Wow Zineb,

Excellent article, You tied all the pieces of info I had into a coherent thread of understanding for me. I was Hoping we (the USA) would be in on the operation, but that is mainly because of the 1979 Iranian Radical Islamist taking of American embassy hostages at the time, It has worked out for the best, Vengeance is the LORD’s!

Bless Israel,

F. T. Duprey

Yes, an excellent highly intellectual overview.

Probably over-praising Israeli multi-level penetration

Also President Trump portrayed as a knowing actor…doubt it.

No one could trust him enough.

Brilliant Israel …successful…Hezbollah just verified by saying it will refrain from attacking Israel.

Thankyou for a very thorough and perceptive analysis of Israel's extraordinary intelligence and military capacities - achieving all that on one hand while hunting down Hamas in Gaza with the other was quite remarkable. It is clear from the article that you're definitely a fan.

I would be interested to hear your appraisal of the events of 7 October 2023.

Where was all that intelligence and military capacity when a rabble of fanatical Arabs broke through a wire fence and ran rampage through a festival and several kibbutzim, unchallenged for over six hours?
