It seems that false flag season is well under way because yet another major incident has arrived at the perfect moment for Netanyahu. This one regards the attempted hijacking of a Flydubai flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv. In fairness, I don’t know if it was another false flag, so let’s look at what we do know.

The Israeli prime minister has been warning us for weeks about major incidents—and now they’re happening right on cue. Just a day before this one, Netanyahu said: “We have indications that, ahead of the elections, our enemies will try to attack us.”

Why would Israel’s enemies do something that would boost Netanyahu in the polls? Surely they wouldn’t—and there’s no evidence of involvement from Iran or anyone else. If this thing wasn’t staged, it seems to either be a lone wolf or a disturbed individual, in which case how was it predicted?

Sure it could be a coincidence, but Netanyahu’s really good at predicting this sort of thing. Every time he says major incidents are gonna happen, they do. What’s weird is they often turn out to have no terror connection. Strangely, he wasn’t good at predicting October 7 though—all the evidence points to him deliberately ignoring that one.

We know that Netanyahu’s in trouble and it’s less than one month until polling day. The legal cases against him haven’t gone away and his coalition is shaky. His pitch to the electorate has always been that he’s the security guy. He desperately needed voters to feel that he’s the one who can protect them. Then, right after the Fairford incident, a plane full of Israelis was nearly flown into the ground by a co-pilot shouting Jihadist lines.

Fighter jets were scrambled as Netanyahu held emergency talks. Within hours, he was suggesting it was a Jihadist attack and praising the Israelis who stopped it. “We know that he underwent radical Islamist indoctrination,” Netanyahu said. He figured that out quickly, didn’t he?

Suddenly, the news cycle switched from Netanyahu’s legal problems to “they’re still trying to kill Jews.” Crises are essential to his survival, but a crash would’ve meant dead Israelis and questions about how it was allowed to happen. A near-miss offers maximum political gain with minimal risk. We’ve already heard a million different versions of this story. Here’s what we’re now being told:

The aircraft left Dubai with about 180 people on board and a couple of hours in, transmitted an emergency squawk and a hijack code. This seemed odd because planes are supposed to basically be hijack-proof. Now consider that the incident happened right at the moment when tracking data would be public and phones were recording.

Passengers captured the moment the plane plummeted by about 14-20,000 feet. It manoeuvred erratically before stabilising, diverting and safely landing at Tabuk in Saudi Arabia. Both pilots were hospitalised and some of the passengers and crew suffered minor injuries.

The story has changed multiple times, but initially it was that the plane plummeted, and then the captain was stabbed by the co-pilot who yelled “Allahu Akbar”, and then passengers broke into the cockpit and saved the day.

People pointed out this makes no sense, not least because the cockpit door’s reinforced. From the outside, it can only be opened with a code—and that request has to be accepted or rejected by the pilot.

The story was updated so that the stabbing took place first, and then the plane plummeted and the injured captain managed to open the door. Some claims are that he used his foot, which would seem unlikely. From what I understand, the opening mechanism needs to be pushed down and twisted. Also, the attacker would’ve seen him doing this because it lies between the chairs.

I’m sorry to be graphic here, but surely the attacker would’ve stabbed the pilot in the jugular from behind, and then stabbed him a couple of more times to make sure he was dead, and then flew the plane into the ground. How did he do such a bad job? And how did that knife make it past screening into a cockpit?

To further add to the confusion, Netanyahu has suggested the weapon was an axe rather than a knife, contradicting witnesses.

Let’s assume the co-pilot made a very poor attempt at the stabbing/axing. In that case, why did the plane plummet? If the captain was not incapacitated and in a position to fight back, surely the co-pilot wouldn’t have been in charge of the controls.

We’re told the captain used the last moments of his energy to open the door, somehow without the co-pilot noticing, and then slumped in front of the door, blocking it. Passengers then had difficulty opening the door because he was in the way.

When passengers entered the cabin, they restrained the co-pilot (without anyone being stabbed/axed), gave him a beating and tied him up. A plumber then took control of the plane, using knowledge gained from watching accident-investigation programs!

From what I’ve gathered, the plumber stabilised the plane and then two off-duty pilots took over. A passenger says he had to shake those pilots and tell them to get to the front. I’ve no idea why they needed prompting.

Some media outlets told us the captain and co-pilot were Russian and Ukrainian, which doesn’t fit the Jihadist narrative. The story was later updated so that the pilots were Indian and Omani. The problem is that Omani pilots aren’t allowed under existing arrangements with Israel.

As you can see, that’s an awful lot of weirdness for one incident. Not every point people are making is valid though. Some are pointing out that oxygen masks didn’t drop during the plunge. From what I’ve gathered, a dive wouldn’t necessarily trigger masks unless there was decompression. I thought this was worth clarifying.

The staging hypothesis runs into problems because we have tracking data and other evidence that suggests either something real took place—or it was an elaborate hoax involving an airline, a Saudi airport, Saudi authorities, a hospital, and many witnesses.

Perhaps a real event took place and this was political opportunism, or if we really want to get conspiratorial, maybe the pilot was under some MK Ultra style control! I don’t know what to make of any of this, so make your own mind up.

Let’s examine all the footage in this article to see if it helps. The video of the dive is the least convincing piece of evidence. Did someone just happen to be filming in a plane at the time of descent? Or did they suddenly start filming when everyone else was screaming and flailing? Either way it’s certainly odd behaviour. It gets even odder when you consider there are multiple videos of the dive.

There are also short clips showing passengers covered in blood that possibly came from tending to the injured pilot, but they do not show enough to tell us anything substantial.

The best evidence is a long, pixelated video of the injured captain. You can’t see anything graphic, but the actions and speech of the passengers seem natural enough. A shorter video shows glimpses of the captain’s unpixellated body, but I couldn’t find a video showing stab wounds. Obviously, that doesn’t mean one doesn’t exist.

Iranian media reported that Israel was planning to blame an aviation incident on Iran, claiming they’d heard preparatory chatter. However, this claim was made after the incident took place so it’s easier to dismiss, even if it sounds believable.

Every explanation runs into problems, but it’s fair to say the whole thing seems convenient for Israel. Netanyahu predicted a major incident one day before it happened, but had no specific prior warning about this flight. He’s now saying the co-pilot was “perhaps a terrorist or perhaps a whack job.” Previously he sounded confident he was a terrorist.

No evidence has been presented showing a terror connection and some Israeli officials are now saying the co-pilot acted alone. Others are still pushing the Iran terror connection.

It’s definitely a problem that the Iran narrative was being pushed hard before the details were clear. This is a pattern that we see again and again: Israeli politicians politicise an event before they know what took place. Either it’s shameless opportunism or it’s pre-planned.

If it was a terror attack, it was a hopeless effort, just like Fairford. We have no deaths, a bunch of heroes, and a narrative that paints a picture of Israel being under threat. Netanyahu is taking every photo opportunity and treating it as a PR exercise. Regardless of whether this was real or a false flag, it benefits him.
