My guy, Israel’s population is thoroughly militarised and has completely dehumanised Palestinians to a degree of the dehumanisation of Jews in Nazi Germany (the irony is not lost on me). Even in the event of an IDF “loss”, the civilian cost on the Palestinian side will be grievous from the indiscriminate killing from constant air strikes.
It is true that the Palestinian side will face countless losses. I shouldn't make light of that. But is Israel really ready for urban warfare in one of the densest regions of the world, against a population that hates them with a burning passion, and with reserve troops? Am I really crazy for believing that Palestine could possibly stand up strong against Israel's ground forces, at the very least?
Remember what happened during the Warsaw Ghetto uprising. The fighters were as motivated and prepared as they could possibly be, but they were still militarily outmatched by an enormous margin.
It is important to be cold and unsentimental in warfare. That is necessary to assess your enemies strengths and weaknesses accurately. I believe the Palestinian troops are fully aware of the monstrous disparity in forces and have set out war objectives they feel they are able to achieve in spite of that disparity.
Fair, but with the possibility of Hezbollah's support this is not a Warsaw Ghetto situation, Israel is fighting on many fronts. But I don't know enough to make any kind of accurate assessment.
Thankfully our Palestinian comrades are 1000x smarter and braver than me.
This is just the price of liberation. No one said this would be easy. Just look at the casualty count of the Algerians and Vietnamese vs their colonizers. But the price of liberation means nothing without comparing it to the price of occupation. Gaza is nothing more than a giant concentration camp. Their complete extermination would have been inevitable had they not fight back.
Palestinian militants have seized the opportunity in the wake of Western weakness (the Ukraine counteroffensive completely floundering, the French getting kicked out of the Sahel) to launch their assault. "But Hamas gave the Zionists the mandate to exterminate them!" As if the Zionists ever needed a mandate to ethnically cleanse Palestinians with the open support of the international communityTM. If the Zionists could get away with the Nakba, they could get away with anything. It turns out you don't actually need an excuse to ethnically cleanse people if you have the means to do so. Just look at Azerbaijan ethnically cleansing Nagorno-Karabakh.
So why have the Zionists waited until now to finally implement the Final Solution to the Gazan question? Why not 2021? Was Hamas and other militants shooting thousands of rockets throughout Israel including Tel Aviv in 2021 somehow not mandateTM worthy? They're speeding up the "put the people of Gaza to the sword and salt the soil so that nothing grows there for a thousand years" timetable because they are desperate, and they are desperate because behind the bluster, they are weak.
Those conscripts won't know what hit them when they set foot in Gaza.

Let them try, little settler
s won't last. Supposedly something like 100k are reserve troops, they are not built for what's coming.

I just fucking hate how this mirrors that. I just fucking hate it.
