The 20 terror targets struck by Israeli air force in Gaza, include another tunnel

Among the 20 targets, Israel jets attacked Wednesday – in the wake of a Palestinian double-missile attack on Israeli cities – were a Hamas terror tunnel and a rocket team. DEBKAfile: The Palestinians anticipated Israel’s reprisal and evacuated personnel from their bases in good time. The IDF had known about the tunnel for months, as the twin to the one destroyed last week when it was already 200m inside Israel. Israel’s top-level officials decided not to demolish both tunnels at the same time so as not to trigger an extreme Hamas response. This restraint boomeranged early Wednesday with Palestinian missile attacks from Gaza on two of Israel’s four major cities – Beersheba in the south and Greater Tel Aviv on the coast. The Grad missiles were upgraded to carry extra-large explosive warheads at greater distances.

    Easy was to solve the tunnels. Dig into them, Place cameras and a few missiles on remote control. Wait for the varmints get close to X marks the spot. Press a button. And move on.

    TAKE OUT THE PEOPLE USING THE TUNNELS BY BURYING THEM IN THE TUNNEL AND THE SHIT WILL STOP REAL SOON.

    Or send a remotely control vehicle loaded with a few shit tons of explosives drive the vehicle to the beginning of the tunnel. Press a button.

    The better way is to fill the tunnels with sewage & cap off the
    Israel’s side with “smiling engraved”cement…

    “as not to trigger an extreme Hamas response”

    A lot of good that did you. Your defense based on luck is running out.

    There’s a lot of fancy talk but the reality is- You’re losing.
