More than 160 fighter jets drop some 450 missiles on 150 targets in northern Gaza Strip

The Israeli military targeted Gaza's terrorist tunnel network Thursday night with a massive bombardment that the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said was the first combined use of air and ground forces since the fighting between Gaza terrorists and Israel began.

There was some confusion as to whether Israel had authorized a ground invasion of the Hamas-ruled coastal enclave but it turns out that the ground support was from outside of Gaza's border.

The 40-minute campaign, which started around midnight, saw more than 160 fighter jets, alongside infantry, artillery and armored forces, attacking about 150 targets in the northern Gaza Strip.

Pump it full of seawater. Flood the entire system. The salt water would destroy any electronic equipment stored underground. It would also drown any “rats” occupying those tunnels.

Apparently the talk of a ground invasion was a ruse to get them down into the tunnels, which the IAF collapsed on top of them, with the IDF tanks and artillery killing the survives as they attempted to crawl out. I find it delightful, if true.

The Palestinians are the sad sacks of the world.

From all that I can tell any rigging in Gaza elections is not from the Hamas side, but from the more moderate terrorists of Fatah. Who have been gradually losing power to the extremists and losing favor due to their own widely recognized corruption. And who have been blocking further elections for years because they’re confident they’d lose. When Hamas wins big there I believe it.

I’m not denying they’re EVIL. But I’m confident in Gaza they are sincere about it. Probably in similar proportions to concentration camp guards and SS troopers under Hitler. And would treat them accordingly.
