UK Threatens to Recognise Palestine As Israeli Intel Chiefs Demand Netanyahu STOP THE WAR

- A Radical Dispatch

1) Unilateral Recognition for a Palestinian State

The British Prime Minister has threatened to unilaterally recognise the state of Palestine by September unless Israel agrees to certain conditions such as “substantive steps to end the appalling situation in Gaza, agree to a ceasefire, and commit to a long-term sustainable peace, reviving the prospect of a two-state solution”.

Click to play:

PM Starmer: “On the 7th of October 2023, Hamas perpetrated the worst massacre in Israel's history. Every day since then, the horror has continued. The hostages are still being held today. The Palestinian people have endured terrible suffering. Now, in Gaza, because of a catastrophic failure of aid, we see starving babies, children too weak to stand, images that will stay with us for a lifetime. The suffering must end. Yesterday I discussed this with President Trump, and we're mounting a major effort to get humanitarian supplies back in by air. And UK aid has been airdropped into Gaza today, and crucially, by land. We need to see at least 500 trucks entering Gaza every day. Ultimately, the only way to bring this humanitarian crisis to an end is through a long-term settlement. So we are supporting the US, Egyptian, and Qatari efforts to secure a vital ceasefire. That ceasefire must be sustainable, and it must lead to a wider peace plan, which we're developing with our international partners. This plan will deliver security and proper governance in Gaza. and pave the way for negotiations on a two-state solution. Our goal remains a safe and secure Israel alongside a viable and sovereign Palestinian state. But right now, that goal is under pressure like never before. I've always said that we will recognise a Palestinian state as a contribution to a proper peace process at the moment of maximum impact for the two-state solution. With that solution now under threat, this is the moment to act. So today, as part of this process towards peace, I can confirm the UK will recognise the state of Palestine by the United Nations General Assembly in September unless the Israeli government takes substantive steps to end the appalling situation in Gaza, agree to a ceasefire, and commit to a long-term sustainable peace, reviving the prospect of a two-state solution. And this includes allowing the UN to restart the supply of aid and making clear that there will be no annexations in the West Bank.

As summarised in the below clip, this Radical Dispatch provides analysis on these developments and what they mean for Netanyahu’s future inside Israel.

Maajid Nawaz for WARRIOR CREED: “The topic today, in summary, will cover the threats of unilateral recognition for a Palestinian state by UK and allies. That includes Canada, Malta, potentially Germany, adding to the list of countries such as Spain, Ireland and Norway that have already unilaterally recognised Palestine. And we'll give you our analysis on that take while demonstrating, as we said…only a week after the October the 7th attacks that Netanyahu has overplayed his hand. Now, these unilateral demands for recognition or threats, we should say, for recognition of a Palestinian state come amidst internal domestic turmoil for Netanyahu and his war policy. As again, during the course of this stream, we will show you video of eyewitness testimony by a wounded Israeli soldier who served at the Gaza border on October the 7th, who testifies in the Knesset, we will show you the video, who testifies that the IDF were given a stand-down order on the night of October the 7th, instructing them not to man the border that night until 9am the next morning. Yes, you heard that correctly. Video testimony in the Israeli parliament by a wounded soldier, who served on the Gaza border on the night of October the 7th, testifying that the IDF received a ‘stand down’ order on the night of October the 7th instructing them not to defend the Gaza border by patrolling it until 9 am the next morning. Of course, once the attack began that night, they jumped out of their beds at dawn, as he testifies, to try and fight back Hamas. But this down-down order had already been given and they were not at the border in time. That testimony corroborates what we here at Radical Media via Warrior Creed and other platforms have been alleging from the 2023, the very month of the attacks, October the 7th attacks in 2023, that this was an attack, yes, by Hamas, funded, yes, by Iran, but facilitated and funded also by Netanyahu and the Likudnik-Zionists, for the purposes of providing a pretext for Netanyahu and his Likudnik faction to invade and annex Gaza. We're going to prove all that with receipts over the course of this stream, including with eyewitness testimonies, and we'll give you our analysis on why these unilateral declarations for a Palestinian state by Prime Minister Starmer and others, globalists, will fall short and remain gesture politics unless and until they occur within a recognised regional framework for peace. That regional framework already exists. The framework is called the Abraham Accords.

