Gaza-Israel Conflict | 2023-2024

True - but how effective will S-300's be against F-35I's ? Patriots are threat for sure, but how much are they a threat to F-35I's ?


Fair point and that is why Egypt would do well with getting hold of cruise missiles that can at least hamper operations of the bases where these planes take off from.

Remember they need specialist facilities and hangar. Take these out and these planes are useless.
 
LOL. Since when war games conducted without pre announcement ?
By your logic Russia should launch hundred of nuclear ICBM to west Atlantic without notification for reason of war game so that US will be off guard.

You need to announce plan to have war game if your intention is really war game. otherwise dont blame your neigbouring enemy if she feel threatened then conduct preemptive strike.

There was NO announcement of war game to Israel at that time when massive military built up around the border while the rhetoric from Arab leaders, including Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser, was often aggressively anti-Israel and was interpreted as signaling an intent to go to war. Nasser's statements, in particular, were viewed as a direct threat to Israel's existence. More over Egypt had blockaded of the Straits of Tiran at that time. Of course Israel couldn't ignore and consider it just simply a war exercise.

Once again, you said Israel was defending herself. Just because Egypt mobilized their army doesn’t mean you have the right to attack them. They were heightened tensions between both sides and they had the right to mobilize in case of an attack which Israel did. Attacking a country is not defending when you are the one starting the war. Blocking the straits or mobilizing their army in case of a pending attack does not constitute war or a right to attack a country. If Egypt attacked, you would be in your right to attack back. They then would be the aggressors. It was not Egypt who struck, it was you.

If it is enough to attack someone just by feeling threatened than Egypt or another country can claim the same thing. They can attack anyone without no repercussions and claim “defense”. This is not how it works.


The hypocrite one is the one who blame a certain country (Israel) for having closed border with Gaza while not blaming another country (Egypt) for having done the same with Gaza, while Egypt doesn't experience security concern with the human trafic from Gaza as much as Israel.
You can close your side of the border with Gaza. The issue is you lay siege to Gaza. This is a big difference that means you actually prevent them from sovereignty over their own borders, air, sea, etc. You are effectively denying them their sovereignty and destroying their economy. You even took great pride in counter the calories the people in Gaza consume.

If Egypt who blocked the strait which is their territory water was attacked by Israel for that, what should Palestinians be able to do when you infringe on their territorial rights? They should be able to do much worse and have much more right to attack someone who is also an occupier.

Remember nothing happens in isolation, if Israel and Egypt were to kick off, I cant see Jordan staying still or the GCC countries. You could see Muslim countries actually getting involved as it has regional consequences.


of Morsi was in power we could hope

Sisi is a Zionist he will never go against his own kind

The US is considering slowing or pausing deliveries of some weapons to Israel to pressure Benjamin Netanyahu to scale back military operations in Gaza, according to NBC News.

The White House on Sunday said there was no change in its Israel policy after NBC’s report, which claimed the Pentagon was reviewing weapons requests from Israel to determine what may be used as leverage.

President Joe Biden’s administration was reported to be focused on offensive military equipment, meaning any changes were not expected to affect the delivery of air defences.

When questioned on the reports the White House said its stance remained the same.

“Israel has a right and obligation to defend themselves against the threat of Hamas, while abiding by international humanitarian law and protecting civilian lives, and we remain committed to support Israel in its fight against Hamas,” a spokesperson for the White House National Security Council said.

“There has not been a change in our policy,” they added"
