Analysis of October 7th Attack Orders

For us, October 7th starts before six thirty.

I was a soldier in the mortar platoon of Golani Brigade's Thirteenth Battalion.

And that night,

myself, my sergeant, may he rest in peace, the three of us were

pulling an all-nighter. At five twenty AM, we're sitting by the radio so

as not to wake the other radio operator,

and my deputy battalion commander suddenly gets on the radio with a strange

message. "All stations, I don't know why, I

don't know how,

no patrol on the fence until nine AM."

What time was this?

Five twenty in the morning.

They were told not to patrol the border fence

between five twenty and nine AM, the exact time

Hamas was planning to attack? But in order for those

directions to be given, A, his superiors would

have to know Hamas' plan down to the hour, which

how could they possibly do that except from Instagram?

And B, his superiors would have to want to allow

Hamas to

attack, but that would be ridiculous.

And I'm not gonna believe anything like that until I hear the

actual order sent out over the radio that morning

telling them to stand down until nine AM, and

no one has that audio, and-

It's

right here.

Okay, thanks, Gary. Let's, uh, let's play that.

All stations are to hold their positions.

So in terms of ground forces in Orit, we don't have anything significant.

The brigade issued a directive for our forces, pending a situation

assessment until nine AM. No vehicle is to approach

Birma. I'll say it again, until nine in the morning, pending the

situation assessment, no vehicle is to go down to Birma.

We're in rear staging areas, a brigade level arrangement.

I don't know exactly why.

Uh, I don't know why, but all units, all units, uh, just don't

do your job for the next, uh, you know, four or five hours.

No matter what you hear outside, all right?

Do not go out there, 'cause we, um,

we don't want you

getting hurt, uh,

doing your job. So just stay there.

Don't do the thing

you do.

To sum up, this isn't the first evidence

that Israel knew,

allowed, fostered, and then exploited October 7th, even

going so far as to kill hundreds of their own citizens.

It's actually just a small piece of evidence in a

giant pile indicating that's exactly

what happened.
