Back when this was happening, my initial thought was "no way they didn't knew about this, they're allowing the incursion to start a war"

A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Start a war? No! The IDF even withdrew from the area before the attack, that's how much they didn't want a war!
/s
Yep. Israli governments have been pushing Palestinian terrorism to further their own narratives/goals for a loooong time now.
in der konsequenz wirst du also auch noch hervorbringen, daß die Shoah eine wie auch immer orchestrierte vorbereitung der UN-resolution 181 war.
Translation:
In consequence, you will also produce that the Shoah was an orchestrated preparation of UN resolution 181.
They weren't just warned, they extended the concert and moved its location so that it would be hit by the October 7th attack they knew was coming.
It's one of the most blatantly ghoulish acts of a government to sacrifice its own people to manufacture consent to ramp up genocide.
The fact it took this long for the New York times to admit what we all knew immediately after it happened and what people in the region knew about a week beforehand...
The warning, though vague, proved to be correct.
Reading the article, it doesn’t sound like one big conspiracy. The warning was not actionable: “something big is going to happen at some point”, and there were good reasons not to preemptively escalate: not wanting to risk a deal with Saudi Arabia.
Israels primary crime is not that they let this attack happen, it’s that they committed genocide.
Even if Netanyahu knew the exact method and time, do you think he would have acted to stop it ultimately or allow it to happen and use the attack as an excuse to massively hasten their genocide?
Right. This is the guy that said 9/11 was good for israel… on 9/11. He doesn’t seem like a man willing to waste an opportunity, no matter the cost.
Bullshit. When you're warned of an impending attack you double the people on the street and provide extra security at soft targets. You send out warnings to event organizer, especially a freaking music festival just miles from the border.
He didn't just know, he funded Hamas so they could attack
Stop falling for the trap, it's easy enough to avoid.
1950- "Hey guys, I'm pretty sure that if we attack ____________, there will be repercussions by ____________".
(repeat every month for 80 years)
I mean Hamas only existed because Netanyahu and the likud party was propping them up and had been for a long time. Or at least existed in the current form.
I'll go one further and say nutty yahoo orchestrated an attack on his country in order to precipitate the imperialistic genocide he's unleashed on Palestine and Gaza.
Israel admitted they killed their own people during October 7 and bumped those death numbers up btw.


He was on his way to jail before that attack though...
Let's be honest, there are always vague warnings, and there are always attacks, too. Thousands of missiles, stabbings, shootings, and bombings, attacks are always in the works and being committed by all.
who knew?
I found this 4 year old video and it's really funny with modern day's context
So the NYTimes took some time off from framing hamas for rape to report negative information on netanyahu there, great guys. But they are only doing it because Israel has fallen to 1/3 support in the US. Fuck you, die NYTimes.
