Hamas' plan to launch a large-scale invasion and massacre in Israel was originally planned to take place during Simchat Torah the last Passover season(Passover's Seder meal), rather than on October 7, Israeli journalist Ben Caspit reported on Sunday evening(Nov. 5).
According to the report, for unclear reasons, Iran decided to postpone systematic attacks on civilians until Simchat Torah. But Caspit speculated that the delay may have been due to informal negotiations between the United States and Iran to release $6 billion.
