      This makes more sense than an IED. WW2 UXO is still a problem in Europe 80-ish years later. I remember a bulldozer getting blown up sometime around 2005 while building a new autobahn.

        The IED makes a lot of sense because Israeli bulldozers and excavators are actively destroying Palestinian homes in their yellow line area during the “ceasefire”.

        So if there was an IED buried there in advance then they would have tripped it for sure.

          The point I was trying to make is that the IDF has dropped so much ordinance on the Gaza strip that there are going to be UXO events for at least 100 years.

    This is probably just an unexploded bomb. I don’t know why you expect that you can drive a bulldozer all over a place you’ve been bombing without getting blown the fuck up. This is the stupidest shit ever. This is like bombing your own hostages, and then complaining that their bodies can’t be returned. Wait a minute. Hold on. Hold on. I’m starting to pick up on a pattern here. I think I’m getting something.
