PawParole posted:This is the greatest victory for a colonized people since Điện Biên Phủ Not a bad comparison to what Ardennes was talking about. Some French units were motivated under fire, not too surprising considering the all-volunteer force in Indochina. However, as the French Army went from effortlessly steamrolling peasants who had never seen a tank or fighter bomber before to actually fighting a determined enemy, it got harder and harder to get the infantry up and moving before the tanks/riverine gunboats/fighter bombers/artillery came to the rescue. By the last year or two of the war, a few cracks of rifle fire could cause an entire French battalion to just go to ground and wait for one of the above to shoot the enemy off their position. When that didn't happen, because it was night, close terrain, or bad weather, or if they were surprised, things did not go very well. This happened so much in Algeria, where conscripts were used, that whole formations of the French Army were basically considered immobile or not to be exposed to the enemy. Their job was to man blockhouses and rough up the Algerian population while the Legion, Marines and Airborne actually went out to fight the enemy. The problem with this is that if the enemy actually did show up, they were pretty useless. They'd just sit there paralyzed, even if they were facing a handful of lightly equipped FLN fighters. The FLN figured this out and could tie down whole regions by firing a few shots at a fortified outpost, which would cause the French garrisons to hole up, and they could go cut all the telephone wires they liked and roam the countryside.

I dunno about Hamas "liberating" territory, but the fact that they're creating active shooter situations and striking terror into the heart of Israeli settler society means that the IDF is massively preoccupied. Every one fighter is going to need an entire platoon to take them down, and they could end up escaping anyway.

Pener Kropoopkin posted:Yeah but you keep talking about it like it's not going to happen. Israelis will get themselves into a two front war and they will lose. They were trying some backchannels a while ago for the prisoners. Also, if they lose, then Gaza is going to survive. The issue is less “raging out” but the actual capabilities of the IDF at this point. I have noticed nearly every NAFO type is pro-Israel. Remember also that the Israelis have a historic aversion to casualties to a fault, they know they need to make a show of it. In contrast, Ukraine seriously seems to want to guys they are sending in to combat to die. Ardennes has issued a correction as of 03:44 on Oct 9, 2023 |

The political momentum is such that it's impossible for them not to invade. Just like how the UAF was politically compelled to send columns of tanks into minefields.

If Isreal ever feels like it can loser militarily, they can just pull a nah we can both lose and maybe throw in some Samson option on top of that.

if hamas did capture almost the entire command staff of three brigades and a couple of special forces groups, where the gently caress did the rest of those troops go? even if they were fifty or eighty percent conscripts and reservists, isn't that still like a couple thousand dudes?

I forget where I read the account of Jordanian 25pdrs being handled just as well as at El-Alamein, but they were the only ones who were able to avenge the King David. I'd place him alongside Gordon, Kitchener and Baker as worthy of the title for their service to the Arabs.

Just like how the UAF was politically compelled to send columns of tanks into minefields. Different client states, as a settler operation, Israel can only sustain so many casualties for a reason, people are choosing to live there, sometimes very recently. They can just walk away. There is going to be ground combat, but I very much doubt we will see conscripts emptying mine fields.

From what I understand about the IDF in peacetime, they're not serious about confining troops to base and garrisons being closed environments. This was a weekend and a holiday, so even less so. The bases themselves, with the exception of air and naval bases, are not as big as British, Australian or Canadian Garrisons. Especially in this Southern Command, there's a list of about a dozen bases that seem to consist of a couple shacks, an office or two, and a mess hall. For example: Camp Iftach (Zikim Training Base) Bahad 4 posted:
Those are training companies, so they're administrative units with a tiny cadre of training staff and then candidates on course. So rather than two full battalions, we're probably talking a few hundred half-trained people, of which most apparently would have hosed off for the weekend.
