Trump assassination attempt makes an excellent distraction from genocide

I have to say this. Because it’s ridiculous, in a dark and twisted way. Especially given what looks like grave incompetence in the Secret Service. With the very high numbers of Palestinians the IOF have slaughtered the past few days, I cannot help thinking, half jokingly, that somehow Netanyahu—or perhaps Ben-Givr or Smotrich—is behind the assassination attempt on Trump, to give the U.S. such an extreme distraction we cannot take our eyes and ears off of, so that we stop paying attention to the U.S. backed Israel genocide against the Palestinians, at least for a little while. I am half joking, because I honestly wouldn’t put it past them to actually do something like that. Yes, I know Netanyahu wants Trump to win, but he’s starting to have bigger problems, and he knows it’s still a good bet that no matter who the U.S. President is, they’ll let him and Israel basically do whatever the fuck they want. Additionally, regardless of whether the assassination attempt were successful or not, it might also stir up the violent feelings and attitudes that Americans tend to have in spades, which might then morph into feeling more supportive of Israel’s mass murdering Palestinians everyday. 

Just sayin’, it’s not impossible…
