I genuinely just can't get in the mindset of these psychos nuking apartment buildings and markets with precision. They can't even use the "b-b-but they were human shields" excuse because Hamas is right in their loving faces! They're just throwing a loving laser-guided tantrum. It makes me sick with anger and grief to think about.

I have family that have done daycare and I originally did preschool at a huge co-op in a major city and we didn't have forty kids let alone forty babies

I know this is a dumb semantic argument but it might be a telephone type situation where someone is referring to toddlers or young children as babies or the original witness gave the report in Hebrew and it was translated incorrectly into English

That said obvi it didn't happen in the first place so whatever

Giving yourself a cut with a razor for every crime Israel commits isn't helping anyone and is actively hurting you. Encouraging others to do the same is not healthy. You should take a break dude, and I don't mean that dismissively.

Correct me if I'm wrong but Israeli settlers are literally just marching into Palestinian lands and towns and driving them off right? Like literally Wild West America poo poo where the whites simply came in and shot up Indians or Mexicans to take their land? Even if they're not literally part of the Israeli military, I can't see that as anything other than an act of war when it's done at scale and Israel encourages it.

Also I'm about to ask the real loving question: How does the Merkava compare to its equivalents in other militaries? It seems like you'd have to make major sacrifices in maneuverability, armor, speed, ammo capacity, operational range, etc. to have an MBT that also has space for passengers instead of just the crew.

BrotherJayne posted:

The passenger space is primarily used for ammo.

Overall it's a decent if slow design, with modular armor blocks containing plenty of NERA. Probably goig to start showing up with cope cages


Frosted Flake posted:

So I was talking about this in the Ukraine thread but the shortest answer is that the IDF has a military doctrine where every Jewish life is precious, and that overrides pretty much everything else. Which means, they don't care about maneuverability, operational range etc. if those things risk Israeli casualties.

They're neurotically casualty avoidant for ideological reasons that get dark pretty fast.

Also, it seems like SOP has been to fill the rear of the Merkava with extra ammo, and we saw some spectacular explosions as a result when Hamas destroyed them.

So you're telling me they just have boxes of tank shells rolling around in the backs of their tanks...? Isn't that why the Sherman had a reputation for immolating its crews in WW2, because they'd just carry spare ammo wherever they could fit it?

I gotta say reading the other posts about how it's actually just normal ammo storage back there and it can be easily tossed out and used as a shelter in an emergency... it seems like it would not be a great design to have a bigass hatch in the back of your tank where all your ammo is stored. Think it'd probably be better to put the engine there! I'm no big city war college graduate but drat if those tanks don't seem like drone food even by regular tank standards.

So according to this woman's testimony, the IDF launched tank shells into the hostage room and killed nearly everybody save the one Hamas guy, his hostage (the woman speaking), and a friend of hers from the kibbutz. But if he hadn't decided to surrender using her as a shield and for her to yell out, pretty much everyone would have died instead.

It looks like the Israeli strategy is to blow everything up indiscriminately and sort out the survivors afterward.

Wow, sounds like the good guys for sure! :shepface:

Definitely sounds like something a US/NATO trained army would do. Shoot first, blame terrorists later.
