Israel Defense Forces (IDF) Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi suggested Tuesday that it might be a “good idea” to flood the Hamas terror tunnels in Gaza with seawater, commenting on a report in the Wall Street Journal that Israel was thinking about it. The Journal report stated: “Israel has assembled a system of large pumps it could use to flood Hamas’s vast network of tunnels under the Gaza Strip with seawater, a tactic that could destroy the tunnels and drive the fighters from their underground refuge but also threaten Gaza’s water supply, U.S. officials said.”

Sounds ok to me. Since the slogan is 'River to the Sea' and the Israelis aren't moving, it's nice that they will simply BRING to sea to tHamas. Such thoughtful people, what a great compromise!

I have a better idea, very humane and sanitary. Push the building and street debris down the holes and followed so often with slurry. After 200 holes are partially sealed it will be very very hot down there.

fill the tunnels half full.. Also...pump bright colored smoke down the tunnels with a big fan to pressurize it...stray smoke will come out vents, entrances, exits,and dye the clothes,skin and hair of anyone inside at the time. Might make the smoke/dye bright green, Hamas seems to like that color, or sky blue...Israel like that color even better. Then issue a warning that electric cables will be made hot with the bare ends in the water. 1 hr warning.

Good idea. I was thinking of leveling everything in Gaza and making Israeli villages on the Gaza border as beachfront communities. A very long beachfront.

also...."Seven people were rounded up sentenced to death by hanging in a single day for “collaborating” with Israel, according to the Gaza Strip’s Hamas-run interior ministry." Hanging them from lightposts along the evacuation routes Israel has set aside for civilian safety.

Salt water is way too kind. My suggestion is raw sewage. Pump the tunnels full and seal the entrances. Let them stew in that!! Of course, a previous suggestion of gasoline and a match is also acceptable.

It's too bad that the Israelis can't get enough pig fat to fill the tunnels with that. No 72 virgins for any of the Hamas animals down in those tunnels, since muslims can't enter "paradise" being unclean -- covered in pig fat -- when they died!!!

"but also threaten Gaza’s water supply," - I don't think that is credible. If they have a water supply it shouldn't be open to the terrorist tunnels.

Of particular note, however, is a new revelation that Willis’ office reached out to the Democrats’ House Select Jan. 6 Committee to get information that could aid in her effort against Trump.
