First, whatever you do....DO NOT ACTIVATE THE eSIM

1. Download an app where you can purchase an eSIM for Israel or the Middle East.

The top three needed right now are:

Nomad (Israel 20GB plan/$30 or Middle East 10GB plan/$32 – preferably ME)
Holafly (Israel - Price List by day, unlimited data)
Simly (select Middle East and use promo code ARB for a 25% discount – 6GB valid for 15 days, price before discount $35, after discount $26.25)

2. DO NOT ACTIVATE THE ESIM

3. Take a screenshot of the eSIM QR code. For Nomad, close the app after purchasing and screenshot the email with the QR code. Simly will display the QR code in the app after purchase. I haven't used Holafly yet, but I imagine it is similar.

4. After screenshotting the QR code, email it to gazaesims@gmail.com.

Only email to this address.
For the subject line, use "[CARRIER NAME] eSIM".

5. DTI DTA

If you're concerned this isn't legit, it is.

Here are some instructions on Twitter in case mine don't make sense.

aljazeera is showing clips from israeli talk shows on channels 11,12,13 (why the gently caress does israel have so many government channels wheres channel one or two) and maybe theyre cherry picking but every guest they had on including former military heads and the former chief of Shabak and shin bet are all saying that israel has lost the war and the prisoners wont return alive unless theres a negotiated settlement, theyre also resigning to the fact that Sinwar beat them, and theyre all really terrified of all the polls saying that Hamas has gained tremendous popularity and that if an election in palestine where held today hamas would win in a landslide.

maybe these are cherry picked clips but seeing israelis sad faces and going through the five stages of death on TV is sooo sooo yummy in my tummy :sickos:

Channel 1 closed down a couple years ago and was replaced with Kan. Channel 2 was split into channels 12 and 13.

Also - I'm struck by how (as seems to be the case from your posts ITT) Israeli sources are regularly translated and shared by Arabic media, because the opposite happens waaaay less. Really makes ya think.

im also quite surprised, two decades ago they wouldve never done this much effort. i think it boils down to two things:-

1)Memri was taken seriously as a weapon that is used against arabs all the time to smear them, so a bunch of arab institutions took the effort to turn the tables and translate what israelis say on their TV so that arab people van be educated on how much racism israelis hold against them. its also a very useful tool against normalization and to throw in the face of zionist puppets.

it also helps demistify israel as not this cabal of super competent supersoldiers with super spu powers but it reveals them as they actually are:- a colonialist front of racist over-armed incompetent thugs and criminals.

2) the 'resistance' axis, but especially Hamas and Hezbollah (that aljazeera carries alot of support for specifically Hamas) did what no other arab armies bothered to do:- read and translate what israelis write to themselves in their reports and documents, i am not exagerrating when i say that Hamas and Hezbollah are probably the best Hebrew speakers and understanders in the arab world. so they are able to read and understand the israelis intentions, mindset and actions and reactions much much better than any other group in the middle east.

The American empire is nearing its end, and Israel losing its war with Hamas is proof of that. America will likely have a Soviet Union style collapse in the next 6 - 8 years or so. Our internal politics going completely off the rails over the last 20 years was the writing on the wall that America is coming to an end, and our close allies struggling to handle resistance groups is further proof that we can't do this whole empire thing any longer.

From about 2025 onwards you're also going to start seeing base load power stations being shut down for various reasons with no planned replacements and overtaxed grids that can no longer cope due to reduced capacity and ever increasing demand. When you can't reliably keep the lights on you'll know it's over.

Fair, I figured we are near the tail end, but maybe actually more like in the middle somewhere? The hard part will be accepting that whatever rises from the ashes, is probably going to be full on fascism in North America. Its not gonna be pretty.

even assuming a non-nuclear WW3, it's unlikely that america will have any threats in its hemisphere. they'll probably diminish but relatively less than the US UK is now.

Yeah, we'll probably just be unable to throw our weight and influence around. Economy will mega collapse, and infrastructure will have a super difficult time being repaired/replaced. We as Americans won't have the comfy life styles we are use to, and by extension the world won't get a lot of our innovation (and weapons) anymore. Countries like Israel that were propped up only because of our weapons and military won't be able to exist any longer.

He's been stepping it up lately. Not like I trust him or anything, But he's had some decent interviews lately, and I generally can't stand him but have watched. He's done ok all thing considered.
If I'm going to be cynical, I think he's been getting a lot of views esp since Bassem Youssef and had been going along that line, pushing back against Israel. His show constantly seems to be coming up , something with the demographics seems have changed lately with him and I think he's milking it tbh . Still glad he's giving a platform though
