#Israel #Hamas #WorldNews
They were busy tracking pronouns 😂😂
USA 100% knew Hamas would attack Israel. It was not an “intelligence failure” at all
USA was oblivious, too busy focused on getting Donald Trump.
I don’t think it’s just an intelligence failure. I also think the Israelis got lulled into a false sense of security when their Iron Dome was shooting down most of the Hamas or Hezbollah rockets. It’s like the Israeli military was focused on the skies, but weren’t looking ground level at guys on the ground cutting through or bulldozing the border fence.
I’m sure the intelligent people were doing their best.
It’s worth remembering that America gets nothing from its alliance with Israel.
The extreme right wing government of Netanyahu in Israel does not make America any more secure, they do not contribute anything significant or meaningful to americas security. In reality Israel’s apartheid policies have failed. Netanyahu is corrupt and he has failed. He has the blood of Israelis on his hands.
With time everyone knows that Israel will prevail but this will happen again and again and again in the years to come. In this case Mossad the much vaunted Israeli secret service failed. Israel was taken completely by surprise and this abject failure has directly contributed to the deaths of at least 300 Israelis and in the coming day it is reasonable to expect that at least 3,000 Palestinians will die.
There is absolutely no benefit for America in supporting Israel.
Prayers for Israel and our country
Brennan knows plenty about false intelligence.
Trump did this
Brennan is a war pig is a war pig a war pig he looks like a war pig and that’s because he is a war pig.
No surprise here… Hamas has been testing the Israeli defence systems for years, probing and learning from the UA, RU special operation how to overwhelm defence systems… The US and ISR knew this was coming, a preemptive strike by the ISR would have been condemned by the world, now it’s fair game…
This was a set up.
REPENT, BELIEVE, CONFESS, AND RECEIVE JESUS CHRIST AS YOUR LORD GOD AND SAVIOR. END TIMES ARE UPON US. FOR WE HAVEN’T SEEN ANYTHING YET. THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING OF THE BIRTH PAINS. KEEP YOUR EYES ON JESUS, NOT LOOKING TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT. KEEP RUNNING THE GOOD RACE AND FIGHTING THE GOOD FIGHT AMEN.
Israel! 💞🙌💜💙🇮🇱💙
Yes. Trump must have something to do with this and his blabbering about the national secrets. Look what you caused, Trump! Stop blaming President Biden for your outrageous mistakes. Trump’s allies are Russia, Saudi Arabia, North Korea, Belarus, Venezuela, and other countries’ dictators.
Obviously, he doesn’t want to stay behind!
God didn’t forget …
The germans were also caught off guard in during the warsaw ghetto uprising of 1945. Bet you the Zionist regime’s reaction will be the same.
*Israeli intelligence service being blind ?*
or others with ulterior motives – passing on false information – false information – or no information.
I smell a rat — there is no way this could have happened without the connivance of people in Mossad – the White House — or both.
There’s going to be a lot of firings.
Israel’s value to the US is its Intel capabilities. Seems it’s overvalued.
Ringland. App. For. We. Stop ✋ warring
Strike back , consider Hamas to be terrorists from here on, and blow up Irans nuclear ☢️facilities
Funny how all the muslims at least here were quiet when ISIS rose up, but now with HAMAS they all scream free palestine. The religion of peace
Fun Fact: christianity has by far the most amount of cold predators out of any other religion.
Who profits in war? War, like making people become sick and hungry ….is one of a big business
I bet theyre really surprised😳
I would say, follow the money. The payments from one group was sufficient to keep the other group in the dark.
Beware of your enemy especially when they’re in your backyard! Must be vigilant at all times. If you fall asleep that’s when your enemy attacks.
🙏❤️🔥🥰
Matthew 10:38-39
New King James Version
38 And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. 39 He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it.
Matthew 10:16
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
16 Behold, I am sending you out like sheep in the midst of wolves; be wary and wise as serpents, and be innocent (harmless, guileless, and without falsity) as doves.
Matthew 10:8
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
8 Cure the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, drive out demons. Freely (without pay) you have received, freely (without charge) give.
Romans 8:1
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
8 Therefore, [there is] now no condemnation (no adjudging guilty of wrong) for those who are in Christ Jesus, who live [and] walk not after the dictates of the flesh, but after the dictates of the Spirit.

