Netanyahu is fucking finished unless he goes full dictator, which unfortunately is a very possible outcome.

Dudes been finished for what, 15 years at this point? He is Trump levels of bulletproof in Israel, and he's gonna milk this attack to even higher levels.

What this implies is really troubling.

More likely this was just general incompetence but yea... I wouldn't completely throw away the other possibility.

That makes sense for the rocket barrage, but what of the border and seizure of key facilities? Must have drawn back support and let it happen just to give a reason to finally glass the gaza strip. Monstrous if it turns out that is what went down.

This reads a lot like Bush planned 9/11 to me. Probably warned about it but didnt take the warnings similar to Bush not listening to Clintons administration to keep a close eye on Al Qaeda. Not malice, just incompetence, which would be par for the course.

I guess Israel should have started the day with their own missile barrage?

Netanyahu is f***ing finished
...in another timeline where evil people actually get justice. But in the real life this will be handwaived away and everyone will pretend Netanyahu is a perfect little flower.

The main question is what kind of warning, anything specific/actionable or a "watch your back" kind of warning?

I don't think he's finished, because Israel is transitioning into wartime mode. The next time there's an election it will be off the backs of exterminating Hamas, and he'll be judged mostly on whether he accomplishes that.

Maybe start by defending against that tractor busting down the border and letting in the marauders who slaughtered and took villagers hostage

This was likely a result of incompetence and a feeling of impunity and invincibility, not a conspiracy. They felt they had the best tech, intelligence, and defense capabilities, and the entire West on their side, so they had that ragtag bunch of impoverished rocket shooters under their thumb. They'd know about anything before it happened and thought Hamas would have to be crazy to try anything.

There was never a time in this that I didn't think Bibi knew and allowed the worst to happen with a smile so he could finally raze Gaza to the ground and fulfill his life's goal.

He is a lot like Putin in that way...It's all he has wanted and he finally gets his wish. It's his 'Legacy".

He isn't, unfortunately. In fact, the attack by hamas has only increased his public image in the eyes of isrealites. For years he was suffering politically.

I think the reason why Isreal was warned and did nothing was for this reason; to boost Netanyahu's image with the people of Isreal. And it has worked.
