A little debris in the entrance and pour over that and you can seal that entrance, but cave filling is next to impossible |

Worthy to note:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jihad#Evolution_of_the_term_in_Islamic_jurisprudence Islamic theologian Abu Abdullah al-Muhajir has been identified as the key theorist and ideologue behind modern jihadist violence.[204] His theological and legal justifications influenced Abu Musab al-Zarqawi of al-Qaeda as well as several jihadi terrorist groups, including ISIS.[204] Zarqawi used a manuscript of al-Muhajir's ideas at AQI training camps that were later deployed by ISIS, referred to as The Jurisprudence of Jihad or The Jurisprudence of Blood.[204][205][206]
The book has been described as rationalising "the murder of non-combatants" by The Guardian's Mark Towsend, citing Salah al-Ansari of Quilliam, who notes: "There is a startling lack of study and concern regarding this abhorrent and dangerous text [The Jurisprudence of Blood] in almost all Western and Arab scholarship".[205] Charlie Winter of The Atlantic describes it as a "theological playbook used to justify the group's abhorrent acts".[204] He states: Ranging from ruminations on the merits of beheading, torturing, or burning prisoners to thoughts on assassination, siege warfare, and the use of biological weapons, Muhajir's intellectual legacy is a crucial component of the literary corpus of ISIS—and, indeed, whatever comes after it—a way to render practically anything permissible, provided, that is, it can be spun as beneficial to the jihad. [...] According to Muhajir, committing suicide to kill people is not only a theologically sound act, but a commendable one, too, something to be cherished and celebrated regardless of its outcome. [...] neither Zarqawi nor his inheritors have looked back, liberally using Muhajir's work to normalize the use of suicide tactics in the time since, such that they have become the single most important military and terrorist method—defensive or offensive—used by ISIS today. The way that Muhajir theorized it was simple—he offered up a theological fix that allows any who desire it to sidestep the Koranic injunctions against suicide.[204] Psychologist Chris E. Stout also discusses the al Muhajir-inspired text in his book, Terrorism, Political Violence, and Extremism. He assesses that jihadists regard their actions as being "for the greater good"; that they are in a "weakened in the earth" situation that renders terrorism a valid means of solution.[206] |

My father never wanted to be in them in Vietnam and my former neighbor mentioned it once regarding his Vietnam experience. I'd just be pumping it full of phosphine and claim I was killing the bugs. Of course said chemical was a gas used in WWI (primarily phosgene) but phosphine is used quite frequently today for pest control. |

Biblical proportions type flood to fill them. Lot less to flush them out but still a lot of water. If you look at the pics they have posted it's not some crawl around in type tunnel.

With MOAB’s cousin, the MOP! View Quote But even if they carpet bomb the place it's still about the tunnels. Not an expert but do the the Israelis have a way to deploy a MOP if they had one/some? They do have C130s so one might think delivering a MOAB or something like a MOAB might be within reach even if mods were required to the aircraft. According to the I-net the MOAB has a blast radius of one mile. So about equal to a Davy Crockett which we don't have anymore. No radiation with the same effect would be a plus. You can close a lot of access points and air vents with that kind of tool. Clearly the MOAB will not be effective on deep reinforced structures but a tunnel system loses some of it's attractiveness if you can't maintain access, risk having people and material trapped, etc. Dropping a couple would likely cause some behavior modification for the enemy on several levels. Sure would for me. Naturally any enemy defensive positions and combatants on the surface in that one mile radius are going to be impacted. Back in the day the MOAB only cost about $200K each to build so kind of cheap by todays standards. Let's say $1million per copy in today dollars. SWAG is a single Merkava costs several times that. If we still have some I'm not sure what we would ever do with them but it's possible the technology is simple enough for the Israelis to build a very small number and deploy some of them. |

There are about a dozen from people who have an understanding of the issue. The one guy's Kurdish tunnels vid has been posted a couple of times. Somebody linked the Army's Subterranean Operations manual. It's not going to be easy to pump them full of water and gas. But for every post with info there's a dozen with "Tunnels?

Do what the ents did to isengard. Flood it. The ocean is right next door. Setup pumps, seal the entrances you pump into, and rev up a few pumper ships. You stop pumping when you don't see the water coming out anywhere new AND the water level doesn't go down when you quit pumping. Fill the entire complex. ETA: Get a nuclear powered ship, hook it up, and just let it rip. You really don't even need to fill 100% of the tunnels. You just need to make it useless, and leave the combatants in there till there's no way they aren't room-temperature. |

We don't even know where all the entrances to the DC Metro are anymore, but the IDF is supposed to locate and secure every spider hole leading into a 300 mile labyrinth in an enemy area they don't control?
Then they are supposed to pump trillions of gallons of water into it, and hope that hundreds of miles of tunnels under the strip that has a 25 mile coastline doesn't have any sort of drainage mechanism. Then maybe they can put plastic sheeting up and run the exhaust pipe of a Toyota Camry into the mix for the next 45 years or so. Keep them coming guys, Im overseas and haven't even started my day yet and this all pure gold. |

I don't get it. View Quote No matter where their hands are, US/Brit hands are up their ass using them as a sock puppet. It's WWE theater it doesn't have to make sense. Lol are you serious? Do you think Israel is an autonomous player who is really out there on the edge duking it out on their own? They are a farcical little abomination placed to destabilize the region. I still support them and fuck Hamas in the eye socket. |

And grind them down by attrition. That's expensive and bloody. View Quote Denying them the tunnels is hard. Especially when they're that numerous. This is Iwo x100. I wonder how much damage bunker busters can really do to the complex. I mean sure you might be able to hit important junctions and the like but that's a TON of tunnels. |