Hebrews 12:1-3
New King James Version
The Race of Faith
12 Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking unto Jesus, the [a]author and [b]finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
The Discipline of God
3 For consider Him who endured such hostility from sinners against Himself, lest you become weary and discouraged in your souls.
1 Peter 5:5 Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. 7 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.
8 Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. 9 Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings.
10 And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast. 11 To him be the power for ever and ever. Amen.
2 Samuel 22:2-4
New King James Version
2 And he said:
“The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer;
3 The God of my strength, in whom I will trust;
My shield and the horn[a] of my salvation,
My stronghold and my refuge;
My Savior, You save me from violence.
4 I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised;
So shall I be saved from my enemies.

It seems the only way Israeli Intelligence wouldn’t have known about this is if HAMAS somehow managed to plan it without using electronic communications such as internet and cell phones. This is suspicious. I would say someone in the current Israeli extremist government wanted the attack to happen so they could have justification for doing a lot of things they desperately wanted to do but could not get away with if they launched the first strike. I am NOT a conspiracy theorist, but the only way this adds up is if that was Israel’s (or at least several important people’s) plan all along.
You don’t have to be conspiracy theories. Ur common sense should guide you to all evil most govt into to change laws get money you name it. this may even happen in the US with this illegal immigration going on.
It’s probably just another false flag attack, has happened so many times in history
Well now we need to give Israel $100 billion.
No one saw it came to my foot 🦶. Joe Biden paid for it. We begged Joe Biden not to give them the money.!!!
I find it weird too. It’s just doesn’t seem possible in this day and age. I just hope this isn’t a reason for them to attack and escalate the war they have going on and pull us into it. It’s a good reason to go to war with an attack like this
They should Republican politicians if they knew ….adout the attack…..like they knew adout Jan .6 and did nothing about it !!!!!!
How much of this is Trump’s fault with all those illegal documents he was spreading around at Mar a Lago? For all we know he could have sold Israeli defense secrets to Hamas. His grifts know no bounds.🤬🤬🤬🤬
This is Spiritual warfare
This 🎺 here is real
We all need to be praying for Israel in Jesus name amen
Ggghhjj
Most enormous lapse in Israel’s intelligence…..A lot of innocent lives were lost…Though Hamas will pay a higher price someone needs to scrutinize the intelligence failure from Israel
Just level Gaza and call it done
Iron dome 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
America stands with Israel🙏🏻🙏🏻Stop War🥺 Love not War🙏🏻🙏🏻
A failiour of of toronto maple leafs like examples indeed.
Israeli soldiers don’t know how to fight real men….they only know how to be tough by beating up and arresting young Palestinian children 😅😂😂
I wanted to wholeheartedly condemn the ruthless acts of Hammas. However, I can’t muster up the zest for it. My Jamaican Maroon forebears used similar tactics against the English plantocracy in Jamaica to win their freedom. This actions are celebrated to this day. So Israel, why not stop taking the Palestinian lands? Don’t you have enough of their land already?
This is what God created us for to fight and protect. Not wait on corrupt govts for help.
Why would we pay attention to ANYTHING Brennan has to say?
What is that smell?!? Smells like BS to me.
“SURPRISE” ??? Really?
So you think Israel is a peaceful neighbor of Palestine who have done nothing wrong to them and SURPRISED by this attack, or Palestinian got so much use to Israel brutality that it was never expected this kind of retaliation that it SURPRISED you, double talk, much of the bloodshed of innocent in conflict credits to US and its media, blind support instead of more or less fair solutions.
The Rothschild formula at work
Over 200 Palestinians killed just this year israelis. I think it has to happen.
It’s almost like they knew but didn’t want to stop them because they wanted to be able to go Biblical on them in retaliation.
A reason to finally push them all into the sea.
Nothing funny here
😢
Ask America about that one! 9-11, Pearl Harbour, 1/6….They were asleep.
Biden gave Hamas 6 billion dollars!
Wow… Wonderful drones.
Israel and ISIS same coin
Israel keeps making ‘settlements’ on land they don’t own. This cannot possibly be a surprise their victims would ger better organized at dome point.
Break through a wire fence, that was hard.
They let it happen

Impeach Biden now.
Tis no surprise yahoo met with Biden two weeks ago 😮
Swan event Palestine leader said on tv its no ones business what i do with the money Biden released
How do people expect the Palestinians to react after years and years of suppression by Israel?
