So CK has a view many of us on this board does... that the original attack was definitely odd in its success and we wonder if it was allowed to happen.

I agree with that.

And I agree that Hamas chose poorly and that this war is a result.

eta... thanks for the quote text. I agree with what CK is talking about.

it's a messed up situation

I know hamas will kill their own people just to make israel look bad. I get that.

BUT it also doesn't excuse israel from killing little kids with drones and bombs.

I'm glad we came to some consensus.

But... do you honestly believe Israel is intentionally targeting children? Or do you believe that Israel is being too indiscriminate? Or is it possible it is unintentional, limited collateral damage?

I lean between option 2&3. Probably more 2 if I'm being honest.

There is a level of incompetence for sure within the higher ups at the IDF. There has always been a level of institutional push back against preparing against novel attacks, because the New York Times, etc. will read anything that the IDF does, restricts or investigates as a crime against humanity. Oh, and idiots like OP.

This was noted in 2014:
quote:

In the early hours of July 21, IDF forces captured a Hamas cell commander in Khan Yunis, southern Gaza. When questioned by the ISA (Israel Security Agency — also known as the Shin Bet Security Service), the cell commander revealed that he had been sent by Hamas leadership to Malaysia for paragliding training. The plan was to parachute into Israel to kidnap and murder civilians.

The prisoner also revealed Hamas plans to ambush Israeli soldiers with anti-tank missiles and even pointed to a terrorist sniper nest on a map of Gaza. The location: the tenth floor of the Palestinian Red Crescent building in Khan Yunis.


The soldiers on the ground were consistently reporting that recon was going on to an extensive manner in the weeks leading up to Oct 7, but what is the IDF supposed to do about it? Napalm the Gaza side of the border, just in case? Remember, unlike the West Bank, Israel has nothing actively to do in Gaza security wise, since those retards elected Hamas.

The soldiers were also in a typical condition that armies for centuries have been in: static defense where nothing happens for months and years (George Washington catching the Hessian troops unprepared after crossing the Delaware, etc.) which invites lots of complacency. The troops stationed at that location were posting selfies to IG with their location enabled, so Hamas knew how many people would probably be there, etc.

Never chalk up to malice that which can be attributed to ineptitude.

No.

Does that have anything to do with war factually being hell?

Why did you actively undermine a good question right out of the gate? And then you doubled down on condescending a-hole two posts down. Yay, you win? What do you gain from just being an a-hole at 2 in the afternoon? Or have you been drinking daquiris at the office?
