Nope...
Flooding the tunnels gives Ham Ass plenty of time to get the fuck out of said tunnels before they drown.
If they're dumb enough to hang around as the tunnels fill up with water thats their problem.

How do you know the Hamas fighters would have time to get the captives out?
They might be holding them in the lowest part of the tunnel system which could quickly fill up with water and drown everybody..

With all the publicity of the intended flooding of the tunnels, they have time to get them out.

The fact is, we DO know. We know you're promoting lies and propaganda.

The ONLY ones attempting genocide is "Palestine"

Really Sunni Man ?

Tell us what the chant, "from the river to the sea" means. Try not to lie

The only reason they're in there is to commit acts of terror. "Neutralizing" them is acceptable. In fact, required

That's weird because right now Israel's land is being used to rain down slaughter on civilians in Gaza. So by your logic...

All those civilians would be alive today if you had only voted for Trump. Same with all those people in Ukraine.

Are you proud of yourself?

Get them out to where? ..

There are a hell of a lot of 'wheres' outside of those tunnels in Gaza

This has to be the dumbest thought process I've ever heard.

You can disagree all you want but you know damn well most Palestinians are not in those tunnels. So obviously most Palestinians find someplace to be that is not inside a tunnel. It stands to reason that Israelis held hostage do not have to be held hostage inside a tunnel either.

Now if you have an argument that disputes that go for it.

Going outside would be suicide.The Israeli IDF is blasting and bombing everything that moves above ground.

No they aren't. They are going after Hamas, Hamas weapons, and ammo dumps

According to the IDF generals talking on TV the Hamas freedom fighters are hiding in the tunnels.
Besides where else could they hide?
As part of their ongoing genocide on the Palestinian people. The Israel's are blasting every building into rubble.

You might want to watch news.
The Israeli's are flatting the entire city of Gaza.

Miles and miles of tunnels. The water is going to take forever to fill up the entire system.

That depends on how fast the water is being pumped into the tunnels if it's enough volume it could fill the tunnels somewhat fast. But Hamas would still have enough time to get out of the tunnels unless they were too scared to show their face.

Both freedom fighters. So are the thousands of Hamas terrorists.

You the ones Hamas has used.

There is nothing new about that; that's what we did to the Germans in World War Two. It's a valid tactic to destroy whatever is valuable to your enemy. War is not nice especially urban combat which is the nastiest of all fighting. There is no way that an army can help but kill civilians when they're fighting in cities. The civilians have to get out of the way.

That and $3.00 will get you a coffee at Starbucks...

Meaning that the prospect of war crimes focused upon this tunnel flooding is worth zero... bopkess... goat $hit.

I don't think the Israelis are worried in the slightest.

Flood the damned things.... but mix-in a bit of aviation-fuel... and light-up the tunnel interior once it's filled-up a foot or two.
