I thought this was an interesting article about Gaza’s systems of tunnels which would help explain what the IDF are trying to get at.

@Noicant yes the photo op didn't really go down as planned Sad and might have blown the search for 'new office space' out of the water

As long as it's fact based no one should have an issue with what's posted on here. Looks like plenty of food for thought not just wild statements or throwing around of handy labels.

Gosh, this thread really went from an unmotivated neutral info sharing thread to let's throw hate left right and centre

Looking at the last several posts they are very much sharing information about Hamas!

Its difficult to ve positive about Hamas, I'm surprised that bothers you though!

Stomacharmeleon · 30/10/2023 17:46

'Throwing hate' Hmm

I just read that Hamas has an investment portfolio worth between 400 mill to 1 billion a chunk of assets in Turkey. The leader of hamas is estimated to have a net worth of between 4-5 million (in dollars).

It’s extraordinary.

Stolen from the people of Palestine. Hamas really have shafted their own people yet blame all the ills on Israel and keep the hatred alive. Its not in their interest to have a peace deal, they love the aid rolling in do that they can steal it.

They need to be removed to help the Palestinian people move forward.

Huh? Strange comment. I haven't seen anything like what you're claiming.

SovietSpy · 30/10/2023 17:56

Also surprised to see that sharing facts about Hamas operations and finances are ‘hate’.

Yeah I imagine they need somewhere to stay tbh!

I read an article in the Spectator suggesting that the Russians are most likely going to start worrying about the destabilisation of parts of Russia like Dagenstan. The hunt for Israelis through the airport and hotels is deeply disturbing. On the other hand it may be more of an opportunity to destabilise the west or have more american focus on the middle east than Europe.

https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/why-the-kremlin-will-fear-this-anti-semitic-mob-in-dagestan/

Putin may feel like having Hamas inside the tent pissing out is better then them standing outside pissing in.

Yes I suppose it all has the capability of destabilising many countries /states

On top of what you have posted the middle eastern states really could do without all this too. Not only is it bad for some states much needed tourism industries. It is hitting them straight away in the finance industry, people are more worried about investments. The stokemarkets have been showing this.

Hamas has ideas after Israel. Hopefully Israel wipe out the Hamas terrorists. Mamoud Al Sha... is a right madman

This is a religious war against all religions?

The ex Hamas leader said similar when he called all Jihad to rise a couple of weeks ago. Plus this was said somewhere in Hamas original charter too. It is an old school Islamic reference to something in the Quran. Islamic extremists believe this is there cause and all that.

Awful isn't it.

Then there's the problems in Russia extremists rampaging through the airport. Russia says external forces! Some extremist groups are popping up around the world.

I'm surprised Russia didn't claim it was a few stray Nazis over from Ukraine.

The WSJ has a map of Gaza tunnels identified by Israel as of 2014. Astonishing to think such an extensive network was mostly constructed by hand to avoid detection. https://www.wsj.com/livecoverage/israel-hamas-war-biden/card/map-shows-labyrinth-of-tunnels-made-by-hamas-under-gaza-identified-by-israel-IieNDixn5Bs78HeUi46v

I will tell my child not to consume manipulative, shitty poetry posted by someone who had not one word to say about the news of the massacre on October 7th. I will tell them every issue is complex, and anyone that wants them to get out a placard and doesn't encourage them to be measured and thoughtful, is not leading them down a good path.

Xenia · 01/11/2023 12:58

How Hamas is funded is interesting - they are like any terrorist group and have fingers in pies in all kinds of illegal activities.

Parker231 · 01/11/2023 13:14

Report from the Sky reporter, Alex Crawford that
“Gaza doctors tell us - like others have reiterated too - ‘this is a war on children’ with most of the dead being children or women and one child being killed an estimated every ten minutes”

Hate to think of what is happening in Gaza now. The hospitals can no longer cope with the numbers of injured and people are starving.

But do you condemn war crimes ?

This is a thread about the Gaza tunnels which you have delighted with your mawkish poem. But since you ask, yes I do obviously condemn war crimes. It's just very difficult to parse the deceit from the facts at the moment due to a small band of committed posters constantly filling the board with disinformation. I've hidden and unfollowed the rest of the board and threads for that reason, but this one seems to be more informative rather than propaganda-driven. So this will be my last reply to you.

Israel built the iron dome because they are constantly being bombed and having rockets fired at them from multiple sources, has it not occurred to people that had they not , they would have been annihilated by now?
