At the very least, Trump would NOT have kept secret from Israel the (likely) OBVIOUS build-up going on in Gaza before the strike.
One does now have to ask just why was Israel kept so off-guard. Could it be due the OBVIOUS hatred that the Biden Regime has toward Netanyahu (who they hate only slightly less than Putin)? I sure hope not, as it has a huge number of civilian lives.
You make an interesting point. You have to think the U.S. IC knew this was coming. I’m surprised the Israelis didn’t also have their own intelligence.
I’m surprised they were caught off guard as Israel is supposed to have the best intelligence. How did so many Hamas manage to infiltrate those villages? I thought they had a secure border.
We don't know that they were caught off guard. Either way, it's obvious who the aggressors are, who must be dealt with. The only question now is how deep are the ties of Hamas to others like Iran and Russia.
