ISIS in Iraq is still there. They are not defeated. You have to defeat an enemy for true victory. It is why the US cannot ever win the war on extreme terrorism. Does this mean don't fight it? Fuck no. Hammer them. But it is not victory. What is victory over Hezbollah and Hamas in your opinion? How does Israel get there? Happy to move this to the CR so this thread can be only news.

America.... Mike Toberer decided to bring a dozen of his mules to deliver food, water and diapers to the hard-to-reach mountainous areas. “We’ll take our chainsaws, and we’ll push those mules through,” he said, noting that each one can carry about 200 pounds (90 kilograms) and travel 2 mph (3.2 kph).

Kill as many as they can and block any incoming supplies. There is no building IDF can take that marks the end of it.

foolish believer in conventional warfare theory vs. Guerillas. They always win. They win just by surviving. You are thinking of conventional means, cities falling, postage stamps being made to celebrate some crap. There might be a few that did not win by disappearing, most during colonialism (Mao Mao, etc.) but they won since the target of the insurgency lost. No more theory, going to stick to the news. Shit continues in Gaza. No hostages released today. Humanitarian conditions suck (UN), President Abbas spoke at the UN. Said generations of Palestinians in Gaza fucked.

Still gotta take over the falafel shop and goat pen.

The allen key *fuck allen) is a torture device slowly spread by IKEA via house wives who want a white living room.

Worked with a team to make reaction better in the first 24 hours for Houston. City loved the idea, asked how much and said nah, maybe if the Feds will pay for it. I still have all the plans if anyone is listening. Will kick in 3.50 to the tailgate fund.

Nah, groups decentralize. Very general orders, cells operate as they can. Some will be more effective than others, but they will not defeat the IDF. Ukraine has shown drones are good, but they do not effectively clear a path.

They don't hold, they delay, etc. And for the hardline foot troop, non-leader type, they joined with martyrdom as a distinct possibility. It is a mistake to think they may have our same outlook on life. Guerillas do not hold territory unless the invader does not want it or costs too much. Lots of historical examples of this. Concerning comms. There are ways around that. Lots of groups have been successful without modern comms. Sometimes it is better for them. Can Hezbollah win? Well define winning. Can they hold Israel from taking and pacifying Lebanon? Maybe. Defeat the IDF in a batter? Nope. Shit, even if Syria decided to intercede they would be pummeled, both land and air. Hezbollahs only real options is fire off all the rockets at once and go guerilla, or become a transient force (like the PLO) and head into Syria.

There are plenty of foot soldiers, a lot of RPG's, mines, etc. and Southern Lebanon is not "tank country. They could hold for a bit and continue to sting Israeli forces. I mean, who other than the Norks is better of jumping through fire rings than middle eastern extremists? The impact is really within the political framework of Lebanon. Cross over is will Hezbollah need to pull people out of Syria to come back and defend?

Always forget that. Stewart and Hunter are Georgia. So even better for response.

Cool. I get to be Snake Eyes. You can be Storm Shadow.

So we cannot all come and make your place a command center? Thanks for the link.

@BurntEyes, others in the area. Keep us posted please on what you hear is needed or who we can help. Local is always best.

Yep, for sure the Guard is moving and reciprocal agreements from neighboring states should start tomorrow. One reason State Guards sometimes are not fully activated is they are the ones impacted. Hey Joe, you need to deploy. OK, Where Sarge? Well we are heading into such and such neighborhood. Well shit sarge, I am already there. I was aiming at the thought big DOD does not do shit. Brisket wants the Kitty Hawk to be refurbished and sail up the Pigeon River tomorrow. He saw this movie on a flight.

Oh they are moving. This region has 4 of the largest Army bases in the US near it, and does not look like they were really impacted. Fort Liberty (Bragg) is home to the 82nd Airborne. Benning in Georgia has lots of trucks. Campbell in West KY has the US Army Air Assault units. They got a few helicopters. Then add the big boy. Fort Rucker, Georgia. Home of Army Aviation. Add to that Strategic Air Command (Big fucking planes that can drop shit) are all over the region. issue with them is can they 1- land, 2- offload and move, and 3- if they air drop where and to who. The rule with aircraft is you don't move unless it is safe for crew. But they will move. Problem is FEMA is probably preoccupied with the coast since that is where they were planning for. The regions HQ is in Atlanta. It will take 72=96 hours to spin up the other supporting regions (East Coast and Mid West) to respond. But they are. We are already getting the alerts and shit for responders and equipment. And come on, you get disappointment often. On this one it is a bit premature. No country on the earth responds better. We just expect perfection during a really hard thing. I mean, guess we can clean it up so the lawyers can get in.

Fuck yeah. HAMAS must be shitting bricks in Doha and other holes around the region.

Just russian vodka stills cooking up the goods for New Years parties.

Since he lied on his citizenship papers (There was a gap in legal status) he is illegal. So can we deport him?

Go to a waffle house near Norman and look at the waitress. Quoting Jim Tom Pinch. Her legs look like they were beaten with a sock of nickles. FUCK OU!

Pork rules are real. Airport in San Juan you have to go through a USDA check point before checking bags. Signs everywhere about pork products, etc. Raw, cooked, you name it. not allowed. They did let me bring two vanilla plant cuttings so there is not a war on everything. Reason. African Swine Flu which is all over Latin America. I am cool with this seizure. I like bacon. Wonder what the prescriptions were.

Yep, love that country. Just saw this thread thanks to @Braff Zacklin. Grew up there and would try and link you up with a few old friends. When you drive back from Santa Anna to San Sal you will see some small mounds that are all alike, nothing on them. Don't go to them, but that is some ancient ruins I hope in the next few years they can finally clean up and explore. if you have some time to kill in San Sal on the last day go check out Los Planes. Some cool places to grab a beer and eat pupusas. It is where the mountains end and you can look across the littoral plain to the ocean in the far distance. It has been a few years since I was there but that is my old stomping grounds. IF you meet any 20ish year old girls who say they don't know their Gringo dad and he went to UT they are lying and I was never there.

HOLY SHIT BRUINS.

Damn Bama, when things go right they go right.

Leadership are all going to run to Doha, Qatar and rent some villas between the city and the big ass US Air base there.
