The Israeli Air Force bombed 40 mosques in Gaza Tuesday night, July 30, in the most extensive operation against Hamas religious institutions-cum-military bases so far. In total, at least 50 mosques have been blown up along with their stockpiles of rockets and arms caches.
These concentrated air strikes on rocket arsenals are as integral to Operation Protective Edge as the ground work in destroying tunnels. They have been stepped up in advance of the preparations launched by the government on Wednesday for the possible termination of the IDF ground operation in the Gaza Strip and the withdrawal of troops. debkafile's sources say that the order to end the ground operation in Gaza would not mean that the war is over. There are no illusions about the Palestinian extremist groups laying down their arms. In practical terms, therefore, Israeli troops will regroup and spread out along the border as a barrier against future Hamas attempts to keep up its terror offensive by means of cross-border commando raids using undiscovered tunnels and firing rockets and mortars into Israel.

“Debka? Is any other source reporting this?”
I just saw it here, but thought that it would be interesting to those closely following the war.
Debka has predicted like 11 of the last 3 important things, but sometimes they do have good stuff...Cum grano salis

I think some imams got a message from the “other side” that the virgin demand can’t keep up with the number of reprobates the IDF is sending over “there”, so the imams are pissed... Nothing more than that... High concentration of 72-virgin eligibles in Mosques... Doncha know...

heh... I too am taking this with a grain of salt.
If DEBKA said the sky was blue, I’d go outside and verify it.

That's a good idea.
Impale them with concrete minaret replicas.

A Muslim bomb cache blowing up is “one of the prettiest sounds on Earth”, to borrow a partial quote.
