It's still hard for my real-world brain to be convinced of that, by the NYT's latest story indicating that Israel had knowledge of Hamas' plans a year before the attack was realized certainly adds fuel to the conspiratorial thinking...

Shades of the warnings the Bush administration had before 9/11, which fuelled similar conspiracy theories at the time (beyond the administration's sheer incompetence, of course). |
The attack has destroyed Netanyahu though, his only real appeal was he kept Israel safe, he is now the PM that screwed up and allowed the worst slaughter of Jews since the holocaust, has they allowed them in and then killed them all with a few dead Israeli's I could maybe see it but Oct 7th will see Netanyahu in jail
