1. Yeah right !!!
Mike ,   RKDH   (03.14.15)
I'm quite sure that Israel will rise to the challenge. RKDH
2. Naval forces
Adam ,   Canada   (03.14.15)
The title made me think that the Palestinians are building submarines.
3. Hi tech stuff

will have to be employed to win this Let the IDF brains work it out and hopefully they will get the funding to do the job
4. Retaliation would be 1000 to 1. Don't try it.

Is Hamas that stupid? I guess we'll just have to wait and find out. But with all their heavy construction along the border, maybe they plan a combined marine and tunnel assault. If they do, I have absolutely no pity for the thousands of Gazans who will perish in the retribution that will be handed out. So let's see if Hamas is really as stupid as they appear. The next attack on Israel will result in Gaza being carpet bombed back into the stone age and having Israel annex the region to take total control of the situation. Egypt will back Israel. Hamas is about to commit suicide. Too bad so many Gazans will have to pay for it.
5. Fishman is completely out of his league in military matters

In politics he can fake and spin as much as he wants but when it comes to security one must be a seasoned expert which Fishman obviously isn't.
6. interesting

A few years ago, there was no fence, Jews and Gazan Arabs worked together and all of Gaza was patrolled by two reserve battalions. Now Gaza holds a huge army and poses a strategic threat to Israel, the order of IDF forces surrounding Gaza has increased a lot, and we all saw how the two Hamas commandos attacked an IDF tank in the leaked video. Don't forget that Herzog and Livni helped Hamas gain power, and Netanyahu tried to prevent it.
7. Sweet Herpoc would deter them with "intime talks"

8. Oh, please!
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (03.15.15)
Two terrorists with a snorkel. Yeah, real tough. Bring it on, Hamas. Send your "naval commandos." Didn't go so well for the last five hundred glorious terrorists, did it? Bring it on. Sharks need to eat, too. We'll send you whatever is left once the sharks do their thing. Which is far more than you have ever done for us. Of course ... sometimes, sharks don't leave anything behind. Oh dear. Deal with it. Bring it on. We will dispatch you to your Islamic greater reward.
9. To: Adam at No. 2
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (03.15.15)
No, more like row, row, row your boat. The idiots would probably reinforce their vessels with concrete, given half the chance. In the meantime, shoring up tunnels and building newer and grander villas for Hamas "elite" is far more important than building homes for Gazans. Sick and depraved -- but that would describe Hamas to a T.
