The Wall Street Journal ran an intriguing story yesterday headlined, “Hamas Militants Had Detailed Maps of Israeli Towns, Military Bases and Infiltration Routes.” The sub-headline added, “Documents found on Hamas militants show scale of planning behind deadly attack.”

Nothing like this has ever happened before. Michael Milshtein, a former Israeli military intelligence officer and head of Palestinian Studies Forum at Tel Aviv University, confirmed “There is nothing close to this level of planning in any steps Hamas had done in the past.”

The newly-discovered plans suggest more sophisticated actors must have been involved. One 14-page document described in the article was labeled “top secret” in Arabic and dated June 15, 2023. It described a detailed plan for infiltrating Mefalsim, one of the small collective communities near Gaza (called a kibbutz), and taking its residents hostage. The document included maps and aerial pictures of the town, and disclosed intel that the kibbutz held 1,000 “civilians” guarded by a volunteer security force.

I expect it was allowed to happen to distract everyone from other issues (like the death of 8 year old Israeli toxxine poster boy Yonatan Erlichman from a heart attack) and to provide justification for stomping on Gaza.

Not that Hamas isn't guilty. The murder of random civilians for political reasons is the very definition of terrorism. Hamas must be wiped out.

Both sides are simply arranging for their own people to be murdered to gain sympathy points in the media.

It is war. It is not about people, or saving lives. It certainly is not about quality of life or freedom or any of those great ideals that Americans are used to hearing as reasons for war. It is about WINNING. Hamas hoped their attack would rally other Islamic terrorists to join the fight. Hamas wants to destroy Israel from the river to the sea. They hoped their attack would be the spark that ignites a larger Islamic war to destroy Israel. It still might be that spark and blaming Israel for the attack plays right into Hamas’s plan to defeat Israel.
