Israel’s Genocide in Gaza | 2023- till present

Not from Iran or Jordan. Either Lebanon, Yemen, or Iraq. I highly doubt Hezbollah would escalate from airstrike in south Lebanon (within ROE) to drone strike in Tel Aviv (radical departure from ROE that puts Beirut in severe danger). So that leaves Yemen or Iraq. We have seen some Yemeni officials tweet about this event on Twitter, which indicates they may have been involved. Drone seems bigger than those launched by Iraqi Resistance in recent months.

So at this moment I lean towards Yemen but it's speculation.

Makes sense to be Yemen. Considering US is launching airstrikes on Yemen as well. But I wonder if that drone can reach that far from Yemen.

@Persian Gulf

So it crossed Egyptian territory. If it's from Yemen. Iraq ruled out. It's Yemen or Lebanon.

Yemen has been targeting Israel with drones for months now, I only recall one confirmed success but the range exists. And IRGC are on the ground in Yemen assisting with launches.

Reports that Netanyahu has postponed his trip to the USA.

Yedioth Ahronoth: 500 tanks destroyed in Gaza.A wave of criticism has emerged over the publication of such information, which harms the reputation of Merkava tanks and the Israeli army.
View attachment 55715

The Gaza war has made many people realize many Israeli military equipment are CRAP.

The Ukraine war has made many people realize Western/NATO military equipment are.......CRAP also.

A benefit we've received on this forum and thread from the Gaza war is the 99% reduction in posts and threads applauding and praising Israeli military weapons and technologies.

Who would have ever thought that the most advanced Israeli tanks- the Merkavas, would experience their most disastrous disablement and destructions from fighting small group of people (Gaza) with simple weapons (Gaza militants do not have very sophisticated weapons in many categories of weapons, we know this)?

I kinda wish i could post a poll in this post asking who we thought would win if Israel and Iran fought, lets say before the Gaza war erupted, one on one, or mostly...i mean, Israel fought the toughest small group militias in the smallest territory using simple and even rudimentary weapons, only to lose so much that that prevents Israel from fighting any other adversaries. We are in a historical time within this modern time we live in.

Large/majority of Arabs in the Middle East not doing enough /crap to help Palestine in reality = How effective US propaganda agenda has been on these Arab populations. IYKYK

Agree Yemen or Lebanon and I still lean towards Yemen. Lebanon hasn't responded yet.

Iranian drone as suspected

Launched from Yemen (likely with assistance from IRGC members on the ground)

Biggest success by Ansarallah so far. Remember which countries and which people were fighting against Ansarallah only a few years ago.

Well, the IRGC can't be on the ground in Yemen and Yemen would end "one confirmed success"- Off-course Yemen must've had multiple successes already- how many successful drone strikes on Israel do you think the Iraqi resistance has had so far? 1-2? Is it reasonable to expect that Yemen and Iraqi resistance will/should have similar success rates with drones on strikes on Israel?

Iraqi Resistance launches small drones with mediocre assembly quality in small batches of 1-2 at a time once a week or so. I doubt they had more than 1-2 successes in total.

I remember one drone struck the naval base and one struck a school (allegedly). So that's 2 in total

How did Israel benefit from the flood:


* It broke (psychologically) the barrier of its inability to fight a long war..

* For the first time, it succeeded in stimulating the recruitment of religious Haredim into the army - a historical rift that no one has approached since Ben-Gurion..

* It became more immune to its human losses: it was always looking for a truce as soon as the number of its dead reached dozens - and after the flood, it became able to bear losses in the thousands without popular pressure on the leadership to stop the war..


* It accomplished, for the first time in fifty years, a large-scale displacement of Palestinians (the displacement of 2 million inside Gaza, which is likely to turn into a slow displacement outside Gaza with the continued restrictions on life for the population) - a frozen dream that only needed a pretext such as September 11 to activate it... It was 7 October for them..

* It broke all the achievements and gains of the Palestinian prisoner movement over half a century and turned the lives of the prisoners into an unprecedented hell, and the leaked stories of the hell they see are only a few..

The occupation has always excelled at turning its crises into opportunities..

Israel still not sure how drone penetrated air defences and impacted building in Tel Aviv without being detected!

Israeli sources: It is not yet known how the attack drone was able to penetrate all the defensive systems and strike the building in Tel Aviv, and the police and army have not announced yet, even though a full hour has passed since the event.

Lets be honest, how can Israel's national air defense system not have holes /gaps in it currently? I'm not saying this isn't a stealthy drone and that can enable it penetrate,but i am not confident that Israel's IAD is functioning fully and efficiently. Have Ansarallah had this drone for a while but only used it (successfully) now or is this more of an Iranian strike that is being masked as an Ansarallah drone strike?

Great post!
The bottom line is that aerial bombardments alone can't extinguish a freedom movement whether in Vietnam or Afghanistan and hopefully in Palestine. Movements launched by the so-called militias/Non State Actors have the advantage of not being truly answerable to their respective populations because they are not a government per se. If things fail then who's to blame? Who can blame an armed militia living in your midst?
Having said that, given the very small, isolated and even impoverished Gazan resistance, Israelis had overwhelming material superiority if they only fought like 'men'. Their aerial bombardments was anticipated and neutralized by the Gazans while the Israelis fought like cowards.
The rest is History (in the making!).

Israeli journalist:
I knew that Hezbollah would not pass the day silently over the assassination of Ali Maatouq, but that it would wake up all of Israel at three in the morning?