In promising to recognise Palestine, the UK joined Ireland, Spain and Norway who already did last year, alongside Slovenia.

Click to play:

PM of Ireland Simon Harris “..on these same steps with Prime Minister Sanchez of Spain, and we said that the point of recognising the state of Palestine was coming closer. That point has now arrived. Today, Ireland, Norway and Spain are announcing that we recognise the state of Palestine. Each of us will now undertake whatever national steps are necessary to give effect to that decision. In the lead up to today's announcement, I've spoken with a number of other leaders and counterparts, and I'm confident that further countries will join us in taking this important step in the coming weeks. This is an historic and important day for Ireland and for Palestine. On the 21st of January 1919, Ireland asked the world to recognize our right to be an independent state. Our message to the free nations of the world was a plea for international recognition of our independence, emphasising our distinct national identity, our historical struggle and our right to self-determination and justice. Today, we use the same language to support the recognition of Palestine as a state. We do so because we believe in freedom and justice as the fundamental principles of international law. And because we believe that permanent peace can only be secured upon the basis of the free will of a free people.

The UK’s announcement also appears to have then set off a renewed effort by other countries to follow suit.

These included Malta:

And Canada:

Click to play:

Canadian PM Mark Carney: “The level of human suffering in Gaza is intolerable. Canada has long been committed to a two-state solution. An independent, viable and sovereign Palestinian state living side by side with the state of Israel in peace and security. For decades, it was hoped that this outcome would be achieved as part of a peace process built around a negotiated settlement between the Israeli government and the Palestinian Authority. Regrettably, this approach is no longer tenable. For the reasons I cited earlier, Canada intends to recognise the state of Palestine at the 80th session of the United Nations General Assembly in September 2025. This intention is predicated on the Palestinian Authority's commitment to much-needed reforms, including commitments by the Palestinian Authority's President Abbas to fundamentally reform its governance, to hold general elections in 2026, in which Hamas can play no part, and to demilitarise the Palestinian state. Canada will increase its efforts in supporting strong democratic governance in Palestine and the contributions of its people to a more peaceful and hopeful future.

Germany was rumoured to be considering a similar declaration while the Israeli National Security Minister accused such support of equating to “returning to support Nazism”.

Meanwhile, Netanyahu seems to be living in denial while posturing to annex and rule Gaza on behalf of Israel.

Click to play:

Israeli PM Netanyahu: “All the massacres against Jews were preceded by horrible vilifications. The lies that were levelled against the Jews spread around the globe. We were poisoning the wells. We were carriers of disease. We slaughtered Christian children in order to drink their blood. And this spread from country to country and created massacre after massacre, culminating in the worst massacre of them all, the Holocaust, in which six million innocent Jews were led to the slaughter. Today, the Jewish state is facing similar vilifications. They lie about us. They say that we're deliberately starving Palestinian children. That's a barefaced lie. Since the beginning of the war, we have let in almost two million tons of food. Two million tons of food for Palestinian civilians, Palestinian children. That's been our policy. But in the last few months, this humanitarian aid has been interdicted by Hamas looting. They steal the food from their own people. But in the last few months, that food has not been reaching the Palestinian civilians because Hamas is stealing it. So we've decided to go around it. I've authorized the Israeli Air Force to airdrop humanitarian food and medical supplies to Palestinian civilians. We invited other countries to join these airdrops, and many have. We also designated safe corridors to which these trucks can travel without being looted by Hamas or endangered by combat activity. And we're talking now to our American friends about further steps to alleviate any possibility of hunger or the appearance of hunger. We're committed to doing this just as we're committing to free Gaza from the tyranny of these terrorists. Many Gazans come to us and they say, help us be free. Help us be free of Hamas, of their terror, of their cruelty, of their tyranny. And that's what we will do.

