25. I think the people who put them up to it certainly did.

Hamas was used. Not that they wouldn’t happily slaughter Jews whenever possible but this particular incident was coordinated by outside sources, most likely Russia via Iran.

Look at who benefitted the most from this. Тяцмр, which ultimately means Putin. Their propaganda machine is the best that there is. Just look at how they’ve gotten everything they’ve wanted in the past ten years or so. Brexit, Piss Wig I, The West divided over Israel and in some cases abandoning them, a bunch of dopes over here blaming President Biden and effectively killing the Democrats’ electoral chances which leads us to Piss Wig II.

Objectively, you have to give them their props. They know how to manipulate people on a mass scale and get them to dance to whatever tune they play.
