Israel uses hellfire missiles, or similar Israeli-made ones, without an explosive payload, similar to the ones JSOC developed, when carrying out targeted killings.

If you are hitting a specific car, since that's a confined space and unarmored vehicle, you wouldn't need a warhead. So, this isn't just a weapon being used, but very specifically an assassination weapon. They've been using them in Palestine for years.

That obviously raises some questions, for instance: why would the squadron ordnance officer put those weapons on the aircraft if the target for the day wasn't clearly identifiable - and therefore specifically targetable - soft vehicles?

Jesus, they used the sword missiles on them?

hamas has given an update regarding the negotiations, they are also confident the war is in their favor

======

Hamas: Mediators did not present new proposals to the movement

Leader of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) Mahmoud Al-Mardawi:

The mediators have not submitted new proposals to the movement, but are in direct contact with us in Cairo and Doha.

If the new proposals do not include real answers that form the basis for an opportunity for an agreement, they remain a waste of time.

The origin is that the enemy comes with answers regarding the files of return of displaced people, ceasefire, withdrawal, relief and reconstruction.

The enemy is dodgy and does not make any proposals with the basic files and wants a deal of prisoners only, but the resistance insists on all the files.

Hamas informed the mediators that if the enemy submits proposals to remove all obstacles to the return of displaced people to their homes in the northern Gaza Strip, provide appropriate humanitarian relief, the withdrawal of the occupation forces and the ceasefire, there is room to conclude a prisoner deal, and the movement will offer flexibility in this file, and otherwise it is not possible.

There is no file with an agreement, and the enemy puts obstacles in front of it, but in the end it will yield and retreat in files.


The internal and external general environment adds pressure factors in favor of the resistance position and not the enemy's.

State Department press corps: Any comment on the video of Netanyahu kicking a Palestinian baby off a cliff and saying he wants to commit genocide?

State Department spokesman Matt Miller: [smirking] Uh, I have seen that video, and I can say that we're looking into it and we're in touch with our counterparts in Israel on this issue. Beyond that I would only reiterate our position that claims that Israel is committing genocide are unfounded and anti-semitic in nature, and I have nothing further to add at this time.

Listen, I've been around a bit, you know, and I thought I'd seen some creepy things go on in the movie business, but I really have to say this is the most disgusting thing that's ever happened to me.

GoLambo posted:

There comes a point where political realism crosses the threshold into "could have actually stopped the second holocaust but chose not to" and the invasion of Rafah is inching real close to that line. If the various Arab governments want to play the scared dog slow game forever until the Palestinian genocide is a past-tense already-happened thing, their heads are on the block too. It's easy to say that "it's easy to say do something" but it's also possible that you're culpable for your actions now no matter how calculated, and letting Israel carry out it's genocide to the inflection point where it will have been completed before you acted is going to see those in charge during that process killed, not sacked. There is no future where Israel wins the war, even if it completes the Palestinian genocide in-essence because there are going to be enough fighters to keep the war hot until the Israeli state collapses. Subsequently, there is equally no future where Israel "gets away with it" and those seen as collaborators will absolutely have a reckoning, because even if you take a pessimistic and cynical view of humanity on a raw political level those collaborators will be the easiest and weakest marks in the world to build your power against. Being a collaborator here is a loving stupid, losing, getting your rear end killed for nothing move. Inaction isn't going to look a whole lot better, and whatever social movement develops out of response to this horror is going to be laser focused on stringing up those who they view as responsible for letting it happen.

Just watch Jordan end up being reverse-syria-libya'd into a militant staging ground against Israel, fed through Iraq, wide open with zero realistic prospects of "policing" against it. Ansarallah, bless them, ain't poo poo compared to the storm that will be coming for the rest of the middle east. I know the late 20th century rotted some peoples brains but wars have consequences, the foremost of which is more war.

I think this is a good post, which made me feel like I personally am isomorphic to a random German not opposing the nazis in Germany as the camps burn on through the night. If that's the epitome of burger thinking I'll happily eat my probe because this post has been gnawing at me since I read it, and I have shared it with a couple close friends and family members.

I also appreciate the optimism shown in this post w/r/t Israel having no possible status quo future and I hope that is an accurate reading of things.
