  1. The IDF will be spread too thin to maintain the intensity of occupations in the West Bank and growing conflict along international borders

  2. Their rapidly crumbling international support will take a massive hit from the brutality of such an assault and could prompt direct retaliation from Hezbollah

  3. Many, many IDF soldiers will get fucking obliterated entering hyper dense urban combat against a million people with nothing left to lose

These three combine to create the likelihood that Israel would be utterly defeated in such an action. The IDF is a paper tiger when they aren't bombing an imprisoned civilian population.

Thoughts? Am I right or wrong with this take?

Does Hamas still have a bunch of hostages?

Zionists are fascists and fascists care very little for human life, even that of their fellow fascists.

Zionists have already said about hostages being killed: "You trust Hamas that they weren't already killed? They were dead as soon as they were captured." So I would guess that any captives in Palestine do not have a good chance of being returned.

Yes, but some of them have already been killed by the bombing
