Cycle of War Now Promised From All Quarters - Hamas - Hizbollah - Russia/Syria - Iranian Islamic Regime

With the Russian presence in Syria now taking up defense of Iranian assets in Syria and telling Israel the rules of engagement are changing, one giant step of bringing down the darker cloud of hostilities has just been made; and balloon attacks from Gaza become a diversionary smoke screen.
Elsewhere, a petition to ignore the supernatural aspects of the Middle East conflicts seems to suggest the need to avert the gaze from the portending horrors as somehow necessary to not blame religious affinities for the tragedies continuing to haunt the Israeli people in the now perennial attacks; and yet Islamic Waqf (under Jordanian auspices) attacks in order to 'protect' the Temple Mount from 'Israeli religious prayer activities' is not a religious (supernatural) war; then what is?
And if Hamas, Hizbollah, Russian/Syrian, and Iranian Islamic Regime's attacks are not enough, let us not forget Turkey who is already involved in fifth column activities as they had indicated.
When one looks at the build up of all these activities and the issues of viral attacks both epidemically and technologically, the only surprise is going to be the timing; the rest is the fait accompli waiting in the wings ...........