So in-denial, out of touch and isolated has Israeli PM Netanyahu become that his own former intelligence and IDF heads have openly accused his policy of being “messianic and extremist”.

Haartezt reports 4th August 2025:

A lineup of Israel's most senior former security leaders has issued an extraordinarily blunt public appeal to end the war in Gaza immediately, warning that its prolonged and grinding continuation is steering the country toward "the loss of its security and its freedom."

As Israeli intellectuals begin to break their silence by openly labelling their own country’s behaviour as “genocide”.

And Trump warns his Israeli donors that MAGA is turning on Israel.

The Times of Israel reports 5th August 2025:

The Times of Israel reports 5th August 2025:

US President Donald Trump recently warned a Jewish campaign donor that his MAGA base was beginning to turn on Israel, the Financial Times reports. ‘My people are starting to hate Israel,’ Trump is quoted as having told the unnamed donor recently, citing a Mideast expert, also unnamed, with contacts inside the Trump administration. The report describes the donor as ‘prominent.’ ‘There are people in the White House who are watching this narrative develop in the right wing, in the MAGA world, that is very anti-Israel, very anti-Jewish,’ the expert is quoted saying. The comments come as Israel has come under increasing criticism, including from Trump and other Republicans, due to images of hunger emerging from Gaza. On Monday, far-right Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, a MAGA stalwart who has promulgated antisemitic conspiracy theories and routinely calls for an end to foreign aid, called what is happening in Gaza ‘genocide’.

As Radical Media stated only twenty days after the October 7th attacks, Netanyahu has overplayed his hand.

2) Israel Playing “Target Practice” with Palestinian Children

Israel’s increased international isolation can be explained by increased awareness around the IDF’s horrific actions against civilians and children in Gaza.

Eye-witness whistleblower, British surgeon Nick Maynard has gone so far as to publicly testify that the Israeli military have been using Palestinian children in food queues as “target practice” by shooting at their heads, chests and testicles on different days.

Click to play:

Sky News broadcaster Yalda Hakim: “NASA, for example, is one of the last remaining. We just want to show our viewers the images that you captured from the hospital where it's virtually become a frontline itself.

Dr Nick Maynard: “Yeah, so NASA, it's in the red zone, so it's surrounded by the Israeli military. Most of the time, they were probably a kilometre or a little bit more away. But for three days, about two or three weeks ago, they came within a few hundred metres of the hospital. And it was extremely tense. We were hearing the bombings, the machine gun fire, nonstop all night. Many staff left because they found it too dangerous to stay there. Patients were discharged. One patient I'd done major abdominal surgery on 12 hours previously. He left the hospital after 12 hours, and I tried to persuade him to stay, but he said, it is safer for me in my tent in Al Mawasi, and we know that's not a safe area. He said, it's safer for me there than it is in this hospital.

Sky News broadcaster Yalda Hakim: “And your colleagues, we're hearing, a lot of the staff who are working there are suffering from starvation themselves, that many of them are queuing up for the kind of food that they are treating patients for.”

Dr Nick Maynard: “Absolutely, I've been to Gaza many times, so I saw some people I've known for years, some of them. I didn't recognise some of them. Two colleagues of mine had lost 20 and 30 kilograms, respectively. They were shells of what they'd been like before. They are all hungry. And they're coming into work every day, but they're then going home to their tents where they have no food. They are going. One anaesthetist I know in between operations was going to the food distribution points to get food for his family and witnessing the horrors there, witnessing the young teenage males being shot by the Israeli soldiers and seeing how chaotic that food distribution system is, Well, it's been described by the UN and others as a death trap. Those who have been there have described the situation there where the soldiers are opening fire on civilians queuing up. And I operate on many of those children. I saw young teenage boys, sometimes as young as 11, 12, 13, who had been shot at these food distribution points. They had gone there to get food for their starving families and they were being shot. And I operate on many of them. One 12-year-old boy died on the operating table when we were operating because his injuries were so severe. And what was even more distressing was the pattern of injuries that we saw, the clustering of injuries to particular body parts on certain days. So one day, they'd be coming in predominantly with gunshot wounds to the head or the neck, another day to the chest, another day to the abdomen. And I operated one day on half a dozen young boys, all of whom had severe abdominal injuries. One day, 12 days ago, four young teenage boys came in, all of whom had been shot in the testicles and deliberately so. And this is not coincidental. The clustering was far, far too obvious to be coincidental. And it seemed to us like this was almost like a game of target practice. We're going to shoot the head today, tomorrow it'll be the chest, the next day it'll be the testicles. I would never have believed this possible unless I'd witnessed this with my own eye.

