Note:

I swapped the original article at the request of a mod to from a source deemed more reliable, but to avoid confusion when reading the comment section prior to this edit, here is the link to the original article. I chose the Relief Web source listed by some who commented. Cheers!

      I think they meant good and bad in terms of skill level, not moral alignment.

        Throwing American money on Children isn’t skill though.

        Skill would have been preventing 7 Oct with “worlds best intelligence agency”. There is no skill in the IDF.

      I think he means their performance in combat, going by the way he spoke of Ukraine/Russia in the comment.

      Yeah, I wasn’t sure how to phrase it. Well trained but bad is a better phrasing I suppose. I find it hard to use the word “bad” when both sides are “bad” idk. I get where both sides come from in the fight 🤷‍♂️

      “Okay” means they are not as cool as they think. A good professional army would wipe its arse with them. Naturally Hamas is not that, nor anything threatening them.
