THE DEEP STATE’S LAST STAND? (UPDATED)

The ongoing, seemingly unstoppable, genocide being committed by the state of Israel in Gaza has thrust a dagger of evil into the heart of geopolitical relations worldwide. 2023 did not start well but it is going to end in a much worse state primarily through Israel’s action. The outcome for 2024 is uncertain, particularly in the west, and there is reason to be fearful (as I wrote in the newsletter of 30 October 2023 - “The Deep State’s Last Stand?”) - very fearful.

The attack on “civilians” in southern Israel on 7^th October, I suggested, as many did, was a false flag designed to justified the attack on Gaza. More and more evidence of this is leaking out and it is now well established that Israeli forces were responsible for, at least, some of the murders of Israeli citizens on that day. The full picture is not yet clear but what is certain is that the events of the 7^th are palling into insignificance compared to the Israeli atrocities now continuing. They are less and less mentioned

According to expert commentator and former US marine and UN weapons inspector, Scott Ritter, the Israeli army invading Gaza is no match for the Hamas fighters. Young Israeli conscripts are being blown to pieces in their heavily armed tanks as Hamas take advantage of their mobility, excellent weaponry and knowledge of a devastated terrain. And Hamas are motivated whereas many Israeli soldiers just want to go home. Some have come out openly and said that they did not sign up to be murderers of innocent civilians. I am sure they did not, but the toll is now over 15,000 Palestinians with half of them children.

Because the ground invasion is failing, Israel is resorting to air attacks on soft targets, like hospitals and schools, for that is the only way they can continue the fight. Whatever their original intention, the plan now is clearly to eliminate all Palestinians in Gaza, whether by killing them or expelling them. Egypt has said it cannot accommodate thousands of refugees and so the former option is the most likely. It is all the same to the Netanyahu and his cabinet. The video of uncomfortable-looking Israeli children singing about a land purified of non-Israelis is a chilling statement of government intent.
