IDF and Shin Bet have confirmed, per the Times of Israel.

Government buildings in Iran are flying the "purple flag of anger". I kind of want to get a little one for my desk at work I can raise like at Ponchos whenever something pisses me off.

This is the same piece of shite who said on the record that his party, and ruling group (originally legitimately elected by the Palestinian people in Gaza) has no responsibility to the said people. He said on the record that the Palestinian people were the responsibility or the UN, not Hamas. He washed his hands of the Palestinian people, and positioned Hamas to take full advantage of humanitarian relief efforts while the people suffered. That effectively turned the entire Palestinian population in Gaza into "refugees", and directly lead to most every major media outlet in the world calling large, full-fledged cities like Jabalia and others "refugee camps". Because the UN refuses to label Hamas a terrorist organization, and this dead piece of shite a terrorist, it has allowed Hamas to operate overtly within these "refugee camps".
There are high ranking UN officials who no doubt shed tears this morning when this news broke. frick em all.

Re: your above post.
“IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari will release footage tonight of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar shortly before the October 7 attacks, The Times of Israel has learned.
The footage shows Sinwar going in and out of a tunnel, bringing family members and supplies underground. One clip shows Sinwar bringing down a plasma TV.” (My emphasis.)

There’s also eerie drone footage posted of him throwing a stick just before he’s blown the frick up.

I saw that video. They maybe should have sat on that one instead of showing him "fight" until the very end. They'll spin it as him being a hero who fought "in the trenches".

Exactly. A lot of those so-called peace loving members of the UN haven’t had the balls to call out Islamic Extremism because of a hatred towards the wrong group of people that they don’t have the balls to admit still exists.

They will spin anything, but he just looked completely weak and defeated and just lobbed a hook shot towards the drone with the stick. The left here will play it up as murdered while surrendering.

Kamala studied the maps and said going into Rafah would be a mistake and didn’t want it to happen. Something something everything is bad because Trump running for election for 3.5 years had more power than 3.5 years of Biden-Harris in office…

Things like that should show what some countries are truly capable of VS what they actually do. The way the major media networks across the US and world report on what’s going on will continue to brainwash people into siding with a group of people that would kill them without thinking twice about it.

Hopefully, Israel has about 3 months to destroy what’s left of a couple terrorist organizations before the war machine dies back down across the world.

If tweet fails to load, click here. Because of their small population, sustainment is an issue. The economic costs of fighting a long war are also very serious. You can't pull this many men out of the civilian economy without causing issues.

“The IDF announces that Hezbollah official Hashem Safieddine was killed in an Israeli airstrike on Beirut earlier this month.
Safieddine, the head of Hezbollah’s executive council, was presumed to be the successor of Hassan Nasrallah following his assassination.
According to the military, Safieddine was killed alongside the head of the terror group’s intelligence division, Hussein Ali Hazima, during the strike on October 4.”

Yes indeed! Another one bites the dust.

That's in part what killed Rhodesia. A never ending war that caused the male population to need to do 3-4 years active duty and then up to 6 months at a time on reserve duty until age 50 or so. That and sanctions crippled their economy though they won the war in the tactical sense easily.
The armchair warlord guy (though a weird guy who writes anime fantasy books) is right too. Even Israeli media is reporting about how there are neighborhoods now being cleared for the 4th or 5th time, like Jabalia in the north of Gaza. They've conducted the war as a series of raids basically. Go in, clear the area of Hamas, then leave. The civilians (and Hamas) then come back and build themselves up until the Israeli army needs to go back in again a few months later. This, combined with lots and lots of air strikes.

And there's no way to win doing that
I think they have two options, declare victory and pull back, or forcibly expel the population.
