How did "the plan that wasn't" to transfer Gazans to Egypt made into the Ministry of Intelligence, and what does the Israeli government think about it?

Excerpts from an analysis piece in Calcalist news site:

Many similarities can be found between the campaign being waged by Amir Weissbrod, https://www.europarl.europa.eu/meetdocs/2014_2019/documents/d-il/dv/amirweissbrod/amirweissbroden.pdf chairman of the Likud liberals, in which he calls for the transfer of Gaza residents to Egypt, and a policy paper from the Intelligence Ministry headed by Minister Gila Gamliel which contains the same recommendation [...] Weissbrod even confirms in a conversation with Calcalist that he passed the document on to Gamliel and other government offices. “I know for certain that the Intelligence Ministry received the material, I really don’t know if it influenced the position paper they published. The content is similar, it’s possible it contributed, but I didn’t write the ministry’s position paper.”

Weissbrod is not a researcher, but rather a politician who was ranked 39th on the Likud list for the 2015 Knesset elections. He also owns the investment fund Champel Capital. The question the government needs to answer is how an extreme position, which experts believe is dangerous, written hastily by someone who is neither a researcher nor holds an official post, found its way into an official document of a government ministry. And more than that: how is this happening right now, during the most sensitive period Israel has known in terms of foreign policy and security since its founding.

According to Weissbrod's Facebook page, he began the transfer campaign on October 13, 6 days after the deadly and disastrous Shabbat. The Intelligence Ministry's policy paper was also written on that date. The economic outline of Weissbrod's plan appears in an official document of the Mishgav Institute for National Security and Zionist Strategy, currently headed by Meir Ben Shabbat, formerly head of the National Security Council.

The original name of the research institute headed by Ben Shabbat is the "Institute for Zionist Strategy," and the only authorized signatories on its board are Moshe Koppel, founder of the Kohelet Forum, and Meir Rubin, the Forum’s CEO. This current year has taught that in the present government, ideas coming out of these circles can become policy.

The institute uploaded Weissbrod's document to its official social media page on Xitter, but then deleted the tweet, and now Ben Shabbat is also disavowing the document. In response to Calcalist's inquiry, he replied: "As is generally accepted practice in other research institutes: the opinions expressed in the institute's publications are those of the authors alone." Weissbrod says that the Mishgav Institute disavowed the document he wrote retroactively because "they think it might entangle Israel."

[...] The Mishgav Institute for National Security and Zionist Strategy responded: "The Mishgav Institute advocates research and ideological pluralism and includes researchers with a range of views. Among the institute's publications, there are also position papers written by guest researchers who are not part of the institute's staff. The articles reflect the opinion of only the author who wrote the article, as is customary in other research institutes."

The PM's Office responded: "This is a preliminary think-tank document, like dozens in all government ministries and security agencies. The 'day after' issue has not been discussed in any official Israeli forum, which is currently focused on destroying Hamas' governing and military capabilities." No response was received from Intelligence Minister Gila Gamliel.

C: Ma provengono dallo stesso ambiente dei manifestanti. Rinunciano ai bastardi della Polizia di Frontiera e de La Familia, ma allo stesso tempo vogliono assicurare ai loro figli un futuro da torturatori dello Shin Bet, sviluppatori di spyware, bombardieri di Gaza, avvocati che approvino le deportazioni e così via, senza che rischino l'arresto quando sbarcheranno all'Aia o a Madrid.

F: È un'immagine demagogica della società israeliana. Innanzitutto, anche gli ebrei mizrahi stanno manifestando. In secondo luogo, la maggioranza è costituita da persone che lavorano duramente, lavoratori come lei e me, senza pensioni pagate dallo Stato, con mutui e debiti e con la rabbia per il deterioramento del sistema scolastico e sanitario.
