The myth of infallible Israeli espionage is reinforced in books like The Drum Girl, where the left rejects John le Carré, travels through Spielberg’s Munich, and ends with Daniel Silva’s annual novel glorifying the Mossad. In Pegasus or Predator wiretapping systems, connection to Tel Aviv is essential as an indicator of quality. Israel knows everything about you by sending you an email, but declaring itself powerless to detect a street attack on its territory with Toyotas and party fireworks. The myth of the smartest country on the planet has been shattered.
The Israeli army went from being unassailable to aimlessly running Keystone Cops. The country that carries out the best kidnapping has unwittingly allowed mass hostage taking within its borders. He kills people kidnapped by Hamas in revenge bombs on Gaza. Dead, but out of sheer fear, Tel Aviv’s UN ambassador declared himself hermetic “so as not to reveal the plans” in the face of an enemy who anticipated his designs without the need for technological deployments. Republican White House candidate Nikki Haley mutters at a rally that “a country blessed by God cannot be destroyed”; Therefore, it is not advisable to wait for intelligence signals from Washington, where the congress voted in favor of Israel on the 51st. The State of the Union is determined by show of hands without the need for votes to be counted. Trump remembers that these massacres did not happen during his presidency.
The war was an event in which many different countries participated and Israel always won. The current stupor is reminiscent of the time when the Mossad pursued Arafat in vain to kill him, not caring that his entire airline ticket was sacrificed as collateral. Israel has never been interested in body counts or bloodshed. The essence of his legend was not to make himself ridiculous; gentrification has made it a laughing stock of its neighbors. The best way to understand the massacre is to stop talking and watch four seasons of Fauda, one of the best series in television history.
