Well, IIRC, Netanyahu was funding Hamas, so...

Update: YEP! I REMEMBERED CORRECTLY!

He literally let the october massacre happen despite having information that an attack was imminent

u/CheatsySnoops 1d ago

That, I knew.

And it's evident he used it as an excuse to annihilate Palestine.

Is there any proof of this except for people you've never heard of going "I told you so" posthumously?

There was a big piece in Times of Israel about the UAE warning Netanyahu and that Israeli military officials were not warned. Even worse, troops usually stationed on the Gazan border were transferred away. This story was corroborated by the NYTimes after it broke. Both papers are known for their generally pro-Israel stance

  1. Both ToI and NYT are anti-Netanyahu. I don't support him either, but it's important to acknowledge biases in the sources.

  2. Troops were transferred away because of a holiday. About 100 troops were moved 2 days before from Gaza to Huara in the WB, because of a flare-up there. I can't find a solid source, but AI says there were normally about 3,000 troops stationed on the border, so this wasn't a significant move.

  3. Israeli military observers also noted preparations for an attack, but intelligence dismissed it. There's no proof it was an instruction from above in the chain of command.

  4. The claim about the UAE warning comes from Ha'aretz, also without mentioning sources, and also very biased against Netanyahu, and denied even by the UAE.

He allowed Qatar to fund Hamas. He's guilty of it, but not as guilty as Qatar.

The same Qatar that runs Al-Jazeera and sponsors US colleges.

He also called for Likud to support Hamas, and members have been caught smuggling cash to Hamas.

u/chickenCabbage 1d ago

They haven't been caught "smuggling cash", Israel (under a Likud-led government) transferred money from Qatar to Hamas as part of a ceasefire deal.

That would be separate from the cash smuggling that happened.
