The NYT came out with a story that sheds a lot of light on what happened BEFORE 10/7. It has receipts, and it runs through MONTHS of previous Israeli intelligence gathering that specified Hamas was not only planning an attack like 10/7 over the Gaza borders, it actually had the fucking BLUEPRINTS for such an offensive. One intelligence female officer, in particular, sounded the alarm, again and again, including REAL intel about Hamas exercises preparing for 10/7. But no one listened.
Sounds
familiar? If you read me, you know I once went down the 9/11 rabbit
hole, “asking questions”, back in 2001. I climbed out of it debunking
all the crazy notions “truthers” had to offer. Except one. Intelligence
failure. Remember Emma E. Booker Elementary School? The fucking Pet Goat
reading? How Dubya was frozen after he was told about the attack on the
WTC? Well, to this day I believe he froze because he knew he had fucked
up, big time. And he was scared people would blame him.
The
American intelligence community had been sounding the alarm about a
possible attack on the World Trade Center for a long time, but the G.W.
Bush administration ignored it. And 9/11 happened. Now, parallels are
drawn between 9/11 and 10/7 regarding intelligence failure. But it
wasn’t really intelligence failure, was it. It was leadership failure.
It was ignoring the signs. In the case of 10/7, those signs were much
worse than 9/11’s.
Imagine
the FBI had intercepted blueprints for all the events that took place
on 9/11. Imagine they had solid intel of terrorists practicing ramming
the Twin Towers with commercial airliners. And imagine the government
telling the FBI to fuck off, because those plans were “too ambitious”,
and they were “pretty sure” that would never happen. Well, you don’t
have to imagine that regarding Israel and 10/7, because that’s exactly
what happened. And I am fucking pissed.
Netanyahu’s
government was warned, over and over, about the EXACT plans to overrun
not only kibbutzim, but military bases with a large scale coordinated
attack over the Gaza border, were shown the blueprints, they were shown
evidence of precise training exercises by Hamas, simulating that exact
plan, in preparation for 10/7, and their reaction was, “Nah, Hamas is
too weak for that, they’re just day dreaming. Not gonna happen, forget
about it.” Yeah. Forget about it. Who the fuck cares?
Netanyahu’s cultural Zionist pride and arrogance, his belief in the superiority of Zion over the poor goatherders, too dumb to pull off a complex plan, was the reason 10/7 was possible. Any other leader, a reasonable, cautious leader, unafraid of admitting and improving any breaches in security, any intelligence negative reports, would have reacted to the UNDENIABLY accurate intelligence reports by planning contingency responses to counter them.
But
Netanyahu and his minions just brushed the intelligence reports off,
like they were nothing, with the stupidity that comes with the fucking
arrogance the cultural Zionists exhibit. And now, the blood of hundreds
and hundreds of Israelis is on their hands. And when 10/7 happened, Bibi
knew he had to act fast, before people found out what really happened.
And so, today that we know, he will not be taken out of office or put on
trial for 10/7.
In
stead, he set out with the impossible goal of destroying Hamas using
the military, starting a war that will last decades. And he is in charge
of it, and as long as this war lasts he won’t stand trial for his
crime. I believe Kissinger would call it “Realpolitik”. Nothing to see
here. Fucking move along now. How does that make you feel? Knowing all
those people could have been saved, knowing that the Nova festival
should have never taken place per Israeli intelligence guidelines…
How
do you feel now that you know? I hope to God you feel as pissed as I
am, and decide to do something about it. I, for one, will demand no help
for Bibi, except DEFENSIVE weapons, like Iron Dome related equipment.
No more money to boost his fascist regime, too arrogant to care for
their own, a staunch track on every penny spent on aid to Israel, so it
ONLY benefits its people and not the fucking fascists who now rule them.
And
if you’re in Israel, use your anger to remove Netanyahu from office, as
soon as you can, and replace him with someone who will really care
about your life and the lives of those you love, more than about pipe
dream wars designed to keep you tamed, scared and oblivious. I am beyond
pissed with this shit, but I am also terribly sad… And this feeling
that all those lives were lost under these circumstances will never
leave me. And it hurts. Too much.
