For those who haven’t followed: Netanyahu hasn’t been seen in days or made any substantive public statement.
On March 13th Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent was called out of a LIVE interview for an emergency meeting in the Situation room with Trump, then returned visibly shaken refusing to comment on why he had left but saying he’d trust his children’s life to Trump’s hands in the US Military in a visibly halting tone.
This led to all kinds of speculation, but shortly after One video was released of Netanyahu giving a statement which made everyone Narrow in on the most likely possibility:
Netanyahu was hit in an Iranian strike:
The Video which appeared to show Netanyahu alive and well on closer inspection had clear AI artifacting: notably at one point Netanyahu appears to have 6 fingers, while at others fingers appear Salad Fingers long, or extra-joints appear and disappear, at other points his teeth change shape:
This however isn’t actually that odd since a lot of recording equipment and software uses AI post-processing its actually really common for real footage to get ai postprocessing artifacts in release versions of the video especially once its been shared online a few times…
This was a major plot point in the Kyle Rittenhouse trial where the Prosecutor insisted that Kyle’s rifle could be seen firing and doing all kinds of menacing stuff… When on technical inspection these turned out to be artifacts of his macbook video-player’s “Enhance” feature.
AI artifacting in one video on its own wouldn’t show much… Except then Netanyahu was absent from other meetings, and rumors quickly spread:
“Is this why Bessent was so spooked? Did he get news Netanyahu was hit?”
Netanyahu was releasing no statements and the internet was abuzz… Then this video was released:
(notice at the 55 second shot he switches hands on the coffee cup to shake with his right… My friends insist it seems to happens too fast mid-pan as if an AI didn’t realize how gingerly old men move, or failed to maintain object permanence while he was out of shot)
.
Now the entire internet is abuzz looking at the coffee cup and trying to assess the behavior of the liquid coffee or the fabric of his clothing… That many insist they’re behaving oddly or AI… Many have tried to find the Coffeeshop with some arguing that it’s real, others that its closed and hasn’t operated for months, others that it was closed for the photoshoot… And several just obvious lies from both sides.
Some argue the date on the screen of the terminal said 2023 others using other enhance software that it was todays date…
And about a million posts from hasbara bots calling their enemies “retarded”, “peasants”, and “This is why the goyim must be ruled” (Yes mask off moment)
.
But I want you to notice something uncontestable:
How short the video is.
We can debate about AI, Body doubles, AI face Swap, prerecorded fluff statements, prerecorded fluff statements that even reference known obvious AI bugs…
But notice how short it is.
Film isn’t scarce… we don’t even use it. You can record lengthy statements. Politicians tend to JUMP at the opportunity to make lengthy statements, especially when they have a captive audience… Especially in the midst of a war when people already think there’s been a meaningful threat to their health or the state and they want to reassure people or cash in politically.
Think of how many politicians visited Iraq or Afghanistan and wore Body Armor or Camo, desperate to appear to their voters that they’ve suffered some risk to themselves and they aren’t all talk…
Yet in this golden opportunity to deliver his exact message… A politician famous for his English statements delivers a message in Hebrew (no official transcript) glibly, about his coffee.
.
This is such an unnaturally short and bait video, and the substance so utterly lacking and non-date specific. Especially to act glibly about a war and the survival of the state… If he was alive and well he could use it to make any statement he wanted to push some propaganda point while everyone’s waiting, make a statement about the resolve and will of the Israeli people… In English! To an audience with baited breath!
Instead its the EXACT bare minimum to get the shills and bots calling others retards for questioning it, and trying to shame YOU about how HE hasn’t answered questions or made any statement of substance in days. (something we’d criticize politicians for normally)
Ai “weekend at Bernie’s”? Body-Double who only speak Hebrew? Pre-recorded video?
He still hasn’t made any statement of substance or answered any question in days… indeed his son Yair Netanyahu hasn’t either, he hasn’t posted since March 8th, and he usually posts daily.
Sure Benjamin Netanyahu’s old so who knows… maybe his heart just kicked out and he’s undergoing bypass surgery in Europe.
But the fact everyone’s unconvinced and they just haven’t released something substantive or answered press questions… (something most major politicians do daily) speaks to something being hidden.
.
Remember this isn’t just shitposters.
Regimes are vulnerable when the Leader is even PERCIEVED to be sick, weak, or dead… There are many historical examples of countries enduring real coups or real wars starting because of truly false rumors that the leader was sick or dead.
Perfectly healthy leaders have gotten home safe and sound from a hunting trip or helicopter crash or getting lost in the woods… only to find that they’re no longer king their brother or rival took over when everyone thought they were dead in an act of treason… And now that they’re alive, the cleanest solution is to just actually kill them.
This is not something governments play games with.
Indeed if you’ve seen the Tom Cruise film “Valkyrie” you know one of the most famous examples of such an event the attempted July 20 coup following the assassination attempt on Adolf Hitler… if Hitler had merely been slightly more WOUNDED, not killed, it would have worked since his leadership and voice could not have organized a stop to the coup… and his physical person could be finished off where the bomb failed
.
