“I have seen soldiers who do not take care of their weapons before leaving the base."

Amerikan troops do that too...

"No army in the world behaves like this. The soldiers carry their smartphones with them everywhere."

Amerikan troops do that too...

There was discussions in resistance medias about how, during the beginning of Al-Aqsa Flood, the occupation soldiers was stuck communicating over tiktok because the Resistance had used a cyberattack to disable all their internal communications.

Seems they switched to whatsapp 🤭

Edit: I found the article.

According to this article with insider information, the cyberwarfare of the resistance shut down all zionist communications networks in a 40km radius around Gaza for the first 24 hours of the Al Aqsa Flood Battle. Subsequently the occupation bases were stormed without any alarms. "Occupation soldiers were forced to communicate over tiktok to make distress calls."

I guess using "attractive" idf soldiers for recruiting backfired during the operation.

I want to see how my former OPSEC instructor would react to this information.

Oh my god mine'd go fucking nuclear. Absolutely, fucking nuclear. Hell, I used to be an opsec manager and the reaction I typed out this morning was a MUTED instance of what I was feeling irl in the moment.

The same reaction exhausted bewildered look your senior NCO gets during a 'no dumb questions' session when he gets a really really really dumb question like "Sergeant, where does the sun go when it gets dark outside" or "Sergeant, if our knees bent backwards what would our chairs look like?"
