Israeli military intelligence chief resigns over failure to prevent deadliest attack in Israel's history

The head of Israel's military intelligence directorate has resigned, the Israel Defense Forces said on Monday.

Maj. Gen. Aharon Haliva announced his resignation after he failed to prevent Hamas' unprecedented Oct. 7 attack, the deadliest terror attack in Israel's history, the military said.

"The intelligence directorate under my command did not live up to the task we were entrusted with. I carry that black day with me ever since, day after day, night after night. I will carry the horrible pain of the war with me forever," Haliva wrote in his resignation letter, according to a translation by the Associated Press.

Thank you. That does give me some context.

Based on what the public was told about Iraq, the entire war was based on a lie, no one has really paid the price except those soldiers who were killed and wounded, the higher ups escaped without being held accountable.

Before, during and after Iraq we were told it was all a major intelligence “failure”, in IMO it was deliberate lie to get us involved in war with no real plan.

The activities of October 7 are in keeping with Islamic Law. From Ali Sina’s book “Understanding Muhammad”.

p. 39 Rape

Muhammad allowed his men to rape the women captured in raids. However Muslims faced a dilemma. They wanted to have sex with their female captives, but also wanted to return them for ransom and therefore did not want to make them pregnant. Some of these women were already married whose husbands had escaped when taken by surprise and were still alive. The raiders considered the possibility of “coitus interruptus” (withdrawing from intercourse before ejaculation). Unsure of the best course of action, they sought the counsel of their Prophet. Buhkari reports:

Abu Saeed said “We went out with Allah’s Apostle for the Ghazwa of Banu Al-Mustaliq and we received captives from among the Arab captives and we desired women and celibacy became hard on us and we loved to do coitus interruptus. So when we intended to do coitus interruptus, we said “How can we do coitus interruptus before asking Allah’s Apostle who is present among us?” We asked (him) about it and he said “It is better for you not to do so, for if any soul (till the Day of Resurrection) is predestined to exists, it will exist.

Bukhari, Volume 5, Book 59, Number 459.

Muhammed did not forbid raping the captive women. Instead he made an asinine claim that when Allah intends to create someone, nothing can prevent it. He told his men that coitus interruptus is ill-advised because it would be an attempt to thwart the will of Allah. He did not say a word against the rape of the captives, and by discouraging coitus interruptus, he supported forced insemination.

He made even his god legitimize intercourse with women captured in wars, the so-called “right hand possessions,” even if they were married before their capture.

“Taking one for the boss. When is Netanyahu, the guy responsible for everything from 10/SIX forward, going to be kicked out?”

Exactly. Bibi should have taken responsibility on Oct 8th!

Netanyahu is irresponsible. Hamas successfully attacked Israel on Bibi’s watch.

What I want to know is why it took them 7-8 hours to respond to the attack? Just too many oddities about this that leads one to think that the attack was allowed to happen. Was it really this guy’s fault or is he just taking responsibility on Netanyahu’s behalf? Personally I believe Netanyahu was responsible and purposely allowed the attack so as to have an excuse to clear out the Palestinians from Gaza. There’s no way this would have occurred otherwise.

First of many heads to roll.

You oughtn’t allow spectacular failure without responsibility. See Afghan pullout.

I can’t bring myself to hang that on Netanyahu but he’s shown he’s capable of nearly anything. I’ll continue to give him the benefit of the doubt and blame his incompetence and Mossad’s over reliance on AI. Regardless, the Israelis need to take out the trash and get rid of him. He is totally comprised and a cancer on Israel internationally.

My goodness, you are finally placing responsibility for 10/7 where belongs, on Israeli incompetence. The buck stops on Netanyahu’s desk. The first step towards rehabilitating Israel’s international standing is to sack Netanyahu.

I’ve watch a half dozen interviews with IDF soldiers or other Israeli security agents all of whom have direct experience and intimate knowledge of the security measures regarding the wall. Every single one of them said the incursion wouldn’t have been possible the way it was portrayed. All believed there must have been some kind of stand down order that day. Netanyahu was ultimately in charge so the responsibility goes to him.

“Actually, we did find quite a few chemical weapons, in Iraq, that Saddam, didn’t destroy.
Even the NY Slimes was forced to admit that.”

You got a link for that?

Bibi is under attack, because he was trying to reform Israel’s marxist Supreame Court.

The Israli part of the Globalist deep state set Bibi up.

*********
Before the attack, Netanyahu had all he could do to survive the Israeli left, which is full of self-hating Jews, people who want compromise with terrorists, and defenders of LGBT. Before the attack, some of them were even refusing military service to protest Netanyahu’ effort to reign-in Israel’s dictatorial leftist courts.

Where was the CIA? Either they were caught flatfooted as well, or the Biden Regime had intel and didn't warn our ally.

The CIA is very good at terrorism and undermining legitimate governments around the world AND in the U.S. Real intelligence gathering is not their strong suit.

From your article:

“Instead, American troops gradually found and ultimately suffered from the remnants of long-abandoned programs, built in close collaboration with the West.”

Yeah the US were the ones who assisted Iraq in their acquisition of chemical weapons and/or their components when they were fighting Iran in the Iran/Iraq war. Then came back a few years later and tried to justify our attack on them by pretending Saddam himself was pursuing chemical weapons on his own. That was all US propaganda.
