SILVER//OUTLINE
SILVER COMEX OI ROSE BY A HUGE SIZED 880 CONTRACTS TO 147,439 AND CONTINUING ON ITS MARCH TO THE RECORD HIGH OI OF 244,710, SET FEB 25/2020, AND THIS HUGE LOSS IN COMEX OI WAS ACCOMPLISHED DESPITE OUR GAIN OF $0.00 IN SILVER PRICING AT THE COMEX ON FRIDAY’S TRADING. WE GAINED CONSIDERABLE 780 NET LONGS DESPITE THE LOSS IN PRICE OF 39 CENTS. WE HAD A HUGE GAIN OF 780 TOTAL CONTRACTS ON OUR TWO EXCHANGES. WE HAD CONSIDERABLE LIQUIDATION OF T.A.S. CONTRACTS. //. WE HAD SOME SHORT COVERING BY OUR SPECS WITH THE NO GAIN IN PRICE DURING THE COMEX TIME ZONE.. WE HAD A SMALL 100 CONTRACT EXCHANGE FOR PHYSICAL ISSUANCE ACCOMPANIED BY A STRONG 654 CONTRACT T.A.S ISSUANCE WHICH WILL BEING USED IN FUTURE TRADING. IN ESSENCE WE LOST A HUMONGOUS 974 CONTRACTS ON OUR TWO EXCHANGES DESPITE OUR ZERO GAIN IN PRICE
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE CROOKS NEED A HIGHER SILVER/GOLD T.A.S. TO CARRY ON THEIR CROOKED MANIPULATION ON A DAILY BASIS BUT DEMAND IS JUST TOO HIGH FOR THEM. THE HIGHER ISSUANCE OF T.A.S. IS NOW USED TO TEMPER OUR SILVER/GOLD PRICE RISE OR RAID AS WHAT HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES LAST MONTH AND AGAIN ON FRIDAY. THE ACCUMULATED T.A.S. IS BEING USED TO MANIPULATE PRICES AT THE COMEX NOW EVERY DAY..
CRAIG HEMKE HAS POINTED OUT THAT THE CROOKS USE THE MID MONTH FOR MANIPULATION AS THEY SELL THEIR BUY SIDE OF THE CALENDAR SPREAD FIRST AND THEN KEEP THE SELL SIDE TO LIQUIDATE AT A LATER DATE. THUS WE HAVE TWO VEHICLES THE CROOKS USE FOR MANIPULATION AND BOTH ARE SPREADERS: 1) AT MONTH’S END/SPREADERS COMEX AND 2/ TAS SPREADERS, MID MONTH. TOTAL TAS ISSUED ON FRIDAY NIGHT: 657 CONTRACTS. DESPITE MANY COMPLAINTS THAT THE CROOKS HAVE VIOLATED POSITION LIMITS DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE TAS ISSUED HAVE A VALUE OF ZERO (AS TO POSITION LIMITS FOR OUR CROOKED BANKERS). THE PROBLEM OF COURSE IS THAT THE CROOKS DO NOT LIQUIDATE THE TAS TOGETHER BUT SELL THE BUY SIDE FIRST AND THEN LIQUIDATE THE SELL SIDE TWO MONTHS HENCE. IT IS OBVIOUS MANIPULATION TO THE HIGHEST DEGREE BUT IT NATURALLY FELL ON DEAF EARS WITH OUR REGULATORS (OCC) WHEN THEY RECEIVED OUR COMPLAINTS. IT NOW SEEMS THAT THE OCC HAS ORDERED THE BANKS TO REDUCE ITS NEW LEVEL OF 1 TRILLION DOLLARS IN GOLD/SILVER DERIVATIVES AND THUS THE REASON FOR CONSTANT RAIDS BUT TO NO AVAIL. IT ALSO LOOKS LIKE THE FED (GOV’T) IS BEHIND EVERY DAY TRADING.
WE HAVE IN THE PAST YEAR SET ANOTHER RECORD LOW AT 114,102 CONTRACTS ///JULY 3.2023// OUR BANKERS WITH THE HELP OF SPECULATORS AND HIGH FREQUENCY TRADERS WERE UNSUCCESSFUL IN KNOCKING THE PRICE OF SILVER DOWN (IT FELL BY $0.00 AND WERE UNSUCCESSFUL IN KNOCKING ANY NET SILVER LONGS FROM THEIR PERCH AS WE HAVE A GIGANTIC GAIN OF 780 TOTAL OI CONTRACTS ON OUR TWO EXCHANGES

