In reply to the discussion: Pro-Palestinian protestors attempt to seize buildings at Penn, Chicago universities [View all]Irish_Dem
(81,740 posts)This is how it appears to have unfolded:
It goes back to the HAMAS attack on Israel.
Putin's fingerprints are all over that attack.
Hamas does not have the funding, organizational, military planning skills
or intel operatives to have pulled off the attack.
The CIA and Israel's Mossad are the finest intelligence agencies in the world.
And they did not get a whisper of what Hamas was going to do.
Hamas is not capable of pulling off that kind of operation.
Putin is desperate because of Ukraine of course.
He needed to distract Biden and force Biden into a no win situation.
Biden would be engaged on three military fronts, Europe (Ukraine),
the Mideast and the Pacific (China invading Taiwan.)
This would be politically and financially difficult for Biden.
The public would be divided.
Drum up support for the Palestinians.
Divide the Dems, split them right in half.
The whole point is to cause Biden to lose the election.
To rally the public against Biden.
Joe Biden is quite clever, has been threading the needle poltically.
Walking a fine line.
Some of the public has taken the bait, but Joe didn't.
Crank things up with the ginned up student protests.
China appears to be involved in these as well.
Xi and Putin just met in Beijing.
I am sure they had some drinks to celebrate how well it is all going for them in the US.
