The understanding I have of the Israeli military (and I could be very wrong, I haven't made a study of this) is that they tend to be surgical in their operations; so Mossad kills a key general or administrator, or knocks out key infra, etc., etc., rather than a full on conventional war.
- chuckadams 3y agoThat makes for some sticky pages in a Soldier of Fortune magazine, but has never once decided a war.
- hirsin 3y agoNothing about the last several months implies surgical strikes or key infra being targeted, and heavily leans towards glassing the enemy territory. Certainly they have that capability, and there's plenty of evidence that they do targeted killings, but that doesn't appear to be their MO when invading someone.
- int_19h 3y agoSurgical strikes are easy when your enemy has little ability to intercept them. However, Iran definitely has S-300, and quite possibly also some S-400 by now. Can Israel overwhelm them? How many Israeli planes will be shot down in the process? And how will Israel respond to those losses?
- thsksbd 3y agoWell as a quick study, look up "where's daddy" and "Lavender" as exposed by (ironically) Israeli media. Btw, one of the best sources in this conflict is Israeli media. Especially the Hebrew language one.
