An executive in an American military contractor that is providing data analytics to the IDF joking about war crimes. This attack could not have been planned and executed so successfully without Palantir's services and they are gleefully celebrating their involvement without explicitly saying so.

You know I realize in the grand scheme of things this is kind of a weird/sad thing to fixate on but I can't get it out of my head that in like 20-30 years hollywood is gonna do some "based on a true story" film about this operation that plays out like an Ocean's style heist movie or something.

If Burgerland continues to exist in a recognizable form in 20+ years, yeah, I think it'll be a "what if these bloodthirsty monsters are actually quirky and quippy?" treatment.

Shitholewood made that Israeli propaganda movie about follow up to 1972 Munich olympics event in 2005 (I think?) So 100% there will be some form of media over this in future.
