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.

    It’s well established that Netanyahu undermines moderate Palestinian leadership through legitimizing radical Palestinian leadership, aka Hamas. Netanyahu engaging in diplomatic relations with Hamas in Gaza while ignoring good faith overtures from the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank is par for the course. As long as he can keep Hamas in power, he thinks he can more effectively justify Israel’s ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people

      There is one thing doing that… And another thing of letting Hamas kill 1000 Israelis.

        It’s all the same thing to Netanyahu, just further justification for violence. Netanyahu very blatantly does not actually care about Israeli lives, only how events impact his ability to retain power

        Hamas killing 1000 Israelis unifies the country in a way that a weak Palestinian Authority doesn’t.

        I mean think about it for a second.

        You’re a bully. You want to kill some kid but you can’t just outright kill him. So you’ve been bullying this kid for years building up his frustrations and you know he’s gonna break soon. He finally snaps and tries to fight back. You use this opportunity to kill him and then publicly declare self defense.

        Seems pretty cut and dry for a piece of shit bully.
