It will be a limited ground incursion, in the sense that Israel will completely blanket the area with bombs before doing anything on the ground. And they can do it forever, since the US will just give them more bombs.
The best way to de-escalate a situation that could blow up into a regional war is... uh... Assassinating the leader of one of the main belligerents and then doing a ground invasion. Yes.
Their form of going to the table over Gaza involved assassinating one of the negotiators so this isn't out of character for their insane thought processes
honestly netanyahu made an explicit declaration of intent to ethnically cleanse north gaza; and this may well be both international and logistical cover to bring heavy equipment to the north of gaza and carry that out. They are now in a 21/2-front war and may well have triggered WW3 but nobody ever claimed the zionists were well-grounded in their decisionmaking.
I want to see so many NATO officials and Zionists swinging from lampposts that you can use them as wind farms
There is no end to this, they will not rest until everything is dead and not a single Zionist will change their mind because doing that already means admitting things you can never be forgiven for
There are reports of large numbers of troops and tanks moving to the border, so it seems like they are really going to do it.
On paper, Hezbollah still has everything they need to defeat such an invasion. Either the Israeli leadership is fully detached from reality, or they have more cards up their sleeve.
Also, from what I've heard, it sounds like Israel will invade through Syria in an attempt to bypass defenses in Lebanon. But both Hezbollah and Syria have probably been preparing for that for a while now.
Either the Israeli leadership is fully detached from reality
They are fully detached from reality. They have effectively opened up three fronts in the past month.
Let’s just assume full scale occupation is successful on all fronts, they’ve just welcomed a half dozen legitimate insurgencies that they have no chance of overcomingn in the long run. Zero. They are fucked.
i hope every IOF nazi walks over a landmine, an IED, i hope they all get shot, i hope they all get captured and put into prison and made to assemble bombs for hezbollah to drop on the zionist entity
Personally I hope they all step on a rake and then when they've gone "uuuurgh" and step away from the rake they step on another rake then they go "uuuurgh" and step on another rake and then they go "uuurgh" and step into a deep hole full of rakes.
After Iran's massive fuckup I'm no longer confident on predicting how this will go.
Fully prepared to read about how Israel just rolled in with zero opposition because Anthony Blinken promised each member of the resistance $3.50 if they just didn't do anything.
Iran didn't really retaliate against israel killing the leader of hamas on iranian soil, apparently this was because israel proposed that if they didn't retaliate there would be a ceasefire in gaza, a proposal which iran seemed to have accepted, since hezbollah probably knew about this deal it's speculated that they might've relaxed security a bit and left israel an opening to attack them and, of course, there's no ceasefire in gaza so they lied. And iran believed
Could I get a reality check for this? Does it mean anything? What exactly is a Nour missile?

Hezbollah fires 'Nour missile' into northern Israel
Hezbollah said in a statement that it fired a “Nour missile” at Israel, which sources familiar with the Lebanese militant group told Reuters is a ballistic missile. The missile hit the village of Kafr Giladi in northern Israel, the statement said, adding that it had fired it in response to “Israeli violations of cities, villages, and civilians.” It was the first time they have used the missile, the statement said.
President Joe Biden called for a cease-fire “right now” when asked whether he was comfortable with Israeli plans to invade Lebanon. “I’m more aware than you might know and I’m comfortable with them stopping,” he told reporters at the White House.
While giving them billions in more bombs and arms to fuel their war. Just already.
Israel is such a dangerous aggressor. Nuclear armed, bombing their neighbors, constantly waging war against an entire region, committing genocides. Please Iran, set off the biggest bomb you have in tel aviv.
