    So this is what Lenin meant by decades happening in weeks.

    Glad to be part of this moment in history.

    May Palestine emerge victorious and may we finally all be free from Usanian Hegemony 🫡

    Israel fucking around: “Oh this helicopter raid and assassination is just a police action. We have an Iron Dome and a zillion chud conscripts to keep the rabble in line. Everything is under control.”

    Israel finding out: “This is unpresidented! We are at War!!! Pearl Harbor! 9/11! Suez Crisis! Tianamen Square!”

        Can’t be overstated how much of the Israeli state runs on Palestinian labor.

        Its a country of European pensioners living large on the backs of native youth.

        It’s not like Israel can just make all the Palestinians go away. They need them more than they hate them. Even this revolt won’t change that.

    They should do their best to reach the West bank and cutting Israel in half. Hopefully guerilla fighters in the West bank and East Jerusalem are gonna join in. Ideally they should also coordinate an attack with Hezbollah and Syria should use this opportunity to regain the Golan heights.

      Sadly Syria is in no position to lend major assistance. Most of their armed forces are still tied down either in active combat with remnant ISIS forces, or providing law and order in liberated areas. This means they do not have many units to spare. Further, even if they did have units available, Syria lacks the number of modern aircraft and tanks to actively threaten Israel, and they would probably fare poorly.

      If Syria was part of a larger coalition like the Yom Kippur War, then they would be a large threat. Currently however it is unlikely they will enter hostilities with Israel directly.

        Even if Syria had the troops and equipment, it would still unfortunately likely be outmatched against Israel, and Israel would inflict psychotic vengeance on Syria for daring to help liberate Palestine.

      Any who will raise arms along with Hamas and Palestine. Troops have already been mobilized to the Jordan, Syrian, and Egyptian borders as a show of force.

      In reality they basically mean Palestinian civilians as they see them as an enemy alongside Hamas.

      Yay does this mean Isnotreal finally considers South Africa as an enemy? - Naledi Pandor was denied entry to Palestine while the head of the SAZF was greeted with open arms to do usual liberalism

      This will probably also apply to Namibia, Cuba and Venezuela

        My PolySci professor explained Israel as America’s removed cousin. He said America gives the buffoon a stick and says “I don’t like that guy”. The moron runs over and hits the other guy with a stick. America says “it wasn’t me, it was that idiot.” and when the removed cousin comes back, America gives him a bigger stick.

          I feel like its more often the U.S. controlling/commanding Israel than vice versa. Israel commanding the U.S. has antisemitic overtones, and more importantly I don’t find it accurate. If the U.S. told Israel to bend over and wave it’s dick in front of a shark, Israel would ask how low.

            Israel commanding the U.S. has antisemitic overtones

            Vast Jewish Conspiracy to Undermine The Master Race has antisemitic overtones. US Congresscritters kowtowing to AIPAC because an elaborate web of bourgeoisie financial interests commands it is simply the way of the world.

            Its no more antisemitic than commenting on American Presidents kissing the Saudi ring is anti-Arab.

            If the U.S. told Israel to bend over and wave it’s dick in front of a shark, Israel would ask how low.

            They wouldn’t. And no US Rep (outside the fringe right) would ask.

              Of course Amerikkkans bowing to financial interests is the current way of the world, it just feels really fucking weird saying that Israel is the leader in the relationship.

    Bodies are going to be stacking high. Going to be a bloody few weeks.

    When will the people of Palestine rise up and rid themselves of Hamas? That’s all that will save them.

      yeah i am sure Hamas is the biggest problem palestinians have been facing in the last decade.

      Die fighting or die from a random airstrike performed because some israeli general got bored. Not a tough choice.
