THE REAL STORY THAT LED TO THE WAR?

*Translated from Hebrew and printed with permission of the author

So this is Iran. But why her?

Because, despite their monstrous hatred and desire to murder us, the Iranian leadership is generally very thoughtful. Even when they choose to use direct force, they do so with strategy. After all, they knew that after such an excessive thing, Israel would lose its temper, pursue senior Hamas Officials and attempt to crush them. So what went through the minds of the Shiite leaders?  Why would they unleash a disaster on Gaza?

The answer: because that's exactly what they wanted:  Disaster in Gaza.

Those who are not satisfied with the answer, "because they are crazy", should go look for the money. Yes, it is once again the money.

It's always power and it's always money. But this time it's much bigger. No, not the millions that Qatar transferred to Hamas, not even the money that America pays to the countries of the region. It is much more than that--Much, much more than that! This time it's the biggest money war we've ever known.

Welcome to the end of the Cold War

We have climbed the highest high to the biggest money:  It was and remains in energy: oil and gas. Just yesterday Russia announced that Hamas is not a terrorist organization. Isn't that weird?  Why would Russia say such a thing? Russia,, who suffers so much from terror? Why is Russia  stoking the fire against us? What does Russia have to do with the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians anyway?

Now, I'm not saying that Russia did this to us. But I am sure of one thing, and you will immediately understand how simple this math is: The biggest beneficiary of the war could be… Russia! And with it, China and Iran.

The largest energy company in the world is owned by the Russian government. This is the most invested project in global energy ever, Putin's baby, built over the past two decades, quietly, quietly, in partnership with China in the East, Russia has made reality Putin’s psychic dream of a pipeline system from its territory to half the world, and also to Europe. Yes, to the west. It is a system of pipes that appears imaginary. In just a few years, Russia has reached a tremendous level of control over Europe's energy, until the achievement is sometimes unimaginable. Until the Ukraine war, Russia sold about 50% of all gas in Europe, and was the main supplier.  A delusional figure by all accounts that dropped to about 20% following the sanctions that accompanied the Ukraine war. You have to understand, in Europe gas is not just electricity and stoves, gas is a survival product with which the houses are heated on the frozen snow days, thanks to which there is hot water in the tap.

Gas is life.

Until recently, Russia dominated the West by controlling the gas and oil tap. And together with China they also penetrated the energy market in the Gulf. The one who greatly benefits from this cooperation with Russia and China is Iran. You know, Iran. Just last July, Iran signed a gas agreement with Russia in the amount of 40 billion dollars, which joins a lot of other business that exists between the two and between them and China. Iran sits on the second largest gas reserves in the world after Russia, and it needs to sell it to someone. So, with the help of Putin's infrastructure, Iran sells gas to... the West. Weird, right? Sanctions on Iran? Not when you have Russia.

Last year, Russia brought in an astronomical amount of 138 billion dollars just from gas exports and another 218 billion dollars from oil exports, and this is despite sanctions imposed on it following the Ukraine war.

Russia makes a lot of money from Europe.

Putin's pipeline is no longer an economic project - it is a colonialist infrastructure project of power and strength. This pipeline made Russia a semi-monopoly. Putin built with the genius of a skilled chess player the smartest thing he himself could think of. He is the largest gas supplier of Peking Europe. Russia is also the main gas supplier to the rest of the world. In fact, it is the largest gas supplier in the world. But Putin has a special fondness for the European pipeline, for a simple reason - he holds the West by the balls.

This project was built at record speed over the last 20 years, when the "Nordic Stream" pipeline was built in a year and a half, in partnership with European countries, God knows what they were thinking. This happened when America was busy with its Gulf wars, in Afghanistan and Iraq, in the post-September-Ilban period. You can say that America fell asleep on guard, and Putin took Europe, and together with China, they are taking the East
and the Gulf.

So America, waking up late to this Monopoly game, belatedly looked for a way to regain her lost control. America’s fear was that Russia and China use this power against the West.

So America, waking up late to this Monopoly game, belatedly looked for a way to regain lost control. America's fear was that Russia and China would use this power against the West. And this fear was confirmed in the Ukraine war when Russia closed the gateway to the West, as an ultimatum for the West's support in Ukraine and, in addition, one of the pipelines leading from Russia to Germany was hijacked by a mysterious terrorist act. 

Then the "friendship" became a little less friendly when gas prices soared in Europe, to the point that many families lived in the cold, because they preferred not to buy expensive gas. Gas and oil in the world jumped by 700%. Europe entered existential anxiety and countries like India found themselves on the brink of crisis. There is no doubt that this step by Russia prevented an attack by the West on it during the Ukraine war because, How can you attack the one who sells you gas?

America realized that it had to respond to this situation. It is not possible that in every conflict between the West and the East - Putin will close the tap.  So America began to dilute Russia's involvement as an energy supplier in Europe. It lowered Putin’s supply  from 50% to less than 20% This cut his pipeline plan as Europe started importing more gas from the US and moved towards clean gas which does not go through Putin's pipelines.

