    Wow, Hamas is following doctrine as if they’d been trained by Navy SEALs. Did someone give them the Marine Recon playbook? They followed it EXACTLY.

    Step : Don’t memorize anything. Carry all relevant top secret documents with you.

    Step 2: Make sure you don’t die!! You’re going into enemy territory with top secret documents!

    Step 3: Make it back alive and with your documents so we can review and debrief. Those are the only copies!

    Good thing this is in no way propaganda to justify genocide, just like those 40 babies being beheaded that no one has seen proof of. Slava Israeli!

        Ah you got me there. They had the capability to plan and execute a military operation with many moving parts without being smart. Monekys with typewriters, broken clocks twice a day and all that. Probably why they died on their operation, too. Saw people with guns and started shooting, not realizing they were on the same side. Good point, upvote for you.

            Another great point. Let’s plan and draft up these top secret documents, and not train the soldier to the specifics of the operation, because we can just give him the documents to take with him. That way, while they’re driving their jeeps and motorbikes and shooting rifles, they can take time in enemy territory to review the plan on the fly. Hopefully that idiot can read, though!

              Part of it is likely that if they trained the soldiers in the plan beforehand, they risked leaks,

              Now, we know there were leaks, and warnings to Netanyahu that he ignored, but Hamas likely didn’t know that he would straight up ignore the threat.

              There’s also the issue of compartmentalization. Hamas operates in cells, because that makes them harder to kill in air strikes. They’re spread out, partially disorganized, and try to keep communication between them to paper or in person. All to keep Israel from spying on them.

              It’s not a stretch to think that the foot soldiers were handed these papers half an hour before they were set to go. It’s a sloppy way to run an op, but the op was mass murder and kidnapping, so I’m okay with them being less efficient than they could have been.

                I don’t think it overcomes reasonable doubt in this situation, especially given the widespread propaganda surrounding the narrative that hamas is killing children with no supporting evidence. My opinion is that critical thinking affords the benefit of the doubt to this not being accurate in this case.

          They weren’t all planners. You realize that some of them did the planning, right? And that some of them are not incredibly smart and can’t commit multiple maps to memory and maybe want to bring one with themselves just in case?

            I’m not convinced. It is more likely that Israel is trying to invent more justification for genocide. Throw all the italics around that you want, it doesn’t overcome reasonable doubt.

            The document is too prestine. It doesn’t make a whole lot of sense for a soldier to carry that where it could be taken by an enemy. Somehow they’re smart enough to carry out these coordinated attacks, but are too dumb to memorize their role for the supposedly top secret operation.

      I am sure everyone of them had a copy of the 6 page top secret documents.

      The pages serve to remind them: to “inflict as many casualties as possible” they couldn’t just tell them that, they’d have forgotten.
