Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Director William Burns Sunday arrived in Israel to meet with leaders and intelligence officials as the Oslo process reaches its culmination with a final U.S. push for “Palestinian” statehood.
The intelligence chief is meeting with Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, Defense Minister Yoav Galant, Mossad chief David Barnea, and other senior officials to “discuss issues of mutual concern including the situation in Gaza, support for hostage negotiations, and the U.S. commitment to continuing to deter state and non-state actors from widening the conflict between Israel and Hamas.”
According to the New York Times, Burns is in Israel to shape the direction of the war, which includes pushing leaders toward a ceasefire. The CIA director wants Israel to allow “humanitarian aid” into Gaza, which is expected to further bolster Hamas forces who reportedly collect over $12 million per month in taxes on imported goods.
Burns also intends to demand the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) “do more to avoid civilian casualties.” It is unclear how many civilian casualties there are — with the only reports coming from Gaza — but further limitations on the already-restrained IDF attacks are bound to torpedo any hope of eradicating Islam's ability to wage war from its base of operations in Gaza.
Israel is only the first of multiple stops around the region for the CIA chief. Burns also plans to visit Qatar, which funds Hamas and serves as host to its leaders, as well as Jordan, Egypt, and the United Arab Emirates.
Burns has no stated intention of pushing Hamas toward a ceasefire or demanding an end to daily rocket attacks on Israeli civilians.
The visit confirms predictions by analysts who warned that the fighting in Israel — beginning with the October 7th massacre and Israel’s inability or unwillingness to respond — would provide a pretext to impose the globalist objective of Palestinian statehood.
Reports published more than 20 years ago described specialized Palestinian Authority (PA) equipment, units, and training for an overnight first strike against the Jewish communities of Judea and Samaria.
“The actions and statements of the IDF may indicate an official willingness to conduct a sudden ‘humanitarian’ evacuation of an additional thirty or forty towns shortly after an Arab first strike,” stated the report. “Thus in one quick blow, approximately 2/3 of the Jewish towns in Judea and Samaria could be taken off the map.”
Jewish communities have established countermeasures to address the specific threats they face from PA forces, that include a confirmed 14 mechanized armored platoons. Anti-tank ditches have been dug in the approaches surrounding Shechem and elsewhere, while local first-response teams have been briefed on the armor threat. As news of Burns' trip spread, signs were spotted in Samaria and Binyamin towns reading “CIA Out of Biblical Israel.”
Indeed, Burns arrived in Israel the same day the Pentagon announced the deployment of an Ohio-class nuclear submarine to Middle East waters, where it is assumed to be operating in the Suez Canal near Cairo.
The submarine joins a newly dispatched contingent of 300 US troops to the Middle East, along with the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower carrier strike group in the Persian Gulf. The naval force was the second in two weeks to be dispatched by the US after the USS Gerald R. Ford carrier strike group shortly after the October 7th massacre.
In addition to the aircraft carriers — each of which can carry up to 5,000 troops, not including their strike groups — Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin has placed another 2,000 troops on prepare-to-deploy status and is sending air defense systems to the region.
At the same time China’s Defense Ministry has confirmed that six ships from the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) 44th naval escort task force spent several days in the Gulf of Oman last month. The warships — which include two advanced 052D guided-missile destroyers — have reportedly been in the region since May and recently participated in joint exercises with the Omani navy in what the China government is calling “routine operations.”
The ships left the Omani capital of Muscat on October 19th and sailed to an undisclosed destination.
Last week Acting Australia Prime Minister Richard Marles announced that two Royal Australian Air Force aircraft are being sent to assist an existing aircraft sent to the region last month. The prime minister also said the aircraft will be accompanied by “a pretty significant contingent of personnel.”
Marles would not divulge details about the specific destination of the new deployments “for operational reasons” but said they will “support Australian populations in the Middle East.”