SPREADING OPERATIONS
(/NOW SWITCHING TO GOLD) FOR NEWCOMERS, HERE ARE THE DETAILS
SPREADING LIQUIDATION HAS NOW COMMENCED AS WE HEAD TOWARDS THE NEW ACTIVE FRONT MONTH OF SEPTEMBER. WE ARE NOW INTO THE SPREADING OPERATION OF GOLD
HERE IS A BRIEF SYNOPSIS OF HOW THE CROOKS FLEECE UNSUSPECTING LONGS IN THE SPREADING ENDEAVOUR ;MODUS OPERANDI OF THE CORRUPT BANKERS AS TO HOW THEY HANDLE THEIR SPREAD OPEN INTERESTS:HERE IS HOW THE CROOKS USED SPREADING AS WE ARE NOW INTO THE NON ACTIVE DELIVERY MONTH OF NOV HEADING TOWARDS THE ACTIVE DELIVERY MONTH OF FEB., FOR GOLD: AND MARCH FOR SILVER
YOU WILL ALSO NOTICE THAT THE COMEX OPEN INTEREST STARTS TO RISE BUT SO IS THE OPEN INTEREST OF SPREADERS. THE OPEN INTEREST IN WILL CONTINUE TO RISE UNTIL ONE WEEK BEFORE FIRST DAY NOTICE OF AN UPCOMING ACTIVE DELIVERY MONTH (OCT), AND THAT IS WHEN THE CROOKS SELL THEIR SPREAD POSITIONS BUT NOT AT THE SAME TIME OF THE DAY. THEY WILL USE THE SELL SIDE OF THE EQUATION TO CREATE THE CASCADE (ALONG WITH THEIR COLLUSIVE FRIENDS) AND THEN COVER ON THE BUY SIDE OF THE SPREAD SITUATION AT THE END OF THE DAY. THEY DO THIS TO AVOID POSITION LIMIT DETECTION. THE LIQUIDATION OF THE SPREADING FORMATION CONTINUES FOR EXACTLY ONE WEEK AND ENDS ON FIRST DAY NOTICE.”
WHAT IS ALARMING TO ME, ACCORDING TO OUR LONDON EXPERT ANDREW MAGUIRE IS THAT THESE EFP’S ARE BEING TRANSFERRED TO WHAT ARE CALLED SERIAL FORWARD CONTRACT OBLIGATIONS AND THESE CONTRACTS ARE LESS THAN 14 DAYS. ANYTHING GREATER THAN 14 DAYS, THESE MUST BE RECORDED AND SENT TO THE COMPTROLLER, GREAT BRITAIN TO MONITOR RISK TO THE BANKING SYSTEM. IF THIS IS INDEED TRUE, THEN THIS IS A MASSIVE CONSPIRACY TO DEFRAUD AS WE NOW WITNESS A MONSTROUS TOTAL EFP’S ISSUANCE AS IT HEADS INTO THE STRATOSPHERE.
The crooks also use the spread in the TAS account (trade at settlement). They buy the spot TAS (e.g. June) and sell the future TAS two months out (e.g. August). Then they unload the front month (i.e. unload the buy side first so the price of gold/silver falls. This occurs in the middle of the front delivery month cycle. They unload the sell side of the equation, two months down the road. The crooks violate position limits as the OCC refuse to hear our complaints.
First, here is an outline of what will be discussed tonight:
1.TODAY WE HAD THE OPEN INTEREST AT THE COMEX IN SILVER ROSE BY A HUGE SIZED 880 CONTRACTS OI TO 147,633 AND CLOSER TO THE COMEX HIGH RECORD //244,710( SET FEB 25/2020). THE LAST RECORDS WERE SET IN AUG.2018 AT 244,196 WITH A SILVER PRICE OF $14.78/(AUGUST 22/2018)..THE PREVIOUS RECORD TO THAT WAS SET ON APRIL 9/2018 AT 243,411 OPEN INTEREST CONTRACTS WITH THE SILVER PRICE AT THAT DAY: $16.53). AND PREVIOUS TO THAT, THE RECORD WAS ESTABLISHED AT: 234,787 CONTRACTS, SET ON APRIL 21.2017 OVER 6 YEARS AGO. HOWEVER WE HAVE NOW SET A NEW RECORD LOW OF 114,102 CONTRACTS JULY 3.2023
EFP ISSUANCE 100 CONTRACTS
OUR CUSTOMARY MIGRATION OF COMEX LONGS CONTINUE TO MORPH INTO LONDON FORWARDS AS OUR BANKERS USED THEIR EMERGENCY PROCEDURE TO ISSUE:
DEC 1 00and ALL OTHER MONTHS: ZERO. TOTAL EFP ISSUANCE: 100 CONTRACTS. EFP’S GIVE OUR COMEX LONGS A FIAT BONUS PLUS A DELIVERABLE PRODUCT OVER IN LONDON. IF WE TAKE THE COMEX OI GAIN OF880 CONTRACTS AND ADD TO THE 100 E.FP. ISSUED
WE OBTAIN A HUGE SIZED GAIN OF OPEN INTEREST CONTRACTS FROM OUR TWO EXCHANGES OF 780 CONTRACTS
THUS IN OUNCES, THE GAIN ON THE TWO EXCHANGES TOTALS 3.900 MILLION OZ OCCURRED WITH OUR $0.39 LOSS IN PRICE

GOLD
LET US BEGIN:
THE TOTAL COMEX GOLD OPEN INTEREST ROSE BY A FAIR SIZED 1,479 CONTRACTS TO 529,919 DESPITE OUR STRONG LOSS IN PRICE OF $1.85 WITH RESPECT TO MONDAY’S TRADING. WE LOST ZERO IN NUMBER LONGS DESPITE THE LOWER PRICE FOR GOLD AS YOU WILL SEE BELOW. WE HAD A FAIR NUMBER OF EXCHANGE FOR PHYSICAL ISSUED (1570). AND THINGS MUST BE DESPERATE AS ON TUESDAY WE HAD THE FIRST ISSUANCE IN OVER 3 MONTHS FOR THAT STUPID EXCHANGE FOR RISK, WHEREBY THE BUYER ASSUMES THE RISK FOR DELIVERY. WHY ON EARTH WOULD A BUYER ASSUME SOMETHING LIKE THIS WHEN YOU ARE GUARANTEED DELIVERY VIA AN EXCHANGE FOR PHYSICAL VIA LONDON? UNLESS FOR HUGE MONEY! TODAY WE REVERTED BACK TO ZERO ISSUANCE OF EXCHANGE FOR RISK. THE LIQUIDATION OF T.A.S. CONTRACTS THROUGHOUT THIS MONTH DISTORTS OPEN INTEREST NUMBERS GREATLY AND IT SURELY WAS ON DISPLAY LAST WEEK AND ESPECIALLY THIS WEEK AS A MAJOR BUYER OF PHYSICAL IS OFF DUE TO GOLDEN WEEK.
THE FED IS THE MAJOR SHORT OF AROUND 157+ TONNES OF GOLD OWING TO THE B.I.S. THE FED NEEDS TO COVER AS THEY ARE VERY WORRIED ABOUT WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO GOLD PRICES ONCE THE BRICS BEGIN THEIR INITIATIVE AND ABANDON THE US DOLLAR. THIS IS SCHEDULED TO HAPPEN LATE OCT 22 -24 2024/. THE FOUR OR FIVE BANKS ARE ALSO WORRIED ABOUT THEIR HUGE PRECIOUS METAL DERIVATIVE EXPOSURE (NORTH OF ONE TRILLION DOLLARS) AND THIS IS PROBABLY THE MAJOR REASON FOR GOLD/SILVER’S RISE. THESE PAST TWO MONTHS. THEY ARE TOTALLY TRAPPED.
OUR PHYSICAL LONDONERS ALSO BOUGHT NEW MASSIVE QUANTITIES OF LONGS AT THESE LOWER PRICES AND THIS GOLD BOUGHT WILL BE TENDERED FOR PHYSICAL ON A T + 1 BASIS. BECAUSE GOLD IS BASEL III COMPLIANT, GOLD MUST BE DELIVERED IN A VERY TIMELY ONE DAY. CENTRAL BANKS AROUND THE WORLD, BEING REPRESENTED BY OUR LONDONERS, ARE THE REAL PURCHASERS OF THIS GOLD.
WE HAD A HUGE T.A.S. LIQUIDATION WITH FRIDAY’S LOSS IN PRICE BUT WITH ZERO LONGS BEING CLIPPED (AS YOU WILL SEE BELOW) BUT WE DID HAVE SOME SHORT COVERING AT LOWER PRICES. THE PROBLEM FOR THOSE PROVIDING THE SHORT PAPER IS THE SHOCK TO THEM ON RECEIVING NOTICE THAT THE LONGS WANT THE PHYSICAL GOLD AS THEY TENDER FOR THAT SHINY YELLOW METAL. THE HIGH LIQUIDATION OF THE SPREADERS // T.A.S DURING LAST WEEK AND THIS WEEK IS SURELY DISTORTING COMEX OPEN INTEREST ESPECIALLY THURSDAY’S LOSS IN OI.
EXCHANGE FOR PHYSICAL ISSUANCE
WE ARE NOW ENTERING INTO THE ACTIVE DELIVERY MONTH OF OCT.… THE CME REPORTS THAT THE BANKERS ISSUED A FAIR SIZED TRANSFER THROUGH THE EFP ROUTE AS THESE LONGS RECEIVED A DELIVERABLE LONDON FORWARD TOGETHER WITH A FIAT BONUS.,
THAT IS A FAIR SIZED 1570 EFP CONTRACTS WERE ISSUED: : /DEC 1570 & ZERO FOR ALL OTHER MONTHS:
TOTAL EFP ISSUANCE: 1570 CONTRACTS. THESE EFP;S CIRCLE AROUND LONDON ON A 13 DAY BASIS AND ARE NOW USED BY GLOBAL CENTRAL BANKS TO EXERCISE FOR PHYSICAL GOLD WITH THE OBLIGATION TO DELIVER BEING FORCED ONTO COMEX BANKS. THE GOLD DELIVERED COMES FROM LONDON.
ON A NET BASIS IN OPEN INTEREST WE GAINED THE FOLLOWING TODAY ON OUR TWO EXCHANGES: A FAIR SIZED TOTAL OF 3049 CONTRACTS IN THAT 1570CONTRACT LONGS WERE TRANSFERRED AS EXCHANGE FOR PHYSICALS TO LONDON AND WE HAD A FAIR GAIN OF 1479 COMEX CONTRACTS..AND THIS GAIN ON OUR TWO EXCHANGES HAPPENED DESPITE OUR LOSS IN PRICE OF $1.85 MONDAY// COMEX. THE EXCHANGE FOR PHYSICALS WILL BE USED BY CENTRAL BANKS, TO EXERCISE FOR PHYSICAL GOLD AS MENTIONED ABOVE.
AS PER OUR NEWBIE TRADE AT SETTLEMENT (TAS) MANIPULATION OPERATION (WHICH CRAIG HEMKE HAS POINTED OUT HAPPENS DURING MID MONTH IN THE DELIVERY CYCLE), THE CME REPORTS THAT THE TOTAL T.A.S. ISSUANCE FOR MONDAY NIGHT, A FAIR SIZED 1321 CONTRACTS, WAS USED TO REPLENISH SUPPLIES.. ALMOST ALL OF THE TRADING AND SUPPLY OF CONTRACTS WAS ORCHESTRATED BY GOVERNMENT (FEDERAL RESERVE BANK OF NEW YORK)

