BUahahahahahahahahahaha!
“ Hamas terrorists remain embedded in the strip like ticks”
The little ones are fleas
Flood or napalm the tunnels.....
Wait them out - eventually trade hostages for food
sigh. if they have those hostages down in those tunnels, they will have to go get them. hand to hand tunnel rat fighting is costly. God’s speed to the good guys. may God preserve the hostages.
Systematic interrogation will be the key in this fight. Identifying ALL of the Hamas fighters and supporters, block by block. House by house.
It will take two battalions of intelligence personnel to screen, interrogate, process, analyze and target the whole lot.
What this means is Palestinians are more afraid of Hamas than the IDF. This is the side of Hamas the Palestinian supporters ignore.
Actually, this is encouraging as there are some peace loving Palestinians who view Hamas as evil.
I think that one of the little understood facts is how much radical terrorists are hated by other Muslim countries. Where radical Palestinians have been allowed to flee, they have fomented revolutions to overthrow governments of the countries that have given them sanctuary. That is why Jordan, Egypt and other countries do not want refugees; they are afraid that the refugees will be contaminated with terrorists.
Again, it is nice to hear that there are some who just want to relocate to a peaceful place to live their lives and that they will turn against terrorists to achieve that.
Do whatever it takes to get those hostages out FIRST and THEN take care of anything left.
I sincerely feel for the hostages. However most of them know that while they can hold hope for their rescue, the reality is that they also know what animals their captors are and how those captors feel about human lives.
The only real hope that the hostages have is that when Hama$$ realizes that the IDF is simply blowing up any tunnel they find without investigating what is down there, Hama$$ will remove the hostages to a non-tunnel holding area rather than lose their only bargaining chip.

Nitrogen. Non-toxic, heavier than plain air, cheap. Their deep tunnels have to have ventilation intakes. Find ‘em.
BUahahahahahahahahahaha!
“Many have hidden in the matrix of tunnels, which has been an operational concern for the IDF. They’re booby-trapped. It’s nearly impossible to see, and some tunnels are 250+ feet underground.”
How did they dig all those tunnels without being observed? Seems like that’s a lot of dirt to dispose of.
