The article talks about similarities between the military make-over of Hezbollah and what the author perceives as a military make-over of Hamas.
In support of this idea of a military make-over of Hamas, the author cites Hamas switching over to longer-ranged rockets, as they are pushed back from border areas.
Overlooking the idea that longer-range rockets were already in production and warehoused and even in active use prior to any of this.
Overlooking the idea that longer-range rockets were became necessary because Hamas was getting pushed back from those border areas in the first place.
The article also talks about improved Hamas tactics, insofar as they no longer prance-about with their weapons in the open, and stay hidden, better and more often, then before.
Overlooking the idea that any third-grader who has ever played hide-and-seek has the sense to stay out of the open, and to remain hidden, and to quickly scurry from place to place, while the game is underway.
Even retards like Hamas scumbags can learn from the past and from their mistakes.
Which brings them up to a strategic and tactical competency level of the IDF in about, oh, 1950 or so.
Between the firepower which IDF brings to the table and vastly superior strategic and tactical abilities and the passion and courage of the young men and women of the IDF, I don't think the Israelis have anything in particular to worry about here.
Ditto for Hezbollah, the next time they meet the IDF.
The IDF is much better at learning lessons, as an institution, and will not underestimate Hezbollah again.
It will merely flatten infested areas, to an extent never before undertake in connection with combat against Hezbollah, and muster sufficient firepower, before going in there with the idea that a bloody business is about to get underway.
So far, the IDF appears to be kicking ass and taking names.
The universe continues to unfold in the way that it should.
