Will the Hamas-Israel Conflict Spin Out of Control? by Paul Craig Roberts

According to Irans PressTV, the Iranian defense minister announced that the United States "will be hit hard" it Israels war on Gaza does not halt. It is unclear why the defense ministers target is the United States and not Israel. By United States he probably means United States bases in Syria and Iraq.

Add this puzzle to the growing collection. For example, if Iran and Hezbollah are behind Hamas October 7 attack, why was Hamas not provided with air defense capability against what everyone had to know would be massive Israeli bombing of Gaza??

Why did Russia provide Syria with the S-300 air defense system and prevent Syria from using it against Israeli and United States aircraft that attack Syrian territory??

I explained that the October 7 attack on Israel has the Biden regimes neoconservatives and Netanyahus fingers all over it-"please read here:" .

It is not only Palestine that is Netanhayus goal, but also Greater Israel which runs according to Zionists from the Nile to the Euphrates. The intent is to draw into the conflict Iran and Syria so that the neoconservatives can reopen the wars in the Middle East against Hezbollahs suppliers.

Without weapons and money from Iran and Syria, Hezbollah would not be able to prevent Israels occupation of southern Lebanon. I doubt that Biden understands this. Most likely the neoconservatives in the government told him that having a strong United States military presence on the scene would keep things from getting out of hand. Many Americans think that the president knows everything and is in control, but the fact is that he only knows what his officials tell him, and the neoconservatives have their own agenda.

That the intent is to widen the conflict is supported by the enormous quantities of weapons, troops and air power that the United States is assembling in the area. This concentration supplemented with German and French troops, according to media reports, go far beyond what is needed to subdue Hamas!!

The official explanation for this concentration of Western military resources is to protect Israel from Hezbollah and Iran. Adding to the collection of puzzles, if Israel is so vulnerable from attacking Gaza, why would Israel risk it. It makes no sense to risk defeat for the sake of revenge. Israel must have known in advance that United States forces would instantly be on the scene. How did Israel know that if October 7 was a surprise??

President Putin and it seems President Biden have realized that if Iran and Hezbollah are enticed into the conflict a wider regional conflict will emerge that could result in World War III!!

President Putin has been restraining the Muslims and Biden has tried to restrain Netanyahu. If President Putin succeeds, the neoconservatives and Netanyahu will likely initiate a false flag attack on Israel and blame Hezbollah, and the neoconservatives who run the Biden regime will use the false flag attack to widen the war!!

Certainly Americans and Europeans are getting no help from their governments or media in understanding that President Putin is doing his best to save them from a world war. Instead, hate continues to pour out against President Putin!!

President Putin cannot prevent a false flag attack!!

By performing the statesmans role while the other side agitates for war, President Putin is repeating his mistake with the Minsk Agreement.

He held to his hopes for this agreement despite clear evidence that the United States and NATO were building a massive Ukrainian army to subdue the two break-away Donbas republics!!

The result was a costly war!!

Now by restraining the Muslims, President Putin is denying Muslims the initiative and handing the initiative to the United States neoconservatives and Netanyahu. It is a paradox that by doing the right thing President Putin is likely contributing to the widening of the conflict!!

As Western governments and media are focused solely on Hamas atrocities, no one can think clearly about what is really going on!!

Republicans and some Christian evangelicals find themselves in company with neoconservatives demanding war!!

Protesters in Europe against Israels indiscriminate bombing of civilians are branded anti-semitic and domestic terrorists. ( See: "please read here:" ) In the United States even Jewish protesters against Israels war crimes are called anti-semitic "self-hating Jews."

It seems no reasonable humane voice can find a hearing!! In other words, there is no constraint on the conflict spinning out of control!!
