    Can’t say I really buy what this anonymous “source” is selling, the scale and number of fighters involved in the operation does not imply some limited mission to “kill some Israelis, embarrass the IDF and return to Gaza with two or three kidnapped Israelis” that just got outta hand

    Hamas attacked all along the border at every major point, they had the intel, the lay of the land and the resources and manpower to push deep and still hold the envelope 5 DAYS LATER, that’s not an accident and I highly doubt Hama’s leadership are bewildered by how successful it was, they paid the necessary price and there hasn’t been any panicky response from them since

    As someone said on twitter it is funny that Egypt tried to warn Israel

    Yo this Egypt. Yeah you’re going to be attacked when you least expect it on one of your biggest holidays…yes I’m aware it’s the 50 year anniversary of the Yom Kippur war…yeah they’re going to use paragliders…no, no this isn’t a prank…wait don’t hang up.

    “We’re gonna win so much, you may even get tired of winning. And you’ll say, ‘Please, please. It’s too much winning. We can’t take it anymore. Mr. President, it’s too much.’”

    Unironically hoping the success is true and continues, with the ending being Palestine becoming free and ending the fascist Israeli apartheid.

    When you go to the club hopping - hoping against hope just to get lucky and then you you end up in a swanky hotel in the penthouse with three dozen hotties.

    [Edit - I edited it but I just realized I didn’t actually fix it: club hop(p)ing against hope. Haha.]
