Israel Concedes to Reality?

 It's my personal, unsubstantiated belief that the leak of 5-Eyes intelligence that revealed Israeli plans to bomb areas including Iranian nuclear power stations and what-not was approved at the highest US levels to deter Israel from doing so.

First of all, Hamas came up with the October 7th, 2023 attack all on its own.  Sources that I read for analysis believe that neither Hezbollah, nor Iran were informed about it.  It was an indigenous Palestinian initiative.

Netanyahu however, was warned (apparently) about the upcoming Hamas attack by Eyptian intelligence, Israel's own intelligence agency, and US intelligence.  Netanyahu let it happen.  This was an Israeli decision.  Netanyahu and some of the leading figures in his extremist coalition made the decision to ignore the intelligence and allow the attack to happen.  This was something that the USA was going to have to respond to.  I don't think the USA was in on Netanyahu's plan to allow Hamas to attack.

Zionism is a very powerful element in US politics (as is a callous disregard for human life) and therefore Biden allowed Netanyahu to do his slaughtering of Arabs thing (while making noises for his domestic constituency about how upset he was about it and making bullshit ceasefire proposals) and waited to see what happened.

When you keep in mind that all these people are idiots and monsters, you can start to develop an understanding as to how they might have been thinking.  Maybe, they thought, Netanyahu really can defeat Hamas, and somehow bring Gaza under the authority of the quisling Fatah.  Maybe the puppet monarchies can be made to supervise Gaza?  Maybe Netanyahu can defeat Hezbollah?  And wouldn't that be grand?

Instead, Hamas remains fighting a year later.  The Houthis in Yemen have shut down the shipping traffic in the Red Sea and are bombing Israel's ports (also for over a year), causing Israel's economy to crater.  Hezbollah's missiles have emptied northern Israel and now that the Israeli Child-Killing Force (ICKF) has actually tried to fight them they've been blocked after less than a kilometer into the border and are taking heavy casualities.

Most importantly, Iran's two missile attacks have shown that Israel's advantage of long-range destruction is at an end.  Despite mainstream, pro-zionist propagandistic hacks' assertions to the contrary, Iran's missile attacks have been successful demonstrations of what Iran could do to Israel if seriously provoked.

Netanyahu's cabinet of Jewish nazis, ... needle-dicked racist lunatics, mass-murdering, religious maniacs and corrupt cowards promised massive, savage retaliation after the second Iranian missile strike.

But what happened instead seemed to be like a puff of dust spurting from an aged penis.


Israel is really the last gasp of European imperialism.  First the British, the the USA, wanted to control the region for its oil.  Israel serves the zionists, the imperialist West, and the "End Times" Christians.  For a number of decades Israel enjoyed a qualitative superiority over the other countries in the region.  Look at past Israeli invasions of Lebanon.  But the ICKF's failures against Hamas, Hezbollah show that that advantage has evaporated on the ground.  And Iran's demonstrations show that that advantage has disappeared in long-range warfare as well.

It all speaks to the end of the European (more specifically Anglo-American) hegemony, and the emergence of a multi-polar world order.

Perhaps Israel's weak attack was a morale, public relations exercise.  Or, maybe they're hoping to lull Iran into a false sense of security to get them to lower their guard.  I think it was the former.  But that's just me being an incurable optimist.
