It appears that Israel possibly was aware the attack was going to happen and they allowed it. Regardless, Israel supports Hamas. They need Hamas so they can justify their murder and colonialism. I agree Hamas is bad, but the Zionists have done much more harm. Bibi should not be in office.
I would need much, much more solid proof for this conspiracy theory before believing it.
I don't doubt Israel had some unspecified warnings, but I just think it's much more likely that it was a mixture of a misguided belief that Hamas was more interested in political power than large scale terrorism, an assumption that any attack would just be "regular" rocket attacks like we've seen in the last years, incompetence of Israeli intelligence services, and an over confidence that the fence and Iron Dome would be enough to stop any attack.
Also, Israel doesn't need Hamas. Just look at the West Bank where Hamas isn't in power.
Agree though that Bibi shouldn't be in power.
It's a difficult thing to prove without a whistle blower fairly high up in Israeli intelligence. What does look very suspicious is one of the most advanced intelligence agencies in the world "missed it", and it took one of the most well funded and constantly present in the area militaries 8 hours to respond.
Israel has had a major PR problem as more and more people view Palestinians as people who also deserve to be alive. Letting a terrorist group in that region attack undefended is a way for Israel to play the victim as they respond by taking more land homes and lives.
Is there any evidence that Israel supports hamas?
You have no idea what you’re talking about. You need to stop this naïveté and ignorance.
What ignorant and naïveté?

Do you know how to use search engines?
That was literally 40+ years ago. Situation was vastly different.
However, Israel should have known that helping to create a radical organization may bring issues in the future. So yes, it’s their mistake.
That's assuming it's a mistake and not the desired outcome. They prop up terrorists, then get to use the excuse of countering terrorism to take over the rest of the territory and commit a genocide.