CALCULATIONS FOR THE AMOUNT OF GOLD STANDING FOR OCT.
For the front month of OCT: we have an oi of 320 contracts having LOST 147 contracts.
We had 239 contracts filed on Friday so we GAINED 92 contracts on our two exchanges or 92 CONTRACTS underwent a huge 9200 oz queue jump.

We had 225 contracts filed for today representing 22500 oz
This is a major assault on the comex for gold and this time it is physical that will be requested.
Today, 0 notice(s) were issued from J.P.Morgan dealer and 0 notices issued from their client or customer account. The total of all issuance by all participants equate to 225 contract(s) of which 0 notices were stopped (received) by j.P. Morgan dealer and 69 notice(s) was (were) stopped (received) by J.P.Morgan//customer account
To calculate the INITIAL total number of gold ounces standing for OCT /2024. contract month, we take the total number of notices filed so far for the month (11,304x 100 oz ) to which we add the difference between the open interest for the front month of OCT(320CONTRACTS) minus the number of notices served upon today (225 x 100 oz per contract( equals 1,139,900 OZ OR 35.455 TONNES. TO WHICH WE ADD THAT STUPID 20.174 TONNES OF EXCHANGE FOR RISK, NEW TOTAL = 55.629 TONNES
thus the INITIAL standings for gold for the OCTOBER contract month: No of notices filed so far (11,304 x 100 oz +we add the difference for front month of OCT (320 OI} minus the number of notices served upon today (225x 100 oz which equals 1,139,900 oz (35.455 TONNES + 20.174 EX.

to which we add the difference between the open interest for the front month of OCT (40 and the number of notices served upon today 30x (5000 oz) equals the number of ounces standing.
Thus the standings for silver for the OCT2024 contract month: 1272 Notices served so far) x 5000 oz + OI for the front month of OCT(40) number of notices served upon today minus (30)x 5000 oz of silver standing for the OCT contract month equates to 6.410 MILLION OZ.

Costco Gold Bars Are Selling Out Even As Prices Surge, Survey Finds
Tuesday, Oct 08, 2024 – 07:15 PM
Authored by Jack Phillips via The Epoch Times,
Costco shoppers are purchasing the store’s 1-ounce gold bars at a high rate despite the precious metal’s record-high prices in recent months, according to a recent survey.
Around 77 percent of Costco outlets that sell bullion bars were sold out in the first week of October, a Bloomberg survey found.
The news outlet and financial services company said it surveyed 101 stores in 46 states that sell gold and recently restocked the precious metal.
The apparently high number of sales comes even as gold prices have surged in the past year or so. In the past 12 months, gold is up about 41 percent, going from around $1,864 per ounce to $2,640 per ounce.
According to data provided by the American Precious Metals Exchange (APMEX), the spot price for gold hit a record $2,686 per ounce on Sept. 26.
Costco started selling the 1-ounce gold bars in late 2023 in its stores and via its website, available only to members.
Since then, the company has started selling silver coins and now platinum bars and coins.
Wells Fargo in April estimated that the big-box retailer is selling up to $200 million in gold per month.
“Our work suggests there has been significant interest given Costco’s aggressive pricing and high level of customer trust,” Edward Kelly, an analyst with Wells Fargo, wrote in a note to clients at the time.
“The accelerating frequency of Reddit posts, quick online sell-outs of product, and [Costco’s] robust monthly [ecommerce] sales suggests a sharp uptick in momentum since the launch,” he added.
Meanwhile, Costco Chief Financial Officer Gary Millerchip told Bloomberg that gold and silver are a “meaningful part” of the company’s growth, adding that Costco is happy to have the capacity to offer those products.
“It’s a great example of our merchants constantly finding new ways to deliver uniqueness and value,” he said.
The Epoch Times contacted Costco for comment but received no response by Tuesday morning.
The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has warned that gold isn’t a “safe” investment because “gold and other precious metals are highly volatile and past performance is not a good predictor of future returns.”
“Like other commodities, precious metal prices rise as demand goes up, so when economic anxiety or instability is high, the people who typically profit from precious metals are the sellers,” the CFTC said.
After the success of its selling of gold and silvers, Costco recently started selling platinum bars and coins. Last week, the retail giant listed Canadian Platinum Maple Leaf coins for $1,089.99 and Swiss-made one-ounce platinum bars for $1,089.99, according to an Epoch Times review of its website.
But like its gold and silver offerings, Costco places limitations on how many bars one can purchase at a given time.
In July, Costco said it will hike its annual membership fee by $5 to $65 for the “gold star” members, and to $130 from $120 for executive members, effective Sept. 1. Company executives also recently noted that consumers are spending less during the most recent quarter.
“There’s definitely some signs that the consumer is being very choiceful in how they’re spending their dollars,” Millerchip, the CFO of Costo, said on a post-earnings call on Sept. 26.

