“The current situation of the land forces is tragic, they are not ready for war. Emergency supplies are not available, exercises have stopped and the battalions have not trained in years. There is also no weapons training and education, and the army is not capable of carrying out an attack.” The former ombudsman added that technology alone is not enough to win wars. “The truth is that an imaginary reality has been created by the general staff and spread throughout the army. The soldiers have lost their motivation and fighting spirit in recent years, and many are not ready to go into battle.”

Good morning! That bit I bolded has got to be an exaggeration right? Or is the IDF just some sort of failing indoctrination program?

Uncritical support to any IDF soldiers who learn how to frag an officer.

It's possible. Might be an exaggeration but also entirely possible for this army. They have to set aside some time to learn tactics to terrorize Palestinians you know, and boot camp only lasts so long.

Just over the past two weeks there's been at least 5 reports of the IDF shooting at each other by mistake.

and boot camp only lasts so long.

Shit, if they're using our tactics, it probably lasts south of 3 months tops; with no more than another 3 for whatever tech training equivalent they've got.

Critical support to the bad tactics

I've heard rumors of these but have not seen a single article about it. Do you have one handy?

Here's just one video: https://t.me/GazaNewsPlus/3863 (settler shot by either another settler or IDF). This channel generally catalogues them but it's all in French. I can try searching for more posts but I'm not sure which keywords they used in the posts.
