The original video could also easily be propaganda. I literally just watched a video of some Palestinians carrying a dead child through the streets only to run and scatter from an oncoming attack....the 'dead' child gets up and does a runner too!
The audio is there, why would Sky mute it?
 
So, as someone not particularly interested in politics or religion, but very interested in the back story of the atrocities happening here, can anyone recommend me an audiobook to educate me further please? Many thanks.

Israel rows back warning about security incident in north​

The Israeli Defence Forces has rowed back on its earlier warning about a security incident in the north.
A spokesman said air raid alerts that were sounded may have malfunctioned.
Earlier, citizens were urged to take shelter after "hostile aircraft" entered from Lebanon.
But the country's military later clarified the rocket had been launched from Gaza.

Seems Israel now thinks there have been no incursions from Lebanon now

Just watching this explanation now, Rory Stewart is a good choice of person to explain all this:


The first nine minutes gives a decent summary.

Seems to be vast amounts of misinformation, fake information, people stirring **** up, people who've obviously spent their entire lives paying zero attention to the situation and suddenly have strong opinions and/or coming out with stuff which might make sense from their perspective but entirely detached from the realities of the Middle East, etc. etc. with this conflict, way more even than the Ukraine situation.

(Not that I'm an expert).
 
Hezbollah have submarines too, granted not as sophisticated as Swedish subs

There was another exercise based on geezers in speedboats though

I suspect that since 2002 they might have improved their capability. My money is on the US navy. I know everyone loves an underdog but we have to be realistic :cry:

It's been a mess on both sides for decades. Israel effectively surrounded by enemies. Somewhat the worst place they could have been placed.

Atrocities on both sides. One side is terrorist, with the other make sometimes questionable decisions. A lot of incidents that shouldn't happen from Israel either. Largely, if the Gaza strip stopped with the BS, there would be peace, as long as Israel also stopped their incursion into Gaza.

Both sides grow up with hate IMO.

However, I believe Israel is justified in their response. When you start seeing the videos of civilians being murdered and raped, people might understand.

Thread's just going to get spammed with any random unverified twitter **** now, like the Ukraine thread.
 
Come now, it would be just another millitary ship wreck in the Med if it was actually crazy enough to engage a US carrier group.

Very slow and nominally easily detectable, but the small size can work to its advantage in the right situation.
 
Yeah because these horrific images from the Kibbutz could be from anywhere in the world :rolleyes:

So much of the "Gaza" videos on Twitter is actually from Russia attacking Ukraine

Just saw another couple minutes ago claiming Israel is dropping white phosphorus on civilians when the video was Russia dropping it on a Ukrainian town
