Gaza’s fate was foreseen

The reporters mumble their last words and communications go dead. Food convoys are being halted and people are doing all they can to survive by eating crumbs as they grapple with hunger that gnaws in Gaza.

At the face of it, Israel says its bombs are directed to militants but the truth says otherwise. There is the razing of schools, mosques, apartment buildings and refugee camps on top of the death toll of civil people running out of control. Tens of thousands of Palestinian civilians have been killed: over 63,000, according to Gaza Health Ministry statistics. Independent estimates put the figure at about 80,000. This was demonstrated through classified Israeli military statistics that appeared recently in the news, which revealed that 83 percent of Israeli deaths were civilians- hardly worthy of a reply. This is not a war on open borders, it is the obliteration of whole families- in their houses.

This was a foreseen misfortune and has been predicted not by the Palestinians but by the personalities who ran Israel’s security apparatus.

In 2012, Israeli filmmaker Dror Moreh released a film called The Gatekeepers, a rare documentary that profiles interviews with six former heads of the Israeli internal security service, the Shin Bet. These men could not be described as adversaries of the state; they would be functioning at the heart of its security policy and would deal with militancy. They had been involved in decades of labor developing the Israeli security policies. And when these did give their opinions at length, they were not justified by them, but were condemned.
