By Tommy Acosta —
Sedona, AZ — Death prepares itself for yet another hefty meal of human lives. Poised with a knife and fork of bombs, missiles, and bullets, it tightens its bloody bib around its neck and prepares to feast.
This time the menu consists of thousands of Israelis and Palestinians—men, women, children, and soldiers—that have died and will die in the latest Middle East conflict, which has now evolved into yet another war.
This surprise attack on the people of Israel could be the prompt that will pit not just Israelis and Palestinians against each other, but the superpowers as well in this lethal chess game being played out right now.
One has to wonder why? Why would Hamas attack at this time and in such a savage manner, an attack that’s all but certain to pit the international community against them, cloaking themselves as terrorists rather than fighters seeking an end to decades of occupation by the country they border.
What’s the end game? It surely can’t be just a local issue settled by lobbing a few missiles at each other.
People are calling the attack an “Israeli 9/11,” the most succinct similarity being the massive intelligence failure for both.
Images are being broadcast of the massacre. People are galvanized. Everyone’s rattling their swords.
One can only wonder why Hamas could be so stupid. Couldn’t they see the resulting invasion by the Israelis by having done so?
There’s something bigger afoot. Something the pundits and talking heads are missing.
There’s a big picture here, and we need to see it or be sucked blindly into a global conflagration.
Is this attack by Hamas but a hook to pull in the U.S. to the ground for a close and personal war?
The New York Times reported that Iran was the mastermind. If so, why? What’s the end game here?
The most obvious answer is they want the U.S. to get involved, not only supplying Israel with bombs and missiles but also with boots on the ground.
Add that to the plethora of war machines being given to Ukraine and our reserves will be depleted.
Our newly “woke” military will have to step up, and one has to wonder how much of a taste for war our new recruits would have for it.
And then there is Russia. Iran has been supplying them with all kinds of killing machines. Brothers in arms they are, and could we be facing Russian soldiers on the Mid-East battlefield?
Maybe Iran is trying to bury any chance for peace between Israel and other Arab states through their control of Hamas.
But that too is too obvious.
Could it be China playing a sly game behind the scenes, methodically working to weaken the U.S. while at the same time making us their best customer? God knows how much monetary debt we are presently into them.
Let’s be honest. Our kids can’t read. Half or more are overweight. Nobody wants to join the military anymore. The country is divided. We’re getting weaker every day. And the world knows.
But back to the new war. Astute observers will note the ‘Wag the Dog’ scenarios being played out in the media. It’s like we are being primed for war once again. Remember the Alamo. Remember the Maine. Remember 9/11. It’s déjà vu all over again.
So sad to see yet another front open up for war. It’s just so weird no one saw the attack coming. Not Mossad. Not the CIA. Such a well-coordinated attack.
Are there invisible forces at play where this war is being carefully manicured and orchestrated to bleed even more money into the coffers of those who make things that kill?
The suffering about to be endured by those affected by the war is unimaginable. The people of Gaza have now had their food, water, electricity, and fuel cut off in preparation for the Israeli forces to mount their ground-level counterattack. That’s more than 2 million souls about to be deprived of basic necessities for life.
What sorrow. What misery. What suffering. What stupidity. Hamas or whoever was behind the initial attack on Israel had to know what would happen, launching such a murderous and barbaric attack.
The retaliation will be of such magnitude nothing can be comparable to what is going to happen to the victims of this war in these modern times.

Why did Hamas attack Israel? For multiple obvious reasons beginning with the sad ass shape our country and government are in thanks to the MAGA idiots.
Then there is the obvious wink and nod Dump gave to Ben the Yahoo to become everything Israel was NOT founded upon or for and the obvious poke in the eye the Dump administration gave the Palestinian people by moving our embassy right smack where it would inflame the most anger and hostilities.
Behind the scenes we have and have had Russia, China, Iran, N Korea, the Assad regime and likely Saudi Arabia (who are not our friends nor allies) stirring the shit so as to divert attention, personnel and equipment from the War in Ukraine to fight a Hamas insurgency in Gaza, Lebanon and ultimately Iran.
Our government for some strange ignorant reason is in shutdown vacation mode due to the inability and ignorance of the GOP to govern which in turns ties the hands of our military and any funding that would normally be voted upon and approved to support just this very sort of contingency.
If we lose Israel we lose our only solid footing in the Middle East and the region may go into broader conflict that could ultimately affect US oil prices-oh my stars!
If we lose Ukraine we lose Eastern Europe and possibly see the world’s final conflict-WWIII.
