Don’t bring these dumb analogies to this conflict. While Israel definitely acts towards Palestine the way Russia acts towards its former colonies, Hamas itself acts like Russian backed “people’s republic”.

This will lead to radicalization of Israel’s politics. The date was chosen to have the maximum chance of shutting down any positive resolution around Palestine.

In other words, this is not an attempt to free Palestine, it’s an attempt to set the world on fire.

I have a hard time believing that the Israeli intelligence community didn't see this coming. Mossad created the fucking Stuxned and can't even see bunch of militants coming to their borders. The only person benefitting from this is Netanyahu as he may use this war as an excuse to further consolidate his power.