The Israel NORAD went NOWHERE in sight
Someone leaked our iran invasion plan. That is why Iran had the confidence to plan and execute this war.
John Brennan….a muslim convert…Notice the grin, folks. I bet the CIA had their hands in this to distract everyone from the epic failure in Ukraine.
I think that a lot of these wars are created just to thin out the population too many people too many problems.
Kudos to the most powerful and smartest intelligence agency on God’s green earth, Mossad! 👏👌🧠💃🕺👮♂️
The republicans and democrats. This is what Trump’s republicans wants to do here in America to other Americans. HAMAS and Republicans are terrorists so are Israel
Glad they found a way to blame lsreal in that little segment
It’s like they let this happen. Complete failure. They have systems to stop this.
Benjamin Netyaui is Responsible for this, maybe encourage so he can be a mass killer again by killing unarmed Palestine people, stealing the land they have owned for 10,000 years! No pushback by USA, UN, NATO!
Finally Palestinians taking their homes back
Hamas misunderstands America & Israel’s evil plans.
😂 this administration just keeps slipping.. they need to overhaul this whole administration here.. this could very well happen here… AGAIN and then we’re back to chasing our tail saying that countries have weapons of mass destruction for a political agenda
STOP CLEARLY A ATTACK ON ISRAEL 🇮🇱
what in earth is the benefit of this “alliance” to americans? it only costs us billions and creates strife and enemies
the jewish people of europe left their homes and moved to Palestine. the people of Palestine did not invite them. They, the jews were illegal immigrants. backed by Britain. The jews then called it their home. Created a government without asking the people who lived there. This aggressive act has nothing to do with extremists arabs rather it compares to Europeans invading and displacing the indigenous people from their homeland in what we call merica. Not only did we invade and occupy we destroyed their way of life, wiped the bison/buffalo off the earth and moved the remaining indigenous people to camps and lands where those people could barely survive. For years now the jews and their “government” have herded the remaining arabs into camps and imprisoned them in their homeland. shame on america. shame on europe. shame on the world.
So one of the most capable intelligence organizations in the world with the most surveyed border on the planet just missed all of the intelligence for the biggest attack since Yom Kippur. Something don’t smell right.
Oh come on, it was a false flag, thisbwas intentional.
Air, Land & Sea. The Mossad has zero idea? Now that Benjamin Netanyahu has emergency powers judicial reform is a moot point. He can make that map he presented at the U.N. of Israel from the river to the sea a reality. DuckDuckGo Israel Erases Palestine on World Stage.
Bibbi needs distractions…
And why did it take Israel’s military so long to react?
This is the most awful news to hear! Why! 😢
Should we expect Iran will be attacked?
Israel has a right to defend itself. It doesn’t have a right to American resources. The fact that their military and intelligence apparatus allowed several hundred people on bikes, in trucks, and in GOLF CARTS plow through a 32 mile border while having a $25B annual military budget ($3B from Americans) is a stunning level of incompetence. An absolute disgrace from their leadership. Hamas must be held accountable, and also Israel’s unbelievably inept, dunce-like leadership.
False flag operation written all over this…
More like intelligence overwhelming success.
They wanted this to happen. None of the families of intelligence officers where at the music festival. Because they all knew this would happen.
Can you imagine the backlash from citizens of Israel if they found out that their children’s death were used as reasons to go to war and take over Gaza?
That is why Mossad, CIA, MI6 are all pushing the narrative that it was intelligence failure.
Gaza is 9km by 27km and sealed off with full air, surveillance and sea control by Israel.
This is the excuse israel needed to genocide its favourite target: Palestinian civilians and also Iran.
Hamus needs to go, so! 😮😢
False flag attack?
That was too big of an attack for nobody to not know anything, especially United States. So it’s not that somebody dropped the ball. It’s something happening behind the scenes that nobody is talking about
We need Trump
Brennan is a communist.
Its ashame god created us all and why can we all just get along in this world no ine is no different then anyone else we all are equals 😢😢
I bet the Terrorist in our own House of Reps, knew all about this attack!!
Don’t know about Israelis (highest numbers of PHD/ capita) but U.S. intelligence is probably checking on the American citizens.
What a shame all equipped with latest technology by US these thugs were not ready. This Israel Terrorist state shall be destroyed by people with less money, technology. Same as Afghanistan Taliban defeated US bare footed what a shame and embarrassment for these two cowards and terrorist states.
