I've seen some speculation about the intelligence failure in not predicting the attack being related to Hamas avoiding the Internet for planning, and even deliberately sending false info on channels they knew were compromised.

Considering the history in the region I'd assume there would be a lot of people with axes to grind... And see the (North) Macedonia drama for a clear example of a country's name being controversial.

Real international law comedy there. What's next, a Republic of Venice themed cryptocurrency? But I wonder what's up with the 2022 treaty with Antigua And Barbuda. A quick search shows what seems at first impression to be real Ant