Russia is provoking conflict in Africa and Kosovo to distract from Ukraine. Both places where our forces have sacrificed significant blood sweat and tears over the past 3-4 decades.
The world has been watching our foolish insanity and inability to govern or lead ourselves out of a wet paper bag and now they are done poking the bear and have started using heavy weapons upon us instead.
Is our military up to the task? Highly highly unlikely since we are in between “wars” and our military traditionally goes to absolute hell after every conflict. It’s as if our leadership (military and civilian) goes brain dead after every war by halting training, halting funding for training, halting DARPA funding and research etc. This is when our troops have to run around with broom sticks and shout bang during training exercises rather than conducting live fire or highly simulated battle exercises with blank ammunition but real weapon systems to help prepare our forces for the real thing.
Biden is rushing naval combat power into the region. Deja Vu! We have been here before and the end result was 260 US Marines blown to bits and pieces in Beruit, and 30 American troops were ambushed and killed in Mogadishu all because we rushed our forces into a situation and battlefield that should have been far better analyzed and prepped for than they were.
Israel is a big boy now. We have given them untold trillions in military aid and equipment since 1948. We have permanently based troops in the Sinai peninsula and throughout the region for the sole purpose of protecting Israel and our interests there. The Israeli’s have a highly trained extremely well equipped active military annd reserves as well as an Intelligence Community that is second to none. They take our hand me down tanks and fighter aircraft and modify them so they are highly efficient like they should have been when made for our forces in the first place. But we don’t allow our troops to modify their weapons or equipment.
Ukraine is becoming a big boy but is still in the learning to walk phase of battlefield development.
They too are fast learners and have shown incredible resilience and adaptability on the battlefield given limited resources to combat a superior trained and equipped Global Superpower enemy. Where as in the case of Israel, Hamas is the underdog insurgent up against a superior force, the Ukrainians are the underdog insurgents doing battle against superior odds.
Is one conflict more important or more deserving of our funding and resources? If you think so you obviously cannot see the forest for the trees because big picture is that they are all intrinsically linked. If we take our eye off of any one conflict it could very well Domino into full scale global conflict the likes of which will make WWI and WWII look like Desert Storm or Grenada by comparison. The carnage m, death and destruction will be inflicted by cowards from thousands of miles away by combat drones and unmanned combat vehicles. Then when we have all depleted our stockpiles and survivors (if any) of AI driven weaponry it will be hand to hand door to door blood bath insanity.
The orange idiot insurrectionist claims that if he were (illegitimately) POTUS again these conflicts would have never happened. Well they happened in great part to his grand ignorance. Especially when it come to Ukraine and all the BS he was pulling on Zelenskyy just so he could get dirt on Biden. The man who got 8 deferments for bone spurs sure talks a lot of crap for a draft dodging loser!
JB, you must really like the taste of that Kool-Aid. The Dems hate America and by the sounds of things, you are one of them.
So please enlighten us with examples that the Democratic Party hates America? We will wait, and wait….Now show us your undisputable proof!
Well, gee, where should we start DC – obviously, we have the most corrupt administration in the history of our Republic inflicted on us, a loss of our energy independence, the economy is in serious trouble, an illegal open border, a Memory Unit patient in the White House, MASSIVE spending of our tax dollars, the weaponization of government agencies, a corrupt justice system, a ludicrous politicization of our military that seriously weakens it, rampant crime (especially in blue states), and no coherent direction for this country except towards a radicalized socialism. All thanks to democrat politicians.
Tis to laugh Michael! Tis to laugh!
The GOP is the majority not the Democratic Party. The GOP leadership caused a fault line in our country that may never be repaired when the decided to become zombie followers of the Great Orange Idiot who while in office massively increased our national debt, nearly caused a Pandemic Depression by tanking our economy because pretending there was no crisis for photo ops was more important than American safety and lives. Which has ultimately decimated our national healthcare system!
Now we have a impotent GOP with a handful of very seriously mentally ill individuals in their ranks who have decided to burn down our democracy on behalf of the aforementioned Orange Idiot who is up on more RICO and other Felony charges than any other criminal in history. And why is that? He likes to rape, molest, lie, cheat and steal from the people who unfortunately trust him the most. He hires “only the best and the brightest” only to turn around and slander each and every one of them when they speak truth to his irrelevant power.
Are Democrats any better? Well yes and no. Yes because they are not he’ll bent on destroying our democracy nor do they align themselves with Russia over Ukraine nor Israel over Ukraine. They don’t befriend dictators like Un, Xi, Putin or terrorist organizations like Hezbollah and Hamas.
