Israel on the card?
 
F for all the people that got killed for no reason.
A number of the people "killed for no reason" are ultra Orthodox Israeli settlers who use the superior might of Israel to steal land from the Palestinians. They view the Palestinians as human garbage. The Israeli government has encouraged this settlement policy for decades with the help of the US. The Israeli settlers take Palestinian land and bulldoze their homes.

So yeah it's wrong that truly innocent people suffer and die, on both sides, but these Israeli 'civilian' settlers aren't blameless either. They are essentially thieves backed by the might of the military.

Let's not forget how this started.

If nothing else, this is an enormous intelligence failure.
We are not talking about 3 guys planning something in a basement but several hundred terrorists in a highly planned and organized attack that would have involved many thousand of people.

Planning, organization or many thousand people, sourcing and building thousands and thousands of rockets, sourcing weapons, boats, ...
Funding it all.

They planned, prepared and executed this without the intelligence community even suspecting something was off?
 
I think its pretty obvious what Israel is going to do. We are going to see a massacre on industrial scale, and the western press will be screaming proportionate response the entire time. My feelings are complicated by the fact that I think Hamas is about to get what they deserve. I'm more annoyed over the fact everyone involved is having to hide the naked desire for death and destruction. Just say what you are doing. You aren't fooling anyone with the very small fig leaves about proportionate response and justified uses of force. Just say "I am from Ashdod, and I say kill em all!".
I'll believe it when I see it. I suspect the Israeli retaliation will be extremely "proportionate," and therefore utterly ineffective. Proportional response is some bullshit from the '90s meant to make military action more palatable to normals and faggot, it has never been and will never be an effective or successful strategy. The only way to win a conflict against an enemy capable of attacking you is to make them incapable of attacking you. There are usually a few ways of doing that, but the other instruments of power are unavailable against stateless entities.

As I said before, this is probably the first and possibly the ONLY time Israel can truly neutralize their closest enemy without retaliation from their other enemies or unbearable sanctions from their allies. That they will instead choose a neutered, ineffective, 'proportionate' action speaks volumes.
 
It's not a failure if the design spec was exceeded, that's how those sorts of things work. If a defensive system is rated up to X, and you exceed X, the defensive system has not failed, it has simply had an attacked that was beyond what it was designed to defend against used against it.
Iron Dome previously had a 90% intercept rate across fifty days and 4K rockets fired, with ~70 rockets actually managing to land that were fired from gaza.
That was over fifty days, the muzzies managed to launch five thousand rockets over the space of just one in this attack. The defence system probably still maintained its 80-90% intercept rate, but it was just a simple case of the sheer volume of munitions fired meant that more made it through than when the attacks were spaced out.

I think the real failure, was A) The muzzies managing to punch their way through the Israeli border seemingly without effort, and B) The Israeli military intelligence missing this attack coming. (If they did indeed, miss it coming.)
It does seem incredibly fishy, but it could just be the IDF isn't nearly as competent as people think they are.
That diaper soldier thing earlier looked fake except even more ridiculous things have happened lately.
 
IDF sending notice to reservists who are overseas to get back to Israel right now

Another 80k reservists being called up. This is about 1/2 of all Israeli reservists ordered to mobilize now

Yeah Israel is putting a rock in its fist

Intelligence didn't fail, there were warnings as far back as the end of July that Hamas was preparing a big attack. Just like first Yom kippur war it's all hands on deck rn but multiple resignations in IDF and political leadership once the fighting stops

It's not a failure if you wanted it to happen.
 
I don't know if its broke brained pol tards or what but seeing nibbas in this thread with swastika avatars rooting for Israel is weird.

Anyway, don't care about Israel much but seeing civvies getting massacred is no bueno, F for all the people that got killed for no reason.
I'm the old, old 1488 poster, and I find this happening super comfy and fun. No humans involved. Far away from Europa. Civvies dying on both sides is sad, but damn, Bibi-nya-u shouldn't have let the IDF get into this sorry state. This is incompetence bordering on malice. Let memes flow.

There will be a Night of the Long Dreidels for this, or did the Assad curse take out the whole Mossad?
There is no proof it failed. But its not unlimited. Its a system made up of missile batteries that are not bottomless.

They spammed the air with 3000 cheap rockets. Israel only has so many $150k a pop missiles racked up ready to go. Overrunning it is just a numbers game.

Yeah, the Iron Dome is good. No way to go around that. But its not infallible or magically a bottomless missile bag. You launch enough rockets at it, it will run out of rockets to rocket your rocket with. This can happen totally naturraly without any gayops from anyone.

And even if your rocket is dumbfire, cheap as fuck, if it has a grenade for a warhead, it can still land in a street and kill a few israeli civilians so the Iron Dome can't even ignore them.

I really can't blame conspiracy folks having a field day with this. How tf does CIA and Mossad miss this shit coming up?
Its important to remember Israel for the last few weeks has been utterly consumed by the Supreme Court Reform protests. I expect its just a case of Myopia. The senior bosses were focused on one thing, and ignored the other. After all, Hamas stockpiling weapons is nothing new. They do that every day.
 
The US has already "pre funded" this war. Hamas really can't do much if the IDF goes in on a block by bock "clear and raze" operation. Its not going to start up right away, these things take time to put together, but the word out on the socials is Israel has just ordered general mobilization, bringing their entire active and reserve forces to Arms, which is around half a million soldiers. More then enough for the mission if the mission is making Gaza "secure".
god bless brave israel soldiers bombing innocent civilians and blowing huge holes in children's heads!
got to wonder why this thread exists in the first place, then you find posts like this

Female frontline soldiers are a bad idea m'kay.

At least I can look forwards to more Hila jokes on the next MATI.
since everyone in israel has to serve in the army once they reach certain age, that means that there is going to be plenty of greener female troops on the frontlines.
finally, diversity wins! ukraine could learn a thing or two from them, instead of just recruiting "females" from reddit and leftypol

Kek Trump still the president that gave the most money to Israel yet he still gets called literally Hitler by the same celebrities. Get fucked Hollywood. Especially Tara strong.
That's a commom leftist tactic. Call people Nazi/Fascist and they either have to come out and prove that they aren't by doing what you want them to do, or ignore it and then you can use that as a tacit admission that you were right and then you can justfy doing everythign you do
