IDF took all Gaza towns with total population of over 2 million losing 400 soldiers:1. Hamas is militairily active and killing IDF-soldiers every day.
In the beginning of the war they fired long range rocket salvos at Tel Aviv 3 times a day. They fired hurderds of rockets at other towns. Now they fire couple mortar shells a week which fall in open field near the border or in Gaza itself.2. Hamas launching rockets towards Israel every day.
Thats Gazan choice:3. No civillian rejection or resistance against Hamas.
4. Hamas is on the negotiation table and there is no ‘De-Hamasication’.
I'm not a Hamas cheerleader, but this is not the true statement of military prowess imo. Kurds (PKK) tried the 'assymmetric urban defense' bullshit in a couple of towns back in 2015. Turkish military/police retook the towns after somehow comperable fighting conditions. We pride ourselves in not carpet bombing the towns, which caused maybe 3-5 times more casualities for our servicemen. We also rebuilt the same towns for free, with astonishing speed. Just search for Sur or Cizre before and after photos. I don't think Israel conducted itself with the same underlying good intention towards civilians. And this is the true problem for Israeli PR. If a person is moderately neutral, the bullshit is easy to see through. The ratio of civilian/combatant casualities are horrendous.IDF took all Gaza towns with total population of over 2 million losing 400 soldiers:
Why are you so happy?Ceasefire reached!
Long live the resistance!
Hamas outlasted the combined forces of the Western superpowers.
Isolated and blocked from the outside world they still defeated Israel.
Israel couldnt liberate the hostages with force and get pressured to come to the negotiation table.
Are you really comparing Ukraine to Gaza?IDF took all Gaza towns with total population of over 2 million losing 400 soldiers:
If Russia was fighting against children with rocks it would've lost less than 400.IDF took all Gaza towns with total population of over 2 million losing 400 soldiers:

For comparison Russia lost 22,000 soldiers in 70 k town of Bakhmut.
In the beginning of the war they fired long range rocket salvos at Tel Aviv 3 times a day. They fired hurderds of rockets at other towns. Now they fire couple mortar shells a week which fall in open field near the border or in Gaza itself.
Thats Gazan choice:
1) To be a free proud and prospering nation.
2) To be poor slaves of Iranian mullas.
If trey chose #2 - its their problem.
No more games like before 7 oct.

That being said, I'm truly disinterested towards the moral aspect of this war. Just wanted to point things out.
* Hamas had 40,000 K force - 4 divisions.Are you really comparing Ukraine to Gaza?
Two standing armies in Ukraine.
Israeli Armed Forces against a couple of Kalashnikovs and 2 million defenceless man women and children without weapons.
Wow just wow,you are unreal.
And then you wonder why Israel has so many enemies?
Dude .... Are you seriously comparing a militia forces ( they not even have a working howitzer... ) with a legit nation's standing army backed wholly with the economical and military might of western power .... ??* Hamas had 40,000 K force - 4 divisions.
* They have very large quantity of 105-mm tandem RPGs and 12.7 mm sniper rifles, perfectly suited for urban warfare, much better than vaunted NLAW which are unreliable complicated junk that does not even work at close ranges.
* Typical Ukrainian soldier is a poor villager who was drafted by force and passed several months of training.. Typical Hamas fighter is professional fanatic who passed training since his childhood.
* Bakhmut was not prepared for assault at all, in Gaza they dig hundreds kms of tunnels preparing for the assault for 20 years.
* Ukrainians evacuated all their civilians. Hamas prevented evacuation of civilians.
* Ukrainians fought in uniforms, Hamas always fights in civilian clothing.
* Ukrainians needed constant supplies, these supply lines were extremely vulnerable to Russian attacks. Hamas gets supplies from UNRWA through Israel.
Yet Russia lost 22,000 KIA in Balhmut which is size of one block in Gaza city.
You seriously compare storming a tiny town with Turkish citizens and 2 million Gaza with 40,000 professional Hamas army with hundreds kms of tunnels? Its like Israel storming some Israeli Arab town. I cant even imagine it.I'm not a Hamas cheerleader, but this is not the true statement of military prowess imo.

They dont need howitzers they will be easily taken out from the air in a minute. For example Hezbollah could get any tank and howitzer from Assad arsenal, but never did it. They knew Israel will destroy all in minutes.Dude ....
