Turning it on in the south to further encourage those in the north to evacuate us what I saw.

I’ve also seen Israel really only supplied 10-11% of their water so their lack of water was Hama’s doing. Israel just turned off the flow of the 10-11%. Also saw Hamas had dug up the piping from a European water project in Gaza/West Bank to make rocket tubes.

Well they’ve been told by Hezbollah’s puppet master that if they continue in Gaza they will enter. They’re not giving up on ops in Gaza, so it’s preemptive on their part. At least that’s my assessment from my recliner on a Sunday morning in America.

Israel turned off gaza`s water originally at the request of the Palestinian Authority because the PA put sanctions/embargo on Gaza and as part of an agreement both Israel and Egypt honored their sanctions.

So really Palestinians turned off the Palestinian`s water, originally.

I hope they lace it with fentenal given to them by us from border seizures.

Keep in mind that water comes from only two places (in meaningful amounts): desalination plants and the River Jordan. Both subject to attack even though it is not near any Palestinian self-governed areas.

It’s the Middle East

If they don’t conduct reprisals, Israel will look weak, and it will encourage more attacks. The trick is not overdoing it, and causing so much damage that Hezbollah is compelled to escalate

Now that the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower and her Carrier Strike Group are Enroute towards the Eastern Mediterranean, NATO will soon have a Massive Naval Armada in the Region this includes:

- 2 Aircraft Carriers
USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN-78)
USS Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN-69)

- 2 Ticonderoga-Class Cruisers
USS Normandy (CG-60)
USS Philippines Sea (CG-58)

USS Ramage (DDG-61)
USS Carney (DDG-64)
USS Roosevelt (DDG-80)
USS Laboon (DDG-58)
USS Mason (DDG-87)
USS Gravely (DDG-107)

- 1 Type-45 Air Defense Destroyer
HMS Duncan (D-37)

ESPS Méndez Núñez (F-104)
FS Surcouf (F-711)

- 2 Landing Support Ships

As well as an untold number of Submarines, Supply Ships, Aircraft and other Surface Ships which may also enter or be ordered to the Eastern Mediterranean over the next week, in my opinion this is much more than just Posturing for an Israeli Invasion of Gaza.

That’s a lot, how does that position us in the rest of the world? And how quickly could we divert all of that if needed for our own efforts? (Just hypothetically I am ignorant to all of this)

It seems that Iran and Hezbollah have made a decision to drag Israel into war. With Iranian Foreign Minister giving his ultimatum (RT): "If the war on Gaza does not stop, an earthquake will destroy Israel and change its map". Meanwhile, today on Israel's northern border: an attack of precision-guided anti-tank missiles against IDF positions and the town of Shtula - one worker was killed. Hezbollah claimed responsibility. In addition, fire was carried out on Western Galilee town with Hamas claiming responsibility.

The various attacks on the northern border claimed lives of Israeli civilians and soldiers. Islamic Jihad terrorists and a journalist who reported from the area from which an attack on an Israeli town was carried out were killed by the IDF's response fire.

I wonder how much fuel a day they consume. Does anyone know ? For the Non-nuclear powered vessels.

Now time for a brief commercial break.

This morning's war thread is brought to you by:
The Fourth Annual Saudi Falconry Club Auction and Festival(ArabNews.com)

If you attend this year's festivities you will get to experience expensive, well-trained birds of prey, shooting (virtual and real), knitting and other crafts, and poetry readings. Unfortunately, this event ends today, but tickets for the fifth annual festival will be available for sale soon!





Seriously, though, the history of falconry there is pretty interesting.

Not anymore than they would normally since all of those vessels were already at sea, if not already on deployment (at least the American ones).

Probably the largest rocket attack yet on Israel from Gaza just happened. In and around Tel Aviv.

Watching the Iron Dome do work never gets old. A couple videos from this rocket attack at this Xwitter link
