After the pilots realized that there was tremendous difficulty in distinguishing within the occupied outposts and settlements who was a terrorist and who was a soldier or civilian, a decision was made that the first mission of the combat helicopters and the armed Zik drones was to stop the flow of terrorists and the murderous mob that poured into Israeli territory through the gaps in the fence. 28 combat helicopters fired over the course of a day The fighting all the ammunition in their stomachs, in rearming rounds. These are hundreds of 30 mm cannon shells (the effect of a spray grenade for each shell) as well as the Hellfire missiles. The rate of fire against the thousands of terrorists was tremendous at first, and only at a certain point did the pilots begin to slow down the attacks and carefully select the targets.

The Hamas army, it turns out, deliberately made it difficult for the helicopter pilots and the operators of the UAVs: in the investigation it became clear that the invading forces were asked in the last briefings to walk slowly into the settlements and outposts or within them, and under no circumstances to run, in order to make the pilots think they were Israelis. This deception worked for a considerable time , until the Apache pilots realized that they had to skip all the restrictions. It was only around 9:00 a.m. that some of them began to spray the terrorists with the cannons on their own, without authorization from superiors.

Now that's what I call a π“Œπ’½π‘œπ‘œπ“…π“ˆπ’Ύπ‘’.

every day hamas puts on a stunning display of video game tactics

IDF soldiers and civilians took cover behind stacks of red barrels but Hamas began shooting these barrels which caused them to explode. Unfortunately the IDF had placed its golden minigun in a secret chamber beneath the barrels, enabling Hamas to kill any person or vehicle with one shot

This isn't even videogame tactics, it's schoolyard tactics. Like I literally used this technique in a rugby match in high school.

And? Did the other team think you were Israeli or not?

hey it's easier to ask for forgiveness for murdering your countrymen than to ask for permission to murder your countrymen

You know you would think so, but then you hear about the Hannibal directive and how in practice it seems to play out by preferably killing hostages to ensure none are taken.
