As the genocide against Palestinians of Gaza is about to be completed with an act of unprecedented brutality by the Zionists and butcher Netanyahu through the bombardment of about 1.4 million civilians in Rafah, it seems that they have already set their next primary goal. Which, in short, is to grab the natural gas resources off shore Gaza, together with their US imperialist buddies whose contribution to the genocide has been undoubtedly critical.
As already reported, in 2007, Hamas came to power and Israel launched an offensive on Gaza Strip, leaving behind 1,400 dead Palestinians, but taking with it the gas fields. Within a year, Israel announced the discovery of the Leviathan natural gas field, which did include Gaza's riches, valued at 453 billion dollars. But Gazans have been denied around 47 billion dollars in revenue. As for Tel Aviv, it's gunning to become a new hub.
At that moment in time, that is 2022,
Russian oil and gas were sanctioned. Iranian oil was sanctioned. Syrian
oil fields were illegally occupied (and still are), by US forces. The
key port of Latakia was being bombed by Israel, and the port of Beirut,
the gateway to the Middle East, lay in ruins.
And
so Israel, with its seas of gas, its working ports, is an answer to
Europe's problems and perhaps, most critically,, the US blessing. US
Congress has decided that Israeli energy is in the highest national
security interest of Washington. So D.C. was only too happy for Tel Aviv
to become a key global player.
For that purpose, US imperialists are about to build a port which will be masked as part of a "humanitarian corridor" for humanitarian aid to the Palestinian civilians. As The Canary reported:
As Gazans mark a devastating start to Ramadan on the brink of wide-spread famine, a Spanish non-profit boat set sail on Tuesday 12 March from Cyprus. Crucially, the vessel is carrying 200 tonnes of desperately needed food aid to the strip – currently under Israel’s brutal siege. It’s a precursor to the new Gaza aid maritime corridor.
With Israel severely cutting off land shipments into the territory, the international community has sought to diversify routes for delivering aid. So of course, this is where the aid boat comes in.
The non-profit Open Arms ship left the port of Larnaca and will travel roughly 400 kilometres (250 miles) across the Mediterranean to Gaza. Open Arms partnered with US charity World Central Kitchen, whose staff will take delivery of the shipment. US charity World Central Kitchen said work was “underway” on a jetty to unload the shipment.

Notably, the Spanish non-profit ship is the first to use a much-lauded new maritime aid corridor intended to facilitate deliveries of food to the Palestinian territory. This is a joint initiative between the European Commission (EC), Germany, Greece, Italy, the Netherlands, the Republic of Cyprus, the United Arab Emirates, the UK, and the US.
In effect, the proposal will enable countries to transport aid on the sea route between Cyprus and Gaza. As part of the plan, the American military will build a temporary Gaza pier to offload these supplies. Ostensibly, the non-profit vessel now on route is a torch-bearer for the flagship new aid project.
However, as some organisations and folks have pointed out on X, all is likely not as settler-colonial Israel and its Western imperialist backers would have you believe.

Effectively, Israel has lifted the blockade to enable vehicles carrying US soldiers through to build the port, but continues to stop aid trucks from entering Gaza.
[...]
Ultimately, of course, the new port and Gaza aid maritime corridor looks largely a pretext for US militaristic expansion and energy colonialism. Unite’s Howard Beckett called it out:
Israel 🇮🇱 blocks aid trucks entering Gaza 🇵🇸 as children starve in front of our eyes. And 🇺🇸 & 🇬🇧 are silent.
But the trucks needed to build the ‘port’ pass into Gaza with ease.
Why?
The port is not for aid
It is a joint US 🇺🇸 Israel 🇮🇱 military base.

Meanwhile, ecological economics professor Julia Steinberger spelled out the oil and gas interests likely at the heart of the project:
Some predictions I am willing to make.
1. This infrastructure will be used for drilling and extracting fossil fuels for Western companies.
2. This infrastructure will be used for colonising Gaza with Israeli-US military and settlements.
3. Very little humanitarian aid ...

The false flag theory concerning the October 7 attack becomes more and more solid through the actions of the Zionists, the US imperialists and their European pets, as the first real-time genocide of 21st century is taking place in front of our eyes.
As we already pointed out: if we consider the fact that Hamas is actually Israel's fatal creature and that Netanyahu himself used Hamas
as a tool to divide Palestinians and prevent the establishment of a
Palestinian state, the October 7 attack has a strong smell of a false
flag operation.
