    Their supporters still will say they have the most sophisticated weaponry and guidance systems. These attacks are purposeful.

        If viewed like a ‘total war’, attacking every possible advantage the enemy may have whether civilian or military, it does makes sense from a historic military doctrine standpoint. The IDF believes they are immune to judgement and prosecution, and their goal is to destroy the Palestinian nation and people. They believe they are righteous, supported by God, so any attack that has a chance to weaken the Palestinian people is an attack they will take.

        Overall though I believe these attacks have weakened support for Israel so much that they have a greater chance of being defeated than anytime I’ve seen before this conflict.

      They also have one of the most sophisticated communications technology. They had spies everywhere. 2,900 people attacked and they didn’t have one spy to tell them a date…

      According to The New York Times, Israeli officials had obtained detailed attack plans more than a year before the attack. The document described operational plans and targets, including the size and location of Israeli forces, and raised questions in Israel about how Hamas learned these details.

      The Times reported, “Hamas followed the blueprint with shocking precision.”

      In July 2023, a member of the Israeli signals intelligence unit alerted her superiors that Hamas was conducting preparations for the assault, saying, “I utterly refute that the scenario is imaginary”. An Israeli colonel ignored her concerns.

      They allowed this to happen. They wanted a reason to attack and take what’s left of Palestine.
