Some claim IDF used Hamas as a proxy for Oct 7 (Public Board)
which accounts for the security lapses and non recognition of the setup for the attack.
The idea being to provide acceleration and pretext for a war. And that to back up one step, Hamas was reacting to Israel putting a "red heifer" in place in order to hasten the Messiah.
IOW Bibi and his party want a sci fi type acceleration of the "End Times" and tribulation.
I'm ready to believe about anything about both sides.
I enjoy apocalyptic sci-fi. I say keep it in videos and movies.
