The newest line of defense is "it took Israel days to tally up all their people who died in the attacks, so how could hamas figure out 500 died so quickly?" and I think this has hurt my brain the most

Hamas isn't doing all this algebra to figure out how many 9/11s their casualties equate to

Semper Shitpost Ubique


On Saturday at approximately 6:30 a.m., Hamas launched, according to reports, about 140-150 drones with bombs and simultaneously managed to disable all the firing positions in the line. Not a single shot was fired from a hundred positions. After the shooter was thwarted, shots were fired at 22 additional MARS cameras along the border that were the "eyes" of the division’s observers and the entire IDF for the Gaza Strip. The screens went dark.

In the remote areas and the underground high command post in Tel Aviv they likely thought it was a technical fault and waited for a technician to fix the system. No one imagined that, in those minutes, Toyota vehicles and motorcycles, loaded with Hamas commandos, had broken through the border and were rushing towards the IDF outposts and surrounding settlements.

The Hamas commando unit, the Nohva, which I wrote about, arrived after months of training to take over IDF outposts. Some training had been previously visible to the IDF and had been held at Hamas facilities in Gaza. Hamas terrorists breached the fence, immobilized IDF tanks that were opening an axis, and quickly rushed to the outposts: Sufa, Reim, Nahal Oz, and Erez.

There was massive RPG shooting, throwing hundreds of grenades, and shooting small arms. The few Israeli soldiers, probably 300-400 at most, at least a third of whom were observers without combat training, were hopeless. Fighters in the protected bases were captured and killed in their underwear. Hamas filmed everything and published it. It is not yet clear if there were alarms at the bases. The division was in silence. Some of the forces went down to Judea and Samaria (the West Bank), another part was on holiday. Nobody knew anything.

The terrorists infiltrated the bases, disabled the ICT rooms [intelligence, communications, and technology], and turned off the IDF's communications in the area. No one knew what was going on. Communication between the Otef [envelope around Gaza] and the rest of the country, east, and north of the Otef - was cut off. The Israel Defense Forces concept - a digital ground army and a linked IDF - collapsed completely after 30-60 minutes of combat. IDF and police forces that arrived independently at the Otef also acted without synchronization. There was no communication.

..

"In addition, the female observers who were at home last Saturday and saw what happened to their friends (I will refrain from describing the horrors) do not want to go back to manning the positions. In other words, the Gaza Division is also expected to experience a challenge in manning observation positions."

Isn't this a loving army? Can't you order people to man the critical observation posts your whole concept of defence hinges on?

I wonder how many of the reported causalities weren't due Hamas targeting civilians but random on/off IDF/Cops/security personnel just getting mowed down along with friendly fire. Israel seemed to be 100% unprepared and the limiting factor on Hamas side's manpower they were willing to devote to it.

That said, it really doesn't seem anyone is thrilled about making a counterresponse. I wonder how much US carriers will actually change the equation as well.

Probably started after the 2008 recession. That's when a bunch of evangelical pro Israel churches started popping up. My mom is in one. It is disgusting, they don't even read the bible, just praise jesus and grumble about how Israel is entitled to their self defense.

Hmm lets see:

~1000 hunger game escapees
~300 dead concentration camp guards from the most meatheaded, 60% conscript, cop-rear end army in the world + their friends who didn't die

Yeah I'm sure those battles were conducted with the utmost professionalism with no civilians caught in the crossfire. They must have all just been executed along with their many, many babies.
