Am I the only one suspicious about the timing of this attack? Right on the time Netanyahu is under extreme pressure at home a major war comes out of his ass.
Can't help but notice everybody loses with this war, except him. He's the only one that takes advantage of this situation. Not Israel, not Hamas and sure as hell not the Palestinians.
There's a stench here. Something is not right.
Is this really a win for Netanyahu though? His intelligence branch really fucked up big time. Real winner is probably any far-right groups looking for an opportunity to spout even more nationalistic bullshit, causing even more violence.
I agree. Almost like it was on purpose.
Though his tough guy appearance suffered a setback all he has to do is make the enemy seem greater than he is. "I did the best I could but these Palestinians are treacherous animals, I was too lenient. No more mr. Nice guy".
Result, he has an excuse to go all-in against Palestine and all he has to do his bomb them back into the stone age (which he has the means to). He'll look even tougher and the cherry on top of the cake is he'll use this "war" to silence any and all opposition.
This is too much of a god send to Netanyahu to have been on accident.
The idea that someone benefiting from a catastrophe means they must be involved in it is insane. After 9/11, sales of "Only Time" by Enya went way up. The whole country was in a panic and wanted to listen to soothing music. Since Enya benefited from 9/11, by your logic, she must've been involved.
you: There’s a stench here. Something is not right.
also you: This is too much of a god send to Enya to have been on accident.
I think it's funny how people went from "something doesn't feel right" to "Netanyahu was the mastermind" in less than a second.
Hamas did this of their own volition, I'm not questioning. I'm questioning though, how vulnerable Israel was to this attack and how Mossad never saw this coming.
Your attempts at distancing yourself from your own argument by claiming that you were "just asking questions" does come off a quite disingenous.
I'm sorry if you misinterpreted me. It would help if you read my argument without immediately making assumptions and jumping to your own conclusions.
I wrote exactly what I meant.
