Just to be clear: Pete Hegseth fired a full bird colonel with 23 years of service to America, which include multiple tours of combat, because he accurately described Israel and its politicians.
WOW!
Haaretz investigation is a MUST-READ!
The Netanyahu gov received numerous warnings - incl from the UAE's ruler 10 days before Oct 7 - that Hamas was planning an attack.
The ultimate source of the warning was Hamas' own Sinwar.
Netanyahu ignored all the warnings and took no precautions. He didn't even convey it to the Israeli intelligence apparatus.
But there's more. Immediately after Oct 7, Hamas offered to release all the civilian hostages - without asking for anything in return. The Biden admin was aware of this as well. But Israel wasn't interested, leaving both Hamas and the Qatari mediators baffled.
So much bloodshed could have been avoided. So many innocent lives could have been spared. But Netanyahu appeared to have been uninterested - and Biden, of course, never put any real pressure on Israel - effectively allowing Netanyahu to determine US policy.

@elonmusk@JaniceWill47400 Can you review the block on @parodyjeffx? I don’t agree with everything he says but I don’t think he deserves a ban. He amassed nearly 200k followers.
