Many, and not tin foil crew only, think Pearl Harbor was known about and allowed to happen.
Number 3 is the correct choice.
People just don’t want to admit the depravity of their own governments.
They want to believe the dirt they live on is magical, populated with wonderful and moral people.

The Israelis are a fairly close-knit society. It is a fairly small country. Most people know people or have relatives in other parts of the country. If intelligence operatives saw evidence of an incoming invasion, then they would report this to their superiors who would, in turn, report to their superiors. The Hamas incursion was so vast that many IDF posts should have recognized this. Hundreds and perhaps thousands of people would have to have been in on the plan. Up to the top levels of government.
And not one said a word to anyone about it? No one leaked to a family member perhaps in the danger areas? Each intelligence official has a family. And this family has family. The potential population of those affected could be vast.
And no one cracked the scheme to try to save his family or a friends's family?
Not one alerted the media? They would let their wives and children be slaughtered to advance some nefarious political agenda?
This does not seem plausible to me.
Absent some tangible proof, I'm sticking with number 2.
