      I love the Israeli photos of WD-40 cans… as if a hospital wouldn’t use that.

      I got a can in my garage right now. Perhaps, there is a Hamas tunnel there.

        Heck, it’s Gaza, I wouldn’t be surprised to find a gun or two hidden anywhere.

        Though hiding guns right next to an MRI machine seems like a bit of a problem if you ever want to turn the MRI machine on.

          It’s an active war zone. If someone comes in armed and injured, I assume they strip them. Then some poor janitor or orderly has to play makeshift armory guard until they can figure out the proper way to dispose of grenades and transfer weapons.

          Why do you need to turn the MRI machine if you kill them first?

            I’m saying it’s kind of implausible that those guns were stored there to begin with.

        Better bomb the whole block and bulldoze everything to make sure!

        That part isn’t crazy, it’s a pretty common case lube. You rub down higher caliber ammunition with light lube to prevent case jams which are common on things like dushkas.

          Also, you can use it for any number of applications around the house including squeaky doors.

            For sure. My point was that including it with weapons isn’t crazy it could actually have came from a fighter. It’s just way more likely it was taken from a downed combatant and seized so they don’t have access to it during treatment like every other combat clinic rather than some a elaborate stashhouse Israel claims it to be.

            It’s not a statement in support if either position and to be clear I’m fairly sure Israel is lying because they have a track record of just that.

              Fair enough.

              It seems absurd that this is Israel’s evidence of SECRET COBRA TERRORIST LAIR by Hamas.

                It is very very weak evidence for a place they claimed was a centre of gravity not a week ago while claiming they know at least some of it’s hidden structure.

                  They are show casing some tunnels now but they were sealed off with concrete… so Hamas were not using the tunnels?

                  How can this be a headquarters or “centre of gravity” if its cut off from everything?

                    Those tunnels are known to have been there, everyone knew there were a few from past conflicts but them being sealed and clearly not hundreds of miles in span kinda ruins their bullshit talking points.

      Keeping metal near a MRI machine?

      That is the big oddity.

          I mean, the machine has likely been off for at least a week. Which means it is a big hunk of metal in a reinforced room. Sounds like the kind of “last stand” that requires destruction of significant parts of the hospital.

      Yeah the mri magnet is always on, 24/7, you literally can’t store them there. I assume when they lost electricity they must have quenched the magnet (released all the helium that keeps the coils in a super cooled super conducting state). That’s the only way to actually turn it off. Very expensive and time consuming to get going again after that too. If those were in the room before the mri magnet was quenched, well, they wouldn’t be very useful as guns any more, and the mri machine would probably be totaled too. So most likely any metal in that room would only have been put there recently. Go look up mri safety videos if you wanna see what happens when you bring metal into the room.
