Analysis claims October 7 warnings were repeatedly ignored

Original: Analysis: "October 7, 2023 was no surprise.... Repeated warnings, repeated inaction": Was the idea "to weaponize Oct 7 i

A new analysis argues that the October 7, 2023 Hamas attack on Israel was 'no surprise', citing repeated warnings that were met with repeated inaction. It asks whether the attack was then weaponized 'to legitimize something far more lethal – ethnic cleansing and genocidal atrocities'. The warnings cited reportedly include one from the UAE president. The piece is drawing attention and debate among commentators discussing accountability and the subsequent war in Gaza.

Why now: Ongoing controversy over intelligence failures before October 7 and the conduct of the war in Gaza keeps claims about ignored warnings highly contested.
