    Stationing AD in some countries , only makes sense , if the yanks are worried about their bases being attacked in some way . The only real threat are drones and Rockets that these AD , may not intercept very well . Launched by resistance forces in these countries . None of their bases are safe , and they may be attacked by both Shia and Sunni groups , across the ME , even in Saudi itself  ! They will not be able to fight these with Boots on the ground . They gave up on this idea ,  after Iraq and Afghanistan wars . There seems to be a gathering of many multinational forces against Israel too . With sporadic attacks by irregular forces everywhere . If this tendency continues , then Israel can not win by targeting of any official regular Army units or any Arab or Islamic country , that seem all reticent in getting directly or officially  involved . It is best to concentrate on Gaza , and not direct attacks against the yanks at this stage , unless in self - defence .

    According to the images coming from Tel Aviv, several Hamas rockets would have hit that Israeli city.

    THAAD and PAC-3 Patriot are optimised for shooting down ballistic targets like Scuds or improved Scuds and would not be able to shoot down Iskanders let alone something like a low flying cruise missile or drone.

    The placement of these systems in these different countries appears to be preparation to defend US bases in the region (that they can't move) from retaliation from Iran... so they are clearly planning to do something that is going to piss off Iran and probably the entire region... this is going to be interesting.

    As mentioned, a few drones are actually the best way to deal with such systems because they don't really have anything like TOR or Pantsir to defend them from drones or low flying threats... or even artillery rockets launched from relatively close by.

    During the Afghan war of the 1980s against the Soviets the Americans trained the Muj to use 120mm mortars to move them into range of a major Soviet airfield and then fire off as many rounds as they can and then scatter... leaving the tubes behind.

    Something along those lines would be interesting... imagine a semi truck with the entire trailer filled with single shot 120mm mortar tubes in a launching frame... you could put it on a timer a few kms away from the base and even leave the trailer and drive away in the truck tractor... after a set time period the mortar tubes could start to fire to launch a shower of mortar bombs with launch tubes angled to give good coverage of the base... modern GPS systems means you can angle the trailer with real precision for a reasonable chance of a kill.

    Just as it is about to fire have another truck trailer parked in another parking area launching Iranian drones to attack specific components of the air defence... hitting the missiles in the tubes makes for a spectacular video but taking down the radars would be the real goal because it will be the ballistic rockets from Iran that do the actual damage to the US bases...

    You can have as many truck trailers as you need with as many drones and mortars or instead of mortars just angled rocket tubes... cheaper and quicker and easier.

    Iranians have not recently engaged directly against the yanks . Indirectly perhaps yes or maybe no !  And so have the yanks . Nor are the Iranians going to engage directly now against the yanks or Israel . Indirectly perhaps yes or maybe no  . So this warning by Biden , is a new move or unexpected . Doubt still that either they or Israel will make a direct move . But we shall see ! If Russia does not object to attacks being launched from Syria , by forces crossing from Iraq , and if they remain safe from yank molestation , then Hamas can release some yank hostages , and these dispersed resistance forces can stop attacks on yanks for now ! Instead they can interdict supplies inside Israel , once they land , and gather at their border , carrying out raids .

    Iranians have not recently engaged directly against the yanks .

    They are moving air defence systems into the region... not Israel, but all the countries they have major military bases located in... this is not about defending Israel, this is about defending their own forces from ballistic threats... now that might be because they expect most of the locals to attack their bases with rockets but I think it is more likely they may be expecting a backlash from Iran at some time... and the most logical reason for assuming a direct attack by Iran at US military bases in the region would be a direct attack on Iran...

    Production of ballistic and cruise missiles and drones in Iran should be boosted as far as they can.

    Some Su-35s to take for a test drive would not be a bad idea either...

    The rocket attack in Tel Aviv, which had several direct rocket impacts, was carried out by Saraya al-Quds (PIJ).

    They used Boraq-85 rockets, which seems to be a new rocket that we’ve never seen. They previously had Boraq-70 & Boraq-100.

    This new rocket seems to have better accuracy & capabilities.

    Samir Gaegae is a far right extremist who joined early to the lebanese Kataeb Party , a party which did massacres against the Palestinians in Lebanon during the civil war there .

    Sisi attends war inspection measures of 4th Armored Division of 3rd Field Army in Suez.

    No intention for a direct conflict but i guess this is to counter the Israeli American plan to move the people in Gaza to Sinai .

    A simple arrangement on Palestinian impact fuse on Rockets : the initial impact or shock , not enough to set- off the Rocket , only to release the second impactor on hair trigger ! The Rocket sits on runway and planes can not fly and bomb civilians . Can be mechanical arrangement . Destroying remotely warhead , destroys runway ! If all Rockets fired at Airfield , instead of settlements , then some will land on runways ? Even if unguided .

    Zionist Media:

    - Achieving a surprise attack on Hezbollah today is impossible, as they are well aware of the possibility of an Israeli strike and have certainly taken all necessary measures to thwart it.

    - Hezbollah currently possesses tens of thousands of missiles, with at least 30,000 long-range missiles covering the Gush Dan region and its south. These missiles are equipped with warheads weighing half a ton or more, surpassing the cumulative destructive power of the atomic bomb that destroyed Hiroshima.

    - "Israel" has never faced such a threat, and it lacks a genuine capability to deal with it.

    The military analyst for the Hebrew newspaper "Maariv": The Israeli army has exaggerated the assessment of the achievements resulting from 2021 war with Gaza. It has become clear to us that Hamas has increased its military strength after that battle.

    Fotros Resistance (AryJeay), [26/10/2023 01:50]
    🚨 The occupation forces claim they tried out a small & limited ground invasion along the Gaza Strip this morning, with the help of artillery shelling while infantry units tried to infiltrate but failed & had to return to the border.

    Fotros Resistance (AryJeay), [26/10/2023 01:59]
    They claim they carried out a "targeted raid". The IDF says the raid is part of preparing the ground for the upcoming ground offensive. But their troops left after that.

    Don’t believe this propaganda crap, they thought of starting a little ground invasion operation but their asses were kicked so they immediately fled back.

    Fotros Resistance (AryJeay), [26/10/2023 02:06]
    If you watch the video carefully, you will see that the tanks are a few meters away from the border fence. This operation was pure propaganda for their own army to mostly boost their morale.
