A visual investigation in collaboration with @WashingtonPost provides a detailed examination of how Hamas was able to breach Israel’s vaunted security barrier on Oct. 7, 2023, and carry out its attack.
This journalism is made possible by viewers like you. Support your local PBS station here: www.pbs.org/donate
This special collaboration stems from a reconstruction by The Post, with additional on-the-ground reporting and riveting interviews that present a remarkable picture of how, as The Post reporters show, Hamas was planning the attack in plain sight, and Israel was blind to its own vulnerabilities.

The correspondent is Jon Swaine. Reported by Jon Swaine and Joyce Sohyun Lee. The senior producer is Frank Koughan. The executive editor of The Washington Post is Sally Buzbee.

Oct. 7 proved that technology for guarding borders can never be a replacement for personnel on the ground.

@gandydancer9710 4 ай бұрын

No, it didn't. What it proved is that technology has to be backed up by robust rules of engagement. Saying your helicopters can't fire at armed men coming through the holes they've blasted in a fence unless you have confirming ground observers to sign off on a kinetic response is not that.

According to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, aid to Palestinians totaled over $40 billion between 1994 and 2020. No other country has anything like the UNRWA, which has enabled the ridiculous concept of passing down refugee status across generations to settled Palestinians and calling entire 50 year old neighbourhoods refugee camps. Hamas leaders are billionaires and have zero regard for Gazan lives.@@SungazerDNB

It was a luxury of modern times that you could expect raiders on villages and cities to not come after a settlement with no wall. The national wall matters, but every settlement in the world now needs at least a palisade if not a construction in concentric walls like a medieval castle. It was not an accident that the building of castles was necessary, the only thing that offered protection against viking raids was a stone wall.

I lived in Nachal Oz for 4 years. It was obvious to me the fence was more theater than an effective barrier. A single regiment of good infantry at 4 or 5 bases on the border would have stopped the attack in one hour. The IDF has some of the best infantry in the world. None of the front line bases were ever properly maned, built for defense or guarded. One has to go all the way back to the French army of 1940 to equal the incompetence shown by the IDF on October 7th. No effective forces at the border and a 18 hour response time in a tiny country means lack of intellect and realistic planning at the top. The IDF should be able to put an armored division anywhere in the country in an hour an a half. You only need two divisions on alert to do that. That seem like a minimum when you have hostile armies on 3 borders.

Plus the technical explanations, which were terrific. As an American, I wonder if we too don't rely on faulty expectations, over-reliance on technology, faith in human expertise and infallibility. I wonder if our own military won't be showing this Frontline to all their forces as a lesson in never assuming you're safe.

What provokes these ungodly attacks? Maybe the oppression of humans for decades, walling people in, depriving them of basic human rights and necessities, of dignity, of clean and ample water, of voting rights, of freedom, of prosperity, of hope , and mainly depriving them of possibility brings this on. Who else on earth needs this kind of "protection" from their neighbors and why? Israel provokes these attacks every day of the Gazan's lives. What goes around comes around. This will NEVER END until Gazans are granted equal and human rights. And this is not a "war". This is a slaughter of civilians, 70% of whom are women and children , using unguided bombs and eventual starvation and infectious diseases - all violations of the Geneva convention.

@nessunodorme3888 4 ай бұрын

They showed the Israeli justification for this "war" and barely glanced at the reality of what's going on in Gaza. If you're upset by the killing and tragedy presented in this video, how do you react to it's magnification by many thousands? The heartless slaughter in Gaza is genocide, carried out with unimaginable ferocity and cruelty. Denying food and water to two million people is, all by itself, a war crime, a deliberate attempt at mass murder calling for immediate rescue and the arrest of those responsible. But Israel is doing far more, far worse and, yet, The United States is shielding Israel from the consequences it has earned. Instead, it helps Israel paint itself as the victim. That is the reality.

I'm confused. When they talk about snipers coming in the night and going to the roof to attack other positions, the IDF does the exact same thing to the Palestinians in the West Bank? Of course, the IDF hasn't taken that many lives in a single day, but every day regular civilians in the West Bank are shot by the IDF or settlers in the tens. Far more than 10,000 Palestinians had been killed that way since the occupation of the West Bank from the 70s. Why aren't showing the other side too? What about those killed in the Nakba? I would suggest watching also the documentary "Tantura" (that is available in vary streaming services). IDF who served in 1948 tell the stories of what they did then to the Palestinian population - some of them regretting their actions while others brushed it off as "something that happened and you just move on"

The fence has the same limitations of any fixed position or wall. Through out the world wars and other conflicts it has been proven time and again that these can not stop a motivated and well armed force. This is why mobile armor or overwhelming infantry and artillery are the only real solutions to stopping an advance. If the enemy breaches one tiny spot they flow through that spot and in moments the wall becomes the property of the enemy. If you have mobility your force can quickly converge on any attack point or if necessary absorb the attack and give some ground while still maintaining the barrier. Major strategic mistake to think that an unmanned wall can stop a fighting force. It never has and it never will.

