I wonder when the terrorists will try to overwhelm the air defense system by launching a bunch of unarmed, cheap decoy drones.
If they were smart that's what they'd have been doing all along.

Rumor has it Delta has a heavy breaching element dedicated to getting inside tunnels, missile silos and the like.

And something the Israeli is colonizing, imperial country occupying indigenous lands people ignore - each of these countries is a modern creation with mostly arbitrary borders, encompassing disparate ethnic groups, that have been held together by centralized power and blood.
Or, said another way, each of these countries is exactly like all others, including Israel.
People who single out Israel’s right to exist as somehow problematic or different from that of any other country give credibility to others nations that is no more deserved or earned.

Seems to be problematic.

Some groups of people just hate Jews. If the Jewish people settled in the middle of Antarctica and managed to live and thrive with no outside help and no outside contact, the Arabs and Muslims would still be seeking their destruction. The "land issue" is what they say, but they would hate them anyways.

Yeah we can thank The UK and France for that, among others

Guess I was naive. I didn’t think there were more than one or two looney holocaust deniers out there but the shite I’ve heard people say this past week makes it obvious there’s quite a few.

You can laugh all you want, but the leader of Hamas said that he hopes all Jews go to Israel so that he doesn't have to hunt them down.
That's just 1 group of Islamic shitbirds.

This sounds like a follow-up strike on a target in Lebanon after the drones were shot down.

Considering the original inhabitants of the land were the Canaanite’s who no longer exist, not sure how Jews could be considered colonists since they have had a continuous presence for +3,000 years.

It's a cool story and all but to fair a solid proportion of Israelis are European Jews who moved there after WW2.
If it was only the original inhabitants it would be a different conversation.

It is 100% fact that there is a D-boy cell that specializes in heavy breaches. Pro tip: exothermic plasma torches cut through rock and concrete just like metal.
The Hamas tunnel complexes are going to be harder to clear than Cu Chi. I suspect it will take weeks if not months. They are claimed to be about 300 MILES of tunnels and with the damage IDF has inflicted plus all the tricks and traps not to mention the Hamas soldiers, and human shields it is going to be slow dangerous going.

Yeah, I haven't watched their coverage but Israel was kicking their asses out for biased reporting.

well and the regimes that the US and UK put in power in Iran.
Yeah, but the other way of looking at is if the Ottomans had survived WW1, Israel isn't created, which in turn means the Iranian revolution never happens in the 1970s.
In some ways Iran and Israel were created by the same people.
