Everybody Wants Gaza's Gas
The $500 billion windfall shoring up EU supplies

Unsurprisingly it's rarely/never mentioned by MSM or our govs but natural gas reserves & a shit ton of $ was the key driving force behind (the plainly Israeli/US orchestrated Oct 7th attacks which in turn then "excused") the complete genocide of Palestinians

Three things about the Witkoff tapes:
1) It appears Western intelligence services have decided to let Witkoff (and Trump) know they have recordings of their traitorous conversations w/Russia.
2) This Ukraine "deal" was all Witkoff's idea.
3) Congressional leaders should demand he be fired.