Watch: Hezbollah Unleashes Massive Missile Strikes On Israel’s Haifa
Monday, Oct 07, 2024 – 06:00 PM
The last 24 hours have seen Hezbollah launch massive missile strikes on Israel’s major northern port city of Haifa. The rockets have rained down on Haifa since Sunday, and launches have continued into Monday.
Widely circulating social media videos have confirmed a series of direct ground strikes. BBC has said in a Monday update that at least five rockets have been recently launched, inuring eight people and causing damage in Haifa. Dozens more have been sent.
Israel’s military has admitted that its much-touted air defenses have been failing in the north, and says it is investigating as a result.
Hezbollah has since said it is targeting military bases near Haifa, but local reports say a restaurant was among the places to be directly struck, resulting in significant damage.
Jerusalem Post writes that “a restaurant in Haifa had reportedly suffered a direct hit as approximately 20 rockets were identified crossing from Lebanese territory.”
“Among those evacuated for medical treatment, a 13-year-old was reportedly lightly wounded, while two others were moderately wounded from broken glass,” the report details. “Three people sustained light injuries from broken glass, two were lightly injured while heading to a protected area, and one person was treated for anxiety.”
And separately another local media report cites damage in the middle of the city: “Footage captured in Haifa, however, appeared to show heavy damage at a traffic circle struck by a rocket, while other videos showed smoke rising above apartments during the barrage.”
Watch: most significant strikes on Haifa since war’s start…
On Sunday alone a total of some 120 rockets were fired by Hezbollah into northern Israel. By all accounts these projectiles have been reaching further and further into Israel, since the start of the IDF bombing campaign over southern Beirut.
Injuries have also been reported from the town of Tiberias. It has become clear that thus far Israel’s ground offensive in south Lebanon and bombing of Beirut has not stopped Hezbollah rockets from reaching deep into the north.
Among Israel’s chief goals for the Lebanon offensive is to push Hezbollah back dozens of kilometers, to create a buffer zone which will allow Israeli residents of the north to return to their homes.
Al Arabiya confirmed footage which captured the Hezbollah hit on a Haifa restaurant…

Israel’s aerial bombardment of Beirut has remained steady, with jets on Sunday night targeting buildings said to belong to Hezbollah’s intelligence division in Beirut, or places deemed command centers, according to Israeli statements.

Images showed an a strike on an apparent Hezbollah weapons depot, releasing huge and sustained fireballs and secondary explosions. The IDF on Monday warned that the Israeli Navy will soon begin to operate against Hezbollah from the sea.

Hezbollah backs ceasefire attempts as Israel continues to target its leadership
Qassem mentioned in particular the efforts of Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri to restore calm.
By TOVAH LAZAROFF, REUTERSOCTOBER 8, 2024 19:57Updated: OCTOBER 8, 2024 22:56
Hezbollah said it supported efforts to secure a ceasefire with Israel as the IDF continued to target its top leadership and the two armies sharply increased their bombardments.
“After the issue of a ceasefire takes shape, and once diplomacy can achieve it, all of the other details can be discussed and decisions can be taken,” Hezbollah deputy leader Naim Qassem said on Tuesday. “If the enemy [Israel] continues its war, then the battlefield will decide.”
Qassem mentioned in particular the efforts of Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri to restore calm.
“We support the political activity being led by Berri under the title of a ceasefire,” the deputy leader said in his 30-minute televised address.
It was not clear whether this signaled any change in stance, after a year in which the group has said it is fighting to support both Hamas and the Palestinian people in their war with Israel and would not stop without a ceasefire in Gaza.
Qassem says the conflict with Israel was a war about who cries first
US State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller clarified that Israel has not accepted a ceasefire. The word ceasefire was only meaningful, he explained, if it included an agreement for Hezbollah to pull away from Israel’s northern border and back to the Litani River, as set out under the United Nations Security Council Resolution 1701 that detailed the ceasefire terms ending the Second Lebanon War.
“Obviously, we don’t trust Hezbollah,” Miller said. “But you look at what Hezbollah said in 2006 when 1701 was adopted by the UN Security Council… that they would implement 1701 – and they blew through all of their commitments.
“So there is an obvious lack of faith in Hezbollah’s ability to do what it said in 2006 and do what it’s saying it would do now, which is agree to an actual ceasefire that would allow Israeli civilians to return home and allow Lebanese civilians to return home,” the State Department spokesperson said.
Qassem’s statement about a ceasefire, Miller said, shows that Israel has been successful in weakening the group’s military power.
For a year Hezbollah wouldn’t talk about a ceasefire and now that it’s “on the back foot and is getting battered, suddenly they’ve changed their tune and want a ceasefire. I think it’s not surprising given the situation they find themselves in,” he said.
Speaking from an undisclosed location, Qassem said the conflict with Israel was a war about who cries first, and Hezbollah would not be the first to cry. The group’s capabilities were intact despite “painful blows” from Israel.
“Dozens of cities are within range of the resistance’s missiles. We assure you that our capabilities are fine,” he said.
His televised address was shown on the same day that Israel announced it had killed Hashem Safieddine, a top Hezbollah official who was set to replace the Lebanese-based terrorist group’s leader Hassan Nasrallah.
Israel assassinated Nasrallah at the end of September just two days after the United States and France had proposed a 21-day ceasefire to allow an opportunity for a diplomatic resolution to the year-long IDF-Hezbollah war along Israel’s border just as Israel increased the level of its military activity against it.
The assassination and the expansion of the IDF-Hezbollah war placed those efforts on the back burner even as the international community and US President Joe Biden continued to call for diplomacy.
The United States clarified Tuesday that it sought the“right time” for such a ceasefire agreement.
“We’re going to be having regular consultations with the Israelis, with the Lebanese, and others regarding the right moment to — to press for such an agreement,” White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters on Monday.
“We are in regular conversations” with the Israelis and the Lebanese “on this particular issue,” she said. “We need to have some space, some diplomatic dialogue in order to get there.”
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued an English-language video in which he appealed to the Lebanese people to rise up against Hezbollah, as he confirmed that Israel had killed Safieddine, who has not been seen since October 3.
“We have degraded Hezbollah’s capabilities; we took out thousands of terrorists, including Nasrallah himself, and Nasrallah’s replacement, and the replacement of his replacement,” Netanyahu stated.
“Today, Hezbollah is weaker than it has been for many, many years,” he stressed in an unusual English language video.
The prime minister called on the Lebanese people to save their country by ousting the Iranian proxy group Hezbollah, a non-state actor that he explained had destroyed Lebanon, which had once been known as the “Pearl” of the Middle East.
“So, what happened to Lebanon? A gang of tyrants and terrorists destroyed it. That’s what happened,” he said.
“Lebanon was once known for its tolerance, for its beauty; today, it’s a place of chaos, a place of war,” Netanyahu stated.
“You have an opportunity to save Lebanon before it falls into the abyss of a long war that will lead to destruction and suffering as we see in Gaza. It doesn’t have to be that way,” he said.
“I say to you, the people of Lebanon: Free your country from Hezbollah so that this war can end; free your country from Hezbollah so that your country can prosper again so that future generations of Lebanese and Israeli children will know neither war nor bloodshed, but will finally live together in peace.”
Netanyahu spoke as Israel has significantly expanded the scope of its military activity against Hezbollah in Lebanon in recent weeks.
France and Qatar delivered urgent humanitarian aid to Lebanon on Tuesday, French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot said, as Paris pushed for broader humanitarian efforts and a ceasefire in the country.
“If we don’t do anything, then Lebanon tomorrow could resemble what Syria has become,” Barrot told lawmakers in parliament: “a hub of instability for smuggling, terrorism and a point of departure for a large migration of civilians seeking refuge in Europe.”
French and Qatari military planes delivered some 27 metric tons of medicines and basic necessities, including blankets and hygiene kits, diplomatic sources said, speaking on condition of anonymity.
The French Foreign Minister called on both Israel and Hezbollah to accept the 21-day ceasefire proposal to “give peace and negotiations a chance to guarantee the sovereignty of Lebanon and security for Israel.”
France is also working to put together a conference on Lebanon soon that will center around three pillars: humanitarian aid, reinforcing the Lebanese army, and discussing the ongoing political vacuum in the country, Barrot said.

