The idea that intel may have known of this, meaning Bibi Netsanyahu and Joe Biden or the people around President Biden knew about it and looked the other way would be simply reprehensible. I mean there was a concert of hundreds and hundreds of young people there who were the initial target. If they knew that that was happening. Like FDR at Pearl Harbor, looking the other way and allowing 3000 Navy boys to drown to death in a ship where they were sleeping as the Japanese attacked it. 

If BB looked the other way, knowing these people were about to attack a concert of young people, I would think it would be unforgivable, no matter what the outcome of the war might produce. Well, Judge, when the Israelis attacked the USS Liberty, killing 34 US sailors and wounding 170 others, that was unforgivable too. Did we attack back? Did anybody get prosecuted? Do we do anything in return? LBJ called the retaliatory forces aircraft back from the Taekondaroga and other aircraft carriers in the area. 

He didn't want to, in his words, embarrass a good ally at this particular point in time. So yeah, unconscionable, but it's happened before. So what's the lesson we draw from this? Well, the intelligence can be just a factor of US personnel or US intelligence upper people decisions. And in this case will you have Jake Sullivan standing up a week? Know, the Middle East has never been quieter. I spent very little time on it and we don't have to worry about that anymore. 

That's what he said one week ago. So it kind of is a stretch for me to think, although it's a tenable argument, that this was allowed by Israel and by the United States in the hope that they could demolish Hamas definitively. .
