There's no MAY, you did it, you absolutely created a major problem. These guys will not be able to continue in their current capacity either with this unit or, any other organization that is involved in any clandestine activities. You ruined the career of several serviceman so, who's career at the White House Press Office should be tarred and exposed?

Interesting how Democratic Presidents seem to be prone to this. Obama did it once and also exposed the DevGru platoon that took down Bin Laden to a mission with local forces that ended up in all of them getting killed.

Let's move on, please

This video is several years old, is it not?

UNRWA warning: If we do not get fuel urgently, we will be forced to halt our operations in the #GazaStrip as of tomorrow night

UN agency says its #Gaza operation will end tomorrow 'if we don't get fuel'

oh my

Israel Defense Forces @IDF
These fuel tanks are inside Gaza.

They contain more than 500,000 liters of fuel.

Ask Hamas if you can have some.

Here's a thought on the importance of fuel in gaza:

quote:

Security source: When the power goes, Hamas will be forced out of the tunnels

"Official says without power, the ventilation systems in Hamas' tunnels won't work and leaders will be forced to leave tunnels or suffocate."

Hamas fears that in the coming days, the Gaza Strip will run out of fuel and there will be no electricity, which will cause the ventilation systems in the tunnels dug under the enclave to shut down, a security official told Walla today (Tuesday).

in some of the pictures of the tunnels you can see cables running along the walls

Cutting all the cables they can reach would probably make things difficult in the tunnels

and finding any generators (and destroying them) that are powering the tunnels

some other ideas:

generating loud low frequency noise and transmitting it into the tunnels. Noise would reverberate strongly in the narrow tunnels

pumping a bright colored gas (orange perhaps) into the tunnels and observing where the gas appears on the ground surface to identify tunnel entrances

I'll say one thing. If there are any non-combatants left in Northern Gaza when Israel decides to completely level the place, it isn't because Israel didn't give them enough time to get out.

Should use something like this to take out the tunnels.

I don't trust any figure coming from Gaza.
It's exponentially exaggerated.

That's a good idea. Find a physics student within IDF and have them work to find the resonant frequency and just crank up the volume.

Extra points if they play acid metal super- positioned on the speakers with the resonant tone.

You have to commend their good spirits despite dealing with the scum of the Earth. I'm sure they were quite surprised.

Earlier, I had suggested lighting a match after pumping the tunnels full of gasoline or Methane without the mercaptan (the rotten egg smell.) The disadvantages to both of these ideas.

But I got to thinking about the possibility of pumping the tunnels full of hydrogen, and then lighting a match of course.

Hydrogen has no odor to warn the savages. Hydrogen has no residual byproducts other than a little water vapor. Hydrogen has very small molecules (H2) that slip through very small spaces insuring good penetration. Hydrogen has guaranteed 100% combustion. Hydrogen is dirt cheap.

AND saving the best for last....

....Hydrogen has a zero carbon foot print.

Make the tunnels the Hindenburg.

Noah Schaffer and his wife Kelly were tearing down and ripping up posters in New York City of Israelis (including children) who were missing and presumed taken hostage by Hamas

then Noah's Jewish dad (and Noah's employer) found out about it

Noah’s dad Eric Schaffer informed his staff at his UX company Human Factors International in an email that he placed his son, an executive strategist at the firm, on unpaid leave for four months, the Daily Mail reported. 'As has been noted, Noah is my son. He is not an antisemite nor a supporter of Hamas. I can attest that he has not acted this way at any time during his whole life,' the elder Schafer wrote, according to the outlet.

'He now understands that his actions were reprehensible, he is deeply sorry and regretful. HFI’s senior management team and I personally, in no way condone his actions today. We are placing Noah on unpaid leave for the next four months. This will give him time to learn more about his Jewish family history, reflect deeply, and make amends. And after this time we will review if he can rejoin the company.'

So he did it because his wife told him to? Apparently dad doesn't know his son very well.

The news is saying the Biden administration is asking Israel to delay the ground offensive until the US can better defend the US bases in the area which have been undergoing attacks.

WTF??? Did they not learn anything from the marine bombing in Lebanon airport from a long time ago? Why put personnel somewhere and then require a time out so you can defend them?

Hydrogen is way too light. That would be like trying to pour water into an upside down bucket. Methane is heavier than air and would flow down into the tunnels.