IDF destroys Hezbollah tunnel that crossed into Israel, steps up airstrikes
Barrage of 25 rockets fired at Kiryat Shmona, launchers used in earlier Haifa attack destroyed; military says strike killed chief of Hezbollah’s logistical HQ

Israeli forces have demolished a small Hezbollah tunnel that crossed into Israeli territory from Lebanon, the military announced Tuesday, as its ground operation north of the border continued to target the terror group’s infrastructure.
According to the Israel Defense Forces, the 20-meter-long tunnel had no exit in Israeli territory, and its path crossed the UN-recognized Blue Line by about 10 meters, in the western sector of the border, near the Lebanese village of Marwahin, just across from the Israeli community of Zar’it.
No towns were ever under any threat by the tunnel, the military said
According to Israeli military assessments, Hezbollah began the construction of the tunnel about two years ago, and it was quickly identified by the IDF. The military said it wanted to keep tabs on the tunnel as it was being built, rather than reveal to Hezbollah that it had intelligence of the underground route.
The tunnel was physically located by commandos during raids in southern Lebanon several months ago, though the military stressed that it was previously known to the IDF and it had full control over the area.
The military said troops searched the tunnel and found weapons inside, including explosives and anti-tank missiles.
Now that the IDF is operating in southern Lebanon with larger forces, it said it took the opportunity to demolish the tunnel.
According to the IDF, there are no other tunnels known to cross into Israel from Lebanon.

Meanwhile, the IDF said Hezbollah launched some 180 rockets from Lebanon at northern Israel on Tuesday, including a barrage of some 25 projectiles fired in the evening at Kiryat Shmona.
According to the military, some of the rockets were intercepted, while others impacted in the area.
There were no reports of injuries or major damage.
According to military figures, Hezbollah launched some 180 rockets from Lebanon at northern Israel on Tuesday.
Some of the rocket launchers used by Hezbollah to fire 105 projectiles at Haifa earlier in the day were struck by an Israeli Air Force drone, the military said, adding that it carried out several strikes against Hezbollah buildings and anti-tank missile launch posts in southern Lebanon over the past day.

After the barrage, the IDF Home Front Command issued stricter guidelines in several cities near Haifa, preventing schools from operating in Kiryat Ata, Kiryat Bialik, Kiryat Yam, and Kiryat Motzkin.
Schools will stay open in Haifa itself, provided that a bomb shelter can be reached quickly enough, the IDF said.
Airstrike kills chief of Hezbollah’s logistics center
Overnight, the IDF said it struck a weapons depot and another Hezbollah site in Beirut, and Monday night, the military said a drone strike was carried out against a school in southern Lebanon’s Tayr Harfa, where a group of Hezbollah operatives were spotted.
IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari said Tuesday that 50 operatives and at least six top commanders in Hezbollah’s so-called Southern Front were killed in a wide wave of airstrikes in southern Lebanon the previous day.
The Southern Front, responsible for the terror group’s military activity in south Lebanon, was commanded by Ali Karaki, who was killed alongside Hezbollah terror chief Hassan Nasrallah last month.
“The terrorists we killed yesterday are the commanders and terrorists who were set to — on the day that the order would be given — infiltrate Israel, into towns in the north, to murder and kidnap Israeli civilians,” Hagari said.
The IDF named one of those killed as the head of Hezbollah’s logistical headquarters, Suhail Hussein Husseini.
He was also a member of Hezbollah’s Jihad Council, the terror group’s top military body.
“Husseini played a crucial role in weapon transfers between Iran and Hezbollah and was responsible for distributing the advanced weaponry among Hezbollah’s units, overseeing both the transportation and allocation of these arms,” the IDF said.
The military said that he was “responsible for the budgeting and logistical management of Hezbollah’s most sensitive projects, including the organization’s war plans and other special operations, such as coordinating terrorist attacks against the State of Israel from Lebanon and Syria.”
The military said the headquarters also included Hezbollah’s R&D, which is responsible for the manufacture of precision-guided missiles.
On the ground, troops of the Golani Brigade captured a Hezbollah fighting position in southern Lebanon, located in an olive grove and an adjacent home, the IDF said.

