Israel military intelligence chief quits over 7 October
2024-04-22
[BBC] The Israeli military's intelligence chief has resigned, saying he took responsibility for the failures before Hamas's attack on Israel on 7 October.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said Major General Aharon Haliva would retire once his successor was selected.

He acknowledged in a letter that his intelligence directorate "did not live up to the task we were entrusted with".

He is the first senior figure to step down over the attack, which was the deadliest in Israel's history.

Israeli military and intelligence officials missed or ignored multiple warnings before hundreds of Hamas gunmen breached the Gaza border fence that day and attacked nearby Israeli communities, military bases and a music festival.

#2  No one in our Intelligence Community (IC) 'resigned' following 1983 Beirut barracks bombings, 9/11 or the Wuhan labs incident, Boston Marathon bombing, MAJ Nidal Hasan shooting, Benghazi raid and AMBO death, Trump-Russia hoax, AFG withdrawal debacle, JAB mandates, Hunter and Ukraine Burisma, or the current border crisis.

Strange isn't it? Very strange.
