I’m not prepared to give Stringbean that level of capability of thought.

Being filled now - could take weeks to fill completely. Sharks would have to go through the pumps.

Wasn’t built to shelter Gaza’s citizens, was it?

Right because all Gaza citizens are Hamas or Hamas supporters. There are no “innocent civilians.”

Yep, a whole lot of dirt went somewhere.

Limestone used to build buildings on the surface

I don’t believe the labor put into those tunnels was done by management or those running the show. Do you?

The labor put into building anything in America is not done by management or by those “running the show”.

Did Donald Trump build Trump Tower? Of course not, if by that is meant “did Donald Trump do any of the construction labor?”

Regarding the Hamas tunnels: clearly, the “people in charge” aren’t idiots, and the laborers clearly aren’t incompetent.

Don’t underestimate your enemy.

Remember: Japanese fighter pilots in 1942 weren’t a bunch of squint-eyed fools who couldn’t fly their way out of a paper bag. On the contrary, they were at least as well trained as American fighter pilots in 1942, and much more experienced.

“Evil” is not synonymous with “stupid” or “incompetent”.

That may be, but from the video I saw, the carts/trucks were hauling ground up limestone from the huge drills. But just some water and quick lime, and bricks and blocks are easy to make. And Gaza is mostly flat.

Though much larger, most of the west bank has rockier desert terrain. Tunnel digging is likely tougher.

I never at any time liked him or his songs.

When he was starting out he was walking down an aisle in a restaurant not noticing he was walking past Bob Dylan. He said to Springsteen: “They tell me you’re the new me. You’d better start being you. I’m already me.”
