    I think these new IDF strikes are the furthest from the border in a while. Most of the skirmishes have been happening literally on the border (as you quote), not a few kilometers away from it.

        No reason for escalation, though. You’d think the IDF would want to keep the issue on the northern border contained as they commit so many forces to Gaza.

            To provoke a war on multiple fronts?

            Brilliant strategy.

                The IDF lost to Hezbollah in 2006 despite heavily outnumbering them.

                idk we have two carrier strike groups literally right there, I’m sure they feel quite confident that if push comes to shove we’ll bail em out
