Fifty years after the Yom Kippur War began, Israel is at war again, and preparations are being made right now for an absolutely massive ground invasion of Gaza. According to Google, the Yom Kippur War started on October 6th, 1973. The war with Hamas started on October 7th, 2023, and it could quickly evolve into a major regional war as more parties get involved. Once Israeli troops pour into Gaza, the dominoes will start falling very quickly. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will be the one that makes the final decision on a ground invasion of Gaza, and he very much sounds like a man that has made up his mind…
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed Monday to “change the Middle East” in Israel’s war with Palestinian militant group Hamas, as the army pounded the Gaza Strip with air strikes.
“What Hamas will experience will be difficult and terrible… we are going to change the Middle East,” Netanyahu told officials visiting Jerusalem from the country’s south, where Hamas militants carried out a surprise attack on Saturday morning.
“This is only the beginning… we are all with you and we will defeat them with force, enormous force.”
At this hour, a siege of Gaza has already begun as the IDF makes final preparations for a ground campaign.
That means that there will be no electricity, no food and no fuel for those living in Gaza until the war is done…
This morning, Israel imposed a “complete siege” on the area – including a sweeping ban on food and fuel moving into Gaza and an immediate cut-off of the water supply.
“There will be no electricity, no food, no fuel, everything is closed,” Defence Minister Yoav Gallant said.
“We are fighting human animals and we act accordingly.”
Needless to say, many of those living in Gaza will soon become extremely hungry.
And the IDF has already been hitting hundreds of strategic targets by air…
Among the 500 targets hit overnight were eight Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad war rooms; a building housing Hamas operatives; several high-rise towers housing Hamas assets; a command center used by a senior official in Hamas’s naval forces; an “operational asset used by Hamas” located within a mosque in Jabaliya; an asset used by the terror group for intelligence; and three tunnels in the Beit Hanoun area in northern Gaza.
Of course this is just the beginning.
Hundreds of thousands of troops are being mobilized, and they will possess enough firepower to absolutely flatten Gaza…
IDF are amassing their 173,000 troops including 8,000 elite commandos, along with 300 tanks and plenty of heavy weaponry on the border with Gaza in the town of Sderot.
A further 300,000 reserve troops have been mobilised in an unprecedented move and sent south ahead of the possible invasion.
The Israelis would not be mobilizing all of these troops if they did not plan to do something with them.
According to Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari, this is the biggest mobilization that Israel has conducted since the Yom Kippur War…
Regarding the draft of reservists, Hagari said the IDF “has never mobilized so many reservists so quickly — 300,000 reservists in 48 hours.”
This is the largest mobilization since the 1973 Yom Kippur War when Israel called up 400,000 reservists.
Wow.

Inside Gaza, people have already been getting phone calls warning them that the IDF will be coming in…
‘It doesn’t need much thinking about. Israel suffered the biggest loss in its history so you can imagine what it is going to do,’ said a resident of Beit Hanoun on Gaza’s northeastern border with Israel.
‘I took my family out at sunrise and dozens of other families did the same. Many of us got phone calls, audio messages from Israeli security officers telling us to leave because they will operate there,’ he said.
If you were in the same position, would you warn anyone living in Gaza in advance?
Many innocent lives may be saved by these calls, but it also tells the enemy exactly what you are planning to do.
Fox News is reporting that Netanyahu has called Joe Biden to inform him that “a ground operation in the Gaza Strip” is going to happen…
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reportedly told President Biden that a ground operation in the Gaza Strip is necessary after Hamas launched deadly strikes on his country.
The remark, made in a phone call between the two leaders, came as Biden raised concerns about Israeli hostages in the Gaza Strip if a ground operation should commence, three Israeli and U.S. sources briefed on the call told Axios.
“We have to go in. We can’t negotiate now,” Netanyahu told the president, according to the outlet.
But once the Israelis invade, will Hezbollah just sit there and watch Hamas get utterly destroyed?
I don’t think so.
I think that Hezbollah will create a second front in the north, and so I hope that the IDF is prepared for that.
3 Ways Physical Precious Metals Defend Against the Central Bank Digital Currencies Around the Corner On Monday, there were some very alarming clashes between the IDF and Hezbollah forces…
Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said in a brief statement on Monday that its helicopters are currently striking in Lebanese territory. No further details were provided.
Earlier, the IDF said a “number of armed suspects” who “infiltrated” into Israel from Lebanon were killed, and that IDF soldiers were searching the area.
The United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) peacekeepers said in a statement on Monday that it has reported explosions near Al-Boustan in southwest Lebanon.
Hopefully Hezbollah will not decide to get crazy and launch a full-blown invasion of Israel.
Because if that happens, Israel has apparently told Hezbollah that it will “completely destroy Damascus”…
Israel gives clear warning to Hezbollah:
If Hezbollah joins the war, the IDF will completely destroy Damascus and will directly target the Iran-backed Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad. Moreover, US warships will support Israel in this war. This message was delivered by Israel via France.
Needless to say, that would draw Syria into the war.