This incredibly serious allegation of war crimes appears to have much supporting it in terms of corroborating evidence.

Here is video of what is reported to be a small Palestinian child with a bullet lodged into the back of her head.

The BBC World Service has conducted their own research into the matter and came to similar conclusions.

The BBC World Service reports: “The BBC World Service has compiled material in over 160 cases where children have been shot in Gaza and found that in 95 cases, the child was shot in the head or the chest. In most of these cases, the victim was under 12 years old. The cases we found run from the first weeks of the war up to July this year.

Israel’s military system seems to permit the IDF to treat Palestinian children under a martial law pretext.

Al-Jazeera reports 26th January 2025:

Al-Jazeera reports 26th January 2025:

An estimated 10,000 Palestinian children have been held in Israeli military detention over the past 20 years, according to the NGO Save the Children. Reasons for the arrest of children range from stone-throwing to participation in a gathering of merely 10 people without a permit, on any issue ‘that could be construed as political’. Under what law are children detained by Israel? Controversially, Palestinian prisoners are tried and sentenced in military rather than civil courts. International law permits Israel to use military courts in the territory that it occupies. A dual legal system exists in Palestine, under which Israeli settlers living in the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem are subject to Israeli civil law while Palestinians are subject to Israeli military law in courts run by Israeli soldiers and officers. This means that a large number of Palestinians are imprisoned without basic due process.”

3) Wounded Israeli Veteran Gives Evidence Implicating Netanyahu in Oct 7 Attacks

Israel’s behaviour towards Palestinian children is ruining its reputation abroad. Demands made on the country by former Israeli intelligence and IDF chiefs, and global allies, to end this “messianic and extremist” war are trouble enough for Netanyahu. But such troubles have just become a great deal worse.

Wounded Israeli October 7th war veteran from the Gaza border, Shalom Sheetrit has given evidence to the Israeli Knesset (parliament) further corroborating the view that Netanyahu facilitated the October 7th attacks in order to create a pretext for invading Gaza.

Click to play:

Israeli Gaza border soldier Shalom Sheetrit: “Six thirty in the morning, October 7th. You’re at the outpost. For us, October 7th starts before six thirty. I was a soldier in the mortar platoon of the Golani Brigade’s 13th Battalion, and that night myself, Yotam Sarur, my sergeant Tamar Ben Yehuda, may he rest in peace, the three of us were pulling an all-nighter. On Sabbaths and holidays we’d let ourselves pull an all-nighter until the dawn stand-to, and you know we in the mortar platoon have time to sleep until the next stand-to. So at 5:20am we’re sitting by the radio so as not to wake the radio operator, and my deputy battalion commander, Nir Boinflek, who was also seriously injured, and thank God he survived, suddenly gets on the radio with a strange message: ‘All the stations, I don't know why, I don't know how, something along those lines, no patrol on the fence until nine am. What time was this? 5:20 in the morning.

Leaked audio recording of the stand down order is played: “All stations are to hold their positions . So in terms of ground forces and Orev, we don’t have anything significant. The brigade issued a directive for our forces: pending a situation assessment until 9am. No vehicle is to approach Burma. I’ll say it again, until 9 in the morning, pending the situation assessment, no vehicle is to go down to Burma. We’re in rear staging areas. A brigade level arrangement. I don’t know exactly why. I don’t ask too many questions. That’s the directive, that’s what we do.

