~5,000 rockets inside and from Gaza is more than just a major fuck up, especially when you consider just how many checkpoints Israel has everywhere. Israel will pass intelligence laws, perhaps anti-encryption laws, and maybe the West will follow...Patriot Act-esque stuff. Simple fact is intelligence agencies are far, far from all-seeing, are often incompetent or stupid, and if people follow certain procedures and don't fuck up they can do a decent job of hiding their trail and behavior. Most busts happen because people get cocky and retarded, like the Silk Road guy.
Israel's policies towards gaza made it impossible to develop and maintain spy networks.
Can anyone explain the reasoning for a large scale invasion of the Gaza Strip with those 360k soldiers? Is it an occupation? It seems like it’s more a political calculation than a logical one especially when you consider how small the strip is (149 square miles). A giant densely populated city with civilians everywhere and an enemy with 0 concern for using them as human shields is a nightmare for any military.
Internal security. What would it have taken to get people to go out and shop if there had been 10 or 15 beltway snipers operating all at once?
