Palestinian Resistance Photos

[Falcon29]

Can't find the political discussion thread so I'll ask here and if you can link me to the appropriate thread, I'll delete this post and take it from there. What's your opinion on the recent Hamas/Fatah reconciliation and Netanhayu thinking it's fake?

I've been saying all along that Hamas doesn't want to administer Gaza or any other Palestinian territory. It doesn't know a way out, however. Largely because the controversy surrounding the armed wing. This time around Hamas is serious about giving up administration of Gaza to the PA. They genuinely don't want it anymore. PA wants a lot more out of that, I am unsure what Egypt's position is on whether the armed wing should be dismantled. Egypt has played a big role so far, and if it can convince PA to move forward without dismantling the armed wing, it will work this time. Hamas does not want to dismantle the armed wing, because of three reasons.

One being that they fear the PA will politically crackdown on them if they are without weapons. Another being that these armed wings have gone a far way now, they are somewhat large and all that work that went into forming them would go to waste. The second reason is Hamas doesn't really have a purpose without an armed wing, it will lose relevance if it does. It initially was a social movement that morphed into an armed resistance group which is what it was famous for. People want it to remain an armed resistance group but want them to leave the government. Lastly, these armed wings should not be dismantled unless UN declares a Palestinian state that international community formulates.

PA wants Hamas to disarm the armed wing as they ultimately control the territory and they are powerful enough where security forces can't threaten them. If they insist, I can't predict what will happen. The talks and steps being taken are more serious than ever so something must come out of it.

They have more modern kit than I had seen in other media. Where do they get it?

It's not really that modern, besides a select couple thousand of special forces.

Hamas defensive live fire exercises(today):

These two pictures are pretty wild, considering the color of the uniform adopted by those playing prisoner. They're really getting down to details, even adding those silly balloon camo meshes the enemy wears on top of their helmets ey. The only things missing are the burgundy boots.

@Falcon29 , I'm sure you heard the rockets fired in this drill caused the southern Israeli sirens to go off and the Iron Dome was supposedly activated.

It was a result of these exercises last night, the rocket was fired into the sea earlier in the day:

The exercises are continuing until Friday, it's actually serious preparations for a popular march that will take place Friday on the border. To be prepared if Israel takes deadly measures against the unarmed demonstrators. Today they were conducting live mortar fire drills.

That armoured vehicle in the photo stands out. What exactly is it?

I think that it's a mock-up.
Israel will never let an armoured vehicle in the hands of Palestinians.

Thanks. Have any been captured?

I don't recall any having been captured, but Israel will surely never have Hamas running about with a weapon that can kill them in loads.
So if they did, the APC would have a bomb dropped on it.

It's a mock Israeli tank , training on disabling them and pursuing the soldiers .
