In leaked recordings, Aharon Haliva recounts night before Hamas attack, lambasts Netanyahu for not resigning and claims high Gaza death toll is ‘required for future generations’
ed note–as always, a cargo ship’s worth of important info that every war-weary Gentile with a vested interest in his/her own future survival needs to understand about this.
Firsto, ladies and Gentile-men, as it is in all cases where a terrorist-minded Jew has his/her mouth open and is speaking, what he/she/it is saying must be examined carefully, given the fact that as much as they are natural born killers, they are in equal measure natural born liars, or as we like to say often on this humble little informational endeavor–
FISH SWIM, BIRDS FLY & JEWS LIE…
Now, having said this, let us proceed with our examination of what the terrorist Jew Haliva has to say here…
What must be understood right from the start L&G is the fact that all the ‘principals’ operating at the highest levels of the political, military, and intelligence levels KNOW that the attacks of Oct. 7th were as much a ‘surprise’ to Israel as were the Mossad engineered terrorist attacks against America taking place on 9/11/2001. Both Gaza and Hamas were chock-full of Israeli agents who were not only funneling inside info back to Netanyahu & co in the years, months and weeks preceding the attacks of that day, but as well, were tasked with carrying out those infamous acts that became so much a part of the gore and the lore of that day including beheadings, rapes, babies burned in ovens, etc, etc, etc.
Now, exactly why the terrorist Jew Haliva is on record saying that Oct. 7 was ‘much deeper than a mere intelligence failure’ is unknowable at this point. The fact that he resigned once things turned down Apocalypto Avenue may signal that he, in realizing the scope of where all of this was headed, got ‘cold feet’ and decided after the fact that he did not want to be part of this disaster when the vultures came home to roost.
Whatever the answer to that may be, the fact is that all of the anti-Zionist and ‘Free Palestine’ people, just as they should have done immediately after the events of Oct. 7th, need to finally, 2 years too late, jettison the delusion that they have maintained that the Hamas attacks took Israel ‘by surprise’ and that she ‘didn’t know’.
Had they been more shrewd in their argumentative courtroom tactics in the immediate aftermath of the events of that day rather than allowing themselves to get ‘caught up in the moment’ by swallowing the bait which the terrorist Jews who engineered that day’s events dangled in front of their faces about how all of this was a ‘brilliant victory’ on the part of ‘the resistence,’ it is possible, POSSIBLE, that the level of apocalyptic destruction that has been wrought against 2 million+ innocent people might have been mitigated to some degree.
Times of Israel
Former IDF intelligence chief Aharon Haliva, in a series of leaked recordings, said that the October 7, 2023, Hamas-led attack did not occur because of ‘intelligence failures’ or a ‘poor response time’ the night of the attack, but rather was the result of ‘something much deeper, spanning many years, that requires a much deeper correction.’
The tapes of Haliva, who resigned from his position as head of the Military Intelligence Directorate last year against the backdrop of October 7, were aired Friday night on Channel 12’s primetime news program.
In the recordings, Haliva is heard recounting events from the night before the Hamas attack, explaining why he chose to step down from his post, and speaking on military and policy decisions leading up to and in the wake of the October 7 attack.
According to the network, the conversations that were aired took place over the past several months.
‘The intelligence failure is something much deeper, spanning many years, that requires a much deeper correction,’ the former intelligence chief said in the first recording.
‘It’s not a matter of a personnel fix,’ he said, criticizing the idea that ‘if we replace the chief of staff now, replace some other officials, that everything will just go back to being fine.’
‘I’m against the notion that says, ‘It was just an accident, as if you were driving and punctured your tires, so you should just change the tires and keep going. Some people say that’s what happened to us.’
‘I say what happened to us is much more than that,’ Haliva continued, insisting that the whole system ‘requires dismantling and rebuilding.’
‘When I was asked, during events marking 50 years since the Yom Kippur War, whether I thought it could happen again, I said yes,’ he said. ‘Yes, it can happen again.’