The military said the troops found a primed mortar aimed at Israel, ammunition, tunnel infrastructure, and resting areas for the Hezbollah operatives.
Inside the home, the IDF said the soldiers found a cache of weapons, including firearms, anti-tank missiles, and other equipment.
The IDF said the equipment and site would have been used to ambush Israeli soldiers and attack towns in northern Israel.
450 Hezbollah operatives killed in week of operations
According to fresh IDF assessments on Tuesday, some 450 Hezbollah operatives had been killed by troops and airstrikes amid the past week of ground operations. Four IDF divisions are currently operating in Lebanese villages along the border, the latest being deployed on Monday night.
The IDF’s 98th Division summarized a week of operations in southern Lebanon, reporting that its troops had killed over 200 Hezbollah operatives in several villages adjacent to the Israeli border.
The elite formation of paratrooper and commando units, joined by the 7th Armored Brigade and elite Yahalom combat engineering unit, were the first Israeli forces to enter Lebanon when the official ground operations began on September 30.
The IDF said the division had demolished several tunnels and located hundreds of weapons in villages close to the border, which were intended to have been used by Hezbollah to attack northern Israel.
More than 100 tons of explosives have been used by the division to demolish Hezbollah sites above and below ground, according to military sources.
The division, which previously battled Hamas in Gaza for months, said Hezbollah is a different enemy from Hamas, but not necessarily stronger.
The division has found Hezbollah to be a far more organized fighting force than Hamas, but largely operating above ground and not in tunnels like the terror group in Gaza. Hezbollah also has more advanced weapons and better fortifications, the division has identified.
Still, the division said it has the upper hand and has been successful with its operations.
Last week, six members of the Egoz Commando Unit were killed during a fierce battle with Hezbollah operatives, and another three paratroopers were killed in separate incidents that same day.
Separately Tuesday evening, in Syria, an alleged Israeli airstrike on Damascus targeted a top Hezbollah official in the terror group’s Unit 4400, the Saudi news outlet Al-Hadath reported.
Unit 4400 is tasked with delivering weapons from Iran and its proxies to Hezbollah in Lebanon.
Syria’s state-run SANA news agency, citing a military source, reported that seven civilians were killed and 11 others were wounded in the strike, which hit a residential and commercial building in the Mezzeh district of the capital.
In addition to the casualties, the strike caused “significant material damage,” it said. It added that rescue forces are still working to extract people from under the rubble.
Since the beginning of the Syrian civil war in 2011, Israel — which rarely comments on individual strikes in Syria — is believed to have carried out hundreds of strikes, mainly targeting army positions and Iran-backed fighters including from Hezbollah.
Hezbollah began launching missiles at Israel exactly a year ago in support of its ally Hamas following the attack on southern Israel on October 7, 2023, in which some 1,200 people were killed and 251 were taken hostage.
Hezbollah’s top leaders have repeatedly stated over the last year that the group would not stop its fire until a Gaza ceasefire was reached, but that appeared to change Tuesday after deputy leader Naim Qassem expressed support for efforts to reach an end to the fighting without mentioning the war in the enclave.

Israel stepped up its strikes on Hezbollah in recent weeks as it seeks to push the terror group away from the border in accordance with a 2006 UN resolution.
The escalation followed Israel’s decision last month to make the return of northern residents to their homes an official war aim. Some 60,000 residents were evacuated from northern towns on the Lebanon border shortly after Hamas’s October 7 onslaught, out of fear Hezbollah would carry out a similar attack.
Attacks on northern Israel have resulted in the deaths of 26 civilians in Israel. In addition, 33 IDF soldiers and reservists have died in cross-border skirmishes and in the ground operation launched in southern Lebanon in late September.
Two soldiers in northern Israel have been killed in a drone attack from Iraq, and there have also been several attacks from Syria, without any injuries.
Hezbollah has named 516 members — including Nasrallah — who have been killed by Israel during the war, mostly in Lebanon but also some in Syria. Another 94 operatives from other terror groups, a Lebanese soldier, and dozens of civilians have also been killed.
These numbers have not been consistently updated since Israel began its new offensive against Hezbollah in September, including the ground operation in which the military says at least 450 Hezbollah operatives have been killed.

Iran Earthquake Sparks Speculation, Rumors Of Covert Nuclear Weapons Test
Monday, Oct 07, 2024 – 09:45 PM
On Saturday a 4.5-magnitude seismic event occurred in Iran’s Semnan province, sparking speculation that Iran has tested a nuclear weapon for the first time. Such a seismic event is typically the result of an earthquake, but speculation has arisen on social media suggesting the event was instead an underground nuclear test carried out by the Islamic Republic in response to Israeli threats to bomb Tehran’s nuclear energy and oil facilities.
According to Iranian sources speaking with The Cradle, the possibility that a nuclear test was indeed conducted is being discussed at high levels in Iran. Syrian sources speaking with The Cradle in September predicted that Iran would seek to develop breakout nuclear weapons capability in response to Israel’s assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran.
Iran launched at least 180 ballistic missiles at Israel, causing damage to three airbases on October 1, following Israel’s assassination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah and IRGC commander Abbas Nilforushan on September 27. Iran is now awaiting a possible Israeli response.
The speculation that Iran carried out a nuclear test comes just days after the Heritage Foundation, a right-wing think tank in the US, published a report stating that “Iran can produce nuclear weapons far more rapidly than expected.”
Published on October 1st, the report noted that in late April 2024, a senior Iranian lawmaker stated that there is only a “one-week gap from the issuance of the order to the first test” of a nuclear bomb.
In May, an adviser to Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei warned that Iran may be forced to change its nuclear doctrine, which until now has called only for using nuclear technology for civilian purposes. “We have no decision to build a nuclear bomb, but should Iran’s existence be threatened, there will be no choice but to change our military doctrine,” Kamal Kharrazi stated.
The Heritage Foundation report added that in July, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken seemed to corroborate this claim when he stated that “instead of being at least a year away from having the breakout capacity of producing fissile material for a nuclear weapon, [Iran] is now probably one or two weeks away.”
The statements accompanied a significant increase in Iran’s stockpile of Uranium enriched to the 60 percent level between May and August 2024, according to a report by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
Notably, Uranium that is enriched up to 60 percent purity is just a short, technical step away from the 90 percent required for nuclear weapons, the report added.
The Foundation for Defense of Democracy (FDD), an Israeli-linked think tank based in Washington, DC, issued a report in 2019 claiming that Iran had begun a program to build underground nuclear test sites starting in the 2000s known as “Project Midan.”
The FDD stated, “Using openly available, corroborating geospatial information, we have identified the likely location (in an area southeast of Semnan) where underground non-nuclear explosives tests were conducted in 2003 as part of developing seismic methods of measuring the yield of an underground nuclear explosive.”

