    The day Hamas are supposed to have done this to thousands of cars:

    With only small arms fire and some RPGs!

    Couldn’t be Israeli helicopters and airstrikes. Nope.

      Incredible. There should be an investigation into this, starting with a careful examination of these vehicles.

      What’s that? I am being told now that just days after Oct 7, the Israeli government quickly buried these cars in the ground, preventing them from being inspected. Not for any cover up reasons, but because they, uh, wanted to respect the dead?

        No better indication that these freaks and monsters are indigenous to the Burgerreich than the fact that the cars they blew up received more attention from the government than the humans they blew up.

          Assuming you’re serious, that’s Hannibal Lecter. The Hannibal directive is the idf-cool policy to prevent kidnapping by harming or killing their own troops. According to the NATOpedia page on it:

          Maariv quoted a version of the directive apparently applicable in 2014:

          A. During a kidnapping, the main task becomes to rescue our soldiers from the abductors, even at the cost of harming or injuring our soldiers.

          B. If the abductors and the kidnapped are identified and the calls are not heeded, a firearm must be fired in order to bring the kidnappers to the ground, or arrest them.

          D. [sic] If the vehicle or the hijackers do not stop, they should be fired at individually, intentionally, in order to hit the hijackers, even if it means harming our soldiers.

          This section was accompanied by an asterisk comment emphasizing: “In any case, everything should be done to stop the vehicle and not allow it to escape”.