We saw a softer coup in the Soviet Union force Brezhnev and most of his faction from power well before his death when his health declined… He kept his title, but by the end he was little more than a figurehead.
And most pressingly for the current conflict, the Shah of Iran actually did lose his country to Ayatollah Khomeini, the first Supreme Leader, when the Islamic revolution and maneuvering began… not with any political happening… but the Shah’s Cancer diagnosis… something that quickly leaked through international intelligence service chattering.
“I don’t know if the Shah has cancer or not, but in any case, he must die.”
-Chief Justice of the newly created Iranian Revolutionary Court
.
Unless Netanyahu’s purposefully trying to create the rumor that he’s dead so as to bait an enemy, or some other 5d chess maneuver, his security services would be freaking out and demanding that he make a substantive uncontestable demonstration of life lest some faction of the army, some US political group, or a foreign government make a move off the perception of weakness.
Indeed WE CAN SEE THE FREAKOUT, because all the bots and paid influencers are at battle-stations ready to tell you Netanyahu’s fine, and you’re an absolute retard for doubting video evidence the same way they all said Biden was “sharp as a tack”…. And the exact way no one freaks out about actual dumb conspiracy theories such as the one that Biden was replaced with a body double (who was also senile)… No one has to run about and debunk flat earth theory… Indeed you can tell which “conspiracy theories” have the ring of truth to them by which ones get tons of posters and bots trying to shame people out of believing them ( and it is always shame, you’re always called “antisemitic” or “Stupid”… its never a substantive argument. Whereas people who do go out of their way to debunk flat earth or other dumb conspiracies, actually do tend to get a kick out of going into the physical science side of it and the historical epistemology… You can get really good histories of ancient Greek philosophers, Geopositioning and the historical struggles and breakthroughs of navigation by just watching videos debunking flat earth, or good histories of aviation and photography when people debunk aliens).
.
But between Bessent, the AI video, the poorly done follow-up, and Netenyahu’s general absence from the world stage for 3 days, even as rumors fly…
I’m calling it:
He hasn’t made a substantive statement… because he can’t.
Most likely he’s been wounded in an Iranian strike, had a heart attack, or had a stroke and is out of action… but not dead.
Generally when a leader actually dies the rules of succession take over and he’s just made into a martyr… It is conceivable Israel is genuinely THAT paranoid about showing weakness or admitting the effectiveness of Iran’s strikes that they’d rather “Weekend at Bernie’s” a dead Netanyahu than admit an Iranian drone or missile got him… but if they were THAT paranoid, they probably wouldn’t have briefed the US immediately… Unless the US actually wasn’t briefed, and Trump found out via the US’s own intel services.
But vastly more likely he’s “Not Quite Dead”.
So simultaneously he can’t make a substantive statement, they can’t more forward with any succession plan, and its politically sensitive enough he couldn’t even make a statement from a hospital bed (maybe because he can’t, maybe because they can’t show weakness). And they’re just hoping he gets better in a quick enough timeline to make some brave statement soon as possible, and deny Iran the propaganda victory that “they got Netanyahu”… Which might not even be true, it might just be an old man ailment (Heart attack, stroke, exploded prostate)… but which is a victory Iran will certainly try to claim the longer out of action Netanyahu is.
But statistically a mere 14 days into the war it’s vastly more likely to have been a Kinetic hit from Iran than just a random health thing that happens to old men. (barring of course someone else took out Netanyahu… If he was pushing to nuke Iran unilaterally the US or his own security services might have done so)
Even men in their 70s can generally go 2 weeks without being hospitalized from ill health, so something kinetic is just statistically more likely in a war that’s already taken wide sections of Iranian and Israeli leadership.
.
In Conclusion
Is this the end of Netanyahu? Who knows… he might show up minus an arm and up an eyepatch, and reveal he’s released the secret bioweapons and fighting robots… but he’s down for the count.
Ussually I wouldn’t write something this up to the minute But I have people who follow me who have various investments and careers on the line… expect things to get crazy…
But also this just an amazing case study in capabilities the regime does and doesn’t have.
If they had super-secret morph mask and perfect clone body doubles or perfect undetectable AI that could fake 30 minute interviews convincingly and without artifacts…
Well this would have been the time to use it… Instead in a matter of the greatest sensitivity of the survival of the the super-secret 4th topmost level of the US government (Local, State, Federal, Israel)… We’re seeing the upper limits of their powers to fake messages, falsify evidence, and control narratives… And block missiles.
We’re seeing the iron fist without the velvet glove… And we can see all the cracks and rust.
Very worth noting… Remember just because someone is powerful doesn’t mean they’re all powerful, and just because they’re masters of deception doesn’t mean they can reliably deceive the suspicious.
.
In contrast to the legacy media era of 1950-2010… Governments ability to control narratives has well and truly collapsed.
