> oh no, they didn't get an instant victory why can't they? god's chosen did it during the six day war after all. > hiding between civilians and making shit as dirty as possible. an actually competent army like america managed to defeat sadam's iraq without nearly the amount of dead civies across an entire country against a much more well equipped enemy that used the same tactics. the idf is simply incompetent. > while their entire organization gets fucking shredded. just two more weeks and then hezbollah will definitely be btfo. > generally, killing far more of your enemy than what you lose is considered a victory. guys, wake up uncle h, it turns out that killing a bunch of your enemies and a fuck ton of civies while not achieving any of your strategic or military objectives is how you win wars.   > in other words, israeli want it all, which makes sense as most people do without considering the policy tradeoffs (i.e. hostages die). i think most israelis have been raised being told that the idf is this unstoppable army that won the six day war and can never be defeated so they honestly think that if they just keep going they will eventually prevail in their forever sandbox war.