In addition, America has moved on to another very big creative solution. If Putin supplies  Europe through the north - it will outsmart him and bypass him - from the south. America's super-ambitious economic project has been given a very friendly name. They called it, "The Abraham Accords.”  Have you heard of it?

It is a peace accord, of course, but it's also a huge economic corridor, and it's also a supply route for a lot of gas. The vision is to produce a territorial sequence of normalized relations that begins in India, through the Emirates, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Israel and from there to Greece, Cyprus, Europe. So if Russia comes from the north - America wants to crush it from the south.

If you will, this is the Russian-Iranian-Chinese front against the Western-Sunni-Israeli front Game of Thrones - Easy for us.

Pay attention to the drawing I attached. Above is Russia's crazy pipeline system, below, the Path of Peace, as presented by Netanyahu himself in his celebratory speech on September 9th this year, a month before the attack on the area surrounding Gaza. There is one piece left in the puzzle - Saudi Arabia and Israel do not yet have official relations, but it’s not a story: Saudi Arabia itself is looking for a solution to export oil and gas from the region. Saudi Arabia is also threatened by the Iranian nuke, and of the alliance of the Shiite enemy to China.

So we will say "Hello”, It is easy. Everyone will benefit - Sunni Saudi Arabia will sell oil and gas to the West, goods will arrive from India and bypass China, Sunni Saudi Arabia will compete with Shiite Iran who hates them, and Saudi Arabia will gain a military alliance with America and Israel. Basically, America came up with a strategy that bypasses Russia, China and Iran - a goods and energy route from its Sunni Arab friends in the south of the Gulf that will compete with Russia and the Shiites in the north. Saudi Arabia is also deluding itself that it will get permission for atomic energy from the US, though I doubt if anyone would dare. But, you never know.

So, indeed, during the summer of this year, everything gained momentum when Biden and Netanyahu started talking about a historic peace between Israel and Saudi Arabia. Then on September 9, during the G20 conference, Biden announced his own psychic super plan: the "Peace Train". Not just a train, not just any peace - "a real big deal, changing the rules of the regional game", Biden's words. It is about a fast and advanced train that will transport goods between the countries of the Peace Axis of the Abraham Accords, from India to Europe, a wonderful vision in itself. But this train, with all the Peace,  hides one more important goal under the track and hidden from human sight - you got it already... a gas pipeline. Crude oil and gas will be transported by this train and advanced clean gas, by pipeline.

September 9 this year:  Note the words of Ursula Gertrud von der Leyen, the president of the European Commission, who specifically says the words: "a pipeline of clean gas". She tries not to emphasize it too much, but for everyone it is clear what this is about. It should be said that "clean gas" means hydrogen gas, which is friendlier and more efficient to use, AND which Russia's pipelines do not have. Simply put: It is an upgraded gas pipeline that will make Putin's pipeline obsolete.

Biden will have a bigger pipeline.

And this pipeline from India will also connect to the pipeline that Netanyahu agreed on with the leaders of Greece and Cyprus in January 2020, the "Eastmed" pipeline that will be the longest in the world between Israel and Greece, and from there to Italy.

And Saudi Arabia? It needs this new alliance very much, in order to destroy the Iran that hates Saudi Arabia and to bypass the Russian-Chinese monopoly, including supply of goods, to Europe…so much so that at the G20 conference the Saudi crown prince announced that his country would invest about 20 billion dollars in the project - even before the peace agreement with Israel was signed. According to Yani, peace is a done deal. What else can interfere?

America directly threatened the Kingdom of Putin and China with a word.

It is clear to everyone that such a pipeline is a disaster for Russia and China. And if it is a disaster for them, it is also a disaster for Iran, because it strengthens its hatred of the Sunnis from the south, and connects them to its hatred of the Zionists from the west.

For Iran, an alliance between Sunni Saudi Arabia and Israel, this is an indescribable disaster. This connects Saudi Arabia to the military power of Israel, and Israel to the economic power of Saudi Arabia. And that places Saudi Arabia and Israel as major players in the global energy market. It's a knockout.

In addition,, as far as Saudi Arabia is concerned, Iran is a hated Shiite, and it also has an atomic bomb.

So how do you crush the new front? Easy: Kill the peace. Where? in Gaza

A few days later, the Hamasniks were already training in Iran, and 3 weeks after the announcement, the meeting with Hezbollah and Hamas took place and the operation to thwart peace was launched. Everything happens in September, the High Holy Days of the Jews.

On October 3, four days before the attack, Khamenei was quoted criticizing Saudi Arabia for the peace plan, and he concludes his words with a firm sentence: it will not happen.

Iran chose Hamas, and not for nothing. Hamas is Sunni, like Saudi Arabia, and they are loved by the public in Saudi Arabia. We all  think it's just  a war to release some desire for conquest or a deep religious agenda, but in the end, it's money.

For Hamas, striking Israel is a good deed, to release prisoners, to give a sense of victory. But as far as Iran is concerned? They don't really care about the small Sunni organization that took over Gaza. Rather, the Shiites hate Sunnis so much that some say even the Jews hate them  less. It's DNA-level hatred. It is a hatred that is described in the famous quote, "Of all God's creatures the dog is the most impure, but a Sunni Arab is worse than the dog."

