These are the hallmarks of either anti-personel smart bombs or drones. The small bombs can penetrate a vehicle and blow up in a small radious. The concusive force and/or shrapnel/blades is what kills.

Perhaps, something like this?

They are also used for assassinations since they minimise collateral damage or assets due to their small kill radius in comparison to larger, explosive bombs. If they used drones, then they could likely have a operator guiding them, which is even worse. Since how do you, uh, mis-identify volunteers? Or just hit any vehicles that moved, indiscriminately.

Uh oh! If Israel kills 3 or 400 more Aid Workers they might only get a COUPLE of Fighter Jets instead of a TON of Fighter Jets from Biden!

The World will remember that......

Remember what?

That makes it sound like there was any doubt. No, even they admit it. They just swear it was three precision oopses up and down a 2 kilometer stretch, on a convoy that was phoned in and clearly marked.

Yea the biggest hallmark of an idf strike I've seen from this conflict.

Isreal immediatly denying it was them.

Three missiles hit three vehicles directly that were spaced hundreds of meters apart. Nothing on purpose about that, nope, not at all.

The fact that this nazi state has nukes should terrify us all

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Albeit it is impossible to know how many for certain, last time I looked into it, the claim was that they had between 4-7 nukes.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

That's still way too many nukes for genocidal nationalists to have...

I think a lot of people just think they will steal Palestine and then be satisfied, forgetting that greed, arrogance, and lebensraum know no bounds. Why would Israel want tons of fighter jets? It's not to wipe out a million starving Palestinians in Gaza, you don't need jets for that. And this should come as no surprise, since David Ben-Gurion said that the success of the 1948 U.N. partition plan of Palestine was part of a larger plan:

Zionist leaders, in particular David Ben-Gurion, viewed the acceptance of the plan as a tactical step and a stepping stone to future territorial expansion over all of Palestine.

and the early terrorist groups that established Israel and the IDF also expressly stated expansion was their aim:

Irgun emblem. The map shows both Mandatory Palestine and the Emirate of Transjordan, which the Irgun claimed in its entirety for a future Jewish state. The acronym "Etzel" is written above the map, and "raq kach" ("only thus") is written below.

Fun fact about the 1948 U.N. partition plan:

The Arab Higher Committee, the Arab League and other Arab leaders and governments rejected it on the basis that in addition to the Arabs forming a two-thirds majority, they owned a majority of the lands.[20][21] They also indicated an unwillingness to accept any form of territorial division,[22] arguing that it violated the principles of national self-determination in the UN Charter which granted people the right to decide their own destiny.

And Israel bribed, threatened, and offered loans (given by the U.S.) to countries to vote in favor of the partition plan, so anyone who supports Israel on the basis of justice or fairness really doesn't have a leg to stand on.

In that link, the section Reports of pressure against the Plan shows just how anti-semitic Zionism is.

Israel is an enemy of everything good.

Anything with 2 legs in Palestina which is not Israeli is a Hamas terrorist /s

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 months ago (1 children)

There might have been a Hamas base hidden underneath those trucks! /s

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I think all ants in Gaza are Hahamas, since they built tunnels everywhere.

No uninvolved ants!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

Wouldn't be surprised, they probably have giant mutant ants to dig their tunnels for them.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 6 months ago (2 children)

sometimes they kill other Israelis as well

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago

A state killing its own civilians cause it cant be bothered to see if they are terrorist or not is just distopian

[–] [email protected] 10 points 6 months ago

Yes, when they think they were actually Palestinians
