Welcome to Blindspot’s Friday the 13th special. And just like that, apparently, the world sees the eruption of another war. The Hamas attack on Israel, much covered, commented on, and analysed, is without a doubt a major new conflict headache an already fractured world is contending with. However, we also know that the Palestinian conflict stretches far back in history, in fact not only to 1948 with the proclamation of the State of Israel, but as anyone who knows the history of the region, by thousands of years. Not the Jewish-Palestinian conflict, but the proven presence and historical claim current day Palestinian people have to the disputed territory called the state of Israel.

Blindspot is not going to dwell much on the unfolding tragedy in Gaza, but to say that a second front on Israel is already active from Lebanon led by Hezbollah forces. In recent days missiles were also fired into the occupied Golan heights, by Syria, signalling: a third front on Israel is a real possibility!

Today, 12 October, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu continued to liken Hamas to ISIS terrorists. Meaning that in political discourse Hamas is now confined to the category of global terror bogeyman ISIS.

That is why today we are looking at the unfolding events in Israel from a Syrian point of view. Whether it is related or not, we begin with a gruesome story
