Knowing history of urban battles, it will be long and bloody process. You talking room by room, stair by stair, toilet by toilet type shootouts which will burnout units in days of intense combat.

Yes urban combat definitely has its own challenges. But knowing the country you're invading inside out is half the battle.

Israel fought many of its neighbours many times over, in enemies' territories some more. Their soldiers are well-trained and well-equipped for low-intensity urban conflicts.

Also they have complete air superiority, they don't have to comb room-by-room when they could just launch a precision air-strike. collateral damage is another issue to consider..

True, but israeli men and women have compulsory military service, they could call up many reservists. that + Uncle Sam readily supply munitions

Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.

Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.

Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.
