Palestine
A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.
Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.
Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.
We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose "defence force"'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.

Tanks in Gaza. What absolute morons. The IOF are going to learn a costly lesson, this could really cause something like a coup.
Tanks is the only thing they can do, soldiers don't want to be sent to Gaza so they give them the illusion of safety behind armor.
Saw the video that Hamas published recently of one of their fighters ambushing two Merkavas without a single IOF infantryman in sight. It's extremely unlikely that the tanks outran the infantry in a place like Gaza, so it's got to be either incompetence or cowardly infantry refusing to cover the tanks.
Apparently their doctrine is not to send infantry along the tanks
This is what happens when you write doctrine assuming your opponents are children with rocks.
Nowhere better for a tank than a dense urban center with narrow streets, tight corners, and countless spots suitable for close-range ambushes
thats why theyre leveling the whole place with nulldozers. remove all cover, all trees, everything
