Politics and Arrogance — Understanding Israel’s October 7 Intelligence Failure
27 November 2023 by Larry Johnson

I think this rings true. It is the worst of “intelligence failures” because the analysts accurately and correctly reported the warning signs and their analysis was ignored. The reaction of the “high-ranking intelligence official” who dismissed the reports and analysis as an “imaginary scenario” is not out of character for Senior Israeli intelligence personnel. Arrogance and hubris is their M. O.

Like the USA had with 9/11 when pilot trainees who were not interested in take offs and landings?  Or “intelligence failures”, not to secure out legal visas?  Nevermind that the Southern Border is open for all manner of criminals and potential terrorists to invade.

Argh!

Why Did the Coverage Stop?

Why did the insistent coverage of Sandy stop so suddenly? Because of the stupidty, hostility, arrogance, and crookery of FEMA and the rest of central, state, and local governments. and the people’s burning hatred of them in NJ and NY. Such things must not be mentioned, nor the total failure of the Last Responders to prevent looting.

I thought that the Gooferment’s politicians and bureaucrats were arrogant.

It was terrible what they did to the victims of the Hurricane.

Then there was the insult that flood insurance would only cover primary residences. (Personally, I’ve been paying for more than 30 years and never heard a whisper of that.)

A plague on all their houses.
