Military spokesperson for the Al-Qassam Brigades, Abu Ubaida:
- Our fighters continue to confront the Israeli occupation forces on various fronts of Zionist incursion.
- We have destroyed a total of equal to a tank battalion along the advancement routes, in less than 48h
- We successfully maneuvered behind enemy lines and launched an attack from point-blank.
- We executed a counteroffensive this evening in the northwest of Gaza City, where we destroyed 6 tanks and 2 military vehicles, in just 1 hour.
- The number of casualties is significantly higher than what the enemy's leadership has announced.
He also mentioned that the enemy is lying and that the resistance can fight for many years and hold its positions.
A battalion seems to be about 70 tanks. Come by this thread every now and then to gloat as israel collapses. God preserve you all

Sunday posted:as usual with anything that happens in the world i have seen people blame Iran or that oriental despot putin as being whats behind this whole thing, as if Hamas couldnt possibly have conceived and executed the far fetched scheme of bypassing a wall by going over, under and through it
one of my midwit workmates said this in response to nasrallah's insistence of hamas' autonomous attack; i calmly asked him if the ceo personally was responsible for the manner in which he delivered his product. "i mean... i see what you mean."
itself an admittedly clunky analogy, but contrary to what some sparts insist, class-conscious vanguard is reality's dictate unto practical marxism. i am finding more success in mobilising muslim workers on that religious/identarian line than on secular humanitarian/mildly sophisticated class-conscious rhetoric.

they're now up to 160 vehicles, so this has more than doubled in 9 days
"So far, we have documented the complete or partial destruction of more than 160 Israeli military vehicles, including more than 25 vehicles within 48 hours."

is isreal going to be hampered in any way by the loss of 200 vehicles? is the conflict with ukraine/russia going to be decided by the attrition rate of vehicles? are these numbers even in any way real - "partial destruction" could mean anything?
i'm left feeling like i'm watching propaganda arms brag about their kill/death ratios in a conflict in a way that glosses over loss of human life and means little to the deciding dynamics of the conflicts.

solidar posted:is there any significant value to that style of score keeping? i feel like the "# of vehicles destroyed" metric started getting pushed around the height of the ISIS and war in Syria. it certainly has been a significant feature of both side's propaganda in the ukraine-russia war - with the arm chair analysts regularly wading into it with attempts to debunk particular claims or discover hidden troves of destroyed vehicles.

It's more about the order of magnitude. It's not 1 or 4 vehicles like any partisan fighters could achieve against any army. It raises the question, if AQB can destroy a couple hundred IDF vehicles and push the Iron Dome to the point of exhaustion, how would Israel fare against an actual military?

i've been super away from internet stuff just in generally. i only recently found out about lowtax's death a couple months ago; that's crazy.
hope everyone's been doing well though. i've noticed that communism has gotten a lot more popular lately among the new generation, pretty dope.

Statement by the Yemeni Armed Forces:
- The Yemeni Armed Forces’ Air Force, with the help of God Almighty, carried out a qualitative military operation, which consisted of targeting one of the important targets in the occupied Jaffa region, what is called Israeli Tel Aviv.
The operation was carried out with a new drone called “Yafa”, which is capable of bypassing the enemy’s interception systems and being unable to be detected by radars. The operation achieved its objectives successfully.
- We declare the occupied Jaffa area an unsafe area and it will be a primary target within the range of our weapons, and we will focus on targeting the Zionist enemy’s internal front and reaching the depths.
- As our forces announce this specific operation, they confirm that they have a bank of targets in occupied Palestine, including sensitive military and security targets, and will continue, with the help of God Almighty, to strike those targets in response to the enemy’s massacres and daily crimes against our brothers in the #Gaza Strip.
- Our operations continue to support the heroic mujahideen in Gaza who are defending our Arab and Islamic nation with all its peoples and countries, and its operations will not stop except by stopping the aggression and lifting the siege on the #Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip.
- when the colony detonates thousands of consumer electronic devices in another country, killing shoppers, medical personnel, and children, this is a masterclass in spycraft, the truest James-Bond-and-not-his-villain, Batman-and-not-Joker moment.
- however, a forewarned attack on an airbase, using conventional weaponry and incurring minimal human cost, when performed by The Enemy, is terrorism.
- The Enemy is so stupid and terror-bent that they don't even get that civilian casualties are the whole point -- the only number on the scoreboard.
- Either way, The Enemy must be as weak as they are scary, so ultimately, this must be regarded as a colossal and laughable failure; thoroughly ignorable.
- but The Enemy must be an existential a threat to the same degree that it is weak and surmountable, so we will also get dad to come and decry it from on high, and ban the secretary-general of the UN from the country for not decrying it hard enough.
- the 60 dead children in that orphanage the colony bombed within the same 24-hour period may be safely ignored; to brag about running up the score would just seem crass.
