Hezbollah launched a rocket barrage


First, the Maroon air control base is located on top of Mount Jarmaq in the north of occupied Palestine, which is the highest mountain peak in the occupied Palestine, and the Maroon base is considered the only air management, monitoring and control center in the north of Palestine, which does not have a major alternative and is one of the There are two main bases in the entire usurping regime: Meron in the north and the second one "Matsabieh Ramon" in the south.

Secondly, at 08:10 in the morning on Saturday, January 6, 2024, in line with the initial response to the assassination of Supreme Commander Sheikh Saleh Al-Arouri and his martyred brothers in the southern suburbs of Beirut, the Mujahideen of the Islamic Resistance targeted Maroon Air Control Base with 62 missiles of various types. It resulted in a direct and confirmed hit

I've seen the video footage and they used precision guided munitions. This was not a spray and pray, this was a strike on a reconnaissance base used for the iron dome and air force.

I'm not suggesting that not a single military target was destroyed or that only civilian buildings were destroyed but the intent was on a legitimate military target.

The fact that Nasrallah knew where/what mount meron was is showing just how prepared he is. Bibis trying to goad him into an escalation conflict so that America has to intervene, however Nasrallah currently is not taking the bait and is instead happy with his current methods.

I think it's about time for the Israeli airforce to start showing the world some of its stealth/anti sam capabilities and start showing off the latest bunker busting bomb tech, come on now....I know you've been hiding it!

I will happily concede the point that hezboallahs targeting of kibbutz in the north is their attempt to seize shebba farms and is therefore not a valid military target.

Nasrallah adopted israels dahiya doctrine. This is the reason why Israel is careful to target civilians in Lebanon. Due to the recent escalations however, I fully expect the israeli airforce to get a movin'

In 1973 we passed the suez canal and cut the 3rd armia supply line
They practically left their country defenseless.


In 1973, Egypt's population stood at 37 million. Nowadays, they're at 113 million. Yes, Israel's population has also roughly tripled since then, but Israel's growth has come disproportionately from its Arab and ultra-Orthodox population. Egypt also hadn't received decades of US military aid back then.

Never underestimate the capacity for a middle eastern countries army to just kind of leave.

Sorry, maybe I'm dense, but what exactly is the point you're making? That the IDF would start massacring the civilian population of Gaza as soon as Hamas fucked off?!

That Egypt's army, and indeed the majority of Middle Eastern armies, shouldn't be compared to European or North American armies in terms of performance.

The philosophy in the Arab world around promotions usually comes down more to having lots of generals with fancy titles for clout and less about being able to command a military effectively. Which is why they tend to punch dramatically below their weight class.

Oooh, you were referring to Egypt, my bad. While this is an accurate empirical observation, I believe you're drawing the wrong conclusion here. Libya, Syria, Iraq and all those example of Arab armies quitting were in situations where a country was torn by sectarian and ethnic conflict. In the case of Iraq and Libya, they were also up against a hopelessly superior enemy. As far as I know, Egypt doesn't suffer from the same kind of sectarian or ethnic conflict. It's also a country with a strong and proud culture and an uninterrupted history. I don't see their military just quitting when their homeland is attacked by a nominally much smaller foe. I have a really hard time imagining the incompetence factor to make up for a 10:1 size advantage in the defender's favor...

Egypt just had a big military coup in like, what, the mid 2010's?

I think you're overselling their stability.

Also in terms of tech Israel would just wipe Egypt. We give them all our best shit.
