False Flags and The Force of Destiny: Israel’s Hamas War and What May Soon Follow

Oct 7 just doesn’t make sense. Until, one considers that the false flag provided cover to access the massive and disputed oil-and-gas reserves sitting just 20 miles offshore in the Mediterranean.

“While busy leveling Gaza, on Oct. 29, Israel found time to announce that it awarded 12 licenses for exploring additional offshore natural gas fields to six companies, including British Petroleum and Italian energy giant Eni. Palestinians called this theft. Was this the purpose of an October 7 false flag?”

“The total oil and gas reserves were valued at a staggering $524 billion in 2019. But Israel does not have sole legal entitlement to the $524 billion, according to a UN report published in the same year. Not only is some of the $524 billion sourced from within the Occupied Territory of Palestine, much of the rest sits outside national borders in the deep sea, and thus should be shared with all relevant parties. The report questions the national right to these resources given they took millions of years to form–and that Palestinians occupied the whole territory until Israel’s recent formal creation.”

Many people have suggested that the October 7 Gaza-Israel massacre was a false flag, a self-inflicted wound to advance a greater cause.

Israel’s Gaza defense is not a wall at all, but a sophisticated and complex set of security measures including fencing, concrete walls, watchtowers, and the latest high-tech surveillance.  The cost of just the latter: more than $1 billion. The goal is simple: prevent attacks.

But on October 7, Hamas breached the Iron Wall in some 30 places. The Iron Wall was a massive failure.  That the IDF stood by defies imagination. By way of official Israeli explanation, there was none.  According to the Washington Post, “The Israel Defense Forces declined to respond to questions submitted by The Post for this story, saying that it would answer them “after the war.” The office of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is under pressure to resign because of the security and intelligence failure, also declined to comment.”

It just doesn’t make sense. Until, that is, that one considers that the false flag provided cover to access the massive and disputed oil-and-gas reserves sitting just 20 miles offshore in the Mediterranean.

Back in 1999, British Gas (BG) discovered these vast resources, estimated at 1 trillion cubic feet of natural gas.  Since then, the Palestinian Authority (PA) has sought to develop the resources, by right of the Oslo Accords (1995), the first major treaty between the Palestinians and Israelis.
