Planned to shock

Hamas's brutality during the October 7th massacre of Israelis was not due to the overzealousness of new recruits but to top-down orders from the terror group's leaders. The terrorists purposely chose the most shocking atrocities in line with the guidelines of Brazilian Communist Carlos Marighella's Mini-Manual for Urban Guerrillas.

According to the book

Marighella's guidelines comprise essential elements of the seven-step "wars of national liberation" conducted by revolutionary movements to overthrow pro-West governments. Once successful, the insurgents destabilize other pro-West nations in their region, creating a domino effect, and moving each conquered country toward a socialist model with restricted freedom and a greater willingness to enter sovereignty-limiting international agreements.

State Department backing revolutionaries

Logically, such shocking atrocities committed by terror groups should build support in the target nations for their complete obliteration, and in the free world, for the embattled governments. If that were the case, revolutions would be certain to fail. The State Department, together with White House officials, mainstream news, and popular entertainers, however, have consistently abandoned pro-America governments.

Worsening the matter, U.S. officials have, after helping bring dictators to power, refused to support the oppressed masses attempting to remove those despots, from China to Cuba to Iran.

The plan

Hamas shook up the status quo in order to push Israel to make concessions it would not make in the absence of a crisis. Chief among the sought-after concessions is an authorization for the PLO, Hamas, or a third group to operate air and sea ports in Gaza that can be used to bring Iranian and other enemy nations' tanks and fighter planes into Gaza. The planned agreement may include a signature on a piece of paper agreeing to a “demilitarized state,” but the West Bank and Gaza are already supposedly demilitarized, despite thousands of missiles being shot from Gaza and road bombs being planted in the West Bank, illustrating that it is unlikely any future demilitarization will be enforced.

Willing to pay the price

Thus, despite Israel's large military campaign against Hamas, the setbacks to the terror group are but planned, short-term losses to achieve the goals of demonizing the government and justifying international pressure forcing the government into risky concessions far more significant to the revolutionaries than the loss of even thousands of their fighters (who can be replaced by new recruits with high salary offers, as long as the flow of Western money continues, or even increases, to allow the "oppressed" population to "rebuild" - some twenty thousand young men turn 18 years old this year in Gaza).

Hamas is even willing to have some of its leaders leave Gaza while others switch affiliation to the PLO or its subsidiary, the Palestinian Authority, as it is working together with the PLO in a “good cop/bad cop” ploy described below in step 6 and its payroll is already intertwined with that of the PLO:

Some 70,000 Gazans remain on the payroll of the [PLO subsidiary] Palestinian Authority [and claim to not work].

The solution

The problem also presents the solution. Each of the U.S.-backed revolutions depended on American support. The Hamas/PLO revolution can be blocked if the White House simply refuses to follow the seven-step plan for its success, a plan which explicitly calls for U.S. assistance to the terrorists in steps 3 and 7 (while mainstream media abet the terrorists in step 2). 

As U.S. Ambassador to Cuba, Earl Smith, who was ordered by the State Department to tell Cuban President Fulgencio Batista to resign and flee, put it:

Castro could not have seized power in Cuba without the aid of the United States. American government agencies and the United States press played a major role in bringing Castro to power.  [Emphasis added.]

Implementing the seven-steps of the plan

Frontline News posted the seven-step plan, as summarized by biochemist and foreign policy analyst Bryan Ellison who, in 1994, detailed how the PLO's attempted revolution in the entirety of Israel (the PLO was formed with Soviet backing in 1964, three years before Israel acquired the West Bank and Gaza) follows the below seven steps. Ellison's words (Ellison used a lowercase “p” for palestinians since they are actually Egyptians and Jordanians), which sound as if they were written today, are set off in italics:

Step 1: Members of the oppressed group are recruited, paid, and trained to commit shocking acts of violence to provoke a “heavy-handed reaction” by the target government. 

Goal: To transform a political disagreement (that could be worked out legislatively) into a military conflict.

At a secret 1983 meeting of the PLO, Yasir Arafat explained that the PLO had followed the Communist tactic of provoking a reaction by the target government, in this case Israel. As summarized by authors Neil Livingstone and David Halevy, “The first phase, from 1967 to 1974, said Arafat, involved shocking the world by means of brutal terrorist acts into recognizing the Palestinian issue and placing it at the front of world concerns.” 

