They Let it
Happen?
Their Objective
is
"to Wipe Gaza
Off the Map"...?
�
Crimes Against
Humanity - It's Genocide, an Absolute Slaughter
�
[Israel's military] said
it would soon begin launching a widespread offensive in northern
Gaza - a warning that comes about a day after Israel ordered roughly
a million civilians to flee the area.
�
The
sealed-off territory ruled by Hamas was in turmoil on Saturday amid
the sweeping evacuation order that covered about half of Gaza's
population.
�
Gaza also faces a growing water crisis
as Palestinians were
struggling to evacuate northern Gaza by foot, car and donkey
cart.
�
Humanitarian groups said the evacuees
had nowhere to go.
�
The other way of leaving Gaza, into
Egypt, appeared to be sealed as well, amid confusion over whether
the neighboring country would allow anyone to exit Gaza.
�
An offensive even
more powerful than Israel's previous shelling of Gaza appeared
imminent.
"We are going to attack Gaza
City very broadly soon," Israel's chief military spokesman, Rear
Adm. Daniel Hagari, said in a
nationally broadcast address,
without giving a timetable for the attack.

Early Saturday October 7, 2023,
Hamas�launched "Operation Al-Aqsa Storm" led by Hamas' Military
Chief�Mohammed Deif.�
�
On that same day,�Netanyahu
confirmed a so-called "State
of Readiness For War".
Military
operations are invariably planned well in advance
(see�Netanyahu's�January 2023 statement below).�
�
�
�
�
Was "Operation Al-Aqsa Storm" a
"surprise attack"...?
�
U.S. intelligence
say they�weren't aware of an impending Hamas attack.�
"One would
have to be
almost hopelessly na�ve to buy the corporate state media
line that the Hamas invasion was an Israeli 'intelligence
failure'.�
�
Mossad is
one of, if not the, most powerful intelligence agencies on
the planet."
Did Netanyahu
and his vast military and intelligence apparatus (Mossad et al)
have foreknowledge of the Hamas attack�which has resulted in
countless deaths of Israelis and Palestinians?
�
Was a
carefully formulated Israeli plan to wage
an all out war against
Palestinians�envisaged
prior to the�launching by Hamas of "Operation Al-Aqsa
Storm"?
This was not a
failure of Israeli Intelligence, as conveyed by the media.
�
Quite the
opposite...!
�
Evidence and
testimonies suggest that the
Netanyahu government had foreknowledge of the actions of
Hamas which�have resulted in
hundreds of Israeli and Palestinian deaths.
�
And "They Let it Happen"...:
"Hamas fired
between 2-5 thousand rockets at Israel and hundreds of Israeli
are dead, while dozens of Israelis were captured as prisoners of
war.
�
In the ensuing
air response by Israel, hundreds of Palestinians were killed in
Gaza."
Stephen Sahiounie
�
Following the Al Aqsa Storm Operation on October 7,
Israel's defence minister�described Palestinians as
"human animals" and vowed to "act accordingly," as
fighter jets unleashed a massive bombing of the Gaza
Strip home of�2.3 million Palestinians�"
Middle East Eye
A�complete
blockade on the Gaza Strip�was initiated on
October 9, 2023 consisting in blocking and obstructing
the importation of food, water, fuel, and essential
commodities to 2.3 Million Palestinians.
�
It's
an outright crime against humanity. It's genocide...
�
It is worth noting, that
Netanyahu's military actions are not targeting HAMAS,
quite the opposite:
he is targeting 2.3
million innocent Palestinian civilians, in blatant
violation of�the
Four Basic Principles of The Law of Armed Conflict (LOAC):�
"...respect for and protection of
the civilian
population and civilian objects
[schools, hospitals and residential areas], the
Parties to the conflict shall at all times
distinguish between the civilian population and
combatants and between civilian objects and
military objectives and accordingly shall direct
their operations only against military
objectives."
[Additional Protocol 1, Article 48]
Ironically, according to
Scott Ritter, Hamas' has acquired U.S.
weapons in Ukraine...!
�
�
�
�
This was not a "surprise attack"
�
Was
the Hamas Attack a
"False Flag"?�
"I served in
the IDF 25 years ago, in the intelligence forces.
There's no way Israel did not
know of what's coming.
�
A
cat moving alongside the fence is triggering all forces.
So this...??
�
What
happened to the "strongest army in the world"?
�
How come
border crossings were wide open?
Something is
VERY WRONG HERE, something is very strange, this chain of events
is very unusual and not typical for the Israeli defense system.
�
To me this surprise attack
seems like a planned operation...
On all fronts...
If I was a
conspiracy theorist I would say that this feels like
the work of
the Deep State.
�
It feels like the people of Israel and the people of Palestine
have been sold, once again,
to the higher
Powers that Be.

Statement by�Efrat
Fenigson,

Ironically,
the media (NBC) is now contending
that the "Hamas
attack bears hallmarks of 'Iranian' involvement".

