Hamas says it continues to build tunnels to attack Israel

Source: WBAY, ABC affiliate in Green Bay, WI

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) — A senior leader of Hamas, the Islamic militant group that rules Gaza, says its gunmen continue to build attack tunnels into Israel.

Ismail Haniyeh said Friday that militants dig tunnels and test rockets to attack Israel “every day.”

He spoke at the funeral of 7 militants who died this week when a tunnel from Gaza to Israel collapsed while they were repairing it.

The leaders of the Palestinians have let them down hoping their constituents will continue to blame Israel. hamas continuing to act that terrorists isn't a surprise to anyone with a brain.

to hear that there is a war being fought over a foreign occupation in which both sides appear to be using (albeit, unsuccessfully) human shields.

Thank you for letting the world know.

Oh, will the respective leaders of BOTH sides be placed side by side in the dock to answer for their violations of international law and the rules of war any time soon?

Just wondering.

so they will still have enough to build homes for people even after all the materials they use for the tunnels to attack Israel. Have to say, the residents of Gaza sure are lucky to have Hamas there taking care of them. (not entirely luck, of course, since they elected them).
