arrogance plays a role here:
israeli officials knew indeed that something was going to happen some day.
they had been warned by egypt and a number of other countries/ officials.
yet, given decades of denigration, disrespect and disdain for palestinians,
the official israeli reaction to planned palestinian attacks was:
"palestinians are way too stupid to pull off any major disruptive action."
the arrogance of settler colonists.
now that their very blatant mistake is obvious and the world saw
how vulnerable israel is, despite all its assurances to the contrary,
there is the shame of having been exposed.
and shame is hard, almost unbearable to stomach.
according to too many people in high places it calls for bitter revenge.
[as to US govt agencies recruiting economically challenged,
gullible guys to carry out supposedly islamist attacks in the US,
'the intercept' made me aware of that state of affairs.]
