This is worth a read since Seymour Hersh has a history of providing very accurate information, imo.
Old Seymour Hersh of Watergate fame, who dug up a damned sight more dirt than Woodward and Bernstein combined?
Oh, hell yeah. Thanks for the link!
Seymour Hersh said:The aim of the forced resettlement of people in Gaza is to prevent them from being used as “human shields” by Hamas. According to an Israeli insider, the concept goes back to the early US war in Vietnam, to the “Strategic Hamlet Plan”. This envisaged the forced relocation of Vietnamese civilians from contested areas to hastily constructed accommodation in South Vietnamese areas. The abandoned areas were declared “free fire zones” and anyone found there was targeted by U.S. troops.
Over the next few days, the remaining buildings in Gaza City will be systematically destroyed, Hersh reports. Then, according to the insider, the bunker-busting bombs will follow. Later, the Israeli infantry should begin “cleaning up work,” that is, they should look for survivors.
The US journalist also quotes a European intelligence officer with Middle East operational experience, from whose point of view Egypt does not want to allow the Palestinians and thus Hamas into the country. Regarding the planned use of bunker-busting bombs, he said: "A city in ruins is just as dangerous as at any other time." People who don't know what to do are talking about the bombing.
Hamas has prepared for this: “They’re just waiting for it.” It was a carefully planned operation by the Islamist militia, which expected the Israeli reaction to it. According to the intelligence official, the covenant-busting bombs would not be able to penetrate deep enough into the ground to destroy the Hamas tunnels.
Then they hold a referendum about giving Israel mineral rights to all that gas offshore, and who's left to vote no?
Somebody tell me again how Israel is no longer in control of the Hamas they originally created. Everything I've seen so far makes Hamas look like False Flags R Us.