Shalom Sheetrit: “A little before it all begins, and Tomer gives us this look like ‘what?’ And you know, we’re simple soldiers, combatants, not commanders or officers, who can ask questions. It’s an order from the deputy battalion commander, we take the order and don’t ask questions. A routine passing of an order. And sure enough, an hour later, at 6:30, suddenly sirens

..Iri, I'll tell you the truth, I've been living with this since October 7th. And I was very afraid to talk about it. And when I got to the Knesset, it was after a period when I asked some senior army officers, ‘what actually happened there?’. And there were those who initially told me, ‘Listen, I'll tell you the truth, there was a sniper threat from Nukhba on the fence. So we didn’t want to send soldiers so they wouldn’t get hit’. And then over time it kind of dawned on me, and I said ‘wait, if there’s a sniper threat, how can it be that I - who am only 200 metres from the fence - don’t know that there’s a threat, how can it be that my friends are fighting without a vest, with underwear and socks, and nobody knows that something is happening’. We're only 200-300 meters from the fence. And then that was on my mind again, and really, I was suddenly invited to the Knesset. I felt that this was the real opportunity to open up this subject, and talk about it, and actually understand what happened there. And look, like you’re saying, to a lot of people it sounds strange, and actually what happened there and we're back to this again, and I'll be honest, Hila, we, I've been living with some kind of hole in my brain, since the October 7th, that something in my heart, feels to me that..listen, I don't know what was there, I don't know what was there, I want to understand what happened, like everyone.”

Journalist: “Look, the deputy battalion commander wasn’t a sniper threat, because deputy battalion commander says: I have no idea why and why not. And a sniper threat happens many times. He says this in real time, at 5:20 in the morning, it’s not like someone told him to say that, he received an order, without an explanation. It’s…”

Shalom Sheetrit: “Right, so we as soldiers, when we hear this thing, then of course we follow orders. It does sound a little strange to us, but soldiers in the field, and we've been on this line for almost half a year, and a few losses here and there. You know, from a loss to October 7th, there are...Yes, from breaches of order, true, right, from breaches of order to a situation of events like those of October 7th, we are talking here about, you know, something that’s surreal, that’s very extreme, to think that one day we would get to this.”

Journalist: “Have you talked amongst yourselves since? After it (the recording of the stand down order) was published.”

Shalom Sheetrit: “So of course we talked about it many times. And we tried to look into it. And I told you what all sorts of military people told me. I thought many times about talking about it, not talking about it, and at some point I also started to deny my own logic. ‘Wait, if they tell me there’s no sniping, as you say, how is there a threat? If he said I don’t know why and how..’ And I also, you know, I said maybe I don’t remember well, maybe it was that, and suddenly the recording comes out. You know, I have a responsibility here. I can’t talk about something like that on television. And there are consequences to what I say. So suddenly this thing popped up. And this recording was published. And what can I tell you. Like me, like you, like all the people of Israel, I want to understand what happened on October 7th. I lost many, many friends. I was seriously injured. Every day I meet with the families, with the parents, and really you don’t know how painful it is to handle it and support them. And people see me, Shalom, the one who lifted the wounded, they don’t know how many things I’m trying to do. I wake up to a war every day. I’m trying to reinvent myself. I’m trying to help these families. Every day is a war in itself. Also fighting without a leg.

Journalist: “You mean about that, to live a new life?

Shalom Sheetrit: “Yes, the injury exactly, and also to reinvent yourself. To move forward in life. Not to dwell on this. You know, in the end I was given my life. I also need to move on with my life. I can’t stay stuck in the same place. ‘I’m missing a leg poor me.’ I want to understand what happened there and suddenly this thing that came out. This statement, it scares me, it scares me a lot. I hope we’ll have clearer answers later on, and not to jump to conclusions, and not to worry an entire country, but it is very important that there are unequivocal answers here, and whoever needs to pay the price, should pay the price. So many murdered, kidnapped. It’s something that I, as a soldier, who served in the Gaza sector, I’m telling you, for every little thing, we would jump to the fence, for every little thing. It scares me, it scares me to think about what happened there.

