 I’ve seen the course of events for the past 30+ years, so it’s a feeling based on observation. This is a highly coordinated attack that has likely been supported by outside actors, and has the potential expand into a much wider conflict, especially after the Israeli government’s response. Many countries could become involved in this. This is a conflict that has spanned multiple generations, and if you’re familiar with the Strauss–Howe generational theory, it’s in line with the idea that we are now in the Crisis Stage, or “Fourth Turning.”
