bullshit
Those Israeli soldiers must be antisemitic to criticize Israel or to imply that Israel has ever done anything wrong.
Did you watch the video? It was IDF soldier testifying under oath. Netanyahu had foreknowledge of the Hamas attack from Egypt and other intelligence agencies and chose to ignore it.
That was some Middle Eastern guy on Arab TV claiming to be IDF.
And he did it to delay and hopefully end his criminal trial.
all the anti-joooos are popping out of the woodwork.
An Israeli soldier, identified in reports as Shalom Sheetrit, testified to a Knesset committee (the lobby for reserve personnel) that his unit received an order on the morning of October 7, 2023, to cancel all patrols along the Gaza border from 5:20 AM until 9:00 AM.
Key Details from Testimonies
Order Issued: The soldier, a staff sergeant in the Golani Brigade’s 13th Battalion, stated that his deputy battalion commander issued the “unusual” order to halt patrols for several hours on the morning of the attack.
Location: The soldier was stationed at the Pega military outpost near Kibbutz Be’eri.
Lack of Command and Control: Other IDF personnel and officers have also criticized the lack of effective command and control on the day of the attack, which contributed to an unorganized response.
Ignored Warnings: This testimony is part of a larger picture of intelligence failures, where IDF surveillance soldiers (known as “the eyes of the military”) at the Nahal Oz base repeatedly warned of unusual Hamas activity and vulnerabilities along the fence for months prior to the attack, but their warnings were reportedly dismissed by superiors.
Calls for Inquiry: The testimony has fueled calls within Israel for a comprehensive judicial inquiry into the events leading up to and during the October 7 attack to investigate why warnings were ignored and a stand-down order might have
been given.
The existence of such an order, its origin, and its impact are major points of concern in the ongoing examination of the intelligence and operational failures that allowed the Hamas attack to succeed.
.......and raises questions about what exactly Netanyahu knew before the attack..........
Nonsense
You beat me to it. All I can add is they are also obviously Owens, Jones, and Fuentes fans.
I always believed that the Israeli Govt KNEW about the Oct 7th attacks BEFORE it happened, we are dealing with the Mossad, they are NOT idiots, they always know when something is about to go down, but that they wanted it to happen so that BiBi would be blamed and kicked out of office. Kind of like creating Covid in order to get rid of Trump
Face it Netanyahu is an evil man who purposely sacrificed a bunch of his fellow Jews to give him an excuse to take gaza. He figured they were all leftist hippies at that rave any way so screw them. He’s just an evil man all around.
jimwatx, nitzy, Liz, desertrhino …
Angelino97 and hardspunned ought to be along any moment.
This does raise a lot of question. I suspect there is some truth, some lies, some partial truths.
much more information and background needed before this bit of information is usefull.\
But of course, you can just read the headline and know everything.
Who gave the order?
you’re so stupid, it hurts. We are talking Cucker and Hamandace level of stupid.
Doesn’t this conspiracy require the palestinians to act like rabid animals to work? Oct. 7th should have been just another day, regardless of what the IDF may have done, if the palies weren’t depraved nutjobs, deserving everything they’ve earned since that day.

If you just read the headline and know everything you need to know, never mind.
