Gaza – The Islamic Jihad claims that it has already started rebuilding tunnels in Gaza, taking an Al-Jazeera reporter on a tour of one of its new underground constructions in a video translated by MEMRI.

An Islamic Jihad operative told the Qatar-owned network that it began rebuilding tunnels “the day the war ended in Gaza.”
It could not be verified if the tunnel in the Al-Jazeera clip is indeed new, however, the Islamic Jihad claim gives backing to comments made by a senior Israeli diplomatic source on Sunday.
The source told reporters that, just two weeks after Operation Protective Edge ended with an Egyptian-brokered truce, Hamas is already working to restore the terrorist tunnels in Gaza, as well as to build up its rocket manufacturing capabilities.
The discovery of attack tunnels leading from Gaza into communities in southern Israel was a main impetus behind Israel’s decision to launch a ground incursion into the Strip in July.
The IDF destroyed more than 30 tunnels during the operation.

I guess Israel will need to finish the job, once and for all.
Maybe during the time the world is busy trying to eliminate ISIS would be a good time to eliminate the gaza branch!
Of course the UN and US will turn a blind eye. Because apparently terror doesn’t count when it’s aimed at Israel.
Now is the time to finish off hamas, as hamas is isolated and will not receive any support from its neighbors who are any waiting for Israel to do its “dirty”work.
This window is open for Israel NOW,BUT CAN CLOSE QUICKLY if Israel procastinates any longer
And this is the real reason they want the $550 million supposedly for ‘humanitarian aid’.
