#1 "Hamas forces constructing a weapons storage facility under the local schoolhouse severed a water main"

Easy problem to solve - Israel can cut off all the water to Gaza and let the poor ham-asses dig in peace.

#2 But using their children as human shields is perfectly ok with the local residents.

What a sick cancer of a culture.

#3 They complained about the water main because:

They thought using a schoolhouse as a shield was OK or
They didn't dare complain about the school for fear of being labeled pro-Jew and attacked accordingly

I don't know which was the main motive. I hope the second, but I've not seen much to encourage me.

#8 Maybe it's a trade school? I mean, what else are they good at?

#9 What heavy US made weapons do they have and where do they get their ammunition?

Likely stuff they took from PA inventory (thanks, USDS). Ammo is either stuff from PA stock, coming from black-markets via Egypt, or from other... unexpected... sources.

#10 Blow up the ammo dump/school after school hours and when all inter mural activities are done for the night. It's a win-win, except for the water main damage.

#11 You gotta figure the school is more of a madrassa that what we normally think of as a place where boys and girls go to learn the three Rs. Most likely it's just for Gaza boys to go there and learn how recite passages from the Koran about killing Jews and infidels.

That would be a win-win, period, AP - the water main's was already damaged by the paleos. :-D

#13 I'm sure the IDF could take out the school in a night attack, or do the Paleos keep some kids in the school around the clock?

#14 Any "Children" in school at (Say) 3 AM, are legitimate combatants. Blast them.
