On 7th October 2023 Harakat al-Muqawamah al-Islamiyyah (Hamas) attacked Israel in an operation it called Al-Aqsa Flood. All the evidence suggests that Israeli government, or elements within the Israeli government, allowed Al-Aqsa Flood to proceed. It appears to have been a LIHOP—let it happen on purpose—false flag terrorist attack.

Israeli defences were removed, years of gathered intelligence and surveillance data was ignored, pressing warnings of an imminent attack, from both Israeli security operatives and the public, were dismissed and Israeli civilians and security service personnel were abandoned by their own government. While Hamas has been blamed for all Israeli deaths, it is also evident that an unknown number were caused by Israel's military response to the attack.

In addition, Hamas would not exist in its current form were it not for the support it has received from the Israeli government. In no small measure, the Israeli government created Hamas and has continued to support it.
