here’s literally an active military base RIGHT THERE

Practically the complete IDF was in the West Bank at that time, and if you have minimal staffing at a military base you really don’t want to leave it but hunker down, it getting captured would be even worse.

There’s no way the IDF could be that incompetent.

I’d say that’s a reasonable assessment. That Netanyahu and his goons are as competent, however, is a much more tenuous claim, or they wouldn’t have sent the IDF o the West Bank (to back up settlers harassing (and worse) Palestinians).
