    And yet Hamas managed to erase any evidence of their supposed tunnel system completely? The IDF was claiming a day or two ago that Hamas concreted over and “ceramic’ed over” all the tunnels during the 3 days of the hospital siege.

    Yet the IDF could show no evidence of those covered up tunnels either.

      Well, if they were allowed to blast holes through everything they wanted, it wouldn’t be such a problem to find these tunnels quickly. Are you okay with that, or you rather wait while the IDF does a less destructive search of the hospital grounds?

        All they need to do is show freshly concreted over areas. But they couldn’t even do that. They showed nothing of the sort in the videos they’ve released of the basement.

          They will show fresh concerted areas and you will claim that’s not good enough, they need to dig it out and show tunnels. They will show tunnels, and you will claim that’s not good enough, they need to show rockets. They will show rockets, and you will claim that’s not good enough, they need to show terrorists. They will show terrorists, and that won’t be good enough because they need to show hostages. They will show hostages, and that won’t be good enough because it’s the IDF, and nothing they will show will ever be good enough.

            When they couldn’t show anything at all right off and instead several things that appeared to be propaganda and lies (to the point that even mainstream media is reporting on it), no, I won’t believe it.

            Them coming back days later to claim any of those is time enough for them to doctor up the claimed evidence.

            This is just standard propaganda making, the likes of which we saw all the time out of Russia, for example.
