I disagree vehemently with the assertion that our IC 'failed'.You need to watch this:

Too many folks may have lost their own personal sense of right and wrong let their resentments and hatreds of Benjamin Netanyahu get the best of them.
Many stories published since 10/7 some women acting as spotters claiming the male officer’s superior to them weren’t listening to their concerns.
If so, why did they dismiss what the troops out there were seeing?
“How Hamas was able to smuggle thousands of missiles inside their secured walls.”
They make the missiles themselves I believe.
The Israeli villages were a few miles from Gaza - a quick ride by motorbike.
Asking the IDF to keep people living near jihadists safe is like depending on police to keep you safe.
People need their own means of self-defense. Bad people can bust in your door before the police can put down a donut. Police are a deterrent, but not a preventative.
The Israelis could put sensors by the roads near their borders.
Any large metal thing moving could be detected and an image of it place on an Israeli screen.
the Israeli intel and security chiefs Haliva and Bar have taken responsibility for breakdown. over the last few years under Lapid Bennett the IDF was downsized, apparently not to good effect. the inquiry should be interesting.
You need to watch this:
No, no, no! All the best conspiracy theorists on FR (see below) are sure Bibi Netanyahu knew about the attacks in advance and let them happen, killing 1,200 of his own citizens because he could then attack Hamas in Gaza. He’s just sneaky and shifty that way:
“Seems like the whole invasion was allowed so Israel could clear out Gaza.”

“So israel government somehow misses all the warning signs that thousand terrorists are about to cross their border, although Egypt warned them. But it all works out for them in the end, other western countries will take their wonderful Palestinians for them.”

Evidence, schmevidence!
“the Israeli military knew and sacrificing 1200 Israelis to end Hamas once and for all was worth the risk.”
Do you have any evidence they chose to sacrifice their own citizens, or did you just make that up?
“I bet they knew”
Do you have any evidence that Netanyahu knew the attack was coming and allowed it to be unopposed?
There it is! 9/11 and 10/7 Truthers unite!

“Like USA, a lot of traitors within the Israeli government, possibly to the very top.”
I look forward to any evidence you may have to back up this explosive charge.
Netanyahu has been relentlessly distracted by his own DoJ that lawfared him out of office, that continued after the Israeli people voted him back in.

Yes, it’s called being caught with your pants around your ankles and you need to run, fast!!
So, apparently you need to watch this, too

“I think it was allowed....”
Do you have any evidence of that or did you just make it up?
So -
Over 1,200 Israelis were brutally raped, tortured, and murdered and the IDF was asleep in their bunks, their command center unable to communicate with anyone, and the only roads in were blocked and the stalwart rescue troops stopped when they hit roadblocks - and you’re saying it was somebody else’s fault?
You should be putting whoever couldn’t see this coming/ignored the intercepts up against a wall, not blaming us.
I’m glad that you put that comment in-forum, because nobody would ever believe me otherwise...
If I had evidence, I’d be asserting, not betting.
“Do you have any evidence they chose to sacrifice their own citizens, or did you just make that up?”
They either knew or didn’t know what Hamas was planning. Yes, I made it up, only because in my lifetime, I never knew Israel to miss anything when it comes to national security.
