Going There

As much as it sounds like just another wack-a-doodle conspiracy theory, as much as people would vehemently take exception to it, I can’t help wonder if Netanyahu and others had the intelligence about the October 7 invasion and purposely sat on it, dismissing Hamas’ convictions and intent, and considering it instead to be a timely diversion from all his troubles.

Nah, how could he ever consider such a thing? But then he could swing into action, talk tough, and look like a leader.

Doesn’t seem to be working, if that’s how it went down (and it’s probably not).

The headline this morning is that people don’t trust Bibi. He’s damaged goods, caught in a maelstrom. But what is Israel to do if, in the midst of a war, they have to think about picking another Prime Minister?

Maybe such a step is called for, even needed, before more lives are needlessly sacrificed in the name of… what? Prolonging the agony on all sides and creating even more ill will and hardened feelings?
