I give him points for pursuing a course of action that could in theory solve most of the issue.

Anything else just puts them back in the same spot in a few years. Something has to change the mindset.

Look on the bright side. they were likely Hamas there to intercept the aid.

This is like the Orlando Police taking 2.5 years to occupy my back yard. It's at most 25 miles long and 12 miles wide. Geez, take it over already.

I was thinking the same thing. But I dont know anything about war tactics.

But, just start at the top, link arms, and walk down, checking every person. (I know, I know, much to simple thinking)

@jon-nyc Have a giant X-ray machine like at the airports.

That doesn’t eliminate Hamas. It eliminates members of Hamas (or non-members) who happen to be armed at the moment.

It’s a conundrum
