Real hurthling! posted:i think the israelis plan is to pivot the air campaign north and try to starve gaza with limited forces now that theyve blown it all up and run out of targets for everything except chasing cats and shooting into windows with terminator quadcopters except 70-80% of Hamas's military are still in good shape to keep fighting and have already behun showing up again in morthern gaza everywhere the israelis withdraw from. and this plan falls apart if aid starts coming into gaza abd a ceasefire is declared. thats an if though so lets see. all in all the big lesson here is every arab dictator must die to save palestine. sadly us arabs are by and large useless cattle so i dont think we have it in us.

mila kunis posted:why would israel start a second front They don't have much of a choice. Thousands upon thousands of people from the northern border have been displaced and aren't coming back unless the IDF "deals" with Hezbollah in some capacity. October 7th shattered people's willingness to just permanently live under rocketfire like the Gaza Envelope did for over a decade, Israelis no longer feel safe with that kind of threat on their doorstep, and the government promised to never "go back to the reality of October 6th". If Hezbollah is still operating and attacking on the border, they gotta do something about it. The Iron Dome isn't enough anymore.

Those northerners won't be coming back for a long time, if ever, and Israel will be ruined even more than it already is.

No way they aren’t counting every hospital and university as a terror tunnel hub. And makes policies off of those insane lies. Everyone who points out the lies are in fact lies are punished. Everyone who breathlessly reports the lies as truth are rewarded. The 20 years of America's terror war have demonstrated that the only risk was in not propagating the official US policy entirely.

It is almost certainly Israeli cope to suggest they have destroyed 20% of Hamas' tunnels. That would be 80 miles of tunnels.

How the gently caress does Israel think they can just roll over Lebanon like that? Lebanon has a ton of internal problems and a fragile economy, but at the same time they control their ports and borders, they have defenses in depth, they are far more resilient to humanitarian catastrophes. And if you think the other two Lebanese factions will war against the Shia/Hezbollah faction, well don't expect that to happen. I see a fuckload of secular and Christian Lebanese at pro-Palestine protests these days.

Protestors are heading towards Kerem Shalom to block it again. Yesterday at a press conference, Netanyahu was asked to comment on this and said that the matter will be "solved in the coming days". Let's see if anything actually happens. https://twitter.com/N12News/status/1751508980117987614?t=-ufChpnBqCackdGq7kdByA&s=19

I think at least the more serious IDF officers if any are left at this point (probably Field Marshals I dunno) know that Hezbollah is just as good as IDF regulars even in a "fair fight" but it's a fascist death spiral driven by internal politics until there is either a coup, they can force the US to fully commit, or Israel commits the state version of suicide by cop.

I try to be optimistic like you guys, but I don't see why it's axiomatic that Israel losing this thing, which they are and will continue to do, also means Israel somehow stops existing. Who is going to invade them and dismantle the structure of the state? It isn't just going to disappear on it's own.

In seriousness it's not optimistic other than I don't think they're capable of actually occupying significantly populated areas of Lebanon, but unless there is an internal coup after things start getting really bad, or even less likely Europe and the US can finally act the adults in the room they pretend to be and stop Israel from escalating with Lebanon, then Iran, then who knows Jordan or Egypt, I think the current power brokers in Israel are deluded and fanatical enough to try to ride the wheels off the IDF rather than accept any limit to their claims, which will absolutely involve committing even more massive atrocities in the hope it will force the US and more levelheaded factions within Israel to be committed to the bitter end with them, but will probably lead to a cycle of tit for tat massacres of Arabs, Israelis, and everyone else caught in the conflict.

It isn't going to happen as a completely direct corollary of current events - but October 7th, the ongoing war and the deterioration of Israel's diplomatic relations (nevermind the literal genocide trial) have dealt and will continue to deal severely crippling blows to the feasibility of the colonial project, in terms of the stability and prosperity of its civil society as well as its ability to defend itself and procure the means to do so from abroad. Israel will collapse under the pressure sooner than later.

Who is going to invade them and dismantle the structure of the state? It isn't just going to disappear on it's own. Israel's entire fundamental core reason for existing is their claim that through brutal colonisation a single place in the world safe for Jews can exist. If Israel loses the war everyone expected to be a simple culling of the helots, it will destroy that fundamental reason for its existence and Israelis will start to emigrate in greater and greater numbers. Especially if there is a large increase in the cost of living as a result of BDS becoming mainstream with a final finding of genocide. E:fb
