During the ground offensive IDF soldiers have also exposed a tunnel camouflaged under a bathroom.

Inside a house in the neighborhood of Shuja'iyya in Gaza a tunnel shaft was found under the sink, in between the sewage pipes and the cleaning supplies. According to IDF assessments this tunnel was not originally destined to aid terrorists with infiltration to Israel, but was built for a different destination.

This is a command and control tunnels which connects between different destinations inside Gaza Strip, in order to enable Hamas activists to hide inside it for longer periods of time, without being exposed to attacks and dangers above ground.

Pump some serious smoke thru them and see the smoke rising from the houses. Then take them out with F16’s.

Thousands of crates of C4 would be a more permanent solution for a year or so.

True, but the CS is much easier to distribute AND it reveals the entire network... at least until they start installing airtight bulkheads.

Actually, C4 explodes too fast, about 26,000fps. For tunnels, you need a slower "PUSH" rather than a sharp blast.

ANFO or Composition B work better for tunnels. Fuel/Air works well, too.

“Years ago I used to blow up anthills using oxygen and acetylene.”

Kill a terrorist leader, then FAE the funeral procession.

Rather than “blow up” why not pump huge amounts of argon gas. It’s heavier that O2, settles in the low lying areas. It absorb the O2. Anyone in a low lying area with argon simply suffocates - quickly...

I just heard on NPR that the only reason there are tunnels is for peaceful trade. They only need the tunnels because the border crossings are closed. NPR and Hamas wouldn’t lie would they?

I suggested the same thing on another forum.

Muslims remind me of fire ants. Not good for anything and will swarm and bite at the least provocation.

Good analogy.

So you would kill the infants, the children, and everyone in Gaza just because they MIGHT become Hamas one day.

I understand you now.

That is Genocide. Which is a war crime.

No, genocide is when you go into a peaceful people and destroy their culture, cl society, and kill them all. That is what Hamas wants to do to Israel. It is their charter. Hamas is Gaza. Gaza is Hamas.
