#1 Iran helped plan Hamas attack on Israel that killed at least 700 and gave the green light for the assault at a meeting in Beirut last Monday: Islamic Revolutionary Guards devised land, air and sea assault that has left Middle East on brink of all-out war

#2 I assume IRGC planned a mass hostage taking, not mass murder orgy.

#3 This must be wrong. Our Secretary of State just assured us that this was in no way possible.

Grom,

I'm wondering if this wasn't a situation where they didn't expect to be this successful - they sent X many guys over expecting Y to actually get in and Z to actually pull off their specific mission. The utter failure - and that's exactly what it was - of the Israeli army, police, and intel - meant that if their goal was a couple dozen dead and a bunch of hostages intended to keep the Israelis from going old Testament on them, they only guaranteed that this time it's gonna hurt.

#6 /\ Entirely possible Mike. Exploitation of a successful attack.

#7 As I mentioned on another thread; perhaps coverage in some sectors was being monitored by someone other than the IDF. Just a....wild arsed what if.
