Hamas isn't a trained army. It's a bunch of religious fanatics with guns, knives, bombs and missiles.
This type of thinking is what caught us off guard in Vietnam, Ramadi, Fallujah etc,,,they are dug in, defensive positions in urbanized terrain,,,probably well stocked with RPGs, rockets and IEDs. It’s gunna be a bloody mess before it’s all over with. IDF will prevail though.

I don’t think anyone except maybe 1 person would disagree with you. However, I would much rather be going up against untrained units without command & control in a MOUT scenario.

Yeah, it's a little different in Gaza though. You're dealing with a finite number of combatants in a relatively small area, and they are perfectly blockaded.

Theoretically, you can just poke around, drop bombs when you hit resistance, and count bodies.

They would be smart to kick all media out though.