‘I am even saying this again today, it can happen again,’ Haliva warned.
‘The night itself is not relevant’
In part of the recordings, Haliva recounted the events in the hours before the Hamas onslaught.
‘The SIM cards were activated as early as 9 p.m. on Friday,’ he said, referring to the Israeli network cellular service cards that Hamas operatives activated before the attack. ‘But the first and last phone call I received at night was at 3:20 a.m. from my assistant,’ some three hours before Hamas burst through the border, and that phone call did not relate to the SIMs.
When asked if he really was not contacted after Hamas activated the SIMs, he insisted nobody notified him: ‘They talked to the head of IDF’s Southern Command, who called the head of the Shin Bet.’
‘There’s a Shin Bet document from 3:30 in the morning,’ he said, adding that the document said ‘the situation is being maintained.’
When asked if he was woken up at night regarding intelligence of an imminent attack, Haliva maintained his assistant called him once.
‘She told me there was an event,’ he said, adding that she said the chiefs of Southern Command and the Operations Directorate were handling it. ‘If something special happened, she said she would wake me up again, that’s it.’
‘There are Shin Bet documents from that night saying, ‘In our assessment, calm will be maintained, there’s nothing happening, everything is under control.’ That’s not the point,’ he said.
‘I think the night itself is not relevant,’ he said, blaming the failure on the larger operational and intelligence concept that had been in place for years.
The former top intelligence official also argued that the security services cannot act on every intelligence report: ‘It doesn’t work like that. It just doesn’t,’ he said. ‘Do you know how many isolated reports there are all the time? Intelligence is one huge, crazy puzzle.’
‘If you acted on every single piece of information like that, you’d have to keep 300,000 reservists on active duty in the IDF every day,’ he argued.
‘They told me [former defense minister Yoav] Gallant said: ‘If only they had woken me up at night…’,’ Haliva continued. ‘I immediately said that even if the chief of staff had woken me up at night, I would say that I rely on the assessments of the security and intelligence service, and anyone who says anything else is a liar,’ he charged.
‘Anyone who thinks that the night itself was the main issue, understands nothing’ he said.
‘They need a Nakba every now and then’
Turning to the war in Gaza that has been raging since October 2023, namely the high Palestinian death toll, Haliva said: ‘The fact that there are already 50,000 dead in Gaza is necessary and required for future generations.’
While the recording was not dated by Channel 12, current Hamas-run Gaza health ministry figures put the death toll in the war at over 60,000. Hamas casualty figures cannot be independently verified and do not differentiate between civilians and combatants.
‘For everything that happened on October 7, for every Jew who was killed on October 7, 50 Palestinians must die,’ he said.
‘I’m speaking out of a message to future generations. They need a Nakba every now and then to feel the price. There’s no choice, in this disturbed neighborhood.’
Treating Hamas as an asset
Haliva also described a plan formulated after the 2014 Gaza war to dismantle Hamas, but ‘no one imagined implementing it.’
‘Listen, you don’t understand that there are much deeper things here. The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is at the heart of the matter, because Hamas is good for Israel — that’s [Finance Minster Bezalel] Smotrich’s argument,’ he said, saying that the far-right minister wants to dismantle the Palestinian Authority and let Hamas take control in the West Bank, as it did in Gaza after Israel withdrew two decades ago.
‘Why? Because if the entire Palestinian arena is destabilized and crazy, it is impossible to negotiate with,’ he said. ‘Then there will be no agreement.’
‘Who made the decision to differentiate between Gaza and the West Bank? The prime minister!’ he declared, placing blame on the rise of Hamas in Gaza on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
‘Why does he want Hamas, a terrorist organization, to take over from the PA?’ Haliva asked. ‘He wants Hamas, which is much worse than the PA. Why does he want Hamas? Because the PA has international status.’
‘Hamas is an organization that you can fight freely, it has no international justification, it has no legitimacy, you can fight it with a sword,’ he said.
