• I wonder why Israel ignored the information that Egypt gave them, warning them about the attack?

    I’m sure an embattled, ultranationalist racist like Bibi, whose own populace has been demonstrating against him for months, surely wouldn’t sacrifice some of his own to create an opportunity like this… /s

        Hanlon’s Razor is about guarding against unlikely explanations, not discarding explanations that actually fit with a pattern of behavior. Literally anything can be attributed to stupidity if you try.

        Bibi has been supportive of and overseeing the murder of Palestinians for decades, and ignoring and suppressing moderate, non-Zionist Jews in Israel, but this one time malice is the less likely explanation? Nah.
