IDF blows up Hizbullah bunker near border
2006-08-27
The IDF has blown up a Hizbullah bunker, uncovered 400 meters from the northern border near Rosh Hanikra.

Deputy Commander of the Golani Brigade, Lieutenant General Gasam Alian, said that "this is a bunker that sprawls on the ground two kilometers with shooting positions of molded concrete." He added that the bunker was advanced and connected to telephone lines. (Hanan Greenberg)

Drat! I thought it might be something new offered by the local escort service.

#6  Some clown (not on this site) who didn't bother to read my work carefully called my suggestion that Hezbos intended in part to wage fixed position warfare "rubbage." Not sure what "rubbage" is; it might be a close relative of the root "ramps" that's popular in West Virginia.

Anyway, long story short, my assumptions proved correct. The Hezbos now wish to fight using a combination of guerrilla tactics where and when it suits them, and also bunkered-down, fix-position warfare, using elaborate underground networks conveniently located adjacent to UN posts and civilian areas. The latter of course provides MSM with lots and lots of pictures of rag dolls and rubber duckies among the pile of concrete, dead bodies, and loads of rubbish.

#5  I thought Israel had side-scanning radar satellite capability. If not, we had better begin sharing (properly de-rezzed) imaging with them right away.

#1  I'm sure the UN troops would have found it and done the same. Of course that is if the Lebanese military didn't beat them to it.

Ha!
