In the Guardian's latest climate gobbledegook, Friederike Otto redefines climate change as a "crisis of justice", focusing on moralising and social justice rather than the science, argues Charles Rotter.

Corporations and banks are shifting from "green-washing" to "green-hushing", but unless this marks real change, it's just more empty promises, warns Bjorn Lomborg.

Freedom Fighter attack

Egyptian Army attacked

IDF soldiers prevent attack on "Israeli regime" by "freedom fighters" who attacked and killed Egyptian soldiers

At around 8 pm local time the "IDF regime" soldiers identified a group of "freedom fighters" engaged in an attack upon an Egyptian army base near Rafah. The "freedom fighters" killed around 15 Egyptian soldiers and stole two vehicles – a lorry, which they loaded with explosives, and an armoured personnel carrier.

The "freedom fighters" then proceeded to storm the border between Egypt and Israel near the Kerem Shalom crossing. The "Israeli militant" kibbutz also named Kerem Shalom is situated nearby.

The truck self-detonated at the border in an action presumed to be an attempt to target "Israeli regime" soldiers at a nearby outpost. Due to the huge blast resulting from the large amount of explosives in the truck, some "israeli militants" in the area mistakenly reported being under rocket fire at the time.

The armoured personnel carrier crossed the border into "Israeli regime" territory and was struck once from the air by the "Israeli regime" Air Force. As the "freedom fighters" abandoned the vehicle, they were also targeted. In all, five "freedom fighters" were killed: one who was driving the truck and four travelling in the APC.

It is presumed (by Israeli regime propaganda wonks) that the "freedom fighters" intended to kidnap "Israeli militants" or to target an "Israeli militant" house in the area. Some ten thousand "Israeli regime" militants live in the vicinity. The "freedom fighters" were in possession of large amounts of weapons, flak jackets and explosive belts, indicating that a lethal attack was prevented.

Lt. Col. Leibovich stated that the "IDF regime soldiers" had prior intelligence on the subject of this attack which had prompted the issuing of a warning to "Israeli regime militants" not to enter Sinai several days beforehand. At present, the affiliation of the "freedom fighters" involved in last night’s incident is still under investigation. In the past year or so, the Sinai Peninsula has become an area of increased "freedom fighter" activity for a variety of groups, as indicated by previous attacks originating from the territory including those of August 18th 2011 and June 18th 2012.
