This was a false flag operation, but one done by the Extraterrestrial Alliance and not the Israelis. While the latter always desire to have the United States as an ally, and the more active the better in the partnership, they are realistic about not exceeding the ongoing agreements always in place to define the limits of the partnership and the participation directly in things that are very sensitive politically, especially military action.
This rash act was done deliberately to cause disarray in that partnership between Israel and the US by creating the plan within certain of the Israeli leaders to carry out a maneuver that could be blamed on Egypt and draw the US into a military reprisal, to at least strike out in kind, if not join the war formally. Because this was a manipulation through mind control, there was a suspension of logic and reason to enable this to happen. This is why it had to be covered up—because it ended up as an embarrassment, and a tragic one at that. To acknowledge what took place would cause huge damage to international relations and the future stability of the region if Israel was perceived to be without its usual ally because of public backlash against Israel for its seeming carelessness and callous disregard for American lives. So this was simply a bit of mischief simply to try to muddy the waters and put increasing pressure on Israel by straining the friendship with its main ally simply to see what would happen, knowing it would create turmoil and suffering. This is their stock and trade.