Iran could have chosen Hezbollah to start the war and it might have been an even greater success. But Hezbollah is the real child of Iran, a Shiite religious organization which it is obliged to protect. But Hamas, the Sunni "dog", which is also an "Arab mob" can be sacrificed on the altar of the pipeline. Mohammad Daf is stupid enough to think that Iran is in favor of the Gazans and this self- deceit flowed through the Sunnis like gas through the pipes of Russia and China.

However, in order to torpedo such a significant peace agreement, it would take more than some small attack in Dizengoff dragging in its wake a small cloud from which peace and Biden's train could be restored. They needed something substantial, big, that would resonate throughout the Arab world, until Saudi Arabia could no longer even think about such a peace. He needed something that would last for years. Israel will  need to go crazy, to be so angry that even Biden would not be able to stop it. He needed an unforgettable mega-attack, he needed an “white”  September. He needed a war.

And that's how this disgusting thing in the area around Gaza was initiated…..Not in the name of the Shiite religious war under Zionist occupation, but in the name of money. Not a Gaza war - a Gas war.

But surprise!

Saudi Arabia is in no hurry to call off the peace. Because until Saudi Arabia declares that the peace is cancelled, the great goal has not been achieved.

Note that the Saudis are quite silent. Israel is conquering  their brothers in Gaza and they are floundering, trying to keep some opening for peace with Israel and the huge project that is so important to them. It is likely that we will see attempts by Russia, China and Iran even to increase the war, to prolong it, with all kinds of games with the hostages being released in drips and drabs, and an organized and well-financed global protest, until it touches Saudi Arabia.

A few anecdotes:

- The psychotic madness of Hamas and the accompanying Gazans has nothing to do with the big picture. They are murderous wretches who gave the devil free rein to murder and rape us, and they need to be eliminate…to the end. Fully crushed.

- At the same time, you also need to understand the big picture because, from the moment Israel entered the arena of the global energy war and became a main player - it's a completely new story. We are,  Israel is now a significant player in the Cold War. Israel is not only a central junction between tectonic plates. It is also a major junction between gigantic powers. And this will only increase as peace gets stronger and the pipeline gets underway--and I hope it finally gets going.

- Hezbollah is in no hurry to enter the war and not without reason. 

Its interest is that there be an increase in the warfare between Hamas and get the attention of the Sunni world, which is mainly in Saudi Arabia, and to reach the goal of the defeat of Sunnis. They shoot some anti-tank missiles here and there, but it's lip service, nothing more. There is a limit to how much they are willing to sacrifice for the Sunni Arab Hamas.

- Russia went against Israel in public. It is probably in its interest at the moment that Israel be portrayed as an evil entity in order to push off the peace agreement with Saudi Arabia as far as possible. Russia and China are the main beneficiaries of the crisis. Unequivocally! And it also embroils America here, alienating the West from Ukraine.

- The Emirates, Bahrain and Saudi Arabia are quite silent. Everyone already understands that the peace project is in danger of collapsing, but they keep hope in their hearts for its existence.

- The USA came here like it had never been here before. Gerald Ford to Israel and another to the Gulf but Biden sits in the Israeli cabinet, What!?   Why?  What changed tonight? After all, this is Israel once again against a terrorist organization. What huge huge huge interest does the US have to protect this time? Is there some kind of pipeline under threat? Understand, this is the biggest project currently standing between the US and Russia and China. In the dimensions of the Cold War - it's success or failure.

- All of Europe is in favor of Israel without hesitation. The world is divided into West and East. Everyone already understands what is happening here. We are the only ones who tell ourselves that it is Israel against the Palestinians and nothing else. Europe would love to be freed from the suffocating hands of the Russian-Chinese monopoly.

- If you didn't understand what Russia wanted from Ukraine, now you know more--their oil and gas, and especially their territory where a significant part of Russia's old pipeline passes. Even if the cover of the story is the “terrorism”.

- It is very possible that the big clash between Saudi Arabia and Iran is still ahead of us. For sure, as long as Biden's peace project continues we will see more and more attempts to thwart it by Russia and Iran. Even the pipeline-railway, when it starts to be constructed, is going to suffer from "terrorist" attacks along its entire length. Therefore, it is a long story ahead of us - It has only just begun.

- The Abraham Accords are presented as some tremendous achievement of the great statesman Netanyahu. Come on, it's a huge economic project of America. She initiated, she constructed everything for the Russia-China bypass, we are another part of the puzzle of the Cold War. It's only sad that the victims have had to pay for the power plays of the power brokers.

- Apparently no one in the world really cares about the Palestinians and their terrorist organizations. They are just another tool in the Cold War toolbox.

- At the same time, it is clear to me that if Iran feels, one day, that it can conquer Israel, it will indeed try. And there will be a greater people who may help her.

That's it, it was long, huh?

Are you starting to understand the greater story?

In the end, it's who has the bigger pipe.
