Eylon Levy @EylonALevy:
Today’s revelation of Shifa Tunnels shines a spotlight on the @IDF’s professionalism and the media’s sensationalism.

This was filmed two days ago. For two days, we’ve faced criticism that the Shifa Terror Complex is all a big [supposed] “hoax.”

Patience pays.

At link is shown a video of a tunnel shaft being detonated by the IDF - and guess what happens then?! (AFAIK it is not the same tunnel discussed in this thread.)

[Libloather]

Fill it with cement after blowing it up.

[Dilbert San Diego]

Good idea. Seal it off permanently.

[ScaniaBoy]

Look at video in post #4 and tell me if you think one needs to fill that tunnel with cement?

[wildcard_redneck]

That footage reminds me of playing Doom back in 1995.

[Libloather]

That sumbich blew up in all directions. Fill it with cement.

From Israel National News:

“WaPo: Israel consindering flooding Gaza tunnels with seawater
Nov 19, 2023

The Washington Post reported on Sunday that Israel is considering using seawater to flood Hamas’ terror tunnels under the Gaza Strip.”

This has been discussed for weeks here at FR, so nothing new, but interesting if they do it. I assume the UN will explode in that case.... (but who cares?)

[Beowulf9]

Yeah, Gaza. So innocent.

[gas_dr]

That might create a rather large sink hole…then again this may be the intent

It is sad that so many people in the US are questioning our help and demanding that Israel be throttled by US political pressure.

EVERYTHING we pretend to be a cause or justification in Ukraine, is actually valid for Israel and not for Ukraine.

It is Israel with whom we have security agreements, three of them, plus a SOFA. It is that Israel that is a true republic, a democracy, a sovereign nation. It is Israel that was attacked. It is Israel that is facing off with an enemy bent on their destruction, unwilling to truly compromise (Rabin promised them almost everything they wanted, to the point where he himself was assassinated for going to far, and Arafat still said “no.”) Israel faces a foe that wants their nation destroyed and it’s people dead, literally.

Ukraine is about us building bases all along the Russian border and in what Russia sees as us lying about NATO East expansion, stripping away all their oil producing frontier nations (Syria, Venezuela, Iraq and Libya), us having left the ballistic missile treaty and ignoring Minsk. Russia didn’t even really want this war, they see it as a national security threat and this war would have NEVER happened had we not tried to expand NATO into Ukraine. This caused a war and it was 100% avoidable, it was simply a political gamble: https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/ukrainian-president-zelenskiy-holding-talks-with-biden-adviser-says-2021-12-09/

Meanwhile Israel is faced with a threat where no promise or agreement means anything, they were surprise attacked, their enemy does want their destruction, and they did not provoke this conflict... EVERYTHING we talk about regards Ukraine which is not entirely true, actually is true with Israel, and you have protests against them.

*** Today you see protests against support for Israel, demanding Israel back off, blaming Israel for the conflict, focused on the collateral damage caused by Israel... and with Ukraine you have, or at least had for almost 2 years, a blank check and total US public support with one sided media coverage and even mass censorship.

I don’t see the Israeli flags going up today, but if there is a nation we owe anything too (contractual, morally, or because they are culturally tied to us), Israel would be one of them.

America is a nation where you can tell the people there are 68 different genders (https://www.healthline.com/health/different-genders#what-gender-identity-is) or that the notion of God is silly but they should believe that aliens seeded the earth because that’s more believable (https://www.forbes.com/sites/startswithabang/2021/04/07/was-life-on-earth-brought-here-from-an-alien-system/?sh=2be2ab6264e2) and many people will believe it. You can tell Americans pretty much anything and as long as you tell them using faux science, use lots of repetition, target their racial/ethnic/sex/age demographic, use bandwagon and celebrity endorsement it’ll get traction, ESPECIALLY if you can create an emotional story. In America, emotions win over reason almost always. Sad and telling reality about us. The basis or substance behind the argument is less important.

The Palestinians have the emotional story.

In 2021 Hamas leader said they have 311 miles of underground tunnels.

Amazing.

Stupid CNN added: That is a little less than half of the length of the New York City subway system.
As if the good ol’ freedom fighter terrorists aren’t so sneaky after all.

@IsraelWarRoom:

Joint IDF and ISA announcement: Fortified Terror Tunnel Exposed Underneath the Shifa Hospital Complex Based on IDF and ISA intelligence, IDF troops exposed a 55-meter-long terror tunnel 10 meters deep underneath the Shifa Hospital complex.

A deep staircase leads to the entrance of the tunnel shaft, which consists of various defense means including a blast-proof door and a firing hole. This type of door is used by the Hamas terrorist organization to block Israeli forces from entering the command centers and the underground assets belonging to Hamas. The tunnel shaft was uncovered in the area of the hospital underneath a shed alongside a vehicle containing numerous weapons including RPGs, explosives, and Kalashnikov rifles. IDF and ISA forces are continuing to uncover the route of the tunnel.

First thing Hamas will do, show babies, dead or alive...

[faucetman]

Gaza residents must be happy to find out that their government spent all of its money building and maintaining useless tunnels!

Hey, muzzies. How are those tunnels working out for ya?

[faucetman]

YES! Even just LOOKING at another woman (or her photo) is definitely cheating.

Also THINKING about another woman is cheating, but harder to prove.

[healy61]

Every employee at the hospital knew of the tunnels. How could they not.
