While we're on real politik, I have a theory that there's a possibility that Netanyahu saw this coming and let it happen to give him legitimacy to use as much force to go and finish it once and for all. Something doesn't add up, confirmed reports that Egypt intelligence issued warning to Israel, Israeli intelligence is second to none and completely missed it, you have a festival just north of the Gaza border, with no security or relief in sight, such a late response.. I find it hard to believe they would be caught with their pants that far down, Israel just doesn't operate that loose.Real politik.
Reminds me of all the 911 miscues, it's eerily similar.
