1. Thank you for this, TC

2. For thems of us that don't want to wander into the musky world:

Today, the entire world saw horrifying videos from Israel. Terrorists humiliate women and men, detain even the elderly, and show no mercy.

In the face of such a terrorist strike, everyone who values life must stand in solidarity.

We in Ukraine have a special feeling about what has happened. Thousands of rockets in the Israeli sky... People killed just on the streets... Civilian cars shot through... Detainees being humiliated…

Our position is crystal clear: anyone who causes terror and death anywhere on the planet must be held accountable.

Today’s terrorist attack on Israel was well-planned, and the entire world knows which sponsors of terrorism could have endorsed and enabled its organization.

Israel has the full right to defend itself against terror. As any other state. And it’s critical that the whole world responds to terror in a unified and principled manner.

5. My own conspiracy theory...

I think this was planned for this specific date (Yom Kippur War and another Jewish holiday, Shemini Atzeret), as well recent other events regarding Iran. Is Iran behind all this? Partially, as a proxy. In my "theory", I believe this is the work of Russia. The war is going VERY poorly for them, and the longer it goes, the more of the populace they lose. I will not be surprised if attacks from Syria come before attacks from Lebanon, but it is a 50/50 bet at this point. If it does come out this is the work of Russia behind-the-scenes, then there could be a major upheaval in the region, as well as the War against Ukraine.

38 weeks of protests against Nethenyahu's government, and now this, a surpsie attack?! Some keep invoking the Yom Kippur War because of the date and the situation; well, then this might FINALLY dislodge that shitstain from power!

7. Weapons from the United States shipped to Israel don't go to Ukraine.

That’s why Putin stuck his thumb into this pie.

8. Great point.

9. And money to Israel

Takes away from money to Ukraine.

10. It's not a conspiracy theory if it's historically true. Such attacks happen

exactly on Jewish holidays. My hopes are with Israel, that its allies help it win, and that any upheaval that occurs comes to the attackers themselves.

My conspiracy theory would be that Hamas is working for Netanyahu to make sure he is reelected for the next term.

14. Spot

On.

15. True, but since I have no proof, I am going with what seems most likely.

And, since we are giving advice to one another, I wouldn't go with conspiracy theories that certain hateful elements will enjoy without posting the sarcasm tag.
