It is a revealing measure of the paucity or non-existence of Israel’s actual, on-the-ground intelligence network inside Gaza today (as in Lebanon in 2006) that the IDF’s psy-ops department feels obliged to launch thousands of leaflets and undertake frantic robo-calling and robo-texting in order to beg anyone– anyone at all!– in Gaza to become an informer.
Yesterday, Electronic Intifada spoofed into the IDF’s “Report-a-Terrorist’ hot-line system and had a hilarious conversation with the Israeli Shin Bet officer who answered the call. (HT: Laila al-H.)
Read (or listen to) the whole thing. The way the Shin Bet manipulator guy responded once he figured he’d been spoofed (took him a while… ) is pretty revealing. Basically, he let loose with a stream of Zionist hate-propaganda to the effect that there never was a Palestinian nation, etc etc.
So here are the ways to contact the hotline: By phone: +972-2-583-9749. By email: helpgaza2008@gmail.com. I’m sure they have operators are standing by to help.

Amazing! Just amazing.
That sounds like `Ali Abu Ni`ma himself as “Ahmad”, or someone with very similar voice and speech patterns. He’s a quick witted guy.
The article below paints a very different picture of Israel’s intelligence’s capabilities.

I would tend to believe the article. It’s based on facts, rather than a prank call by an immature twit who runs a racist hate site.
Meanwhile, Hamas is apparently concerned enough about collaborators that they are going on a killing spree of their own people.

Note that Hamas is engaging in EXTRA JUDICIAL EXECUTION. I know that this is a very important subject for Helena. I’m surprised she isnt up in arms, condemning Hamas. (Funny, I have not seen a single entry over the past two weeks that does not blame Israel, mock Israeli suffering, or demean the competence of Israel’s institutions. Meanwhile, war crime committing Hamas is praised for its “resilience”).
But Helena is only concerned with “extra judicial execution” when it is Israel killing terrorists, not when it is Hamas killing its own citizens.
