    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.

    Then, in July, just three months before the attacks, a veteran analyst with Unit 8200, Israel’s signals intelligence agency, warned that Hamas had conducted an intense, daylong training exercise that appeared similar to what was outlined in the blueprint.

    “I utterly refute that the scenario is imaginary,” the analyst wrote in the email exchanges. The Hamas training exercise, she said, fully matched “the content of Jericho Wall.”

    So they did know. They even knew the plan of attack and still did nothing.

    At best case, the officials in intelligence that made that call should be fired for incompetence. At worst case, for letting it happen.

      Top leadership was probably looking for an excuse to enact genocide, frankly.

        That’s what it looks like from here.

        Sad, that would make the Israeli military just as responsible for the attack as Hamas.

      It ran all the way up the chain the first time. Then orders came down to move troops away and into the West Bank. How much more explicit does it need to be? At the very least Netanyahu sacrificed his own people. Even without getting into false flag conspiracies.

      I think really at worst case is causing it to happen.
