Iran helped plan Hamas attack on Israel that killed at least 700 and gave the green light for the assault at a meeting in Beirut last Monday: Islamic Revolutionary Guards devised land, air and sea assault that has left Middle East on brink of all-out war

Senior members of Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah claimed that Hamas' surprise attack on Israel that killed at least 600 people was given the green light by Iranian security officials.

Hamas plotted the air, land and sea invasions with help from officers of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps

The official go-ahead for the attack was allegedly given at a Monday meeting in Beirut.

Four other Iranian backed military groups were believed to be at the meeting, including members of Hamas and Hezbollah.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken claims he has 'not yet seen evidence' that Iran was involved in the attack.

We don't have any information at this time to corroborate this account,' an American official told the Wall Street Journal.

The Israeli government formally declared war Sunday and gave the green light for 'significant military steps' to retaliate against Hamas for its surprise attack from the Gaza Strip.

More than 24 hours after Hamas launched its unprecedented incursion out of Gaza, Israeli forces were still trying to crush the last groups of militant fighters holed up in several towns of southern Israel.

Well Biden giving them billions of new money certainly financed this, and probably more, operations.

Nothing like this was planned in a week or two, more like a year or two.

"blinken claims he has 'not yet seen evidence' that Iran was involved.."

bumblin' biden's administration is adept at obscuring, lying, and always blame
someone other than themselves for issues caused by their idiotic policies.

"land, air and sea assault that has left Middle East on brink of all-out war"

In the past this usually meant the price of oil would skyrocket. Too bad comrade dictator biden has depleted the Strategic Petroleum Reserve.

Yeah it’s cute how Traitor Joe is pushing the obvious lie that Iran didn’t help with this and MSM is trying to help him

Hezzbollah is saying it. Our own intel people missed it.

The story says that, but I don’t see where the story is derived from.
Is there a video of either the meeting or the claim?
I don’t trust any stories currently being pushed towards war.
I’m not saying it’s not true, just that I want to see proof.

It was certainly a blitzkrieg. The unsettling part is that they were confident enough they could pull it off, make it happen.

Hamas is saying they had Iran's backing. I'm not sure Iran approves.
