    Immediately after the attack, people were suggesting that Israeli intelligence must have had some clue this would happen, and speculated that Netanyahu’s government deliberately let it go ahead as a pretext for attacking Gaza. Now it looks like they did have warning but they just screwed up.

      It doesn’t look like they screwed up, it looks like they’re denying being informed about it, which looks like they’re hiding something.

      Since it ruined his judicial reforms which he’s been hyper focusing on, I don’t think it’s likely he knew and let it go ahead. Maybe he didn’t believe the scope of it, but I don’t know.
