Inexpensive fiber-optic drones are challenging Israel’s high-tech defenses, shifting the military balance in the Middle East.
A recent video showing an explosive-laden drone striking an Israeli Iron Dome battery couldn’t have been more symbolic: Israel’s famous air-defense system, which cost billions of euros, looked powerless against a small aircraft that cost a few hundred euros.
While the video’s authenticity has not yet been verified, experts believe it is genuine.
The footage was published about a week ago by Hezbollah, a Lebanon-based pro-Iranian militia, which Germany, the US and several Sunni Arab states have classified as a terrorist organization.
The drone strike, if genuine, would mark propaganda victory for Hezbollah and reveal a significant vulnerability in Israel’s military capabilities.
Oh no, do you hear that Israel? The faint buzzing off in the distance? That’s the sound consequences make when they’re getting closer.
Oh my god I get to watch a smiting with my own eyes. The cycle is nearly complete!
God has rules
God’s rules have loopholes
God gets angry
Get smote, nerd!
Ok, new rules!
Return to step 1.
They will literally do it until the heat death of the universe or until they’re wiped out.
That’s the problem with religion.
In theory it’s quite good most religions tell you to be nice and kind to each other, the problem is if you break those rules nothing actually happens to you, no God comes down from the heavens and strikes you down with righteous lightning. In fact not only does nothing happen to you but the establishment set up to promote the religion now protects you from the consequences of you breaking the religions own rules.
Might as well just become an investment banker, at least they don’t pretend to have rules.
That’s a problem with religion lol
