The United States is increasingly drawn into the current conflict in the Middle East. According to the Pentagon, a THAAD battery and additional Patriot systems will be deployed in the region.
In addition, Washington is preparing to deploy additional American troops for a “quick response if necessary.”
Objectively, such American maneuvers are designed not so much to “defend Israel” as to strengthen their own positions in the Middle East. However, the Pentagon does not hide this.

Report: Israel has decided to “postpone the ground war” in the Gaza Strip until US military reinforcements arrive in the area.
It’s obvious that If Hezbollah attacks there will be automatically an all-out war in the Middle East.
Right move, Israel needs the US to defeat Iran and its proxies in Iraq, Syria and Yemen.

I find this extraordinarily weird. You? Reports are these Israeli ads are everywhere. Why on earth would Israel be putting ads anywhere? Macabre comes to mind.
Israel defense minister Gallant: This is a campaign of three stages.
We are in the first stage, in which a military operation is taking place with fire and later in a maneuver whose purpose is to destroy activists and damage infrastructure in order to neutralize and destroy Hamas.’
“The second stage will be an intermediate stage of continuing the fighting at a lower intensity and eliminating pockets of resistance.”
“The third step will be the creation of a new security regime in the Gaza Strip, the removal of Israel’s responsibility for life in the Gaza Strip and the creation of a new security reality for the citizens of Israel and the residents of the surrounding area.”

Hezbollah Deputy to the Secretary General Sheikh Naim Qassem
The occupation is waging a systematic war of annihilation and destruction targeting civilians, including children, women, and the elderly in Gaza.
Hezbollah is committed to keeping pace and confronting as part of its vision to serve the victory of resistance, the liberation of Palestine and al-Quds, and what serves our nation.
Today, we are in the heart of the battle and achieving accomplishments. There are 3 Israeli brigades facing Hezbollah, while there are 5 brigades facing Gaza.
As events continue to unfold and necessitate our increased involvement, we will do so.
What we are doing in the south now is a stage that aligns with the confrontation. If the situation demands more, we will do more, and the enemy is perplexed.
If the enemy further intervenes, matters will expand, and we say to those who contact us that they must stop the aggression first to prevent the conflict from escalating.
We are not compelled to clarify our plan, and the enemy should suffice with the defeat they have suffered, or else they will face an even greater defeat with no hope for victory.
The Israeli ground incursion into Gaza will be a graveyard for the enemy, and there is nothing ahead of them but defeat, while there is nothing ahead of us but victory.

on an Israeli JDAM hit the courtyard at Al Ahli Baptist Hospital over at Son of the New American Revolution – 20 October 2023 at 06:58:
Continue Reading
1. There actually is a crater at the blast site. It’s small, about the size of a rocket impact. A JDAM would either leave a massive crater for conventional fuzing or zero crater for a proximity fuse.
Reply: The Small crater-s is where the lamppost-s was standing beside the sidewalk, which was uprooted when the cars on the Parking lot were blown up in a pile against the building by the explosion.
Doctor and nurses don’t park their cars that way.
You can even see the cables for the lamp sticking out of the “crater” hole where lamp use to be.
2. There’s no over-pressure damage that a JDAM would leave. It’s mostly fire damage. Like from fuel of a rocket that fell short.
Reply: There is absolutely overpressure damage when the explosion can pile up cars, and there is absolutely fire damage. Look at the cars.
3. Israel isn’t playing around. A Mk83 is a 1k lb warhead. A Mk84 is 2k lbs.
Reply: You forgot the lower yield MK82 0,5k lb warhead
4. Either one (even with a proximity fuse) would have turned that car park into glass. The damage visible in the photograph is not consistent with either MK device. And the hospital would have far more damage from the over-pressure.
Reply: (either on?) You selected the biggest JDAM but all of the lower yield variants of JDAM mounted with GPS control could have been used.
