1. Quick as a flash
Sammy ,   Newcastle   (10.20.14)
Hamas are back to building the Tunnels for the next round and to line the pockets of the Hamas Elite with Tunnel Revenues Think about it Why should Hamas ever want to relinquish their Tunnel Trade VOLUNTARILY when it nets them BILLIONS - with no one..not the UN, not the EU donors wanting to 'INTERFERE!!!'. A cessation of the blockade would lose the elite BILLIONS and would loosen their choking control of Gaza....Anywhere else this would be called ORGANISED CRIME on a NATIONAL SCALE against the Gazan people....yet the world simply looks away And meanwhile, tens of thousands of Gazans live in the rubble of Hamas last escapade, poverty stricken, with no hope of anything different, just more of the shameful and disgraceful same
2. Flood All Tunnels With SEA WATER
(10.20.14)
Load up tanker's from the Med, then search out tunnels and DROWN THE VERRMIN!!! STEP UP BLOCKADE, And ANNEX ALL OF Judea and Samaria Now!!!
3. Who is surprised?
Avi L.   (10.20.14)
The politicos didn't want to end it, so the Hamas is going on. Who's guilty?
4. Sure, let's send them cement
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (10.20.14)
Let's send them construction materials as well. Daylight madness to think that construction materials would be used for anything except building new villas for the Hamas "elite" and shoring up existing tunnels and digging new ones. It really is time to put Gaza out of the terror business, once and for all. We could start by turning out the lights in Gaza and stop supplying them with gasoline and home heating fuel. We should also cut off all humanitarian aid. Let the Qataris coax Egypt into opening its border with Gaza. Good luck with that one.
5. Rebuilding Gaza ?
Gabe ,   Canada   (10.20.14)
No delivery of building materials until tunnels are destroyed by Hamas ! It is time to stop pussyfooting with them.
6. Options.
Gabe ,   Canada   (10.20.14)
Nahal Oz sewers will be easy to connect. Sea water can also be connected to their networks. There are many more solutions to the tunnel mania.
7. They just want to be our friends...
Freedom ,   Haifa, Israel   (10.20.14)
They rebuilt their tunnels because they love the Jews and want to surprise them with flowers and kisses...
8. Hamas Is A Glutton For Punishment
Ron ,   Seattle USA   (10.20.14)
9. Oh, dear!
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (10.20.14)
I do believe that reconstructing of tunnels is a violation of the agreed terms of the cease-fire. Hope the IDF starts pounding Gaza nonstop. Put an end to that vile, disgusting cancer in our midst. At a minimum, cut off all humanitarian aid; cut of all electricity; cut off all supplies of home heating fuel and gasoline. Let them eat tunnel dirt. Let them drink urine. That is far more than they deserve.
10. Let them do whatever
arne ,   chicago usa   (10.20.14)
they want, only let them know if and when they start another war they will suffer 10 times more then they did this time.Furthermore, this is another good reason to hold up on any deal Abbas is hoping to make.
11. they are digging their own
arne ,   chicago usa   (10.20.14)
GRAVES
12. Not surprising at all, seeing as King Bibi the Weak
A ,   Belgium   (10.20.14)
didn't have the "kloten" to destroy Hamas completely as logically should have been done. But treating terrorist chief Abbas's wife and Hyena's daughter in Israeli hospitals is VERY important for his image. Hope he kept his "we will do what we must to protect our citizens" speech from the last operation, especially now that some of the towns and kibbutzim near gaza are deserted, as he is going to have make the same sad, unconvincing speech again. Moshe Feiglin for PM now!
13. Hamas admits rebuilding tunnels
LION OF JUDAH ,   QUDS ALYAHUD   (10.20.14)
The Israeli leaders are all wimps and licking hamas and the Jew haters asses. Why on earth Israel is supplying cement and others things to Gaza. Let Israel to supply Gaza with Jewish Khara (Kaki) or in English called SHIT
14. When their tunnels will reach Tel Aviv
Moshe   (10.20.14)
that's when the Defense Minister and Prime Minister will give a hoot. Until then, as long as they'll only fire deadly rockets onto southern Israel, the government will close their eyes and ears and make belief they don't exist.
15. Israel government become more and more apathetic
Moshe   (10.20.14)
towards its citizens. Just yesterday they reported that IDF soldiers patrolling borders unprotected and now they're closing their eyes to new Hamas tunnels. Time to throw this government down and get leaders who care about its citizens first before they care about the UN and US
16. yaalon
mark   (10.20.14)
I have great regard for boogie yaalon who is avery capable military general. However, he has been politically influenced by bibi, who on his own is very insecure and afraid so is paralysed into inaction. Widening the fishing zone for hamas will lead to sea terror and commandos on the beaches. Hamas brags about redigging the tunnels. Who are you kidding yaalon?? BIBi did not even want to attack the tunnels, he ran after a ceasefire faster than hamas. So his story is told and he is a coward like olmert, same stuff. Contrary to your assertions, if you leave one front unfiinished, it will come back on you as the nazis found when they did not finish off britain in world war ll. And finishing off hamas does not man reoccupation. Yaalon, on the hamas front, you are dead wrong.
17. BOMB NOW!!!!! DONT WAIT!!!!!! BOMB NOW!!!!!
shadoil79 ,   Jerusalem   (10.20.14)
18. Sarah B . . .
Ralph ,   Ekatahuna NZ   (10.20.14)
No power ! No gas ! Good lord Sarah. what are you thinking of . . this could cause them a lot of stress and psychological damage . . naughty girl, you should know better than to try and prevent the "peace" loving Hamas from attacking and killing Israelis. Didn't you ever learn at school that you get brownie points for killing an Israeli . . really Sarah, you should know better !
19. DESTROY "islam"-"hamas" NOW!
Sjoerd van der Velde ,   Hoorn, Holland   (10.20.14)
20. #14 you are wrong
(10.20.14)
When Hamas tunnels reach Tel Aviv, Gantz will say IDF can't win, Plotzker will write how Hamas are heroic for digging so well, Yaalon will curse Bennet, and Netanyahu will say Israel needs to take measured steps rather than victory.
21. Gaza
TELH ,   Perth Australia   (10.21.14)
Run a 6 inch pipe from sewerage treatment plant & start pumping raw sewage.
22. 'humanitarian ceasefire' ?
Danny ,   London England   (10.21.14)
For the media it was a humanitarian ceasefire. For Hamas it was the time to start rebuilding their terror tunnels.The world is paying to rebuild Gaza while keeping Hamas terrorists in power, the false humaniatrianism of the 'civilised world'.
