Will the Warmists, who are mostly Leftists who hate Jews, applaud them for this?
Israeli troops use medieval-style trebuchet weapon in fighting at Lebanon border
Israeli troops stationed on the Lebanese border fired a medieval-style siege weapon known as a trebuchet amid recent fighting against Hezbollah militants, an Israeli military official confirmed to NBC News.
Video of the weapon hurling a fireball emerged Thursday, sparking equal measures of confusion and amusement in Israel, even as Israeli troops and Hezbollah were locked in some of the most intense fighting of the war.
The six-second video shows Israeli troops looking on as the trebuchet — which largely disappeared from the battlefield in the 15th century — fires a flaming projectile over a fortified wall. One soldier is seen holding a fire extinguisher in case something were to go awry.
An Israeli military official, speaking on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly, said the weapon is not part of the IDF’s standard arsenal and is believed to have been built by reservist soldiers stationed on the border.
The official said that while the weapon was not sanctioned by military leadership, the troops were fulfilling a legitimate military task of burning away thick shrubbery along the border where Hezbollah fighters sometimes hide.
The weapon will not be used again, the official added. The Israel Defense Forces did not respond to a request for a formal comment.
Seriously, clearing a free-fire zone around a defensive position is a common practice in most militaries. This is not unusual but the cleverness makes me smile. And it is almost carbon neutral!

Mr Teach typed: the Warmists, who are mostly Leftists who hate Jews
Unite the Right Rally, Aug 11-12, 2017, Charlottesville VA: “Jews Won’t Replace Us!!”
Then-president Donald J. Trump spoke of ‘some very fine people on both sides’.
Do ‘very fine people’ march with torches shouting “Jews Won’t Replace Us!!“?
Fuck you, liar, and your Unified Reich.
Well bless your little heart.
There were a few people at the one rally the distinguished Mr Dowd continually mentions, because there are so very few examples of anti-Semitism on the right. There most certainly are conservatives who are anti-Semitic, but their numbers and percentages pale in comparison to the anti-Semites on the left.
I don’t know: perhaps you believe that all of those pro-‘Palestinian,’/ pro-Hamas rallies and ‘encampments’ and building occupations on college campuses, primarily the Ivy League schools, were being held by the College Republicans?
Mr Dana makes up some scheisse! There most certainly are conservatives who are anti-Semitic, but their numbers and percentages pale in comparison to the anti-Semites on the left.
We appreciate that our reich-wing brethren and cistern pretend for a bit that they NOW support Jews. Maybe it will stick, maybe not.
The Unified Reich (anti-Semites, neoNazis, white nationalists, Proud Boys etc) rally in Charlottesville reached the highest levels of the MAGA revolution.
In contradistinction, President Biden, while supporting the right of the pro-Palestinians to demonstrate, did not support their anti-Semitism and still supported Israel’s right to defend itself. The young nitwits espousing hatred for Jews were the outliers. Over 100 protesters have been arrested.
Mr Dana and Mr Teach likely feel American Jews are pretty stupid since they vote 70-80% for Democrats (leftist anti-Semites). There are 9 Jewish US Senators – none are Republicans. Of the 27 Jewish House members, 2 are Republicans. Currently, our Supreme Court consists of six Catholics, two Protestants, and one Jew.
Why do Jews vote for anti-Semites while ignoring the Jew-loving Unified Reich?
Repubs make the same accusation against Black voters – why do they vote for the Democrats who oppress them?
TL;DNR
Pretty sure it’s nothing but lies and half-truths combined with rhetorical nonsense, a Rimjob (aka SMD) specialty.
It is amazing how much Kool Aid you have drank since 2017 Dowd.
You said: Then-president Donald J. Trump spoke of ‘some very fine people on both sides’.
What Trump really said: “There were very fine people on both sides, & I’m not talking about the Neo-nazis and white supremacists because they should be condemned totally.”
The “very fine people” quote from Trump is a “hoax” in that the reference by leftists always leaves off the full quote. “In other words, the president believed there were non-racists in attendance who support keeping historical monuments,” the blog post states. Strauss said this “hoax” is “a lie that is tearing our country apart.
MONUMENTS and STATUES were being torn down at a historic pace.
People continue to debunk this quote as an outright lie and distortion and people like Dowd keep on keeping on using it to tear the country apart, believing racism is the only way they can win an election.
Remember this voters. Black people and Hispanics are flocking to Trump. Trump is not racist. He does not encourage racism. He encourages Nationalism which means putting America first. PUTTING AMERICAN CITIZENS FIRST.
FROM NEWSWEEK. Historically in bed with Democrats.
But it’s not just Black Americans. Hispanic voters, too, are poised to give Trump historically high numbers. And of course, it’s not just the injustice. Top of mind for many minority voters flipping for Trump is immigration. For all the talk of the white working class being Trump’s base, it’s minorities who have been asked to bear the brunt of President Biden’s open border policy.
These people understand Trump and the GOP are not racists.
MAGA should be changed to MAFA…..MAKE AMERICA FUNCTIONAL AGAIN!!!
By burning away brush, the evil Jooooos released CO2 into the atmosphere! That is most certainly a war crime!
That’s what I was thinking. Since when did launching fireballs into brush become “carbon Neutral”?
The extremist Mr Teach believes every action is about global warming!!
The impact of the launched fireballs on CO2 is negligible. The burning of brush, while releasing CO2 from the plants is a short term issue, since the plants had recently captured CO2 and will recapture CO2 as they regrow. In contrast, the potential CO2 of fossil fuels has been locked up for hundreds of millions of years.
In Vietnam the US sprayed chemical defoliants (Agent Orange) to the same effect, while also targeting food crops (Agent Blue) and grasses/rice (Agent White). The CDC, US National Academy of Medicine and the US Health Service all concluded that Agent Orange contaminated with 2,3,7,8-tetracholorodibenzo-p-dioxin caused cancers and other medical disorders in those exposed.
Day 265 of the war
Neither Israel nor Hamas care about the huge civilian casualties in Gaza
Over 700 dead in Israeli IDF/Shin Bet/police on a per capita basis this would equal 22000 dead in USA. Israel has no exit plan.
Israel claims to have killed 10000 Hamas fighters, out of a male “military aged” Palestinian population of about 500000.
Israel knew that by weakening the more moderate Palestinian Authority in Gaza, that Hamas would take control. Divide and conquer does have a down side.
To really mess up the atmosphere they just need to cook cause cooking like automobiles is really bad for the atmosphere.
Ya know science and experts and shit.
