"...it seems inconceivable that the Mossad had no prior knowledge of Hamas’s plans and that hundreds of Hamas fighters were able to cross one of the most militarized borders on the planet"
Yes. And accepting the raw implausibility of this not being to some extent an inside job means automatically entertaining a host of ugly but logical assumptions about why and what's next.
Americans and Israelis share this in common: we live under a government that will permit its own citizens to be slaughtered in order to advance the private agendas of psychopathic elites.
My immediate neighbor in Colorado splits his time between the U.S. (he's a retired dentist) and Costa Rica, where he co-owns a time-share. He says that Israelis have been heading for Costa Rica in greater numbers for years, and all of them blame Bibi.
My neighbor is Jewish and if he wanted to he could live the rest of his life either here or in Israel. He'd rather spend almost all of it in Costa Rica. where he's not even a citizen, and would probably flee and never come back if not for his kids and grandkids. This is a guy who was a persona non grata when he retired because he too often called out "the science" in his own realm, like questioning whether putting mercury in people's mouths was all that wise. He has believed for years that doctors are the leading cause of death in the U.S., so he was well prepared to avoid the mRNA injection-carnival.
I feel like if we put a 1-10 scale of Jew love to Jew hatred (1 being “they are the chosen people and to oppose them in any way is to oppose God Himself” and 10 being “Hitler was right”), even the most extreme people are at most a 2 or a 9. Yet to say anything even slightly critical of Israel will get you labeled a 10 by one crowd, and to push back on some actually kinda bad Jew hate will get you called a 1 by the other crowd.
I appreciate that you walk that line right down the 4-6 sensible range. Also, you acknowledge that there’s not a monolithic “THE JEWS”, and that some groups of Jews probably deserve the 1-2 response, and others deserve the 9-10 response :P
Thanks for listening and for the feedback! The same dynamic really applies with white people generally or the USA -- I get why the people of countries where our CIA and State Department have engaged in dirty tricks resent America, and of course there is a distinction between regular Americans (many of us hate what our government has done too) and the ruling elites who actually have a hand in directing our government's foreign subversive policies -- and I see the same pattern holds with other groups, including Jews. No matter the group, the elites promote a mood of "we're all in this together" and "they're attacking *all* of us because they hate us" mentality, but the loyalty only goes one way, and they promote that mood only in order to benefit themselves and then to use the non-elites as a human shield to protect themselves from the consequences of their schemes. That pattern describes the USA, describes the British Empire, describes Israel, and describes any demographic with an elite whose interests become decoupled from the regular people; and in today's global economy, the elites pretty much always have interests that are decoupled from the regular people, no matter which group you're talking about. It doesn't mean that there aren't real differences between demographics, but the way conflicts happen today is almost never organic; instead it is the result of elites promoting their own interests at the expense of everyone else, including the non-elites among their own people.

Excellent post.
Orthodox jew here and it really annoys me when we get blamed for Soros and the other left- wingers.
We hate them more then you do.
I can only imagine. Of course, I feel similarly about AWFLs who love licking BLM rioters' boots.
Very fair analysis.
