i used to work at a place where they sent contractors to the ME to train locals on various technical systems. Your thought on laziness and incompetence is spot on. My friend who used to travel there had many funny stories about the halfwits and their stupidity. Yet each one thinks he’s the king of the world and possessed on total competence. When something goes wrong it’s always someone else’s fault. Or Mossad sabotage.
I think Mossad gets a lot of credit for what’s really the general incompetence of the Arabs.
These are too close together to be just incompetence. I’m running out of comedians claiming responsibility. I’d guess Mossad, despairing of the Biden klepto-crazy, is taking matters in hand with Bibi’s blessing, as his parting gift to the country. We’ll be seeing a lot of these “accidents” in the coming weeks.
Yeah, it’s good that the Mossad doesn’t get complacent, but I think everyone learned a hard lesson in 1973.
In a top-down patronage (corrupt) society, it ain't what ya know, it's who ya, uh, know. Nepotism and then some, on steroids.
