    The bigger problem is that they probably knew. They where informed by Egypt intelligence…

    If that is true, then they might have let it happen as an excuse to take Gaza in retribution

        US Congressional members with security clearances corroborated this, did they not?

          They didn’t corroborate that Israel let this happen as justification to level Gaza. That’s the conspiracy theory the user above is urging not to spread.

            Fair point. Though to me it’s of little relevance; for either they were grossly incompetent or they let it happen intentionally.

            Given the historical evidence behind the Shock Doctrine, I’m convinced that is what’s playing out here.