As usual corporate media has ignored this hugely significant Israeli testimony, leaving only certain online outlets to cover it.

The Cradle reports 31st July 2025:

The Cradle reports 31st July 2025:

An Israeli soldier stated that he and his fellow soldiers stationed at a military outpost near Gaza received orders not to carry out their usual early morning patrol on the border fence on 7 October 2023, Israeli media reported on 17 July. During the time the border patrol would have normally been carried out, members of Hamas's armed wing, the Qassam Brigades, crossed the fence to attack Israeli army bases and settlements (kibbutzim). Shalom Sheetrit, a soldier in the Golani Brigade, revealed the directive while giving testimony at a meeting of the lobby for reserve personnel in the Israeli Knesset….’We were playing on the phone [at 5:20 am] and suddenly a strange message comes from my battalion commander,’ the soldier explained, ‘and what he says on the call is something like this: ‘I don't know why, but an order was issued that there are no patrols at the fence until nine in the morning.’ Sheetrit said soldiers from the outpost carried out patrols on the border fence every morning ‘because you are in an operational battalion and that is part of the matter.’ Hamas fighters attacked the Pega outpost and killed 14 Israeli soldiers there during Operation Al-Aqsa Flood…When asked if this was why many soldiers at the outpost were still sleeping when the Hamas attack began, Sheetrit stated, ‘I don't know how to answer it that way. In our mortar department, there was an alert at dawn, and we woke up. It's possible that in the patrol departments, they were told not to wake up. I don't know. I don't want to just say that’….”

The implications of this testimony are horrific for the Israeli, and wider Western public.

The Cradle reports 31st July 2025:

“...The strange order to cancel routine patrols along the Gaza border adds to evidence that Israeli political and military leaders knew in advance about Hamas's plan to attack on 7 Octoberand allowed it to happen to justify the conquest and ethnic cleansing of Gaza and the building of Jewish settlements on top of the ruins of the strip's soon-to-be-destroyed cities. Israeli military and intelligence officials ignored many signals on the night before the attack, and in the previous weeks and months, indicating that Hamas was planning a large attack to take captives to exchange for Palestinian prisoners. Female Israeli soldiers tasked to observe activity on the Gaza border issued multiple warnings to their superiors that an attack was imminent, but they were ignored.

Shalom Sheetrit’s testimony adds a final piece to the puzzle of what exactly happened on October 7th, and how was it allowed to happen. It is now more probable than not that everything the Likudniks initially claimed after October 7th was an absolute lie.

Tragically, most of the charred remains of Israeli Nova music festival goers and kibbutzim are presumed to have been caused by Israeli airforce bombs deploying the infamous Hannibal Directive.

The Cradle reports 31st July 2025:

After the attack began, the Israeli air force deployed Apache Helicopters, tanks, and drones to bomb the kibbutz and the Gaza border nearby to prevent Hamas from taking captives with them back to Gaza. As a result, Israeli forces burned to death hundreds of Israeli civilians and Hamas fighters in airstrikes in Be'eri and other kibbutzim near the border, as well as at the Nova Music Festival, per a secretive policy known as the Hannibal Directive. The deaths were all quickly blamed on Hamas.

This is a military protocol that demands the IDF kill everyone in case of an apparent hostage situation.

Click to play:

Israeli reserve pilot Col. Nof Erez: “We don’t know whether the hostages were hit once gunships and drones started to fire at the fence, once they saw the mass traffic through the fence that was coming in and coming out.

Journalist: “But Hannibal Directive is intentional, if it was deployed it was an intentional act - if hostages were hit (unintentionally) then that is (obviously) something else.

Col. Nof Erez: The Hannibal Directive was probably deployed because once you detect a hostage situation, this is Hannibal. But the Hannibal we have been conducting drills for the over the past 20 years, relates to the case of a single vehicle containing hostages - you know which part of the fence it comes through, what side of the road it would move to, and even which road. What we saw here was a MASS HANNIBAL. There were many openings in the fence, thousands of people, in many different vehicles, both with hostages and without hostages, it was an impossible mission to identify, and to do what they (the pilots) did. I know that whoever had the weapons systems available, broth drones and gunship pilots did whatever they could without the coordination with ground forces, because these weren’t around.