Ron Paul: American Neocons Get Their Iran War As Congress Sleeps
Tuesday, Oct 08, 2024 – 08:05 PM
Authored by Ron Paul
Over the weekend, the Commander of the US Central Command (CENTCOM), General Michael Kurilla, arrived in Israel to “coordinate” with the Israeli military and plan a military strike against Iran. Think about that for a moment: one of the highest-ranking officers in the US military is planning a war in a foreign country against another foreign country which will be fueled by American weapons, American intelligence, and American tax dollars.
Did that foreign country – Iran – attack the United States or threaten Americans? No, it did not. What did Iran do to warrant a CENTCOM commander bringing the weight of the US military into play to plan a war – possibly WWIII? It retaliated against Israeli airstrikes including the assignation of a Hamas leader, Ismail Haniyeh, in Tehran.
It was the Israeli missile attack on Tehran – an unprecedented event – that set off this chain of escalation, but few would know if from media coverage. This war fever between Israel and Iran not only has nothing to do with us, but our increasing involvement actually hurts our national interests in the region.
After a deadly and futile three-year proxy war against Russia in Ukraine, the last thing we need is another war in the Middle East, especially against Iran. But make no mistake, war is what we are getting. This Administration has even offered to “compensate” Israel with even more weapons and diplomatic support if they hit targets of the US choosing and avoid others in Iran.
Imagine if China sent military officials to Iran to pay Tehran to make sure some US targets were struck and others avoided. Would we consider it Iran’s war against us, or China’s war against us? Both?
Has Congress declared war on Iran or even authorized the war? No.
Has this Administration explained to us why Americans suffering after the catastrophic Hurricane Helene are on their own because we need to spend billions on a war that is none of our business? No. The neocons have wanted this war for decades and for them it’s always America last.
This war will make us less free, less safe, and much poorer. There will be no benefits at all, only downside.
Will the Biden/Harris Administration greenlight Israel taking out Iran’s oil production and other energy facilities? That would mean the average American already suffering under high inflation and an economic downturn would be paying orders of magnitude higher for not just gasoline, but everything. Consider the cost of shipping and trucking and every aspect of our lives that depends on world energy prices. It would be an economic calamity for Americans for the benefit of a foreign country. This is what they call patriotism?
We are sleepwalking into a catastrophic war, lulled into compliance by non-stop media propaganda. More billions will be drained from our economy and many more innocent lives will be lost in this madness. Almost a quarter of a century later we still have not learned the lessons of 9/11.
When we go abroad wreaking havoc and destruction on foreign populations who have not harmed us we create enemies who will seek revenge. We harm ourselves. And we risk blowback. The time to oppose this impending war is NOW!

Israeli strike in Syria said to target top Hezbollah official in arms smuggling unit
Syrian state media reports 7 killed in Damascus after building hit near Iranian embassy; not immediately clear if reported assassination attempt successful

An alleged Israeli airstrike on Damascus Tuesday targeted a top Hezbollah official who is part of a unit tasked with delivering weapons from Iran and its proxies to the terror group in Lebanon, according to a Saudi report.
Syria’s state-run SANA news agency claimed seven civilians were killed and 11 others were wounded in the strike, which hit a residential and commercial building in the Mezzeh district of the capital a few hundred meters from the Iranian embassy.
Multiple reports said the targeted building is linked to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
SANA cited a military source who said the strike also caused “significant material damage.” It added that rescue forces were still working to extract people from under the rubble.
State media earlier claimed that Syria’s air defenses had intercepted “hostile” targets in the vicinity of Damascus.
The Saudi news outlet Al-Hadath reported the target of the Damascus strike was a member of Hezbollah’s Unit 4400, but did not say if the attempt was successful. The IDF has overseen efforts in recent weeks to stop the unit’s arms smuggling to Hezbollah.

Last week, the commander of Hezbollah’s Unit 4400, Muhammad Ja’far, was killed in a strike in Beirut, while his brother was reportedly killed days later in an alleged Israeli strike in Damascus.
On Friday, the IDF said that fighter jets struck a two-mile-long tunnel that crossed between Lebanon and Syria, and which the military said was used by Unit 4400 to smuggle weapons.
Last month, it was reported that Israeli special forces carried out a massive raid on an Iranian weapons facility in the Masyaf area in Syria, killing at least 14 people, wounding 43, and sparking fires.
Since the beginning of the Syrian civil war in 2011, Israel — which rarely comments on individual strikes in Syria — is believed to have carried out hundreds of strikes, mainly targeting army positions and Iran-backed fighters including from Hezbollah.
Since Hamas’s brutal October 7 massacre last year, which saw some 1,200 people killed in Israel and 251 kidnapped, Israel has escalated its strikes on Iranian-backed terror targets in Syria and has also struck Syrian army air defenses and some Syrian forces.
Hezbollah has been exchanging near-daily fire with Israel since it started launching attacks from Lebanon a day after its Palestinian ally Hamas’s terror onslaught, which sparked the war in Gaza.

Missile fired from Yemen shot down after triggering sirens across central Israel
Sirens activate due to possibility of falling shrapnel as projectile intercepted with Arrow missile defense system; Houthis claim responsibility
By Emanuel Fabian Follow7 October 2024, 8:01 pmUpdated at 10:14 pm

A ballistic missile launched from Yemen was successfully intercepted by Israeli air defenses after it triggered sirens across central Israel on Monday, the military said.
The surface-to-surface missile was shot down with the Arrow defense system, which is designed to take out ballistic missiles while they are still outside the atmosphere, the Israel Defense Forces said.
Sirens were triggered across central Israel due to the possibility of falling shrapnel from the interception.
Yemen’s Houthis claimed to have fired two missiles at military targets in central Israel. They said one missile was a Palestine 2 and it “reached” its target. The group said the second was a Dhu al-Fiqar missile but did not describe its outcome.
The Yemeni group said the operation “successfully achieved its objectives” and it targeted several drones at Jaffa and Eilat. Israel only mentioned the intercepted surface-to-surface missile, without referring to the drones or a second missile.
The rebel group has fired over 220 ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and drones at Israel over the past year — mostly toward the southernmost city of Eilat — saying that the attacks are in solidarity with Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, where Israel has been battling Hamas since the terror group’s October 7 attack.
The latest attack came on the one-year anniversary of the terror onslaught.
On Thursday, the Iran-backed rebel group claimed responsibility for overnight drone attacks on central Israel. Two were shot down, while another impacted an open area, the IDF said.

The Houthis have also targeted ships traveling through the Red Sea, which once saw $1 trillion a year of cargo pass through it.
They have targeted more than 80 merchant vessels with missiles and drones since the war in Gaza started last October, including seizing one vessel and sinking two in a campaign that also killed four sailors. Other missiles and drones have either been intercepted by a US-led coalition in the Red Sea or failed to reach their targets, which have included Western military vessels.
The rebels maintain that they target ships linked to Israel, the US, or the United Kingdom to force an end to Israel’s campaign against the Hamas terror group in Gaza. However, many of the ships attacked have little or no connection to the conflict, including some bound for Iran.

