Haaretz earthquake.. The occupation created the explosion then ignored the warnings
The article reveals warnings received by Israel before October 7 regarding the possibility of a major development in Gaza, but the author believes the problem is not the lack of information but the Israeli mentality that treated Gaza as a security file that could be besieged and managed. He asserts that the occupation created the environment for the explosion through siege, settlement, and ignoring Palestinian rights, warning of Netanyahu's attempt to escape into a new military escalation.
Dr. Iyad al-Qarra writes in an opinion article in Palestine Online that what Haaretz revealed about warnings preceding October 7 not only opens the file of Netanyahu's failure but also returns the discussion to the more important question: who created the environment for the explosion in the first place. According to the article, Netanyahu received warnings about the possibility of a major development in Gaza, and security signals reached the Shin Bet about an 'earthquake' and a confrontational path. But the author believes the problem was not the lack of information, but the Israeli mentality that treated Gaza as a file that could be besieged and managed security-wise. He points out that Gaza has been under siege for years, settlements are expanding in the West Bank, incursions, killings, and arrests are escalating, Al-Aqsa is under continuous pressure, and the prisoners' file is stalled. He concludes that the deeper responsibility relates to an occupation that has lasted for decades, siege, and settlement, warning that Netanyahu may try to escape his responsibility through a new military escalation.
