I am confused on this.

They simultaneously get only 47 days of training.

But somehow they've got Mussad level training.

Please make it make sense.

They certainly do not appear to have a high level or training in any video I have ever seen

    They're not being trained to be elite troops the way that people mythologize the IDF who somehow managed to miss all of the warnings about October the 7th and can't tell the difference between a baby and a bomb.

    They're being trained to be the enforcers of apartheid. Racistly motivated government shock troops don't have to be competent or capable they just have to be cruel and follow orders.

    probably goes on a pace like: days 1-3: know your enemy (non-white people). days 4-9: how to hide your face so you cannot be prosecuted for your crimes. days 10-26: lectures on why oct 7 2023 was worse than the holocaust itself. days 27-37: using heavy ordinance at the firing range. days 38-42: how to steal property, particularly women's undergarments. days 43-47: final racism seminar
