IDF elite intel officer warned about Hamas attacks, ignored - report
This is the response they received from him: "I don't want to hear about this nonsense again. If you bother me with these things again, you will stand trial."
A junior Israeli officer in the elite 8200 intelligence unit warned over Hamas's plan of a mass infiltration event and was ignored by her commanders, N12 reported on Thursday evening.
The officer claims to have warned for the past 12 months about a scenario that involves a mass intrusion event by Hamas, foreshadowing what occurred on October 7.
She turned to her commanders, but they did nothing. "You are imagining it," her commanders were quoted by N12 as telling her.
Last week, Channel 12's Weekend News program published new testimonies of female observers who served near the Gaza border.
In the testimonies of the observers, they tell how for months they warned repeatedly about changes they see in the field, which require special attention and raising red flags.
According to them, they told their commanders that there were training sessions, anomalies, and preparations near the border.
Among other things, they described how more and more people who had never visited this area suddenly come to it, how farmers who used to come day after day to work the fields suddenly don't come to the place and are replaced by others, and above all they recognize another feature, one that rang all the bells.
Those female observers felt that they were not being listened to and that what they were seeing was not being counted.

It's not misogyny, it's misandry I tells ya! The female office should have only said it ONCE, not a million bloody times like a wife. That would have fixed the problem from the get go! If they'd just follow the rules, there'd be no problems, but no, they have to keep saying it over and over again. Speaking of which, there was a good booklet out in the 50's that could have sorted out this issue ahead of time.

The ninth cohort of 8200 Impact, a program created by graduates of the IDF’s Unit 8200 to support ‘impact-tech’ start-ups, will place a special focus on issues of accessibility, diversity, and inclusion. The program, which includes several months of workshops, seminars, and events, will be accepting applications until October 15. Accepted start-ups will also receive a grant from Bank Hapoalim.

We pulled it off in Fallujah, Iraq, why can't the Israelis do it in Gaza?

Fallujah was purged of their rebel elements with an effective campaign that also allowed the evacuation of the city after it was completely surrounded. And sufficient time was given while also screening through the crowds.
i guess the Israelis just aren't as professional or effective as the Americans, is that what you are getting at?

Must only mean they let it happen like 9/11...
Checks out, as Israel is made up entirely of masochists. They thought about it and decided eliminating everyone in Gaza was worth letting the massacre in their country happen. Beyond their own children being slaughtered, they weren't comfortable having as much global support as they had.
They felt if they let this incursion happen, their merciless retaliatory actions could further isolate them globally and raise anti-Israel sentiment enough to reach the desired level of discomfort and difficulty.
Netanyahu sat down and thought, "How do I kill my own and then assure the world doesn't care in the end, while also making Israel hated more?"
