the scorched wreckage of the six transformers at Gaza’s only power station

The Israelis are only trying to cut power for a short amount of time and have showed great restraint in this strike. A transformer yard can be fixed quite quickly. The "months" figure stated by the Palestinian is a lie, unless his crews are really lazy.

If you really want to stop a power plant you put a penetrator into the station itself. If you bust up the concrete floor the generators sit on the whole plant has to be rebuilt.

Ever see the Next Generation Star Trek where they encounter a really stupid, lazy race that survives by ripping off technology that they don't really understand, and strong-arming others to maintain?

It will take "months" to repair, as long as Hamas funds are locked up because of their own bad choices.

Transformers of the size and power, that is referred to in this statement, are special order things, they are not a typical over-the-counter items....but the ironic thing of all this,it that some infidel, in a technically advanced, western sociality, will have to build the transformers
