Report: Hamas digging 10 kilometers of tunnels per month toward Israel
Jerusalem Post ^ | 7/28/16 | JPost Staff

Posted on 07/28/2016 9:55:58 AM PDT by DeoVindiceSicSemperTyrannis

Hamas is digging 10 kilometers (six miles) of tunnel each month toward Israel, a senior security official told Channel 2 on Wednesday. Construction continues despite several tunnel collapses in recent months.

A senior diplomatic source went on to say that Israel has no perfect solution to the tunnel problem, and neither does any other country.

The news comes amid controversy regarding Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's readiness to combat the tunnel issue. Netanyahu pushed back on Monday against claims that his government was unprepared for the threat of cross-border tunnel raids from Gaza in the lead-up to the 2014 war, saying that they are “the opposite of the truth.”

The discovery in April of a tunnel leading from southern Gaza into Israel, and subsequent progress in detection in other areas, means Israel has obtained the precise ability to know where Hamas’s tunnels snake their way underground.

Take more of their land for good with every tunnel they dig. That is an act of war.

Of course, there is NO chance that any of that $150 BILLION given to Iran by our traitor masquerading as president is paying for the concrete to build those tunnels, eh?

Find them with ground penetrating radar and use bunker busters

Dig a big ditch from the Mediterranean.

Bring irrigation water in and use some of it to flood the Hamas and Hezbollah tunnels.

Let’s look at this in a positive way and bring about a productive solution. Hamas is simply trying to provide Israel with a sophisticated sanitation system. Israel should thank Hamas for the underground tunnels and begin filling the said tunnels immediately with all their hazardous waste.

sadly enough—one side must win—the other side lose. No more UN cease fires to save the children. Think—If (and When) the Islamic groups win—will they be stopped by the UN—NO! It will be a blood bath—all will die-—The Jews will cease to exist in the Middle East. Once the Arabs take over Israel, they will start killing each other! It will be a worse holocaust than the One in Nazi Germany! This done with guns and swords, Machetes, and fire. Israel must set aside civilization and become as Terrible as the Islamic fanatics. Only mass death can avert the awful end of Israel.

Flood with sewer effluent.

Israel needs to ELIMINATE these Satanic mass-murderers...
Tell any innocent civilians to go home to Egypt and then bulldoze Gaza...stop trying to be so damned humanitarian, you are not dealing with humanitarian people ..you’re dealing with devil-worshippers who are taught from birth to KILL YOU....you can’t civilize them by being patient, kind, considerate, compassionate, loving, caring, charitable, generous, or anything else that’s good and holy

the Carthage treatment is MORE than FULLY justified but instead I would just move your own citizens in...its your land Israel, take it back, stop giving your tiny homeland away... build homes for your people there

A heavy duty shaker truck from the oil patch might help in this situation.

And Israeli neighbors are complaining to the police and government about the pounding under their houses and apts. and being ignored.

That’s what happened the last time.

Underground Fence, made of a series of well points, 8-10 foot
on center. Use a extra large pump to force water, at different depths to neutralize tunnels. Drown a few rats!

Find them, wait for them to cross the border, then apply an adaptation of the Rodenator, Caddyshack style.

If they can figure out the depth and trajectory, dig intersecting holes holes, fill with explosives and clear the area. The should kill a few and damage the digging equipment.

Has Israel no septic tanks, no pump out service? All that liquid and no place to put it?

Hey! Wait a minute ...
