There’s always a job at the 7-Eleven.
Most of Hezbollah’s cash and gold reserves were destroyed in Israel’s recent strike that eliminated the Hezbollah leader at their headquarters. An estimated $1.5 billion in cash was incinerated, and 2,000 pounds of gold were melted into the earth during the attack.
I wonder how many of Obama’s pallet loads of cash were in the destruction.
Hurry Kamala … a few more pallets of US Cash would garner ALL of the MN and MI Muslim votes! Nevermind the complaints from the hurricane victims. They’re mostly evil paleface settlers.
I love a good story, the only problem is our dufus P.M. in Canada will replace it
To be fair, the gold can be recovered and used, whether its in grains, shrapnel, puddles, coin or bullion.
Has anyone claimed salvage rights?
I know some gold diggers who may be interested.
That’s only 64 million worth. Peanuts compared to the cash burn.
This is the only way to deal with the world’s Islamic terrorist bullies – hit them hard and send them to see their 72 virgins. Unfortunately most of today’s emasculated, woke western ‘leaders’ (e.g. Trudeau, Kamala, Macron) would prefer to sit down and have tea and biscuits with them rather than deal with the problem. They are either too scared or too naïve to act, or in some cases, seem sympathetic to Islamism. To paraphrase Churchill, they keep feeding the crocodile hoping it will eat them last.
Or 72 raisins – the wording of that piece of text is ambiguous.
It’s 72 Vogons, all reciting poetry.
Tragic mistranslation.
“It’s 72 Vogons, all reciting poetry.”
Great reference, KM… 🙂
Awful, isn’t it? The brain the size of a planet, and I’m reduced to making obscure sci-fi references on SDA.
Don’t talk to me about life.
no no no no. the real truth is about *why* they are virgins.
think Shakespearan hag . . .
They’re 72 virgin imps with 12″ barbed cocks.
Because all devout Muslims go to Hell.
I am optimistic that it is a 72-year-old virgin.
24,000 ounces gold at $2667 is $64million.
$1.5billion in Benjamins weighs about 15000kg (15mt).
Kate, Kate, Kate … 7-11 employees require a “slight Indian accent”. Not a slight Lebanese accent. My President said so.
Would you like some beef jerky with that playboy magazine?
Playboy? That’s for Hindu toddlers. You want: Swank, Cherry, Hustler, Cream magazines. And maybe the stuff behind Manila covers? You know … the up close and personal anatomical displays …
I thought beef jerky was PlayGIRL magazine? Or was that beef strokin’-off?
Absolutely correct, Kenji. Equity Joe Biden insists the staff of convenience stores is overwhelmingly East Indian. Let’s don’t even get started on his comments relative to black high school students.
Couldn’t have happened to nicer people!
Remember those commercials 20 years ago saying drugs supported terrorism?
I wonder how much donut shop money gets sent back home.
My son worked in restaurants … and the cooks in the back were the BEST amigos from whom to purchase his drugs.
I thought there was 16 ounces in a pound? ……
1/4 pounder at a time….
Deleted, Garth has a better calculation!
2,000 pounds of gold is 32,000 ounces, or approx. 29,167 troy ounces (which is what gold quoted in ounces is actually using for measurement of mass).
One troy ounce of spot gold (retail — us mere mortals don’t have access to “bulk” prices) is around $2,720 USD or $3,755 CAD this afternoon, so . . . call it around $79,334,240 USD or $109,522,085 CAD.
It’s not 1.5 bill in cash, but that’s still gotta hurt.
I assumed troy pounds since it is gold that’s being weighed. 12 troy ounces per troy pound.
An ounce of gold weighs more than an ounce of feathers, but a pound of feathers weighs more than a pound of gold.
And a pound of dogs weighs more than a pound of Bibles!
I’d be happy to go FULL “Archeologist” on that headquarters ruin!! 🙂 … so long as the IDF is finished knocking on their door … I’d even give half of my $Billion treasure away to a registered charity!
A new gold dream of finding riches in the soil. I’m in.
Think the guys from Oak Island would risk this one?
I don’t believe any of it.
Hey, it’s a great opportunity for a new line of work for unemployed Palestinian tunnel-bulders!
Blowing up $1,500,000,000 of Hezbollah’s cash is the kind of Inflation Reduction Act I can get behind.
Trudeau and Biden will replace it.
And Israel will be demonized for impoverishing genocidal terrorists.
The gun factory near here just laid off 10 workers, after hearing this news.
Hmm?
Shouldn’t there be more big fire video?
You have to ask how the economy is doing when 7-11 is closing 400 stores (thought they are probably closing them for “shrinkage” aka shoplifting)
So probably had for them to get jobs at the remaining ones.
Don’t worry.. Trudeau will top up the terrorist war chest in short order..
“More than 20 years ago, a group of extreme ideologues known as the neoconservatives seized the foreign policy initiative during the presidency of George W Bush. They have since become a permanent foreign policy elite in Washington, whichever administration is in power.
What is distinctive about the neoconservatives is the centrality of Israel to their worldview. They regard Israel’s unapologetic Jewish supremacism and militarism as a model for the West – one in which it returns to an unashamed white supremacism and militarism in a revived spirit of colonialism.
Like Israel, the neoconservatives see the world in terms of a never-ending clash of civilisations against the so-called Muslim world. In this context, international law becomes an obstacle to the West’s victory, rather than a guarantee of global order.
In addition, the neoconservatives view Israel as the battering ram to keep the US in charge of international affairs in the world’s main oil spigot, the Middle East. Israel lies at the heart of Washington’s policy of full-spectrum global dominance.
The neoconservatives have long been sold on Israel’s strategy for achieving such dominance in the Middle East: by Balkanising it. The aim has been to demand utter subservience to Israel, with any source of dissent not only punished, but the social structures that support it crushed into ruins.
In Gaza, that method has been on full show. In destroying government buildings, universities, mosques, churches, libraries, schools, hospitals and even bakeries, Israel has sought to reduce the Palestinian population to the barest of human existence. National identity, and the desire to resist, are luxuries no one can afford. Survival is all.
Israel is beginning to roll out the same scheme for the occupied West Bank, Lebanon and Iran.”

Considering that a lot of Muslim “civilization” and thinking is still stuck in the 7th century, yes, it is a class of civilizations.

“This is Iran’s 56-bed field hospital on the Syria-Lebanon border after it was brutally targeted in an Israeli airstrike.
The attack destroyed ambulances and all medical equipment inside the facility.”

So, what’s your point?
““Intentionally directing attacks against … medical units and transport” is prohibited as a war crime under the ICC’s Rome Statute, HRW noted. “Hospitals and other medical facilities are civilian objects that have special protections under international humanitarian law, or the laws of war.”

Israel has shown again it is a terror state.
The terrorists currently controlling Iran are everyone’s enemy, many just don’t realize it yet.
Thar be gold in them thar craters.
Why would you keep cash and gold in a headquarters that may be a target? I would expect it to be kept in a bank in Qatar, possibly in ‘special’ accounts. This claim would sound like a coverup of an embezzlement if I didn’t know how sacrificing and dedicated the leaders of Hezbollah are.
Nothing to see here, send money.
Not so fast!
“”””Several hundred “underperforming” 7-Eleven locations across North America are closing, the convenience store announced.
Seven & I Holdings, the chain’s Japan-based parent company, revealed in an earnings report Thursday that 444 locations of 7-Eleven are shutting down because of a variety of issues, including slowing sales, declining traffic, inflationary pressures and a decrease in cigarette purchases.”””
