Former Israeli Air Force commander calls possible IDF ground operation in Gaza an "Iranian trap"

If the Israel Defense Forces launch a ground operation in the Gaza Strip, this will mean that the country will fall into the “Iranian trap” and will begin to act according to the Iranian plan. This assessment of the developing events was given by the former commander of the IDF Air Force, Major General of the Reserve David Ivri.

According to a military expert, Hamas attacks will force the Israel Defense Forces to respond with a ground invasion of Gaza. But when Israeli troops get bogged down in a ground operation, Israel will be attacked from Lebanon and the West Bank. This will lead to more serious consequences.

Ivry believes that the Gaza Strip does not pose a major threat to Israel at present. The Palestinian forces operating there can be suppressed by air strikes and through economic pressure. If Israeli ground forces enter Gaza and “get stuck” there for a long time, suffering heavy losses, then a real threat will be created for the country at a completely different level.

The only viable option for a ground operation is the final occupation of the Gaza Strip. But this will still lead to a large number of casualties among IDF troops. In addition, it will not be clear how long Israel will need to occupy this territory and what funds will be required for this.

Thus, not all Israeli military experts support the prospect of a ground military operation in the Gaza Strip, fearing a larger escalation of the conflict and the involvement of other participants in it.

Well, you yourself wanted it, but Russia has nothing to do with it.

[Myths]

These are the true reasons for what is happening, the occupation of territories. The rest of the statements are trending.

Friends over a puddle and the British are throwing Israel into the furnace of war, Ukraine is burning out, new firewood is needed.

Taiwan, S. Korea...

There won’t be enough space for 2 million soldiers in dugouts throughout Israel. It's time to go to Sinai and Ephrath.

If Iran really needs to destroy Israel, which is more than doubtful, it needs to start with the overthrow of the royal power in Jordan, then it will be possible to force Israel to wage a medium-intensity war along the entire border confederation.

solitaire starts to get more difficult
Pakistan announced that it would supply ballistic missiles to the Palestinian side in the event of a ground operation...

I wonder how he will technically implement this? You can't carry ballistic missiles in a bag

[Huarabey]

Why transport them in bags? Hide from whom? Here, it seems, one German woman recently publicly stated that it does not matter where the weapons are produced, what kind and who supplies them to one of the warring parties. Responsibility, sort of, lies with those who apply it. It follows that Pakistan will not be guilty of anything. If they wanted it, they delivered it. There is no crime.))

East is a delicate matter!

The bloodthirsty arrogant Saxons, wreaking war and chaos on the planet, are to blame for everything. By the way, where is Galkin, why isn’t he in the ranks in defense of his new Motherland?

[Cartalon]

Human nature is to blame for everything; if tomorrow all the arrogant Saxons die out, the rest will halve each other in a fight for their inheritance.

[Bayun]

Without a “hegemon,” the chaos in the world will only intensify. Which, in fact, is what the globalists are trying to achieve. Their goal is the destruction of ALL national states, both “hegemonic” and “traditional value”, with the subsequent division of the world into Districts.

[Arkadich]

According to him, he donates blood without sparing his veins. Although it seems that it is impossible more often than once every two months, he probably took on increased obligations.

[Fedka]

They wrote here that Galkin was visiting Latvia as a prima donna. But Galkin denied leaving Israel. “I love this country very much,” said the comedian and intends to stay here.

[ALCA056000]

What @@@@@ is this for? Do you root for them with all your heart? What difference does it make where they are, what they are, with whom and how? Carry around with them “like a dirty bag” (there is a saying, if anything, I’ll explain it specifically to the admins).

Maybe not the Anglo-Saxons, but the Jewish Freemasons?!

[lukash66]

They already have an example to follow, the great Ukrainian offensive. Moreover, 2000 snouts with sidelocks themselves were advisers. That is, they know how to do it.)))

[Aaron Zawi]

Where and when did David Ivry, who will be 80 next year, say this?

[Cartalon]

Who cares who said what and who did what, the main thing is who posted what on the internet.

[Cat Alexandrovich]

In short, bombing is not a joke, but entering is a piss.

[Fedka]

They probably won’t come in, they’ll get stuck. Only airstrikes. Previously, the Israeli Air Force hit targets in Syria like rats with impunity. Well, airstrikes are not an option for Israel. Without a ground operation, the barmalei will peck them...

[vlad svargin_2]

bombing is not pissing, but entering is pissing.

Following the example of their main “friend from behind a puddle”, this is a common tactic for them. You don’t have to go far: you spent time in Afghanistan shooting, and then fled, leaving everything behind!

If politicians do not start talking to their opponents, even if they are gritting their teeth from mutual hatred, then the politicians, the elite, will continue to live.
And those who will die will be those who plow the land, who teach children, who treat the sick, who carry out the orders of politicians with weapons in their hands.

So that there are no traps, they will simply level the entire territory to the ground....

What will they do with underground communications? There are probably many kilometers of passages there.

[Andrey “andrewTSO” D]

It seems to me that our military instructors took part in the preparation of “soft” (no) power... in Palestine. Hamas too skillfully overloaded the air defense of civilians

[andrey martov]

There are no longer 300 Jews, but the entire IDF will come out against the Persians. Well, this must be taken into account, dear experts. . .

If the Israel Defense Forces launch a ground operation in the Gaza Strip, this will mean that the country will fall into the “Iranian trap” and will act according to the Iranian plan.

The only viable option for a ground operation is the permanent occupation of the Gaza Strip.

Didn't understand. How can one occupy a territory without sending in ground forces, i.e. ground operation?

[Eragon]

No way. But, as Vladimir Semyonovich, by the way, named after his grandfather Wolf Shliomovich, sang: “On the scorched plain, meter after meter...” When there is no one left to resist, troops are simply brought in - occupation. Without, in fact, a ground military operation.

[Sergey M. Karasev]

Those. Is the introduction of troops without firing a single shot considered a ground operation? Did not know...

What’s dubious about that? Just listen to their public statements. But fighting on three fronts is not the first

Well, yes, the Israelis will enter Gaza with tanks, like the Russian Federation did in Grozny in December 1994, similar consequences are expected.

Former Israeli Air Force commander calls possible IDF ground operation in Gaza an "Iranian trap"

It’s funny, it somehow reminded me of an anecdote from my distant youth: “We will all go for the power of the soviets!
- And we are behind you,
- And as one we will die in the fight for this,
-Listen, Abram, we got to the wrong place,,,

[Ivan Ivanov_36]

Of course it will get stuck. No army can fight in cities. For this you need special. troops. Given such dense buildings, there will be a lot of casualties on both sides.

[opposite28]

How smart and prudent the Iranians turned out to be. Also, the Iranians supplied weapons to the Palestinians from Ukraine, which in turn were brought there by the Americans because the Europeans asked the Poles to help the Ukrainians, but the weapons were brought from Poland, maybe even straight from the USA to Palestine so that no one would guess anything. Whether you like it or not...
