    9-11 was a failure of intelligence. It also led to easy justification for two wars. But I’m sure this won’t be like that. People will be reasonable this time. /s

      The news-media has been calling it “Israel’s 9-11” pretty much from Day 1. Kind of thought it was understood Bibi let this happen for genocide justification purposes.

        he’s a dumb corrupt piece of shit, but this is something that needs evidence if you’re gonna imply it’s some sort of obvious open secret. We did that for that war monger Bush, we can do it to bibi instead of just assuming and passing it off as fact

          The question is what’s stronger, Bibi’s moral fibre or his desire to stay in power and avoid prison? Because I am not that quite sure about the non-genocidality of characters like Ben-Gvir.
