    MI figures out what went wrong in Lavon affair - 55 years later Israel's plan was to bomb Western targets, make it seem as though Egypt was behind the attacks.

    Fifty-five years after the notorious failure of an Israeli sabotage operation in Egypt, Military Intelligence has finally gotten around to figuring out what went wrong. The answer? Pretty much everything.

    "First and foremost, this is the story of the failure of Military Intelligence, starting with the choice of targets for the network's sabotage operations, the operational planning and the superficial and sloppy training, and ending with the method of execution, which totally failed to carry out the pointless mission, which had no chance of reaching the strategic goal its operators had set: the cancellation of the planned British evacuation of the Suez Canal," stated the MI analysis.

    The Lavon affair - also known locally as esek habish, "the rotten business" - was a plan to discredit Egypt's government, then headed by Gamal Abdel Nasser, by bombing theaters, post offices and U.S. and British ins utions, and making it seem as though Egypt was behind the bombings. The thinking in Israel at the time was that if the British were to give up control of the Suez Canal, it would be left in Egypt's hands, putting Cairo in a better position to exert pressure on Israel.

    The agents were told "to undermine the West's trust in the [Egyptian] government by causing public insecurity" while concealing Israel's role in the sabotage.-haaretz.com

    Why do you think? I'm guessing you are a right wing christian who wants Israel to be destroyed so the '' king of kings'' can come back and until then Israel can do no wrong?

    Many people find this type of thing interesting. Our closest ally attempting false flag attacks against us.

    Why do you share this, exactly? Why are 50+ year-old covert ops failures worth remembering? What country is innocent of similar actions?

    And for the record, the link is:

    You suck at guessing.

    Were they our closest ally 55 years ago?

    I find it funny when Christians get defensive about Israel. They are worth talking about because it displays past incidents which could cast a light on a potential motive for other su ious incidents which happened around that time. It's worth discussing, what other potential things could they have been responsible for where Americans died. They are admitting to this because they killed no Americans. Why are you so against discussing a country planning a false flag attack against America and killing civilians? It's kind of curious.

    I am discussing it.

    You, on the other hand, are making speeches and ad hominem attacks to avoid discussion.

    Why did you bring this up?

    Was Israel our closest ally 55 years ago?

    What about non-Christians that deem your attempts to incite hatred and su ion based on that happened ages ago idiotic? Piss off.

    Why not just post in the LMAO Israel thread, saying you agree that Israel attacked the USS Liberty? That's clearly what this is about.

    If you read the post you quoted you would understand why I brought this up. You should save your 5 dollar words like ad hominem for another thread.

    I read the post; Are you claiming that Israel has committed more false flag operations involving US targets?

    Do you not understand what it means?

    Sorry.

    I don't know if Israel attacked the Liberty or not. But this is a seperate subject that is worth discussing. Though this does crossover to the Liberty convo as it set's a precedent of behavior.

    I'm claiming it's possible and worth discussing. Also, I believe you know what ad hominem means but it might be the biggest word you know so I was telling you to save it for other threads.

    It's not a separate subject. And it only sets a precedent of behavior if you believe they attacked the Liberty on purpose.

    So discuss it. What other false flag operations are you attributing to Israel?

    Give us your evidence for each claim.

    Also, I believe you know what ad hominem means but it might be the biggest word you know so I was telling you to save it for other threads.
    I was asking if you know what ad hominem means.

    Do you know what it means?

    I'm not making any claims. I was here to incite discussion. Maybe learn a thing or two. Isn't that the point of a forum besides posting pics of hot chics?


    Of course, an ad hominem is trying to discredit some ones argument by attacking a personal characteristic of them.

    I've already conceded I don't know of any other. If anyone else has any other questionable incidents they can discuss them here and then I will learn about them. Do you not understand this? Does someone taking a critical approach to Israel bother you that much? I'll just tell you though that the '' king of kings'' prolly isn't coming back man. Sorry.