Do they rape, molest, lie, cheat and steal? Evidence has shown they have and continue to do so just like their GOP counterparts. Only the GOP has been caught red handed attempting to steal a national election though. Who else but politicians get insider briefings on big tech, automotive and other high stock profile companies? They do and we don’t. They then are permitted to play the stocks without a question asked about whether they do so legally or not.
Americas largest threat isn’t from our southern border, our woke military, flash mob shoplifters nor trans individuals. Our largest threat is a global one. The world has become a proving ground to see how far the US and our Allies can be pushed around while we have our heads up our three point contacts as a government thanks to the inability of the GOP to get its act (and I mean act in every sense of the word) together.
Blame the Democrats all you want but they are sitting on the sidelines watching and laughing at GOP buffoons tearing their own party to pieces.
Like who you wish hate who you want too. Truth is we’ve had morons and criminals in both parties since their conception. But our government still functioned up until now!
Crime is pretty darn rampant here in AZ and not just in Phoenix either. And I guranfrickentee you it’s rampant in TX, FL, GA, AL, AK, MO, MI and many other red states. Has more to do with our citizens becoming a bunch of crazed delusional delinquents who feel it is their absolute right to do whatever the hell they please! Laws, Regulations, Rules and Social Norms be damned!
And why is that you ask? Well first off I blame social media and it’s criminal psychological damage it inflicts upon the feeble minded just as The National Enquirer and other nonsense rag papers did to the very same populations being targeted by social media now.
Who’s behind it? Well, everyone is in one way or another. Knowingly or unknowingly they hold onto and believe every lie and nonsense fed to them. Fox News excels at shoveling bullshit out to the masses for example. We also have foreign nationals and governments (some so called Allie’s) bomb barding simple minds here in the US with some of thee most ignorant, criminal, racist, nonsense I have ever read in my 60 years of living. Let’s just call them “Alternative Facts” ok? Q Anon has perverted our country en mass. And the rise of wannabe Dictators feeds off of it all!
DC your statement and question lack sense so I am unable to answer the ridiculous.
You make Yuge ASSumptions about my political affiliations. Also I’m not one of the many Americans who drank the Kool Aid of the Draft Dodging, military hating, Veteran Disparaging, Commie Loving, Orange Pumpkin Headed Insurrectionist bent on Destroying our Democracy.
I did vote for Ronnie Raygun and both Bush’s while I served my country in the US Army for 15 years.
How bout you? Where do you stand politically? I won’t make ASSumptions like you have.
DC,
please place your words in the form of a question. Thanks

When Israel intentionally attacked a United States intelligence ship.
We’ve done the same thing to some of our Allie’s. We didn’t use to have the advanced surveillance and tracking systems we have now so as a result bad things happened either through ignorance or accident.
If you viewed the video, the attack by Israel was deliberate to get the US into a war with Egypt. An observation plane circled a few times before the attack and the US ship was flying their parade US flag.
It’s a bit like the the US blew up the Nordstream pipeline, war is the health of the state.
If you believe the US is the good guys, please get your Covid booster.
I see you believe everything you hear. Good on you!
Look up the Italian cruise Ship Karen B. maritime disaster in which our merchant marine ships have been implicated and then it was covered up. I was in country unloading Bradley’s from ships when it occurred and they docked the charred remains of the ship still wreaking of charred human flesh right next to where we were operating. The Israeli Mossad had agents attempt to investigate the incident but were caught doing so by the Italian DIA and Carabiniere and expelled from the country. That night the Mediterranean was rough due to the Scirocco winter winds blowing from Africa. It was also foggy and no moonlight shone. An Italian AGIP fuel tanker captain reported having to dodge one of our merchant marine ships operating with its locator beacon off and it ended up hitting the Karen B. head on causing the ship to be engulfed in flames within seconds of being struck.
Do I think our country are the good guys? Not in every case but some. In this case I believe it is guilty of operating ships in stealth mode just as we accuse China and others of doing. And they too are guilty but we are no angels.
Especially when we fabricate a pre text to war just like the Nazi’s did to Poland. But we have also done some good in the world like when we after several years of dragging our heels over Bosnia finally went in with a plan and stopped the majority of the ongoing fighting.
Not getting vaccinated so others get sick is sheer ignorance and may kill you in the process so good luck with that and at other Q Anonsense you have to spout. Science and medicine are real. Both have saved untold lives up until the Orange Pumpkinhead and Thief decided to spout lies and BS about it all just to maintain his following of brain washed nut jobs, wealthy idiots who shite on others with glee and racist asses bent on putting our Democracy back into the days of Plantations and Slave ownership.
Again, good on you for that!
