Not saying you're wrong, just wondering why you think that about israel.

Hasn't hamas taken credit for the 10/7 attack? Are you saying that the elected government of gaza (hamas) was complicit in an israeli false-flag provocation and subsequent retaliation on gazans?

I have seen video of several female IsraHelli soldiers who told the government that there were warning signs for months. The government clearly ignored them because they WANTED this to happen. Talk about a good “excuse” to level Gaza.

So who fell into whom's trap? I would imagine that there have been 'warning signs' of anti-israeli attacks for, well as long as there's been an israel. But, even if true, why would hamas comply?

Do you have any intel on hamas's motivation for the attack and its expected response? I suppose it's easier to plan the attack from a high rise in Qatar than in gaza...poke poke.

Well, we also now know that at least 2 or 3 of the "hijackers" on 9/11 were recruited by the CIA months before the "attack."

Note the quotes I use above.

And yes, it seems more of a cooperative effort than anyone 'trapped" anyone.

And it also depends on what page you open the book to when you begin an analysis.

I agree the 9/11 crap stinks.

I don't know if Hamas was complicit with Israel or not.

But it *appears* that Israel chose to be unprepared and non-responsive during the attack, AND showed additional utter disregard for its own citizens with indiscriminate retaliatory attacks that killed Israeli's and Gazans alike.

It seems to mimic the playbook that unfolded on 9/11 in which the U.S. government was complicit in the attacks and fall of the towers which killed 3,000 Americans.

In both cases, it's not only what happened before and during the attacks, but what happened after.

To me, it's a matter of "when someone shows you who they are, it's best to pay attention."

The U.S. war machine WANTED a reason to enter Iraq, Afghanistan, et. al.

It seems Israel WANTED a reason to go full genocide on Gaza.

That last sentence captures it all. Caitlin's coulda-shoulda-would completely missed the point. Genocide is what Israel WANTED.
