Netanyahu's Treachery Revealed: Israel's Global Disgrace

Historically, 2023 will be seen as a pivotal moment in history, as Israel’s year of infamy marking a significant shift in global perception of Israel, its long-standing geopolitical strategies and the world’s awakening to the great 85-year con.

Historians will recognise it as the year that redefined geopolitics, breaking the long-standing influence of Zionism on global affairs. Geopolitically, Israel overextended itself, and social media exposed the true nature of the state's terroristic behaviour.

When Hamas breached Israel’s security forces on October 7, 2023, several respected defence and military experts – the legitimate one’s worthwhile listening to, described it not as a terrorist attack, but as one of the most significant strategic military strikes of the millennium.

It was a perfect strike that military planners worldwide will study in tactical training.

Understanding the history of the Israeli occupation of Palestine and the Palestinian people's plight highlights the complexity of the situation.

For decades, Israel propagated a narrative of victimhood. However, those who knew the truth recognised it as one of the greatest lies ever perpetrated in history. In its current form, Hamas is viewed by those who understand geopolitics properly as a legitimately elected government fighting against the oppression of its people, rather than as a terrorist organisation.

If you accept that "Israel has a right to defend itself," then so too by the same logic, does Hamas and the Palestinian people also have a right to defend themselves. However, the influence of AIPAC, the Israeli Lobby, and the fear of being labelled anti-Semitic or a Nazi have allowed Israel to get away with lies, oppression, subjugation, dehumanisation, and murder.

A crucial question arises: how much of Hamas's military strike involved a degree of fortune, and how much did Benjamin Netanyahu have a role to play in the October 7 Hamas military strike?

A seven-hour delayed counter-response suggests significant involvement, given the reputation of Israel's security apparatus.

Hamas, in its first iteration, was established by Netanyahu and his government to destabilise the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and wreak havoc on the Palestinian people. Funded over time by Netanyahu to serve his nefarious means of control and manipulation, Hamas was the puppet proxy Israel used to facilitate division and conflict between the PLO and Hamas and to run the narrative there was no one for Israel to negotiate with.

Netanyahu's ability to manipulate the world into thinking the oppressor was the victim is astounding. Great scriptwriters couldn’t have dreamt this up.

Suitcases of cash transported between Qatar and Israel to fund Hamas operations further illustrate the intricate web of deceit and manipulation orchestrated by Netanyahu.

By propping up Hamas, Netanyahu created a perpetual enemy, justifying ongoing military actions and the continued subjugation of the Palestinian people. The historical re-evaluation of 2023 will likely highlight Benjamin Netanyahu's complex and complicit role in supporting Hamas as part of a broader strategy to undermine Palestinian unity and perpetuate the cycle of violence and oppression.

These narratives challenge long-held perceptions of victimhood and expose the darker machinations behind Israel's policies towards the Palestinian territories.

To understand the roots of this deception, people need to look back to the early 1980s when Israel first began its covert support of Islamic groups in Gaza as a counterbalance to the secular nationalist PLO.

This strategy aimed to create internal strife within Palestinian society, weakening their collective resistance to Israeli occupation.

In 1987, when Hamas was founded during the First Intifada, it received tacit support from Israel. Documents and testimonies from former Israeli officials reveal that Israel viewed Hamas as a useful tool to divide and conquer the Palestinian resistance. The divide-and-rule tactic allowed Israel to present itself as a necessary force for stability in the region.

During the 1990s, as Netanyahu rose to power, his government’s indirect support for Hamas continued. Financial and logistical support was funnelled through various channels, including intermediaries in Qatar.

These efforts aimed to ensure that Hamas remained a potent force to counter the influence of the PLO and later the Palestinian Authority (PA), which had started to gain international legitimacy.

Netanyahu’s government also exploited Hamas’s violent resistance to justify harsh military responses and garner international sympathy. Every rocket fired from Gaza and every attack claimed by Hamas was used as a pretext for furthering Israel’s military and settlement activities in the occupied territories. The cyclical violence served to perpetuate the image of Israel as a besieged nation, defending itself against relentless aggression.

Construction of the separation barrier in the early 2000s, often justified as a security measure against Hamas attacks, further entrenched the apartheid environment in the West Bank. Netanyahu’s policies ensured the Palestinian territories remained fragmented, poor, and politically unstable.

Internationally, Netanyahu’s spin was masterful. He leveraged global fears of terrorism post-9/11 to equate Hamas with groups like Al-Qaeda and later ISIS, despite significant ideological and operational differences.

His narrative allowed him to secure unwavering support from Western allies, particularly the United States.

Netanyahu’s alignment with far right and nationalist parties globally also played a crucial role in maintaining this support. By framing the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as a frontline in the global war on terror, he ensured that criticism of Israel’s actions could be easily dismissed as anti-Semitic or supportive of terrorism.

As social media began to erode the traditional gatekeeping of information, the cracks in this carefully constructed narrative started to show. Activists, journalists, and global community began to document and share the realities of life under occupation, challenging the mainstream portrayal of Israel as the perennial victim.

The events of October 7, 2023, and subsequent revelations about Netanyahu’s long-term strategy with Hamas have forced a reckoning. The delayed Israeli response to the Hamas breach raised significant questions about the efficiency and intent of Israel’s security apparatus.

It caused millions globally to begin to suspect the delay was not a failure but a deliberate act to allow the situation to escalate, providing a pretext for a massive military response.

Since then, investigations have revealed Netanyahu’s government had indeed maintained covert lines of communication with Hamas leaders, ostensibly to manage the level of violence and maintain a controlled state of conflict.

The manipulation of violence served Netanyahu’s broader strategic objectives of keeping the Palestinian territories divided and maintaining a perpetual state of emergency that justified his hardline policies.

Awakening to the realisation that Netanyahu’s policies may have been driven by a long-term plan to weaken Palestinian society and perpetuate the occupation has sparked global outrage. Calls for a re-evaluation of Israel’s actions and accountability for Netanyahu have grown louder, challenging the impunity that Israeli leaders have historically enjoyed.

The legacy of 2023 is not only the exposure of Netanyahu’s machinations but a turning point in the global understanding of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, heralding a new era of accountability and justice, where the true nature of oppression is recognised, and the rights of the Palestinian people are upheld with Israel not only becoming a pariah state but isolated from the rest of the world and eventually ceasing to exist as it now does.
