Look at all the Moose-limbs RUN!!! (Mow 'em down!)
Cheers!
I just watched Martin Bashir anchor this evening's Nightline episode, and apparently my suggestions have made it to the top echelons of Israeli strategerismers.
The correspondandant said that they return fire at all out-going fire. They showed self-propelled howitzers, and interviewed some guy walking around a whole bevy of them in some sort of arrangement, and he said: "We hit what we shoot at w/in 3 meters. Hoah!
Dude, I think the Israeli's have it covered so far. I'm going to lay low on my next suggestion: injecting a slurry of Quick-crete/crushed radioactive-waste glass material into the HizD'oh Lah bunker network.
Wait, wait, wait. The PA said that these things don't exist. They didn't exist when Rachel Corrie was there or even when she was barely there and they don't exist now! I read it on Al Jazz so it must be true. /so
Much as they deserve it, I know libs that have accused the Israelis of genocide already, before this particular series of events.
Yes, but ........what if one of the pigs was Babe? Babe's worth a Brazilian bazillion of any Muslim swine.
Mercenaries arriving in Israel for the dangerous mission.
reefer ? poisonous gas ?
try partially filling these tunnels with acetelyne, then launch some munition (at a safe distance)
film it please, I'd like to see what happens
The real haul in smashing this bunker was probably alot of rockets, underground bunkers are the obvious place to store a couple thousand rockets, pop up shoot and disapear.
An Arc Light strike was the term used in Vietnam for a B-52 saturation bombing attack. Think lots of quickly-cleared jungle.
Yup...Flood the gophers.
"120 foot deep bunkers. Now we need a noah type flood."
What our boys used in the Pacific war were flame thrower tanks.
Abysmal ignorance? What ARE you talking aboout? You are one of the wittiest, knowledgeable gentlemen I have seen.
LOL. Arc Light is a term familiar to those who witnessed them bring the North Vietnamese scrambling to Paris for peace talks on the condition they would be ended. Nixon made the mistake of ending them. The bombs used were 750 or 1000 pounds .Each B52 could carry about 30x1000 pound bombs and often as many as 27 bombers were used successively over the target. If the bombs did not destroy deep bunkers, enemy soldiers still remained dazed for hours afterwards. The bombs were released from an altitude so high that the bombers could not be seen, and the effect was to literally plow up large rectangular areas of ground to a depth of about 50 feet with concussions so strong and rhythmic that they often drove the enemy insane.
Here's the dose:
Arc Light bombing mission impacting.
Operation Arc Light was the code name given to the use of B-52 strategic bombers in Southeast Asia.
In 1964 U.S. and South Vietnamese intelligence sources began to detect regular North Vietnamese Army (NVA) units operating in base areas inside the Republic of Vietnam. The U.S. military evaluated ways to counter this development, and the resulting proposals leaned heavily on the concepts of air mobility and airpower.
After World War II, even into the nuclear era of Massive Retaliation, the Air Force had maintained an interest in the use of heavy bombers in a conventional role. U.S. Air Force planners recognized that it would take massive amounts of concentrated firepower to disrupt troop concentrations in jungle areas. As the war in Southeast Asia intensified, the Air Force looked to the Strategic Air Command bomber fleet to provide this massed firepower and selected the B-52 Stratofortress for this role.
Good idea. When the acetelyne is ignited it will do 2 things:
1- Create a high pressure wave through the tunnels.
2- Consume all the available oxygen.
Oops, guess a blast that would detonate all the boobie traps & landmines, kill all the surface troops, plus seal the entrances to their tunnels wouldn't work, huh?
Don't know if they have the "MOP" ready yet...

>>>Who will be the brave crew to take the couple of days under battle conditions to set up the drilling equipment and drill the hole?
Sounds like a job for Bruce Willis and his asteroid-blasting crew.
This is a Maginot line, best approach is to go around it ... or in other words, send a piercing armor column in 10 miles surround it, so hezbollah gets no resupply or reinforcement, cut off communications, then take your time taking it out one by one...
This wont be a short war.
"They are going to have to come up with a way to detect these things. It seems to be a way of life over there. First it was Saddam and his underground bunkers and OBL and his tunnel systems. We have to find a way to not only detect them, but collapse them as well."
Seismic sensors can do this. and they can do it from the air.
(I think).
