#Netanyahu is directly responsible for the October 7 attack. Blinded by his seemingly cozy relationship with #Putin and his wishful thinking, Netanyahu missed preparations for the attack by the #GRU and #Wagner Group, which used #Hamas as the COVER.
His security services contracted this blindness from him.
My theory of the motivation for this attack is that the GRU was enraged by the use of the Russia as the COVER in the Operation Trump of 2016 and by the downing of the #AlexandrovEnsemble plane (sent to celebrate their “victory” in Syria), which they blamed on the Mossad.

These hypotheses deserve a careful investigation!

October 7 Attack is marked by the two features, among the others, which point to its origins:
1. Its condescending and deadly nature as the Anti-Gay pogrom, with musical Supernova theme: “These drugs-crazed faggots (Insult to the Israeli and Western Security Services) do not appreciate the good (iconic Russian folk) music – a hint to and the revenge for the downing of the Alexandrov Ensemble plane in December of 2016, and
2. Its masterful use of the COVER in the major political – military operation, in this particular case the use of the Hamas as the cover for the Wagner Group, who trained them, and the GRU, the Russian Military Intelligence: “That’s how you use a cover!” This is the hint and the revenge for use of “Russia, Russia, Russia” cover for the Mossad’s (under Yossi Cohen) Operation Trump 2016.
All in all, it looks like the complex, meticulously planned and designed Revenge Operation by the GRU on Putin’s behalf or by Putin’s private or personal Intelligence – Special Operations Service.

After breaking a two-month ceasefire, Israel launched an assault on Gaza on Tuesday, killing more than 400 people in pre-dawn strikes. The death toll continues to climb as airstrikes persist, and Israel pushes forward with a ground invasion. At least 200 children have been killed in recent attacks, according to UNICEF.
The assault — the deadliest in over a year — came after Donald Trump gave Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu the green light to break the ceasefire. Netanyahu has warned, “This is only the beginning.”
Author Pankaj Mishra argues Israel operates within a “culture of impunity,” emboldened by global far-right movements that admire Israel’s “brazen cruelty.”
This week on The Intercept Briefing, reporter Jonah Valdez speaks to Mishra about his latest book, “The World After Gaza,” which examines how the war on Gaza isn’t just another conflict — it’s a turning point reshaping global politics, exposing institutional failures, and forcing a reckoning over who sets the rules on the world stage.
“Some of the worst people in the world today are drawn to Israel,” Mishra says. “Not because they believe in Zionism, not because they are protective of Jewish population of Israel, but because Israel again represents to them — embodies this opportunity to take whatever you can and hold on to it using extreme violence if necessary.”
