Egyptian Intelligence Warned ‘Something Big’ Was Coming, But This Was Ignored
Egypt spy chief warned Netanyahu of Gaza assault, was ignored — report; PM denies it
Gosh. Imagine my surprise. This is the 911 playbook. All that is missing is Mohammed Atta’s passport in the rubble of the Music Festival dead.
I mean, LITERALLY, the same people that did 911, did this. The EXACT same people. The exact same network.
This shows you how small this parasite is and it is already being exposed.
Egypt spy chief warned Netanyahu of Gaza assault, was ignored — report; PM denies it
Abbas Kamel, the powerful head of Egyptian intelligence, warned Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu 10 days before the attack, Ynet reports.
Kamel warned Israel that “something unusual, a terrible operation” was about to take place around Gaza.
Kamel was reportedly aghast at Netanyahu’s passivity upon hearing the report.
Egyptian sources tell Ynet that Netanyahu responded that IDF forces were focused on fighting terror in the West Bank, where deadly terror attacks against Israel were being carried out.
Netanyahu’s office calls the Ynet report “a lie.”
Egyptian Intelligence Warned ‘Something Big’ Was Coming, But This Was Ignored: Israeli Media
Egypt is trying to have a “told ya so” moment, as on Monday the government said that Egyptian intelligence tried to repeatedly communicate to Israel that ‘something big’ was coming, prior to the massive jihadist militant attack out of Gaza which killed hundreds of Israelis.
A top Egyptian official was cited in Israeli media as saying, “Egypt cautioned about the situation’s escalation, but unfortunately, these warnings were disregarded by Israel.”
The official said the warning communicated to the Israeli government was that “something big” was in the planning stages, but didn’t elaborate further.
Egypt frequently plays the role of mediator between Hamas and Israeli authorities, so this fresh statement is being taken seriously by Israeli pundits.
According to more via The Times of Israel:
“We have warned them an explosion of the situation is coming, and very soon, and it would be big. But they underestimated such warnings,” the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he wasn’t authorized to discuss the content of sensitive intelligence discussions with the media, told The Associated Press.

As of Monday, the total death toll among both sides has soared past 1,100. Currently, Israel’s military is engaged in its biggest bombing campaign of the Gaza Strip in history, having also declared a total ‘seizure’ and blockade in progress.
Qatar has said it is seeking to mediate, also on the question of Israeli hostages in Hamas captivity. Likely Egypt is also seeking to engage both sides as the situation continues to deteriorate.
