-ummah الأمة) on the fronts of jihad and resistance, and in response to the enemy’s crimes against the sons of the Ummah, its peoples, and its countries, they will continue—by God’s help and reliance upon Him—to implement their military operations in the coming days until the criminal enemy ceases its attacks and aggression.

God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs; the best protector and the best supporter.

Long live Yemen—free, proud, and independent.
Victory to Yemen and to all the free people of the Ummah.

Sana’a, 9 Shawwal 1447 AH

No Energy, No Food: Global System Breakdown Begins | Stanislav Krapivnik

What is developing is not an "energy crisis" in the conventional sense. It is a loss of physical supply on a scale that the system is not built to absorb. A large share of global oil and LNG capacity is now either offline or severely impaired, and that supply cannot be replaced quickly because the infrastructure behind it is slow, complex, and highly specialized. We are not dealing with something that can be fixed by price signals or short-term policy adjustments. If the energy is not there, it is not there.

 

» And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, 

and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine. « 

Book of Revelation 6:6.

Infrastructure Cannot Be Rebuilt Quickly

Energy systems run on heavy, custom-built equipment—pressure vessels, pipelines, processing units—that take months to manufacture and even longer to install. If those systems are damaged, they cannot be repaired overnight. In many cases they need to be scrapped and rebuild. If upstream production is affected—wells, wellheads, reservoirs—the timeline stretches further. Redrilling alone can take months per site, and that assumes stable conditions, available crews, and functioning logistics. None of that is guaranteed in a disrupted environment. Even under ideal circumstances, restoring lost capacity is measured in years. 

» You can tighten your own belt, but when you see your children wailing and crying from hunger and there’s nothing you can do, that’s different. People pick up pitchforks, light torches, go to the city halls, and start burning things. We are going to see a lot of that. « 

The System Is Trapped in a Feedback Loop

The bottleneck does not stop at the damaged infrastructure. The global ability to produce replacement equipment is limited and concentrated in a handful of countries, all of which have their own demand. Manufacturing itself depends on energy, especially natural gas. That creates a closed loop: you need energy to rebuild energy systems, but the energy is what you are short of. So the recovery process is constrained by the same shortage that caused the problem.

Europe Is Structurally Exposed

Europe is in the most exposed position because it depends on imported energy while maintaining a large industrial base that cannot function without it. When supply falls short, the system does not adjust smoothly. It is forced into rationing. Governments prioritize households and critical services, and industry is cut first. That leads to forced shutdowns—chemicals, steel, fertilizer, glass—sectors that do not operate intermittently. When they stop, they stop completely. Some will not restart, because the economics no longer work or the supply chains around them have already broken down. This is how industrial capacity is lost, not gradually but abruptly.

 

» The first major trend is deindustrialization, depopulation of cities, and return to farms. The second is remilitarization, and the third mercantilism. In the future there will be regional trade blocs that are controlled by a local hegemon. We are witnessing the shattering of the old global order, and the emergence of a much more splintered multipolar system. « — Jiang Xueqin, March 10, 2026.

Fertilizer Is the Critical Link

Fertilizer sits at the center of the next phase. It is produced from natural gas, and without sufficient gas, production drops. When fertilizer becomes scarce or too expensive, farmers reduce usage. That directly lowers yields. Modern agriculture is not resilient to this; it is built on chemical inputs. At the same time, fuel costs affect every stage of farming—planting, harvesting, transport. So both key inputs are constrained simultaneously. The result is straightforward: less food is produced.

Food Systems Tighten, Then Strain

Food systems do not break instantly, but they tighten. Prices rise first. Then availability becomes uneven. Some goods become scarce, others disappear temporarily. Europe can buffer this for a time through imports, but it is still drawing from a global pool that is under the same pressure. If multiple harvest cycles are affected, the shortages become more visible and harder to manage.

US VP tries his hand at market manipulation. — March 26, 2026.

» The Pentagon is developing bold military options that could deliver a so-called "final blow" to Iran—ranging from seizing strategic islands in the Strait of Hormuz to launching ground operations against nuclear facilities. With oil above $100 a barrel, thousands of additional US troops deploying to the region, and diplomatic talks hanging by a thread, the most dangerous escalation scenarios are now firmly on the table. « — David Oualaalou, March 27, 2026.