Of course the Iranians are unlikely to remain on the sidelines if the Israelis start hitting Syria and Hezbollah extremely hard, and any big move by Iran would draw the U.S. military into the conflict.
What I am trying to say is that this thing could get way out of control very rapidly. For many years I have been warning my readers that a great Middle East war was coming, and now we are here. There will be so much death and destruction in the days ahead, and it won’t just be limited to that part of the world.
The UN has never won a war or skirmish, even.
The UN is worthless.
It is possible that Israeli military action could result in uprisings, but I don’t see that they have much choice other than to conquer Gaza. What would really trigger intervention by Iraq, Iran, and even Jordan, Egypt, and Turkey would be if the Israelis use nuclear or biological weapons to exterminate the Palestinians.
You just dont get it, do you? WE ARE GOING TO HAVE TO FIGHT THEM SOONER OR LATER. Sooner is better before they get stronger. And get nukes.
When someone for years calls you the Great Satan and says they want to kill you and wipe out your country, BELIEVE THEM. Mpreso when they believe it is a religious obligation. I’d rather we fight them over there than here, although that ship has probably sailed. We will see conflict here no matter what we do. So just maybe distracting at least some of them over there is a good tactical and strategic move.
Mossad’s infrastructure is permeated these days with the same types of leftist pukes that have ruined America’s security services. Not surprised that Mossad failed to realize that Hamas had accumulated a huge technologically sophisticated arsenal or failed to detect how it got there. Their antipathy for Netanyahu was greater than their attention and devotion to their sworn duty.
Just for the sake of discussion, Hue was not vertical and had large, open streets. Further, the PAVN were not adept urban fighters and their battle kits weren’t urban oriented. Almost all the total opposite of the situation of Gaza… if I remember correctly there were only about 10k PAVN/VC in Hue…. Who knows how many ‘militants’ IDF is facing in Gaza? If it’s total war you can expect everyone to fight for their lives. So maybe 50k out of the 2 million? Who knows.
All that said, with the rapidly progressed urban battle tactics of the last several years, I’m sure the incursion will render very high casualty counts on both sides.
My advice to netanyahu, don’t call Joe Biden. At best he’ll forget, at worst he’ll notify the enemy.
“No reasonable prosecutor...”
...US warships will support Israel in this war.
I wouldn't count on that, at least not before 1:00pm EDT on any given day.

Another Michael Snyder wetting his pants column.
No crisis goes to waste with that hack.
I don’t think that there will be a house to house clearing operation. Rather, I think Israel will starve them out by opening an evacuation corridor for women and children. Israel will demand that Hamas surrender. Failing that, Gaza will be leveled and paved over.
I am and am preparing for it.
Kind of like GWB and 9/11.
We’re right back to as if 9/11 never happened. We said “Never Again” and the left has that down the rabbit hole.
The treasonous policy of open borders is about to bite us. There’s no way they’ll wait until Biden’s term is finished - we’re weak NOW. Our kids will suffer and our rage will be justified.
I’ve been curious as to what will be the trigger for waking up to all this evil. I’ve worried about school buses and ‘gun free zone’ locations for years. The naivety of believing this can’t happen here is absurd.
It was Bush himself who opened the borders after 9/11, he certainly shares some of the blame.
It’ll be the perfect poop storm. The wars the attacks that are bound to happen on our soil and the economy collapsing. I suspect they will let a Republican win in 24 for this reason. They might get the Senate and hold the house too.
“We are fighting human animals and we act accordingly.”
“We have to go in. We can’t negotiate now,” Netanyahu told the president, according to the outlet.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Good to see this kind of clarity. I hope the Israelis stay resolved. Any morally decent person knows they’re fully justified in taking whatever action is necessary.
Let the Israelis fight them. Israel and Iran are about 1,500 miles from each other, and Iran is over 7,000 miles from the US.
We shall see. With the numbers and tanks they’re saying, that sounds like going in to me.
I think that is a poor decision.
The potential issue with your plan is will the “international community” step in before the endgame of that plan would unfold?
I hope you are right and President Trump gets the chance to fix this mess and show the world that he can fix it.
