#1 IMO, it would be easier to simply maintain better vigilance with the existing infrastructure. The intel and operation failures before and on October 7 need to be fixed.

#2 A kilometer wide security strip + vigilance will take you further than vigilance (h/t Al Capone).

#3 Hama will try to dig tunnels beneath the security strip[.

Something to think about.

#4 Why can we not be a good silent partner ?

Since the IDF is doing the fighting and dying, how about we let them find their own security solutions ?

#5 Why...

When did a politician ever not take credit for the work of others? Especially in an election year.

#6 Tunnels don’t work unless you control both ends. Tunneling is also highly detectable.

#7 No gaza. No west bank. palestinians can become citizens of israel IFF they reject sharia law.

#8 #7 No they can't. Arabs have a record of lying long before it was codified into their religion.

#9 It's not a Carthaginian solution. Check Egypt's wall with Gaza for insight.

#10 There are Arab citizens in Israel already. I made a short visit there on a ship long ago and coordinated shore patrol at a USO for several days. What I saw with respect to Arab-Israeli relations was a mixed bag. Some acted like Israeli citizens; some acted like militant Arabs. Absorbing the thoroughly radicalized West Bank and Gaza crowd in one gulp is something that no government in the world is willing to do including Iran.
