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. 

Entire residential areas destroyed by I$raHell airstrikes in Tyre on April 5, 2026.
 
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.

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.

"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.

"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.

Never stop your enemy from making mistakes.
 
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).
 
March 21, 2026: Retaliation for U$raHell's strike on Bushehr. Chaos erupts in Arad—home to
Dimona-linked nuclear personnel. Even Israeli sources admit that about 20 buildings were
destroyed, hundreds were killed and injured, and bodies are still buried under the rubble.

The world is witnessing an asymmetrical confrontation between two opposing sides, which has displayed the peak
of brutality as well as desperation on one side, and innocence along with heroic resistance on the other side. «

I say frankly to the American statesmen, who are now managing the genocide in Palestine: You will not be spared from this fire. The entire Palestine, from the sea to the river, belongs only to original Palestinians, including Christians, Jews and Muslims. «  
Hossein Amir-Abdollahian, 2023.  
 
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.

Sun Burst: Collapsing solar filament on August 31


A gigantic solar filament collapse has been caught on a NASA observatory camera. The stunning video covers nearly 3 hours compressed into half a minute. The event resulted in a coronal mass ejection and a small-scale geomagnetic storm on Earth.

The footage shot in extreme ultraviolet light shows the last hours of an arc of relatively cold plasma, which was kept stable by magnetic forces, but collapsed on August 31. The filament explodes, releasing a burst of radiation and coronal mass into space.

The ejection delivered a glancing blow to Earth’s magnetosphere, triggering a moderate level geomagnetic storm, the NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center reported. By Tuesday, however, radiation levels went below the minor event threshold.

A solar filament, also called a solar prominence if it is observed against space, consists of hot ionized hydrogen and helium looping hundreds of thousands of kilometers from the sun’s surface into the relatively hotter corona. It can persist for months before ceasing to exist. Astrophysicists so far have no comprehensive theory as to how such structures are formed.

3-day Solar-Geophysical Forecast issued Sep 03 22:00 UTC

Solar Activity Forecast: Solar activity is expected to be low through the period (04 - 06 September) with a chance for isolated M- class flares.
Geophysical Activity Forecast: Geomagnetic field activity is expected to be at unsettled to active levels on day 1 (04 September) with a chance for minor storm levels as CME effects wind down. Quiet to unsettled conditions are expected during days 2 - 3 (05 - 06 September) with a chance for active levels due to arrival of Earth-directed CMEs observed on 02 September along with a co-rotating interaction region ahead of a coronal hole high-speed stream (CH HSS). The CH HSS is expected to commence on day 3. The greater than 10 MeV proton event at geosynchronous orbit is expected to end on day 1.
