I agree with you that it isn't certain this will actually happen.

But it is what he is saying, and other countries are going to take this seriously.

It is 100% absolutely a possible thing the US military could do, if ordered to, and this didn't cause ... well, basically a post soviet union collapse style military loyalty breakdown/coup/treason/de facto secession clusterfuck.

If the fascists society of isisrael couldn't do it what makes you think america could when everything has to be shipped half way round the world?

Have you heard of the Gulf War?

Or the 2nd Iraq War?

Or the US Navy?

... How do you think all our shit got over there?

We sailed it and flew it over to Saudi Arabia, mainly, and staged it all there, I believe within something like 3 months.

Remember when Biden ordered the seabees to build a port for humanitarian aid, and that was done in like a month or less, and then he just kinda forgot about it?

The US is absolutely logistically capable of this.

Pete Hegseth runs the DoD.

Rules of Engagement? Eh, fuck em, warcrimes are legal, adopt the Israeli RoE, kill whoever you want.

Do you think an america abrams tank is going to fare any better than a merkava which was designed specifically for the conditions?

For starters, it doesn't need to 'fare better', it just needs to exist and be reasonably able to withstand IEDs and RPGs and drones.

Also, we've got the SEPv3 and TUSK variants, they're arguably more capable as tanks, only 'edge' the merkava has over an one of those Abrams is that they also hold some infantry....

But they went with that design and doctrine because they need every one of their tanks to also be a psuedo IFV, because they have far less vehicles overall:

The US has 5000 Abrams in active duty, 3600 in storage, reserves.

6.7k Bradleys

4.5k Strykers.

By comparison, Israel has about 400 to 500 Merkavas.

1360 of varying kinds of APC/IFVs.

The US could deploy roughly 1/15 of its existing heavy land combat vehicles and it would be the same quantity as the entire IDF.

We have more twice the number of tanks, in storage than the IDF has IFV/APCs.

... There's a reason we are 'The Great Satan.'

Do you think america can ship as many tanks as isisrael had a year and a half ago?

Yes, easily.

We very recently shipped a whole lot of HIMARS and other heavy vehicles to Ukraine.

Do you think american soldiers are any better trained than the idf? They will eat shit every bit as hard as the zionist entity did.

Yes. American soldiers are volunteers, many of whom make careers out of it. The IDF has mandatory military service for 2 years and thus has proportionally far more inexperienced conscripts.

Sure, there will be American casualties, but there are a lot more American soldiers and Marines than IDF infantry.

We also tend to have signidicantly more body armor on our average infantry than the IDF.

Oh right! I think the Army is also actually starting to get issued the new, higher caliber, longer ranged, Sig Spear / M7s, which pretty much outclass the IDF's 5.56 Tavors in every way.

american soldiers aren't raised to dehumanize and hate Gazans. They will have way bigger issues starving and murdering women and children than the idf. Most of them aren't chomping at the bit for genocide and if they are they want to do it closer to home. The reason for the war wasn't enough to keep the israelis fighting why would american troops be willing to fight and die for a pile of rublle the zionists weren't willing to fight for?

I very, very much hope you are right.

Unfortunately, most of the military people I've known, are pretty gung ho MAGAtards...

And its entirely possible that refusing to follow an order you don't agree with would court martial, military prison.
