From the NYT article on how hard it is to find targets to bomb:

This comes after a bunch of lines repeating that the estimates are, they damaged 30% of Ansar Allah's ability to launch drones. But they also don't know if the targets they hit were sufficiently damaged. And these are mostly brick and mortar targets. Ansar Allah is used to having to distribute all of their assets because of all the Saudi bombing campaigns.

lol just recently hezbollah knocked out 2/3 of Israel’s radomes on some base using ATGMs and moxie, but apparently for US cruise missiles it’s a 3rd times the charm type deal

Urgent | Israeli fire brigade: The Haifa explosion occurred in the Carmel Olivens reactor due to high pressure in the atmosphere and there is no danger

https://x.com/AJABreaking/status/1746435856322158872?s=20

sure thing buddy normal air pressure causes reactor explosions all the time.

"The refineries stated: 'A sudden increase in pressure in a protected high-pressure facility caused a safety disc to rupture. As a result, a sudden noise similar to an explosion was produced. This is a statistical phenomenon that happens from time to time, but the causes are still being investigated. There isn't and wasn't any danger to the workers and the public.'"

Considering the pictures in the article, this certainly doesn't seem like a "statistical phenomenon that happens from time to time" but what do I know

nasrallah is so good at getting them riled

https://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4767144,00.html

quote:

Nasrallah also had message for IDF Chief of Staff Gadi Eisenkot, "its simple mathematics. A few missiles on a few ammonium plants equals the same amount of death as an atomic bomb...you can destroy Lebanon and Dahiyeh. You have the strongest airforce, you have missiles, and you have other means by which to do it. But we can do the same thing to you (Israel) with only a few missiles aimed at a few amonium plants."


"Haifa is just one of many examples," he said. "The leaders of Israel understand that the resistance (Hezbollah) has the ability to cover the entirety of occupied Palestine with missiles. We must keep this capability because it acts as a deterrent for the Third Lebanon War. As I said to you on the anniversary in memory of the victims in Qunietra, we do not seek war nor do we want war. The strategy of the resistance is not to start wars of this type, but we must be prepared for war in order to deter against it, in order to be able to deal and conquer it."



Nasrallah then quoted an Israeli expert saying that the residents of Haifa are afraid of a deadly attack on the ammonia plant which contains more that 15,000 tons of gas. An explosion there could kill hundreds of thousands of people in the area. The same expert compared the hypothetical attack to a "nuclear bomb."



"The residents of Haifa are worried about a deadly attack, with or without a war. They worry in any case. They are afraid of a large, deadly attack on the ammonia plants. These plants are in Haifa, and possibly even beyond the city. The tanks in the ammonia production facility contain 15 thousand tons of gas which will cause the deaths of tens of thousands."



The same Israeli expert, according to Nasrallah, criticized the Israeli government by putting the lives of 800,000 people in danger. "Instead of moving the factories, they have instead put in even more sensitive infrastructure."

As a devoted viewer of the US Chemical Safety Board's very well produced accident postmortem videos, I can say rapid increases or decrease in pressure in any system are considered safe to ignore

According to FF (if I have understood him correctly), Germany needs Israel to continue existing because otherwise all the Jews in Germany stop being temporarily geographically-embarrassed Israelis and start being German Jews.

Even worse, if Israel collapses, all the German Jews that Germany had managed to rid themselves of might want to come back to the fatherland instead of living in a Palestinian state.

There's a probably a lot less Jews than dirty Turks and Arabs, but they probably have a bit more social capital so maybe they're an equivalent thorn in the side of the original nazis.
