The purpose of 9\/11 was to launch under the guise of a \u201cwar on terror\u201d the wars that the American neoconservatives had called for in their publications and that General Wesley Clark told us about against Israel\u2019s enemies in the Middle East.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>The purpose of Washington\u2019s \u201cwar on terror\u201d was to destroy Hezbollah\u2019s suppliers\u2013Iraq, Syria and Iran.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Israel and the neoconservatives want these three countries destroyed because they supply Hezbollah with money and weapons that permits Hezbollah to successfully repeal Israel\u2019s attempts to occupy southern Lebanon.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Israel needs the water resources in southern Lebanon.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>With the Iraq, Syrian, and Iranian regimes destroyed, avenues are opened to Greater Israel.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, there was never a \u201cwar on terror.\u201d<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>There was a war devised by US neocons against Israel\u2019s opponents.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>And that is precisely what the war on Hamas is about.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>It is impossible to breach the Israeli security barrier without setting off alarms.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>The plot called for the barrier to be stood down.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>What most likely happened is this:<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Israeli agents who have infiltrated Hamas were instructed to sell Hamas on the attack by promising the ability to disable the barrier and surprise the Israelis.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Netanyahu and the neocons sacrificed Israeli lives for the outrage about Israeli deaths, rapes, and Israeli babies with cut off heads.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>This would gain Israel support for destroying the remnants of Palestine and incorporating all of Palestine into Israel, thus ending any prospect of a two-stare solution and simultaneously settling Netanyahu\u2019s legal and political problems by making him a hero who consolidated Palestine under Israel.<\/p>\n<p>But the plot has wider aims, which were revealed by the almost instant appearance on the scene of US aircraft carrier task forces, the 101st Airborne Division followed by US Marines and Special Forces.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Israel, of course, does not need these American forces in order to destroy Gaza.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Pundits, reflecting either a lack of imagination or serving a disinformation function, have rationalized the presence of the US forces as a warning and protective buffer between Israel and Hezbollah\/Iran.<\/p>\n<p>Think about this rationale.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>If Netanyahu understood that the plot might bring Iran\/Hezbollah and even Syria and Iraqi volunteers down on Israel\u2019s head, would he have sponsored a plot that initiated war with Hamas?<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>The answer is not unless he and the US neoconservatives want to bring Iran\/Hezbollah down on Israel\u2019s head.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>And they do, which is why the US forces are in the area.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>A Hezbollah attack on Israel gives the neocons, who control the US State and Defense Departments and National Security Council the excuse they need to finish the real purpose of the \u201cwar on terror\u201d\u2013 to destroy Syria and Iran.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Iraq was taken out, but Syria and Iran remain in Israel\u2019s way.\u00a0<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Will this plot succeed?<\/p>\n<p>The plot is premised on drawing Hezbollah and Iran into the war.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>If they are not drawn in\u2013and Putin is doing his best to prevent them from being drawn in\u2013the US neoconservatives don\u2019t have an excuse to widen the war.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>The neoconservatives would be tempted to go for a false flag attack that would provide an excuse, but it would be risky and not compare to Hezbollah troops pouring into Israel and missiles raining down on Israel from Iran.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>If the neocons use a false flag attack, the result of Putin\u2019s efforts will be to take the initiative, the element of surprise, from Iran\/Hezbollah and to give the initiative to the neoconservatives.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Thus Putin\u2019s efforts to contain the conflict would turn out to be counterproductive.<\/p>\n<p>The Israeli-Hamas conflict is running into trouble with the US Democrats.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Their \u201cdiversity-multicultural-open border\u201d policy has brought Muslims into the US and into the Democrat Party and members of Congress.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Someone is getting through the neocon barrier around Biden as we can see from Biden\u2019s efforts to dampen down the conflict, delay Israel\u2019s invasion of Gaza, and warn Israel away from repeating Hamas\u2019 atrocities.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>If Biden succeeds in restraining Netanyahu and Putin succeeds in restraining Iran\/Hezbollah, the plot will have to settle for second best.<\/p>\n<p>What would second best be.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>It would be<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>bombing the Gazans out of Gaza into the Sinai Dessert into tent cities.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Israelis are already talking about this.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>In other words, the Gazans who survive would become refugees outside of Gaza.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>That would only leave a few isolated Palestinian villages in the West Bank, from which the remaining Palestinians would be driven out by the Israeli settlers.<\/p>\n<p>So it is possible for Israel to destroy Gaza without invading, which, as matters stand, is the trigger for Iran\/Hezbollah\u2019s entry into the conflict. What we don\u2019t know is whether Putin can keep Iran\/Hezbollah restrained if the consequence is the demise of Gaza and all hope for Palestinians.<\/p>\n<p>We also don\u2019t know if Biden and the Democrats can prevent the Republicans, who are now aligned with the neoconservatives in behalf of Israel, from egging on the war.\u00a0<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Many<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Republicans, such as House Speaker Mike Johnson,<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>are evangelicals who worship Israel more than God.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Netanyahu and American Evangelicals are invoking Biblical prophecies to stir Israelis and Americans into eschatological insanity.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Biden is discredited, and polls show that his public support is too low to permit his reelection.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Trump was recently described by the Israeli newspaper Haaretz as \u201cthe most pro-Israel President in history.\u201d<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>This leaves us with the question:<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Will Putin\/Biden\u2019s attempts to contain the conflict prevail or will the Republican\/evangelical\/neoconservative\/Netanyahu efforts to widen the conflict prevail?<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>Time will tell.<\/p>\n<p>___<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.paulcraigroberts.org\/2023\/10\/30\/the-israeli-hamas-conflict-is-a-continuation-of-the-9-11-plot\/\">https:\/\/www.paulcraigroberts.org\/2023\/10\/30\/the-israeli-hamas-conflict-is-a-continuation-of-the-9-11-plot\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-193684","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/193684","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=193684"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/193684\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=193684"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=193684"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=193684"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
