"Knock on the roof". The IDF's weird style of warfare...



The above vid shows the "knock on the roof" technique that the IDF has been employing lately.

I'm paraphrasing but it works a little like this.  First they attack the target with some type of inert munition that supposedly lets the bad guys know that they're going to get blasted in the next few minutes and then they're attacked with a real bomb or missile.

Are you fucking kidding me?

This is a weird way to conduct warfare.  Does the IDF have clear objectives?  If you have no clear objectives then you should not be launching missiles.  If your objective is "hearts and minds" or some other touchy feely nonsense then you should find some method other than warfare to achieve your goals.

This is how Israel will lose it all.  Once the IDF was serious.  Now?  I'm not so sure.
