Winter Blues


I got the winter flu and feel down. I almost did no work the last week. The war is too long, the media is overflowing with anti-Jewish hate. HaAretz and X are disgusting. Many reserve soldiers have been in Gaza for two months. 

I am planning the drainage system of a farm in Hemed, near the airport, and the internet has no information on rainfall intensity. Before this war, such data was available. Now it has disappeared. I feel a change in the internet. 

Much in the media is fake. The pic above is, they write, a tunnel shaft. It could be a rainfall drainage facility. They say the army is preparing the flooding of the tunnels in Gaza, but the pics in the media are unconvincing for this professional. The infrastructure of Gaza city must be broken and leaking. The papers say the filling the tunnels may take weeks and endanger aquifer quality. If really there are 500 km tunnels, we need 500,000 cu.m. seawater or somewhat less. But it implausible that HAMAS had excavated manually such volume of earth and sand. It is amazing that Gazans are not escaping by sea or by land to Egypt. Their Arab brothers may be shooting them on sight.  And in Gaza they are fed by the UN forever. American commenters say that the 30,000 strong HAMAS is largely intact. It has not surrendered and is fighting.