In short, and on the face of the available evidence, it is now quite certain that Netanyahu facilitated the October 7th attacks in order to create a pretext to invade and occupy Gaza, by issuing a stand down order and then ordering the Israeli Air Force to incinerate to death all Israeli civilians at the Gaza border who were at risk of being taken captive by Hamas battalions during this terrorist incursion.

From day one, former Israeli military whistleblower Efrat Fenigson has been making the allegation that Netanyahu facilitated the October 7th attacks.

Radical Media reports 15th October 2023:

Here is the full link to Shalom Sheetrit's testimony from July 10th 2024 in the Israeli Knesset (parliament).

And here is the full link to Shalom Sheetrit's recent interview, after the recording of the stand down order was released:

The shocking testimony of Shalom Sheetrit has been further publicly corroborated by former Israeli PM Ehud Barak, and Ami Ayalon the former head of Israel’s domestic intelligence the Shin Bet, who have also both alleged that Netanyahu worked with Hamas.

Click to play:

Journalist: So are you saying Benjamin Netanyahu deliberately boosted Hamas to try to prevent a Palestinian state?

Former Israeli PM Ehud Barak: Yeah, sure. He deliberately and systematically, even told, on record, whoever wants to avoid the threat of a two-state solution has to support my policy of paying protection money to the Hamas.”

Former head of Shin Bet, Ami Ayalon: So what we did with the permission of our Prime Minister is to let Qatar to transfer a huge amount of money in cash. Probably more than $1.4 billion. By doing it, we increased the power of Hamas. We did everything in order to make sure that Hamas will go on controlling Gaza. And Palestinian Authority will control the West Bank, so they will fight each other.

Journalist: “Netanyahu maintains that Qatar money was to avoid a humanitarian catastrophe. Having helped to build up Hamas, Netanyahu has now vowed to destroy it.

Former Israeli commander Yehuda Shaul: “He fed the beast and it exploded in our face. If you base your national security strategy solely on force, then you need to win 24-7 forever.

Israel’s domestic intelligence service Shin Bet has been making this argument, that the October 7th terrorist attack by Hamas was highly likely to have been facilitated years in advance, by Netanyahu, in the open for a while now.

Jerusalem Post reports 24th March 2025:

Jerusalem Post reports 24th March 2025:

While the Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) took a significant amount of responsibility for the disasters on October 7 in its report published unexpectedly on Tuesday, it also implicated Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu by implying that his policies regarding the Temple Mount, the treatment of Palestinian prisoners, and the judicial reform led to Hamas’s decision to initiate its long-planned invasion.
Other policies carried out under Netanyahu that the agency flagged as problematic and as contributions to Hamas’s decision to invade were his facilitation of Qatari funding to Hamas and his opposition to proposed assassination operations of top Hamas leaders at the time.

That last allegation made by the head of Shin Bet: ‘[Netanyahu’s] opposition to proposed assassination operations of top Hamas leaders at the time’ was explained in detail by the Radical Dispatch 18th October 2024:

This view goes some way to explaining why Israel’s CCTV footage at the Gaza border from October 7th has since disappeared.

It forms the background to why yet another Israeli head of Shin Bet Ronen Bar, is reported to have resigned in open disgust at Netanyahu.

The Times reports 28th April 2025:

The Times reports 28th April 2025:

Israel’s spy chief has announced his resignation over the failure of the security establishment to prevent the October 7 massacre by Hamas. Ronen Bar, the head of the Shin Bet, Israel’s domestic intelligence service, said he would step down on June 15 — nearly three months after Binyamin Netanyahu tried to dismiss him, saying he no longer trusted him. The sacking was blocked by the Supreme Court after a petition by opposition parties who said it constituted a conflict of interest motivated by the agency’s investigations into a corruption scandal involving Netanyahu’s closest aides.

