No, it means the multi-million dollar tunnels Hamas has built	former9thward	Jul 2014	#7
How many Israeli civilians have been killed via those tunnels?	Orrex	Jul 2014	#8

If you think war is "murder" there is no point in discussing things.	former9thward	Jul 2014	#53
Deaths six decades in the past do not justify current-day murder	Orrex	Jul 2014	#55

I think the answer you're looking for is ZERO.	stranger81	Aug 2014	#85
maybe there's something I don't get about tunnels, but	jberryhill	Aug 2014	#79

Ha	jberryhill	Aug 2014	#82
Now DU is full of tunnel experts ....	former9thward	Aug 2014	#86
No, but South Korea and the US Border Patrol are	jberryhill	Aug 2014	#87
Fine, I'll wait until they post here.	former9thward	Aug 2014	#88

They did, did they?	jberryhill	Aug 2014	#96
No, I don't mourn Hamas, tunnel demolition expert.	former9thward	Aug 2014	#97

Only when the tunnel entrances are hidden in those places	hack89	Jul 2014	#6
The exits are supposedly in Israel. They could handle it from that end with very little death toll.	jwirr	Jul 2014	#9
They are not built with exits in Israel	hack89	Jul 2014	#13
how many times have they been used and what's the civilian death toll?	frylock	Jul 2014	#14
Funny how that question never gets answered	Orrex	Jul 2014	#16
i posted yesterday that "terror tunnels" are the new "rape rooms"	frylock	Jul 2014	#18
Five israeli sodiers, at least.	Scootaloo	Jul 2014	#52
A military invasion and assault sometimes results in deaths among the invaders	Orrex	Jul 2014	#57
I do not have access to Hamas war plans	hack89	Jul 2014	#19
so the answer is ZERO..	frylock	Jul 2014	#21
So you know Hamas' long range plans?	hack89	Jul 2014	#23
i don't. do you?	frylock	Jul 2014	#34
Killing as many Israelis has always been their intention	hack89	Jul 2014	#40
and we circle back to the civilian death toll..	frylock	Jul 2014	#44
Hamas started a war.	hack89	Jul 2014	#45
no, they didn't..	frylock	Jul 2014	#47

Have you seen pictures of the tunnels?	Orrex	Jul 2014	#41

If Israel can claim self defense against a population that it is brutalizing and severely oppressing	cpwm17	Jul 2014	#10
The West Bank Palestinian people and their Gov. asked Hamas to accept ceasefire & were also refused.	Sunlei	Jul 2014	#12
Israel has refused cease-fire proposals from both Hamas and John Kerry	cpwm17	Jul 2014	#15
Once ground troops went in the hamas"Gov" was toast. They had their chances to accept ceasefire.	Sunlei	Jul 2014	#17
It's obvious who the terrorists are in this conflict	cpwm17	Jul 2014	#20
no other country supports hamas either. not even their neighbor egypt will allow woman/childen in.	Sunlei	Jul 2014	#22
Egypt has a brutal, secular dictatorship which is an enemy of the Palestinians	cpwm17	Jul 2014	#24
So why doesn't Iran, Lebanon, Jordan, Baharain, etc	IronGate	Jul 2014	#28
There are huge numbers of Palestinians outside of Palestine	cpwm17	Jul 2014	#32
Then kick the terror org Hamas out of the govt	IronGate	Jul 2014	#33
Regardless of what the Palestinians do	cpwm17	Jul 2014	#42
Well, you're right about that, it would be the terrorist org Hamas.`	IronGate	Jul 2014	#27
I know your view	cpwm17	Jul 2014	#29
I'm just as rational as you are, you just don't like my stance on Israel.	IronGate	Jul 2014	#31
I think it is like religion	cpwm17	Jul 2014	#36
It goes both ways.	IronGate	Jul 2014	#37
Hamas tunnels and Hamas 'gov'. Then the west bank Pal. gov can govern. the Gaza strip.	Sunlei	Jul 2014	#11
They sure made some cool tunnels.	candelista	Jul 2014	#25
Much better use than for something foolish like	COLGATE4	Jul 2014	#26
Nice of Israel to bomb the shit out of all of those schools and houses then.	Orrex	Jul 2014	#38
You mean like all the "building supplies" that went	COLGATE4	Jul 2014	#60
Maybe Israel should get out of Gaza and stop slaughtering Palestinian civilians	Orrex	Jul 2014	#63
Maybe the terror org Hamas should stop lobbing rockets into Israel?	IronGate	Jul 2014	#65
If they posed an equal threat of lethality, then that would make sense	Orrex	Jul 2014	#66
Maybe Hamas should stop attacking Israelis. nt	COLGATE4	Jul 2014	#69
You find a dozen dead Israelis unacceptable	Orrex	Jul 2014	#72
No the progressive mindset say that it's unacceptable	COLGATE4	Jul 2014	#73
You forgive Israel everything. Why?	Orrex	Jul 2014	#74
A pox on both their houses.	kwassa	Jul 2014	#75

Yes, infrastructure that would be bombed to pieces	stranger81	Aug 2014	#84
Wrong.	IronGate	Aug 2014	#90
Right, because Israel never bombed Gaza before these tunnels were built.	stranger81	Aug 2014	#93
