💤 US Army's troubled $11 million marketing deal with The Rock yields zero recruits

The high-dollar, high-profile deal likely didn't lead to a single new Army recruit, internal documents and emails show. (Military.com)

The Army inked the deal earlier this year with the UFL, the upstart minor league alternative to the NFL - it included Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, a global superstar and owner of the league, who was supposed to serve as a pseudo brand ambassador for the Army.

The UFL deal was so catastrophic, it actually led to a projected loss of 38 enlistments, an internal review of the plan shows.

The Army wants to recoup $6 million from the UFL - a definite case of buyer’s remorse.

🔴 Israel Assassinates Hamas Political Leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran

Hamas said in a statement that Haniyeh, who lived in exile, died after a “treacherous Zionist” attack on his residence in Tehran.

The killing came hours after Israel had killed a senior Hezbollah commander in Beirut.

Israel has opened the gates of Hell in the Middle East - a weak and pathetic US govt has allowed this to happen.

🤔 ‘Haniyeh was leading the negotiations for Hamas with Israel for a ceasefire... one of the key questions on my mind is, what happens to the ceasefire negotiations?’ - Sky News report

Its almost as if Israel has been blocking a deal for months and doesn’t actually want a ceasefire agreement…

Netanyahu is all about saving his political skin.

😒 REMINDER: Israel can pinpoint assassinate senior leaders of Hamas and Hezbollah in hostile foreign capitals - with little ‘collateral damage’

However, to try and assassinate Hamas leaders in the tiny, occupied Gaza Strip, they apparently first have to kill 14,000 Palestinian kids.

Genocide.

⚠️ Palestinian factions call for general strike in the occupied West Bank after Haniyeh killing

“The national and Islamic factions in Palestine announce a comprehensive strike and anger marches to protest the assassination of the great national leader Ismail Haniyeh, which came in the framework of Zionist state terrorism and its war of extermination,” the Palestinian factions in the West Bank said a joint statement.

❗️"With this action, the criminal and terrorist Zionist regime has prepared the ground for a harsh punishment for itself” – Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei

“We consider it our duty to seek the blood of him [Haniyeh] who was martyred in the Islamic Republic of Iran."

Who was Ismail Haniyeh?  

🔹 Haniyeh was born in a refugee camp near Gaza City in 1962, joining Hamas in the late 1980s during the First Intifada, or uprising.

🔹 The 62-year-old served as prime minister of the Palestinian Authority between 2006 and 2007, after Hamas won a majority of seats in the Palestinian legislative elections at the time. 

🔹 After the establishment of a Hamas-led administration in the Gaza Strip, as a result of Hamas’ spat with rival Fatah faction, Haniyeh served as the leader of the de facto government in Gaza in 2007-2014.  

🔹 In 2017, he was selected to replace Khaled Meshaal as Hamas’s political bureau chief. 

🔹 Haniyeh left Gaza in December 2019, living in Turkiye and Qatar, and building up his authority to represent Hamas abroad. 

🔹 His most notable previous visits included the funeral of Qassem Soleimani, a top commander of the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) who was killed by a US drone strike in 2020, and the inauguration of Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi in 2021.

🔹 In April of this year, Israeli airstrikes killed three of Haniyeh’s sons and four of his grandchildren, with Haniyeh making clear at the time that their deaths would not affect the ceasefire, and the hostage talks that were under way back then.
