The entire media is wrong about what happened in Israel. Both the pro-Hamas, as unimaginable as that term is, and the pro-Israeli side. Ultimately, what occurred is not primarily about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict at all: It is about Iran. Hamas was just Iran's tool to destabilize the peace process that was threatening Iranian as well as Russian and Chinese interests in the region.
This was not only an act of terrorism: It was a move in the larger new cold war between the US led powers and the China-Russia axis. Of course, people prefer to keep their problems simple, and they will portray any Iranian involvement, as well as Russian and Chinese complicity, down in order to keep this problem simple and, more importantly from the point of view of the authorities, to reduce the probability of this conflict spilling over into a larger one. The US governments hope is that if they simply don't acknowledge the fact that this is part of the New Cold War somehow that will increase the probability that this can be contained.
But have no doubt, Iran was behind this: This attack served Iran's interests far better than Hamas's. Indeed, Hamas was an Iranian asset that is being sacrificed to prevent Israel from solidifying its alliance with Saudi Arabia.
