    this makes me suspect even more it has been incited by russia as a distraction. i mean the situation was messed up in israel/palestine for like 80 years, but suddenly when russia has problems invading a country, it escalates. coincidence? i doubt it.

      I mean Iran is Russia’s link to this shit, and Iran has been distancing the fuck out of their relationship with Hamas since the attack, which implies Hamas jumped the gun, which implies Iran doesn’t have as much control over them as they’d like, which means Russia would have even less ability to direct the action.

      Mmm. Did Russia even need to incite it, or just toss gasoline on the flames that are already burning?

      Suddenly? War had been going for quite some time at the moment of Hamas attack.
