What about stink bombs (sulfer) or hot steam pumped through the caves?

fill the bunker complex with smoke or CS gas or some other form of disabling substance.Could someone explain what CS gas is?
To: blam
Well, I have a little gas and I would like to do whatever possible to contribute to the war effort.
Just pull my finger.....
If you don't think it's deadly, just ask my friend that I carpool with.

Wasn"t there a article a couple of days ago here that said OBL had purchased thousands of gas masks and hazmat outfits. Couldn't they just put them on and sit and wait for the gas to clear?

"Couldn't they just put them on and sit and wait for the gas to clear?" We don't know what kind of gas they may pump in there. May be it will explode, huh?

Sure...they could do that. We could also introduce a gas to disable the masks...clog the filters...wonder how many spares they have?

"John McCarthy who works for an American company, Berco Services of Houston, Texas, which specialises in horizontal drilling, said: If you know where the entrance to the caves is, you could drill a hole 20in in diameter through solid rock for up to two miles at the rate of 1,000ft a day."
To do this you will need drilling mud. When you hit the caves just keep pumping. A few days and the whole damn thing is filled up.

Squirt in a few thousand gallons of that expanding insulating foam...
Would be a Pulitzer to capture the expressions on Al-quadas' faces!

What about stink bombs (sulfer) or hot steam pumped through the caves?Now that's a real intellectual solution. "Stink bombs and blowing steam?"
Ass-breath
Four SAS guys have several holes in their bodies, and you think *war* is a big friggin joke.

not if the gas displaces oxygen.

Drugs, Alcohol, Firearms and Tobacco-- sock it to 'em and tax them heftily for the pleasure!
To: mathurine
This idea should work, since they already had a succesful trial run at Waco

To do this you will need drilling mud.I doubt this is the way they are going to do it unless they are very sure that they have located the precise cave and that a frontal assault would be too difficult.
But if they decide to drill, it wouldn't be necessary to use drilling mud. Air drilling would work fine for a few thousand feet of rock.
It's very loud, though, and there would be no element of surprise. More than likely, the noise would cause the inhabitants to make a run for it long before the cave was penetrated.

personally, I like my concrete foam (sprayed, expands, hardens) "sealing the entrances" idea.