By hiding its military installations in residential areas, the PLO has caused civilian deaths during Israeli retaliation, which the PLO has then blamed on Israel.

Step 2: Western media is flooded with often exaggerated stories of government atrocities while convicted murderers are referred to as “political prisoners” and the governing army is accused of authoritarianism, “secret prisons,” and “death squads.” The militants then hide among civilians during battles with government forces, “causing the government to kill innocent people accidentally.”

Goal: To begin the process of isolating the government from “Western, primarily American, support.” 

The PLO owns or operates dozens of newspapers and other publications in the Middle East, some of them written in English. It produces films labeled as documentaries, operates news services, and broadcasts numerous radio programs. It is known to bribe or threaten journalists covering the Middle East. It also maintains influence through organizations not widely known as PLO front groups; for example, Arafat’s brother runs the Palestinian Red Crescent Society, while PLO-affiliated organizations calling themselves “charities” or “educational” groups are active in the United States. And leftist groups ranging from the National Lawyers Guild to various civil rights, feminist, and anti-nuclear groups also work with the PLO. 

As a result, the PLO and its allies have been able to plant stories in our news media about alleged Israeli atrocities against civilians, and have created the widespread impression that Israel systematically violates human rights of Palestinians. By painting the revolution as a “spontaneous” uprising of Palestinians, the PLO has also convinced many Americans that Israel cannot hope to win the interminable conflict with the PLO. Such disinformation has eroded sympathy for Israel, setting the stage for further revolution.

Step 3: The State Department pressures the target government to make concessions to the revolutionaries as humanitarian gestures, including the release of captured insurgents and cease-fires allowing them to regroup and seize territory while increasing their demands.

Goal: To weaken the government’s image and embolden the rebels to increase their demands.

With the Israeli reputation having come under fire, the U.S. State Department has pressured Israel to begin making concessions to the PLO . . . President Clinton forced Israel to take back 400 Hamas terrorists after they had been expelled. Most importantly, the 26th Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, held in 1982, began the call for an international Middle East peace conference, where foreign powers could pressure Israel to yield the West Bank to the PLO. 

The United Nations adopted an identical plan the following year, and by 1987 the PLO and the Communist Parties of the United States, Israel, Palestine, Jordan, Tunisia, Syria, Egypt, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Lebanon, Morocco, and India had also adopted this plan. Now the U.S. government has followed suit, with the Bush and Clinton administrations having forced Israel to change its mind and participate in a series of such international conferences.

Step 4: The revolutionaries escalate their violence and unrest with mass demonstrations, “which agitators turn into riots,” to cripple the economy. At the same time, labor unions call strikes and Marxist professors indoctrinate youth and guide them to enter politics as supporters of the revolutionaries. Religious organizations are infiltrated by Marxists “masquerading” as clergy so as “to neutralize opposition and recruit more people into the revolution.”

Goal: To expand the revolutionary forces.

The intifada was born from an extensive network of PLO front groups in the West Bank and Gaza, including medical, agricultural, and women’s associations as well as labor unions and student groups. The violence itself was sparked by the Islamic Jihad and the Palestinian Communist Party in 1986 and 1987, and soon a Unified National Leadership of the PLO was formed to coordinate the protests and riots. The revolution is now being accelerated through religious institutions, schools, and labor unions. Hamas, the so-called “Islamic” group of terrorists, organizes actions through the mosques. Many PLO members work as professors at the universities, where they indoctrinate Palestinian students. Schools and universities in the West Bank and Gaza have become such focal points for violence that Israeli authorities have been periodically forced to shut them down; stores of knives and clubs have been found in the schools, used by radicalized students during riots, and guns and hand grenades are now becoming more common. Palestinian labor strikes are also on the rise.

Step 5: The revolutionaries attack the “oppressed” group they claim to represent in order to destroy opposition as they begin taking authoritative control of the “oppressed” population.

Goal: To “create the illusion of popular support” for the revolutionaries while frightening the oppressed group with the threat of being labeled a "collaborator."

Terror squads receiving money and orders from the PLO, Islamic Jihad, and Hamas attack people they accuse of collaborating with Israel, although the PLO itself admits the majority of such accusations are false . . . 

