2023 Israel–Hamas war

Ethnicity

It is wrong to say that minorities are disproportionately bearing the burden. Whites are indeed slightly under-represented in today's active-duty military as a whole: They make up 64.2 percent of the force, compared with 69.1 percent of the U.S. population. (The reserve components are somewhat whiter.) But whites are slightly over-represented among the dead, at 70.9 percent.

Conversely, African-Americans are notably over-represented in the military as a whole. They make up 19.1 percent of the active-duty force, and a staggering 24 percent of the Army, as opposed to just 12.1 percent of the population. But blacks are not significantly over-represented among the dead of this global war: They make up only 12.4 percent.

Sanaa’s PM Abdulaziz Bin Habtoor:

An attack was carried out by the Yemeni army. The US intercepted some of the missiles & drones that were moving towards the occupied territories while some of them managed to reach their targets.

Yemen threatened israel and said that if the attacks on Gaza continues, Zionist ships in the Red Sea will be attacked.

The Yemenis officially accepted the responsibility of the attack & this was not a warning, but rather a relatively heavy attack with 19 projectiles.

It seems that the war has already expanded.

Hezbollah fired a Kornet missile (ATGM) towards an IOF site in Manara, in northern occupied Palestine, near the border with Lebanon.

IDF spokesman: "An israeli soldier was killed and 3 were injured during an ambush on our forces nearby Khan Younis

URGENT:
An Israeli tank accidentally fired and hit an Egyptian position near the border in the Kerem Salem area, they say they regret what happened according to an Israeli statement.

It would be really interesting, if Russia gave Hezbollah the ability to sink one or two carriers. Russia has every right to do it. The question is, whether they trust Hezbollah enough to do that.

Btw. Israel threatened to wipe out Iran, if Hezbollah attacks Israel. Iran must build nuclear bombs asap. It would be really great, if they could build ICBMs to reach the US as well, but I guess as long as Iran is capable of vaporizing all Zionists in occupied Palestine with conventional or non-conventional weapons, Israel will not dare to use mass destruction weapons anyway.

Not sure about the Med but they had some ships arrive in the Gulf on a scheduled visit and joint maneuvers with Oman.

Never seen more despicable country than Israel in my life. Even Ukraine is not as repugnant.

The lying is what makes me hate them so much. They still peddling their version of hospital attack even on youtube as paid ads.

The US and EU supplied lots of very significant technology and weapons and equipment to Ukraine to kill Russians, I am sure Russia can find a few very specifically useful technologies they could use against US forces fighting Palestine at the moment.

Russia captured some British drones that operate on the surface of the water that can travel distances to hit surface targets... I am sure they could upgrade them and improve them... but what could they test them on I wonder?

The US would have to prove who was responsible before they could nuke anyone, and even if they could prove anything how would they stop, say Iran from closing down the oil traffic going past their coast?

Previously US ships escorted tankers but how would US ships stop ballistic missile attacks on ships... civilian or their own?

The Chinese task force has been in the Middle East since May doing shipping escort and training exercises.

The Iraqi militias don't need to engage the US Army in Iraq, all they need to do is cut the US Army logistical lines from Kuwait and all the US Army bases in Iraq and Syria will have no choice but to evacuate

If the US wants to secure those logistical lines, they will need to at least deploy 100,000 US Army personnel — Scott Ritter, former United States Marine Corps intelligence officer

Lebanese Hezbollah fires on Israeli observation posts on the border with a Soviet S-60 57mm anti-aircraft automatic cannon.

In addition to this weapon, a homemade MLRS with Chinese 107-mm Type 63-2 missiles is used, as well as anti-tank missiles and chambered sniper fire.

Gaza Attack Marks Israel’s Political Suicide: Iranian Defense Minister


TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The Zionist regime’s onslaught against the Gaza Strip was tantamount to the regime’s political suicide, Iranian Defense Minister Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Ashtiani said.
In a telephone conversation with his Syrian counterpart, Ashtiani said the Israeli regime has violated all rules of war and human rights in its recent brutal strikes on Gaza.

He noted that the Zionist regime has in fact committed political suicide by launching the attacks on the besieged enclave.

The Iranian defense minister also condemned the Israeli airstrikes on the airports of Damascus and Aleppo that have killed and wounded a number of Syrian officers and civilians.

“The purpose of the Zionist regime in these attacks (on Syria) is to send the message that the regime is capable of giving serious responses at all fronts, while this regime is more fragile and flimsier than the images it has created,” he added.

The Iranian minister finally lauded Syria and Iraq for adopting independent stances against the normalization of ties with the Zionist regime.

For his part, Syrian Defense Minister Ali Mahmoud Abbas said the Zionist regime’s strikes on the airports of Aleppo and Damascus reveal its domestic weakness, particularly in the battlefield.

He also empathized that Syria will stand against the criminal Israeli regime for the sake of the cause of Palestine.

At least 4,651 Palestinians have been killed and more than 14,000 wounded in Israeli attacks since October 7, when Hamas launched a surprise operation outside Gaza.

Some 400 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli air attacks on Gaza in the last 24 hours alone.

Would you mind to share a link of Scott Ritter's quote? I could not find it so far.

It is from that account, but it does not list the source.

Regardless of who wrote it, it is a fairly accurate analysis.
