I had another take. The timing is suspicious, since only a week ago a continuing resolution was passed with 0 funding for Ukraine aid, and it's obvious that support for Ukraine is waning. There isn't a clear path forward for more Ukraine funding as long as Republicans control the house. American spooks could have goaded Hamas into attacking, as a way to drum up flagging war support in America.

I know it sounds a bit conspiratorial, and maybe it's not true. But considering that the US almost certainly bombed Nordstream2, I wouldn't put anything past our MIC.
