U.S. intelligence agencies virtually disregarded Hamas and other Palestinian terror groups in the years following the 9-11 attacks, The Wall Street Journal reported.
Instead, the focus was on leaders of al-Qaida and the Islamic State, according to U.S. officials.
Mainstream media reports in the past several weeks have asked how Israeli and U.S. intelligence failed to discover what Hamas had planned for Oct. 7, when the group’s terrorists attacked Israel.
More than 1,400 Israelis have been killed, and more than 200 others were taken to Gaza as hostages. AP reported that the death toll among Palestinians has exceeded 8,000, according to the Gaza Health Ministry.

Better to go after conservative Americans.
” Israeli and U.S. intelligence failed to discover what Hamas had planned for Oct. 7”
How has US intelligence failed? Hamas is Israel’s responsibility not ours.
They are a much larger threat than islamic followers. Don’t forget though, those school board attendees are just a powder keg ready to blow...

How the Hamas Attack Took Israel by Surprise
Sultan Knish | October 31, 2023 | Daniel Greenfield
US “Intelligence” is responsible to keep an eye on anyone that IS or MAY be a threat to Legacy America and it’s Citizens, period.
Legacy America? You mean dual citizens who have moved away? Then their security becomes the responsibility of whatever country they move to. It’s ridiculous this article is trying to implicate some presumed American failure with what happened Oct 7. That’s entirely on Israel.
We should be monitoring ALL terrorist groups. This is our responsibility, not to be fobbed off onto others.
Not really true... there were several prosecutions related to Hamas until Obama.
The Dems fought the Benevolence International terror charity prosecutions tooth and naIL the whole time for example.
Yes we should be monitoring any terrorist group that poses a threat to Americans in THIS country. Elsewhere it’s not our responsibility. Is Shin Bet so incompetent that we need to monitor security in Israel too?
Where things went wacko was no one wanted to go after CAIR, not even Israel...too many political connections and even the Israeli policymakers were invested in the BS that it was just a “political wing” and somehow to be distinguished from the “military wing” of a terrorist group.
Anyone who leaves is responsible for their own well being.
You are correct about Obama, and you can add in both Clintons, with the Globalist Bush Family a close fourth.
However when ordered by a not Natural Born Negro Resident of the White Hut, to disregard Hamas, ISIL and CAIR you simply disobey orders and keep watching them.
You’re right about CAIR and Israeli indifference, you can lead Jews to water, but you can’t make ‘em think.
After all, parents at school board meetings are a bigger threat than murderous followers of a 7th century death cult.
Yeah. Let’s focus on school board meetings, Catholics and conservative parents. sarc
That means Bush/Cheney as well as Obama.
They were too busy going after Iran’s biggest enemy, Saddam.
You are correct, and I mentioned the Bushes in my post #13.
What an utterly perfect piece of CYA BS.