Some common murder techniques are beheading, mutilation, gouging out eyes, cutting off ears or limbs, and pouring molten plastic or acid on a victim’s face.” Often the victim is shot or stabbed in broad daylight, in full view of palestinian bystanders. Merchants who fail to close their shops when a strike is called, or who do not pay taxes to the PLO, have their shops burned to the ground; buses that carry palestinians to work in Israel are also burned, keeping the workers from earning the money to feed their families. Some one thousand palestinians have been killed by the terror squads, and many others injured.

Step 6: The insurgents step up their violence as the government further weakens and, at the same time, split off a supposedly non-violent political arm of their revolutionary group. This new “non-violent” branch then acts as the “good cop,” in contrast to the original militant arm of the group taking on the role of the “bad cop." The “good cop" then plays off the fear of the militants as it presses the government to negotiate its entrance, as a “pragmatic alternative,” into the ruling coalition.

Goal: To frighten the general population and the leaders of the government into bargaining away its remaining power. 

As the PLO moves into the final stages of the revolution, it must begin negotiating for Israel’s surrender of the territories while simultaneously escalating the violence. The PLO itself, and particularly Arafat’s group, Fatah, is playing the role of the moderate, sending delegations to the peace conference and asking only for the West Bank and Gaza. Islamic Jihad and Hamas, products of the “Islamic Marxist” movement, angrily condemn the peace meetings. 

The “good cop/bad cop” strategy was spelled out by a PLO official: “[Hamas says] all of Palestine is ours, and we want to liberate it from the river to the sea in one blow. But… the PLO feels that a Phased Plan must be pursued. Both sides agree on the final objective.” Both sides also cooperate closely. The PLO has funded Hamas, for example, and some terror squads in the West Bank and Gaza are operated jointly by the PLO’s Fatah with Islamic Jihad and Hamas.

Step 7: “Finally, in the name of democracy and ‘human rights,’ the U.S. State Department withdraws its support from the embattled regime, using diplomatic pressure to force out the old government entirely and replace it with another. The Communists have by this time maneuvered themselves into a position to join the new coalition government. Because this new regime was weak and divided, the Communists quickly moved to consolidate total power for themselves. Their naive liberal allies are executed, followed by systematic mass violence against the whole population. A Communist regime has been imposed.”

The final step involves betrayal by the U.S. State Department, which pulls the rug out from under the target government and forces it to capitulate to the revolution. Under the Bush administration, the State Department issued a report whitewashing Yasir Arafat and Fatah of involvement in terrorism, while the administration itself showed open hostility to the conservative Shamir government, causing nervous Israelis to elect the far-left Labor Party under Yitzhak Rabin. 

The Clinton administration, likewise, exerted direct pressure on Israel to surrender territory to the PLO, although Clinton carefully avoided taking credit when the Rabin government finally agreed to give up the Gaza Strip and part of the West Bank. 

Although Arafat simultaneously boasted that the PLO flag “will soon fly over Jerusalem” — Israel’s capital — the Rabin government has since made more concessions to Communist Syria, promising to withdraw from southern Lebanon and the Golan Heights. The Clinton administration has meanwhile pressured Israel to disarm the Jewish settlers living in the territories, and to allow United Nations troops to protect incoming PLO forces. Naturally, the PLO-orchestrated violence will only accelerate as Israel surrenders more and more strategic land.

Stay out

Since steps 3 and 7 require the United States government to pull the rug out from under the target, pro-West government, in this case, Israel, the way to defeat the plan is for the U.S. to disappoint the terrorists and simply stay out - not pressuring Israel into concessions and not pressuring it into a cease-fire without a full surrender by Hamas and victory by Israel. The victory would be one for Gazans as well, who have already been seen asking IDF troops not to leave Gaza and abandon them to Hamas.

By not pushing Israel out of Gaza, it would also free Gazans to exercise the right given to all other war refugees, to voluntarily immigrate to nations at peace, rather than telling women and children in Gaza to stay put in wartime, as Secretary of State Antony Blinken did, even as young men are encouraged to cross borders for mere economic reasons.

Instead, “US negotiators are pushing for a longer ceasefire in the potential hostage release deal and are hoping to end Israel’s war with Gaza,” ostensibly with Hamas still in power, while also pushing Israel to concede to a PLO-controlled state. If this scenario does not reverse, Israelis will need to rely on their leaders to stand up to U.S. pressure, when those leaders have a poor record of acting in the interests of Israelis to begin with. That pressure, according to the late Shah of Iran, amounts to an "order."