Economic Contraction Is Inevitable

As energy and food costs rise, the economy contracts. Industry shuts down, jobs are lost, and consumption falls because people can no longer afford what they used to. This is demand destruction in its simplest form. It is not a choice—it is forced by cost. That contraction feeds on itself: lower output, lower income, lower demand. Under sustained pressure, this moves beyond a standard recession into a deeper, longer-lasting downturn.

Social Stability Comes Under Pressure

The social effects follow directly. Energy and food are not optional. When access becomes strained, people react. Lower-income groups are hit first, but the pressure spreads. We begin to see unrest, political instability, and governments imposing stricter controls—rationing, restrictions, prioritization of supply. Those measures can manage the shortage, but they do not remove it.

This Is a Multi-Year Problem

The timeline is the critical constraint. Even if conditions stabilize, rebuilding lost energy capacity takes years. That means the sequence does not resolve quickly. Energy shortages persist, industrial capacity remains impaired, agricultural output declines, and economic pressure builds over multiple cycles.

The Sequence Is Direct

The progression is linear and difficult to avoid once the supply gap is large enough: insufficient energy leads to rationing; rationing leads to industrial shutdown; industrial shutdown removes fertilizer production; reduced fertilizer lowers food output; lower food output raises prices and creates shortages; rising costs force economic contraction; and sustained pressure produces social instability. This is not a theoretical chain of events. It is the direct consequence of a system losing access to the inputs it requires to function.

"No Longer an Eye for an Eye, but an Eye for a Head, Hand, and Foot" | IRGC

"If Trump hits Iran’s infrastructure, it will no longer be an eye for an eye, but an eye for a head, hand, and foot. America will be paralyzed." Mohsen Rezaee, a former commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and top military adviser to  Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei, warned that any Trump-led strikes on Iranian infrastructure would trigger asymmetric retaliation, escalating beyond a proportional response. His remarks, aired on Iranian television today, followed the reported US postponement of attacks on Iranian power facilities.

 »  America will be paralyzed. «

 

Rezaee announced on Saturday that the war will continue until the US completely withdraws from the Persian Gulf and West Asia. He further declared that the Strait of Hormuz remains closed to all vessels affiliated with the US, I$raHell, NATO, and G7 nations. Iran's blockade targets only those hostile countries, while vessels from China, Russia, Pakistan, India, Spain, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Japan, North Korea, South Africa, Thailand, Oman, Mexico, Brazil, Colombia, Kenya, and dozens of other friendly nations can pass through the strait. However, the strait’s closure to enemy states following the onset of U$raHell's airstrikes against Iran on February 28 has triggered what the International Energy Agency describes as the "largest oil supply crisis on record."

 »  For the war to end, the US must withdraw from the Gulf region. «

 

» There will be no ceasefire this time. The fate Hitler met in the snows
of Russia will await the Americans when they face our determination. «

The projected scale of radioactive contamination from the destruction of Iran’s Bushehr nuclear power plant—as threatened by Trump—is severe. Bushehr, a Russian-built facility remains operational; however, the recent impact of a missile within 350 meters of the reactor compartment, indicates that the destruction is contemplated by U$raHell. A breach of the reactor’s containment would result in a nuclear catastrophe of exceptional scale and hazard.

»  Radioactive dispersion could extend to Oman and, across the Arabian Sea, reach southern India, with 

possible impacts on Sri Lanka and further spread toward Indonesia, Malaysia, and southern Thailand. « 

 
The reactor core contains approximately 72 tons of nuclear fuel, with more than 200 tons of spent fuel stored in adjacent pools. Destruction of the cooling systems would lead to core meltdown and a substantial release of radionuclides, including cesium-137, iodine-131, and strontium-90. While the containment structure is designed to localize part of such a release, prevailing winds would likely carry the radioactive plume southeast—directly toward the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

In desert conditions, where there is minimal precipitation to wash contaminants from the soil and no significant river systems to transport suspended particles, cesium-137 would accumulate in salt flats and coastal zones with long-term persistence. For the UAE, the consequences would extend beyond economic disruption to potentially existential impacts. Subsequently, radioactive dispersion could extend to Oman and, across the Arabian Sea, reach southern India, with possible impacts on Sri Lanka and further spread toward Indonesia, Malaysia, and southern Thailand.
