Wake up babe, new WW1 era weapon just dropped (returned).

You see the Russo-Ukrainian War saw the glorious(?) return of WW1 STYLE TRENCH WARFARE. Now, Armoured Trains are back as well! Apparently it's called "Yenisei" and has been in service for a while now.

What's next, siege mortars and walls?

For my Train Gang Comrades out there.

The DPRK undergoes testing for their new AEW&C aircraft, based on a modified Il-76 model. It appears that it will be online shortly. It has been under development for around 2 years.

Just in case someone hasn't seen it: Qassam Brigades uploaded an insane video of one of their fighters delivering an IED to a zionist troop carrier BY HAND. BY CLIMBING AND DROPPING IT ON THE OPEN HATCH AND HITTING ONE ZIONIST IN THE HEAD lmfao. He then escapes and SURVIVES.

There are a lot of things to take apart from this video.

The first and most obvious is that the Resistance in Gaza is still putting up a fight DESPITE the genocidal conditions imposed over them. So while many here doom because Iran couldn't stop "israeli" strikes because they have US support, the palestinians, STARVING TO DEATH, are climbing into tanks and delivering explosives by hand. Let us learn from them. If they were to doom they would have let the "israelis" kill them, one by one.

Second, there has been a change in tactics by the Resistance. Inexperienced people might have expected Qassam to send fighters with suicide vests against enemy troops, kinda like Daesh did mostly around Mosul and Raqqah. While the missions might seem suicidal (let us be honest, the chances for success are very slim) they are NOT suicidal in nature: The idea is for the fighter to engage the enemy as he sees fit and return safely if possible. There's a sense of self-preservation, something they (among many other things) do NOT share with Daesh. To some this might seem obvious, but we live in a world plagued by Orientalism so. And I say change in tactics because, as far as I'm aware, they have used suicide bombers in the past.

Third, there's a gigantic propaganda victory as well as a dialectic victory. Of course Qassam will proudly show their skilled warrior take an APC by himself (with enemy VERY visible too), it's a huge W for them, one more for the long list of Qassam's propaganda victories. And the dialectic victory comes from the fact that many would expect the "israelis" to be the heroes, the courageous soldiers fighting off "waves of arabs" by showing tremendous skills in battle. This scene would seem fit only in movies, like Saving Private Ryan, that has scenes similar to these. However, the hero here is the palestinian. It completely shatters the high confidence of the "IDF", they are being portrayed by clowns. War is a very masculine thing, you get to show off, and the "IDF" is being absolutely clowned by the palestinian resistance here.

Let it be the inspiration you need. They haven't given up, and as long as the palestinians keep fighting the chances to beat these fucking nazis are NEVER ZERO.

By digging tunnels and doing yoga

Or doing what we have been doing for the past 200 years: organize with others.

Oh and to the NEH gang, well, silence because something is happening: "Israel" is fucking winning. They have been winning since 1948.

We all have to be mentally and physically ready for the upcoming era of fascism. Like for real, get fucking ready.

It doesn't really matter if Iran "wins" or not, it's coming to you regardless.

Scuds being fired against US targets? What is this, 1991?

[–] Torenico@hexbear.net 12 points 1 week ago

will Iranian missiles overwhelm the Israeli anti-missile missiles? Is it possible they run out or something?

It is likely yes, but it also depends on a number of factors as well. "Israel" will definitely receive shipments from the US or elsewhere, so their missile defenses will be restocked. On the other hand, "israel" maintains air superiority over western Iran, which means iranian launching sites are being either destroyed or heavily suppressed, which forces Iran to fire ballistic missiles from the eastern region of their country, where "israel" can't reach but the arsenal available becomes limited because not all ballistic missiles have the range to reach "israel" from there.

If Iran fires from their western region it's because the "skies are clear", but the entire area is under constant surveillance by "israel" and also the US. So they might be prioritizing concealment over volume of fire. Not sure if they can fix this situation tbh, their Air Force is rather old and their Air Defense systems have been hit hard.

There are other iranian allies who have not really joined the fight thus far. Ansar Allah has claimed they will support Iran by striking "israeli" and US targets as well, their intentions are good but their capabilities remain limited, let's not forget they just went through a genocide, a famine and a renewed bombing campaign. Hezbollah has also been "silent", their true capabilities after their fighting with the zionists remain a mystery for the time being, they will jump into the fight if Iran feels too overwhelmed but the land link between the two has been completely shut off. Iraq has some pro-Iran militias that could maybe use medium range suicide drones to add up to the volume of fire coming from Iran, but Iraq is a mess too.

This is all without taking into account things like Iran enforcing a blockade on Hormuz or even targeting Saudi oil production or something like that, which would really escalate things.

If I hear one more "it's an unconstitutional act!!" argument I will scream and lose my fucking mind, whatever is left of it anyways. This is the highest level of argumentation and debate the "US" society is willing to have.

And so what? If the "Constitution" allows for such strikes to be carried out, that would make them okay?

Discussing tHe CoNsTiTuTiOn feels so 1800s, brother it's a piece of paper that has no value whatsoever when you live in the fucking imperial core lmao. Jesus christ these people are fucking lost and ready to be swallowed whole by fascism. What are they going to do, impeach Adolf Hitler?

 

Very unique image showing the use of barricades by the popular movements during the 1848 Revolution, in this case, in the city of Paris.

This image corresponds to the "June Days Uprising", which was a big urban revolt staged from June 22nd to June 26th triggered by the plans to abolish the Ateliers Nationaux (National Workshops). The Workshops was a government program in which work was provided to the unemployed by the French Second Republic after the 1848 Revolution, which happened in February. During the February Revolution, workers made clear demands to the Provisional Government: Right to Work and Organization of Labor, said demands were heard and passed by one of the members of the Provisional Government, Louis Blanc, a Socialist. Unfortunately, the National Workshops were finally abolished and in response the workers revolted.

The Garde Nationale (National Guard) was called in and the revolt was suppressed, leaving about 3,000 dead insurgents and about 3,000/4,000 were deported to Algeria. The defeat of this workers-led insurrection marked the end of a long series of events protagonized by Socialism in it's infancy, it also marked the final victory of Liberals over the "République démocratique et sociale" (Democratic and Social Republic) and soon it would form an alliance with the aristocracies around Europe.
