Russia is behind Hamas attacks - ombudsman

Commissioner for Human Rights Dmitry Lubinets believes that Russia is behind Hamas attacks on Israel. He wrote about this on Saturday, October 7, on Telegram.

The Ombudsman noted that members of this group are received in Moscow at a high level.

“The last visit of Hamas representatives to the aggressor country took place after the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine,” he said.

Lubinets drew parallels between Hamas and Iran, which is Russia's strategic partner.

In his opinion, Moscow hopes that an attack on Israel will temporarily distract the world’s attention from the Russian-Ukrainian war.

“The Kremlin also hopes for weakening support for Ukraine from partners, in particular the United States. After all, Washington has direct allied obligations to Israel,” the ombudsman noted.

Lubinets called on the entire civilized world to strike a blow at Russia's plans and repel the common evil - aggression and terrorism.

“Ukraine, Israel and the world have common enemies,” he added.

Germany and France said they were strengthening security at Jewish synagogues, schools and monuments in their territories.

The number of Israelis killed in the Hamas attack has risen to 250.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to use the "full power" of Israeli armed forces to destroy Hamas.

#3  It serves Iranian needs to feed the Al Quds Force wing of the ruling theocratic kleptocrasy, to justify the nuke development due to Israeli "brutal over-reaction", and to de-rail any Israeli-Saudi rapproachment. Its a classic quid pro quo, with the Mandarins of the Middle Kingdom smiling in the background, as every bit of it serves their strategic goals.

#2  /\ If you wanted to force the US to face enormous pressure to shift military aid and focus away from Ukraine, Iranian Proxie Hamas works perfectly.

Exactly! A timely, 'back door' exit from the Ukraine and massively unlikeable Volodymyr Oleksandrovych Zelenskyy.

Zelenskyy the next betrayal? Unlike many of the other betrayals, no one will notice or much care about this one.

All of this must be accomplished prior to Donald Trump taking office. No potential 'peacemaker' wins left on the table for an incoming Trump administration.

#1  If you wanted to force the US to face enormous pressure to shift military aid and focus away from Ukraine, Iranian Proxie Hamas works perfectly. The Uni-party/MIC cannot ignore the massive political allies of Israel in the US, nor should them in my personal opinion.Israel is far more strategically, and a far better ally and friend, in an area where we have genuine national interests. The Puppet Show has spent all the money and spare parts already, the strategic petroleum reserve is at 17%, and we are facing a hard landing economically. The Russian-Iranian connection fits perfectly, and the Middle Kingdom sees nothing but benefit.
