Amazing real time video of Gaza CQB battle between 3 soldiers and 2 Terrorists

The IDF captain RUSHED the terrorist about to pop a grenade, PICKED HIM UP (the terrorist) and threw him on the terrorists OWN grenade, killing the terrorist and saving himself and his squad.

Its all in hebrew, the Red Circles are the two terrorists, the Blue circles highlight the Israeli soldiers. They have no idea they are within feet of each other.

You can clearly see the Israeli soldier rushing the terrorists position with his side arm out and shield himself with the live terrorist! They show that part twice.

I like the studio they're in... the reporters...

It's like Sportscenter... but grittier.

hot damn!

I just realized that Hebrew isn't that far off from Arabic.

A lot of basic Arabic words come from Hebrew. None of the words you heard in that clip are shared with Arabic however I don't think.

Its mostly curse words and simple words like We, you, mom, dad, everyone, that are shared between the languages. Specific nouns aren't shared unless they are modern nouns derived from the west such as Television, Radio, internet, etc.

Modern Hebrew is 90% Ancient Hebrew, 90% of the curse words in Hebrew are 100% Arabic (as there is no cursing words in the bible obviously) and the other 9 % is again modern words mostly from English

If you wake up next to an Israeli women in Tel-Aviv and she sees you getting dressed she may say "olahy atah rotezeh Quicky" "You down for a quicky". Quicky is used, OK has almost completely replaced the Hebrew version of OK which is beseder. Shit is a common Hebrew word now as is "fuck it"

Hebrew like Japanese now has at least one English word per sentence when people especially young people speak with one another.

The News Cast is very formal Hebrew. No shit or Arabic words.

Arabic sounds much prettier then Hebrew and is actually in my opinion one of the most beautiful langauges along with Italian and Japanese.

Hebrew has a lot of the Ch sound pronounced like in "Le Chaim" "To life" while Arabic is spoken more from the Gut in which the CH sound Hebrew uses is replaced with a gut proudced HA sounded.

Example of difference in a standard but identical greeting

Arabic "Salam alahkeim, Wahlekim Salam

That greeting comes from the 3,000 year old Jewish greeting of

"SHalom Alcechiem, Aleichem Shalom"

The same exact greeting.

Believe it or not Israelis use the term "Inshallah" in Arabic to say G-d willing.

Two Israelis could be chatting, "man I'm hoping to hook up with that girl tonight" his friend will reply "Inshallah"'


Are there any linguists here on TWL? I wonder what you're thoughts are on the Arabic Language, its really a beautiful langauge.

The Standard Arabic that is taught in schools Internationally is Egyptian Arabic, but the truest form of original Arabic comes from the Southern tip of the Arabian Peninsula like in nations from Yemen. Linguists in Israel have determined that the Hebrew spoken by Yemenite Jews in Israel while is word for word the same as all hebrew is actually prounounced the exact same way it was over 3,000 years ago.

Anyway the Soldier who reacted the way he did recieved a medal of merit. In Israel the goverment doesn't really hand out a lot of medals like they do in the US but this guy reacted so quick that he stunned the terrorist saved his squad and himself and killed the terrorist with hiw own grenade. OBviously this was training and quick thinking .

In the IDF as in most armies they teach you that if a grenade is thrown at you, you hit the dirt and try to roll a few feet away from it as most grenades blow up in a Mushroom fashion in terms of the fragments from the blast.

This officer saw the terrorist pulling the pin to throw another grenade so without any hesistation he rushed the SOB not giving him time to count the seconds while the officer probably counted the nade count in his head, man handled the Terrorist and threw him on his own grenade.

Is that just ulitmate justice!

Btw this officer was a reservist!

Here is a Yemenite Jew singing in Yemenite Arabic. This song became very famous internationally later and was sampled by Eric B and Rakin and Snoop Dog both of which were sued for unauthorized permission of use of teh song.

This is how proper Arabic should sound. Vocal tests were done on this singer Ofra Haza (who did the soundtrack for Prince OF Egypt) and it was determined that she could hit notes no other modern Western Diva could hit.

Clearly no one in the video was bunny-hopping or wall-hacking.

Come Yeats, I know your position on Israel and I respect (of course I disagree with it) but this is stricly a thread detailing an amazing CQB battle in which a man went above and beyond the call of duty.

Seriously you can't watch this video and just appreciate what this officer did for his men? You do realize Israeli soldiers are drafted at age 18 right? They don't sign up for the army, the get draft cards their last year in high school.

GAS, thanks for sharing that video of Ofra Baza. I've been YouTubing her all morning. Damn shame she died at only 43 years old.

Think this was more of just somebody wanting to go home to his family at the end of the day. A hero for sure.

I know I would never trust you in combat or when it counts. The bottom line is that you have no honor and you arent the "good person" you attempt to perpetrate on these forums with threads about "mom and dad" or your kids while you purposely fuck up threads about men who's lives are in the balance over accusations of murder and rape. The very men you just said you appreciate - yeah right. You're garbage aria. No class at all.

.......

i think he meant that he just realized they were related languages. arabic is to hebrew what spanish is to italian. theyre closely related and if you already know one you'll have an easy time learning the other.


heres a question for you. when is a dialect no longer a dialect but another language?

Alphabet perhaps? ohh and Arabic and Hebrew not related like Spanish and Italian those two languages are almost identical.

That is a pretty instinctual move. That is just human adrenaline under strict control. Its amazing what some human beings can do in such split second moments.

He obviously didn't have time to think so this was a natural ability he possessed to do that. He didn't really think of being a hero as that doesn't come into thought in that situation. He in almost a second time naturally decided to select himself to live and did it with perfection.

I wonder if and when we know more about DNA and genetic traits if we can ever identify scientifically how a human being can do something like that so instantly. It almost looks inhuman to me the speed and accuracy at which he did this. Obviously you can't train someone to do this.

well then spanish and french. my point is that they came from the same source, not that they're near identical.

and the answer is when they can no longer understand each other.

Well how much of not understanding one another? My friend is Italian from Naples but she can understand most of Spanish but probably doesn't classify herself as a SPanish speaker. Yet SPanish and Italian are two different languages.

because even tho they're so similar a spanish person cant converse with an italian and vice versa. czech and polish are near identical too but i couldn't speak to a czech if i met one.

in anycase, arabic and hebrew are closely related. Theyd be siblings if they were people.
