I don't know the protocol for posting youtube videos, so correct me if I am doing something wrong.

I posted comments in the comment section of the video, I was in the middle of this project. I was slated for being an officer in the new unit we said should have been created. Then once it was up and running, when it came time for Sholmo Baum to hang off command, I would have taken over command. The unit would have been the most important anti terror unit in Israel. Looking back the timing would have been, I would have command of the unit for about 9 to 10 months before day 1 of the intifada.

But Sharon who 100% backed us, was out and that was the end of it.

Then in the middle of the first intifada in 100% pure panic, the idiots took one idea from a multi hundred page document and then misused it, that being the Ruger 10-22's. The idea was to create cripples out of the ring leaders, for cripples are the most abused people in the Palestinian society. We would have broke the back of the intifada before it gathered steam.

What optic would have been issued? Didn't realize that physical weakness is preyed upon by the Palestinians. Is that a trait unique to Palestinian militants or other Muslim groups?

I want to clear up it isn't the terrorist only that view defective people as not worth anything it is the whole Palestinian society. I also thing it is the greater Arab society as well.

Regarding optic for the gun, I honestly don't remember what we thought about using. If I remember correctly the one we got our hands on for testing had a fixed 4 power scope on it.

Don't forget that the Palestinian leadership rewarded the guys that dug the tunnels with execution so that they won't reveal the tunnel locations. Their value of life apparently isn't too high.

And that, boys and girls, is how you conduct psyops.

I remember hearing in the 90s that Israel was using 10/22s as a sniper rifle but without any context. I was seriously at a loss to understand their sniper program and just assumed they were kinda "idiots" when it came to some stuff. I thought they were trying to do something like long distance precise head shots with little or no collateral damage in a crowd.

Now I actually get it. Live link vid.

Great video, thanks for posting.

Didn’t they also employ M1 carbines for such purposes?

Not at all. M1 carbines were carried by police and volunteers in the police. But far from the towns and cities of the Palestinians

Even if one of the bastards were wounded during fighting, they were ostracized? That wouldnt have been a badge of honor?
