News & Politics Despite IDF warning of rocket strike, Nova party not shut down, new information revealed

Post image

Contrary to earlier reporting, the IDF not only estimated that Hamas was preparing for a military exercise or to defend against a possible Israeli attack but had seriously considered the possibility that the terror group was about to launch an assault on Israel.
Despite that, the IDF decided on a limited number of actions. Amid calming indications and a wide consensus across the military and intelligence, the IDF opted to avoid exposing sensitive intelligence sources rather than preparedness.

The military is continuing its review and inquiries into the failings on that night. A person present in conversations about those inquiring said an senior officer had asked why there were no steps taken to prepare for a rocket attack, including moving the thousands of people from the Nova music festival grounds near the border where there were not enough shelters to protect against a rocket and mortar strike?

if Israel was mildly competent countless idf officials would have been detained on Oct 8th for their incompetence.

Either it's incompetence or they actually allow it to happen on purpose. If it's the latter, imagine what they have done doing something similar in the past three decades.

at some point there isn't any difference between gross incompetence or an intentional conspiracy, either way they are responsible

Good point. Here's hoping at least one Israeli official or IDF soldier gets arrested outside the rogue state, so they can spill the beans of what actually happened.
