Joel C. Rosenberg, NYT bestselling author and dual U.S.-Israeli citizen living in Jerusalem, joins the show with details that are only now emerging:
Hammam al-Hammami identified a previous flight in July as his target, but a friend was in the crew and he could not bring himself to kill them along with everyone else, so he waited for another opportunity.
That opportunity was Wednesday’s flight.
The intended target was not just the passengers: intelligence sources believe he planned to incapacitate the pilot and fly the 737 directly into Ben Gurion Airport.
Every intelligence agency investigating this, UAE, Saudi, Israeli, and Indian, has reached the same conclusion: a deeply radicalized Omani Muslim acted alone.
On Netanyahu and the Israeli elections: Rosenberg draws the Churchill parallel directly, Churchill saw the Nazi threat first and neutralized it, and Netanyahu can make the same argument about Iran.
Churchill was still voted out the moment the war ended.
Israel votes on October 27th, and Netanyahu may be heading for the same fate…
