Cui bono. Could not have come at a better time for Trump. The entire thing smells like Israeli sniper.

The entire thing smells like Israeli sniper.

When I put on my TrueAnon hat I've come to the same conclusion. I mean, it's exactly their playbook. Incite or allow a terrorist attack to happen, and it conveniently plays right into and gives them pretext to do what they wanted to (or were going to do) anyway.

This gives the right wing a martyr and gives Trump the pre-text to violently clamp down on ~~Palestine protesters~~ the "woke" left.

Also, Kirk was running his mouth about Israel a lot lately (as you've pointed out) including on a podcast where he claimed that the IDF ordered a stand-down on Oct 7th to let the Hamas attack happen. I think he was also on another podcast claiming that free speech was being impacted in USA due to Israel.

Get two birds stoned at once, as they say.

EDIT: Good thing I don't wear my TrueAnon hat very often.

Yep. Of course we'll probably never know but there are so many datapoints that form an arrow as it were.. look at how Trump was the one that got to officially announce his death first. And immediately blamed the 'radical left'. No suspect or anything just put it straight on us. And then Crowder adds info chaff by saying the bullets had pro-trans messaging. Totally ready to run with this narrative and here we go, green light for right wing domestic terrorists to exact their revenge.

Some high-ranking Pissraelis were also saying the same thing about the radical left etc.

On the other hand, who knows, maybe it was just some random guy who did it.

Maybe we'll find out, or maybe we won't.

Welp. There you have it. Occam's razor was incel gamer due to historical precedence but I couldn't believe they would be so idiotic. Mea culpa and teachable moment for myself
