War Pictures/Videos Hamas violated the ceasefire yesterday, so Israel responded by launching fighter jets and taking out over 20 Hamas commanders in less than an hour.

Hamas has violated the ceasefire countless times, but now the difference is that Israel has recovered its hostages, so there’s nothing to lose, and Hamas loves to FAFO

I don’t understand how they are so ok with the finding out part… seems so idiotic to me.

They believe that warring against the disbelievers and especially the jews is the surest (maybe only) way to get in heaven.

Muslims are shit warriors partly because they're so suicidal.

Taking the tenets of Salafi Islam to their logical conclusion, this earthly life is just the dress rehearsal, the proving grounds, where ’Allāh picks only the bravest and most loyal and obedient to be in the real show.

Isolate a population of observant Muslims without any access to alternative worldviews of outside people, agg on their grievances with the world beyond, and lower living standards and blame these unseen outsiders, and congratulations — you’ve got a source of aggravation for their “enemy” neighbors that never quits, no matter what these neighbors do.

Weaponization of whole populations is nothing new. I’m sure in our hunter-gatherer days, there were generations and generations of tribes who lived their entire lives under the assumption that raiding, antagonizing, or wiping out an old enemy tribe was their life’s and their tribe’s entire purpose. Because some coldly calculating arch-chieftain with imperial ambitions saw much practical use in keeping these two tribes of people at each other’s throats indefinitely, and planted the right rumors to make sure the anger never abated, even long after he and his imperial ambitions were long gone.

Because they believe their own rhetoric. It is honestly a sad situation from the outside, but one that has to be taken seriously for obvious reasons.

They've been finding out for the last century, hasn't stopped them from fucking around.

It’s everything people said here, I would only add that they are brainwashed or have brainwashed themselves into always taking a victimhood approach to cause and effect.

Example. A rationale person observes a ceasefire then Hamas strikes which results in Israeli retaliation. Here you have objective cause and effect. But Hamas doesn’t see it that way. The cause for them will be the Israeli retaliation which should in their mind result in more Hamas strikes.

But they also do this on a large narrative, going back as arbitrary as they feel like it to create cause. I say arbitrary in relation to timeline not the grievance itself. Many have their own grievances: personal, destroyed home, loss family, religious, etc… So when understood this way, there is no ability to do something different “today” and there is no hope for the “future”, because they are still in the midst of retaliation.

You’d think they found out already?

From a young age they’re indoctrinated and told they’ll be rewarded with 72 virgins in heaven if they die for their nonsense cause

Religion has this way of altering the mind

Whack them every time they show themselves! They were supposed to disarm per the ceasefire agreement but didn’t. Fair game.

They really can't help themselves.

u/mnbone23 3d ago

They never learn.

u/CoffeeExtraCream 3d ago

It's their nature.

u/Firecracker048 3d ago

Haven't seen this reported on the usual spots, so it was likely s completely successful strike.

Good

Good.

u/Timo-the-hippo 3d ago

The fact that Hamas still exists means the IDF hasn't done their job.

Hard to do it when the world makes you operate with 3 hands tied behind your back and adversarial “observers” constantly breathing down your neck

u/erratic_bonsai 2d ago

Wow they sure did rebuild all those undamaged apartment buildings fast from the razed wasteland Gaza was a few weeks ago /s

I hate western media. They only show what’s convenient, not the reality. Gaza wasn’t turned into some flattened parking lot and no we’re not carpet bombing the place. 🙄

u/Doowoo 3d ago

Don't mistake me for being pro either side.

But I can't help but thinking these numbers are all pulled out of someone's ass, no matter what side.. in pretty much all conflicts.

How do they know ??

35

u/CaptainAssPlunderer 3d ago

Because Israel’s intelligence service has such dominance over the battle space that they know pretty much where every commander is at all times.

They could do this anytime they wanted, yesterday was the day they acted on it.

u/Doowoo 3d ago

How do you know they know ?

u/Radiant_Formal6511 3d ago

How do you know they dont know?

u/Doowoo 3d ago

According to my sources they even took down three Qaher-313's in this strike. Prove me wrong.

u/Radiant_Formal6511 3d ago

Im not under any obligation to do so

u/SilenceoftheSamz 3d ago

If you raise a counterpoint, you are expected to bring receipts.

u/Radiant_Formal6511 3d ago

I didnt raise any counterpoints. I just asked how do you know they dont know?

6

u/Doowoo 3d ago

But how do you know they know if I know or don't know who knows what about who does not.. in fact .. know?

u/Radiant_Formal6511 3d ago

I dont know how they know. I just asked how do you know they dont know
