According to The New York Times, “Israeli officials obtained Hamas’s battle plan for the Oct. 7 terrorist attack more than a year before it happened, documents, emails and interviews show. But Israeli military and intelligence officials dismissed the plan as aspirational, considering it too difficult for Hamas to carry out. The approximately 40-page document, which the Israeli authorities code-named ‘Jericho Wall,’ outlined, point by point, exactly the kind of devastating invasion that led to the deaths of about 1,200 people.”
And here I thought Hamas planned their invasion on the D.L., excusing Israel’s inability to prevent (or anticipate) the attack. Well, I guess I was wrong. Now, what does this mean for Netanyahu’s future? Hmmm. Let’s look at Bush II’s future after 9/11. He got re-elected even after it had become increasingly clear that Bush was made aware of the threat in an August 6 Presidential Daily Brief titled “Bin Ladin Determined to Strike in U.S.” People have an uncanny way of doubling down on their support of the worst leaders because I live in stupid hell. It’s as if people refuse to be proven wrong, so they simply stay the course no matter how disastrous the ultimate outcome. I’m sure the same applies to Bibi because why not? Israel re-elected a knowingly corrupt and now proven incompetent prime minister. People never learn.
