This was all scripted, Mossad is puppeteering both sides, per usual, and we're so far into this clown world that we cannot even catch a bus back to any sense of normality. Case in point, Netanyahu isn't even bothering to pretend that he is surprised or angry at this turn of events. In fact, he's smiling at the thought of the invasion:

But even taking the fact that this invasion is a charade into account: when you take everything from a people and leave them with nothing to lose, no one should be surprised when they react as if they have nothing to lose.

Excellent article. The reason Israel ignored all the warnings provided stems from the simple fact that it wants complete what it started with its theft of all Palestine from the Palestinian people. This started in 1947/1948, with the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians from their homes in the Nakba. Furthermore, Israel seeks to complete its genocidal policy against Palestinians. There, hence the statements of "Israel's 9/11."

Everyone forgets that Israel was created to assuage European - Western "guilt" for the Genocidal Policies conducted by the Nazis (with Western Allied assistance - silence) against Jews in Europe. They have sought to seek "redemption" for the their own complacency by now allowing the genocide against the Palestinian people.

There are too many who view Palestinians as "sub human"... This had been the mentality of numerous genocides around the world since 1945... Pakistan did the same in then East Pakistan - present Bangladesh in 1971, murdering over 3 million people in Bangladesh in 9 months, and raping over 200,000 women in the same time period. The same with the Western sponsored genocides in Africa, Central and South America, and in Asia. One only has to read the book "The Jakarta Method" to note that the USA helped the dictator of Indonesia murder over 1 million people...

The point being that the United States of America and its Western Allies will stand by and cheer as Israel murders more Palestinians who only want freedom from oppression and genocide being doled out by Israel.

I have never hear/read such lies as the defenders of Israel now present as fact. It is made to seem that tiny Gaza, the open air prison in which the occupants cannot come and go freely, have never been in control of water or electricity needs, and now are under a siege where these and even food are cut off entirely, are marginalizing Israeli lives and pose an existential risk to them: up is down and black is white.

This attack against Palestinians is a WAR CRIME. Period. So is the previous 75 years of apartheid and terrorist attacks against Palestinians.

THE TRUE FACE OF ZIONISTS. This “9/11” has all the makings of the 9/11. The same playbook, the same players, just across the pond and a sea.

How ironic. The Israeli Defense Minister saying Palestinians are human animals. It's what Hitler said about the Jews when he talked about the final solution to the Jewish problem. This is why I refer to Zionists as Zio-Nazis.

They don't see the irony in calling it 9/11, once you know what 9/11 was.

In a sense, yes it is, but not for the reasons they think or would like others to think.

Only a simp can watch the footage now and not see that the towers were imploded.

I suspect at some point in the future only a simp will believe that Israel was surprised by the attack and not somehow complicit.

Hamas is Zionism’s greatest creation. A brilliant whipping boy to justify colonial land theft and genocide.

Caitlin, we join you in empathy for the Palestinian people, while feeling sad for all the bloodshed. Palestinians have a right to resist Israel's brutal occupation and oppression. They are subjected to living in a cage, in an open-air prison, of house demolitions and constant harassment under a merciless siege - two million people pushed into 140 square miles. In the West Bank settler mobs run amok evicting, burning villages, killing.

The dispossessed have the right to resist and rebel.

Collective punishment is a war crime. Israel is throttling Gaza with a blockade cutting off water, electricity and food. Can you imagine any other country doing this and getting away with it!? Instead of condemning, we have the obscenity of the US/EU/Nato, painting their iconic buildings with the Israeli flag. Israel is responsible but those who are its enablers are equally culpable.

Well excuse me Israel. I thought there already WAS a total siege of Gaza. After all they're blockaded by land on both side and by sea, by Israel and they've been short of food, water, fuel, medical supplies etc for years.

Courtesy of Gods' chosen people. Maybe that's why so many people have chosen another God or preferably, none at all.

"A nation that cannot exist without nonstop war is not a nation at all — it’s an ongoing military operation."

Yep. How else would you give the military-industrial complex enough business, right? Endless wars R us!

"A nation that can’t exist without nonstop war is like a house that can’t stand without nonstop construction."

You should check out the Winchester Mystery House... Its owner couldn't stop building onto it, because she was afraid of the ghosts of all the people killed with the Winchester rifles made by her late husband's firearms company. The US is the same... It can't stop warring because the ghosts will come back to haunt us, so we must keep building more hate and division and keep building and building...