All of this was outlined by Radical Media only a week after the October 7th attacks.

Maajid Nawaz for WARRIOR CREED: “But you can see there at the bottom of this image, we'd already published all of this for you in the Radical Dispatch as far back as the 15th of October 2023, only a few days after the October the 7th attacks, that same few weeks after the attacks we published, next week, in fact, after the attacks, we published that headline that's at the bottom of the screen for you: ‘Netanyahu Funded and Supported Hamas for War - Receipts’. You can see it being compared with the later 2025 headline from March by the Jerusalem Post, above it. It's almost identical. The Jerusalem Post says: ‘Netanyahu's Funding for Hamas via Qatar Enabled October the 7th Invasion, Shin Bet Reveals,’ and ours from two years prior in the Radical Dispatch: ‘Netanyahu Funded and Supported Hamas for War...The Shadow Knows.

So much for the Likudnik-Zionist talking point accusing any who oppose Israel’s war in Gaza as somehow being ‘pro-Hamas’.

4) Unilateral Threats Mean Little Devoid of Regional Efforts

The aim of false flag operations such as what appears to have transpired on October 7th (as shown above) would be to scupper any Middle East peace efforts being made by the Trump administration and other anti-globalist leaders around the world. Those who seek to scupper peace efforts are globalists who crave repeated pretexts for permawar in service of a one-world technocratic surveillance state.

As negotiations led by Trump’s peace envoy Steve Witkoff between Israel and Hamas in Qatar break down, it is worth remembering that the Israeli demand for Hamas to unconditionally release all hostages has formed a key and intractable point of contention contributing to the breakdown of talks.

These Israeli hostages deserve every sympathy. As do the over 300 Palestinian child hostages that Israel is revealed to be holding.

And though our above post should have specified Israeli, not foreign national prisoners such as Nepalese Bipin Joshi, the basic takeaway remains accurate.

i) Hamas are terrorists.

ii) By definition, so is the one who funded & facilitated them: Netanyahu & his Likudnik-Zionist network.

iii) Hamas and Israel are guilty of war crimes and have been for many years.

iv) Israel is guilty of ethnic cleansing in Gaza, and - according the former Chief Justice of the UK Supreme Court Lord Sumption, “most plausibly genocide”.

v) Release all hostages, yes. Including the approximately 300 human child hostages held by the Israeli government.

Considering Iran’s role in also backing Hamas in Gaza - curiously, this places Iran on the Likudnik-Zionist side of the Gaza war - it is clear that no solution to the conflict stands much of a chance without adopting a negotiated regional approach.

Pro-Israel British lawyers are already making a case to legally complicate Starmer’s unilateral declaration.

The Times reports 31st July 2025:

Some of Britain’s most prominent lawyers have warned Sir Keir Starmer that his government’s pledge to recognise a Palestinian state risks breaking international law. Their intervention, signed by 40 members of the House of Lords, said a Palestinian state would not meet the criteria for recognition as set out under the Montevideo Convention, a treaty signed in 1933….

…’You have said that a selective ‘pick and mix’ approach to international law will lead to its disintegration, and that the criteria set out in international law should not be manipulated for reasons of political expedience. Accordingly, we expect you to demonstrate this commitment by explaining to the public and to the government that recognition of Palestine would be contrary to the principles governing recognition of states in international law. We look forward to your response’.

The 1933 treaty, signed in the Uruguayan capital, laid out the four key criteria for statehood in international law. The treaty says a state must possess a permanent population, a defined territory, a government and the capacity to enter into relations with other states.

The letter added that there is no certainty over the borders of a proposed Palestinian state, while the government would face difficulty continuing to recognise millions of Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza as ‘refugees’, given recognition of statehood would mean they were in their own territory.

They also argued that there is no functioning single government, and it has no capacity to enter into diplomatic relations. Hamas is a proscribed terror group in the UK.

Clearly nothing moves in international relations that is devoid of international diplomacy, which means negotiation. But there already exists a framework for such a negotiated regional approach to Palestinian statehood. This approach, known as the…
