Damn that must be the only academic discipline as consistently depressing as climatology.
I’ve been reading from some sources (not sure how accurate they are) that every published Israeli loss has been an officer or NCO, which is really sus because there’s no plausible way to lose a bunch of those ranks without also losing at least some rank and file troops too.
Can only imagine that Netanyahu is downplaying casualties because the Israeli public are ultra-sensitive to them.
Israel has rank inflation.
That’s it. I don’t care any more. Im going to kink shame the IDF.
It might be that when a private gets killed, they just promote postmortem. At the same time idk why they would do that, it’s terrible for PR to see that many officers getting killed.
war against Hamas
translation: blatant genocide of Palestinians
That’s why they are taking it out on the civilians, they can’t defeat the resistance despite the technological advantage.
I honestly don’t understand this narrative that Israel is fighting Hamas. They are doing that but incidentally, the point is to destroy Gaza and cause a humanitarian crisis so bad Egypt will let everyone into the Sinai desert. If that doesn’t work they plan on making Gaza unlivable which from all reports is either done or close to done in the north.
It is not like they are keeping it a secret

What is an audio-equipped IDF search-dog?
I assume it’s a search and rescue dog with a microphone. It found the hostages and they told it they had snuck out, hoping the army would be on the lookout for them, but either nobody listened to the recording or nobody gave a shit about rescuing hostages.
