An independent commentator I follow, who regards Q as authentic and important, pointed out a Washington Post article that seemed to announce such a false flag.

WaPo is setting us up for a USS Liberty type false flag involving a US carrier off the coast of Israel. Hamas submarine drones will sink some doctrinally outdated floating scrap to force resolution in the House on a Speaker and financial aid for Ukraine/Israel.

Hamas may have a “deadly surprise” for the Israeli army - The Washington Post writes, citing experts.

It is known that the militant group has been working for years to acquire underwater drones and other advanced weapons that have not yet been used.

The Palestinians have acquired technology to create a range of new weapons, from powerful anti-tank mines and roadside bombs to precision-guided missiles. Some of them were developed by Hamas engineers outside Gaza, in most cases with technical assistance from Iran.

Experts admit that Hamas understood Israel's response to the invasion, and therefore, after the start of the ground operation, the IDF could launch a surprise strike, possibly on targets far from the front line.

"The idea is to move to a higher level of escalation and then pull the rabbit out of the hat," says Fabian Hinz, a defense analyst at the International Institute for Strategic Studies, a British think tank.

An IDF spokesman responded that they "have defense systems in place."