Largest Crude Transhipment Hub In Crimea On Fire After Ukraine Drone Attack
Monday, Oct 07, 2024 – 11:00 PM
Ukraine says it successfully hit a major oil terminal in Crimea in an overnight drone and missile operation. The impacted oil terminal is in Feodosia, on the south coast of the Crimean peninsula, and is believed to be a key Russian military supply hub. It is also the biggest petroleum transhipment hub in the region.
“At night, a successful strike was carried out on the enemy’s offshore oil terminal in temporarily occupied Feodosia, Crimea,” the Ukrainian military announced Monday.
It further described the strike on the key facility as part of an ongoing effort to “undermine the military and economic potential of the Russian Federation.”
On the Crimean side, the following was confirmed:
Russian-installed authorities in Crimea said a fire had broken out at an oil facility in the Black Sea port town of some 70,000 people and that there were no casualties.
The defense ministry said that 12 Ukrainian attack drones had been downed over the peninsula overnight, out of a total of 21 deployed by Kyiv against Russian targets.
RT News also confirmed the major oil hub is on fire. Such attacks on vital energy infrastructure have proven hard for Russia to defend against, as they’ve come at a fast pace, but this still hasn’t changed the state of the front lines in Eastern Ukraine, where Kiev forces are being steadily pushed back.
A Ukrainian media report has described of videos from the scene, “More night videos from Feodosia. It is clearly visible that at least three tanks are on fire.” And related to more footage: “Later, a morning video was posted on the Telegram channel, where plumes of smoke can be seen over Feodosia.”
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in a new interview with Newsweek took the opportunity to warn the West yet again that it is playing with fire in mulling giving Kiev the greenlight for long-range strikes on Russian territory.
Purported overnight video within hours after the attack on Feodosia on the Crimean coast:
“They are discussing authorizing the AFU [Armed Forces of Ukraine] to use Western long-range missiles to strike deep into Russian territory. ‘Playing with fire’ in this way may lead to dangerous consequences,” the top diplomat said.
“As stated by [Russian] President [Vladimir] Putin, we will take adequate decisions based on our understanding of the threats posed by the West. It is up to you to make conclusions,” Lavrov emphasized.
President Zelensky had pitched this long-range capability as part of his ‘victory plan’ in Washington recently, but it has become clear even to the US administration that Ukraine is not going to win Eastern Ukraine back.
By many accounts Zelensky was subject to an icier reception on Capitol Hill compared to past visits. But Biden has still been more than willing to shovel billions in taxpayer funds out the door into Kiev’s coffers. Vice President Harris is vowing to continue doing the same if she’s elected.

September 28, 2024

September 27, 2024
Lynyrd Skynyrd’s Johnny Van Zant is opening up about the family emergency that led to the band canceling five shows on their Sharp Dressed Simple Man tour with ZZ Top. The initial announcement revealed that Johnny’s daughter had to have emergency surgery. In a video posted to social media Thursday, Van Zant shares that it was his youngest daughter, Taylor Marion, and that doctors found a mass on her brain. “A couple of days ago, Taylor started having [a] numbing feeling on her right side. She went to the emergency room,” he said. “They did a CAT scan and they found a, the only way to say it is a mass on her brain. And some of it was bleeding, that was causing the numbing part.” Johnny says doctors don’t believe it’s cancer, but notes “they’re still doing a lot of testing and we’re not out of the woods yet, but we’re in a lot better position than we thought we were in, in the beginning.” Lynyrd Skynyrd was forced to cancel shows in Anchorage, West Valley, Loveland, Colorado Springs and Albuquerque. Their next scheduled show is at the Field & Stream Festival in Winnsboro Mills, South Carolina, taking place Oct. 4-6.

Singer Cancels Concert at the Last Minute Under Doctor’s Orders: Gracie Abrams Apologizes
October 7, 2024
Gracie Abrams was forced to cancel her recent The Secret of Us Tour concert. The “I Love You, I’m Sorry” singer, 25, apologized to fans after she was forced to abruptly cancel her Sunday, Oct. 6 sold-out performance at New York City’s Radio City Music Hall under doctor’s order due to a “vocal injury.”
“Hi sweet friends, I’ve just been informed by my doctor that I can’t perform tonight due to vocal injury,” Abrams wrote on her Instagram Story. “I’m devastated and crushed to disappoint you. I know that so many of you have been lined up outside Radio City Music Hall since early morning, that others of you took time off from work and school, that many more of you have traveled far distances and that all of us were excited to be together.”
Abrams, who kicked off her three-night stint at Radio Music Hall on Oct. 4 and had performed at the venue just one night prior to the cancellation, did not offer further details on her condition, though she previously opened up to The Hollywood Reporter about the vocal strain she can experience while on tour. Speaking with the outlet, the singer revealed, “Sometimes I won’t speak, like if I can get away with like not speaking for a day. It’s funny because when you’re touring, vocal rest days are really important, otherwise you’ll strain and get exhausted and blow it.”
Perry Farrell seeing medical specialists following viral onstage incident
September 24, 2024
Perry Farrell [65] is seeing two medical specialists following his onstage incident with Jane’s Addiction, which led the band to cancel their remaining tour dates. Farrell’s wife, Etty Lau Farrell, shared via Instagram, “… As you know, Perry is the gentlest of souls. We are equally astonished at Perry’s physical outburst as you are – but you must know that Perry must had been pushed to his absolute limit…to that end we apologize.” She continued, “We are taking a bit of time to ourselves, to reflect and to heal. Perry already has appointments with an otolaryngologist and a neurologist. If you know and love Perry well, you know there’s no need for me to address the other false narratives. Our souls know.” During Jane’s Addiction’s show in Boston on Sept. 13, Farrell attacked Navarro during the band’s performance of “Ocean Size.” Crew members and bassist Eric Avery then subdued Farrell, with Avery getting a few hits on Farrell in the process. On Sept. 16, Navarro, Avery and drummer Stephen Perkins issued a joint statement via Instagram. Their statement began, “Due to a continuing pattern of behavior and the mental health difficulties of our singer Perry Farrell, we have come to the conclusion that we have no choice but to discontinue the current US tour.” The statement continues, “Our concern for his personal health and safety as well as our own has left us no alternative. We hope that he will find the help he needs.”

Rock star in remission from aggressive cancer thanks to NHS trial
September 30, 2024
Mike Peters [65], frontman of Welsh band The Alarm, is in remission from aggressive cancer thanks to an NHS drug trial. The rock star, who was forced to cancel a US tour earlier this year after being diagnosed with fast-growing lymphoma, has been given the all-clear following experimental therapy at the Christie NHS Foundation Trust in Manchester. Peters, who has supported U2 and Status Quo on tour, was first diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) more than 29 years ago aged 36. He has since undergone numerous drug treatments and rounds of chemotherapy, and had thought his cancer was being held in check. However, in April this year, five days before he was due to fly to Chicago for a 50-date US tour, he noticed that a lump in his neck had appeared overnight. Doctors quickly realised the rock star may have developed Richter’s syndrome, where CLL changes into a much more aggressive lymphoma.