History - The Relationship between Mossad and Hamas
What is the
relationship between Mossad and Hamas?
�
Is Hamas an
"intelligence asset"?�
There is a long
history.�
�
Hamas (Harakat
al-Muqawama al-Islamiyya - Islamic Resistance Movement), was
founded in 1987 by Sheik
Ahmed Yassin.
�
It was supported
at the outset by Israeli intelligence as a means to weaken the
Palestinian Authority:
"Thanks to
Mossad, (Israel's 'Institute for Intelligence and Special
Tasks'), Hamas was allowed to reinforce its presence in the
occupied territories.
�
Meanwhile,
Arafat's Fatah Movement for National Liberation as well as
the Palestinian Left were subjected to the most brutal
form of repression and intimidation.
�
Let us not forget that it was Israel, which in fact created
Hamas.
�
According to
Zeev Sternell, historian at the Hebrew
University of Jerusalem,
"Israel thought that it was
a smart ploy to push the Islamists against the Palestinian
Liberation Organization (PLO)".
L'Humanit�
translated from French
The
links of Hamas to Mossad and US intelligence
have been acknowledged by�Rep.
Ron Paul in a statement to the US
Congress:�
"Hamas Was Started by Israel"?
�
"You know
Hamas, if you look at the history, you'll find out that
Hamas was encouraged and really
started by Israel because they wanted Hamas to
counteract Yasser Arafat�
Rep.�Ron
Paul
2011
What this
statement entails is that Hamas is and remains,
"an�intelligence asset", namely "an�'asset' to intelligence
agencies".
See also the
WSJ
(January�24, 2009) "How
Israel helped to Spawn Hamas".�
Instead of
trying to curb Gaza's Islamists from the outset, says Mr.
Cohen, Israel for years tolerated and, in some cases,
encouraged them as a
counterweight to the secular nationalists of the Palestine
Liberation Organization and its dominant faction,
Yasser Arafat's Fatah.�
�
�
�
�
�
The Hamas Partnership is confirmed by
Netanyahu - "The Cat is Out of the Bag"
"Anyone who wants to thwart the establishment of a Palestinian
state has to support bolstering
Hamas and transferring money to Hamas," he [Netanyahu]
told a meeting of his Likud party's Knesset members in March
2019.
�
"This is part of our strategy - to isolate the Palestinians in
Gaza from the Palestinians in the West Bank."
October 9, 2023
Does this
statement not suggest that Netanyahu and his military-intelligence
outfit are responsible for the killings of innocent Israeli
civilians?�
�
�
�
�
The Dangers of Military Escalation?
�
Let us be under no
illusions, this "false flag" operation is a complex
military-intelligence undertaking, carefully planned over several
years, in liaison and coordination with US intelligence, the
Pentagon and NATO.�
�
In turn, this
action against Palestine is already conducive to a process of
military escalation which potentially could engulf a large part of
Middle East.
�
Israel is a de facto member
NATO (with a special status) since
2004, involving active military and intelligence coordination as
well as
consultations pertaining to the
occupied territories.
�
Military
cooperation with both the Pentagon and NATO is viewed
by Israel's Defence Force (IDF)
as a means to,
"enhance Israel's deterrence
capability regarding potential enemies threatening it, mainly
Iran and Syria."
The premise of
NATO-Israel military cooperation is that "Israel is under attack"...
Does Israel's
agreement with the Atlantic Alliance "obligate" NATO
"to come to the rescue of
Israel" under the doctrine of "collective security"
(Article 5 of the Washington treaty)?
In recent
developments, U.S. military deployments in the Middle East are
ongoing allegedly to avoid escalation.
�
According to
NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg:
There is always the risk that nations and/or organizations
hostile to Israel will try to take advantage.
�
And that
includes, for instance, organizations like Hezbollah or a
country like Iran. So this is a message to countries and
organizations hostile to Israel that they should not try to
utilize the situation.
�
And
the United States have
deployed, or has deployed more military forces in the region,
not least to deter any escalation or prevent any escalation of
the situation.

Netanyahu's "New Stage" of "The Long
War" against Palestine
�
Netanyahu's stated
objective, which constitutes
a new stage
in the 75 year old war (since
Nakba, 1948)�against the people of
Palestine is no longer predicated on "Apartheid" or "Separation".�
�
This new stage -
which is also directed against
Israelis who want peace
- consists�in
"total�appropriation" as well as
the outright exclusion of the
Palestinian�people from their homeland:
"These are the
basic lines of the national government headed by me [Netanyahu]:
The
Jewish people have an exclusive and unquestionable right to
all areas of the Land of Israel.
The government
will promote and develop settlement in all parts of the Land of
Israel - in the Galilee, the Negev, the Golan, Judea and
Samaria."
(Netanyahu�January
2023)
We
bring to the attention of the�incisive below analysis of
Dr. Philip Giraldi�pointing
to the likelihood of a
"False Flag":

Is
the Gaza-Israel Fighting "A False Flag"?
They Let it Happen? - Their Objective Is "to Wipe Gaza Off
the Map"?

�
Am I the only one who read
about a speech given by Netanyahu or someone in his cabinet
about a week ago in which he/they in passing referred to a "developing
security situation" which rather suggests (to me)
that they might have known about developments in Gaza and
chose to let it happen so
they can wipe Gaza off the map in retaliation and,
possibly relying on the US pledge to have Israel's "back,"
then implicating Iran and attacking that country?
�
I cannot
find a link to it, but have a fairly strong recollection of
what I read as I thought at the time it would serve as a
pretext for another massacre of Palestinians.
�
As a former intelligence
officer,
I find it impossible to
believe that Israel did not have multiple informants inside
Gaza as well as electronic listening devices all along the
border wall which would have picked up movements of groups
and vehicles.
�
In other
words,
the
whole thing might be a tissue of lies as is often
the case...
And as is also ALWAYS the case
Joe Biden
is preparing to send some billions
of dollars to poor little Israel
to pay for "defending" itself...
