"IDF officially revealed that it sent Netanyahu 4 different letters of warning about it between March and July 2023."

That's rather disingenuous of you Yuyutsu.
The IDF DIDN'T specifically warn the government of an imminent attack.
The IDF DIDN'T warn the government of an attack from Gaza.
The IDF DIDN'T warn the government of an attack in October. Indeed their warnings ceased in July.

All they did was warn that the upheavals over the changes to the court system were being viewed by the Arabs as a weakness especially since some of IDF units had stood down in protest. But all that was resolved by October.

The IDF had no inkling of the October attack and most certainly didn't warn Netanyahu or anyone else in power of that specific attack.

I know, given your fundamentalism, that you would be a believer in such 'prophesies' but they are usually in the eye of the beholder. Hint: Amos didn't prophesies the coming of Tiglath-Pileser, despite what the Bible says.

Dear Mhaze,

«Besides the Nazis are opposed to the Jews»

Nazis are those who believe, in thought word and deed, that their nation (hence the name, "Nazional-Socialist") is "über alles", thus all others are disposable and should either be subservient or die.

Not all Nazis are German Nazis.

The term "Judeo-Nazis" was coined by Professor Yeshayahu Leibowitz in 1982, himself an Israeli orthodox Jew: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKZtzmjm-FM

Let us take a look at why we all should back the
International Criminal Court and the fight for
global justice.

The link listed below - gives 20 ICC benefits. Listed
amongst them are things like - the ICC being a
global court for the powerless. A place where
victims of genocide, crimes against humanity and war
crimes can get justice and redress.

That it is - independent and impartial. That one of the
main achievements and pillars of the Rome Statute
is the independence of the ICC, including the
prosecutor and judges, from governments and
from the UN's Security Council.

That the ICC
Rome Statute carries with it safeguards against
politically motivated investigations and prosecution.

And there's so much more given:

Access to justice we're told, has been the new goal
of all UN member states. Through its governing body
the Assembly of States Parties, the ICC provides a
forum for states to share the future of International
Criminal Justice and to advocate for reform.

Each state has one equal vote.

Dear Mhaze,

«All they did was warn that the upheavals over the changes to the court system were being viewed by the Arabs as a weakness especially since some of IDF units had stood down in protest. But all that was resolved by October.»

The upheaval regarding Israel's court system was not resolved, neither by October nor till now - it was only shoved aside for a while due to the war.

«The IDF DIDN'T specifically warn the government of an imminent attack.
The IDF DIDN'T warn the government of an attack from Gaza.»

The IDF claimed yesterday that it did warn Netanyahu about an attack from Gaza. Netanyahu disputes it and Benny Gantz (Israel's likely next PM) called for [the equivalent of] a royal commission to investigate the differences.

The IDF never claimed that it had an exact date, only about the general intention.

«The IDF DIDN'T warn the government of an attack in October. Indeed their warnings ceased in July.»»

4 warnings were given between March 19th and July 16th - that is within 120 days, say 40 days apart. October 7th was 83 days later, so what you are saying is that Netanyahu believed that although the underlying conditions for the warnings remained the same: "since there were no warning this month, I think I will send the army home"?

«I know, given your fundamentalism, that you would be a believer in such 'prophesies'»

There were no prophesies, only professional intelligence gatherings.

As the letters mentioned Lebanon alongside Gaza, Netanyahu, to cover his tracks, conducted a month earlier a major exercise near the Lebanese border, preparing for a similar attack. Why not Gaza?

I think that Netanyahu knew of the exact date from his friend Sinwar and accordingly made sure that the IDF near Gaza remains on the lowest possible alert level, releasing most soldiers on a Sabbath/holiday leave.

Kenneth Roth, former executive director of Human
Rights Watch (1993 - 2022) is visiting professor
at Princeton's School of Public and International
Affairs has written an article for The Guardian in
which he asks why Israel is being defended despite
its war crimes?

We're told that it is disappointing, but not surprising
to read the response's to the ICC's accusations in an
attempt to defend Israel despite its war crimes.

We're told that the responses have been made with
predictable vitriol. - even questioning the Court's
Chief Prosecutor's impartiality despite his having
issued arrest warrants for the leaders of both sides
of the conflict, and his having vast experience in
criminal law.
