https://twitter.com/i/status/1800231204563870111 ---------------------- adding: New testimony from Noa Argamani: “I was held at a wealthy family's home in Gaza. They kept telling me, 'You should thank God you're with us; there are far worse places.' While I was there, they would open the door without knocking whenever they wanted me to clean the house. When I was rescued, a soldier opened the door and said, ' Hello Noa, this is the IDF .' I thought he was joking, so I didn’t move. Then he told me, 'I’m going to pick you up over my shoulder, is that okay?' That’s when I realized it was actually happening. During the departure, the truck got stuck, and it was terrifying. The soldiers were so brave. It was a matter of a few seconds, and I might not have been here today.” | |||

I see ham-ass fighters are dressed in civilian clothes. So over 200 ham-ass fighters were killed in this operation. The IDF needs to level that house now. He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. | |||

IDF uses medieval-style catapult against Hezbollah Soldiers build trebuchet to burn dry brush and get rid of hiding places for Hezbollah terrorists near the northern border. https://www.israelnationalnews.com/news/391512 IDF forces used a strange asset, a medieval-style catapult, in order to set fires that would burn away dry brush on the Lebanese side of the northern border. The area targeted by the catapult is dense with thorn vegetation that makes it difficult for IDF forces to locate and identify Hezbollah terrorists approaching the border. Early in the war, the IDF used Molotov Cocktails to burn away the terrorists' hiding places. Lebanese sources have claimed that the IDF also used UAVs and white phosphorous munitions. In order to find a solution to the problem without using up valuable munitions, reservists stationed at the border decided to construct a trebuchet, a tool that can throw heavy or burning objects thousands of feet and was widely used in hundreds of European wars until the 15th Century. The commanders were reportedly unhappy with this ancient weapon and preferred to use drones to accomplish the task. The soldier stated that only one trebuchet was constructed and there are no intentions to use it for any other missions. Commenters on social media expressed wonder and amusement that the IDF, one of the most technologically advanced armies in the world, would use such an ancient device. _________________________ "Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it."

Would they prefer Napalm and land mines? Sometimes the old ways work best, cheapest and most humane. | |||

Here is a detailed story of the Israeli rescue operation. I really wish this had not been published. Why would you ever tell the enemy how you defeat them ? https://www.thejc.com/news/isr...tage-rescue-e2t1d8qu too long to post, but here is opening paragraph: On 12 May, Israel received intelligence about the location of four hostages in the Nuseirat refugee camp area in the Gaza Strip. From that day on, every branch of Israeli intelligence was focused on the area 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to locate the exact location. A team of undercover ‘Mista’arvim’ (units that assimilate into local populations to gather intelligence) were sent there, mainly in the local market of Nuseirat. | |||

Outstanding. The Israelis are smarter than their enemies. They are savvy and capable and they excel at raids such as this. Comparing them to the Hamas terrorists and their collaborators, is like night and day. Some day, the story of this raid will make for a good movie. As to the story being revealed now, I'm not concerned. The fisherman is not concerned that the relatives of a caught fish see how it was caught. | |||

Yes. Israel's enemies know that if Israel wants to tap them on the shoulder, they will tap them on the shoulder. "the meaning of life, is to give life meaning" ✡ Ani Yehudi אני יהודי Le'olam lo shuv לעולם לא שוב! | |||

That little nugget of info might be a misdirection or the cover story. Magic is filled with similar things. | |||

Funny how the green and black battle rags are only for murdering and raping civilians, when it's time to fight real men they go back to pretending to be average Palestinian citizens. Cowards. | |||

I heard on a podcast this morning that bows and flaming arrows are also being used along the border with Lebanon by the IDF. They're going medieval, yep. Melee weapons are next. | |||

The Joe's (or, Aaron's?) in the field are finding a field-expedient method to dealing with the heavy vegetation growth. Easier to use fire rather than complicate things like spreading about a toxic herbicide. Meanwhile, the press breathlessly whines about why such an advanced force like the IDF, needs to use such archaic and ancient methods....yet none of these commentators have ever worn a uniform, been in the field at any length nor dealt with complications that need to be dealt with ASAP. The video game generation thinks that all problems can and should be dealt with futuristic technology yet are mystified that diesel engines and riding horseback are still used. | |||

SDY, I share your hesitancy at posting information the enemy could use to disrupt future operations. However, it’s equally possible this is written to sow discord within the enemy formation. We’ve used highly publicized false reports of enemy informants to motivate self-purges so they kill their own team chasing ghosts. Also good to keep your adversary over-estimating your own capabilities; it’ll slow down any offensive planning and keep their leadership focused on self-preservation. At this point I’m retired and have no idea what the truth is, but have seen enough to realize if sourcing is from a government there is a highly professional group vetting and manipulating each word. As I’m sure you also know | |||