That's a complete falsehood. The Palestinians repeatedly rejected a two state solution with Arafat walking out the last time. There is NO "open air prison". The Palestinians were given billions of dollars by Qatar and other countries over the years only to use it to dig terror tunnels and buy war weapons. All Palestinians have collective accountability for electing Hamas terrorists. The Palestinians want the destruction of Israel not a negotiated land settlement. The Palestinians started the war. Now Israel and the West will finish it. None of the other Arab countries want anything to do with the Palestinian terrorists. Gaza will be leveled and annexed to Israel. It's now West Israel. The Palestinians will be displaced eventually to other Arab countries as new Israeli settlements are built in Gaza. The way it should have been done in 2005. The Palestinians have forfeited any possibility of peaceful coexistence with Israel. They started the massacre and still hold hostages which is an international war crime.

Israel is not occupying anything. Israel was never and has never been indigenous Arab land. Look at a map of Arabia; Israel is not there. The term "Palestinian" is false, recently made up for political purposes. The PLO invented the term "Palestinian" in the 1960s. It is utterly bogus. Walid Shoebat, a former Muslim terrorist who at that time lived in the area that became known as the "West Bank," (another invented term) said "how can I go to bed as a Jordanian one day, and wake up the next day as a Palestinian?" Then-PLO Executive Committee member Zahir Muhsein, in a 1977 interview, said: "The Palestinian people does not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity. In reality there is no difference between Jordanians, Syrians and Lebanese. Only for our political and tactical reasons do we speak today about the existence of a Palestinian people, since the Arab national interests demand that we posit the existence of a distinct ‘Palestinian people,’ to oppose Zionism.” There are many, many more quotes like that. 60 years ago, there was no term "Palestinian" to refer to Arabs living in Israel. Jews have been living in Israel for thousands of years continuously. When the British mandate was rolling to a close early in the 20th century, they sought to give land to both Jews and Arabs. The Jews accepted every offer. The Arabs turned down every one. The day that Israel began on its own rather small part of the British mandate area, and only on the part given to Israel, they were attacked by six Arabs countries who swore to push them into the sea. That failed. Five Arab countries tried again in 1967. That failed spectacularly. Then an Egyptian-led coalition of five countries in 1973 that initially succeeded, but ultimately failed. Every attempt at handing an Arab state to the so-called "Palestinians" has been turned down by the "Palestinians". That includes several before 1948, again in 1948, and again in 1998, and 2000, and 2008. Every time the "Palestinians" say no, demanding every inch of Israel, and the end of the Jews - at a minimum those living in Israel, although some call for the death of every Jew worldwide. Israel offered Gaza to Egypt many times in the past. Egypt refuses to take it. Israel left Gaza completely in 2005, and pushed to help establish it at as a peaceful home for the Gazans, aid included. Instead Hamas took over, and turned it into a terrorist nest, attacking civilians mostly in Israel, but also in Egypt. That is when both Egypt and Israel erected a separation for the protection of their own respective civilians. Note that Egypt and Jordan were among the countries that had previously declared war against and attacked Israel. Israel has always offered peace to any Arab or Muslim country that wanted it. Egypt accepted in 1978/1979, and Israel gave back the entire Sinai desert, captured from Egypt five years earlier. Israel and Egypt currently have a very good working relationship. Jordan accepted a peace deal in 1994. Since then they have a cold peace with Israel, but peace it still is. Note that Israel made peace three years ago with Bahrain, Oman, and the UAE, and was coming very close to making peace with Saudi Arabia, a country which had attacked Israel many times (1948, 1967, and 1973). It was this outbreak of peace with the Sunni world (85% of Muslims) that caused Iran-backed Hamas (all of whom are Shia) to attack Israel. Also note that the "Palestinians" have been in and out of many Muslim countries over the years, and have fomented upheaval and war in all of them, leading to their expulsion. They nearly overthrew Jordan, so Jordan killed 2,000 and expelled 30,000 "Palestinians". Beirut was once called the "Paris of the Middle East", until 1975 that is, when the "Palestinians" turned it into a civil-war torn hellhole. Kuwait recently kicked out over 100,000 "Palestinians". The Syrian civil war has been about Assad (truly an evil man) trying to get rid of his "Palestinian" problem. Asaad has killed hindreds of thousands of them; the world pays no attention. I hope you find this useful.

@@sleddy01 They got Gaza in 2005 when Israel left it taking out 10,000 jews, then they elected Hamas, started shooting rockets at Israel which caused Israel to have a siege so that they won't stock up on rockets, something that failed. Maybe if they had chosen peace and stopped shooting rockets they would not have been sieged

Stop using comparisons like that. It deminishes the suffering of others, which is not necessary to validate another one's suffering. Concentration camps do not have cars, schools, an elected government, underground tunnels... Yes the situation in Gaza is dire (BOTH Israel and Hamas are responsible), but it's not a KZ of the 3rd Reich, it is not a goulag, it is not where Uyguhrs are living.

That's a simple but inconvenient answer. It's U.S. foreign policy. When the U.S. feels it has the right and duty to steal and plunder another nations resources and destroy those nations in the process, that makes for a ton of refugees, asylum seekers and immigrants.

I don’t blame anyone from coming here when the government is enticing them to come. But it is undeniable that a massive influx of unskilled poor will destroy this country as we know it. Vast areas of it are already indistinguishable from a third world country. The plan is to destroy the West so that “they” can implement a one world government. See through it. It’s right in front of you.

Since 1994 40 billion USD. Had Israel freezed them knowing it won't benefit end user, Israel deliberately allowed cement and TMTs which Hamas now used to build tunnels and wage warfare.
