Failures and Blame in Israeli Intelligence

This chapter examines calls for a state commission of inquiry into military failures during the conflict, scrutinizing the motivations behind these actions and the influence of the Supreme Court on military strategy. The discussion reveals a complex interplay of political maneuvering aimed at shifting blame away from key leaders and the questionable effectiveness of Israeli intelligence operations. Highlighting significant misjudgments, the chapter raises concerns about the reliance on technology over human intelligence, especially in the context of Gaza.
