Mass-casualty producing events create “reptilian” sparks of collective outrage that nullify critical thinking.
Criminal military-intelligence operatives fabricate and enable such catastrophes, with a view to creating such outrage, together with false-attribution of blame, to wage pre-planned wars and genocides.
Fabricated mass-casualty producing events satisfy the Helgelian dialectic of Problem Reaction Solution.
This appears to be the case with the October 7 “Operation Al-Aqsa Storm”. Zionist/Western operatives seeking to “wipe Gaza off the map” first needed to engineer global outrage by creating the conditions for a mass-casualty producing event, such as the one on October 7 2023. This catastrophe was in turn used as a pretext for the current Western/Zionist perpetrated genocide happening now in the West Bank and in Gaza.
Notwithstanding the fact, as explained by UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese, that
“Israel can not claim self-defense against a threat that emanates from the territory it occupies — from a territory that is kept under belligerent occupation,” (1) many censored facts about the October 7 castastrophe strongly suggest Zionist implication with a view to realizing “Option C” , a diabolical plan to ethnically cleanse Palestine. Prof. Michel Chossudovsky explains that
“The ultimate objective is not only to exclude Palestinians from their homeland, it consists in confiscating the multi-billion dollar Gaza offshore Natural Gas reserves, namely those pertaining to the BG (BG Group) in 1999, as well the Levant discoveries of 2013.” (2)
Consider the following largely-censored facts.
First, Israeli media has admitted that a significant number of Israeli citizens were killed by Israeli forces on that fateful day — by Apache helicopters firing missiles and machine guns, and by IDF tanks. The logic of the Hannibal Directive as described by Max Blumenthal points to apparent Israeli military decisions to kill both hostages and hostage-takers alike with a view to foiling hostage-taking operations. In fact, released hostages have testified that they were more fearful of their IDF “rescuers” than of their captors.
Second, large contingents of Israeli ground forces, fully armed and equipped, were following apparent “stand down” orders, near the perimeter of the military operation. Video commentators suggest a lack of leadership, but more likely the confusion and apparent inaction were by design. Importantly, “compartmentalization, plausible deniability and stacked purposes” are emblematic of successful false flag operations. Very few of the actors involved have a clear overall picture of the scope and scale of the entire operation.
Finally, the apparent Israeli “security lapses” which enabled the entire operation seem contrived. Manlio Dinucci poses a question to which nobody seems to have an adequate answer: “How is it possible that Mossad, considered one of the most efficient Secret Services in the world, did not realize that Hamas was preparing its attack?” (3).
Certainly, nothing justifies the current genocide that Israel is now committing against Palestinians. But accumulating evidence about the circumstances of the October 7 “precipitating event” make the Israeli crimes even more odious, more vile.

The Globalization of War: America’s “Long War” against Humanity
Michel Chossudovsky
The “globalization of war” is a hegemonic project. Major military and covert intelligence operations are being undertaken simultaneously in the Middle East, Eastern Europe, sub-Saharan Africa, Central Asia and the Far East. The U.S. military agenda combines both major theater operations as well as covert actions geared towards destabilizing sovereign states.
