| MailOnline was invited to join IDF forces taking the fight to Hamas The second the foot-thick steel door of the armoured personnel carrier hissed open, throwing bright shards of light into a dust-filled cabin, the sounds of intense battle were all around us. MailOnline was exclusively invited to join IDF forces taking the fight to Hamas after the murderous events of October 7 when 1,400 Israelis and other nationals were slaughtered by the terrorists and more than 240 men, women and children taken hostage. The journey began with multiple checkpoints manned by Israeli troops who couldn't believe I and a small group of other journalists were heading into war-torn Gaza by choice. The IDF press cards we handed them didn't do much to change their mind that here were some crazy people. Khaki-covered heads were still shaking in disbelief in the early morning sun as the large steel gates began to move.

| #10 What they need to do: 1. Send down some sleeping gas, then get the hostages out. 2. Pump the place with colored gas to find any exits and seal them up. 3. Seal all entrances and let Hamas wake up knowing they are buried alive like rats. |

| #8 Flood it with H2S, not only will they not know it's there til they keel over, it'll destroy their ventilation system as well. It's heavier than air so it'll stay down there. |
