#1 So Hamas has just been killing the hostages. No wonder they won't accept any "cease fire for hostages" deal. The hostages are dying or dead.

How barbaric can you get. And great thanks to Israel for ridding us of people who do things like this.

Looking at all the miles of tunnels on top of tunnels, the public has been shown so far. The HAMAS basically built a mini Subway system on par with many EU small cities. So riddle me this simple question.

How was the disposal of the 1000s of TONS dug out of the earth accomplished for this engineering feat accomplished? While keeping the so-called Palestinian government leadership from being aware?

BTW: Since blowing up the tunnels only still makes it easier to rebuild, than originally done, by just removing the rubble.

What would be a good way to make the tunnels areas NON-USABLE?

#3 IIRC, Israel is currently flooding the deeper tunnels with sea water.

I'm wondering how the pumping operation is doing so far?

#4 I like flooding, but blowing the tunnels could create a large cavern with weak support - continuing rockfalls. Depending on the rock material.

#5 I'm starting to wonder whether the IDF will find even half of the tunnels. There are just so many!

#6 I suspect they're using LIDAR and other ground penetrating technologies.

#7 Flooding is the way to go!

#8 Surely Netanyahoo [indirectly] approved of those tunnels.
